* perf tools: Remove redundant initialization of thread linkage membersArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2015-05-271-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A thread moves from a rb tree to a list, but can't be on both, because those linkage members are in a union. This is leftover from when I was debugging thread refcounting and had nuked that union. It is harmless duplication, as RB_CLEAR_NODE() does again what INIT_LIST_HEAD does.

* perf machine: Protect the machine->threads with a rwlockArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2015-05-081-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In addition to using refcounts for the struct thread lifetime management, we need to protect access to machine->threads from concurrent access. That happens in 'perf top', where a thread processes events, inserting and deleting entries from that rb_tree while another thread decays hist_entries, that end up dropping references and ultimately deleting threads from the rb_tree and releasing its resources when no further hist_entry (or other data structures, like in 'perf sched') references it. So the rule is the same for refcounts + protected trees in the kernel, get the tree lock, find object, bump the refcount, drop the tree lock, return, use object, drop the refcount if no more use of it is needed, keep it if storing it in some other data structure, drop when releasing that data structure. I.e. pair "t = machine__find(new)_thread()" with a "thread__put(t)", and "perf_event__preprocess_sample(&al)" with "addr_location__put(&al)". The addr_location__put() one is because as we return references to several data structures, we may end up adding more reference counting for the other data structures and then we'll drop it at addr_location__put() time.

* perf tools: Reference count struct threadArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2015-03-031-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We need to do that to stop accumulating entries in the dead_threads linked list, i.e. we were keeping references to threads in struct hists that continue to exist even after a thread exited and was removed from the machine threads rbtree. We still keep the dead_threads list, but just for debugging, allowing us to iterate at any given point over the threads that still are referenced by things like struct hist_entry.

* perf tools: Only override the default :tid comm entryAdrian Hunter2014-11-191-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Events may still be ordered even if there are no timestamps e.g. if the data is recorded per-thread. Also synthesized COMM events have a timestamp of zero. Consequently it is better to keep comm entries even if they have a timestamp of zero. However, when a struct thread is created the command string is not known and a comm entry with a string of the form ":<tid>" is used. In that case thread->comm_set is false and the comm entry should be overridden.

* perf callchain: Use global caching provided by libunwindNamhyung Kim2014-10-291-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The libunwind provides two caching policy which are global and per-thread. As perf unwinds callchains in a single thread, it'd sufficient to use global caching. This speeds up my perf report from 14s to 7s on a ~260MB data file. Although the output sometimes contains a slight difference (~0.01% in terms of number of lines printed) on callchains which were not resolved.

* perf callchain: Create an address space per threadNamhyung Kim2014-10-151-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The unw_addr_space_t in libunwind represents an address space to be used for stack unwinding. It doesn't need to be create/destory everytime to unwind callchain (as in get_entries) and can have a same lifetime as thread (unless exec called). So move the address space construction/destruction logic to the thread lifetime handling functions. This is a preparation to enable caching in the unwind library. Note that it saves unw_addr_space_t object using thread__set_priv(). It seems currently only used by perf trace and perf kvm stat commands which don't use callchain.

* perf tools: Add new COMM infrastructureFrederic Weisbecker2013-11-041-24/+68
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This new COMM infrastructure provides two features: 1) It keeps track of all comms lifecycle for a given thread. This way we can associate a timeframe to any thread COMM, as long as PERF_SAMPLE_TIME samples are joined to COMM and fork events. As a result we should have more precise COMM sorted hists with seperated entries for pre and post exec time after a fork. 2) It also makes sure that a given COMM string is not duplicated but rather shared among the threads that refer to it. This way the threads COMM can be compared against pointer values from the sort infrastructure.

With this fix (suggested by Stephane Eranian), a COMM (rename) no longer flushes the maps, which is the correct behavior. An EXEC also no longer flushes the maps, but this doesn't matter because as new mappings are created (for the executable and the libraries) the old mappings are automatically removed. This is not by accident: the functionality is necessary because DLLs can be explicitly loaded at any time with dlopen(), possibly on top of existing text, so "perf report" handles correctly the clobbering of new mappings on top of old ones. An alternative patch (which I proposed earlier) would be to introduce a separate PERF_RECORD_EXEC type, but it is a much larger change (about 300 lines) and is not necessary.

For exmaple, if a process whose id is 8888 has 10 threads, 'perf top -p 8888' just collects the main thread statistics. That's misleading. Users are used to attach a whole process when debugging a process by gdb. To follow normal usage style, the patch change --pid to process-wide collection and add --tid (-t) to mean a thread-wide collection. Usage example is: # perf top -p 8888 # perf record -p 8888 -f sleep 10 # perf stat -p 8888 -f sleep 10 Above commands collect the statistics of all threads of process 8888.

We can't distinguish the ones in the newly executed process because the PID will be the same. One way to solve this would be to have a PERF_RECORD_EXEC event, and when this is seen 'perf' can flush it's map cache. We can't use PERF_RECORD_COMM since that's generated by other things, not just exec(). Actually, thinking about it some more, using PERF_RECORD_COMM might be a good enough approximation.
