perf: Fix endianness argument compatibility with OPT_BOOLEAN() and introduce OPT_INCR()

2010-07-05T18:21:54Z

commit c05556421742eb47f80301767653a4bcb19de9de upstream. Parsing an option from the command line with OPT_BOOLEAN on a bool data type would not work on a big-endian machine due to the manner in which the boolean was being cast into an int and incremented. For example, running 'perf probe --list' on a PowerPC machine would fail to properly set the list_events bool and would therefore print out the usage information and terminate. This patch makes OPT_BOOLEAN work as expected with a bool datatype. For cases where the original OPT_BOOLEAN was intentionally being used to increment an int each time it was passed in on the command line, this patch introduces OPT_INCR with the old behaviour of OPT_BOOLEAN (the verbose variable is currently the only such example of this). I have reviewed every use of OPT_BOOLEAN to verify that a true C99 bool was passed. Where integers were used, I verified that they were only being used for boolean logic and changed them to bools to ensure that they would not be mistakenly used as ints. The major exception was the verbose variable which now uses OPT_INCR instead of OPT_BOOLEAN. Signed-off-by: Ian Munsie Acked-by: David S.

perf session: Change perf_session post processing functions to take histogram tree

2010-03-10T12:53:49Z

Now that report can store historgrams for multiple events we need to be able to do the post processing work for each histogram. This patch changes the post processing functions so that they can be called individually for each event's histogram.

perf session: Change add_hist_entry to take the tree root instead of session

2010-03-10T12:53:47Z

In order to minimize the impact of storing multiple events in a report this function will now take the root of the histogram tree so that the logic for selecting the proper tree can be inserted before the call.

perf annotate: Defer allocating sym_priv->hist array

2010-02-25T16:39:14Z

Because symbol->end is not fixed up at symbol_filter time, only after all symbols for a DSO are loaded, and that, for asm symbols, may be bogus, causing segfaults when hits happen in these symbols.

perf annotate: Fix it for non-prelinked *.so

2010-02-04T08:33:27Z

The problem was we were incorrectly calculating objdump addresses for sym->start and sym->end, look: For simple ET_DYN type DSO (*.so) with one function, objdump -dS output is something like this: 000004ac : int my_strlen(const char *s) 4ac: 55 push %ebp 4ad: 89 e5 mov %esp,%ebp 4af: 83 ec 10 sub $0x10,%esp { i.e. we have relative-to-dso-mapping IPs (=RIP) there. For ET_EXEC type and probably for prelinked libs as well (sorry can't test - I don't use prelink) objdump outputs absolute IPs, e.g. 08048604 : extern "C" int zz_strlen(const char *s) 8048604: 55 push %ebp 8048605: 89 e5 mov %esp,%ebp 8048607: 83 ec 10 sub $0x10,%esp { So, if sym->start is always relative to dso mapping(*), we'll have to unmap it for ET_EXEC like cases, and leave as is for ET_DYN cases. (*) and it is - we've explicitely made it relative. Look for adjust_symbols handling in dso__load_sym() Previously we were always unmapping sym->start and for ET_DYN dsos resulting addresses were wrong, and so objdump output was empty. The end result was that perf annotate output for symbols from non-prelinked *.so had always 0.00% percents only, which is wrong. To fix it, let's introduce a helper for converting rip to objdump address, and also let's document what map_ip() and unmap_ip() do -- I had to study sources for several hours to understand it.
