Collecting build-ids for long running sessions may take a long time
because it needs to traverse the whole just collected perf.data stream
of events, marking the DSOs that had hits and then looking for the
.note.gnu.build-id ELF section.
For things like the 'trace' tool that records and right away consumes
the data on systems where its unlikely that the DSOs being monitored
will change while 'trace' runs, it is desirable to remove build id
collection, so add a -B/--no-buildid option to perf record to allow such
use case.
Longer term we'll avoid all this if we, at DSO load time, in the kernel,
take advantage of this slow code path to collect the build-id and stash
it somewhere, so that we can insert it in the PERF_RECORD_MMAP event.

The 59365d1 commit, even being reverted by 33e0d57, showed a non robust
behavior in 'perf record': it really should just warn the user that some
functionality will not be available.
The new behavior then becomes:
[acme@felicio linux]$ ls -la /proc/{kallsyms,modules}
-r-------- 1 root root 0 Nov 22 12:19 /proc/kallsyms
-r-------- 1 root root 0 Nov 22 12:19 /proc/modules
[acme@felicio linux]$ perf record ls -R > /dev/null
Couldn't record kernel reference relocation symbol
Symbol resolution may be skewed if relocation was used (e.g. kexec).
Check /proc/kallsyms permission or run as root.
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.004 MB perf.data (~161 samples) ]

It still has the build-ids for DSOs in the maps with hits:
[acme@felicio linux]$ perf buildid-list
77b05e00e64e4de1c9347d83879779b540d69f00 [kernel.kallsyms]

[acme@felicio linux]$
That can be used in another machine to resolve kernel symbols.

This patch makes several changes to "perf stat":
- "perf stat" will no longer go ahead and run the application when one or
more of the specified events could not be opened.
- Use error() and die() instead of pr_err() so that the output is more
consistent with "perf top" and "perf record".
- Handle permission errors in a more robust way, and in a similar way to
"perf record" and "perf top".
In addition, the sys_perf_event_open() error handling of "perf top" and "perf
record" is made more consistent and adds the following phrase when an event
doesn't open (with something ther than an access or permission error):
"/bin/dmesg may provide additional information."
This is added because kernel code doesn't have a good way of expressing
detailed errors to user space, so its only avenue is to use printk's. However,
many users may not think of looking at dmesg to find out why an event is being
rejected.

Other perf commands that invoke perf record, such as perf trace, may
want to reuse the options used by perf record.
This makes them non-static and renames them to avoid clashes with
other 'options' variables.

then the output will be split across two lines like so,

Deleting the newline character prints a much more readable error,

At exit, perf record will kill the process it was profiling by sending a
SIGTERM to child_pid (if it had been initialised), but in certain situations
child_pid may be 0 and perf would mistakenly kill more processes than intended.
child_pid is set to the return of fork() to either 0 or the pid of the child.
Ordinarily this would not present an issue as the child calls execvp to spawn
the process to be profiled and would therefore never run it's sig_atexit and
never attempt to kill pid 0.
However, if a nonexistant binary had been passed in to perf record the call to
execvp would fail and child_pid would be left set to 0. The child would then
exit and it's atexit handler, finding that child_pid was initialised to 0,
would call kill(0, SIGTERM), resulting in every process within it's process
group being killed.
In the case that perf was being run directly from the shell this typically
would not be an issue as the shell isolates the process. However, if perf was
being called from another program it could kill unexpected processes, which may
even include X.
This patch changes the logic of the test for whether child_pid was initialised
to only consider positive pids as valid, thereby never attempting to kill pid
0.

There are situations where there is enough information in the perf.data
to process the samples. Updating the buildid cache may add unecessary
overhead in terms of disk space and time (copying large elf images).
A persistent option to do this already exists via the perfconfig file,
simply do:
[buildid]
dir = /dev/null
This patch provides a way to suppress builid cache updates on a per-run
basis. It addds a new option, -N, to perf record. Buildids are still
generated in the perf.data file.

A bug was introduced by commit c45c6ea2e5c57960dc67e00294c2b78e9540c007.
Perf record was scanning /proc/PID to create synthetic PERF_RECOR_MMAP
entries even though it was running in per-thread mode. There was a bogus
check to select what mmaps to synthesize. We only need all processes in
system-wide mode.

