perf cs-etm: Properly set the value of 'old' and 'head' in snapshot mode

2019-08-04T07:33:18Z

[ Upstream commit e45c48a9a4d20ebc7b639a62c3ef8f4b08007027 ] This patch adds the necessary intelligence to properly compute the value of 'old' and 'head' when operating in snapshot mode. That way we can get the latest information in the AUX buffer and be compatible with the generic AUX ring buffer mechanic. Tester notes: > Leo, have you had the chance to test/review this one? Suzuki? Sure. I applied this patch on the perf/core branch (with latest commit 3e4fbf36c1e3 'perf augmented_raw_syscalls: Move reading filename to the loop') and passed testing with below steps: # perf record -e cs_etm/@tmc_etr0/ -S -m,64 --per-thread ./sort & [1] 19097 Bubble sorting array of 30000 elements # kill -USR2 19097 # kill -USR2 19097 # kill -USR2 19097 [ perf record: Woken up 4 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.753 MB perf.data ] Signed-off-by: Mathieu Poirier Tested-by: Leo Yan Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Suzuki Poulouse Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190605161633.12245-1-mathieu.poirier@linaro.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

perf tools: Add coresight etm PMU record capabilities

2016-09-22T15:19:40Z

Coresight ETMs are IP blocks used to perform HW assisted tracing on a CPU core. This patch introduce the required auxiliary API functions allowing the perf core to interact with a tracer.

perf probe: Support probing on offline cross-arch binary

2016-09-01T15:41:09Z

Support probing on offline cross-architecture binary by adding getting the target machine arch from ELF and choose correct register string for the machine. Here is an example: ----- $ perf probe --vmlinux=./vmlinux-arm --definition 'do_sys_open $params' p:probe/do_sys_open do_sys_open+0 dfd=%r5:s32 filename=%r1:u32 flags=%r6:s32 mode=%r3:u16 ----- Here, we can get probe/do_sys_open from above and append it to to the target machine's tracing/kprobe_events file in the tracefs mountput, usually /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events (or /sys/kernel/tracing/kprobe_events).

perf unwind: Separate local/remote libunwind config

2016-06-07T15:08:52Z

CONFIG_LIBUNWIND/NO_LIBUNWIND are changed to CONFIG_LOCAL_LIBUNWIND/ NO_LOCAL_LIBUNWIND for retaining local unwind features. The new CONFIG_LIBUNWIND stands for either local or remote or both unwind are supported, and NO_LIBUNWIND means that neither local nor remote unwind is supported. LIBUNWIND_LIBS is eliminated in LDFLAGS if local libunwind is not supported.

perf build: Add arch x86 objects building

2015-02-12T16:12:01Z

Move the x86 arch objects building under build framework to be included in the libperf build object. Adding also arch/$(ARCH)/Build files for the rest of the archs. The reason for this is that in arch/Build we now do: +libperf-y += $(ARCH)/ which would make the build to fail on other architectures, because the build framework requires 'Build' file in nested directories and this patch adds it only for x86.
