Fixing the way the tracing information is stored within record command.
The current implementation is causing issues for pipe output.
Following commands fail currently:
perf script syscall-counts ls
perf record -e syscalls:sys_exit_read ls | ./perf report -i -
The tracing information is part of the perf data file. It contains
several files from within the tracing debugfs and procs directories.
Beside some static header files, for each tracing event the format
file is added. The /proc/kallsyms file is also added.
The tracing data are stored with preceeding size. This is causing some
dificulties for pipe output, since there's no way to tell debugfs/proc
file size before reading it. So, for pipe output, all the debugfs files
were read twice. Once to get the overall size and once to store the
content itself. This can cause problem in case any of these file
changed, within the storage time.
To fix this behaviour and ensure the integrity of the tracing data, we:
- read debugfs/proc file into the temp file
- get temp file size and dump it to the pipe
- dump the temp file contents to the pipe

Following the 'perf report' model we don't zap hist_entry instances from
the rb tree, we just keep them with he->filtered set to a mask of the
filters applied to it (thread, parent, DSO so far).
In top we need to decay even filtered entries, but we better not touch
total_period for them...
Now everything seems to work when filters are applied on top as they
worked in 'report', i.e. both dynamic and static hist entry browsing
works with filters.

TUI help states for multiple event sessions the TAB/UNTAB keys are used
to switch events. For single event sessions (e.g., the default) the tab
key currently causes the tui to exit. Change that to do nothing since
there is not no second event to switch to.

Feature bitmap is declared as an array of unsigned longs -- not good
since its size can differ between the host that generated the data file
and the host analyzing the file.
We need to handle endianness, but we don't know the size of the unsigned
long where the file was generated. Take a best guess at determining it:
try 64-bit swap first (ie., file created on a 64-bit host), and check if
the hostname feature bit is set (this feature bit is forced on as of
fbe96f2). If the bit is not, undo the 64-bit swap and try a 32-bit
swap. If the hostname bit is still not set (e.g., older data file), punt
and fallback to the original behavior -- clearing all feature bits and
setting buildid.

The selection and scroll bar are really needed only when the user starts
navigating, before that it just provide distractions.
This also brings the initial screen to look more like the stdio UI,
which more people are used to.
The new code is flexible enough that menu like browsers can opt out and
start with those UI elements.

When compiling an i386_defconfig kernel with
gcc-4.6.1-9.fc15.i686, I noticed a warning about the asm operand
for test_bit in kprobes' can_boost. I discovered that this
caused only the first long of twobyte_is_boostable[] to be
output.
Jakub filed and fixed gcc PR50571 to correct the warning and
this output issue. But to solve it for less current gcc, we can
make kprobes' twobyte_is_boostable[] volatile, and it won't be
optimized out.

With underlying dynamic data structures we need to invalidate pointers
to them after a timer, as that entry may have vanished (decayed in top,
for instance).
I forgot about browser_ui->top. Fix it by resetting it to null after a
timer. The seek operation from SEEK_SET will then set it to a valid
entry because it starts from rb_first(&hists->entries).

The trace_pipe_raw handler holds a cached page from the time the file
is opened to the time it is closed. The cached page is used to handle
the case of the user space buffer being smaller than what was read from
the ring buffer. The left over buffer is held in the cache so that the
next read will continue where the data left off.
After EOF is returned (no more data in the buffer), the index of
the cached page is set to zero. If a user app reads the page again
after EOF, the check in the buffer will see that the cached page
is less than page size and will return the cached page again. This
will cause reading the trace_pipe_raw again after EOF to return
duplicate data, making the output look like the time went backwards
but instead data is just repeated.
The fix is to not reset the index right after all data is read
from the cache, but to reset it after all data is read and more
data exists in the ring buffer.

tracing_enabled option is deprecated.
To start/stop tracing, write to /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_on
without tracing_enabled. This patch is based on Linux 3.1.0-rc1

When using multiple events the 'top' and 'report' tools will first
present the user with a menu to choose the event to browse.
After that the user can either press <- to go back to the menu and
choose another event or instead press TAB to go the next event without
having to go back to the menu or shift-TAB (UNTAB) to go the previous
event, useful to quickly visually see if multiple events are correlated.
The handling of each hists browser return was broken by the ed7e566,
that combined both switches, the first that was for choosing the event
and the second that was for checking if switching to the next event
without passing thru the events menu.
Repeat with me: Don't be clever like that.
Fix it by moving the switch to right after the call to the hists
browser, making abundantly clear that the two switches are unrelated.
This also fixes a compiler warning about the 'pos' variable being
possibly used unitialized.

We were removing only when using a --sort order that needs collapsing,
while we also use it in the threaded case, causing memory corruption
because we were scribbling freed hist entries, oops.

To do that we needed to stop using newtForm, as we don't want libnewt to
catch the xterm resize signal.
Remove some more newt calls and instead use the underlying libslang
directly. In time tools/perf will use just libslang.

In browsers that access dynamic underlying data structures, like in the
hists browser and its hist_entry rb_tree, we need to revalidate any
reference to the underlying data structure, because they can have gone
away, decayed.
This fixes a problem where after a while the top entries get behind the
top of the screen, i.e. the top_idx stays at 0, which means it is at the
first entry in the rb_tree when in fact it wasn't because the
browser->top didn't got revalidated after the timer ran and the
underlying data structure got updated.

When doing intense tracing, the kmalloc inside trace_marker can
introduce side effects to what is being traced.
As trace_marker() is used by userspace to inject data into the
kernel ring buffer, it needs to do so with the least amount
of intrusion to the operations of the kernel or the user space
application.
As the ring buffer is designed to write directly into the buffer
without the need to make a temporary buffer, and userspace already
went through the hassle of knowing how big the write will be,
we can simply pin the userspace pages and write the data directly
into the buffer. This improves the impact of tracing via trace_marker
tremendously!
Thanks to Peter Zijlstra and Thomas Gleixner for pointing out the
use of get_user_pages_fast() and kmap_atomic().

As the function tracer is very intrusive, lots of self checks are
performed on the tracer and if something is found to be strange
it will shut itself down keeping it from corrupting the rest of the
kernel. This shutdown may still allow functions to be traced, as the
tracing only stops new modifications from happening. Trying to stop
the function tracer itself can cause more harm as it requires code
modification.
Although a WARN_ON() is executed, a user may not notice it. To help
the user see that something isn't right with the tracing of the system
a big warning is added to the output of the tracer that lets the user
know that their data may be incomplete.

Fix kprobe-tracer not to delete a probe if the probe is in use.
In that case, delete operation will return -EBUSY.
This bug can cause a kernel panic if enabled probes are deleted
during perf record.
(Add some probes on functions)
sh-4.2# perf probe --del probe:\*
sh-4.2# exit
(kernel panic)
This is originally reported on the fedora bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=742383
I've also checked that this problem doesn't happen on
tracepoints when module removing because perf event
locks target module.
$ sudo ./perf record -e xfs:\* -aR sh
sh-4.2# rmmod xfs
ERROR: Module xfs is in use
sh-4.2# exit
