Andi Kleen 702fb9b415 perf report: Show all sort keys in help output
Show all the supported sort keys in the command line help output, so
that it's not needed to refer to the manpage.

Before:

  % perf report -h
  ...
       -s, --sort <key[,key2...]>
                            sort by key(s): pid, comm, dso, symbol, parent, cpu, srcline, ... Please refer the man page for the complete list.

After:

  % perf report -h
  ...
      -s, --sort <key[,key2...]>
                            sort by key(s): overhead overhead_sys overhead_us overhead_guest_sys overhead_guest_us overhead_children sample period pid comm dso symbol parent cpu ...

Andi Kleen 4968ac8fb7 perf report: Implement browsing of individual samples
Now 'perf report' can show whole time periods with 'perf script', but
the user still has to find individual samples of interest manually.

It would be expensive and complicated to search for the right samples in
the whole perf file. Typically users only need to look at a small number
of samples for useful analysis.

Also the full scripts tend to show samples of all CPUs and all threads
mixed up, which can be very confusing on larger systems.

Add a new --samples option to save a small random number of samples per
hist entry.

Use a reservoir sample technique to select a representatve number of
samples.

Then allow browsing the samples using 'perf script' as part of the hist
entry context menu. This automatically adds the right filters, so only
the thread or cpu of the sample is displayed. Then we use less' search
functionality to directly jump the to the time stamp of the selected
sample.

It uses different menus for assembler and source display.  Assembler
needs xed installed and source needs debuginfo.

Currently it only supports as many samples as fit on the screen due to
some limitations in the slang ui code.

Andi Kleen 2a1292cbd4 perf report: Parse time quantum
Many workloads change over time. 'perf report' currently aggregates the
whole time range reported in perf.data.

This patch adds an option for a time quantum to quantisize the perf.data
over time.

This just adds the option, will be used in follow on patches for a time
sort key.

Jin Yao 284c4e18f5 perf time-utils: Refactor time range parsing code
Jiri points out that we don't need any time checking and time string
parsing if the --time option is not set. That makes sense.

This patch refactors the time range parsing code, move the duplicated
code from perf report and perf script to time_utils and check if --time
option is set before parsing the time string. This patch is no logic
change expected. So the usage of --time is same as before.

For example:

Select the first and second 10% time slices:
  perf report --time 10%/1,10%/2
  perf script --time 10%/1,10%/2

Select the slices from 0% to 10% and from 30% to 40%:
  perf report --time 0%-10%,30%-40%
  perf script --time 0%-10%,30%-40%

Select the time slices from timestamp 3971 to 3973
  perf report --time 3971,3973
  perf script --time 3971,3973

Committer testing:

Using the above examples, check before and after to see if it remains
the same:

  $ perf record -F 10000 -- find . -name "*.[ch]" -exec cat {} + > /dev/null
  [ perf record: Woken up 3 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.626 MB perf.data (42392 samples) ]
  $
  $ perf report --time 10%/1,10%/2 > /tmp/report.before.1
  $ perf script --time 10%/1,10%/2 > /tmp/script.before.1
  $ perf report --time 0%-10%,30%-40% > /tmp/report.before.2
  $ perf script --time 0%-10%,30%-40% > /tmp/script.before.2
  $ perf report --time 180457.375844,180457.377717 > /tmp/report.before.3
  $ perf script --time 180457.375844,180457.377717 > /tmp/script.before.3

For example, the 3rd test produces this slice:

  $ cat /tmp/script.before.3

Jiri Olsa 2d4f27999b perf data: Add global path holder
Add a 'path' member to 'struct perf_data'. It will keep the configured
path for the data (const char *). The path in struct perf_data_file is
now dynamically allocated (duped) from it.

This scheme is useful/used in following patches where struct
perf_data::path holds the 'configure' directory path and struct
perf_data_file::path holds the allocated path for specific files.

Also it actually makes the code little simpler.

Move the annotation retrieval to the resort phase, so that all the data

Davidlohr Bueso f3acb3a8a2 perf machine: Use cached rbtrees
At the cost of an extra pointer, we can avoid the O(logN) cost of
finding the first element in the tree (smallest node), which is
something required for nearly every operation dealing with
machine->guests and threads->entries.

The conversion is straightforward, however, it's worth noticing that the
rb_erase_init() calls have been replaced by rb_erase_cached() which has
no _init() flavor, however, the node is explicitly cleared next anyway,
which was redundant until now.

