Jiri Olsa 52502bf201 perf tests: Add framework for automated perf_event_attr tests
The idea is run perf session with kidnapping sys_perf_event_open
function. For each sys_perf_event_open call we store the perf_event_attr
data to the file to be checked later against what we expect.

You can run this by:
  $ python ./tests/attr.py -d ./tests/attr/ -p ./perf -v

v2 changes:
  - preserve errno value in the hook

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 688b2c2f17 perf tools: Handle --version string generation on machines without git
If git is installed we'll have a 'perf --version' output of this form:

$ make -j8 -C tools/perf/ O=/home/acme/git/build/perf install
$ perf --version
perf version 3.7.rc3.g3afad6

Now on a machine without git installed:

$ mv  /home/acme/bin/git /home/acme/bin/git.OFF
$ make -j8 -C tools/perf/ O=/home/acme/git/build/perf install
$ perf --version
perf version 3.7.0-rc2

That is, no error message due to git not being installed will appear on the
screen and instead the version string in the top level Makefile will be
used.

Ingo Molnar 0e2af95669 perf tools: Further speed up the perf build
There's another source of overhead in the perf version string generator:

   git update-index -q --refresh

... which will iterate the whole checked out tree. This can be pretty
slow on NFS volumes, but takes some time even with local SSD disks and a
fully cached kernel tree:

 $ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty

 Performance counter stats for 'util/PERF-VERSION-GEN' (3 runs):

       0.306999221 seconds time elapsed                                          ( +-  0.56% )

So remove the .dirty differentiator as well - it adds little information
because locally patched git trees are common, but seldom are the perf
tools modified.

So a lot of version strings are reported as 'dirty' while in fact they
are pristine perf builds. For example 99% of my perf builds are not
patched but the kernel tree is slightly patched, which adds the .dirty
tag.

Eliminating that tag speeds up version generation by another order of
magnitude:

 $ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --sync --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g4b0bd3
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g4b0bd3
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g4b0bd3

(Also clean up some of the comments around this code.)

Ingo Molnar acddedfba0 perf tools: Speed up the perf build time by simplifying the perf --version string generation
Building perf is pretty slow on trees that have a lot of commits
relative to the nearest Git tag. This slowness manifests itself during
version string generation:

 $ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --sync --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.1458.g5399b3b
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.1458.g5399b3b
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.1458.g5399b3b

 Performance counter stats for 'util/PERF-VERSION-GEN' (3 runs):

       2.857503976 seconds time elapsed                                          ( +-  0.22% )

The build can be even slower than that, when one over NFS volumes.

The reason for the slowness is that util/PERF-VERSION-GEN uses "git
describe" to generate the string, which has to count the "number of
commits distance" from the nearest tag - the ".1458." count in the
output above. For that Git had to extract and decompress 1458 Git
objects, which takes time and bandwidth.

But this "number of commits" value is mostly irrelevant in practice. We
either want to know an approximate tag name, or we want to know the
precise sha1.

So this patch simplifies the version string to:

 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty

which speeds up the version string generation script by an order of
magnitude:

 $ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --sync --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty

 Performance counter stats for 'util/PERF-VERSION-GEN' (3 runs):

       0.307633559 seconds time elapsed                                          ( +-  0.84% )

Broke the python binding because the global variable 'page_size' is
initialized on the main() routine, that is not called when using
just the python binding, causing evlist.mmap() to fail because it
expects that variable to be initialized to the system's page size.

Fix it by initializing it on the binding init routine.

report or annotation browsers, for all perf samples or for samples
belong to one thread/symbol.

Please be noted: current script browser is only for report use, and
doesn't cover the record phase, IOW it must run against one existing
perf data file.

The work flow is, users can use function key to list all the available
scripts for current perf data file in system and chose one, which will
be executed with popen("perf script -s xxx.xx",) and all the output
lines are put into one ui browser, pressing 'q' or left arrow key will
make it return to previous browser.

Feng Tang 70cb4e963f perf tools: Add a global variable "const char *input_name"
Currently many perf commands annotate/evlist/report/script/lock etc all
support "-i" option to chose a specific perf data, and all of them
create a local "input_name" to save the file name for that perf data.

