      perf session: Sort all events if ordered_samples=true · cbf41645
      Thomas Gleixner authored 
      Now that we have timestamps on FORK, EXIT, COMM, MMAP events we can
sort everything in time order. This fixes the following observed
problem:

mmap(file1) -> pagefault() -> munmap(file1)
mmap(file2) -> pagefault() -> munmap(file2)

Resulted in decoding both pagefaults in file2 because the file1 map
was already replaced by the file2 map when the map address was
identical.

With all events sorted we decode both pagefaults correctly.

      perf hist: Better displaying of unresolved DSOs and symbols · 1437a30a
      Ian Munsie authored 
      In the event that a DSO has not been identified, just print out [unknown]
instead of the instruction pointer as we previously were doing, which is pretty
meaningless for a shared object (at least to the users perspective).

The IP we print out is fairly meaningless in general anyway - it's just one
(the first) of the many addresses that were lumped together as unidentified,
and could span many shared objects and symbols. In reality if we see this
[unknown] output then the report -D output is going to be more useful anyway as
we can see all the different address that it represents.

If we are printing the symbols we are still going to see this IP in that column
anyway since they shouldn't resolve either.

This patch also changes the symbol address printouts so that they print out 0x
before the address, are left aligned, and changes the %L format string (which
relies on a glibc bug) to %ll.

Before:
    74.11%    :3259               4a6c  [k]     4a6c
After:
    74.11%    :3259  [unknown]          [k] 0x4a6c

First column is the cpu and the second the timestamp.

That way we can investigate problems in the event stream.

If the new perf binary is run on an older kernel, it will disable this feature
automatically.

      perf session: Parse sample earlier · 640c03ce
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      At perf_session__process_event, so that we reduce the number of lines in eache
tool sample processing routine that now receives a sample_data pointer already
parsed.

This will also be useful in the next patch, where we'll allow sample the
identity fields in MMAP, FORK, EXIT, etc, when it will be possible to see (cpu,
timestamp) just after before every event.

Also validate callchains in perf_session__process_event, i.e. as early as
possible, and keep a counter of the number of events discarded due to invalid
callchains, warning the user about it if it happens.

There is an assumption that was kept that all events have the same sample_type,
that will be dealt with in the future, when this preexisting limitation will be
removed.

      perf events: Make sample_type identity fields available in all PERF_RECORD_ events · c980d109
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      If perf_event_attr.sample_id_all is set it will add the PERF_SAMPLE_ identity
info:

TID, TIME, ID, CPU, STREAM_ID

As a trailer, so that older perf tools can process new files, just ignoring the
extra payload.

With this its possible to do further analysis on problems in the event stream,
like detecting reordering of MMAP and FORK events, etc.

V2: Fixup header size in comm, mmap and task processing, as we have to take into
account different sample_types for each matching event, noticed by Thomas Gleixner.

Thomas also noticed a problem in v2 where if we didn't had space in the buffer we
wouldn't restore the header size.

      Those will be made available in sample like events like MMAP, EXEC, etc in a
followup patch. So precalculate the extra id header space and have a separate
routine to fill them up.

V2: Thomas noticed that the id header needs to be precalculated at
inherit_events too:

      perf tools: Fix lost and unknown events handling · 068ffaa8
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      Fix it by explaining what can be happening and giving the number of processed
and lost events.

Also holler if unknown events were found, that can be due to processing a
perf.data file collected using a newer tool where newer events got added on
reporting using an older perf tool, that or a bug, so ask for a report to be
made.

Works on both --tui and --stdio.
