perf header: Fixup reading of HEADER_NRCPUS feature

2016-04-27T10:55:19+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: Fix cache event name generation

2014-03-11T23:10:04+00:00

commit 275ef3878f698941353780440fec6926107a320b upstream.

If the event name is specified with all 3 components, the last one
overwrites the previous one during the name composing within the
parse_events_add_cache function.

Fixing this by properly adjusting the string index.

perf tools: Remove extraneous newline when parsing hardware cache events

2014-03-11T23:10:04+00:00

commit 42e1fb776087713b5482cd7cf6cac998fbdd6544 upstream.

Noticed while developing a 'perf test' entry to verify that
perf_evsel__name works.

Need to check for /dev/zero.

Most likely more strings are missing too.

perf tools: Add anonymous huge page recognition

2013-08-15T05:57:08+00:00

commit d0528b5d71faf612014dd7672e44225c915344b2 upstream.

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 tools: Fix build with bison 2.3 and older.

2013-03-03T22:06:45+00:00

commit 85df3b3769222894e9692b383c7af124b7721086 upstream.

The %name-prefix "prefix" syntax is not available on bison 2.3 and
older. Substitute with the -p "prefix" command-line option for
compatibility with older versions of bison.

This patch fixes this build error with older versions of bison.

perf build-id: Fix filename size calculation

2012-05-01T17:13:00+00:00

The filename is a pointer variable so the sizeof(filename) will return
length of a pointer. Fix it by using 'size'.

perf symbols: Read plt symbols from proper symtab_type binary

2012-04-20T16:34:49+00:00

When loading symbols from DSO we check multiple paths of DSO binary
until we succeed to load symbols ('.symtab' section). Once symbols are
read we try to load also plt symbols.

During the reading of plt symbols, the dso file is reopened from
location given by dso->long_name. This could be wrong in case we want
process buildid binaries.

The change is to make the plt symbols being read from the DSO path, that
normal symbols were read from.

perf session: Skip event correctly for unknown id/machine

2012-04-12T15:14:50+00:00

In case the perf_session__process_event function fails, we estimate the
next event offset.

This is not necessary for sample event failing on unknown ID or machine.
In such case we know proper size of the event, so we dont need to guess.
Also failure statistics are updated correctly so we don't miss any
information.

Forcing perf_session__process_event to return 0 in case of unknown ID or
machine.
