perf inject: Correct event attribute sizes

2021-01-15T20:28:28+00:00

When 'perf inject' reads a perf.data file from an older version of perf, it writes event attributes into the output with the original size field, but lays them out as if they had the size currently used. Readers see a corrupt file. Update the size field to match the layout.

perf data: Allow to use stdio functions for pipe mode

2020-11-16T16:37:28+00:00

When perf data is in a pipe, it reads each event separately using read(2) syscall. This is a huge performance bottleneck when processing large data like in perf inject. Also perf inject needs to use write(2) syscall for the output. So convert it to use buffer I/O functions in stdio library for pipe data. This makes inject-build-id bench time drops from 20ms to 8ms. $ perf bench internals inject-build-id # Running 'internals/inject-build-id' benchmark: Average build-id injection took: 8.074 msec (+- 0.013 msec) Average time per event: 0.792 usec (+- 0.001 usec) Average memory usage: 8328 KB (+- 0 KB) Average build-id-all injection took: 5.490 msec (+- 0.008 msec) Average time per event: 0.538 usec (+- 0.001 usec) Average memory usage: 7563 KB (+- 0 KB) This patch enables it just for perf inject when used with pipe (it's a default behavior).

perf tools: Add size to 'struct perf_record_header_build_id'

2020-10-14T14:28:12+00:00

We do not store size with build ids in perf data, but there's enough space to do it. Adding misc bit PERF_RECORD_MISC_BUILD_ID_SIZE to mark build id event with size. With this fix the dso with md5 build id will have correct build id data and will be usable for debuginfod processing if needed (coming in following patches). Committer notes: Use %zu with size_t to fix this error on 32-bit arches: util/header.c: In function '__event_process_build_id': util/header.c:2105:3: error: format '%lu' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 6 has type 'size_t' [-Werror=format=] pr_debug("build id event received for %s: %s [%lu]\n", ^ Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa Acked-by: Ian Rogers Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201013192441.1299447-8-jolsa@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

Passing build_id object to build_id__sprintf function, so it can operate with the proper size of build id.
