perf tools: Pass evlist to setup_sorting()

2016-01-06T23:11:11+00:00

This is a preparation to support dynamic sort keys for tracepoint
events.  Dynamic sort keys can be created for specific fields in trace
events so it needs the event information.

perf hist: Pass struct sample to histsadd_entry()

2016-01-06T23:11:10+00:00

This is a preparation to add more info into the hist_entry.  Also it
already passes too many argument, so passing sample directly will reduce
the overhead of the function call.

perf subcmd: Create subcmd library

2015-12-17T17:27:14+00:00

Move the subcommand-related files from perf to a new library named
libsubcmd.a.

Since we're moving files anyway, go ahead and rename 'exec_cmd.*' to
'exec-cmd.*' to be consistent with the naming of all the other files.

perf annotate: Delay UI browser setup after initialization is done

2015-12-10T17:33:54+00:00

Move setup_browser after all necessary initialization is done.  This is
to remove the browser dependency from usage_with_options and friends.

perf annotate: Check argument before calling setup_browser()

2015-12-10T17:32:33+00:00

This is necessary to get rid of the browser dependency from
usage_with_options() and its friends.  Because there's no code changing
the argc and argv, it'd be ok to check it early.

perf annotate: Reset the dso find_symbol cache when removing symbols

2015-08-24T16:33:14+00:00

The 'annotate' tool does some filtering in the entries in a DSO but
forgot to reset the cache done in dso__find_symbol(), cauxing a SEGV:

  [root@zoo ~]# perf annotate netlink_poll

perf report: Add infrastructure for a cycles histogram

2015-08-06T19:32:45+00:00

This adds the basic infrastructure to keep track of cycle counts per
basic block for annotate. We allocate an array similar to the normal
accounting, and then account branch cycles there.

We handle two cases:

cycles per basic block with start and cycles per branch (these are later
used for either IPC or just cycles per BB)

In the start case we cannot handle overlaps, so always the longest basic
block wins.

For the cycles per branch case everything is accurately accounted.

v2: Remove unnecessary checks. Slight restructure. Move
symbol__get_annotation to another patch. Move histogram allocation.
v3: Merged with current tree

perf annotate: Display total number of samples with --show-total-period

2015-06-19T19:39:18+00:00

To compare two records on an instruction base, with --show-total-period
option provided, display total number of samples that belong to a line
in assembly language.

New hot key 't' is introduced for 'perf annotate' TUI.
