perf thread_map: Add thread_map__remove function

2016-12-15T19:25:45+00:00

Add thread_map__remove function to remove thread from thread map.

Add automated test also.

Committer notes:

Testing it:

  # perf test "Remove thread map"
  39: Remove thread map                          : Ok
  # perf test -v "Remove thread map"
  39: Remove thread map                          :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 4483
  2 threads: 4482, 4483
  1 thread: 4483
  0 thread:
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----
  Remove thread map: Ok

perf clang: Add builtin clang support ant test case

2016-12-05T18:51:43+00:00

Add basic clang support in clang.cpp and test__clang() testcase. The
first testcase checks if builtin clang is able to generate LLVM IR.

tests/clang.c is a proxy. Real testcase resides in
utils/c++/clang-test.cpp in c++ and exports C interface to perf test
subsystem.

Test result:

   $ perf test -v clang
   51: builtin clang support                               :
   51.1: Test builtin clang compile C source to IR              :
   --- start ---
   test child forked, pid 13215
   test child finished with 0
   ---- end ----
   Test builtin clang support subtest 0: Ok

Committer note:

Make sure you've enabled CLANG and LLVM builtin support by setting
the LIBCLANGLLVM variable on the make command line, e.g.:

  make LIBCLANGLLVM=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin

Otherwise you'll get this when trying to do the 'perf test' call above:

  # perf test clang
  51: builtin clang support                      : Skip (not compiled in)

perf tools: Introduce perf hooks

2016-11-29T15:13:27+00:00

Perf hooks allow hooking user code at perf events. They can be used for
manipulation of BPF maps, taking snapshot and reporting results. In this
patch two perf hook points are introduced: record_start and record_end.

To avoid buggy user actions, a SIGSEGV signal handler is introduced into
'perf record'. It turns off perf hook if it causes a segfault and report
an error to help debugging.

A test case for perf hook is introduced.

Test result:
  $ ./buildperf/perf test -v hook
  50: Test perf hooks                                          :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 10311
  SIGSEGV is observed as expected, try to recover.
  Fatal error (SEGFAULT) in perf hook 'test'
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----
  Test perf hooks: Ok

perf test: Add a test case for SDT event

2016-07-14T02:09:10+00:00

Add a basic test case for SDT event support.  This test scans an SDT
event in perftools and check whether the SDT event is correctly stored
into the buildid cache.

Here is an example:

  ----
  $ perf test sdt -v
  47: Test SDT event probing                                   :

perf tests: Add test to check backward ring buffer

2016-05-09T21:11:22+00:00

This test checks reading from backward ring buffer.

Test result:

  # ~/perf test 'ring buffer'
  45: Test backward reading from ring buffer                   : Ok

The test case is a while loop which calls prctl(PR_SET_NAME) multiple
times.  Each prctl should issue 2 events: one PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE, one
PERF_RECORD_COMM.

The first round creates a relative large ring buffer (256 pages). It can
afford all events. Read from it and check the count of each type of
events.

The second round creates a small ring buffer (1 page) and makes it
overwritable. Check the correctness of the buffer.
