2016-05-30perf record: Robustify perf_event__synth_time_conv()Wang Nan
It is possible that all events in an evlist are overwritable. perf_event__synth_time_conv() should not crash in this case. record__pick_pc() is used to check avaliability.

2016-04-01perf jit: Add support for using TSC as a timestampAdrian Hunter
Intel PT uses TSC as a timestamp, so add support for using TSC instead of the monotonic clock. Use of TSC is selected by an environment variable "JITDUMP_USE_ARCH_TIMESTAMP" and flagged in the jitdump file with flag JITDUMP_FLAGS_ARCH_TIMESTAMP.

2016-03-31perf tools: Add time conversion eventAdrian Hunter
Intel PT uses the time members from the perf_event_mmap_page to convert between TSC and perf time. Due to a lack of foresight when Intel PT was implemented, those time members were recorded in the (implementation dependent) AUXTRACE_INFO event, the structure of which is generally inaccessible outside of the Intel PT decoder. However now the conversion between TSC and perf time is needed when processing a jitdump file when Intel PT has been used for tracing. So add a user event to record the time members. 'perf record' will synthesize the event if the information is available. And session processing will put a copy of the event on the session so that tools like 'perf inject' can easily access it.

It is possible to record a perf.data file on one architecture and process it on another. Consequently, TSC conversion functions need to be moved out of the arch directory.

2013-09-20perf: Fix capabilities bitfield compatibility in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'Peter Zijlstra
Solve the problems around the broken definition of perf_event_mmap_page:: cap_usr_time and cap_usr_rdpmc fields which used to overlap, partially fixed by: 860f085b74e9 ("perf: Fix broken union in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'") The problem with the fix (merged in v3.12-rc1 and not yet released officially), noticed by Vince Weaver is that the new behavior is not detectable by new user-space, and that due to the reuse of the field names it's easy to mis-compile a binary if old headers are used on a new kernel or new headers are used on an old kernel. To solve all that make this change explicit, detectable and self-contained, by iterating the ABI the following way: - Always clear bit 0, and rename it to usrpage->cap_bit0, to at least not confuse old user-space binaries. RDPMC will be marked as unavailable to old binaries but that's within the ABI, this is a capability bit. - Rename bit 1 to ->cap_bit0_is_deprecated and always set it to 1, so new libraries can reliably detect that bit 0 is deprecated and perma-zero without having to check the kernel version. - Use bits 2, 3, 4 for the newly defined, correct functionality: cap_user_rdpmc : 1, /* The RDPMC instruction can be used to read counts */ cap_user_time : 1, /* The time_* fields are used */ cap_user_time_zero : 1, /* The time_zero field is used */ - Rename all the bitfield names in perf_event.h to be different from the old names, to make sure it's not possible to mis-compile it accidentally with old assumptions. The 'size' field can then be used in the future to add new fields and it will act as a natural ABI version indicator as well. Also adjust tools/perf/ userspace for the new definitions, noticed by Adrian Hunter.

2013-07-23perf tools: Add test for converting perf time to/from TSCAdrian Hunter
The test uses the newly added cap_usr_time_zero and time_zero of perf_event_mmap_page. TSC from rdtsc is compared with the time from 2 perf events. The test passes if the calculated times are all in the correct order.
