perf evlist: Rename for_each() macros to for_each_entry()

2016-06-23T14:26:15+00:00

To match the semantics for list.h in the kernel, that are used to
implement those macros.

perf test: Ignore .scale and other special files

2016-06-06T15:11:14+00:00

'perf test' tries to parse all entries in /sys/devices/cpu/events/.
Ignore the special entries like '.scale', which cannot be directly
parsed as an event. This patch assumes all files containing a '.' are
special and can be ignored.

perf tools: Enable config and setting names for legacy cache events

2016-02-19T22:12:51+00:00

This patch allows setting config terms for legacy cache events.
For example:

  # perf stat -e L1-icache-misses/name=valA/ -e branches/name=valB/ ls
  ...
   Performance counter stats for 'ls':

              11299      valA
             451605      valB

        0.000779091 seconds time elapsed

  # perf record -e cache-misses/name=inh/ -e cache-misses/name=noinh,no-inherit/ bash
  # ls
  # exit
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.023 MB perf.data (131 samples) ]
  # perf report --stdio | grep -B 1 'Event count'
  # Samples: 105  of event 'inh'
  # Event count (approx.): 109118
  --
  # Samples: 26  of event 'noinh'
  # Event count (approx.): 48302

A test case is introduced to test this feature.

perf tools: Enable config raw and numeric events

2016-02-19T22:12:50+00:00

This patch allows setting config terms for raw and numeric events.
For example:

  # perf stat -e cycles/name=cyc/ ls
  ...
  1821108      cyc
  ...

  # perf stat -e r6530160/name=event/ ls
  ...
  1103195      event
  ...

  # perf record -e cycles -e 4:0x6530160/name=evtx,call-graph=fp/ -a sleep 1
  ...
  # perf report --stdio
  ...
  # Samples: 124  of event 'cycles'
  46.61%     0.00%  swapper        [kernel.vmlinux]            [k] cpu_startup_entry

  ...
  # Samples: 91  of event 'evtx'
  ...
  93.76%     0.00%  swapper      [kernel.vmlinux]            [k] cpu_startup_entry
          |
          ---cpu_startup_entry
             |
             |--66.63%--call_cpuidle
             |          cpuidle_enter
             |          |
  ...

3 test cases are introduced to test config terms for symbol, raw and
numeric events.

Committer note:

Further testing shows that we can retrieve the event name using 'perf
evlist -v' and looking at the 'config' perf_event_attr field, i.e.:

  # perf record -e cycles -e 4:0x6530160/name=evtx,call-graph=fp/ -a sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.724 MB perf.data (2076 samples) ]
  # perf evlist
  cycles
  evtx
  # perf evlist -v
  cycles: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
evtx: type: 4, size: 112, config: 0x6530160, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CALLCHAIN|CPU|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, freq: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1

perf tools: Use perf_event_terms__purge() for non-malloced terms

2016-02-12T19:53:22+00:00

In these two cases, a 'perf test' entry and in the PMU code the
list_head is on the stack, so we can't use perf_event__free_terms()
(soon to be renamed to perf_event_terms__delete()), because it will
free the list_head as well.

perf tests: Pass the subtest index to each test routine

2015-11-19T16:19:15+00:00

Some tests have sub-tests we want to run, so allow passing this.

Wang tried to avoid having to touch all tests, but then, having the
test.func in an anonymous union makes the build fail on older compilers,
like the one in RHEL6, where:

  test a = {
	.func = foo,
  };

fails.

To fix it leave the func pointer in the main structure and pass the subtest
index to all tests, end result function is the same, but we have just one
function pointer, not two, with and without the subtest index as an argument.

perf test: Suppress libtraceevent warnings

2015-10-19T17:58:10+00:00

Currently libtraceevent emits warning on unsupported event formats.
However it'd be better to see them only -v option is given.  To do that,
it needs to override the warning() function which is used in the
libtracevent.  Thus add set_warning_routine() same as set_die_routine()
and check the verbose flag in our warning routine.

Before:
  # perf test 5
   5: parse events tests                                       :
    Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_get_page] bad op token {
    Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_sync_page] bad op token {
    Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_unsync_page] bad op token {
    Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page] bad op token {
    Warning: [kvmmmu:fast_page_fault] function is_writable_pte not defined
    ...
   Ok

After:
  # perf test 5
   5: parse events tests                                       : Ok
