perf tools: Fix buildid processing

2015-08-19T17:15:26+00:00

After recording, 'perf record' post-processes the data to determine which buildids are needed. That processing must process the data in time order, if possible, because otherwise dependent events, like forks and mmaps, will not make sense.

perf tools: Configurable per thread proc map processing time out

2015-06-19T21:27:13+00:00

The time out to limit the individual proc map processing was hard code to 500ms. This patch introduce a new option --proc-map-timeout to make the time limit configurable.

perf record: Amend option summaries

2015-06-10T15:00:27+00:00

Because there's too many options and I cannot read, I frequently get confused between -c and -P, and try to do things like: perf record -P 50000 -- foo Which does not work; try and make the option description slightly longer and hopefully less confusing.

perf record: Fix perf.data size in no-buildid mode

2015-06-08T13:30:32+00:00

The size of perf.data is missing update in no-buildid mode, which gives wrong output result. Before this patch: $ perf.perf record -B -e syscalls:sys_enter_open uname Linux [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.000 MB perf.data ] After this patch: $ perf.perf record -B -e syscalls:sys_enter_open uname Linux [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.001 MB perf.data ] Signed-off-by: He Kuang Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Wang Nan Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1432819050-30511-1-git-send-email-hekuang@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Move branch option parsing to own file

perf record: Add AUX area tracing Snapshot Mode support

2015-05-05T21:13:01+00:00

Add a new option and support for Instruction Tracing Snapshot Mode. When the new option is selected, no AUX area tracing data is captured until a signal (SIGUSR2) is received.

perf tools: Add build option NO_AUXTRACE to exclude AUX area tracing

2015-05-05T21:12:53+00:00

Add build option NO_AUXTRACE to exclude compiling support for AUX area tracing. Support for both recording and processing is excluded and by implication any future additions such as Intel PT and Intel BTS will also not be compiled in with this option.

perf tools: Hit all build ids when AUX area tracing

2015-05-04T22:49:42+00:00

We need to include all buildids when a perf.data file contains AUX area tracing data because we do not decode the trace for that purpose because it would take too long.

perf tools: Add AUX area tracing index

2015-05-04T22:48:47+00:00

Add an index of AUX area tracing events within a perf.data file. perf record uses a special user event PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND to enable sorting of events in chunks instead of having to sort all events altogether. AUX area tracing events contain data that can span back to the very beginning of the recording period. i.e. they do not obey the rules of PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND. By adding an index, AUX area tracing events can be found in advance and the PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND approach works as usual. The index is recorded with the auxtrace feature in the perf.data file. A session reads the index but does not process it. An AUX area decoder can queue all the AUX area data in advance using auxtrace_queues__process_index() or otherwise process the index in some custom manner.

perf record: Extend -m option for AUX area tracing mmap pages

Extend the -m option so that the number of mmap pages for AUX area tracing can be specified by adding a comma followed by the number of pages.
