2010-08-02perf session: Free the ref_reloc_sym memory at the right placeArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Which is at perf_session__destroy_kernel_maps, counterpart to the perf_session__create_kernel_maps where the kmap structure is located, just after the vmlinux_maps. Make it also check if the kernel maps were actually created, which may not be the case if, for instance, perf_session__new can't complete due to permission problems in, for instance, a 'perf report' case, when a segfault will take place, that is how this was noticed. The problem was introduced in d65a458, thus post .35. This also adds code to release guest machines as them are also created in perf_session__create_kernel_maps, so should be deleted on this newly introduced counterpart, perf_session__destroy_kernel_maps.

2010-07-30perf tools: Release thread resources on PERF_RECORD_EXITArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
For long running sessions with many threads with short lifetimes the amount of memory that the buildid process takes is too much. Since we don't have hist_entries that may be pointing to them, we can just release the resources associated with each thread when the exit (PERF_RECORD_EXIT) event is received. For normal processing we need to annotate maps with hits, and thus hist_entries pointing to it and drop the ones that had none. Will be done in a followup patch. Cc: David S.

2010-07-27perf report: Don't abbreviate file paths relative to the cwdDave Martin
This avoids around some problems where the full path is executables and DSOs it needed for finding debug symbols on platforms with separated debug symbol files such as Ubuntu. This is simpler than tracking an extra name for each image. The only impact should be that paths in verbose output from the perf tools become absolute, instead of relative to .

2010-02-07perf top: Fix annotate for userspaceKirill Smelkov
First, for programs and prelinked libraries, annotate code was fooled by objdump output IPs (src->eip in the code) being wrongly converted to absolute IPs. In such case there were no conversion needed, but in src->eip = strtoull(src->line, NULL, 16); src->eip = map->unmap_ip(map, src->eip); // = eip + map->start - map->pgoff we were reading absolute address from objdump (e.g. 8048604) and then almost doubling it, because eip & map->start are approximately close for small programs. Needless to say, that later, in record_precise_ip() there was no matching with real runtime IPs. And second, like with `perf annotate` the problem with non-prelinked *.so was that we were doing rip -> objdump address conversion wrong. Also, because unlike `perf annotate`, `perf top` code does annotation based on absolute IPs for performance reasons(*), new helper for mapping objdump addresse to IP is introduced. (*) we get samples info in absolute IPs, and since we do lots of hit-testing on absolute IPs at runtime in record_precise_ip(), it's better to convert objdump addresses to IPs once and do no conversion at runtime. I also had to fix how objdump output is parsed (with hardcoded 8/16 characters format, which was inappropriate for ET_DYN dsos with small addresses like '4ac') Also note, that not all objdump output lines has associtated IPs, e.g. look at source lines here: 000004ac <my_strlen>: extern "C" int my_strlen(const char *s) 4ac: 55 push %ebp 4ad: 89 e5 mov %esp,%ebp 4af: 83 ec 10 sub $0x10,%esp { int len = 0; 4b2: c7 45 fc 00 00 00 00 movl $0x0,-0x4(%ebp) 4b9: eb 08 jmp 4c3 <my_strlen+0x17> while (*s) { ++len; 4bb: 83 45 fc 01 addl $0x1,-0x4(%ebp) ++s; 4bf: 83 45 08 01 addl $0x1,0x8(%ebp) So we mark them with eip=0, and ignore such lines in annotate lookup code.

2010-02-04perf annotate: Fix it for non-prelinked *.soKirill Smelkov
The problem was we were incorrectly calculating objdump addresses for sym->start and sym->end, look: For simple ET_DYN type DSO (*.so) with one function, objdump -dS output is something like this: 000004ac <my_strlen>: int my_strlen(const char *s) 4ac: 55 push %ebp 4ad: 89 e5 mov %esp,%ebp 4af: 83 ec 10 sub $0x10,%esp { i.e. we have relative-to-dso-mapping IPs (=RIP) there. For ET_EXEC type and probably for prelinked libs as well (sorry can't test - I don't use prelink) objdump outputs absolute IPs, e.g. 08048604 <zz_strlen>: extern "C" int zz_strlen(const char *s) 8048604: 55 push %ebp 8048605: 89 e5 mov %esp,%ebp 8048607: 83 ec 10 sub $0x10,%esp { So, if sym->start is always relative to dso mapping(*), we'll have to unmap it for ET_EXEC like cases, and leave as is for ET_DYN cases. (*) and it is - we've explicitely made it relative. Look for adjust_symbols handling in dso__load_sym() Previously we were always unmapping sym->start and for ET_DYN dsos resulting addresses were wrong, and so objdump output was empty. The end result was that perf annotate output for symbols from non-prelinked *.so had always 0.00% percents only, which is wrong. To fix it, let's introduce a helper for converting rip to objdump address, and also let's document what map_ip() and unmap_ip() do -- I had to study sources for several hours to understand it.

2010-02-04perf symbols: Remove perf_session usage in symbols layerArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
I noticed while writing the first test in 'perf regtest' that to just test the symbol handling routines one needs to create a perf session, that is a layer centered on a perf.data file, events, etc, so I untied these layers. This reduces the complexity for the users as the number of parameters to most of the symbols and session APIs now was reduced while not adding more state to all the map instances by only having data that is needed to split the kernel (kallsyms and ELF symtab sections) maps and do vmlinux relocation on the main kernel map.
