      perf annnotate: Make __symbol__inc_addr_samples handle src->histograms == NULL · 8d628d26
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      Making it a bit more robust, this took place here when a sample appeared
right after:

  ffffffff8a925000 D __nosave_end

And before the next considered symbol, which, using kallsyms make us
over guess the size of __nosave_end, and then the sequence:

  hist_entry__inc_addr_samples ->
    symbol__inc_addr_samples ->
      symbol__hists ->
        annotated_source__alloc_histograms

Ends up not liking to allocate gigabytes of ram for annotation...

This will be alleviated by considering BSS symbols, which we should but
don't so far, and then we should investigate those samples further.

The testcase was to have:

   perf top -e cycles/call-graph=fp/,cache-misses/call-graph=dwarf/,instructions

Running for a while till it segfaulted trying to access NULL notes->src->histograms.

      perf annotate: Create hotkey 'c' to show min/max cycles · 3e71fc03
      Jin Yao authored 
      In the 'perf annotate' view, a new hotkey 'c' is created for showing the
min/max cycles.

For example, when press 'c', the annotate view is:

  Percent│ IPC     Cycle(min/max)
         │
         │
         │                             Disassembly of section .text:

    8.93 │1.10             1(5/1)      ↓ je     43

When press 'c' again, the annotate view is switched back:

      perf annotate: Display all available events on --stdio · 04d2600a
      Jin Yao authored 
      When we perform the following command lines:

  $ perf record -e "{cycles,branches}" ./div
  $ perf annotate main --stdio

The output shows only the first event, "cycles" and the displaying
format is not correct.

                   :            }

The issue is that the value of the 'nr_percent' variable is hardcoded to
1.  This patch fixes it.

With this patch, the output is:

      perf annotate: Allow setting the offset level in .perfconfig · 43c40231
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      The default is 1 (jump_target):

  # perf annotate --ignore-vmlinux --stdio2 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
  Samples: 3K of event 'cycles:ppp', 3000 Hz, Event count (approx.): 2766398574

    7.97        pop    %rax
    0.32        nop
    0.06        mov    %rax,%rbx
   14.63        cli
    0.06        nop
                xor    %eax,%eax
                mov    $0x1,%edx

              ↓ jne    2b
    2.66        mov    %rbx,%rax
                pop    %rbx
              ← retq
          2b:   mov    %eax,%esi
              → callq  *ffffffffb30eaed0
                mov    %rbx,%rax
                pop    %rbx
              ← retq
  #

But one can ask for showing offsets for call instructions by setting
this:

  # perf annotate --ignore-vmlinux --stdio2 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
  Samples: 3K of event 'cycles:ppp', 3000 Hz, Event count (approx.): 2766398574

    4.61        push   %rbx
   19.33        pushfq
    7.97        pop    %rax
    0.32        nop
    0.06        mov    %rax,%rbx
   14.63        cli
    0.06        nop
                xor    %eax,%eax
                mov    $0x1,%edx
   49.94        lock   cmpxchg %edx,(%rdi)
    0.16        test   %eax,%eax
              ↓ jne    2b
    2.66        mov    %rbx,%rax
                pop    %rbx
              ← retq
          2b:   mov    %eax,%esi
          2d: → callq  *ffffffffb30eaed0
                mov    %rbx,%rax
                pop    %rbx
              ← retq
  #

Or using a big value to ask for all offsets to be shown:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [annotate]

	offset_level = 100

	hide_src_code = true
  # perf annotate --ignore-vmlinux --stdio2 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
  Samples: 3K of event 'cycles:ppp', 3000 Hz, Event count (approx.): 2766398574
  _raw_spin_lock_irqsave() /proc/kcore
    0.26   0:   nop
    4.61   5:   push   %rbx
   19.33   6:   pushfq
    7.97   7:   pop    %rax
    0.32   8:   nop
    0.06   d:   mov    %rax,%rbx
   14.63  10:   cli
    0.06  11:   nop
          17:   xor    %eax,%eax
          19:   mov    $0x1,%edx
   49.94  1e:   lock   cmpxchg %edx,(%rdi)
    0.16  22:   test   %eax,%eax
          24: ↓ jne    2b
    2.66  26:   mov    %rbx,%rax
          29:   pop    %rbx
          2a: ← retq
          2b:   mov    %eax,%esi
          2d: → callq  *ffffffffb30eaed0
          32:   mov    %rbx,%rax
          35:   pop    %rbx
          36: ← retq
   #

This also affects the TUI, i.e. the default 'perf annotate' and 'perf
top/report' -> A hotkey -> annotate interfaces, when slang-devel is present
in the build, i.e.:

  # perf version --build-options | grep slang
              libslang: [ on  ]  # HAVE_SLANG_SUPPORT

      perf annotate: Allow showing offsets in more than just jump targets · 592c10e2
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      Jesper wanted to see offsets at callq sites when doing some performance
investigation related to retpolines, so save him some time by providing
an 'struct annotation_options' to control where offsets should appear:
just on jump targets? That + call instructions? All?

This puts in place the logic to show the offsets, now we need to wire
this up in the TUI browser (next patch) and on the 'perf annotate --stdio2"
interface, where we need a more general mechanism to setup the
'annotation_options' struct from the command line.
