* Revert "perf tools: Fix jump label always changing during tracing"Jiri Olsa2014-07-281-7/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit deaff8b659cf4d34181c087b8cdf74f1eb17b02b. This commit makes CLOEXEC feature undetected for normal users, because per-cpu events are priviledged.

* perf record: Store PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND only for nonempty roundsJiri Olsa2014-07-251-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we store PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND event each time we go throught mmap buffers no matter if it contains any data, which is useless. Forcing the PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND event to be stored any time we finished the round AND wrote at least one event.

* perf record: Always force PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND eventJiri Olsa2014-07-251-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND synthetic record governs queue flushing in reporting, so it needs to be stored for any kind of event. The lack of such periodic flushing made the tools use more memory than needed, as the reordering was being done only after processing all events. This was the case when no tracepoints were in the mix. Forcing the PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND event to be stored for all event types.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Let perf inject take --kallsyms parameter the same as perf script and perf report do. That is needed for decoding Instruction Trace data using a copy of /proc/kcore for the kernel object because the kallsyms path is used to locate that copy.

* perf tools: Expose 'addr' functions so they can be reusedAdrian Hunter2014-07-253-33/+53
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move some functions and functionality related to the use of 'addr' out of builtin-script so they can be reused. The moved functions are: is_bts_event() and sample_addr_correlates_sym() and a new function perf_event__preprocess_sample_addr() is created from bits of print_sample_addr(). perf_event__preprocess_sample_addr() is the equivalent of perf_event__preprocess_sample() but for 'addr' instead of 'ip'.

* perf tools: Fix jump label always changing during tracingAdrian Hunter2014-07-231-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Intel PT decoding walks the object code to reconstruct the trace. A jump label change during tracing causes decoding errors. The "Enable close-on-exec flag on perf file descriptor" patch caused there to be always a jump label change. It was found that using a per-cpu context instead of a per-thread context for the probe of the close-on-exec feature, made the problem go away.