Linus Torvalds c05f3642f4 Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main updates in this cycle were:

   - Lots of perf tooling changes too voluminous to list (big perf trace
     and perf stat improvements, lots of libtraceevent reorganization,
     etc.), so I'll list the authors and refer to the changelog for
     details:

       Benjamin Peterson, Jérémie Galarneau, Kim Phillips, Peter
       Zijlstra, Ravi Bangoria, Sangwon Hong, Sean V Kelley, Steven
       Rostedt, Thomas Gleixner, Ding Xiang, Eduardo Habkost, Thomas
       Richter, Andi Kleen, Sanskriti Sharma, Adrian Hunter, Tzvetomir
       Stoyanov, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Jiri Olsa.

     ... with the bulk of the changes written by Jiri Olsa, Tzvetomir
     Stoyanov and Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

   - Continued intel_rdt work with a focus on playing well with perf
     events. This also imported some non-perf RDT work due to
     dependencies. (Reinette Chatre)

   - Implement counter freezing for Arch Perfmon v4 (Skylake and newer).
     This allows to speed up the PMI handler by avoiding unnecessary MSR
     writes and make it more accurate. (Andi Kleen)

   - kprobes cleanups and simplification (Masami Hiramatsu)

   - Intel Goldmont PMU updates (Kan Liang)

   - ... plus misc other fixes and updates"

Jiri Olsa 4ab8455f8b perf evsel: Store ids for events with their own cpus perf_event__synthesize_event_update_cpus
John reported crash when recording on an event under PMU with cpumask defined:

  root@localhost:~# ./perf_debug_ record -e armv8_pmuv3_0/br_mis_pred/ sleep 1

We synthesize an update event that needs to touch the evsel id array, which is
not defined at that time. Fixing this by forcing the id allocation for events
with their own cpus.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 3183f8ca30 perf symbols: Unify symbol maps
Remove the split of symbol tables for data (MAP__VARIABLE) and for
functions (MAP__FUNCTION), its unneeded and there were various places
doing two lookups to find a symbol, so simplify this.

We still will consider only the symbols that matched the filters in
place, i.e. see the (elf_(sec,sym)|symbol_type)__filter() routines in
the patch, just so that we consider only the same symbols as before,
to reduce the possibility of regressions.

All the tests on 50-something build environments, in varios versions
of lots of distros and cross build environments were performed without
build regressions, as usual with all pull requests the other tests were
also performed: 'perf test' and 'make -C tools/perf build-test'.

Also this was done at a great granularity so that regressions can be
bisected more easily.

Wang YanQing ea85ab24c5 perf report: Provide libtraceevent with a kernel symbol resolver
So that beautifiers wanting to resolve kernel function addresses to
names can do its work, and when we use "perf report" for output of "perf
kmem record", we will get kernel symbol output.

This patch affect the output of "perf report" for the record data
generated by "perf kmem record" looks like below:

Before patch:
0.01%  call_site=ffffffff814e5828 ptr=0x99bb000 bytes_req=3616 bytes_alloc=4096 gfp_flags=GFP_ATOMIC
0.01%  call_site=ffffffff81370b87 ptr=0x428a3060 bytes_req=32 bytes_alloc=32 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|GFP_ZERO

After patch:
0.01%  (aa_alloc_task_context+0x27) call_site=ffffffff81370b87 ptr=0x428a3060 bytes_req=32 bytes_alloc=32 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|GFP_ZERO

Jiri Olsa 8ef278bb93 perf report: Fix the output for stdio events list
Changing the output header for reporting forced groups via --groups
option on non grouped events, like:

  $ perf record -e 'cycles,instructions'
  $ perf report --stdio --group

Before:

  # Samples: 24  of event 'anon group { cycles:u, instructions:u }'

After:

  # Samples: 24  of events 'cycles:u, instructions:u'

Jiri Olsa ad52b8cb48 perf report: Add support to display group output for non group events
Add support to display group output for if non grouped events are
detected and user forces --group option. Now for non-group events
recorded like:

  $ perf record -e 'cycles,instructions' ls

you can still get group output by using --group option
in report:

  $ perf report --group --stdio
  ...
  #         Overhead  Command  Shared Object     Symbol
  # ................  .......  ................  ......................
  #
      17.67%   0.00%  ls       libc-2.25.so      [.] _IO_do_write@@GLIB
      15.59%  25.94%  ls       ls                [.] calculate_columns
      15.41%  31.35%  ls       libc-2.25.so      [.] __strcoll_l
  ...

Committer note:

We should improve on this by making sure that the first line states that
this is not a group, but since the user doesn't have to force group view
when really using grouped events (e.g. '{cycles,instructions}'), the
user better know what is being done...

