perf tools: Share map_groups among threads of the same group

2014-04-28T11:43:33+00:00

Sharing map groups within all process threads. This way
there's only one copy of mmap info and it's reachable
from any thread within the process.

perf tools: Reference count map_groups objects

2014-04-28T11:43:26+00:00

We will share it among threads in the same process.
Adding map_groups__get/map_groups__put interface for that.

perf tools: Allocate thread map_groups's dynamically

2014-04-28T11:43:20+00:00

Moving towards sharing map groups within a process threads.

Because of this we need the map groups to be dynamically allocated. No
other functional change is intended in here.

Based on a patch by Jiri Olsa, but this time _just_ making the
conversion from statically allocating thread->mg to turning it into a
pointer and instead of initializing it at thread's constructor,
introduce a constructor/destructor for the map_groups class and
call at thread creation time.

Later we will introduce the get/put methods when we move to sharing
those map_groups, when the get/put refcounting semantics will be needed.

perf symbols: Introduce thread__find_cpumode_addr_location

2014-03-14T21:08:40+00:00

Its one level up thread__find_addr_location, where it will look in
different domains for a sample: user, kernel, hypervisor, etc.

Will soon be used by a patchkit by Andi Kleen.

perf tools: Do proper comm override error handling

2014-01-16T19:44:39+00:00

The comm overriding API ignores memory allocation failures by silently
keeping the previous and out of date comm.

As a result, the user may get buggy events without ever being notified
about the problem and its source.

Lets start to fix this by propagating the error from the API. Not all
callers may be doing proper error handling on comm set yet but this is
the first step toward it.

perf tools: Fix inverted error verification bug in thread__fork

2013-12-13T13:30:21+00:00

Commit 1902efe7f for the new comm infra added the wrong check for return
code on thread__set_comm. err == 0 is normal, so don't return at that
point unless err != 0.

perf tools: Tag thread comm as overriden

2013-11-19T13:33:29+00:00

The problem is that when a thread overrides its default ":%pid" comm, we
forget to tag the thread comm as overriden. Hence, this overriden comm
is not inherited on future forks. Fix it.

perf tools: Get current comm instead of last one

2013-11-04T15:16:39+00:00

At insert time, a hist entry should reference comm at the time otherwise
it'll get the last comm anyway.

perf tools: Add new COMM infrastructure

2013-11-04T15:13:53+00:00

This new COMM infrastructure provides two features:

1) It keeps track of all comms lifecycle for a given thread. This way we
can associate a timeframe to any thread COMM, as long as
PERF_SAMPLE_TIME samples are joined to COMM and fork events.

As a result we should have more precise COMM sorted hists with seperated
entries for pre and post exec time after a fork.

2) It also makes sure that a given COMM string is not duplicated but
rather shared among the threads that refer to it. This way the threads
COMM can be compared against pointer values from the sort
infrastructure.
