perf cpu_map: Align cpu map synthesized events properly.

2018-11-13T19:12:17Z

[ Upstream commit 0ed149cf5239cc6e7e65bf00f769e8f1e91076c0 ] The size of the resulting cpu map can be smaller than a multiple of sizeof(u64), resulting in SIGBUS on cpus like Sparc as the next event will not be aligned properly.

perf machine: Synthesize and process mmap events for x86 PTI entry trampolines

2018-05-23T13:26:39Z

Like the kernel text, the location of x86 PTI entry trampolines must be recorded in the perf.data file. Like the kernel, synthesize a mmap event for that, and add processing for it.

perf machine: Allow for extra kernel maps

2018-05-22T13:59:22Z

Identify extra kernel maps by name so that they can be distinguished from the kernel map and module maps.

perf symbols: Unify symbol maps

2018-04-27T13:47:06Z

Remove the split of symbol tables for data (MAP__VARIABLE) and for functions (MAP__FUNCTION), its unneeded and there were various places doing two lookups to find a symbol, so simplify this. We still will consider only the symbols that matched the filters in place, i.e. see the (elf_(sec,sym)|symbol_type)__filter() routines in the patch, just so that we consider only the same symbols as before, to reduce the possibility of regressions. All the tests on 50-something build environments, in varios versions of lots of distros and cross build environments were performed without build regressions, as usual with all pull requests the other tests were also performed: 'perf test' and 'make -C tools/perf build-test'. Also this was done at a great granularity so that regressions can be bisected more easily.

perf thread: Make thread__find_map() search all maps

2018-04-26T16:47:17Z

We still have the split internally, but users don't see it anymore, simplifying the growing number of cases where we end up searching in the MAP__VARIABLE maps. This further paves the way for ditching the split.

Simulate having all symbols in just one tree by searching the still existing two trees. Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: David Ahern Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Wang Nan Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-uss70e8tvzzbzs326330t83q@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf machine: Introduce machine__kernel_maps()

2018-04-26T16:47:10Z

That returns the a data structure contained the ordered list of kernel modules + the main kernel maps, one more step in removing the MAP__{FUNCTION,VARIABLE} split.

perf thread: Make thread__find_symbol() return the symbol searched

2018-04-26T16:47:09Z

Instead of just returning it in al.sym, allowing for some simplification in its users, and to make it consistent with thread__find_map().
