perf tools: Fix report -F dso_from for data without branch info

2014-10-29T12:29:05+00:00

The branch field sorting code assumes hist_entry::branch_info is
allocated, which is wrong and following perf session ends up with report
segfault.

  $ perf record ls
  $ perf report -F dso_from
  perf: Segmentation fault

Checking that hist_entry::branch_info is valid and display "N/A" string
in snprint callback if it's not.

perf tools: Make CPUINFO_PROC an array to support different kernel versions

2014-10-29T12:27:36+00:00

After kernel 3.7 (commit b4b8f770eb10a1bccaf8aa0ec1956e2dd7ed1e0a),
/proc/cpuinfo replaces 'Processor' to 'model name'.

This patch makes CPUINFO_PROC to an array and provides two choices for
ARM, makes it compatible for different kernel version.

v1 -> v2: minor changes as suggested by Namhyung Kim:

 - Doesn't pass @h and @evlist to __write_cpudesc;
 - Coding style fix.

v2 -> v3:
  - Rebase:

perf callchain: Use global caching provided by libunwind

2014-10-29T12:25:22+00:00

The libunwind provides two caching policy which are global and
per-thread.  As perf unwinds callchains in a single thread, it'd
sufficient to use global caching.

This speeds up my perf report from 14s to 7s on a ~260MB data file.
Although the output sometimes contains a slight difference (~0.01% in
terms of number of lines printed) on callchains which were not resolved.

perf evsel: No need to drag util/cgroup.h

2014-10-17T15:17:40+00:00

The only thing we need is a forward declaration for 'struct cgroup_sel',
that is inside 'struct perf_evsel'.

Include cgroup.h instead on the tools that support cgroups.
