Namhyung Kim acf2892270 perf stat: Use perf_evlist__prepare/start_workload()
The perf stat had an open code to the duplicated work.  Use the helper
as it now can be called without struct perf_record_opts.

Namhyung Kim 119fa3c922 perf evlist: Do not pass struct record_opts to perf_evlist__prepare_workload()
Since it's only used for checking ->pipe_output, we can pass the result
directly.

Now the perf_evlist__prepare_workload() don't have a dependency of
struct perf_record_opts, it can be called from other places like perf
stat.

Borislav Petkov b28b130719 tools lib lk: Fix _FORTIFY_SOURCE builds
Jiri Olsa triggers the following build error:

    SUBDIR ../lib/lk/
    CC debugfs.o
In file included from /usr/include/errno.h:29:0,
                 from debugfs.c:1:
/usr/include/features.h:314:4: error: #warning _FORTIFY_SOURCE requires compiling with optimization (-O) [-Werror=cpp]

This is because enabling buffer overflow checks through _FORTIFY_SOURCE
require compiler optimizations to be enabled too. However, those are
not. Enable them by simply copying the perf optimization level. It can
be expanded later if we want to support debug builds, etc.

Cody P Schafer 861e10be08 perf tools: Fix build on non-glibc systems due to libio.h absence
Including libio.h causes build failures on uClibc systems (which lack
libio.h).

It appears that libio.h was only included to pull in a definition for
NULL, so it has been replaced by stddef.h.

On powerpc, libio.h was conditionally included, but could be removed
completely as it is unneeded. Also, the included of stdlib.h was changed
to stddef.h (as again, only NULL is needed).

Linus Torvalds 8f55cea410 Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "There are lots of improvements, the biggest changes are:

  Main kernel side changes:

   - Improve uprobes performance by adding 'pre-filtering' support, by
     Oleg Nesterov.

   - Make some POWER7 events available in sysfs, equivalent to what was
     done on x86, from Sukadev Bhattiprolu.

   - tracing updates by Steve Rostedt - mostly misc fixes and smaller
     improvements.

   - Use perf/event tracing to report PCI Express advanced errors, by
     Tony Luck.

   - Enable northbridge performance counters on AMD family 15h, by Jacob
     Shin.

   - This tracing commit:

        tracing: Remove the extra 4 bytes of padding in events

     changes the ABI.  All involved parties (PowerTop in particular)
     seem to agree that it's safe to do now with the introduction of
     libtraceevent, but the devil is in the details ...

  Main tooling side changes:

   - Add 'event group view', from Namyung Kim:

     To use it, 'perf record' should group events when recording.  And
     then perf report parses the saved group relation from file header
     and prints them together if --group option is provided.  You can
     use the 'perf evlist' command to see event group information:

        $ perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles}' noploop 1
        [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.385 MB perf.data (~16807 samples) ]

        $ perf evlist --group
        {ref-cycles,cycles}

     With this example, default perf report will show you each event
     separately.

     You can use --group option to enable event group view:

        $ perf report --group
        ...
        # group: {ref-cycles,cycles}
        # ========
        # Samples: 7K of event 'anon group { ref-cycles, cycles }'
        # Event count (approx.): 6876107743

     As you can see the Overhead column now contains both of ref-cycles
     and cycles and header line shows group information also - 'anon
     group { ref-cycles, cycles }'.  The output is sorted by period of
     group leader first.

For this add a reference to main container (notebook) to the pgctx.  At

setup a new browser, and next calls will add new tabs to the browser.
But it requires final perf_gtk__show_annotations() to start processing

Namhyung Kim e3a34029c6 perf annotate: Fix warning message on a missing vmlinux
When perf annotate runs with no vmlinux file it cannot annotate kernel
symbols because the kallsyms only provides symbol addresses.  So it
recommends to run perf buildid-cache to install proper vmlinux image.

But running perf buildid-cache -av vmlinux as the message gives me a
following error:

  $ perf buildid-cache -av /home/namhyung/build/kernel/vmlinux
  Couldn't add v: No such file or directory

Since the -a option receives a parameter, 'v' should not be after the
option.

In addition -a option is not work for this case since the build-id cache
already has a kallsyms with same build-id so it'll fail with EEXIST.
Use recently added -u (--update) option for it.

