2012-03-28selftests: launch individual selftests from the main MakefileFrederic Weisbecker
Remove the run_tests script and launch the selftests by calling "make run_tests" from the selftests top directory instead. This delegates to the Makefile in each selftest directory, where it is decided how to launch the local test. This removes the need to add each selftest directory to the now removed "run_tests" top script.

2012-03-28perf probe: Finder fails to resolve function name to addressPrashanth Nageshappa
If DIE entries corresponding to declarations appear before definition entry, probe finder returns error instead of continuing to look further for a definition entry. This patch ensures we reach to the DIE entry corresponding to the definition and get the function address. V2: A simpler solution based on Masami's suggestion.

2012-03-26perf tools: Fix bug in raw sample parsingStephane Eranian
In perf_event__parse_sample(), the array variable was not incremented by the amount of data used by the raw_data. That was okay until we added PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK which depends on the array variable pointing to the beginning of the branch stack data. But that was not the case if branch stack was combined with raw mode sampling. That led to bogus branch stack addresses and count. The bug would show up with: $ perf record -R -b foo This patch fixes the problem by correctly moving the array pointer forward for RAW samples.

2012-03-26perf tools: Fix display of first level of callchainsFrederic Weisbecker
The callchain stdio mode display was written using a sorted by symbol report. In this mode we have only one callchain root per hist so we forgot to handle cases where we have multiple callchain root, as in per dso sorting for example. Fix this by handling these roots like any other branch, with the hist as the parent. Before: 1.97% libpthread-2.12.1.so | --- __libc_write create_worker bench_sched_messaging cmd_bench run_builtin main __libc_start_main | --- __libc_read create_worker bench_sched_messaging cmd_bench run_builtin main __libc_start_main After: 1.97% libpthread-2.12.1.so | |--36.97%-- __libc_write | create_worker | bench_sched_messaging | cmd_bench | run_builtin | main | __libc_start_main | |--31.47%-- __libc_read | create_worker | bench_sched_messaging | cmd_bench | run_builtin | main | __libc_start_main ...

The event modifier needs to be applied only on the event definition it is attached to.

2012-03-21ktest: Allow a test to override REBOOT_ON_SUCCESSSteven Rostedt
The option REBOOT_ON_SUCCESS is global, and will have the machine reboot the the box if all tests are successful. But a test may not want the machine to reboot, and perhaps have the kernel it loaded be used to install the next kernel. Or the last test may set up a kernel that the user may want to look at. In this case, the user could have the global option REBOOT_ON_SUCCESS be true, but if a test is defined to run at the end, that test can override the global option and keep the kernel it installed for the user to log in with.

Currently the option used to scp both the modules to the target as well as the kernel image are the same (SCP_TO_TARGET). But some embedded boards may require them to be different. The modules may need to be put directly on the board, but the kernel image may need to go to a tftpserver.

When IGNORE_ERRORS is set, ktest will not fail a test if a backtrace is detected. But this can be an issue if the user added it in the config but forgot to remove it. They may be left wondering why their test did not fail, or even worse, why their bisect gave the wrong commit. Add a warning in the output if IGNORE_WARNINGS is set, and ktest detects a kernel error.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull perf events changes for v3.4 from Ingo Molnar: - New "hardware based branch profiling" feature both on the kernel and the tooling side, on CPUs that support it. (modern x86 Intel CPUs with the 'LBR' hardware feature currently.) This new feature is basically a sophisticated 'magnifying glass' for branch execution - something that is pretty difficult to extract from regular, function histogram centric profiles. The simplest mode is activated via 'perf record -b', and the result looks like this in perf report: $ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy $ perf report -b --sort=symbol 52.34% [.] main [.] f1 24.04% [.] f1 [.] f3 23.60% [.] f1 [.] f2 0.01% [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn [k] _IO_file_overflow 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] strchrnul 0.01% [k] __printf [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal 0.01% [k] main [k] __printf This output shows from/to branch columns and shows the highest percentage (from,to) jump combinations - i.e. the most likely taken branches in the system. "branches" can also include function calls and any other synchronous and asynchronous transitions of the instruction pointer that are not 'next instruction' - such as system calls, traps, interrupts, etc. This feature comes with (hopefully intuitive) flat ascii and TUI support in perf report. - Various 'perf annotate' visual improvements for us assembly junkies. It will now recognize function calls in the TUI and by hitting enter you can follow the call (recursively) and back, amongst other improvements. - Multiple threads/processes recording support in perf record, perf stat, perf top - which is activated via a comma-list of PIDs: perf top -p 21483,21485 perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd perf record -p 21483,21485 - Support for per UID views, via the --uid paramter to perf top, perf report, etc. For example 'perf top --uid mingo' will only show the tasks that I am running, excluding other users, root, etc. - Jump label restructurings and improvements - this includes the factoring out of the (hopefully much clearer) include/linux/static_key.h generic facility: struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE; ... if (static_key_false(&key)) do unlikely code else do likely code ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... The static_key_false() branch will be generated into the code with as little impact to the likely code path as possible. the static_key_slow_*() APIs flip the branch via live kernel code patching. This facility can now be used more widely within the kernel to micro-optimize hot branches whose likelihood matches the static-key usage and fast/slow cost patterns. - SW function tracer improvements: perf support and filtering support. - Various hardenings of the perf.data ABI, to make older perf.data's smoother on newer tool versions, to make new features integrate more smoothly, to support cross-endian recording/analyzing workflows better, etc. - Restructuring of the kprobes code, the splitting out of 'optprobes', and a corner case bugfix. - Allow the tracing of kernel console output (printk). - Improvements/fixes to user-space RDPMC support, allowing user-space self-profiling code to extract PMU counts without performing any system calls, while playing nice with the kernel side. - 'perf bench' improvements - ... and lots of internal restructurings, cleanups and fixes that made these features possible.

To launch "perf report" using the new GTK interface just type: $ perf report --gtk The interface is somewhat limited in features at the moment: - No callgraph support - No KVM guest profiling support - No color coding for percentages - No sorting from the UI - ..and many, many more!

When event group is enabled for forked task (i.e. no target task/cpu was specified) all events were disabled and marked ->enable_on_exec.

2012-03-14perf tools: Incorrect use of snprintf results in SEGVAnton Blanchard
I have a workload where perf top scribbles over the stack and we SEGV. What makes it interesting is that an snprintf is causing this. The workload is a c++ gem that has method names over 3000 characters long, but snprintf is designed to avoid overrunning buffers. So what went wrong? The problem is we assume snprintf returns the number of characters written: ret += repsep_snprintf(bf + ret, size - ret, "[%c] ", self->level); ... ret += repsep_snprintf(bf + ret, size - ret, "%s", self->ms.sym->name); Unfortunately this is not how snprintf works. snprintf returns the number of characters that would have been written if there was enough space. In the above case, if the first snprintf returns a value larger than size, we pass a negative size into the second snprintf and happily scribble over the stack. If you have 3000 character c++ methods thats a lot of stack to trample. This patch fixes repsep_snprintf by clamping the value at size - 1 which is the maximum snprintf can write before adding the NULL terminator. I get the sinking feeling that there are a lot of other uses of snprintf that have this same bug, we should audit them all.
