Andi Kleen 85c273d2b6 perf record: Support recording running/enabled time
Add an option to perf record to record running/enabled time for read
events, similar to what stat does.

This is useful to understand multiplexing problems.

Right now the report support is not great, but at least report -D
already supports it.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo f078c3852c perf trace: Introduce --filter-pids
When tracing in X we get event loops due to the tracing activity, i.e.
updates to a gnome-terminal that generate syscalls for X.org, etc.

To get a more useful view of what is happening, syscall wise, system
wide, we need to filter those, like in:

 # ps ax|egrep '981|2296|1519' | grep -v egrep
   981 tty1 Ss+ 5:40 /usr/bin/Xorg :0 -background none ...
  1519 ?    Sl  2:22 /usr/bin/gnome-shell
  2296 ?    Sl  4:16 /usr/libexec/gnome-terminal-server
 #

 # trace -e write --filter-pids 981,2296,1519
    0.385 ( 0.021 ms): goa-daemon/2061 write(fd: 1</dev/null>, buf: 0x7fbeb017b000, count: 136) = 136
    0.922 ( 0.014 ms): goa-daemon/2061 write(fd: 1</dev/null>, buf: 0x7fbeb017b000, count: 140) = 140

 5177.646 ( 0.018 ms): rtkit-daemon/782 write(fd: 5<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, buf: 0x7f7eea70be88, count: 8) = 8
 8314.497 ( 0.004 ms): gsd-locate-poi/2084 write(fd: 5<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, buf: 0x7fffe96af7b0, count: 8) = 8

 ^C#

When this option is used the tracer pid is also filtered.

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

User visible changes:

  - No need to explicitely enable evsels for workload started from perf, let it
    be enabled via perf_event_attr.enable_on_exec, removing some events that take
    place in the 'perf trace' before a workload is really started by it.
    (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  - Fix to handle optimized not-inlined functions in 'perf probe' (Masami Hiramatsu)

  - Update 'perf probe' man page (Masami Hiramatsu)

  - 'perf trace': Allow mixing with tracepoints and suppressing plain syscalls
    (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Infrastructure changes:

  - Introduce {trace_seq_do,event_format_}_fprintf functions to allow
    a default tracepoint field list printer to be used in tools that allows
    redirecting output to a file. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  - The man page for pthread_attr_set_affinity_np states that _GNU_SOURCE
    must be defined before pthread.h, do it to fix the build in some
    systems (Josh Boyer)

  - Cleanups in 'perf buildid-cache' (Masami Hiramatsu)

  - Fix dso cache test case (Namhyung Kim)

  - Do Not rely on dso__data_read_offset() to open DSO (Namhyung Kim)

  - Make perf aware of tracefs (Steven Rostedt).

  - Fix build by defining STT_GNU_IFUNC for glibc 2.9 and older (Vinson Lee)

  - AArch64 symbol resolution fixes (Victor Kamensky)

  - Kconfig beachhead (Jiri Olsa)

  - Simplify nr_pages validity (Kaixu Xia)

  - Fixup header positioning in 'perf list' (Yunlong Song)

Kan Liang 384b60557b perf tools: Construct LBR call chain
LBR call stack only has user-space callchains. It is output in the
PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK data format. For kernel callchains, it's
still in the form of PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN.

The perf tool has to handle both data sources to construct a
complete callstack.

For the "perf report -D" option, both lbr and fp information will be
displayed.

A new call chain recording option "lbr" is introduced into the perf
tool for LBR call stack. The user can use --call-graph lbr to get
the call stack information from hardware.

Here are some examples.

When profiling bc(1) on Fedora 19:

  echo 'scale=2000; 4*a(1)' > cmd; perf record --call-graph lbr bc -l < cmd

If enabling LBR, perf report output looks like:

    50.36%       bc  bc                 [.] bc_divide

If using LBR, perf report -D output looks like:

The LBR call stack has the following known limitations:

 - Zero length calls are not filtered out by the hardware

 - Exception handing such as setjmp/longjmp will have calls/returns not
   match

 - Pushing different return address onto the stack will have
   calls/returns not match

 - If callstack is deeper than the LBR, only the last entries are
   captured

Kan Liang aad2b21c15 perf tools: Enable LBR call stack support
Currently, there are two call chain recording options, fp and dwarf.

