Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 6beba7adbe perf tools: Unify debug messages mechanisms
We were using eprintf in some places, that looks at a global
'verbose' level, and at other places passing a 'v' parameter to
specify the verbosity level, unify it by introducing
pr_{err,warning,debug,etc}, just like in the kernel.

Mike Galbraith 7e4ff9e3e8 perf tools: Fix counter sample frequency breakage
Commit 42e59d7d19 switched to a default sample frequency of
1KHz, which overrides any user supplied count, causing sched, top
and timechart to miss events due to their discrete events
being flagged PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD.

Override default sample frequency when the user profides a
period count, and make both record and top honor that user
supplied option.

Ingo Molnar 42e59d7d19 perf tools: Default to 1 KHz auto-sampling freq events
Use auto-freq events by default in perf record and
perf top.

This allows more consistent hardware event sampling,
regardless of the intensity of the underlying event.

It also keeps us from over-sampling on larger/busier
systems.

(also make surrounding initializations more consistent)

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 439d473b47 perf tools: Rewrite and improve support for kernel modules
Representing modules as struct map entries, backed by a DSO, etc,
using /proc/modules to find where the module is loaded.

DSOs now can have a short and long name, so that in verbose mode we
can show exactly which .ko or vmlinux image was used.

As kernel modules now are a DSO separate from the kernel, we can
ask for just the hits for a particular set of kernel modules, just
like we can do with shared libraries:

[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf report -n --vmlinux
/home/acme/git/build/tip-recvmmsg/vmlinux --modules --dsos \[drm\] | head -15
    84.58%      13266             Xorg  [k] drm_clflush_pages
     4.02%        630             Xorg  [k] trace_kmalloc.clone.0
     3.95%        619             Xorg  [k] drm_ioctl
     2.07%        324             Xorg  [k] drm_addbufs
     1.68%        263             Xorg  [k] drm_gem_close_ioctl
     0.77%        120             Xorg  [k] drm_setmaster_ioctl
     0.70%        110             Xorg  [k] drm_lastclose
     0.68%        106             Xorg  [k] drm_open
     0.54%         85             Xorg  [k] drm_mm_search_free
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]#

Specifying --dsos /lib/modules/2.6.31-tip/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/drm.ko
would have the same effect. Allowing specifying just 'drm.ko' is left
for another patch.

Processing kallsyms so that per kernel module struct map are
instantiated was also left for another patch. That will allow
removing the module name from each of its symbols.

struct symbol was reduced by removing the ->module backpointer and
moving it (well now the map) to struct symbol_entry in perf top,
that is its only user right now.

The total linecount went down by ~500 lines.

Ingo Molnar cdd6c482c9 perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events
Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!

In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
monitoring, analysis facility.

Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
less appropriate.

All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)

The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.

Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
suggested a rename.

User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
keep the size down.)

This patch has been generated via the following script:

  FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')

  sed -i \
    -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
    -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
    -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
    -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
    -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
    $FILES

  for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
    M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
    mv $N $M
  done

  FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)

  sed -i \
    -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
    -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \
    -e 's/counter/event/g' \
    -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
    $FILES

... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
is the smallest: the end of the merge window.

Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.

( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
  with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
  over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
  in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
  better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
  instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

Librarize trace_event() helper so that perf trace can use it

It's not good to have it included in perf.h because it doesn't
make it flexible against other headers it may need (headers
that can also depend on perf.h and then create a recursive
header dependency).

Ingo Molnar 83a0944fa9 perf: Enable more compiler warnings
Related to a shadowed variable bug fix Valdis Kletnieks noticed
that perf does not get built with -Wshadow, which could have
helped us avoid the bug.

So enable -Wshadow and also enable the following warnings on
perf builds, in addition to the already enabled -Wall -Wextra
-std=gnu99 warnings:

 -Wcast-align
 -Wformat=2
 -Wshadow
 -Winit-self
 -Wpacked
 -Wredundant-decls
 -Wstack-protector
 -Wstrict-aliasing=3
 -Wswitch-default
 -Wswitch-enum
 -Wno-system-headers
 -Wundef
 -Wvolatile-register-var
 -Wwrite-strings
 -Wbad-function-cast
 -Wmissing-declarations
 -Wmissing-prototypes
 -Wnested-externs
 -Wold-style-definition
 -Wstrict-prototypes
 -Wdeclaration-after-statement

And change/fix the perf code to build cleanly under GCC 4.3.2.