CPUs due to interference from other programs or kernel threads, the user
should be able to notice that.

perf report --sort cpu,comm
Workload:

This patch adds a -C option to stat, record, top to designate a list of CPUs to
monitor. CPUs can be specified as a comma-separated list or ranges, no space
allowed.
Examples:
$ perf record -a -C0-1,4-7 sleep 1
$ perf top -C0-4
$ perf stat -a -C1,2,3,4 sleep 1
With perf record in per-thread mode with inherit mode on, samples are collected
only when the thread runs on the designated CPUs.
The -C option does not turn on system-wide mode automatically.

Without the bloated cplus_demangle from binutils, i.e building with:
$ make NO_DEMANGLE=1 O=~acme/git/build/perf -j3 -C tools/perf/ install
Before:
text data bss dec hex filename
471851 29280 4025056 4526187 45106b /home/acme/bin/perf
After:
[acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ size ~/bin/perf

446886 29232 4008576 4484694 446e56 /home/acme/bin/perf
So its a 5.3% size reduction in code, but the interesting part is in the git
diff --stat output:
19 files changed, 20 insertions(+), 1909 deletions(-)
If we ever need some of the things we got from git but weren't using, we just
have to go to the git repo and get fresh, uptodate source code bits.

To avoid problems like the one fixed by Stephane Eranian in 3de29ca, now
we'll got this instead:
bench/sched-messaging.c:259: error: negative width in bit-field ‘<anonymous>’
bench/sched-messaging.c:261: error: negative width in bit-field ‘<anonymous>’
Which is rather cryptic, but is how BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO works, so kernel
hackers should be already used to this.
With it in place found some problems, fixed by changing the affected
variables to sensible types or changed some OPT_INTEGER to OPT_UINTEGER.
Next csets will go thru converting each of the remaining OPT_ so that
review can be made easier by grouping changes per type per patch.

The -c option defines the user requested sampling period. It was implemented
using an unsigned int variable but the type of the option was OPT_LONG. Thus,
the option parser was overwriting memory belonging to other variables, namely
the mmap_pages leading to a zero page sampling buffer. The bug was exposed only
when compiling at -O0, probably because the compiler was padding variables at
higher optimization levels.
This patch fixes this problem by declaring user_interval as u64. This also
avoids wrap-around issues for large period on 32-bit systems.
Commiter note:
Made it use OPT_U64(user_interval) after implementing OPT_U64 in the
previous patch.

By default, event inheritance across fork and pthread_create was on but the -i
option of stat and record, which enabled inheritance, led to believe it was off
by default.
This patch fixes this logic by inverting the meaning of the -i option. By
default inheritance is on whether you attach to a process (-p), a thread (-t)
or start a process. If you pass -i, then you turn off inheritance. Turning off
inheritance if you don't need it, helps limit perf resource usage as well.
The patch also fixes perf stat -t xxxx and perf record -t xxxx which did not
start the counters.

In order to provide a more rubust and deterministic reordering
algorithm, we need to know when we reach a point where we just
did a pass through over every counter buffers to read every thing
they had.
This patch introduces a new PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND pseudo event
that only consist in an event header and doesn't need to contain
anything.

Fix a couple of inefficiencies and redundancies related to
have_tracepoints() and its use when checking whether to write
TRACE_INFO.
First, there's no need to use get_tracepoints_path() in
have_tracepoints() - we really just want the part that checks whether
any attributes correspondo to tracepoints.
Second, we really don't care about raw_samples per se - tracepoints
are always raw_samples. In any case, the have_tracepoints() check
should be sufficient to decide whether or not to write TRACE_INFO.

The current perf code implicitly assumes SAMPLE_RAW means tracepoints
are being used, but doesn't check for that. It happily records the
TRACE_INFO even if SAMPLE_RAW is used without tracepoints, but when the
perf data is read it won't go any further when it finds TRACE_INFO but
no tracepoints, and displays misleading errors.
This adds a check for both in perf-record, and won't record TRACE_INFO
unless both are true. This at least allows perf report -D to dump raw
events, and avoids triggering a misleading error condition in perf
trace. It doesn't actually enable the non-tracepoint raw events to be
displayed in perf trace, since perf trace currently only deals with
tracepoint events.

