When configuring event perf checked a wrong condition that user
specified both of freq (-F) and period (-c) or the event has no
default value. This worked because most of events don't have default
value and only tracepoint events have default of 1 (and it's not
desirable to change it for those events).
However, Andi's downloadable event patch changes the situation so it
cannot change the value for those events. Fix it by allowing override
the default value if user gives one of the options.
$ perf record -a -e uops_retired.all -F 4000 sleep 1

[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.325 MB perf.data (~14185 samples) ]
$ perf evlist -F
cpu/uops_retired.all/: sample_freq=4000

Improve error messages of 'perf probe --line' mode.
Currently 'perf probe' shows the "Debuginfo analysis failed" message with
an error code when the given symbol is not found:
-----
# perf probe -L page_cgroup_init_flatmem
Debuginfo analysis failed. (-2)
Error: Failed to show lines.
-----
But -2 (-ENOENT) means that the given source line or function was not
found. With this patch, 'perf probe' shows the correct error message:
-----
# perf probe -L page_cgroup_init_flatmem
Specified source line is not found.
Error: Failed to show lines.
-----
There is also another debug error code is shown in the same function
after get_real_path(). This removes that too.

Fix an error message when failed to find given address in --vars
mode.
Without this fix, perf probe -V doesn't show the final "Error"
message if it fails to find given source line. Moreover, it
tells it fails to find "variables" instead of the source line.
-----
# perf probe -V foo@bar
Failed to find variables at foo@bar (0)
-----
The result also shows mysterious error code. Actually the error
returns 0 or -ENOENT means that it just fails to find the address
of given source line. (0 means there is no matching address,
and -ENOENT means there is an entry(DIE) but it has no instance,
e.g. an empty inlined function)
This fixes it to show what happened and the final error message
as below.
-----
# perf probe -V foo@bar
Failed to find the address of foo@bar
Error: Failed to show vars.

Show error code and description only in verbose mode if 'perf probe'
command failed.
Current 'perf probe' shows error code with final error message, and that
is meaningless for many users.
This changes error messages to show the error code and its description
only in verbose mode (-v option).
Without this patch:
-----
# perf probe -a do_execve@hoge
Probe point 'do_execve@hoge' not found.
Error: Failed to add events. (-2)
-----
With this patch, normally the message doesn't show the misterious error
number:
-----
# perf probe -a do_execve@hoge
Probe point 'do_execve@hoge' not found.
Error: Failed to add events.
-----
And in verbose mode, it also shows additional error messages as below:
-----
# perf probe -va do_execve@hoge

symbol:do_execve file:hoge line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)

Improve the error message if we can not find given member in the given
structure. Currently perf probe shows a wrong error message as below.
-----
# perf probe getname_flags:65 "result->BOGUS"
result(type:filename) has no member BOGUS.
Failed to find 'result' in this function.
Error: Failed to add events. (-22)
-----
The first message is correct, but the second one is not, since we didn't
fail to find a variable but fails to find the member of given variable.
-----
# perf probe getname_flags:65 "result->BOGUS"
result(type:filename) has no member BOGUS.
Error: Failed to add events. (-22)
-----
With this patch, the error message shows only the first one. And if we
really failed to find given variable, it tells us so.
-----
# perf probe getname_flags:65 "BOGUS"
Failed to find 'BOGUS' in this function.
Error: Failed to add events. (-2)

In perf's 'mem-mode', one can get access to a whole bunch of details specific to a
particular sample instruction. A bunch of those details relate to the data
address.
One interesting thing you can do with data addresses is to convert them into a unique
cacheline they belong too. Organizing these data cachelines into similar groups and sorting
them can reveal cache contention.
This patch creates an alogorithm based on various sample details that can help group
entries together into data cachelines and allows 'perf report' to sort on it.
The algorithm relies on having proper mmap2 support in the kernel to help determine
if the memory map the data address belongs to is private to a pid or globally shared.
The alogortithm is as follows:
o group cpumodes together
o group entries with discovered maps together
o sort on major, minor, inode and inode generation numbers
o if userspace anon, then sort on pid
o sort on cachelines based on data addresses
The 'dcacheline' sort option in 'perf report' only works in 'mem-mode'.
Sample output:
#
# Samples: 206 of event 'cpu/mem-loads/pp'
# Total weight : 2534
# Sort order : dcacheline,pid
#
# Overhead Samples Data Cacheline Command: Pid
# ........ ............ ...................................................................... ..................
#

Note: Added a '+1' to symlen size in hists__calc_col_len to prevent the next column

This reverts commit 3090ffb5a2515990182f3f55b0688a7817325488.
Re-enable the mmap2 interface as we will have a user soon.
Since things have changed since perf disabled mmap2, small tweaks
to the revert had to be done:
o commit 9d4ecc88 forced (n!=8) to become (n<7)
o a new libunwind test needed updating to use mmap2 interface

With the Sebastian's change of handling num array argument (of raw
syscall enter), the script still failed to work like this:
$ perf record -e raw_syscalls:* sleep 1
$ perf script -g python
$ perf script -s perf-script.py
...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "perf-script.py", line 42, in raw_syscalls__sys_enter
(id, args),
TypeError: %u format: a number is required, not list
Fatal Python error: problem in Python trace event handler
Aborted (core dumped)
This is because the generated script tries to print the array arg as
unsigned integer (%u). Since the python seems to convert arguments to
strings by default, just using %s solved the problem for me.