The list of warnings enablement is rather arbitrary: it's based
on my (quick) reading of the GCC manpages and trying them on
perf.

I categorized the warnings based on individually enabling them
and looking whether they trigger something in the perf build.
If i liked those warnings (i.e. if they trigger for something
that arguably could be improved) i enabled the warning.

If the warnings seemed to come from language laywers spamming
the build with tons of nuisance warnings i generally kept them
off. Most of the sign conversion related warnings were in
this category. (A second patch enabling some of the sign
warnings might be welcome - sign bugs can be nasty.)

I also kept warnings that seem to make sense from their manpage
description and which produced no actual warnings on our code
base. These warnings might still be turned off if they end up
being a nuisance.

I also left out a few warnings that are not supported in older
compilers.

[ Note that these changes might break the build on older
  compilers i did not test, or on non-x86 architectures that
  produce different warnings, so more testing would be welcome. ]

Frederic Weisbecker 1e11fd82d2 perf_counter tools: Provide helper to print percents color
Among perf annotate, perf report and perf top, we can find the
common colored printing of percents according to the following
rules:

    High overhead =  > 5%, colored in red
    Mid overhead =  > 0.5%, colored in green
    Low overhead =  < 0.5%, default color

Factorize these multiple checks in a single function named
percent_color_fprintf() and also provide a get_percent_color()
for sites which print percentages and other things at the same
time.

Peter Zijlstra e6e18ec79b perf_counter: Rework the sample ABI
The PERF_EVENT_READ implementation made me realize we don't
actually need the sample_type int the output sample, since
we already have that in the perf_counter_attr information.

Therefore, remove the PERF_EVENT_MISC_OVERFLOW bit and the
event->type overloading, and imply put counter overflow
samples in a PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE type.

This also fixes the issue that event->type was only 32-bit
and sample_type had 64 usable bits.

Paul Mackerras 9cffa8d533 perf_counter tools: Define and use our own u64, s64 etc. definitions
On 64-bit powerpc, __u64 is defined to be unsigned long rather than
unsigned long long.  This causes compiler warnings every time we
print a __u64 value with %Lx.

Rather than changing __u64, we define our own u64 to be unsigned long
long on all architectures, and similarly s64 as signed long long.
For consistency we also define u32, s32, u16, s16, u8 and s8.  These
definitions are put in a new header, types.h, because these definitions
are needed in util/string.h and util/symbol.h.

The main change here is the mechanical change of __[us]{64,32,16,8}
to remove the "__".  The other changes are:

* Create types.h
* Include types.h in perf.h, util/string.h and util/symbol.h
* Add types.h to the LIB_H definition in Makefile
* Added (u64) casts in process_overflow_event() and print_sym_table()
  to kill two remaining warnings.

A build error slipped in:

 builtin-report.c: In function ‘hist_entry__fprintf’:
 builtin-report.c:711: error: format ‘%12d’ expects type ‘int’, but argument 3 has type ‘uint64_t’

Because we got a bit sloppy with those types. uint64_t really sucks,
because there's no printf format for it. So standardize on __u64
instead - for all types that go to or come from the ABI (which is __u64),
or for values that need to be large enough even on 32-bit.

Frederic Weisbecker 2f01190aa6 perf top: Wait for a minimal set of events before reading first snapshot
The first snapshot reading often occur before any events have
been read in the mapped perfcounter files.

Just wait until we have at least one event before starting the
snapshot, or the delay before the first set of entries to be
displayed may be long in case of low refresh rate.

Note: we could also use a semaphore to wait before
"print_entries" number of eveents is reached, but again this
value is tunable and we can't ensure we will even reach it.
Also we could base on a default mimimum set of entries for the
first refresh, say 15, but again, the minimal sample is
tunable, and we could end up displaying nothing until we have a
minimal default set of events, which can take some time in case
of high samples filters.

Hence this simple solution which partially covers the default
case.

[ Impact: fix display artifacts in perf top ]