Currently, perf 'live mode' writes build-ids at the end of the
session, which isn't actually useful for processing live mode events.
What would be better would be to have the build-ids sent before any of
the samples that reference them, which can be done by processing the
event stream and retrieving the build-ids on the first hit. Doing
that in perf-record itself, however, is off-limits.
This patch introduces perf-inject, which does the same job while
leaving perf-record untouched. Normal mode perf still records the
build-ids at the end of the session as it should, but for live mode,
perf-inject can be injected in between the record and report steps
e.g.:
perf record -o - ./hackbench 10 | perf inject -v -b | perf report -v -i -
perf-inject reads a perf-record event stream and repipes it to stdout.
At any point the processing code can inject other events into the
event stream - in this case build-ids (-b option) are read and
injected as needed into the event stream.
Build-ids are just the first user of perf-inject - potentially
anything that needs userspace processing to augment the trace stream
with additional information could make use of this facility.

It doesn't really make sense to record the build ids at the end of a
live mode session - live mode samples need that information during the
trace rather than at the end.
Leave event__synthesize_build_id() in place, however; we'll still be
using that to synthesize build ids in a more timely fashion in a
future patch.

Bypasses the tracing_data perf header code and replaces it with
a synthesized event and processing function that accomplishes
the same thing, used when reading/writing perf data to/from a
pipe.
The tracing data is pretty large, and this patch doesn't attempt
to break it down into component events. The tracing_data event
itself doesn't actually contain the tracing data, rather it
arranges for the event processing code to skip over it after
it's read, using the skip return value added to the event
processing loop in a previous patch.

Adds special treatment for stdout - if the user specifies '-o -'
to perf record, the intent is that the event stream be written
to stdout rather than to a disk file.
Also, redirect stdout of forked child to stderr - in pipe mode,
stdout of the forked child interferes with the stdout perf
stream, so redirect it to stderr where it can still be seen but
won't be mixed in with the perf output.

This patch makes several changes to allow the perf event stream
to be sent and received over a pipe:
- adds pipe-specific versions of the header read/write code
- adds pipe-specific version of the event processing code
- adds a range of event types to be used for header or other
pseudo events, above the range used by the kernel
- checks the return value of event handlers, which they can use
to skip over large events during event processing rather than actually
reading them into event objects.
- unifies the multiple do_read() functions and updates its
users.
Note that none of these changes affect the existing perf data
file format or processing - this code only comes into play if
perf output is sent to stdout (or is read from stdin).

Trace events are mostly used for tracing and then require not to
be lost when possible. As opposite to hardware events that really
require to trigger after a given sample period, trace events mostly
need to trigger everytime.
It is a frustrating experience to trace with perf and realize we
lost a lot of events because we forgot the "-c 1" option.
Then default sample_period to 1 for trace events but let the user
override it.

Force the overwriting mode by default if append mode is not explicit.
Adding -f every time one uses perf on a daily basis quickly becomes a
burden.
Keep the -f among the options though to avoid breaking some random
users scripts.

OPT_INCR()
Parsing an option from the command line with OPT_BOOLEAN on a
bool data type would not work on a big-endian machine due to the
manner in which the boolean was being cast into an int and
incremented. For example, running 'perf probe --list' on a
PowerPC machine would fail to properly set the list_events bool
and would therefore print out the usage information and
terminate.
This patch makes OPT_BOOLEAN work as expected with a bool
datatype. For cases where the original OPT_BOOLEAN was
intentionally being used to increment an int each time it was
passed in on the command line, this patch introduces OPT_INCR
with the old behaviour of OPT_BOOLEAN (the verbose variable is
currently the only such example of this).
I have reviewed every use of OPT_BOOLEAN to verify that a true
C99 bool was passed. Where integers were used, I verified that
they were only being used for boolean logic and changed them to
bools to ensure that they would not be mistakenly used as ints.
The major exception was the verbose variable which now uses
OPT_INCR instead of OPT_BOOLEAN.

of thread-wide
Parameter --pid (or -p) of perf currently means a thread-wide
collection. 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.

'perf record' starts counters before subcommand is execed, so
the statistics is not precise because it includes data of some
preparation steps. I fix it with the patch.
In addition, change the condition to fork/exec subcommand. If
there is a subcommand parameter, perf always fork/exec it. The
usage example is:
# perf record -f -a sleep 10
So this command could collect statistics for 10 seconds
precisely. User still could stop it by CTRL+C. Without the new
capability, user could only input CTRL+C to stop it without
precise time clock.

When forking its target, perf record can capture data from
before the target application is started. Perf stat uses the
enable_on_exec flag in the event attributes to keep from
displaying events from before the target program starts, this
patch adds the same functionality to perf record when it is will
fork the target process.
