perf tools: Add attr->mmap2 support

2013-09-11T13:09:32Z

This patch adds support for the new PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 record type exposed by the kernel. This is an extended PERF_RECORD_MMAP record. It adds for each file-backed mapping the device major, minor number and the inode number and generation. This triplet uniquely identifies the source of a file-backed mapping. It can be used to detect identical virtual mappings between processes, for instance. The patch will prefer MMAP2 over MMAP.

perf tools: Add a function to calculate sample event size

2013-08-29T19:44:26Z

Add perf_event__sample_event_size() which can be used when synthesizing sample events to determine how big the resulting event will be, and therefore how much memory to allocate.

perf tools: Add missing 'abi' member to 'struct regs_dump'

2013-08-29T19:10:58Z

And store the parsed value there. Note that the 'abi' is 0 (no registers), 1 (32-bit registers) or 2 (64-bit registers), but the registers are anyway copied one-by-one as 64-bit values onto the event i.e. see 'perf_output_sample_regs()' Acked-by: Jiri Olsa Cc: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Stephane Eranian Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1377591794-30553-9-git-send-email-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Add support for PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER

2013-08-29T19:09:31Z

Enable parsing of samples with sample format bit PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER. In addition, if the kernel supports it, prefer it to selecting PERF_SAMPLE_ID thereby allowing non-matching sample types.

perf tools: Remove references to struct ip_event

2013-08-29T18:29:28Z

The ip_event struct assumes fixed positions for ip, pid and tid. That is no longer true with the addition of PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER. The information is anyway in struct sample, so use that instead.

perf tools: Remove filter parameter of perf_event__preprocess_sample()

2013-08-12T13:31:11Z

Now that the symbol filter is recorded on the machine there is no need to pass it to perf_event__preprocess_sample(). So remove it.

perf tools: Add support for parsing PERF_SAMPLE_READ sample type

2013-08-07T20:35:20Z

Adding support to parse out the PERF_SAMPLE_READ sample bits. The code contains both single and group format specification. This code parse out and prepare PERF_SAMPLE_READ data into the perf_sample struct. It will be used for group leader sampling feature comming in shortly.

perf tools: Remove event types framework completely

2013-07-15T19:28:22Z

Removing event types framework completely. The only remainder (apart from few comments) is following enum: enum perf_user_event_type { ... PERF_RECORD_HEADER_EVENT_TYPE = 65, /* deprecated */ ... } It's kept as deprecated, resulting in error when processed in perf_session__process_user_event function.

perf tools: Add mem access sampling core support

2013-04-01T15:20:13Z

This patch adds the sorting and histogram support functions to enable profiling of memory accesses. The following sorting orders are added: - symbol_daddr: data address symbol (or raw address) - dso_daddr: data address shared object - locked: access uses locked transaction - tlb : TLB access - mem : memory level of the access (L1, L2, L3, RAM, ...) - snoop: access snoop mode Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1359040242-8269-12-git-send-email-eranian@google.com [ committer note: changed to cope with fc5871ed, the move of methods to machine.[ch], and the rename of dsrc to data_src, to match the change made in the PERF_SAMPLE_DSRC in a previous patch. ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
