tools headers powerpc: Remove unistd.h

2019-01-10T13:42:08+00:00

We use syscall.tbl to generate system call table on powerpc.

The unistd.h copy is no longer required now. Remove it.

perf powerpc: Rework syscall table generation

2019-01-10T13:34:52+00:00

Commit aff850393200 ("powerpc: add system call table generation
support") changed how systemcall table is generated for powerpc.
Incorporate these changes into perf as well.

perf symbols: Add 'arch_cpu_idle' to the list of kernel idle symbols

2019-01-09T19:21:15+00:00

When testing 'perf top' on a armhf system (32-bit, Orange Pi Zero), I
noticed that 'arch_cpu_idle' dominated, add it to the list of idle
symbols, so that we can see what is that being done when not idle.

2019-01-08T17:09:33+00:00

As now we'll update our fs.h copy and what tools/perf/trace/beauty/mount_flags.sh
needs just got moved to mount.h, use that instead.

tools include uapi: Grab a copy of linux/mount.h

2019-01-08T17:09:28+00:00

We were using a copy of uapi/linux/fs.h to create the mount syscall
'flags' string table to use in 'perf trace', to convert from the number
obtained via the raw_syscalls:sys_enter into a string, using
tools/perf/trace/beauty/mount_flags.sh, but in e262e32d6bde ("vfs:
Suppress MS_* flag defs within the kernel unless explicitly enabled")
those defines got moved to linux/mount.h, so grab a copy of mount.h too.

Keep the uapi/linux/fs.h as we'll use it for the SEEK_ constants.

perf top: Lift restriction on using callchains without "sym" in --sort

2019-01-08T16:28:13+00:00

This restriction is not present in 'perf report' and since 'perf top'
uses the same hists browser, remove it from it as well.

With this we create per event buckets with callchain trees, so that

  # perf top --sort dso -g --no-children

Bucketizes samples by DSO and below it shows the callchains leading to
functions in this DSO.

Try also:

  # perf top -e sched:*switch -g --no-children

To see the callchains leading to sched switches, pressing 'E' to expand
all one can quickly see the most common scheduler switches and what
leads to them, for instance, calls to IO, futexes, etc.

perf tests: Add a test for the ARM 32-bit [vectors] page

2019-01-08T16:28:13+00:00

perf on ARM requires CONFIG_KUSER_HELPERS to be turned on to allow some
independance with respect to the ARM CPU being used. Add a test which
tries to locate the [vectors] page, created when CONFIG_KUSER_HELPERS is
turned on to help asses the system's health.

perf tools: Make find_vdso_map() more modular

2019-01-08T16:28:13+00:00

In preparation for checking that the vectors page on the ARM
architecture, refactor the find_vdso_map() function to accept finding an
arbitrary string and create a dedicated helper function for that under
util/find-map.c and update the filename to find-map.c and all references
to it: perf-read-vdso.c and util/vdso.c.

perf trace: Fix ')' placement in "interrupted" syscall lines

2019-01-08T16:28:12+00:00

When we get the sys_enter for a syscall we check if the last one is
still waiting for its matching sys_exit, if so we print this:

   468.753 (         ): firefox/32382 poll(ufds: 0x7f3988d3dd00, nfds: 7, timeout_msecs: 4294967295)     ...
   449.575 ( 0.004 ms): Softwar~cThrea/32434 futex(uaddr: 0x7f39a18a9b70, op: WAKE|PRIVATE_FLAG, val: 1)           = 0

At some point we'll get that poll sys_exit event and will print a "[continued]" line.

While making the sizing of the alignment after the syscall arg list and
its result configurable, so that we can mimic strace, which uses a
smaller alingment by default, a bug was introduced where the closing
parens appeared before the syscall name and its arg list, fix it.

Fixes: 4b8a240ed5e0 ("perf trace: Add alignment spaces after the closing parens")