Since most of these commands need it, we can add a global variable for
it, also it can some other benefits:

1. When calling script browser inside hists/annotation browser, it needs
to know the perf data file name to run that script.

2. For further feature like runtime switching to another perf data file,
this variable can also help.

Andrew Vagin 26a031e136 perf inject: Merge sched_stat_* and sched_switch events
You may want to know where and how long a task is sleeping. A callchain
may be found in sched_switch and a time slice in stat_iowait, so I add
handler in perf inject for merging this events.

My code saves sched_switch event for each process and when it meets
stat_iowait, it reports the sched_switch event, because this event
contains a correct callchain. By another words it replaces all
stat_iowait events on proper sched_switch events.

I use the next sequence of commands for testing:

  perf record -e sched:sched_stat_sleep -e sched:sched_switch \
	      -e sched:sched_process_exit -g -o ~/perf.data.raw \
	      ~/test-program
  perf inject -v -s -i ~/perf.data.raw -o ~/perf.data
  perf report --stdio -i ~/perf.data

This cannot happen since we checked the elf_begin() when checking

Namhyung Kim b6f4f80410 tools lib traceevent: Do not generate dependency for system header files
Ingo reported (again!) that 'make clean' on perf/traceevent does not
work due to some reason with system header file. Quotes Ingo:

 "Note that the old dependency related build failure thought to be
  fixed in commit 860df5833e is back:

   make[1]: *** No rule to make target
   `/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.0/include/stddef.h', needed by `.trace-seq.d'.  Stop.

  'make clean' itself does not work in libtraceevent:

   comet:~/tip/tools/lib/traceevent> make clean
   make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.0/include/stddef.h', needed by `.trace-seq.d'.  Stop.

  So I had to clean it out manually:

   comet:~/tip/tools/lib/traceevent> git ls-files --others | xargs rm
   comet:~/tip/tools/lib/traceevent>

  and then things build fine."

Try to fix it by excluding system headers from dependency generation.

This is equivalent to the 'perf trace summary' subcomand in the tmp.perf/trace2
branch.

Another example, setting a huge duration filter to get just a system
wide summary:

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo efd5745e43 perf trace: Count number of events for each thread and globally
The nr_events in trace__run was local, but we will need it in other
trace methods, move it to struct trace.

We'll also need the number of events per thread, so introduce a
nr_events method for that in struct thread_trace.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo ba361c92e7 perf tools: Don't stop synthesizing threads when one vanishes
The perf_event__synthesize_threads routine synthesizes all the existing
threads in the system, because we don't have any kernel facilities to
ask for PERF_RECORD_{FORK,MMAP,COMM} for existing threads.

It was returning an error as soon as one thread couldn't be synthesized,
which is a bit extreme when, for instance, a forkish workload is
running, like a kernel compile.

Borislav Petkov af3df2cf17 perf tools: Try to build Documentation when installing
There's a portion in the "perf list" output refering to the exact
specification of raw hardware events.

Since this description is in the perf-list manpage, try to build and
install the man pages, warning the user when that is not possible
due to missing packages (xmlto and asciidoc).

For now the timestamp and duration are always on, will be selectable.

Also if multiple threads are being monitored, its tid will appear.

The ret output continues to be interpreted a la strace.

David Ahern 2305c82fb3 perf tools: Give user better message if precise is not supported
Platforms (e.g., VM's) without support for precise mode get a confusing
error message. e.g.,
$ perf record -e cycles:p -a -- sleep 1

  Error: sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 95 (Operation not
  supported).  /bin/dmesg may provide additional information.

  No hardware sampling interrupt available. No APIC? If so then you can
  boot the kernel with the "lapic" boot parameter to force-enable it.
  sleep: Terminated

which is not clear that precise mode might be the root problem. With this
patch:

$ perf record -e cycles:p -fo /tmp/perf.data -- sleep 1
  Error:
  'precise' request may not be supported. Try removing 'p' modifier
  sleep: Terminated

v2: softened message to 'may not be' supported per Robert's suggestion

Suzuki K. Poulose 03f2f93ae0 Account the nr_entries in rblist properly
The nr_entries in rblist is never decremented when an element
is deleted. Also, use rblist__remove_node to delete a node in
rblist__delete(). This would keep the nr_entries sane.
