2015-05-14perf report: Fix some option handling on --stdioNamhyung Kim1-1/+0
There's a bug that perf report sometimes ignore some options on --stdio output. This bug is triggered only if a related config variable is set. For example, let's assume we have a following config file. $ cat ~/.perfconfig [call-graph] print-type = graph [hist] percentage = absolute Then, following perf config will not honor some options. $ perf record -ag sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.199 MB perf.data (77 samples) ] $ perf report -g none --stdio # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # # Samples: 77 of event 'cycles' # Event count (approx.): 25425383 # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ............... ....................... .............. # 16.34% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] [k] intel_idle | ---intel_idle cpuidle_enter_state cpuidle_enter cpu_startup_entry ... With '-g none' option, it should not show callchains, but it still shows callchains. However it works as expected on --tui output. Similarly, '--percentage relative' option is not work and still shows a absolute percentage values. Looking at the source, I found that those setting were overwritten by config variables when setup_pager() called. The setup_pager() is to start a pager process so that it can manage long lines of output on the stdio mode. But as it calls the perf_config() after parsing arguments, the settings were overwritten regardless of command line options. The reason it calls perf_config() is to find the 'pager_program' which might be set by a config variable, I guess. However current perf code does not provide the config variable for it, so it's just meaningless IMHO. Eliminating the call makes the option working as expected.

2012-09-11perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variablesIrina Tirdea1-3/+3
perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking unused variables. The variable __used is defined to __attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to __attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning: '__used__' attribute ignored __unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition. If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name in its headers. The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android. This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with __maybe_unused.

This patch adds a simple GTK2-based browser to 'perf report' that's based on the TTY-based browser in builtin-report.c. To launch "perf report" using the new GTK interface just type: $ perf report --gtk The interface is somewhat limited in features at the moment: - No callgraph support - No KVM guest profiling support - No color coding for percentages - No sorting from the UI - ..and many, many more!

2010-06-05perf buildid: add perfconfig option to specify buildid cache dirStephane Eranian1-0/+1
This patch adds the ability to specify an alternate directory to store the buildid cache (buildids, copy of binaries). By default, it is hardcoded to $HOME/.debug. This directory contains immutable data. The layout of the directory is such that no conflicts in filenames are possible. A modification in a file, yields a different buildid and thus a different location in the subdir hierarchy. You may want to put the buildid cache elsewhere because of disk space limitation or simply to share the cache between users. It is also useful for remote collect vs. local analysis of profiles. This patch adds a new config option to the perfconfig file. Under the tag 'buildid', there is a dir option. For instance, if you have: $ cat /etc/perfconfig [buildid] dir = /var/cache/perf-buildid All buildids and binaries are be saved in the directory specified. The perf record, buildid-list, buildid-cache, report, annotate, and archive commands will it to pull information out. The option can be set in the system-wide perfconfig file or in the $HOME/.perfconfig file. Cc: David S.

2010-03-12perf report: Implement initial UI using newtArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+14
Newt has widespread availability and provides a rather simple API as can be seen by the size of this patch. The work needed to support it will benefit other frontends too. In this initial patch it just checks if the output is a tty, if not it falls back to the previous behaviour, also if newt-devel/libnewt-dev is not installed the previous behaviour is maintaned. Pressing enter on a symbol will annotate it, ESC in the annotation window will return to the report symbol list. More work will be done to remove the special casing in color_fprintf, stop using fmemopen/FILE in the printing of hist_entries, etc. Also the annotation doesn't need to be done via spawning "perf annotate" and then browsing its output, we can do better by calling directly the builtin-annotate.c functions, that would then be moved to tools/perf/util/annotate.c and shared with perf top, etc But lets go by baby steps, this patch already improves perf usability by allowing to quickly do annotations on symbols from the report screen and provides a first experimentation with libnewt/TUI integration of tools. Tested on RHEL5 and Fedora12 X86_64 and on Debian PARISC64 to browse a perf.data file collected on a Fedora12 x86_64 box.

2009-08-16perf: Enable more compiler warningsIngo Molnar1-1/+0
Related to a shadowed variable bug fix Valdis Kletnieks noticed that perf does not get built with -Wshadow, which could have helped us avoid the bug. So enable -Wshadow and also enable the following warnings on perf builds, in addition to the already enabled -Wall -Wextra -std=gnu99 warnings: -Wcast-align -Wformat=2 -Wshadow -Winit-self -Wpacked -Wredundant-decls -Wstack-protector -Wstrict-aliasing=3 -Wswitch-default -Wswitch-enum -Wno-system-headers -Wundef -Wvolatile-register-var -Wwrite-strings -Wbad-function-cast -Wmissing-declarations -Wmissing-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Wold-style-definition -Wstrict-prototypes -Wdeclaration-after-statement And change/fix the perf code to build cleanly under GCC 4.3.2. The list of warnings enablement is rather arbitrary: it's based on my (quick) reading of the GCC manpages and trying them on perf. I categorized the warnings based on individually enabling them and looking whether they trigger something in the perf build. If i liked those warnings (i.e. if they trigger for something that arguably could be improved) i enabled the warning. If the warnings seemed to come from language laywers spamming the build with tons of nuisance warnings i generally kept them off. Most of the sign conversion related warnings were in this category. (A second patch enabling some of the sign warnings might be welcome - sign bugs can be nasty.) I also kept warnings that seem to make sense from their manpage description and which produced no actual warnings on our code base. These warnings might still be turned off if they end up being a nuisance. I also left out a few warnings that are not supported in older compilers. [ Note that these changes might break the build on older compilers i did not test, or on non-x86 architectures that produce different warnings, so more testing would be welcome. ] Reported-by: Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
