  tools/power turbostat: introduce -s to dump counters
  tools/power turbostat: remove unused command line option
  turbostat: Add option to report joules consumed per sample
  turbostat: run on HSX
  turbostat: Add a .gitignore to ignore the compiled turbostat binary
  turbostat: Clean up error handling; disambiguate error messages; use err and errx
  turbostat: Factor out common function to open file and exit on failure
  turbostat: Add a helper to parse a single int out of a file

tools/power turbostat: introduce -s to dump counters

2014-02-01T20:24:28+00:00

The new option allows just run turbostat and get dump of counter values. It's
useful when we have something more than one program to test.

tools/power turbostat: remove unused command line option

The -s is not used, let's remove it, and update quick help accordingly.

perf buildid-cache: Check relocation when checking for existing kcore

2014-01-31T20:21:54+00:00

perf buildid-cache does not make another copy of kcore if the buildid
and modules match an existing copy.

That does not take into account the possibility that the kernel has been
relocated.

Extend the check to check if the reference relocation symbol matches
too, otherwise do make a copy.

perf tools: Adjust kallsyms for relocated kernel

2014-01-31T20:21:53+00:00

If the kernel is relocated at boot time, kallsyms will not match data
recorded previously.

That does not matter for modules because they are corrected anyway.  It
also does not matter if vmlinux is being used for symbols. But if perf
tools has only kallsyms then the symbols will not match.

Fix by applying the delta gained by comparing the old and current
addresses of the relocation reference symbol.

perf tests: No need to set up ref_reloc_sym

2014-01-31T20:21:52+00:00

Now that ref_reloc_sym is set up by machine__create_kernel_maps(), the
"vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms" test does have to do it.

perf symbols: Prevent the use of kcore if the kernel has moved

2014-01-31T20:21:51+00:00

Use of kcore is predicated upon it matching the recorded data.  If the
kernel has been relocated at boot time (i.e. since the data was
recorded) then do not use kcore.

Note that it is possible to make a copy of kcore at the time the data is
recorded using 'perf buildid-cache'.  Then the perf tools will use the
copy because it does match the data.

perf record: Get ref_reloc_sym from kernel map

2014-01-31T20:21:50+00:00

Now that ref_reloc_sym is set up when the kernel map is created,
'perf record' does not need to pass the symbol names to
perf_event__synthesize_kernel_mmap() which can read the values needed
from ref_reloc_sym directly.

perf machine: Set up ref_reloc_sym in machine__create_kernel_maps()

2014-01-31T20:21:49+00:00

The ref_reloc_sym is always needed for the kernel map in order to check
for relocation.  Consequently set it up when the kernel map is created.
Otherwise it was only being set up by 'perf record'.
