* perf buildid: add perfconfig option to specify buildid cache dirStephane Eranian2010-06-051-5/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the ability to specify an alternate directory to store the buildid cache (buildids, copy of binaries). By default, it is hardcoded to $HOME/.debug. This directory contains immutable data. The layout of the directory is such that no conflicts in filenames are possible. A modification in a file, yields a different buildid and thus a different location in the subdir hierarchy. You may want to put the buildid cache elsewhere because of disk space limitation or simply to share the cache between users. It is also useful for remote collect vs. local analysis of profiles. This patch adds a new config option to the perfconfig file. Under the tag 'buildid', there is a dir option. For instance, if you have: $ cat /etc/perfconfig [buildid] dir = /var/cache/perf-buildid All buildids and binaries are be saved in the directory specified. The perf record, buildid-list, buildid-cache, report, annotate, and archive commands will it to pull information out. The option can be set in the system-wide perfconfig file or in the $HOME/.perfconfig file. Cc: David S.

Or just do an extra pass and insert the calculated build-ids in the perf.data header.

* perf archive: Add helper script to package files needed to do analysisArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2010-01-161-0/+32
It uses 'perf buildid-list --with-hits' to create a tarball with what is needed to have in the destination machine ~/.debug hierarchy to properly decode the perf.data file specified. Here is an example where a perf.data file collected on a x86-64 machine running Fedora 12 is used and then the data is packaged, transferred and decoded on a PARISC64 machine running Debian Testing, 32-bit userspace: [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# uname -a Linux doppio.ghostprotocols.net 2.6.33-rc4-tip+ #3 SMP Wed Jan 13 11:58:15 BRST 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf archive [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# ls -la perf.data* -rw------- 1 root root 737696 2010-01-14 23:36 perf.data -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8840025 2010-01-15 12:27 perf.data.tar.bz2 [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# scp perf.data.* parisc64:.
