Irina Tirdea 1d037ca164 perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variables
perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking
unused variables. The variable __used is defined to
__attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to
__attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is
also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning:
'__used__' attribute ignored

__unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition.
If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to
conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name
in its headers.

The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the
kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one
definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the
same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android.
This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with
__maybe_unused.

Irina Tirdea 8bf98b8968 perf bench: fix assert when NDEBUG is defined
When NDEBUG is defined, the assert macro will be expanded to nothing.
Some assert calls used in perf are also including some functionality
(e.g. system calls), not only validity checks. Therefore, if NDEBUG is
defined, this functionality will be removed along with the assert.  Perf
also defines BUG_ON based on assert, so it has the same problem.

Define BUG_ON so that the condition will be executed when NDEBUG is
defined.  Replace the assert statements that have these side effects
with BUG_ON.

For defining BUG_ON, use "if (cond) {}" insted of "if (cond) ;" because
in the latter case build fails with "error: suggest braces around empty
body in an ‘if’ statement [-Werror=empty-body]"

Hitoshi Mitake 17d7a1123f perf bench: Fix confused variable namings and descriptions in mem subsystem
As Namhyung Kim pointed, there are confused namings and descriptions of words
"cycle" and "clock" in mem-memset.c and mem-memcpy.c.

With the option "-c" (or "--clock", now renamed as "--cycle"), mem subsystem
measures cost of memset() and memcpy() with cpu-cycles event.

But current mem subsystem source code contains lots of confused variable
namings and descriptions with "clock" (e.g. the variable use_clock). This is a
very bad style because there is another software event named "cpu-clock". This
patch replaces wrong usage of "clock" to "cycle".

v2: modified Documentation/perf-bench.txt for the descriptions of
--cycle option

Jiri Olsa e89cef136a perf tool: Fix perf stack to non executable on x86_64
By adding following objects:
  bench/mem-memset-x86-64-asm.o
  bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o
the x86_64 perf binary ended up with executable stack.

The reason was that above objects are assembler sourced and are missing the
GNU-stack note section. In such case the linker assumes that the final binary
should not be restricted at all and mark the stack as RWX.

Adding section ".note.GNU-stack" definition to mentioned objects, with all
flags disabled, thus omiting those objects from linker stack flags decision.

Jan Beulich e3e877e79b perf bench: Allow passing an iteration count to "bench mem mem{cpy,set}"
"perf stat ... perf bench mem mem..." is pretty meaningless when using
small block sizes (as the overhead of the invocation of each test run
basically hides the actual test result in the noise). Repeating the
actually interesting function's invocation a number of times allows the
results to become meaningful.

Jan Beulich 800eb01484 perf bench: Also allow measuring alternative memcpy implementations
Intended to be able to support the current selection of the preferred
memcpy() implementation, this patch adds the ability to also measure the
two alternative implementations, again by way of using some
pre-processsor replacement.

While on my Westmere system this proves that the movsb based variant is
worse than the movsq based one (since the ERMS feature isn't there), it
also shows that here for the default as well as small sizes the unrolled
variant outperforms the movsq one.

Jan Beulich 9ea811973d perf bench: Make "default" memcpy() selection actually use glibc's implementation
Since arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S implements not only __memcpy, but also
memcpy, without further precautions this function will get chose by the
static linker for resolving all references, and hence the "default"
measurement didn't really measure anything else than the
"x86-64-unrolled" one.

Fix this by renaming (through the pre-processor) the conflicting symbol.

On my Westmere system, the glibc variant turns out to require about 4%
less instructions, but 15% more cycles for the default 1Mb block size
measured.

Kyle McMartin fb7d0b3cef perf tool: Fix gcc 4.6.0 issues
GCC 4.6.0 in Fedora rawhide turned up some compile errors in tools/perf
due to the -Werror=unused-but-set-variable flag.

I've gone through and annotated some of the assignments that had side
effects (ie: return value from a function) with the __used annotation,
and in some cases, just removed unused code.

In a few cases, we were assigning something useful, but not using it in
later parts of the function.

