perf hists: Fix determination of a callchain node's childlessness

2016-05-04T21:49:14Z

commit 909890355507e92bdaf648e73870f6b5df606da8 upstream. The 4b3a3212233a ("perf hists browser: Support flat callchains") commit over-aggressively tried to optimize callchain_node__init_have_children(). That lead to --tui mode not allowing to expand call chain elements if a call chain element had only one parent. That's why --inverted callgraphs looked halfway sane, but plain ones didn't. Revert that individual optimization, it wasn't really related to the rest of the commit.

perf hists browser: Fix dump to show correct callchain style

2016-05-04T21:49:13Z

commit 0c841c6c16f320704f75970bbe6a9800c53e6cf5 upstream. The commit 8c430a348699 ("perf hists browser: Support folded callchains") missed to update hist_browser__dump() so it always shows graph-style callchains regardless of current setting. To fix that, factor out callchain printing code and rename the existing function which prints graph-style callchain.

perf hists browser: Only offer symbol scripting when a symbol is under the cursor

commit c221acb0f970d3b80d72c812cda19c121acf5d52 upstream.

perf ui/tui: Print helpline message as is

2016-01-12T15:42:08Z

When a tip message contains a percent sign, it was treated printf format specifier so broken string was printed like below. Tip: Limit to show entries above 577nly: perf report --percent-limit 5 ^^^ As ui_browser__show receives format string, pass additional "%s" so that the help (tip) message can be printed as is.

perf tools: Skip dynamic fields not defined for current event

2016-01-06T23:11:12Z

When there are multiple events, each dynamic sort key is defined just for one event. In this case other events will always show "N/A" for those fields. But they are meaningless and consume precious screen width. Let's skip those undefined dynamic fields. $ perf record -e kmem:kmalloc,kmem:kfree -a sleep 1 $ perf report -s 'comm,kmalloc.*' --stdio # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # # # Total Lost Samples: 0 # # Samples: 20K of event 'kmem:kmalloc' # Event count (approx.): 20533 # # Overhead Command call_site ptr bytes_req bytes_alloc gfp_flags # ........ ....... .................. .................. ......... ........... ................... # 99.89% perf ffffffffa01d4396 0xffff8803ffb79720 96 96 GFP_NOFS|GFP_ZERO 0.06% sleep ffffffff8114e1cd 0xffff8803d228a000 4096 4096 GFP_KERNEL 0.03% perf ffffffff811d6ae6 0xffff8803f7678f00 240 256 GFP_KERNEL|GFP_ZERO 0.00% perf ffffffff812263c1 0xffff880406172380 128 128 GFP_KERNEL 0.00% perf ffffffff812264b9 0xffff8803ffac1600 504 512 GFP_KERNEL 0.00% perf ffffffff81226634 0xffff880401dc5280 28 32 GFP_KERNEL 0.00% sleep ffffffff81226da9 0xffff8803ffac3a00 392 512 GFP_KERNEL # Samples: 20K of event 'kmem:kfree' # Event count (approx.): 20597 # # Overhead Command # ........ .............. # 99.63% perf 0.14% sleep 0.11% irq/36-iwlwifi 0.11% kworker/u16:0 0.01% Xorg 0.00% firefox Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim Acked-by: Jiri Olsa Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Steven Rostedt Cc: Wang Nan Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1450804030-29193-12-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf hists browser: Fix segfault if use symbol filter in cmdline

2015-12-07T15:02:35Z

If feed perf a symbol filter in cmdline and the result is empty, pressing 'Enter' in the hist browser causes crash: # ./perf report perf.data <-- Common mistake for beginners Then press 'Enter': perf: Segmentation fault -------- backtrace -------- /home/wangnan/perf[0x53e578] /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x3545f)[0x7f76bafe045f] /home/wangnan/perf[0x539dd4] /home/wangnan/perf(perf_evlist__tui_browse_hists+0x96)[0x53d216] /home/wangnan/perf(cmd_report+0x1b9f)[0x442c7f] /home/wangnan/perf[0x47efa2] /home/wangnan/perf(main+0x5f5)[0x432fa5] /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf4)[0x7f76bafccbd4] /home/wangnan/perf[0x4330d4] This is because 'perf.data' is interpreted as a symbol filter, and the result is empty, so selection is empty. However, hist_browser__toggle_fold() forgets to check it. This patch simply return false when selection is NULL.

perf hists browser: Reset selection when refresh

2015-12-07T15:02:12Z

With the following steps: Step 1: perf report Step 2: Use UP/DOWN to select an entry, don't press 'ENTER' Step 3: Use '/' to filter symbols, use a filter which returns empty result Step 4: Press 'ENTER' We see that, even if we have filtered all the symbols (and the main interface is empty), pressing 'ENTER' still selects one symbol. This behavior surprises the user. This patch resets browser->{he_,}selection in hist_browser__refresh() and lets it choose default selection. In this case browser->{he_,}selection keeps NULL so user won't see annotation item in menu.

perf hists browser: Add NULL pointer check to prevent crash

2015-12-07T15:02:11Z

Before this patch we can trigger a segfault by following steps: Step 0: Use 'perf record' to generate a perf.data without callchain Step 1: perf report Step 2: Use UP/DOWN to select an entry, don't press 'ENTER' Step 3: Use '/' to filter symbols, use a filter which returns empty result Step 4: Press 'ENTER' (notice here that the old selection is still there. This is another problem) Step 5: Press 'ENTER' to annotate that symbol Step 6: Press 'LEFT' to go out. Result: segfault: perf: Segmentation fault -------- backtrace -------- /home/wangnan/perf[0x53e568] /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x3545f)[0x7fba75d3245f] /home/wangnan/perf[0x537516] /home/wangnan/perf[0x533fef] /home/wangnan/perf[0x53b347] /home/wangnan/perf(perf_evlist__tui_browse_hists+0x96)[0x53d206] /home/wangnan/perf(cmd_report+0x1b9f)[0x442c7f] /home/wangnan/perf[0x47efa2] /home/wangnan/perf(main+0x5f5)[0x432fa5] /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf4)[0x7fba75d1ebd4] /home/wangnan/perf[0x4330d4] This is because in this case 'nd' could be NULL in ui_browser__hists_seek(), but that function never checks it. This patch adds checker for potential NULL pointer in that function. After this patch the above steps won't segfault.
