perf tools: Add attr->mmap2 support

2013-09-11T13:09:32+00:00

This patch adds support for the new PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 record type
exposed by the kernel. This is an extended PERF_RECORD_MMAP record.

It adds for each file-backed mapping the device major, minor number and
the inode number and generation.

This triplet uniquely identifies the source of a file-backed mapping. It
can be used to detect identical virtual mappings between processes, for
instance.

The patch will prefer MMAP2 over MMAP.

[ Cope with 314add6 "Change machine__findnew_thread() to set thread pid",
  fix 'perf test' regression test entry affected,
  use perf_missing_features.mmap2 to fallback to not using .mmap2 in older kernels,
  so that new tools can work with kernels where this feature is not present ]

perf symbols: Add support for reading from /proc/kcore

2013-08-07T20:35:33+00:00

In the absence of vmlinux, perf tools uses kallsyms for symbols.  If the
user has access, now also map to /proc/kcore.

The dso data_type is now set to either DSO_BINARY_TYPE__KCORE or
DSO_BINARY_TYPE__GUEST_KCORE as approprite.

This patch breaks the "vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms" test.  That is
fixed in a following patch.

perf tools: Make it possible to read object code from kernel modules

2013-08-07T20:35:32+00:00

The new "object code reading" test shows that it is not possible to read
object code from kernel modules.  That is because the mappings do not
map to the dsos.  This patch fixes that.

This involves identifying and flagging relocatable (ELF type ET_REL)
files (e.g. kernel modules) for symbol adjustment and updating
map__rip_2objdump() accordingly.  The kmodule parameter of
dso__load_sym() is taken into use and the module map altered to map to
the dso.

perf tools: Make it possible to read object code from vmlinux

2013-08-07T20:35:31+00:00

The new "object code reading" test shows that it is not possible to read
object code from vmlinux.  That is because the mappings do not map to
the dso.  This patch fixes that.

A side-effect of changing the kernel map is that the "reloc" offset must
be taken into account.  As a result of that separate map functions for
relocation are no longer needed.

Also fixing up the maps to match the symbols no longer makes sense and
so is not done.

The vmlinux dso data_type is now set to either DSO_BINARY_TYPE__VMLINUX
or DSO_BINARY_TYPE__GUEST_VMLINUX as approprite, which enables the
correct file name to be determined by dso__binary_type_file().

This patch breaks the "vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms" test.  That is
fixed in a following patch.

Need to check for /dev/zero.

Most likely more strings are missing too.

perf tools: Use memdup in map__clone

We have memdup() exactly for that, remove open coded dup.

perf tools: Stop using 'self' in map.[ch]

2013-01-25T15:49:28+00:00

As suggested by tglx, 'self' should be replaced by something that is
more useful.

perf tools: Add anonymous huge page recognition

2013-01-24T19:40:19+00:00

Judging anonymous memory's vm_area_struct, perf_mmap_event's filename
will be set to "//anon" indicating this vma belongs to anonymous
memory.

Once hugepage is used, vma's vm_file points to hugetlbfs. In this way,
this vma will not be regarded as anonymous memory by is_anon_memory() in
perf user space utility.

perf machine: Move more methods to machine.[ch]

2012-11-09T14:32:52+00:00

This time out of map.[ch] mostly, just code move plus a buch of 'self'
removal, using machine or machines instead.

perf tools: Fix detection of stack area

Output of /proc//maps contains helpful information to anonymous
mappings like stack, heap, ...  For the case of stack, it can show
multiple stack area for each thread in the process:
