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 tools: Add kernel AUX area sampling definitions

2019-11-21T13:54:20+00:00

Add kernel AUX area sampling definitions, which brings perf_event.h into
line with the kernel version.

New sample type PERF_SAMPLE_AUX requests a sample of the AUX area
buffer.  New perf_event_attr member 'aux_sample_size' specifies the
desired size of the sample.

Also add support for parsing samples containing AUX area data i.e.
PERF_SAMPLE_AUX.

Committer notes:

I squashed the first two patches in this series to avoid breaking
automatic bisection, i.e. after applying only the original first patch
in this series we would have:

  # perf test -v parsing
  26: Sample parsing                                        :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 17018
  sample format has changed, some new PERF_SAMPLE_ bit was introduced - test needs updating
  test child finished with -1
  ---- end ----
  Sample parsing: FAILED!
  #

With the two paches combined:

  # perf test parsing
  26: Sample parsing                                        : Ok
  #

perf parse: Report initial event parsing error

2019-11-18T22:14:29+00:00

Record the first event parsing error and report. Implementing feedback
from Jiri Olsa:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/10/28/680

An example error is:

  $ tools/perf/perf stat -e c/c/
  WARNING: multiple event parsing errors
  event syntax error: 'c/c/'
                         \___ unknown term

  valid terms: event,filter_rem,filter_opc0,edge,filter_isoc,filter_tid,filter_loc,filter_nc,inv,umask,filter_opc1,tid_en,thresh,filter_all_op,filter_not_nm,filter_state,filter_nm,config,config1,config2,name,period,percore

Initial error:

  event syntax error: 'c/c/'
                      \___ Cannot find PMU `c'. Missing kernel support?
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

   Usage: perf stat [] []

      -e, --event    event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events

perf maps: Do not use an rbtree to sort by map name

2019-11-18T14:19:51+00:00

This is only used for the kernel maps, shave 24 bytes out 'struct map'
and just traverse the existing per ip rbtree to look for maps by name,
use a front end cache to reuse the last search if its the same name.

After this 'struct map' is down to just two cachelines:

  $ pahole -C map ~/bin/perf
  struct map {
  	union {
  		struct rb_node rb_node __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); /*     0    24 */
  		struct list_head node;                   /*     0    16 */
  	} __attribute__((__aligned__(8)));                                               /*     0    24 */
  	u64                        start;                /*    24     8 */
  	u64                        end;                  /*    32     8 */

perf unwind: Use 'struct map_symbol' in 'struct unwind_entry'

2019-11-12T11:20:53+00:00

To help in passing that info around to callchain routines that, for the
same reason, are moving to use 'struct map_symbol'.
