perf tools: Add attr->mmap2 support

2013-09-11T13:09:32+00:00

This patch adds support for the new PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 record type
exposed by the kernel. This is an extended PERF_RECORD_MMAP record.

It adds for each file-backed mapping the device major, minor number and
the inode number and generation.

This triplet uniquely identifies the source of a file-backed mapping. It
can be used to detect identical virtual mappings between processes, for
instance.

The patch will prefer MMAP2 over MMAP.

[ Cope with 314add6 "Change machine__findnew_thread() to set thread pid",
  fix 'perf test' regression test entry affected,
  use perf_missing_features.mmap2 to fallback to not using .mmap2 in older kernels,
  so that new tools can work with kernels where this feature is not present ]

perf tools: Add test for parsing with no sample_id_all bit

2013-09-05T19:17:46+00:00

Add a test for parsing a non-sample event when there is more than one
selected event but no sample_id_all bit set.

The test fails because of a bug in the evlist logic.  That is fixed in a
separate patch.

perf tests: Add 'keep tracking' test

2013-09-02T17:58:20+00:00

Add a test for the newly added PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY event.  The test
checks that tracking events continue when an event is disabled but a
dummy software event is not disabled.

perf tools: Add support for PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER

2013-08-29T19:09:31+00:00

Enable parsing of samples with sample format bit PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER.
In addition, if the kernel supports it, prefer it to selecting
PERF_SAMPLE_ID thereby allowing non-matching sample types.

perf tools: Remove references to struct ip_event

2013-08-29T18:29:28+00:00

The ip_event struct assumes fixed positions for ip, pid and tid.  That
is no longer true with the addition of PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER.  The
information is anyway in struct sample, so use that instead.

perf tools: change machine__findnew_thread() to set thread pid

2013-08-29T14:51:31+00:00

Add a new parameter for 'pid' to machine__findnew_thread().
Change callers to pass 'pid' when it is known.

Note that callers sometimes want to find the main thread
which has the memory maps.  The main thread has tid == pid
so the usage in that case is:

	machine__findnew_thread(machine, pid, pid)

whereas the usage to find the specific thread is:

	machine__findnew_thread(machine, pid, tid)

perf tests: Fix compile failure on do_sort_something

2013-08-14T14:42:45+00:00

Commit b55ae0a9 added code-reading.c which fails to compile on Fedora 16
with compiler version:
$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.6.3 20120306 (Red Hat 4.6.3-2)

Failure message is:

perf tools: Remove filter parameter of thread__find_addr_map()

2013-08-12T13:31:12+00:00

Now that the symbol filter is recorded on the machine there is no need
to pass it to thread__find_addr_map().  So remove it.
