David Ahern fd2eabaf16 perf trace: Add summary only option
Per request from Pekka make --summary a summary only option meaning do
not show the individual system calls. Add another option to see all
syscalls along with the summary. In addition use 's' and 'S' as
shortcuts for the options.

Pekka Enberg 99ff715054 perf trace: Simplify '--summary' output
The output of 'perf trace --summary' tries to be too cute with
formatting and makes it very hard to read.  Simplify it in the spirit of
"strace -c":

[penberg@localhost libtrading]$ perf trace -a --duration 10000 --summary -- sleep 1
^C

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 67c1e4a53b perf tests: Use lower sample_freq in sw clock event period test
We were using it at 10 kHz, which doesn't work in machines where somehow
the max freq was auto reduced by the kernel:

[root@ssdandy ~]# perf test 19
19: Test software clock events have valid period values    : FAILED!
[root@ssdandy ~]# perf test -v 19
19: Test software clock events have valid period values    :
--- start ---
Couldn't open evlist: Invalid argument
---- end ----
Test software clock events have valid period values: FAILED!
[root@ssdandy ~]#

[root@ssdandy ~]# cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
7000

Reducing it to 500 Hz should be good enough for this test and also
shouldn't affect what it is testing.

But warn the user if it fails, informing the knob and the freq tried.

When perf_event_attr.mmap_data is set the kernel will generate
PERF_RECORD_MMAP events when non-exec (data, SysV mem) mmaps are

Right now just 'perf record' does it, but any other tool that uses
perf_event__synthesize_thread(s|map) can request it.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo ef503831d8 perf evsel: Remove idx parm from constructor
Most uses of the evsel constructor are followed by a call to
perf_evlist__add with an idex of evlist->nr_entries, so make rename
the current constructor to perf_evsel__new_idx and remove the need
for passing the constructor for the common case.

We still need the new_idx variant because the way groups are handled,
with evsel->nr_members holding the number of entries in an evlist,
partitioning the evlist into sublists inside a single linked list.

This asks for a clarifying refactoring, but for now simplify the non
parser cases, so that tool writers don't have to bother with evsel idx
setting.

Patrick Palka d53e57d039 perf ui tui progress: Don't force a refresh during progress update
Each call to tui_progress__update() would forcibly refresh the entire
screen.  This is somewhat inefficient and causes noticable flickering
during the startup of perf-report, especially on large/slow terminals.

It looks like the force-refresh in tui_progress__update() serves no
purpose other than to clear the screen so that the progress bar of a
previous operation does not subsume that of a subsequent operation.  But
we can do just that in a much more efficient manner by clearing only the
region that a previous progress bar may have occupied before repainting
the new progress bar.  Then the force-refresh could be removed with no
change in visuals.

This patch disables the slow force-refresh in tui_progress__update() and
instead calls SLsmg_fill_region() on the entire area that the progress
bar may occupy before repainting it.  This change makes the startup of
perf-report much faster and appear much "smoother".

It turns out that this was a big bottleneck in the startup speed of
perf-report -- with this patch, perf-report starts up ~2x faster (1.1s
vs 0.55s) on my machines.  (These numbers were measured by running "time
perf report" on an 8MB perf.data and pressing 'q' immediately.)

Oleg Nesterov 2ded0980a6 uprobes: Fix the memory out of bound overwrite in copy_insn()
1. copy_insn() doesn't look very nice, all calculations are
   confusing and it is not immediately clear why do we read
   the 2nd page first.

2. The usage of inode->i_size is wrong on 32-bit machines.

3. "Instruction at end of binary" logic is simply wrong, it
   doesn't handle the case when uprobe->offset > inode->i_size.

   In this case "bytes" overflows, and __copy_insn() writes to
   the memory outside of uprobe->arch.insn.

   Yes, uprobe_register() checks i_size_read(), but this file
   can be truncated after that. All i_size checks are racy, we
   do this only to catch the obvious mistakes.

Change copy_insn() to call __copy_insn() in a loop, simplify
and fix the bytes/nbytes calculations.

