Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar: "As a first remark I'd like to note that the way to build perf tooling has been simplified and sped up, in the future it should be enough for you to build perf via: cd tools/perf/ make install (ie without the -j option.) The build system will figure out the number of CPUs and will do a parallel build+install. The various build system inefficiencies and breakages Linus reported against the v3.12 pull request should now be resolved - please (re-)report any remaining annoyances or bugs. Main changes on the perf kernel side: * Performance optimizations: . perf ring-buffer code optimizations, by Peter Zijlstra . perf ring-buffer code optimizations, by Oleg Nesterov . x86 NMI call-stack processing optimizations, by Peter Zijlstra . perf context-switch optimizations, by Peter Zijlstra . perf sampling speedups, by Peter Zijlstra . x86 Intel PEBS processing speedups, by Peter Zijlstra * Enhanced hardware support: . for Intel Ivy Bridge-EP uncore PMUs, by Zheng Yan . for Haswell transactions, by Andi Kleen, Peter Zijlstra * Core perf events code enhancements and fixes by Oleg Nesterov: . for uprobes, if fork() is called with pending ret-probes . for uprobes platform support code * New ABI details by Andi Kleen: . Report x86 Haswell TSX transaction abort cost as weight Main changes on the perf tooling side (some of these tooling changes utilize the above kernel side changes): * 'perf report/top' enhancements: . Convert callchain children list to rbtree, greatly reducing the time taken for callchain processing, from Namhyung Kim. . Add new COMM infrastructure, further improving histogram processing, from Frédéric Weisbecker, one fix from Namhyung Kim. . Add /proc/kcore based live-annotation improvements, including build-id cache support, multi map 'call' instruction navigation fixes, kcore address validation, objdump workarounds. From Adrian Hunter. . Show progress on histogram collapsing, that can take a long time, from Namhyung Kim. . Add --max-stack option to limit callchain stack scan in 'top' and 'report', improving callchain processing when reducing the stack depth is an option, from Waiman Long. . Add new option --ignore-vmlinux for perf top, from Willy Tarreau. * 'perf trace' enhancements: . 'perf trace' now can can use a 'perf probe' dynamic tracepoints to hook into the userspace -> kernel pathname copy so that it can map fds to pathnames without reading /proc/pid/fd/ symlinks. From Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo. . Show VFS path associated with fd in live sessions, using a 'vfs_getname' 'perf probe' created dynamic tracepoint or by looking at /proc/pid/fd, from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo. . Add 'trace' beautifiers for lots of syscall arguments, from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo. . Implement more compact 'trace' output by suppressing zeroed args, from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo. . Show thread COMM by default in 'trace', from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo. . Add option to show full timestamp in 'trace', from David Ahern. . Add 'record' command in 'trace', to record raw_syscalls:*, from David Ahern. . Add summary option to dump syscall statistics in 'trace', from David Ahern. . Improve error messages in 'trace', providing hints about system configuration steps needed for using it, from Ramkumar Ramachandra. . 'perf trace' now emits hints as to why tracing is not possible, helping the user to setup the system to allow tracing in the desired permission granularity, telling if the problem is due to debugfs not being mounted or with not enough permission for !root, /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoit value, etc. From Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo. * 'perf record' enhancements: . Check maximum frequency rate for record/top, emitting better error messages, from Jiri Olsa. . 