Tom Zanussi 7397d80ddd perf/scripts: Move common code out of Perl-specific files
This stuff is needed by all scripting engines; move it from the Perl
engine source to a more common place.

Hitoshi Mitake 86d8d29634 perf tools: Add __data_loc support
This patch is required to test the next patch for perf lock.

At 064739bc4b ,
support for the modifier "__data_loc" of format is added.

But, when I wanted to parse format of lock_acquired (or some
event else), raw_field_ptr() did not returned correct pointer.

So I modified raw_field_ptr() like this patch. Then
raw_field_ptr() works well.

OGAWA Hirofumi 7691b1ec2e perf tools: Misc small fixes
- util/header.c
	"len" is aligned to 64. So, it tries to write the out of
	long_name buffer.

	So, this use "zero_buf" to write aligned area.

- util/trace-event-read.c
	"size" is not including nul byte. So, this allocates it, and set '\0'.

- util/trace-event-parse.c
	It needs parens to calc correct size.

Tom Zanussi d1b93772be perf trace: Add interface to access perf data from Perl handlers
The Perl scripting support for perf trace allows most of a trace
event's data to be accessed directly as handler arguments, but
not all of it e.g. the less common fields aren't passed in.  To
give scripts access to the other fields and/or any other data or
metadata in the main perf executable that might be useful, a way
to access the C data in perf from Perl is needed; this patch
uses the Perl XS facility to do it for the common_xxx event
fields not passed to handler functions.

Context.pm exports three functions to Perl scripts that access
fields for the current event by calling back into perf:
common_pc(), common_flags() and common_lock_depth().  Support
for common_flags() field values was added to Core.pm and a
script used to sanity check these and other basic scripting
features, check-perf-trace.pl, was also added.

Tom Zanussi 16c632de64 perf trace: Add Perl scripting support
Implement trace_scripting_ops to make Perl a supported perf
trace scripting language.

Additionally adds code that allows Perl trace scripts to access
the 'flag' and 'symbolic' (__print_flags(), __print_symbolic())
field information parsed from the trace format files.

Also adds the Perl implementation of the generate_script()
trace_scripting_op, which creates a ready-to-run perf trace Perl
script based on existing trace data.  Scripts generated by this
implementation print out all the fields for each event mentioned
in perf.data (and will detect and generate the proper scripting
code for 'flag' and 'symbolic' fields), and will additionally
generate handlers for the special 'trace_unhandled',
'trace_begin' and 'trace_end' handlers.  Script authors can
simply remove the printing code to implement their own custom
event handling.

Steven Rostedt 4e3b799d7d perf tools: Use strsep() over strtok_r() for parsing single line
The second argument in the strtok_r() function is not to be used
generically and can have different implementations. Currently
the function parsing of the perf trace code uses the second
argument to copy data from. This can crash the tool or just have
unpredictable results.

The correct solution is to use strsep() which has a defined
result.

I also added a check to see if the result was correct, and will
break out of the loop in case it fails to parse as expected.

Finish the -M/--multiplex option implementation:

 - separate it out from group_fd

 - correctly set it via the ioctl and dont mmap counters that
   are multiplexed

 - modify the perf record event loop to deal with buffer-less
   counters.

 - remove the -g option from perf sched record

 - account for unordered events in perf sched latency

 - (add -f to perf sched record to ease measurements)

 - skip idle threads (pid==0) in latency output

The result is better latency output by 'perf sched latency':

Frederic Weisbecker 4653881802 perf sched: Fix bad event alignment
perf sched raises the following error when it meets a sched
switch event:

perf: builtin-sched.c:286: register_pid: Assertion `!(pid >= 65536)' failed.
Abandon

Currently in x86-64, the sched switch events have a hole in the
middle of the structure:

	u16 common_type;
	u8 common_flags;
	u8 common_preempt_count;
	u32 common_pid;
	u32 common_tgid;

	char prev_comm[16];
	u32 prev_pid;
	u32 prev_prio;
			<--- there
	u64 prev_state;
	char next_comm[16];
	u32 next_pid;
	u32 next_prio;

Gcc inserts a 4 bytes hole there for prev_state to be u64
aligned. And the events are exported to userspace with this
hole.

But in userspace, from perf sched, we fetch it using a
structure that has a new field in the beginning: u32 size. This
is because our trace is exported with its size as a field. But
now that we have this new field, the hole in the middle
disappears because it makes prev_state becoming well aligned.

And since we are using a pointer to the raw trace using this
struct, instead of reading prev_state, we are reading the hole.

We could fix it by keeping the size seperate from the struct
but actually there a lot of other potential problems: some
fields may be saved as long in a 64 bits system and later read
as long in a 32 bits system. Also this direct cast doesn't care
about the endianness differences between the host traced
machine and the machine in which we do the post processing.

So instead of using such dangerous direct casts, fetch the
values using the trace parsing API that already takes care of
all these problems.

Ingo Molnar ec156764d4 perf sched: Import schedbench.c
Import the schedbench.c tool that i wrote some time ago to
simulate scheduler behavior but never finished. It's a good
basis for perf sched nevertheless.

Most of its guts are not hooked up to the perf event loop
yet - that will be done in the patches to come.

Ingo Molnar 65014ab361 perf tools: Work around strict aliasing related warnings
Older versions of GCC are rather stupid about strict aliasing:

  util/trace-event-parse.c: In function 'parse_cmdlines':
  util/trace-event-parse.c:93: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules
  util/trace-event-parse.c: In function 'parse_proc_kallsyms':
  util/trace-event-parse.c:155: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules
  util/trace-event-parse.c:157: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules
  util/trace-event-parse.c:158: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules
  util/trace-event-parse.c: In function 'parse_ftrace_printk':
  util/trace-event-parse.c:294: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules
  util/trace-event-parse.c:295: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules
  make: *** [util/trace-event-parse.o] Error 1

Make it clear to GCC that we intend with those pointers, by passing
them through via an explicit (void *) cast.

We might want to add -fno-strict-aliasing as well, like the kernel
itself does.

Frederic Weisbecker 3f9edc2382 perf tools: Make trace event format parser aware of cast to pointers
The ftrace event format parser handles the usual casts but not
the cast to pointers. Such casts have been introduced recently
with the module trace events and raise the following parsing
error:

	Fatal: bad op token )

This is because it considers the "*" character as a binary
operator. Make it then aware of casts to pointers.

This file is a rename of the parse-events.c file from the
trace-cmd tools, written by Steven Rostedt and Josh Triplett,
originated from the git tree:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/trace-cmd.git

This is a perf tools integration.
