perf header: Fixup reading of HEADER_NRCPUS feature

2015-10-22T21:37:49+00:00

commit caa470475d9b59eeff093ae650800d34612c4379 upstream.

The original patch introducing this header wrote the number of CPUs available
and online in one order and then swapped those values when reading, fix it.

Before:

  # perf record usleep 1
  # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus \(online\|avail\)'
  # nrcpus online : 4
  # nrcpus avail : 4
  # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
  # perf record usleep 1
  # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus \(online\|avail\)'
  # nrcpus online : 4
  # nrcpus avail : 3
  # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
  # perf record usleep 1
  # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus \(online\|avail\)'
  # nrcpus online : 4
  # nrcpus avail : 2

After the fix, bringing back the CPUs online:

  # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus \(online\|avail\)'
  # nrcpus online : 2
  # nrcpus avail : 4
  # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
  # perf record usleep 1
  # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus \(online\|avail\)'
  # nrcpus online : 3
  # nrcpus avail : 4
  # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
  # perf record usleep 1
  # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus \(online\|avail\)'
  # nrcpus online : 4
  # nrcpus avail : 4

perf tools: Handle failure case in trace_report()

2013-03-21T16:30:52+00:00

If pevent allocation in read_trace_init() fails, trace_report() will
return -1 and *ppevent is set to NULL.  Its callers should check this
case and handle it properly.

This is also a preparation for the removal of *die() calls.

perf evlist: Remove cpus and threads arguments from perf_evlist__new()

2013-03-15T16:06:01+00:00

It's almost always used with NULL for both arguments.  Get rid of the
arguments from the signature and use perf_evlist__set_maps() if needed.

perf tools: Fix calloc argument ordering

2013-02-06T21:09:28+00:00

A sweep of the kernel for regex "kcalloc(sizeof" turned up 2 reversed
args, fixed in commit d3d09e18203dba16a9dbdb2b4cc673d90748cdd1 ("EDAC:
Fix kcalloc argument order") and also fixed in the networking commit
a1b1add07fa794974573d93483d68e373edfe7bd ("gro: Fix kcalloc argument
order").

I know that was the regex used, because on seeing the 1st of these
changes, I wondered "how many other instances of this are there" and I
happened to just use "calloc(sizeof" as a regex and it in turn found
these additional reversed args instances in the perf code.

In the kcalloc cases, the changes are cosmetic, since the numbers are
simply multiplied.  I had no desire to go data mining in userspace to
see if the same thing held true there, however.

Thanks to Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo for pointing out that
fclose(NULL) is undefined behavior -> protect against it.

perf header: Stop using die() calls when processing tracing data

2013-01-25T15:49:29+00:00

The callers of this function (perf_event__process_tracing_data) already
handles a negative value return as error, so just use pr_err() to log
the problem and return -1 instead of panic'ing.

perf machine: Introduce struct machines

2013-01-24T19:40:12+00:00

That consolidates the grouping of host + guests, isolating a bit more of
functionality now centered on 'perf_session' that can be used
independently in tools that don't need a 'perf_session' instance, but
needs to have all the thread/map/symbol machinery.
