      perf evlist: Adopt events_stats from perf_session · 75be989a
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      For tools that don't deal with perf.data files, thus do not need to
      use perf_session.

      perf session: Remove wrappers to machines__find · 54245fdc
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Start to untangle session from delivering samples, as there are
      tools that want to use ordered_events and don't use perf_session at all.

      perf trace: Separate routine that handles an event from the one that reads it · ddbb1b13
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Because we need to use ordered_events in some cases, so we will need to
      first have them in a queue, order that queue, and then process the
      event.

      perf trace: Introduce --filter-pids · f078c385
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      When tracing in X we get event loops due to the tracing activity, i.e.
      updates to a gnome-terminal that generate syscalls for X.org, etc.
      
      To get a more useful view of what is happening, syscall wise, system
      wide, we need to filter those, like in:
      
       # ps ax|egrep '981|2296|1519' | grep -v egrep
         981 tty1 Ss+ 5:40 /usr/bin/Xorg :0 -background none ...
        1519 ?    Sl  2:22 /usr/bin/gnome-shell
        2296 ?    Sl  4:16 /usr/libexec/gnome-terminal-server
       #
      
       # trace -e write --filter-pids 981,2296,1519
          0.385 ( 0.021 ms): goa-daemon/2061 write(fd: 1</dev/null>, buf: 0x7fbeb017b000, count: 136) = 136

       5007.235 ( 0.023 ms): goa-daemon/2061 write(fd: 1</dev/null>, buf: 0x7fbeb017b000, count: 140) = 140

       ^C#
      
      When this option is used the tracer pid is also filtered.

      perf trace: Only insert blank duration bracket when tracing syscalls · 0808921a
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      When printing just events, i.e. '--no-sys --ev some:events' it makes no
      sense to waste screen space.

      perf trace: Allow mixing with other events · 14a052df

      Basically adopting 'perf record' --event command line argument syntax:
      
       # trace -e \!mprotect,mmap,munmap,open,close,read,fstat,access,arch_prctl --event sched:*switch,sched:*exec,sched:*exit usleep 1

        0.434 (0.003 ms): usleep/24732 brk(brk: 0x7b0000             ) = 0x7b0000

        0.460 (        ): sched:sched_switch:prev_comm=usleep prev_pid=24732 prev_prio=120 prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/1 next_pid=0 next_prio=120)
        0.515 (0.058 ms): usleep/24732  ... [continued]: nanosleep()) = 0
        0.520 (0.000 ms): usleep/24732 exit_group(

       #
      
      Next steps, probably in this order:
      
      1) Use ordered_events code, the logic in trace needs the events to be
         time ordered when needed, i.e. when multiple CPUs are involved.
      
      2) Callchains!
      
      3) Automatically account for interruptions when saying how long things
         took.

      perf list: Place the header text in its right position · 619a303c
      Yunlong Song authored
      The hearer text 'List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):' is
      placed in an improper function, which causes an abnormal output, e.g.
      'perf list hw' shows no guiding text at all, and 'perf list hw
      L1-dcache*' shows the guiding text incorrectly in the middle of the
      output.
      
      Example
      Before this patch:

      perf: Remove the extra validity check on nr_pages · 74390aa5
      Kaixu Xia authored
      The function is_power_of_2() also do the check on nr_pages, so the first
      check performed is unnecessary. On the other hand, the key point is to
      ensure @nr_pages is a power-of-two number and mostly @nr_pages is a
      nonzero value, so in the most cases, the function is_power_of_2() will
      be called.

      perf tools: Fix a bug of segmentation fault · 3a03005f
      Yunlong Song authored
      Fix the 'segmentation fault' bug of 'perf list --list-cmds', which also
      happens in other cases (e.g. record, report ...). This bug happens when
      there are no cmds to list at all.
      
      Example:
      
      Before this patch:
      
        $ perf list --list-cmds
        Segmentation fault
        $
      
        After this patch:
        $ perf list --list-cmds
        $
      
      As shown above, the result prints nothing rather than a segmentation
      fault. The null result means 'perf list' has no cmds to display at this
      time.