Coming in v3.16, trace events will be able to save bitmasks in raw
format in the ring buffer and output it with the __get_bitmask() macro.
In order for userspace tools to parse this, it must be able to handle
the __get_bitmask() call and be able to convert the data that's in
the ring buffer into a nice bitmask format. The output is similar to
what the kernel uses to print bitmasks, with a comma separator every
4 bytes (8 characters).
This allows for cpumasks to also be saved efficiently.
The first user is the thermal:thermal_power_limit event which has the
following output:
thermal_power_limit: cpus=0000000f freq=1900000 cdev_state=0 power=5252

Fix perf probe to find correct variable DIE which has location or
external instance by tracking down the lexical blocks.
Current die_find_variable() expects that the all variable DIEs
which has DW_TAG_variable have a location. However, since recent
dwarf information may have declaration variable DIEs at the
entry of function (subprogram), die_find_variable() returns it.
To solve this problem, it must track down the DIE tree to find
a DIE which has an actual location or a reference for external
instance.
e.g. finding a DIE which origin is <0xdc73>;
<1><11496>: Abbrev Number: 95 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
<11497> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0xdc42>
<1149b> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x1850
[...]
<2><114cc>: Abbrev Number: 119 (DW_TAG_variable) <- this is a declaration
<114cd> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0xdc73>
<2><114d1>: Abbrev Number: 119 (DW_TAG_variable)
[...]
<3><115a7>: Abbrev Number: 105 (DW_TAG_lexical_block)
<115a8> DW_AT_ranges : 0xaa0
<4><115ac>: Abbrev Number: 96 (DW_TAG_variable) <- this has a location
<115ad> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0xdc73>
<115b1> DW_AT_location : 0x486c (location list)

Fix a segfault bug by asking for variable it doesn't find.
Since the convert_variable() didn't handle error code returned
from convert_variable_location(), it just passed an incomplete
variable field and then a segfault was occurred when formatting
the field.
This fixes that bug by handling success code correctly in
convert_variable(). Other callers of convert_variable_location()
are correctly checking the return code.
This bug was introduced by following commit. But another hidden
erroneous error handling has been there previously (-ENOMEM case).

Currently 'make help' message has such hint:
use "make prefix=<path> <install target>" to install to a particular
path like make prefix=/usr/local install install-doc
But this is misleading, when I specify "prefix=/usr/local", it has got no
respect at all.
This is because that, "DESTDIR" is considered first. In this case, "DESTDIR"
has an empty value, so "prefix" is honored. However, "prefix" is unconditionally
assigned to $HOME, regardless of what it is set to from command line. So our
"prefix" setting got no respect and the actual destination falls back to $HOME.
This patch fixes this issue and corrects the help message.

If the perf record command is interrupted in record__mmap_read_all
function, the 'done' is set and err has the latest poll return
value, which is most likely positive number (= number of pollfds
ready to read).
This 'positive err' is then propagated to the exit code, resulting
in not finishing the perf.data header properly, causing following
error in report:
# perf record -F 50000 -a

After output/sort fields refactoring, it's expensive
to check the elide bool in its current location inside
the 'struct sort_entry'.
The perf_hpp__should_skip function gets highly noticable in
workloads with high number of output/sort fields, like for:
$ perf report -i perf-test.data -F overhead,sample,period,comm,pid,dso,symbol,cpu --stdio
Performance report:
9.70% perf [.] perf_hpp__should_skip
Moving the elide bool into the 'struct perf_hpp_fmt', which
makes the perf_hpp__should_skip just single struct read.
Got speedup of around 22% for my test perf.data workload.
The change should not harm any other workload types.

There's no need to setup elide of sort_dso sort entry again
with symbol_conf.dso_list list.
The only difference were list names of memory mode data,
which does not make much sense to me.

When the audit-libs devel package is not found at build time we disable
the 'trace' command, as we are not able to map syscall numbers to
strings, but then the message the user is presented is cryptic:
[root@zoo linux]# trace ls
perf: 'ls' is not a perf-command. See 'perf --help'.
Fix it by presenting a more helpful message:
[root@zoo linux]# trace l
trace command not available: missing audit-libs devel package at build time.

With current output field change, GTK browser cannot display callchain
information correctly since it couldn't determine where the symbol
column is. This is a problem - just for now I changed to use the last
column since it'll work for most cases.
Also it has a same problem of the percentage as stdio code.

On stdio, there's a problem that it shows invalid values for
callchains in cumulated hist entries. It's because it only cares
about the self period. But with --children behavior, we always add
callchain info to the cumulated entries so it should use the value in
that case.

Print accumulated stat of a hist entry if requested.
To do that, add new HPP_PERCENT_ACC_FNS macro and generate a
perf_hpp_fmt using it. The __hpp__sort_acc() function sorts entries
by accumulated period value. When accumulated periods of two entries
are same (i.e. single path callchain) put the caller above since
accumulation tends to put callers on higher position for obvious
reason.
Also add "overhead_children" output field to be selected by user.
