perf annotate: Display total number of samples with --show-total-period

2015-06-19T19:39:18+00:00

To compare two records on an instruction base, with --show-total-period
option provided, display total number of samples that belong to a line
in assembly language.

New hot key 't' is introduced for 'perf annotate' TUI.

perf tools: Check if a map is still in use when deleting it

2015-05-27T23:27:16+00:00

I.e. match RB_CLEAR_NODE() with RB_EMPTY_NODE(), to check that it isn't
in a rb tree at the time of its deletion.

perf machine: Protect the machine->threads with a rwlock

2015-05-08T19:19:27+00:00

In addition to using refcounts for the struct thread lifetime
management, we need to protect access to machine->threads from
concurrent access.

That happens in 'perf top', where a thread processes events, inserting
and deleting entries from that rb_tree while another thread decays
hist_entries, that end up dropping references and ultimately deleting
threads from the rb_tree and releasing its resources when no further
hist_entry (or other data structures, like in 'perf sched') references
it.

So the rule is the same for refcounts + protected trees in the kernel,
get the tree lock, find object, bump the refcount, drop the tree lock,
return, use object, drop the refcount if no more use of it is needed,
keep it if storing it in some other data structure, drop when releasing
that data structure.

I.e. pair "t = machine__find(new)_thread()" with a "thread__put(t)", and
"perf_event__preprocess_sample(&al)" with "addr_location__put(&al)".

The addr_location__put() one is because as we return references to
several data structures, we may end up adding more reference counting
for the other data structures and then we'll drop it at
addr_location__put() time.

perf report: Show progress bar for output resorting

2014-12-23T15:01:37+00:00

Sometimes it takes a long time to resort hist entries for output in case
of a large data file.  Show a progress bar window and inform user.

perf tools: Remove hists from evsel

2014-10-14T20:32:52+00:00

Now tools that deals want to have an hists per evsel need to call
hists__init() before creating any evsels, which can be as early as when
parsing the command line, so do it before calling parse_options().

The current tools using hists/hist_entries are report, top and annotate,
change them to request per evsel hists.

This is in preparation for making evsels usable by 3rd party tools, that
not necessarily live in perf's source code repository.

perf session: Remove last reference to hists struct

2014-10-14T14:41:25+00:00

Now perf_session doesn't require that the evsels in its evlist are hists
containing ones.

Tools that are hists based and want to do per evsel events_stats
updates, if at some point this turns into a necessity, should do it in
the tool specific code, keeping the session class hists agnostic.

perf evsel: Add hists helper

2014-10-09T16:13:41+00:00

Not all tools need a hists instance per perf_evsel, so lets pave the way
to remove evsel->hists while leaving a way to access the hists from a
specially allocated evsel, one that comes with space at the end where
lives the evsel.

perf tools: Modify error code for when perf_session__new() fails

2014-09-26T15:32:58+00:00

Because perf_session__new() can fail for more reasons than just ENOMEM,
modify error code(ENOMEM or EINVAL) to -1.
