      perf report: Implement Newt callgraphs · 4ded2b25
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Starts collapsed, allows annotating by pressing 'A' or 'a' on
      the symbol, be it the top level one or any of the symbols in the
      chains.
      
      It (ab)uses the only tree widget in newt, that is actually a
      checkbox tree that we use with just one option ('.'), end result
      is usable but we really need to create a custom widget tree so
      that we can use the data structures we have (hist_entry rb_tree
      + callchain rb_tree + lists), so that we reduce the memory
      footprint by not creating a mirror set of data structures in the
      newtCheckboxTree widget.
      
      Thanks to Frédéric Weisbacker for fixing the orphanage problem
      in 301fde27, without that we were tripping a newt bug (fix
      already sent to newt's maintainer).

      No permission to collect system-wide stats.
      Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid.

      perf probe: Cleanup debuginfo related code · 4b4da7f7
      Masami Hiramatsu authored
      Cleanup debuginfo related code to eliminate fragile code which
      pointed by Ingo (Thanks!).
      1) Invert logic of NO_DWARF_SUPPORT to DWARF_SUPPORT.
      2) For removing assymetric/local variable ifdefs, introduce
        more helper functions.
      3) Change options order to reduce the number of ifdefs.

      perf: Fix orphan callchain branches · 301fde27
      Frederic Weisbecker authored
      Callchains have markers inside their capture to tell we
      enter a context (kernel, user, ...).
      
      Those are not displayed in the callchains but they are
      incidentally an active part of the radix tree where
      callchains are stored, just like any other address.
      
      If we have the two following callchains:
      
      addr1 -> addr2 -> user context -> addr3
      addr1 -> addr2 -> user context -> addr4
      addr1 -> addr2 -> addr 5
      
      This is pretty common if addr1 and addr2 are part of an
      interrupt path, addr3 and addr4 are user addresses and
      addr5 is a kernel non interrupt path.
      
      This will be stored as follows in the tree:
      
                         addr1
                         addr2
                         /   \
                        /     addr5
                  user context
                     /    \
                   addr3  addr4
      
      But we ignore the context markers in the report, hence
      the addr3 and addr4 will appear as orphan branches:
      
          |--28.30%-- hrtimer_interrupt
          |          smp_apic_timer_interrupt
          |          apic_timer_interrupt
          |          |           <------------- here, no parent!
          |          |          |
          |          |          |--11.11%-- 0x7fae7bccb875
          |          |          |
          |          |          |--11.11%-- 0xffffffffff60013b
          |          |          |
          |          |          |--11.11%-- __pthread_mutex_lock_internal
          |          |          |
          |          |          |--11.11%-- __errno_location
      
      Fix this by removing the context markers when we process the
      callchains to the tree.