'perf record' code cleanups, from David Ahern. . Improve write_output error message in 'perf record', from Adrian Hunter. . Allow specifying B/K/M/G unit to the --mmap-pages arguments, from Jiri Olsa. . Fix command line callchain attribute tests to handle the new -g/--call-chain semantics, from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo. * 'perf kvm' enhancements: . Disable live kvm command if timerfd is not supported, from David Ahern. . Fix detection of non-core features, from David Ahern. * 'perf list' enhancements: . Add usage to 'perf list', from David Ahern. . Show error in 'perf list' if tracepoints not available, from Pekka Enberg. * 'perf probe' enhancements: . Support "$vars" meta argument syntax for local variables, allowing asking for all possible variables at a given probe point to be collected when it hits, from Masami Hiramatsu. * 'perf sched' enhancements: . Address the root cause of that 'perf sched' stack initialization build slowdown, by programmatically setting a big array after moving the global variable back to the stack. Fix from Adrian Hunter. * 'perf script' enhancements: . Set up output options for in-stream attributes, from Adrian Hunter. . Print addr by default for BTS in 'perf script', from Adrian Juntmer * 'perf stat' enhancements: . Improved messages when doing profiling in all or a subset of CPUs using a workload as the session delimitator, as in: 'perf stat --cpu 0,2 sleep 10s' from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo. . Add units to nanosec-based counters in 'perf stat', from David Ahern. . Remove bogus info when using 'perf stat' -e cycles/instructions, from Ramkumar Ramachandra. * 'perf lock' enhancements: . 'perf lock' fixes and cleanups, from Davidlohr Bueso. * 'perf test' enhancements: . Fixup PERF_SAMPLE_TRANSACTION handling in sample synthesizing and 'perf test', from Adrian Hunter. . Clarify the "sample parsing" test entry, from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo. . Consider PERF_SAMPLE_TRANSACTION in the "sample parsing" test, from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo. . Memory leak fixes in 'perf test', from Felipe Pena. * 'perf bench' enhancements: . Change the procps visible command-name of invididual benchmark tests plus cleanups, from Ingo Molnar. * Generic perf tooling infrastructure/plumbing changes: . Separating data file properties from session, code reorganization from Jiri Olsa. . Fix version when building out of tree, as when using one of these: $ make help | grep perf perf-tar-src-pkg - Build perf-3.12.0.tar source tarball perf-targz-src-pkg - Build perf-3.12.0.tar.gz source tarball perf-tarbz2-src-pkg - Build perf-3.12.0.tar.bz2 source tarball perf-tarxz-src-pkg - Build perf-3.12.0.tar.xz source tarball $ from David Ahern. . Enhance option parse error message, showing just the help lines of the options affected, from Namhyung Kim. . libtraceevent updates from upstream trace-cmd repo, from Steven Rostedt. . Always use perf_evsel__set_sample_bit to set sample_type, from Adrian Hunter. . Memory and mmap leak fixes from Chenggang Qin. . Assorted build fixes for from David Ahern and Jiri Olsa. . Speed up and prettify the build system, from Ingo Molnar. . Implement addr2line directly using libbfd, from Roberto Vitillo. . Separate the GTK support in a separate libperf-gtk.so DSO, that is only loaded when --gtk is specified, from Namhyung Kim. . perf bash completion fixes and improvements from Ramkumar Ramachandra. . Support for Openembedded/Yocto -dbg packages, from Ricardo Ribalda Delgado. And lots and lots of other fixes and code reorganizations that did not make it into the list, see the shortlog, diffstat and the Git log for details!" * 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (300 commits) uprobes: Fix the memory out of bound overwrite in copy_insn() uprobes: Fix the wrong usage of current->utask in uprobe_copy_process() perf tools: Remove unneeded include perf record: Remove post_processing_offset variable perf record: Remove advance_output function perf record: Refactor feature handling into a separate function perf trace: Don't relookup fields by name in each sample perf tools: Fix version when building out of tree perf evsel: Ditch evsel->handler.data field uprobes: Export write_opcode() as uprobe_write_opcode() uprobes: Introduce arch_uprobe->ixol uprobes: Kill module_init() and module_exit() uprobes: Move function declarations out of arch perf/x86/intel: Add Ivy Bridge-EP uncore IRP box support perf/x86/intel/uncore: Add filter support for IvyBridge-EP QPI boxes perf: Factor out strncpy() in perf_event_mmap_event() tools/perf: Add required memory barriers perf: Fix arch_perf_out_copy_user default perf: Update a stale comment perf: Optimize perf_output_begin() -- address calculation ...
