      perf hists browser: Recalculate browser pointers after resort/decay · 900e14a8
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      In browsers that access dynamic underlying data structures, like in the
      hists browser and its hist_entry rb_tree, we need to revalidate any
      reference to the underlying data structure, because they can have gone
      away, decayed.
      
      This fixes a problem where after a while the top entries get behind the
      top of the screen, i.e. the top_idx stays at 0, which means it is at the
      first entry in the rb_tree when in fact it wasn't because the
      browser->top didn't got revalidated after the timer ran and the
      underlying data structure got updated.

      perf tools: Make perf.data more self-descriptive (v8) · fbe96f29
      Stephane Eranian authored
      The goal of this patch is to include more information about the host
      environment into the perf.data so it is more self-descriptive. Overtime,
      profiles are captured on various machines and it becomes hard to track
      what was recorded, on what machine and when.
      
      This patch provides a way to solve this by extending the perf.data file
      with basic information about the host machine. To add those extensions,
      we leverage the feature bits capabilities of the perf.data format.  The
      change is backward compatible with existing perf.data files.
      
      We define the following useful new extensions:
       - HEADER_HOSTNAME: the hostname
       - HEADER_OSRELEASE: the kernel release number
       - HEADER_ARCH: the hw architecture
       - HEADER_CPUDESC: generic CPU description
       - HEADER_NRCPUS: number of online/avail cpus
       - HEADER_CMDLINE: perf command line
       - HEADER_VERSION: perf version
       - HEADER_TOPOLOGY: cpu topology
       - HEADER_EVENT_DESC: full event description (attrs)
       - HEADER_CPUID: easy-to-parse low level CPU identication
      
      The small granularity for the entries is to make it easier to extend
      without breaking backward compatiblity. Many entries are provided as
      ASCII strings.
      
      Perf report/script have been modified to print the basic information as
      easy-to-parse ASCII strings. Extended information about CPU and NUMA
      topology may be requested with the -I option.
      
      Thanks to David Ahern for reviewing and testing the many versions of
      this patch.

      perf hists browser: Update the browser.nr_entries after the timer · be83f5ed
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Previously the hist_browser dealt with a static tree of entries, now it
      needs to update the nr_entries in the browser after the timer runs.
      
      A better solution will come when moving using another thread for the
      collapse_resort, etc, but for now this is ok.

      perf hists browser: Fix TAB/UNTAB use with multiple events · 7d16320e
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      When requesting multiple events, say:
      
        # perf top -e instructions -e cycles -e cache-misses
      
      The first screen lets the user chose what to see first, then to switch
      one can either use the left key to get back to the event menu or simply
      use TAB to go the next and shift+TAB to go the prev.
      
      When using TAB/UNTAB the call to perf_evlist__set_selected(event) was
      missing, fix it.

      perf tools: Fix broken number of samples for perf report -n · e39622ce
      Stephane Eranian authored
      The perf report -n option was broken because it was not reporting the
      correct number of samples depending on the sorting mode. By default,
      samples are sorted by comm,dso,sym. That means that samples for the same
      command (binary) get collapsed.
      
      The hists__collapse_insert_entry() had a bug whereby it was aggregating
      the number of events observed (periods) but not the number of samples.
      Consequently, the number of samples reported could be below reality. The
      percentage remained correct because based on the periods.
      
      This patch fixes the problem by also aggregating the number of samples.
      Here is an example:
      
      $ perf report -n --stdio
          12.38%        842     pong  [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] __lock_acquire
      
      Here pong (a ctxsw stress test), is the only program running
      and thus it is the only one responsible for the lock_acquire samples.
      
      If we change the sorting mode:
      
      $ perf report -n --stdio --sort=sym
          12.38%       1732  [k] __lock_acquire
      
      The actual number of samples is shown.
      
      With the fix:
      
      $ perf report -n --stdio
          12.38%       1732     pong  [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] __lock_acquire

      perf top: Use the TUI interface by default · 8b1bfdbd
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      To disable it either:
      
      1. Make sure newt-devel is not installed when building it
      
      2. Use 'perf top --stdio' just like with report
      
      3. Edit your ~/.perfconfig or system wide config and have this there:
      
      [tui]
      
      	top = off
      
      But you shouldn't, since the TUI is so much more powerful, has
      integration with annotation and where lots more interesting features
      will be developed, so if something annoys you (the colors?) just let me
      know and I'll do my best to make it pleasant as a default.

      perf annotate browser: Allow navigation to called functions · 34958544

      I.e. when in the annotate TUI window, if Enter is pressed over an
      assembly line with a 'callq' it will try to open another TUI window with
      that symbol.
      
      This is just a proof of concept and works only on x86_64, more work is
      needed to support kernel modules, userland, other arches, etc, but
      should already be useful as-is.

      perf top: Reuse the 'report' hist_entry/hists classes · ab81f3fd
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      This actually fixes several problems we had in the old 'perf top':
      
      1. Unresolved symbols not show, limitation that came from the old
         "KernelTop" codebase, to solve it we would need to do changes
         that would make sym_entry have most of the hist_entry fields.
      2. It was using the number of samples, not the sum of sample->period.
      
      And brings the --sort code that allows us to have all the views in
      'perf report', for instance:
      
      [root@emilia ~]# perf top --sort dso
      PerfTop: 5903 irqs/sec kernel:77.5% exact: 0.0% [1000Hz cycles], (all, 8 CPUs)

      All the filter lists can be used as well: --dsos, --comms, --symbols,
      etc.
      
      The 'perf report' TUI is also reused, being possible to apply all the
      zoom operations, do annotation, etc.
      
      This change will allow multiple simplifications in the symbol system as
      well, that will be detailed in upcoming changesets.

      perf hists: Threaded addition and sorting of entries · 1980c2eb
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      By using a mutex just for inserting and rotating two hist_entry rb
      trees, so that when sorting we can get the last batch of entries created
      from the ring buffer, merge it with whatever we have processed so far
      and show the output while new entries are being added.
      
      The 'report' tool continues, for now, to do it without threading, but
      will use this in the future to allow visualization of results in long
      perf.data sessions while the entries are being processed.
