perf top: Reuse the 'report' hist_entry/hists classes

2011-10-07T19:56:44+00:00

This actually fixes several problems we had in the old 'perf top':

1. Unresolved symbols not show, limitation that came from the old
   "KernelTop" codebase, to solve it we would need to do changes
   that would make sym_entry have most of the hist_entry fields.
2. It was using the number of samples, not the sum of sample->period.

And brings the --sort code that allows us to have all the views in
'perf report', for instance:

[root@emilia ~]# perf top --sort dso
PerfTop: 5903 irqs/sec kernel:77.5% exact: 0.0% [1000Hz cycles], (all, 8 CPUs)

     0.07%  [vdso]

All the filter lists can be used as well: --dsos, --comms, --symbols,
etc.

The 'perf report' TUI is also reused, being possible to apply all the
zoom operations, do annotation, etc.

This change will allow multiple simplifications in the symbol system as
well, that will be detailed in upcoming changesets.

perf tools: Add support for disabling -Werror via WERROR=0

2011-09-23T17:38:07+00:00

GCC often introduces new warnings with lots of false positives -
breaking -Werror builds. WERROR=0 allows one to build perf without much
fuss - while still encouraging people to send patches to avoid the fuss
of having to type WERROR=0.

Bisecting back to commits that produce a (mostly harmless) warning on
some compilers is more difficult. With WERROR=0 one could bisect without
worrying about harmless warnings.

perf tools: Add support to install perf python extension

2011-08-08T15:54:26+00:00

Adding install-python_ext target to install python extension related
files.  Installation directory is governed by python distutils package
and follows the DESTDIR variable settings.

Also moving python extension build output into '$(O)python_ext_build'
directory and making it configurable via PYTHON_EXTBUILD variable.

Keeping the '$(O)python/perf.so' file, so it could be used for testing
as of until now.

perf tools, x86: Fix 32-bit compile on 64-bit system

2011-07-21T11:42:30+00:00

Builds for 32-bit perf binaries on a 64-bit host currently fail
with this error:

 [...]
 bench/../../../arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S: Assembler messages:
 bench/../../../arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S:29: Error: bad register name `%rdi'
 bench/../../../arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S:34: Error: invalid instruction suffix for `movs'
 bench/../../../arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S:50: Error: bad register name `%rdi'
 bench/../../../arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S:61: Error: bad register name `%rdi'
 ...

The problem is the detection of the host arch without considering passed in
flags. This change fixes 32-bit builds via:

make EXTRA_CFLAGS=-m32

and 64-bit builds still reference the memcpy_64.S.

tools/perf: Fix static build of perf tool

2011-06-16T08:17:39+00:00

To build a statically linked version of the perf tool all needed
libraries must be added in the correct order to get the symbols
resolved. Currently this is broken when, e.g. python or newt
support is enabled -- libpython needs libpthread which is an
unconditional link dependency of the perf tool; libslang needs
libm, another unconditional dependency. To solve the problem in
the long run without the need to keep track of transitive
library dependencies, simply make the linker look at the EXTLIBS
multiple times until it has all symbols resolved.
