perf tools: Add cpu to struct thread

2014-07-23T14:27:50+00:00

Tools may wish to track on which cpu a thread is running.  Add 'cpu' to
struct thread for that purpose.

This will be used to determine the cpu when decoding a per-thread
Instruction Trace.

E.g: Intel PT decoding uses sched_switch events to determine which task
is running on which cpu.  The Intel PT data comes straight from the
hardware which doesn't know about linux threads.

perf tools: Remove verbose from functions prototypes

2014-07-17T14:04:42+00:00

And use verbose as an global object in following functions:

  __map_groups__fprintf_maps
  __map_groups__fprintf_removed_maps
  map_groups__fprintf_maps
  map_groups__fprintf

Also making map_groups__fprintf_maps static.

perf thread: Allow deletion of a thread with no map groups

2014-07-17T13:32:35+00:00

It needs to be possible to call thread__delete() on a thread with no map
groups.

This is needed for a subsequent patch which deletes a thread on the
error path before map groups have been attached.

perf machine: Fix the value used for unknown pids

2014-07-16T20:57:33+00:00

The value used for unknown pids cannot be zero because that is used by
the "idle" task.

Use -1 instead.  Also handle the unknown pid case when creating map
groups.

Note that, threads with an unknown pid should not occur because fork (or
synthesized) events precede the thread's existence.

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.