Paul Gortmaker 91b988048b perf tools: Fix calloc argument ordering
A sweep of the kernel for regex "kcalloc(sizeof" turned up 2 reversed
args, fixed in commit d3d09e1820 ("EDAC:
Fix kcalloc argument order") and also fixed in the networking commit
a1b1add07f ("gro: Fix kcalloc argument
order").

I know that was the regex used, because on seeing the 1st of these
changes, I wondered "how many other instances of this are there" and I
happened to just use "calloc(sizeof" as a regex and it in turn found
these additional reversed args instances in the perf code.

In the kcalloc cases, the changes are cosmetic, since the numbers are
simply multiplied.  I had no desire to go data mining in userspace to
see if the same thing held true there, however.

Jiri Olsa 0c5268bf22 perf hists browser: Add support to display whole group data for raw columns
Currently we don't display group members' values for raw columns like
'Samples' and 'Period' when in group report mode.

Uniting '__hpp__percent_fmt' and '__hpp__raw_fmt' function under new
function __hpp__fmt. It's basically '__hpp__percent_fmt' code with new
'fmt_percent' bool parameter added saying whether raw number or
percentage should be printed.

This way raw columns print out all the group members when
in group report mode, like:

This patch adds per-processor socket count aggregation for system-wide

sockets.

To enable this mode, use --aggr-socket in addition
to -a. (system-wide).

The output includes the socket number and the number of online
processors on that socket. This is useful to gauge the amount of
aggregation.

 # ./perf stat -I 1000 -a --aggr-socket -e cycles sleep 2
 #           time socket cpus             counts events

Stephane Eranian 5ac59a8a77 perf tools: Add cpu_map processor socket level functions
This patch adds:
- cpu_map__get_socket: get socked id from cpu
- cpu_map__build_socket_map: build socket map
- cpu_map__socket: gets acutal socket from logical socket

Those functions are used by uncore and processor socket-level
aggregation modes.

David Ahern 0479b8b9cf perf evlist: Make event_copy local to mmaps
I am getting segfaults *after* the time sorting of perf samples where
the event type is off the charts:

(gdb) bt
\#0  0x0807b1b2 in hists__inc_nr_events (hists=0x80a99c4, type=1163281902) at util/hist.c:1225
\#1  0x08070795 in perf_session_deliver_event (session=0x80a9b90, event=0xf7a6aff8, sample=0xffffc318, tool=0xffffc520,
    file_offset=0) at util/session.c:884
\#2  0x0806f9b9 in flush_sample_queue (s=0x80a9b90, tool=0xffffc520) at util/session.c:555
\#3  0x0806fc53 in process_finished_round (tool=0xffffc520, event=0x0, session=0x80a9b90) at util/session.c:645

This is bizarre because the event has already been processed once --
before it was added to the samples queue -- and the event was found to
be sane at that time.

There seem to be 2 causes:

1. perf_evlist__mmap_read updates the read location even though there
are outstanding references to events sitting in the mmap buffers via the
ordered samples queue.

2. There is a single evlist->event_copy for all evlist entries.
event_copy is used to handle an event wrapping at the mmap buffer
boundary.

This patch addresses the second problem - making event_copy local to
each perf_mmap. With this change my highly repeatable use case no longer
fails.

The first problem is much more complicated and will be the subject of a
future patch.

Namhyung Kim 5936f54d6c perf sort: Check return value of strdup()
When setup_sorting() is called, 'str' is passed to strtok_r() but it's
not checked to have a valid pointer.  As strtok_r() accepts NULL pointer
on a first argument and use the third argument in that case, it can
cause a trouble since our third argument, tmp, is not initialized.

Namhyung Kim 5530998577 perf sort: Make setup_sorting returns an error code
Currently the setup_sorting() is called for parsing sort keys and exits
if it failed to add the sort key.  As it's included in libperf it'd be
better returning an error code rather than exiting application inside of
the library.

Namhyung Kim 51f27d1440 perf sort: Drop ip_[lr] arguments from _sort__sym_cmp()
Current _sort__sym_cmp() function is used for comparing symbols between
two hist entries on symbol, symbol_from and symbol_to sort keys.  Those
functions pass addresses of symbols but it's meaningless since it gets
over-written inside of the _sort__sym_cmp function to a start address of
the symbol.  So just get rid of them.

This might cause a difference than prior output for branch stacks since
it seems not using start address of the symbol but branch address.
However AFAICS it'd be same as it gets overwritten anyway.

Also remove redundant part of code in sort__sym_cmp().