Haswell has a new feature that utilizes the existing LBR facility to
record call chains. Kernel side LBR support code provides this as a
third option to record call chains. This patch enables the lbr call
stack support on the tooling side.

LBR call stack has some limitations:

 - It reuses current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and branch record
   can not be enabled at the same time.

 - It is only available for user-space callchains.

However, it also offers some advantages:

 - LBR call stack can work on user apps which don't have frame-pointers
   or dwarf debug info compiled. It is a good alternative when nothing
   else works.

 #

Next steps, probably in this order:

1) Use ordered_events code, the logic in trace needs the events to be
   time ordered when needed, i.e. when multiple CPUs are involved.

2) Callchains!

3) Automatically account for interruptions when saying how long things
   took.

Still some issues left till we move to ordered_samples when multiple

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 42052bea16 perf trace: Print thread info when following children
The default for 'trace workload' is to set perf_event_attr.inherit to 1,
i.e. to make it equivalent to 'strace -f workload', so we were ending
with syscalls for multiple processes mixed up, fix it:

Before:

  [root@ssdandy ~]# trace -e brk time usleep 1
     0.071 ( 0.002 ms): brk(              ) = 0x100e000
     0.802 ( 0.001 ms): brk(              ) = 0x1d99000
     1.132 ( 0.003 ms): brk(              ) = 0x1d99000
     1.136 ( 0.003 ms): brk(brk: 0x1dba000) = 0x1dba000
     1.140 ( 0.001 ms): brk(              ) = 0x1dba000
  0.00user 0.00system 0:00.00elapsed 63%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 528maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+181minor)pagefaults 0swaps
  [root@ssdandy ~]#

After:

  [root@ssdandy ~]# trace -f -e brk time usleep 1
     0.072 ( 0.002 ms): time/26308 brk(               ) = 0x1e6e000
     0.860 ( 0.001 ms): usleep/26309 brk(             ) = 0xb91000
     1.193 ( 0.003 ms): usleep/26309 brk(             ) = 0xb91000
     1.197 ( 0.003 ms): usleep/26309 brk(brk: 0xbb2000) = 0xbb2000
     1.201 ( 0.001 ms): usleep/26309 brk(             ) = 0xbb2000
  0.00user 0.00system 0:00.00elapsed 0%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 524maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+180minor)pagefaults 0swaps
  [root@ssdandy ~]#

BTW: to achieve the 'strace workload' behaviour, i.e. without a explicit
'-f', one has to use --no-inherit.

Yunlong Song 619a303c1b perf list: Place the header text in its right position
The hearer text 'List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):' is
placed in an improper function, which causes an abnormal output, e.g.
'perf list hw' shows no guiding text at all, and 'perf list hw
L1-dcache*' shows the guiding text incorrectly in the middle of the
output.

Example
Before this patch:

 $ perf list hw L1-dcache*

Yunlong Song 3a03005ff9 perf tools: Fix a bug of segmentation fault
Fix the 'segmentation fault' bug of 'perf list --list-cmds', which also
happens in other cases (e.g. record, report ...). This bug happens when
there are no cmds to list at all.

Example:

Before this patch:

  $ perf list --list-cmds
  Segmentation fault
  $

  After this patch:
  $ perf list --list-cmds
  $

As shown above, the result prints nothing rather than a segmentation
fault. The null result means 'perf list' has no cmds to display at this
time.

Move the x86 arch objects building under build framework to be included
in the libperf build object.

Adding also arch/$(ARCH)/Build files for the rest of the archs. The
reason for this is that in arch/Build we now do:

  +libperf-y += $(ARCH)/

which would make the build to fail on other architectures, because the
build framework requires 'Build' file in nested directories and this
patch adds it only for x86.
