perf thread: Rename thread->mg to thread->maps

2019-11-26T14:07:46+00:00

One more step on the merge of 'struct maps' with 'struct map_groups'.

perf maps: Merge 'struct maps' with 'struct map_groups'

2019-11-26T14:07:46+00:00

And pick the shortest name: 'struct maps'.

The split existed because we used to have two groups of maps, one for
functions and one for variables, but that only complicated things,
sometimes we needed to figure out what was at some address and then had
to first try it on the functions group and if that failed, fall back to
the variables one.

That split is long gone, so for quite a while we had only one struct
maps per struct map_groups, simplify things by combining those structs.

First patch is the minimum needed to merge both, follow up patches will
rename 'thread->mg' to 'thread->maps', etc.

perf maps: Add for_each_entry()/_safe() iterators

2019-11-06T18:49:25+00:00

To reduce boilerplate, provide a more compact form using an idiom
present in other trees of data structures.

perf dsos: Move the dsos struct and its methods to separate source files

2019-09-01T01:24:10+00:00

So that we can reduce the header dependency tree further, in the process
noticed that lots of places were getting even things like build-id
routines and 'struct perf_tool' definition indirectly, so fix all those
too.

perf tools: Remove perf.h from source files not needing it

2019-08-29T20:38:32+00:00

With the movement of lots of stuff out of perf.h to other headers we
ended up not needing it in lots of places, remove it from those places.

libperf: Rename the PERF_RECORD_ structs to have a "perf" suffix

2019-08-26T22:39:11+00:00

Even more, to have a "perf_record_" prefix, so that they match the
PERF_RECORD_ enum they map to.

perf unwind: Fix libunwind when tid != pid

2019-08-16T15:25:57+00:00

Commit e5adfc3e7e77 ("perf map: Synthesize maps only for thread group
leader") changed the recording side so that we no longer get mmap events
for threads other than the thread group leader (when synthesising these
events for threads which exist before perf is started).

When a file recorded after this change is loaded, the lack of mmap
records mean that unwinding is not set up for any other threads.

This can be seen in a simple record/report scenario:

	perf record --call-graph=dwarf -t $TID
	perf report

If $TID is a process ID then the report will show call graphs, but if
$TID is a secondary thread the output is as if --call-graph=none was
specified.

Following the rationale in that commit, move the libunwind fields into
struct map_groups and update the libunwind functions to take this
instead of the struct thread.  This is only required for
unwind__finish_access which must now be called from map_groups__delete
and the others are changed for symmetry.

Note that unwind__get_entries keeps the thread argument since it is
required for symbol lookup and the libdw unwind provider uses the thread
ID.

perf db-export: Fix thread__exec_comm()

2019-08-08T18:41:10+00:00

Threads synthesized from /proc have comms with a start time of zero, and
not marked as "exec". Currently, there can be 2 such comms. The first is
created by processing a synthesized fork event and is set to the
parent's comm string, and the second by processing a synthesized comm
event set to the thread's current comm string.

In the absence of an "exec" comm, thread__exec_comm() picks the last
(oldest) comm, which, in the case above, is the parent's comm string.
For a main thread, that is very probably wrong. Use the second-to-last
in that case.

This affects only db-export because it is the only user of
thread__exec_comm().

Example:

  $ sudo perf record -a -o pt-a-sleep-1 -e intel_pt//u -- sleep 1
  $ sudo chown ahunter pt-a-sleep-1

Before:

  $ perf script -i pt-a-sleep-1 --itrace=bep -s tools/perf/scripts/python/export-to-sqlite.py pt-a-sleep-1.db branches calls
  $ sqlite3 -header -column pt-a-sleep-1.db 'select * from comm_threads_view'

perf tools: Use list_del_init() more thorougly

To allow for destructors to check if they're operating on a object still

still valid, or even also other already removed from list entries.
