perf symbols: Add machine helper routines

2010-04-29T18:25:23+00:00

Created when writing the first 'perf test' regression testing routine. Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Peter Zijlstra LKML-Reference: Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf machine: Adopt some map_groups functions

2010-04-28T00:21:18+00:00

Those functions operated on members now grouped in 'struct machine', so move those methods to this new class. The changes made to 'perf probe' shows that using this abstraction inserting probes on guests almost got supported for free.

perf machine: Pass buffer size to machine__mmap_name

2010-04-28T00:19:05+00:00

Don't blindly assume that the size of the buffer is enough, use snprintf. Cc: Avi Kivity Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Zhang, Yanmin LKML-Reference: Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Rename "kernel_info" to "machine"

2010-04-28T00:17:50+00:00

struct kernel_info and kerninfo__ are too vague, what they really describe are machines, virtual ones or hosts. There are more changes to introduce helpers to shorten function calls and to make more clear what is really being done, but I left that for subsequent patches.

perf: 'perf kvm' tool for monitoring guest performance from host

2010-04-19T09:37:24+00:00

Here is the patch of userspace perf tool. Signed-off-by: Zhang Yanmin Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity

perf symbols: map_groups__find_symbol must return the map too

2010-04-02T19:27:43+00:00

Tools need to know from which map in the map_group a symbol was resolved to, so that, for isntance, we can annotate kernel modules symbols by getting its precise name, etc. Also add the _by_name variants for completeness.

perf symbols: Move more map_groups methods to map.c

2010-04-02T19:27:39+00:00

While writing a standalone test app that uses the symbol system to find kernel space symbols I noticed these also need to be moved. Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Paul Mackerras Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf symbols: Move map related routines to map.c

2010-03-26T07:52:58+00:00

Thru series of refactorings functions were being renamed but not moved to map.c to reduce patch noise, now lets have them in the same place so that use of the symbol system by tools can be constrained to building and linking fewer source files: symbol.c, map.c and rbtree.c.

perf symbols: Pass the mmap parameters instead of using mmap_event

2010-03-26T07:52:58+00:00

To reduce the coupling of the symbol system with the rest of perf. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Paul Mackerras LKML-Reference: <1269557941-15617-2-git-send-email-acme@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

perf symbols: Improve debugging information about symtab origins

2010-02-25T11:27:17+00:00
