perf tools: Move all users of event_name to perf_evsel__name

2012-06-19T16:06:20Z

So that we don't use global variables that could make us misreport event names when having a multi window top, for instance.

perf top: Convert to struct perf_target

2012-05-02T18:20:30Z

Use struct perf_target as it is introduced by previous patch. This is a preparation of further changes.

perf tools: Allow multiple threads or processes in record, stat, top

2012-02-14T00:54:11Z

Allow a user to collect events for multiple threads or processes using a comma separated list. e.g., collect data on a VM and its vhost thread: perf top -p 21483,21485 perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd perf record -p 21483,21485 or monitoring vcpu threads perf top -t 21488,21489 perf stat -t 21488,21489 -ddd perf record -t 21488,21489 Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Thomas Gleixner Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1328718772-16688-1-git-send-email-dsahern@gmail.com Signed-off-by: David Ahern Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Introduce per user view

2012-01-24T21:47:37Z

The new --uid command line option will show only the tasks for a given user, using the proc interface to figure out the existing tasks. Kernel work is needed to close races at startup, but this should already be useful in many use cases.

perf top: Reuse the 'report' hist_entry/hists classes

2011-10-07T19:56:44Z

This actually fixes several problems we had in the old 'perf top': 1. Unresolved symbols not show, limitation that came from the old "KernelTop" codebase, to solve it we would need to do changes that would make sym_entry have most of the hist_entry fields. 2. It was using the number of samples, not the sum of sample->period. And brings the --sort code that allows us to have all the views in 'perf report', for instance: [root@emilia ~]# perf top --sort dso PerfTop: 5903 irqs/sec kernel:77.5% exact: 0.0% [1000Hz cycles], (all, 8 CPUs) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 31.59% libcrypto.so.1.0.0 21.55% [kernel] 18.57% libpython2.6.so.1.0 7.04% libc-2.12.so 6.99% _backend_agg.so 4.72% sshd 1.48% multiarray.so 1.39% libfreetype.so.6.3.22 1.37% perf 0.71% libgobject-2.0.so.0.2200.5 0.53% [tg3] 0.48% libglib-2.0.so.0.2200.5 0.44% libstdc++.so.6.0.13 0.40% libcairo.so.2.10800.8 0.38% libm-2.12.so 0.34% umath.so 0.30% libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0.1800.9 0.22% libpthread-2.12.so 0.20% libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.1800.9 0.20% librt-2.12.so 0.15% _path.so 0.13% libpango-1.0.so.0.2800.1 0.11% libatlas.so.3.0 0.09% ft2font.so 0.09% libpangoft2-1.0.so.0.2800.1 0.08% libX11.so.6.3.0 0.07% [vdso] 0.06% cyclictest ^C All the filter lists can be used as well: --dsos, --comms, --symbols, etc. The 'perf report' TUI is also reused, being possible to apply all the zoom operations, do annotation, etc. This change will allow multiple simplifications in the symbol system as well, that will be detailed in upcoming changesets.

perf top: Remove redundant syme->origin field

2011-03-11T16:28:45Z

We can get it from syme->map->dso->kernel (that should be renamed to origin, but leave this for another patch).

perf top: Remove redundant perf_top->sym_counter

2011-03-11T16:28:45Z

We can get that counter index from perf_top->sym_evsel->idx instead. Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Stephane Eranian Cc: Tom Zanussi LKML-Reference: Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf top: Don't let events to eat up whole header line

2011-03-10T13:55:00Z

Passing multiple events might force out information about pid/tid/cpu. Attached patch leaves 30 characters for this info at the expense of the events' names.

perf top: Fix events overflow in top command

2011-03-10T13:54:13Z

The snprintf function returns number of printed characters even if it cross the size parameter. So passing enough events via '-e' parameter will cause segmentation fault. It's reproduced by following command: perf top -e `perf list | grep Tracepoint | awk -F'[' '\ {gsub(/[[:space:]]+/,"",$1);array[FNR]=$1}END{outputs=array[1];\ for (i=2;i<=FNR;i++){ outputs=outputs "," array[i];};print outputs}'` Attached patch is adding SNPRINTF macro that provides the overflow check and returns actuall number of printed characters.
