perf hists: Fix determination of a callchain node's childlessness

2016-05-04T21:49:14+00:00

commit 909890355507e92bdaf648e73870f6b5df606da8 upstream.

The 4b3a3212233a ("perf hists browser: Support flat callchains") commit
over-aggressively tried to optimize callchain_node__init_have_children().

That lead to --tui mode not allowing to expand call chain elements if a
call chain element had only one parent. That's why --inverted callgraphs
looked halfway sane, but plain ones didn't.

Revert that individual optimization, it wasn't really related to the
rest of the commit.

perf hists browser: Fix dump to show correct callchain style

2016-05-04T21:49:13+00:00

commit 0c841c6c16f320704f75970bbe6a9800c53e6cf5 upstream.

The commit 8c430a348699 ("perf hists browser: Support folded
callchains") missed to update hist_browser__dump() so it always shows
graph-style callchains regardless of current setting.

To fix that, factor out callchain printing code and rename the existing
function which prints graph-style callchain.

perf hists browser: Only offer symbol scripting when a symbol is under the cursor

2016-05-04T21:49:13+00:00

commit c221acb0f970d3b80d72c812cda19c121acf5d52 upstream.

When this feature was introduced a check was made if there was a
resolved symbol under the cursor, it got lost in commit ea7cd5923309
("perf hists browser: Split popup menu actions - part 2"), reinstate it.

perf ui/tui: Print helpline message as is

2016-01-12T15:42:08+00:00

When a tip message contains a percent sign, it was treated printf format
specifier so broken string was printed like below.

  Tip: Limit to show entries above 577nly: perf report --percent-limit 5
                                   ^^^

As ui_browser__show receives format string, pass additional "%s" so that
the help (tip) message can be printed as is.

  Tip: Limit to show entries above 5% only: perf report --percent-limit 5

perf tools: Add overhead/overhead_children keys defaults via string

2016-01-08T15:58:58+00:00

We currently set 'overhead' and 'overhead_children' as default sort keys
within perf_hpp__init function by directly adding into the sort list.

This patch adds 'overhead' and 'overhead_children' in text form into
sort_keys and let them be added by standard sort dimension interface.

We need to eliminate dirrect sort_list additions to be able to add
support for hists specific sort keys.

perf tools: Skip dynamic fields not defined for current event

2016-01-06T23:11:12+00:00

When there are multiple events, each dynamic sort key is defined just
for one event.  In this case other events will always show "N/A" for
those fields.  But they are meaningless and consume precious screen
width.

Let's skip those undefined dynamic fields.

perf tui: Change default selection background color to yellow

2015-12-09T16:41:55+00:00

Boris reported that 'perf top' is unusable on his default 'black on
white' terminal, which uses (eye friendly) light-grey as a background
color.

The reason is that the TUI cursor for the current selection line uses
HE_COLORSET_SELECTED, and that has a default background color of
'lightgrey' - which is a common terminal background choice and thus
the colors conflict.

Use yellow as the background color instead: that should be an uncommon
terminal background, yet it's still ergonomic on both black and
white/grey terminals.

[ It would be a better solution to straight out detect color
  collisions and resolve them reasonably by converting them to RGB and
  calculating color space distances, but I was unable to find
  proper documentation for SLtt_get_color_object() to recover the
  current color scheme so I gave up ... Yellow works well enough. ]

perf hists browser: Fix segfault if use symbol filter in cmdline

2015-12-07T15:02:35+00:00

If feed perf a symbol filter in cmdline and the result is empty,
pressing 'Enter' in the hist browser causes crash:

 # ./perf report perf.data   <-- Common mistake for beginners

Then press 'Enter':

 perf: Segmentation fault
 -------- backtrace --------
 /home/wangnan/perf[0x53e578]
 /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x3545f)[0x7f76bafe045f]
 /home/wangnan/perf[0x539dd4]
 /home/wangnan/perf(perf_evlist__tui_browse_hists+0x96)[0x53d216]

 /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf4)[0x7f76bafccbd4]
 /home/wangnan/perf[0x4330d4]

This is because 'perf.data' is interpreted as a symbol filter, and the
result is empty, so selection is empty. However,
hist_browser__toggle_fold() forgets to check it.

This patch simply return false when selection is NULL.
