perf buildid-list: New plumbing command 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.

perf-buildid-list(1)
====================
NAME
----
perf-buildid-list - List the buildids in a perf.data file
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'perf buildid-list <options>'
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This command displays the buildids found in a perf.data file, so that other
tools can be used to fetch packages with matching symbol tables for use by
perf report.
perf buildid-list: Support showing the build id in an ELF file Try first reading the build id, validating that it is an ELF file, etc. Cheap as libelf will bail out as soon as the magic number check fails. Useful when investigating debuginfo packaging problems like this one: [root@emilia ~]# perf buildid-list -i /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/`uname -r`/vmlinux 77bb4ea591a602d455ace759a377c9adfff1aba3 [root@emilia ~]# perf buildid-list -k 07b0c016a2b30004e86132d0239945b1e88f5d75 [root@emilia ~]# Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.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> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-4elot9oxwa0rr0d90dshca3a@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2011-08-29 19:33:17 +08:00
It can also be used to show the build id of the running kernel or in an ELF
file using -i/--input.
perf buildid-list: Add option to show the running kernel build id [root@emilia ~]# perf buildid-list -k 07b0c016a2b30004e86132d0239945b1e88f5d75 Useful when diagnosing build id problems in debuginfo packages, etc. Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.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> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-po1bl7acn6e1hhne90opmvtl@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

perf report: Accept fifos as input file The default input file for perf report is not handled the same way as perf record does it for its output file. This leads to unexpected behavior of perf report, etc. E.g.: # perf record -a -e cpu-cycles sleep 2 | perf report | cat failed to open perf.data: No such file or directory (try 'perf record' first) While perf record writes to a fifo, perf report expects perf.data to be read. This patch changes this to accept fifos as input file. Applies to the following commands: perf annotate perf buildid-list perf evlist perf kmem perf lock perf report perf sched perf script perf timechart Also fixes char const* -> const char* type declaration for filename strings. v2: * Prevent potential null pointer access to input_name in builtin-report.c.