We don't have 'perf' calling 'perf' calling 'make', etc, the second
'perf' actually is 'make', i.e.  there was reordering of the relevant
PERF_RECORD_COMM and PERF_RECORD_FORK records.

Ditto for sh/install later on.

Look for FORK and COMM meta events, for those tids:

  # perf report -D | egrep 'PERF_RECORD_(FORK|COMM)' | egrep '3243[34]'
  0 14774650990679 0x1a3cd8 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_FORK(32433:32433):(3489:3489)

  0 14774752005779 0x1a4af8 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_COMM exec: make:32434/32434

  #

First column is the cpu, second is the timestamp.

So they are on different CPUs, thus ring buffers, and when we don't use
the ordered_events class, we end up mixing that up, use it to take
advantage of the PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND meta events to go on
ordering the events using the PERF_SAMPLE_TIME present in the
PERF_RECORD_{FORK,COMM,EXIT,SAMPLE,etc} records in the ring buffer.

For overwrite mode, the ringbuffer will be paused. The event lost is

It will be used later for perf top to disable lost event warning in
overwrite mode. There is no behavior change for now.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo eabad8c685 perf unwind: Do not look just at the global callchain_param.record_mode
When setting up DWARF callchains on specific events, without using
'record' or 'trace' --call-graph, but instead doing it like:

	perf trace -e cycles/call-graph=dwarf/

The unwind__prepare_access() call in thread__insert_map() when we
process PERF_RECORD_MMAP(2) metadata events were not being performed,
precluding us from using per-event DWARF callchains, handling them just
when we asked for all events to be DWARF, using "--call-graph dwarf".

We do it in the PERF_RECORD_MMAP because we have to look at one of the
executable maps to figure out the executable type (64-bit, 32-bit) of
the DSO laid out in that mmap. Also to look at the architecture where
the perf.data file was recorded.

All this probably should be deferred to when we process a sample for
some thread that has callchains, so that we do this processing only for
the threads with samples, not for all of them.

For now, fix using DWARF on specific events.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 6439d7d16c perf report: Introduce --mmaps
Similar to --tasks, producing the same output plus /proc/<PID>/maps
similar lines for each mmap record present in a perf.data file.

Please note that not all mmaps are stored, for instance, some of the

when the user wants to resolve data accesses in addition to asking for
executable mmaps to get the DSO with symtabs.

Jin Yao 5b969bc766 perf report: Support time percent and multiple time ranges
perf report has a --time option to limit the time range of output.  It
only supports absolute time.

Now this option is extended to support multiple time ranges and support
the percent of time.

For example:

1. Select the first and second 10% time slices:

perf report --time 10%/1,10%/2

2. Select from 0% to 10% and 30% to 40% slices:

perf report --time 0%-10%,30%-40%

Changelog:

v6: Fix the merge issue with latest perf/core branch.
    No functional changes.

v5: Add checking of first/last sample time to detect if it's recorded
    in perf.data. If it's not recorded, returns error message to user.

v4: Remove perf_time__skip_sample, only uses perf_time__ranges_skip_sample

v3: Since the definitions of first_sample_time/last_sample_time
    are moved from perf_session to perf_evlist so change the
    related code.

Jin Yao 40c39e3046 perf report: Fix a no annotate browser displayed issue
When enabling '-b' option in perf record, for example,

  perf record -b ...
  perf report

and then browsing the annotate browser from perf report (press 'A'), it
would fail (annotate browser can't be displayed).

It's because the '.add_entry_cb' op of struct report is overwritten by
hist_iter__branch_callback() in builtin-report.c. But this function doesn't do
something like mapping symbols and sources. So next, do_annotate() will return
directly.

        notes = symbol__annotation(act->ms.sym);
        if (!notes->src)
                return 0;

This patch adds the lost code to hist_iter__branch_callback (refer to
hist_iter__report_callback).

v2:

Fix a crash bug when perform 'perf report --stdio'.

The reason is that we init the symbol annotation only in browser mode, it
doesn't allocate/init resources for stdio mode.

So now in hist_iter__branch_callback(), it will return directly if it's not in
browser mode.

Seokho Song 712d36db5a perf report: Set browser mode right before setup_browser()
There are codes that print messages to the screen between assignment of
the use_browser variable and setup_browser().

But since the GUI browser is not initialized during that period, all
messages fail to show if the user passed the --gtk option to perf as GTK
is not initialized yet.

Reorder the code to assign use_browser variable right before
setup_browser() is called.

Greg Kroah-Hartman b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.
