2011-02-28perf timechart: Fix max number of cpusThomas Renninger1-3/+3
Currently numcpus is determined in pid_put_sample which is only called on sched_switch/sched_wakeup sample processing. On a machine with a lot cpus I often saw the last cpu missing. Check for (max) numcpus on every event happening and in the beginning. -> fixes the issue for me.

2011-02-28perf timechart: Fix black idle boxes in the titleThomas Renninger1-3/+3
This fix is needed for eye of gnome and firefox svg viewers. Only Inkscape can handle the broken case. Compare with the other svg_legenda_box declarations, looks like a typo slipped in at this place.

2011-02-10perf tools: Fix thread_map event synthesizing in top and recordArnaldo Carvalho de Melo4-10/+20
Jeff Moyer reported these messages: Warning: ... trying to fall back to cpu-clock-ticks couldn't open /proc/-1/status couldn't open /proc/-1/maps [ls output] [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.008 MB perf.data (~363 samples) ] That lead me and David Ahern to see that something was fishy on the thread synthesizing routines, at least for the case where the workload is started from 'perf record', as -1 is the default for target_tid in 'perf record --tid' parameter, so somehow we were trying to synthesize the PERF_RECORD_MMAP and PERF_RECORD_COMM events for the thread -1, a bug. So I investigated this and noticed that when we introduced support for recording a process and its threads using --pid some bugs were introduced and that the way to fix it was to instead of passing the target_tid to the event synthesizing routines we should better pass the thread_map that has the list of threads for a --pid or just the single thread for a --tid.

2011-01-13perf record: Add "nodelay" mode, disabled by defaultKirill Smelkov2-0/+11
Sometimes there is a need to use perf in "live-log" mode. The problem is, for seldom events, actual info output is largely delayed because perf-record reads sample data in whole pages. So for such scenarious, add flag for perf-record to go in "nodelay" mode. To track e.g. what's going on in icmp_rcv while ping is running Use it with something like this: (1) $ perf probe -L icmp_rcv | grep -U8 '^ *43\>' goto error; } 38 if (!pskb_pull(skb, sizeof(*icmph))) goto error; icmph = icmp_hdr(skb); 43 ICMPMSGIN_INC_STATS_BH(net, icmph->type); /* * 18 is the highest 'known' ICMP type.

2011-01-11tools: create power/x86/x86_energy_perf_policyLen Brown3-0/+437
MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS first became available on Westmere Xeon. It is implemented in all Sandy Bridge processors -- mobile, desktop and server. It is expected to become increasingly important in subsequent generations. x86_energy_perf_policy is a user-space utility to set the hardware energy vs performance policy hint in the processor. Most systems would benefit from "x86_energy_perf_policy normal" at system startup, as the hardware default is maximum performance at the expense of energy efficiency. See x86_energy_perf_policy.8 man page for more information. Background: Linux-2.6.36 added "epb" to /proc/cpuinfo to indicate if an x86 processor supports MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS, without actually modifying the MSR. In March, 2010, Venkatesh Pallipadi proposed a small driver that programmed MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS, based on the cpufreq governor in use. It also offered a boot-time cmdline option to override. http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/3/4/457 But hiding the hardware policy behind the governor choice was deemed "kinda icky". In June, 2010, I proposed a generic user/kernel API to generalize the power/performance policy trade-off. "RFC: /sys/power/policy_preference" http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/6/16/399 That is my preference for implementing this capability, but I received no support on the list. So in September, 2010, I sent x86_energy_perf_policy.c to LKML, a user-space utility that scribbles directly to the MSR. http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/9/28/246 Here is that same utility, after responding to some review feedback, to live in tools/power/, where it is easily found.

2011-01-11tools: create power/x86/turbostatLen Brown3-0/+1228
turbostat is a Linux tool to observe proper operation of Intel(R) Turbo Boost Technology. turbostat displays the actual processor frequency on x86 processors that include APERF and MPERF MSRs. Note that turbostat is of limited utility on Linux kernels 2.6.29 and older, as acpi_cpufreq cleared APERF/MPERF up through that release. On Intel Core i3/i5/i7 (Nehalem) and newer processors, turbostat also displays residency in idle power saving states, which are necessary for diagnosing any cpuidle issues that may have an effect on turbo-mode. See the turbostat.8 man page for example usage. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2011-01-11perf evsel: Fix order of event list deletionArnaldo Carvalho de Melo4-2/+3
We need to defer calling perf_evsel_list__delete() till after atexit registered routines, because we need to traverse the events being recorded at that time at least on 'perf record'. This fixes the problem reported by Thomas Renninger where cmd_record called by cmd_timechart would not write the tracing data to the perf.data file header because the evsel_list at atexit (control+C on 'perf timechart record') time would be empty, being already deleted by run_builtin(), and thus 'perf timechart' when trying to process such perf.data file would die with: "no trace data in the file" Problem introduced in 70d544d.

2011-01-06perf tools: Fix buffer overflow error when specifying all tracepointsHan Pingtian1-31/+30
I found when specifying all tracepoints with -e to one of subcommand, such as 'stat', the program will trigger a buffer overflow error, like this: *** buffer overflow detected ***: ./perf terminated ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib64/libc.so.6(__fortify_fail+0x37)[0x382cefb2c7] .... The tracepoints are separated by comma, something like this: $ perf stat -a -e `perf list |grep Tracepoint|awk -F'[' '{gsub(/[[:space:]]+/,"",$1);array[FNR]=$1}END{outputs=array[1];for (i=2;i<=FNR;i++){ outputs=outputs "," array[i];};print outputs}'` The root reason of this problem is that store_event_type() is called for all events, and will overflow the 'filename' at: strncat(filename, orgname, strlen(orgname)); This patch fixes it by calling store_event_type() only when the event name has been found.