Note: we do not care if we read extra bytes after inode->i_size
if we got the valid page. This is fine because the task gets the
same page after page-fault, and arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() can't
know how many bytes were actually read anyway.

Rodrigo Campos 8ce000e838 perf tools: Remove unneeded include
There is no point in sort.h including itself.

The include was added when the file was created, in commit "perf tools:
Create util/sort.and use it" (dd68ada2d) and added a include to "sort.h"
in lot of files (all the files that started using the file). It was
probably added by mistake on sort.h too.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 77170988ff perf trace: Don't relookup fields by name in each sample
Instead do the lookups just when creating the tracepoints, initially for
the most common, raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit}.

It works by having evsel->priv have a per tracepoint structure with
entries for the fields, for direct access, with the offset and a
function to get the value from the sample, doing the swap if needed.

Using a simple workload that does M millions write syscalls, we go from:

 # perf stat -i -e cycles /tmp/oldperf trace ./sc_hello 100 > /dev/null

 Performance counter stats for '/tmp/oldperf trace ./sc_hello 100':

     8,366,771,459 cycles

David Ahern a614d01bdd perf tools: Fix version when building out of tree
When building perf out of tree:

  $ make perf-tar-src-pkg
  $ tar -xf perf-<ver>.tar -C /tmp
  $ cd /tmp/perf<ver>
  $ make -C tools/perf

you get this warning message:
    make[1]: *** No rule to make target `kernelversion'.  Stop.

Fix it by saving the perf version in the tar file and using that for the
out of tree builds.

v2: removed short form request and fixed up version string from usual output.

Oleg Nesterov 8a8de66c4f uprobes: Introduce arch_uprobe->ixol
Currently xol_get_insn_slot() assumes that we should simply copy
arch_uprobe->insn[] which is (ignoring arch_uprobe_analyze_insn)
just the copy of the original insn.

This is not true for arm which needs to create another insn to
execute it out-of-line.

So this patch simply adds the new member, ->ixol into the union.
This doesn't make any difference for x86 and powerpc, but arm
can divorce insn/ixol and initialize the correct xol insn in
arch_uprobe_analyze_insn().

The arch_perf_output_copy_user() default of
__copy_from_user_inatomic() returns bytes not copied, while all other
argument functions given DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() return bytes copied.

Since copy_from_user_nmi() is the odd duck out by returning bytes
copied where all other *copy_{to,from}* functions return bytes not
copied, change it over and ammend DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() to expect bytes
not copied.

Oddly enough DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() already returned bytes not copied
while expecting its worker functions to return bytes copied.

Add unlikely() annotations to 'slow' paths:

When having a sampling event but no output buffer; you have bigger
issues -- also the bail is still faster than actually doing the work.

When having a sampling event but a control page only buffer, you have
bigger issues -- again the bail is still faster than actually doing
work.

Optimize for the case where you're not loosing events -- again, not
doing the work is still faster but make sure that when you have to
actually do work its as fast as possible.

The typical watermark is 1/2 the buffer size, so most events will not
take this path.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 316c7136f8 perf tools: Finish the removal of 'self' arguments
They convey no information, perhaps I was bitten by some snake at some
point, complete the detox by naming the last of those arguments more
sensibly.

Jiri Olsa 714647bdc5 perf tools: Check maximum frequency rate for record/top
Adding the check for maximum allowed frequency rate defined in following
file:

  /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate

When we cross the maximum value we fail and display detailed error
message with advise.

  $ perf record -F 3000 ls
  Maximum frequency rate (2000) reached.
  Please use -F freq option with lower value or consider
  tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.

In case user does not specify the frequency and the default value cross
the maximum, we display warning and set the frequency value to the
current maximum.

  $ perf record ls
  Lowering default frequency rate to 2000.
  Please consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.

Same messages are used for 'perf top'.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo cf38fadade perf fs: Rename NAME_find_mountpoint() to NAME__mountpoint()
Shorten it, "finding" it is an implementation detail, what callers want
is the pathname, not to ask for it to _always_ do the lookup.

And the existing implementation already caches it, i.e. it doesn't
"finds" it on every call.
