      perf hists: Fix callchain ip printf format · a0187060
      Jiri Olsa authored
      The callchain address is stored as u64. Current code uses following
      format string to display callchain address:
      
        "%p\n", (void *)(long)chain->ip
      
      This way we lose upper 32 bits if we report 64 bit addresses in 32 bit
      environment. Fixing this to always display whole 64 bits.
      
      Note, running following to test perf endianity handling:
      test 1)
        - origin system:
          # perf record -a -- sleep 10 (any perf record will do)
          # perf report > report.origin
          # perf archive perf.data
      
        - copy the perf.data, report.origin and perf.data.tar.bz2
          to a target system and run:
          # tar xjvf perf.data.tar.bz2 -C ~/.debug
          # perf report > report.target
          # diff -u report.origin report.target
      
        - the diff should produce no output
          (besides some white space stuff and possibly different
           date/TZ output)
      
      test 2)
        - origin system:
          # perf record -ag -fo /tmp/perf.data -- sleep 1
        - mount origin system root to the target system on /mnt/origin
        - target system:
          # perf script --symfs /mnt/origin -I -i /mnt/origin/tmp/perf.data \
           --kallsyms /mnt/origin/proc/kallsyms
        - complete perf.data header is displayed

      perf target: Add uses_mmap field · d1cb9fce
      Namhyung Kim authored
      If perf doesn't mmap on event (like perf stat), it should not create
      per-task-per-cpu events. So just use a dummy cpu map to create a
      per-task event for this case.

      ftrace: Remove selecting FRAME_POINTER with FUNCTION_TRACER · b732d439
      Steven Rostedt authored
      The function tracer will enable the -pg option with gcc, which requires
      that frame pointers. When FRAME_POINTER is defined in the kernel config
      it adds the gcc option -fno-omit-frame-pointer which causes some problems
      on some architectures. For those architectures, the FRAME_POINTER select
      was not set.
      
      When FUNCTION_TRACER was selected on these architectures that can not have
      -fno-omit-frame-pointer, the -pg option is still set. But when
      FRAME_POINTER is not selected, the kernel config would add the gcc option
      -fomit-frame-pointer. Adding this option is incompatible with -pg
      even on archs that do not need frame pointers with -pg.
      
      The answer to this was to just not add either -fno-omit-frame-pointer
      or -fomit-frame-pointer on these archs that want function tracing
      but do not set FRAME_POINTER.
      
      As it turns out, for archs that require frame pointers for function
      tracing, the same can be used. If gcc requires frame pointers with
      -pg, it will simply add it. The best thing to do is not select FRAME_POINTER
      when function tracing is selected, and let gcc add it if needed.
      
      Only add the -fno-omit-frame-pointer when something else selects
      FRAME_POINTER, but do not add -fomit-frame-pointer if function tracing
      is selected.

      ftrace/x86: Have x86 ftrace use the ftrace_modify_all_code() · e4f5d544
      Steven Rostedt authored
      To remove duplicate code, have the ftrace arch_ftrace_update_code()
      use the generic ftrace_modify_all_code(). This requires that the
      default ftrace_replace_code() becomes a weak function so that an
      arch may override it.

      ftrace: Make ftrace_modify_all_code() global for archs to use · 8ed3e2cf
      Steven Rostedt authored
      Rename __ftrace_modify_code() to ftrace_modify_all_code() and make
      it global for all archs to use. This will remove the duplication
      of code, as archs that can modify code without stop_machine()
      can use it directly outside of the stop_machine() call.

      tracing: Do not enable function event with enable · 9b63776f
      Steven Rostedt authored
      With the adding of function tracing event to perf, it caused a
      side effect that produces the following warning when enabling all
      events in ftrace:
      
       # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/enable
      
      [console]
      event trace: Could not enable event function
      
      This is because when enabling all events via the debugfs system
      it ignores events that do not have a ->reg() function assigned.
      This was to skip over the ftrace internal events (as they are
      not TRACE_EVENTs). But as the ftrace function event now has
      a ->reg() function attached to it for use with perf, it is no
      longer ignored.
      
      Worse yet, this ->reg() function is being called when it should
      not be. It returns an error and causes the above warning to
      be printed.
      
      By adding a new event_call flag (TRACE_EVENT_FL_IGNORE_ENABLE)
      and have all ftrace internel event structures have it set,
      setting the events/enable will no longe try to incorrectly enable
      the function event and does not warn.
