2009-12-15perf diff: Introduce tool to show performance differenceArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+1

2009-11-16perf buildid-list: New plumbing commandArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+1
With this we can list the buildids in a perf.data file so that we can pipe them to other, distro specific tools that from the buildids can figure out separate packages (foo-debuginfo) where we can find the matching symtabs so that perf report can do its job. E.g: [acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ perf buildid-list | head -5 8e08b117e5458ad3f85da16d42d0fc5cd21c5869 520c2387a587cc5acfcf881e27dba1caaeab4b1f ec8dd400904ddfcac8b1c343263a790f977159dc 7caedbca5a6d8ab39a7fe44bd28c07d3e14a3f3f 379bb828fd08859dbea73279f04abefabc95a6a3 [acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ perf buildid-list -v | head -5 8e08b117e5458ad3f85da16d42d0fc5cd21c5869 /sbin/init 520c2387a587cc5acfcf881e27dba1caaeab4b1f /lib64/ld-2.10.1.so ec8dd400904ddfcac8b1c343263a790f977159dc /lib64/libc-2.10.1.so 7caedbca5a6d8ab39a7fe44bd28c07d3e14a3f3f /sbin/udevd 379bb828fd08859dbea73279f04abefabc95a6a3 /lib64/libdl-2.10.1.so [acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> LKML-Reference: <1258396365-29217-5-git-send-email-acme@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-10-12perf: Add perf probe subcommand, a kprobe-event setup helperMasami Hiramatsu1-0/+1
Add perf probe subcommand that implements a kprobe-event setup helper to the perf command. This allows user to define kprobe events using C expressions (C line numbers, C function names, and C local variables). Usage ----- perf probe [<options>] -P 'PROBEDEF' [-P 'PROBEDEF' ...] -k, --vmlinux <file> vmlinux/module pathname -P, --probe <p|r:[GRP/]NAME FUNC[+OFFS][@SRC]|@SRC:LINE [ARG ...]> probe point definition, where p: kprobe probe r: kretprobe probe GRP: Group name (optional) NAME: Event name FUNC: Function name OFFS: Offset from function entry (in byte) SRC: Source code path LINE: Line number ARG: Probe argument (local variable name or kprobe-tracer argument format is supported.) Changes in v4: - Add _GNU_SOURCE macro for strndup(). Changes in v3: - Remove -r option because perf always be used for online kernel. - Check malloc/calloc results. Changes in v2: - Check synthesized string length. - Rename perf kprobe to perf probe. - Use spaces for separator and update usage comment. - Check error paths in parse_probepoint(). - Check optimized-out variables.

2009-09-19perf: Add the timechart toolArjan van de Ven1-0/+1
timechart is a tool to visualize what is going on in the system. The user makes a trace of what is going on with > perf record --timechart /usr/bin/some_command and then can turn the output of this into an svg file > perf timechart which then can be viewed with any SVG view; inkscape works well enough for me. The idea behind timechart is to create a "infinitely zoomable" picture; something that has high level information on a 1:1 zoom level, but which exposes more details every time you zoom into a specific area.

2009-09-13perf: Add 'perf sched' toolIngo Molnar1-2/+3
This turn-key tool allows scheduler measurements to be conducted and the results be displayed numerically. First baby step towards that goal: clone the new command off of perf trace. Fix a few other details along the way: - add (minimal) perf trace documentation - reorder a few places - list perf trace in the mainporcelain list as well as it's a very useful utility.
