      perf tools: Fix checking asprintf return value · 26dee028
      Wang Nan authored
      According to man pages, asprintf returns -1 when failure. This patch
      fixes two incorrect return value checker.

      perf bpf: Rename bpf_prog_priv__clear() to clear_prog_priv() · 80cdce76
      Wang Nan authored
      The name of bpf_prog_priv__clear() doesn't follow perf's naming
      convention. bpf_prog_priv__delete() seems to be a better name. However,
      bpf_prog_priv__delete() should be a method of 'struct bpf_prog_priv',
      but its first parameter is 'struct bpf_program'.
      
      It is callback from libbpf to clear priv structures when destroying a
      bpf program. It is actually a method of bpf_program (libbpf object), but
      bpf_program__ functions should be provided by libbpf.
      
      This patch removes the prefix of that function.

      perf stat: Handled scaled == -1 case for counters · b002f3bb
      Andi Kleen authored
      Arnaldo pointed out that the earlier cb110f47 ("perf stat: Move
      noise/running printing into printout") change changed behavior for not
      counted counters. This patch fixes it again.

      perf test: Reduce the sample_freq for the 'object code reading' test · 5243ba76
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Using 4 kHz is not necessary and sometimes is more than what was
      auto-tuned:
      
        # dmesg | grep max_sample_rate | tail -2
        [ 2499.144373] perf interrupt took too long (2501 > 2500), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 50000
        [ 3592.413606] perf interrupt took too long (5069 > 5000), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 25000
      
      Simulating a auto-tune of 2000 we make the test fail, as reported
      by Steven Noonan for one of his machines, so reduce it to 500 HZ,
      it is enough to get a good number of samples for this test:
      
        # perf test -v 21 2>&1  | grep '^Reading object code for memory address' | tee /tmp/out | tail -5
        Reading object code for memory address: 0x479f40
        Reading object code for memory address: 0x7f29b7eea80d
        Reading object code for memory address: 0x7f29b7eea80d
        Reading object code for memory address: 0x7f29b7eea800
        Reading object code for memory address: 0xffffffff813b2f23
        [root@jouet ~]# wc -l /tmp/out
        40 /tmp/out
        [root@jouet ~]#
      
      For systems that auto-tune below that, the previous patches will tell the
      user what is happening so that he may either ignore the result of this test or
      bump /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.

      perf evlist: Handle -EINVAL for sample_freq > max_sample_rate in strerror_open() · d9aade7f
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      When running the "code reading" test we get:
      
        # perf test -v "code reading" 2>&1 | tail -5
        Parsing event 'cycles:u'
        perf_evlist__open failed
        test child finished with -1
        ---- end ----
        Test object code reading: FAILED!
        #
      
      And with -vv we get the errno value, -22, i.e. -EINVAL, but we can do
      better and handle the case at hand, with this patch it becomes:
      
        # perf test -v "code reading" 2>&1 | tail -7
        perf_evlist__open() failed!
        Error: Invalid argument.
        Hint:  Check /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
        Hint:  The current value is 1000 and 4000 is being requested.
        test child finished with -1
        ---- end ----
        Test object code reading: FAILED!
        #
      
      Next patch will make this 'perf test' entry to use perf_evlist__strerror()

      perf record: Add --all-user/--all-kernel options · 85723885

      Allow user to easily switch all events to user or kernel space with simple
      --all-user or --all-kernel options.
      
      This will be handy within perf mem/c2c wrappers to switch easily monitoring

      perf evlist: Reference count the cpu and thread maps at set_maps() · a55e5663
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      We were dropping the reference we possibly held but not obtaining one
      for the new maps, which we will drop at perf_evlist__delete(), fix it.
      
      This was caught by Steven Noonan in some of the machines which would
      produce this output when caught by glibc debug mechanisms:

      Further investigation using valgrind led to the reference count imbalance fixed
