2009-11-24perf top: Always show the DSO column, even if its all the sameArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Ingo found it confusing, and I agree with that, for 'perf report' its OK because it is static, but for a tool refreshing it the eventual switch from column to summary at the top may seem confusing.

2009-11-23hw-breakpoints: Check the breakpoint params from perf toolsFrederic Weisbecker
Perf tools create perf events as disabled in the beginning. Breakpoints are then considered like ptrace temporary breakpoints, only meant to reserve a breakpoint slot until we get all the necessary informations from the user. In this case, we don't check the address that is breakpointed as it is NULL in the ptrace case. But perf tools don't have the same purpose, events are created disabled to wait for all events to be created before enabling all of them. We want to check the breakpoint parameters in this case.

2009-11-23perf_events: Restore sanity to scaling landPeter Zijlstra
It is quite possible to call update_event_times() on a context that isn't actually running and thereby confuse the thing. perf stat was reporting !100% scale values for software counters (2e2af50b perf_events: Disable events when we detach them, solved the worst of that, but there was still some left). The thing that happens is that because we are not self-reaping (we have a caring parent) there is a time between the last schedule (out) and having do_exit() called which will detach the events. This period would be accounted as enabled,!running because the event->state==INACTIVE, even though !event->ctx->is_active. Similar issues could have been observed by calling read() on a event while the attached task was not scheduled in. Solve this by teaching update_event_times() about ctx->is_active.

2009-11-22perf_event: Remove redundant zero fillMárton Németh
The buffer is first zeroed out by memset(). Then strncpy() is used to fill the content. The strncpy() function also pads the string till the end of the specified length, which is redundant. The strncpy() does not ensures that the string will be properly closed with 0. Use strlcpy() instead. The semantic match that finds this kind of pattern is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression buffer; expression size; expression str; @@ memset(buffer, 0, size); ... - strncpy( + strlcpy( buffer, str, sizeof(buffer) ); @@ expression buffer; expression size; expression str; @@ memset(&buffer, 0, size); ... - strncpy( + strlcpy( &buffer, str, sizeof(buffer)); @@ expression buffer; identifier field; expression size; expression str; @@ memset(buffer, 0, size); ... - strncpy( + strlcpy( buffer->field, str, sizeof(buffer->field) ); @@ expression buffer; identifier field; expression size; expression str; @@ memset(&buffer, 0, size); ... - strncpy( + strlcpy( buffer.field, str, sizeof(buffer.field)); // </smpl> On strncpy() vs strlcpy() see http://www.gratisoft.us/todd/papers/strlcpy.html .

2009-11-22perf bench: Make the mem/memcpy tests more user-friendlyHitoshi Mitake
mem-memcpy.c uses perf event system calls to obtain CPU clocks. And it suddenly dies with BUG_ON() when it running on Linux doesn't support perf event. Also fail at calloc() can occur easily when too large length is passed. Fail of calloc() causes sudden death with assert(). These behaviours are not friendly. So I fixed the treating of errors.

But later on, we do the same check from perf to avoid commit recursion. The recursion check is desired early before we touch the buffer but we want to do this check only once.

We better call this routine after both the kernel and modules are loaded, because as it was if there weren't modules it would not be called, resulting in kernel_map->end remaining at zero, so no map would be found and consequently the kernel symtab wouldn't get loaded, i.e. no kernel symbols would be resolved. Also this fixes another case, that is when we _have_ modules, but the last map would have its ->end address not set before we loaded its symbols, which would never happen because ->end was not set.

2009-11-21perf_events: Fix default watermark calculationStephane Eranian
This patch fixes the default watermark value for the sampling buffer. With the existing calculation (watermark = max(PAGE_SIZE, max_size / 2)), no notification was ever received when the buffer was exactly 1 page. This was because you would never cross the threshold (there is no partial samples). In certain configuration, there was no possibilty detecting the problem because there was not enough space left to store the LOST record.In fact, there may be a more generic problem here. The kernel should ensure that there is alaways enough space to store one LOST record. This patch sets the default watermark to half the buffer size. With such limit, we are guaranteed to get a notification even with a single page buffer assuming no sample is bigger than a page.
