2016-11-14perf config: Mark where are config items from (user or system)Taeung Song
To write config items to a particular config file, we should know where is each config section and item from. Current setting functionality of perf-config use autogenerating way by overwriting collected config items to a config file. For example, when collecting config items from user and system config files (i.e. ~/.perfconfig and $(sysconf)/perfconfig), perf_config_set can contain both user and system config items. So we should know where each value is from to avoid merging user and system config items on user config file.

2016-11-14perf config: Add support setting variables in a config fileTaeung Song
Add setting feature that can add config variables with their values to a config file (i.e. user or system config file) or modify config key-value pairs in a config file. For the syntax examples: perf config [<file-option>] [section.name[=value] ...] e.g. You can set the ui.show-headers to false with # perf config ui.show-headers=false If you want to add or modify several config items, you can do like # perf config annotate.show_nr_jumps=false kmem.default=slab Committer notes: Testing it: $ perf config -l top.children=true report.children=false $ $ perf config top.children=false $ perf config -l top.children=false report.children=false $ $ perf config kmem.default=slab $ perf config -l top.children=false report.children=false kmem.default=slab $ Signed-off-by: Taeung Song <treeze.taeung@gmail.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Nambong Ha <over3025@gmail.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Cc: Wookje Kwon <aweee0@gmail.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1478241862-31230-5-git-send-email-treeze.taeung@gmail.com [ Combined patch with docs update with this one ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

You can show the values for several config items as below: # perf config report.queue-size call-graph.record-mode but it is necessary to more precisely check arguments, before passing them to show_spec_config(). This validation function would be also used when parsing config key-value pairs arguments in the near future. Committer notes: Testing it: $ perf config bla.

2016-11-09perf hists: Fix column length on --hierarchyNamhyung Kim
Markus reported that there's a weird behavior on perf top --hierarchy regarding the column length. Looking at the code, I found a dubious code which affects the symptoms. When --hierarchy option is used, the last column length might be inaccurate since it skips to update the length on leaf entries. I cannot remember why it did and looks like a leftover from previous version during the development. Anyway, updating the column length often is not harmful. So let's move the code out.

2016-10-25perf bench futex: Avoid worker cacheline bouncingDavidlohr Bueso
Sebastian noted that overhead for worker thread ops (throughput) accounting was producing 'perf' to appear in the profiles, consuming a non-trivial (i.e. 13%) amount of CPU. This is due to cacheline bouncing due to the increment of w->ops. We can easily fix this by just working on a local copy and updating the actual worker once done running, and ready to show the program summary. There is no danger of the worker being concurrent, so we can trust that no stale value is being seen by another thread. This also gets rid of the unnecessary cache alignment hack; its not worth it.

2016-10-24perf trace: Use the syscall raw_syscalls:sys_enter timestampArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Instead of the one when another syscall takes place while another is being processed (in another CPU, but we show it serialized, so need to "interrupt" the other), and also when finally showing the sys_enter + sys_exit + duration, where we were showing the sample->time for the sys_exit, duh.

2016-10-24perf bench futex: Cache align the worker structSebastian Andrzej Siewior
It popped up in perf testing that the worker consumes some amount of CPU. It boils down to the increment of `ops` which causes cache line bouncing between the individual threads. This patch aligns the struct by 256 bytes to ensure that not a cache line is shared among CPUs. 128 byte is the x86 worst case and grep says that L1_CACHE_SHIFT is set to 8 on s390.

2016-10-24perf jit: Generate .eh_frame/.eh_frame_hdr in DSOStefano Sanfilippo
When the jit_buf_desc contains unwinding information, it is emitted as eh_frame unwinding sections in the DSOs generated by perf inject. The unwinding information is required to unwind of JITed code which do not maintain the frame pointer register during function calls. It can be emitted by V8 / Chromium when the --perf_prof_unwinding_info is passed to V8. The eh_frame and eh_frame_hdr sections are emitted immediately after the .text. The .eh_frame is aligned at a 8-byte boundary, and .eh_frame_hdr at a 4-byte one. Since size of the .eh_frame is required to be a multiple of the word size, which means there will never be additional padding between it and the .eh_frame_hdr on machines where the word size is 4 or 8 bytes. However, additional padding might be inserted between .text and .eh_frame to reach the correct alignment, which will always be 8 bytes, also on 32bit machines. The reasoning behind this choice is that 4 extra bytes of padding worst case are not a large cost for the advantage of removing word-size dependent offset calculations when emitting the jitdump.

2016-10-24perf jit: Add unwinding supportStefano Sanfilippo
This record is intended to provide unwinding information in the eh_frame format. This is required to unwind JITed code which does not maintain the frame pointer register during function calls. The eh_frame unwinding information can be emitted by V8 / Chromium when the --perf_prof_unwinding_info is passed. A record of type jr_code_unwinding_info comes before the jr_code_load it referred to and contains both the .eh_frame and .eh_frame_hdr. The fields in the header have the following meaning: * unwinding_size: size of the eh_frame and eh_frame_hdr, necessary for distinguishing the content from the padding. * eh_frame_hdr_size: as the name says. * mapped_size: size of the payload that was in memory at runtime. typically unwinding_size if the .eh_frame_hdr and .eh_frame were mapped, or 0 if they weren't. It should always be the former case, since the .eh_frame is guaranteed to be mapped in memory. However, certain JITs might want to inject an .eh_frame_hdr with an empty LUT to trigger fp-based unwinding fallback in libunwind. The only part of the .eh_frame_hdr that libunwind reads from remote memory is the LUT, and since there is none, mapping the unwinding info in memory is not necessary, and 0 in this field signifies that it wasn't. This practical hack allows to save bytes in code memory for those JIT compilers that might or might not maintain a valid frame pointer. The payload that follows is assumed to contain first the .eh_frame and then the .eh_header_hdr, with no padding between the two.
