perf header: Fix wrong node write in NUMA_TOPOLOGY feature

2019-07-09T21:04:03+00:00

commit b00ccb27f97367d89e2d7b419ed198b0985be55d upstream.

We are currently passing the node index instead of the real node number.

perf header: Fixup reading of HEADER_NRCPUS feature

2015-10-06T10:52:30+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: Ensure sscanf does not overrun the "mem" field

2014-01-20T19:19:08+00:00

Make the parsing robust.

(perf has some other assumptions that BUFSIZE <= MAX_PATH which are
 not touched here)

perf evlist: Introduce evlist__for_each() & friends

2014-01-13T13:06:25+00:00

For the common evsel list traversal, so that it becomes more compact.

Use the opportunity to start ditching the 'perf_' from 'perf_evlist__',
as discussed, as the whole conversion touches a lot of places, lets do
it piecemeal when we have the chance due to other work, like in this
case.

perf tools: Use zfree to help detect use after free bugs

2013-12-27T20:08:19+00:00

Several areas already used this technique, so do some audit to
consistently use it elsewhere.

perf tools: Introduce zfree

2013-12-27T18:17:00+00:00

For the frequent idiom of:

   free(ptr);
   ptr = NULL;

Make it expect a pointer to the pointer being freed, so that it becomes
clear at first sight that the variable being freed is being modified.

perf tools: No need to test against NULL before calling free()

2013-12-26T18:58:52+00:00

Its perfectly fine to call free(NULL), so no need to clutter the source
code with all those superfluous testing.

perf header: Allow header->data_offset to be predetermined

2013-12-13T13:30:20+00:00

It will be necessary to predetermine header->data_offset to allow space
for attributes that are added later.  Consequently, do not change
header->data_offset if it is non-zero.

perf symbols: Constify dso->long_name

2013-12-10T19:51:09+00:00

Same reason as for dso->short_name, it may point to a const string, and
in most places it is treated as const, i.e. it is just accessed for
using its contents as a key or to show it on reports.

perf tools: Add trace-event object

2013-12-04T18:20:52+00:00

Add trace-event object to keep together 'struct pevent' object with its
loaded plugins with following interface:

int trace_event__init(struct trace_event *t);

  - Initalizes 'struct pevent' object and loads plugins for it

void trace_event__cleanup(struct trace_event *t);

  - Cleanups both 'struct pevent' and plugins