This patch ports arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S to perf bench mem
memcpy for benchmarking memcpy() in userland with tricky and

util/include/asm/cpufeature.h, util/include/asm/dwarf2.h, and
util/include/linux/linkage.h are mostly dummy files with small
wrappers, so that we are able to include memcpy_64.S
unmodified.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 1967936d68 perf options: Check v type in OPT_U?INTEGER
To avoid problems like the one fixed by Stephane Eranian in 3de29ca, now
we'll got this instead:

	bench/sched-messaging.c:259: error: negative width in bit-field ‘<anonymous>’
	bench/sched-messaging.c:261: error: negative width in bit-field ‘<anonymous>’

Which is rather cryptic, but is how BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO works, so kernel
hackers should be already used to this.

With it in place found some problems, fixed by changing the affected
variables to sensible types or changed some OPT_INTEGER to OPT_UINTEGER.

Next csets will go thru converting each of the remaining OPT_ so that
review can be made easier by grouping changes per type per patch.

Ian Munsie c055564217 perf: Fix endianness argument compatibility with OPT_BOOLEAN() and introduce OPT_INCR()
Parsing an option from the command line with OPT_BOOLEAN on a
bool data type would not work on a big-endian machine due to the
manner in which the boolean was being cast into an int and
incremented. For example, running 'perf probe --list' on a
PowerPC machine would fail to properly set the list_events bool
and would therefore print out the usage information and
terminate.

This patch makes OPT_BOOLEAN work as expected with a bool
datatype. For cases where the original OPT_BOOLEAN was
intentionally being used to increment an int each time it was
passed in on the command line, this patch introduces OPT_INCR
with the old behaviour of OPT_BOOLEAN (the verbose variable is
currently the only such example of this).

I have reviewed every use of OPT_BOOLEAN to verify that a true
C99 bool was passed. Where integers were used, I verified that
they were only being used for boolean logic and changed them to
bools to ensure that they would not be mistakenly used as ints.
The major exception was the verbose variable which now uses
OPT_INCR instead of OPT_BOOLEAN.

Hitoshi Mitake 2044279d1e perf bench: Add "all" pseudo subsystem and "all" pseudo suite
This patch adds a new "all" pseudo subsystem and an "all" pseudo

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 364794845c perf tools: Introduce zalloc() for the common calloc(1, N) case
This way we type less characters and it looks more like the
kzalloc kernel counterpart.

Hitoshi Mitake 12eac0bf04 perf bench: Make the mem/memcpy tests more user-friendly
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.

Ingo Molnar 606bc1e18d perf bench: Clean up bench/bench.h
Clean up initializers in bench.h:

  - No need to break the line for function prototypes, they are more
    readable in a single line. (even if checkpatch complains about it

  - We try to align definitions / structure fields vertically,
    to make it  all a bit more readable.

 |	Total time:4.898 sec
 | $		4.898586 usecs/op
 |		204140 ops/sec
 |
 | the shell prompt came back before the usecs/op and ops/sec line
 | was printed. Process teardown race, lack of wait() or so?

This caused by lack of calling waitpid() by parent process,
so I added it.

Hitoshi Mitake e27454cc63 perf bench: Add sched-messaging.c: Benchmark for scheduler and IPC mechanisms based on hackbench
This patch adds bench/sched-messaging.c.

This benchmark measures performance of scheduler and IPC
mechanisms, and is based on hackbench by Rusty Russell.

Example of usage:

  % perf bench sched messaging -g 20 -l 1000 -s
  5.432  	  	       	    	    	     # in sec

  % perf bench sched messaging                 # run with default
  options (20 sender and receiver processes per group)
  (10 groups == 400 processes run)

        Total time:0.308 sec

  % perf bench sched messaging -t -g 20	     # # be multi-thread,
  with 20 groups (20 sender and receiver threads per group)
  (20 groups == 800 threads run)

        Total time:0.582 sec

( Rusty is the original author of hackbench.c and he said the code is
  and was under the GPLv2 so fine to be merged. )
