perf bench: Update the copies of x86's mem{cpy,set}_64.S

2019-12-02T14:40:57+00:00

And update linux/linkage.h, which requires in turn that we make these files switch from ENTRY()/ENDPROC() to SYM_FUNC_START()/SYM_FUNC_END(): tools/perf/arch/arm64/tests/regs_load.S tools/perf/arch/arm/tests/regs_load.S tools/perf/arch/powerpc/tests/regs_load.S tools/perf/arch/x86/tests/regs_load.S We also need to switch SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL() to SYM_FUNC_START() for the functions used directly by 'perf bench', and update tools/perf/check_headers.sh to ignore those changes when checking if the kernel original files drifted from the copies we carry. This is to get the changes from: 6dcc5627f6ae ("x86/asm: Change all ENTRY+ENDPROC to SYM_FUNC_*") ef1e03152cb0 ("x86/asm: Make some functions local") e9b9d020c487 ("x86/asm: Annotate aliases") And address these tools/perf build warnings: Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S' diff -u tools/arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/lib/memset_64.S' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/lib/memset_64.S' diff -u tools/arch/x86/lib/memset_64.S arch/x86/lib/memset_64.S Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Jiri Slaby Cc: Namhyung Kim Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-tay3l8x8k11p7y3qcpqh9qh5@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf maps: Merge 'struct maps' with 'struct map_groups'

2019-11-26T14:07:46+00:00

And pick the shortest name: 'struct maps'. The split existed because we used to have two groups of maps, one for functions and one for variables, but that only complicated things, sometimes we needed to figure out what was at some address and then had to first try it on the functions group and if that failed, fall back to the variables one. That split is long gone, so for quite a while we had only one struct maps per struct map_groups, simplify things by combining those structs. First patch is the minimum needed to merge both, follow up patches will rename 'thread->mg' to 'thread->maps', etc. Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-hom6639ro7020o708trhxh59@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tests arm64: Compile tests unconditionally

2019-06-17T18:57:16+00:00

In order to subsequently add more tests for the arm64 architecture we compile the tests target for arm64 systematically. Further explanation provided by Mark Rutland: Given prior questions regarding this commit, it's probably worth spelling things out more explicitly, e.g. Currently we only build the arm64/tests directory if CONFIG_DWARF_UNWIND is selected, which is fine as the only test we have is arm64/tests/dwarf-unwind.o. So that we can add more tests to the test directory, let's unconditionally build the directory, but conditionally build dwarf-unwind.o depending on CONFIG_DWARF_UNWIND. There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

perf tools: Rename build libperf to perf

2019-02-14T18:18:08+00:00

Rename build libperf to perf, because it's used to build perf. The libperf build object name will be used for libperf library.

perf map: Move structs and prototypes for map groups to a separate header

2019-02-06T13:00:38+00:00

And since machine.h only needs what is in there, make it stop including map.h and instead include this newly introduced map_groups.h instead.

perf tools arm64: Add libdw DWARF post unwind support for ARM64

2018-03-16T16:53:46+00:00

Based on prior work: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/6/395 and on how other arches add libdw unwind support. Includes support for running the unwind test, e.g., on a system with only elfutils' libdw 0.170, the test now runs, and successfully: $ ./perf test unwind 56: Test dwarf unwind : Ok Originally-by: Jean Pihet Reported-by: Christian Hansen Signed-off-by: Kim Phillips Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180308211030.4ee4a0d6ff6dc5cda1b567d4@arm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
