Make it explicit that the format attributes may define overlapping bit ranges. Unfortunately this was left unspecified originally, and all the examples show non-overlapping ranges. I don't believe this is an ABI change, as we are defining something that was previously undefined, but others may disagree. The POWER8 PMU would like to define overlapping ranges, as bit ranges in the event code have different meanings for certain events. It will also allow us to define an overarching "event" field, that encompasses all others. As far as I can see perf is comfortable with this change, however I am not sure if there are any other users of the interface. Signed-off-by:

Following patch added several Power7 events into /sys/devices/cpu/events. Document those events in the testing ABI. https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2013-April/105167.htmlSigned-off-by:

A set of Power7 events are often used for Cycles Per Instruction (CPI) stack analysis. Make these events available in sysfs (/sys/devices/cpu/events/) so they can be identified using their symbolic names: perf stat -e 'cpu/PM_CMPLU_STALL_DCACHE_MISS/' /bin/ls Signed-off-by:

We have a one of the event open fallback case in __perf_evsel__open where we zero exclude_guest|exclude_host fields. This means there's no way for attr tests to find out what's the right value for those fields, so we need to check for both 0 and 1. Luckily we still have other event parsing tests for those fields.

Adding automated test for testing the build process. To run it you need to be in perf directory or specify one with PERF variable. It's also possible to specify optional Makefile to test via MK variable. Whole suite is executed twice, the second time with O=/tmp/xxx option added. To run the whole suite: $ make -f tests/make - make_pure: cd . && make -f Makefile test: test -x ./perf - make_clean_all: cd . && make -f Makefile clean all test: test -x ./perf - make_python_perf_so: cd . && make -f Makefile python/perf.so test: test -f ./python/perf.so - make_debug: cd . && make -f Makefile DEBUG=1 test: test -x ./perf - make_no_libperl: cd . && make -f Makefile NO_LIBPERL=1 test: test -x ./perf You see command line for 'make_pure' test right away, and the output is stored into 'make_pure' file. To run simple test: $ make -f tests/make make_debug - make_debug: cd . && make -f Makefile DEBUG=1 test: test -x ./perf At this moment tests checks for successfull build and for existence of several built files. Additional after-build checks could be added. Signed-off-by: -

The current logic is to attach pair to the leader hist_entry. Arguments of hist_entry__add_pair function were placed the other way round.. driving me crazy. I.e. list_add_tail expects (new_node, head). Signed-off-by:

The 'perf report'command is single-threaded, so no need to grab a lock. Although the fast path of pthread_mutex_[un]lock() is very fast, there's a ~3% gain by eliminating it when we have huge sample data. $ perf record -a -F 100000 -o perf.data.bench -- perf bench sched all $ perf record -e cycles:upp -o perf.data.before -- \ > perf report -i perf.data.bench --stdio > /dev/null ... apply this patch ... $ perf record -e cycles:upp -o perf.data.after -- \ > perf report -i perf.data.bench --stdio > /dev/null $ perf diff perf.data.{before,after} | grep pthread +0.02% libpthread-2.15.so [.] _pthread_cleanup_push_defer +0.02% libpthread-2.15.so [.] _pthread_cleanup_pop_restore 0.05% -0.05% perf [.] pthread_mutex_unlock@plt 0.05% -0.05% perf [.] pthread_mutex_lock@plt 1.01% -1.01% libpthread-2.15.so [.] pthread_mutex_lock 1.68% -1.68% libpthread-2.15.so [.] __pthread_mutex_unlock_usercnt 0.05% -0.05% libpthread-2.15.so [.] pthread_mutex_unlock Signed-off-by: -

Those _threaded() functions are needed to make hist tree handling thread-safe, but AFAICS the only thing it does is forcing it to use the intermediate 'collapsed' tree. This can be acheived by setting sort__need_collapse to 1 in cmd_top() so no need to keep those _threaded() variants. Signed-off-by:

The -E/--entries option controls how many lines to be printed on stdio output but it doesn't work as it should be: If -E option is specified, print that many lines regardless of current window size, if not automatically adjust number of lines printed to fit into the window size. Reported-by:
