perf annotate: Rename source_line_percent to source_line_samples

2015-06-19T19:39:21+00:00

To better reflect the purpose of this struct, that is to hold
info about samples, its total number and is percentage.

perf annotate: Display total number of samples with --show-total-period

2015-06-19T19:39:18+00:00

To compare two records on an instruction base, with --show-total-period
option provided, display total number of samples that belong to a line
in assembly language.

New hot key 't' is introduced for 'perf annotate' TUI.

perf annotate: Allow annotation for decompressed kernel modules

2015-03-23T15:49:27+00:00

Decompressing kernel module file for objdump command if needed.
Annotation commands now display annotation for compressed kernel
modules.

perf annotate: Fix fallback to unparsed disassembler line

2015-03-05T18:27:28+00:00

When annotating source/disasm lines the perf tools parse the output of
objdump, trying to provide augmented output that allows navigating
jumps, calls, etc.

But when a line output by objdump can't be parsed the annotation code
falls back to just presenting the unparsed line.

When fixing a leak in the 0fb9f2aab738 commit ("perf annotate: Fix
memory leaks in LOCK handling") we failed to take that into account and
instead tried to free one of the data structures that should be freed
only when successfully allocated, oops, segfault.

There was a change in the way the objdump output for lock prefixed
instructions is formatted that lead the relevant parser to fail to grok
it.

At least RHEL7 works ok, but Fedora 20 segfaults.

Fix it by making the ins__delete() destructor work like the most basic
destructor: free().

Namely make it accept a NULL pointer and when handling it just do
nothing.

Further investigation is needed to figure out the nature of the objdump
output change so as to make the parser grok it.

perf annotate: Fix memory leaks in LOCK handling

2015-01-21T13:05:32+00:00

The lock prefix handling fails to free the strdup()'d name as well as
the fields allocated by the instruction parsing.

perf annotate: Handle ins parsing failures

2015-01-21T13:05:17+00:00

Don't use the ins's ->sncprintf() if the parsing failed.

For example, this fixes the display of "imul %edx".  Without this patch:

       |      imul   (null),(null)

After this patch:

       |      imul   %edx

perf callchain: Make get_srcline fall back to sym+offset

2014-11-24T21:03:47+00:00

When the source line is not found fall back to sym + offset.  This is
generally much more useful than a raw address.

For this we need to pass in the symbol from the caller.

For some callers it's awkward to compute, so we stay at the old
behaviour.
