* perf record: Do not save pathname in ./debug/.build-id directory for vmlinuxNamhyung Kim2014-11-051-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When perf record finishes a session, it pre-processes samples in order to write build-id info from DSOs that had samples. During this process it'll call map__load() for the kernel map, and it ends up calling dso__load_vmlinux_path() which replaces dso->long_name. But this function checks kernel's build-id before searching vmlinux path so it'll end up with a cryptic name, the pathname for the entry in the ~/.debug cache, which can be confusing to users. This patch adds a flag to skip the build-id check during record, so that it'll have the original vmlinux path for the kernel dso->long_name, not the entry in the ~/.debug cache.

* perf tools: Check recorded kernel version when finding vmlinuxNamhyung Kim2014-08-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently vmlinux_path__init() only tries to find vmlinux file from current directory, /boot and some canonical directories with version number of the running kernel. This can be a problem when reporting old data recorded on a kernel version not running currently. We can use --symfs option for this but it's annoying for user to do it always. As we already have the info in the perf.data file, it can be changed to use it for the search automatically.

* perf record: Propagate exit status of a command line workloadNamhyung Kim2014-05-121-67/+60
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently perf record doesn't propagate the exit status of a workload given by the command line. But sometimes it'd useful if it's propagated so that a monitoring script can handle errors appropriately. To do that, it moves most of logic out of the exit handlers and run them directly in the __cmd_record(). The only thing needs to be done in the handler is propagating terminating signal so that the shell can terminate its loop properly when Ctrl-C was pressed. Also it cleaned up the resource management code in record__exit(). With this change, perf record returns the child exit status in case of normal termination and send signal to itself when terminated by signal. Example run of Stephane's case: $ perf record true && echo yes || echo no [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.013 MB perf.data (~589 samples) ] yes $ perf record false && echo yes || echo no [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.013 MB perf.data (~589 samples) ] no Jiri's case (error in parent): $ perf record -m 10G true && echo yes || echo no rounding mmap pages size to 17179869184 bytes (4194304 pages) failed to mmap with 12 (Cannot allocate memory) no $ ulimit -n 6 $ perf record sleep 1 && echo yes || echo no failed to create 'go' pipe: Too many open files Couldn't run the workload! no And Peter's case (interrupted by signal): $ while :; do perf record sleep 1; done ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.014 MB perf.data (~593 samples) ] Reported-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Acked-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1399855645-25815-1-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>

* perf machine: Introduce synthesize_threads method out of open coded equivalentArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2013-11-111-10/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Further simplifications to be done on following patch, as most tools don't use the callback, using instead just the canned machine__process_event one.

* perf record: Synthesize non-exec MMAP records when --data usedArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2013-11-111-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When perf_event_attr.mmap_data is set the kernel will generate PERF_RECORD_MMAP events when non-exec (data, SysV mem) mmaps are created, so we need to synthesize from /proc/pid/maps for existing threads, as we do for exec mmaps. Right now just 'perf record' does it, but any other tool that uses perf_event__synthesize_thread(s|map) can request it.
