2014-10-15perf top: Add a visual cue for toggle zeroing of samplesTaeung Song1-10/+22
When 'perf top' is run, one can't easily find a difference between -z option and normal output. So I added a visual cue to know whether it is the zeroing or not. Output is as below. Before: $ perf top Samples: 61K of event 'cycles', Event count (approx.): 3908136933 Overhead Shared Object Symbol 1.42% firefox [.] 0x0000000000011e76 1.32% libpthread-2.17.so [.] pthread_mutex_lock If you press key 'z' or run with zero option like '$ perf top --zero', it is as below. After: Samples: 61K of event 'cycles', Event count (approx.): 3908136933 [z] Overhead Shared Object Symbol 1.42% firefox [.] 0x0000000000011e76 1.32% libpthread-2.17.so [.] pthread_mutex_lock Signed-off-by: Taeung Song <treeze.taeung@gmail.com> Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1412665995-26359-1-git-send-email-treeze.taeung@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: Infrastructure fixes and changes: * Fix off-by-one bugs in map->end handling (Stephane Eranian) * Fix off-by-one bug in maps__find(), also related to map->end handling (Namhyung Kim) * Make struct symbol->end be the first addr after the symbol range, to make it match the convention used for struct map->end. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) * Fix perf_evlist__add_pollfd() error handling in 'perf kvm stat live' (Jiri Olsa) * Fix python test build by moving callchain_param to an object linked into the python binding (Jiri Olsa) * Do not include a struct hists per perf_evsel, untangling the histogram code from perf_evsel, to pave the way for exporting a minimalistic tools/lib/api/perf/ library usable by tools/perf and initially by the rasd daemon being developed by Borislav Petkov, Robert Richter and Jean Pihet. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) * Make perf_evlist__open(evlist, NULL, NULL), i.e. without cpu and thread maps mean syswide monitoring, reducing the boilerplate for tools that only want system wide mode.

2014-10-14perf symbols: Make sym->end be the first address after the symbol rangeArnaldo Carvalho de Melo3-8/+8
To follow vm_area_struct->vm_end convention. By adhering to the convention that ->end is the first address outside the symbol's range we can do things like: sym->end = start + len; len = sym->end - sym->start; This is also now the convention used for struct map->end, fixing some off-by-one bugs.

When synthesizing maps from files that have incomplete symbol information, like kallsyms, we need to fixup the end of maps by seting its end from the ->start of the next map, fix it to set prev_map->end to curr_map->start, since ->end is the first byte outside prev_map address range.

2014-10-14perf tools: fix off-by-one error in mapsStephane Eranian1-3/+3
This patch fixes off-by-one errors in the management of maps. A map is defined by start address and length as implemented by map__new(): map__init(map, type, start, start + len, pgoff, dso); map->start = addr; map->end = end; Consequently, the actual address range is [start; end[ map->end is the first byte outside the range. This patch fixes two bugs where upper bound checking was off-by-one. In V2, we fix map_groups__fixup_overlappings() some more where map->start was off-by-one as reported by Jiri.

2014-10-14perf machine: Add missing dsos->root rbtree root initializationArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-2/+8
A segfault happens on 'perf test hists_link' because we end up using a struct machines on the stack, and then machines__init() was not initializing the newly introduced rb_root, just the existing list_head. When we introduced struct dsos, to group the two ways to store dsos, i.e. the linked list and the rbtree, we didn't turned the initialization done in: machines__init(machines->host) -> machine__init() -> INIT_LIST_HEAD into a dsos__init() to keep on initializing the list_head but _as well_ initializing the rb_root, oops. All worked because outside perf-test we probably zalloc the whole thing which ends up initializing it in to NULL. So the problem looks contained to 'perf test' that uses it on stack, etc. Reported-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Acked-by: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hp.com>, Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>, Cc: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Cc: Douglas Hatch <doug.hatch@hp.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Scott J Norton <scott.norton@hp.com> Cc: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hp.com>, Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20141014180353.GF3198@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2014-10-13xfs: fix agno increment in xfs_inumbers() loopEric Sandeen1-1/+2
caused a regression in xfs_inumbers, which in turn broke xfsdump, causing incomplete dumps. The loop in xfs_inumbers() needs to fill the user-supplied buffers, and iterates via xfs_btree_increment, reading new ags as needed. But the first time through the loop, if xfs_btree_increment() succeeds, we continue, which triggers the ++agno at the bottom of the loop, and we skip to soon to the next ag - without the proper setup under next_ag to read the next ag. Fix this by removing the agno increment from the loop conditional, and only increment agno if we have actually hit the code under the next_ag: target.

2014-10-12vfs: Deduplicate code shared by xattr system calls operating on pathsEric Biggers1-77/+39
The following pairs of system calls dealing with extended attributes only differ in their behavior on whether the symbolic link is followed (when the named file is a symbolic link): - setxattr() and lsetxattr() - getxattr() and lgetxattr() - listxattr() and llistxattr() - removexattr() and lremovexattr() Despite this, the implementations all had duplicated code, so this commit redirects each of the above pairs of system calls to a corresponding function to which different lookup flags (LOOKUP_FOLLOW or 0) are passed. For me this reduced the stripped size of xattr.o from 8824 to 8248 bytes. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers3@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux Pull parisc fix from Helge Deller: "This patch intentionally breaks the ABI on PARISC Linux! It assigns new numbers to SIGSTKFLT, SIGXCPU, SIGXFSZ and SIGSYS so that those are below 32 and thus leaves us with 32 RT signals like other Linux architectures (SIGRTMIN now becomes 32 instead of 37). Even if it breaks the ABI, it doesn't seem to have any visible impact on existing userspace applications. I was able to mix new kernel and/or glibc without impacting normal bootup. So, even if it breaks the ABI, the benefits (e.g. being able to use systemd on PARISC Linux) outperforms the minimal (if any) impact it gives. The patch has been discussed on the parisc kernel mailing list and the coresponding glibc patch will be committed by the parisc glibc maintainer after this patch went into 3.18. Some more background information about this patch is in the commit message" [ Side note: the "no regressions" rule has always been about *users*, not ABI's. You can change ABI's all you like, until somebody actually notices. At that point it gets reverted regardless of how good your reasons and excuses. And admittedly, with parisc, the distinct lack of many users makes that fairly unlikely anyway :^p - Linus ] * 'parisc-3.18-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux: parisc: Reduce SIGRTMIN from 37 to 32 to behave like other Linux architectures
