| * perf cpu_map: Fix core dump caused by per-socket/core system-wide statKan Liang2015-10-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Perf will core dump if --per-socket/core -a are applied for perf stat. The root cause is that cpu_map__build_map set refcnt of evlist's cpu_map to 1. It should set refcnt for the newly created cpu_map, not evlist's cpu_map. Here is the example: # perf stat -e cycles --per-socket -a sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': S0 36 30,196,257 cycles S1 28 15,823,536 cycles 1.001126828 seconds time elapsed *** Error in `./perf': corrupted double-linked list: 0x00000000021f9090 *** ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib64/libc.so.6[0x3002e7bbe7] /lib64/libc.so.6[0x3002e7d2b5] ./perf(perf_evsel__delete+0x28)[0x485bdd] ./perf[0x4800e8] ./perf(perf_evlist__delete+0x5e)[0x482cd5] ./perf(cmd_stat+0xf25)[0x432328] ./perf[0x4768e0] ./perf[0x476ad6] ./perf[0x476b41] ./perf(main+0x1d0)[0x476db2] /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf5)[0x3002e21b45] ./perf[0x4202c5] Signed-off-by: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1444388363-35936-1-git-send-email-kan.liang@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new branch sample type to cover only call branches (function calls). The current ANY_CALL included direct, indirect calls and far jumps.

* perf/x86: Fix time_shift in perf_event_mmap_pageAdrian Hunter2015-10-202-2/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit: b20112edeadf ("perf/x86: Improve accuracy of perf/sched clock") allowed the time_shift value in perf_event_mmap_page to be as much as 32. Unfortunately the documented algorithms for using time_shift have it shifting an integer, whereas to work correctly with the value 32, the type must be u64. In the case of perf tools, Intel PT decodes correctly but the timestamps that are output (for example by perf script) have lost 32-bits of granularity so they look like they are not changing at all. Fix by limiting the shift to 31 and adjusting the multiplier accordingly. Also update the documentation of perf_event_mmap_page so that new code based on it will be more future-proof.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So 'perf bench mem memcpy/memset' has elaborate code to measure memcpy()/memset() performance both with freshly allocated buffers (which includes initial page fault overhead) and with preallocated buffers. But the thing is, the resulting bandwidth results are mostly meaningless, because page faults dominate so much of the cost. It might make sense to measure cache cold vs. cache hot performance, but the code does not do this. So remove this complication, and always prefault the ranges before using them.

Furthermore, 'perf bench mem all' will not run all routines: vega:~> perf bench mem all # Running mem/memcpy benchmark... Routine default (Default memcpy() provided by glibc) # Copying 1MB Bytes ... 894.454383 MB/Sec 3.844734 GB/Sec (with prefault) # Running mem/memset benchmark... Routine default (Default memset() provided by glibc) # Copying 1MB Bytes ... 1.220703 GB/Sec 9.042245 GB/Sec (with prefault) Because misleadingly the 'all' refers to 'all sub-benchmarks', not 'all sub-benchmarks and routines'. Fix all this by making the memcpy/memset routine to default to 'all', which results in all the benchmarks being run: triton:~> perf bench mem all # Running mem/memcpy benchmark...

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, when 'perf test' is run by a normal user, it'll fail to access tracepoint events. The output becomes somewhat messy because it tries to be nice with long error messages and hints.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | perf_regs.c does not get built on Powerpc as CONFIG_PERF_REGS is false. So the weak definition for 'sample_regs_masks' doesn't get picked up. Adding perf_regs.o to util/Build unconditionally, exposes a redefinition error for 'perf_reg_value()' function (due to the static inline version in util/perf_regs.h). So use #ifdef HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT' around that function. Signed-off-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Naveen N.
