2013-11-12perf record: Fix segfault with --no-mmap-pagesDavid Ahern
Adrian reported a segfault when using --no-out-pages: $ tools/perf/perf record -vv --no-out-pages uname Segmentation fault (core dumped) The same occurs with --no-mmap-pages. Fix by checking that str is non-NULL before parsing it.

Per request from Pekka make --summary a summary only option meaning do not show the individual system calls. Add another option to see all syscalls along with the summary.

2013-11-12perf trace: Simplify '--summary' outputPekka Enberg
The output of 'perf trace --summary' tries to be too cute with formatting and makes it very hard to read.

2013-11-11perf evsel: Remove idx parm from constructorArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Most uses of the evsel constructor are followed by a call to perf_evlist__add with an idex of evlist->nr_entries, so make rename the current constructor to perf_evsel__new_idx and remove the need for passing the constructor for the common case. We still need the new_idx variant because the way groups are handled, with evsel->nr_members holding the number of entries in an evlist, partitioning the evlist into sublists inside a single linked list. This asks for a clarifying refactoring, but for now simplify the non parser cases, so that tool writers don't have to bother with evsel idx setting.

2013-11-11perf ui tui progress: Don't force a refresh during progress updatePatrick Palka
Each call to tui_progress__update() would forcibly refresh the entire screen. This is somewhat inefficient and causes noticable flickering during the startup of perf-report, especially on large/slow terminals. It looks like the force-refresh in tui_progress__update() serves no purpose other than to clear the screen so that the progress bar of a previous operation does not subsume that of a subsequent operation. But we can do just that in a much more efficient manner by clearing only the region that a previous progress bar may have occupied before repainting the new progress bar. Then the force-refresh could be removed with no change in visuals. This patch disables the slow force-refresh in tui_progress__update() and instead calls SLsmg_fill_region() on the entire area that the progress bar may occupy before repainting it. This change makes the startup of perf-report much faster and appear much "smoother". It turns out that this was a big bottleneck in the startup speed of perf-report -- with this patch, perf-report starts up ~2x faster (1.1s vs 0.55s) on my machines. (These numbers were measured by running "time perf report" on an 8MB perf.data and pressing 'q' immediately.)

2013-11-09uprobes: Fix the memory out of bound overwrite in copy_insn()Oleg Nesterov
1. copy_insn() doesn't look very nice, all calculations are confusing and it is not immediately clear why do we read the 2nd page first. 2. The usage of inode->i_size is wrong on 32-bit machines. 3. "Instruction at end of binary" logic is simply wrong, it doesn't handle the case when uprobe->offset > inode->i_size. In this case "bytes" overflows, and __copy_insn() writes to the memory outside of uprobe->arch.insn. Yes, uprobe_register() checks i_size_read(), but this file can be truncated after that. All i_size checks are racy, we do this only to catch the obvious mistakes. Change copy_insn() to call __copy_insn() in a loop, simplify and fix the bytes/nbytes calculations. Note: we do not care if we read extra bytes after inode->i_size if we got the valid page. This is fine because the task gets the same page after page-fault, and arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() can't know how many bytes were actually read anyway. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/oleg/misc into perf/core Pull uprobes updates from Oleg Nesterov: " [...] this way the upcoming ARM port doesn't (almost) need changes outside of arch/arm and thus it would be simpler to route everything via the ARM trees.

2013-11-06uprobes: Export write_opcode() as uprobe_write_opcode()Oleg Nesterov
set_swbp() and set_orig_insn() are __weak, but this is pointless because write_opcode() is static. Export write_opcode() as uprobe_write_opcode() for the upcoming arm port, this way it can actually override set_swbp() and use __opcode_to_mem_arm(bpinsn) instead if UPROBE_SWBP_INSN. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>
2013-11-06uprobes: Introduce arch_uprobe->ixolOleg Nesterov
Currently xol_get_insn_slot() assumes that we should simply copy arch_uprobe->insn[] which is (ignoring arch_uprobe_analyze_insn) just the copy of the original insn. This is not true for arm which needs to create another insn to execute it out-of-line. So this patch simply adds the new member, ->ixol into the union. This doesn't make any difference for x86 and powerpc, but arm can divorce insn/ixol and initialize the correct xol insn in arch_uprobe_analyze_insn(). Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>
2013-11-06uprobes: Kill module_init() and module_exit()Oleg Nesterov
Turn module_init() into __initcall() and kill module_exit(). This code can't be compiled as a module so these module_*() calls only add the confusion, especially if arch-dependant code needs its own initialization hooks. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

2013-11-06perf/x86/intel: Add Ivy Bridge-EP uncore IRP box supportYan, Zheng
Unlike other uncore boxes, IRP boxes live in PCI buses with no UBOX device. For PCI bus without UBOX device, we find the next bus that has UBOX device and use its 'bus to socket' mapping. Besides the counter/control registers in IRP boxes are not properly aligned.

2013-11-06perf: Factor out strncpy() in perf_event_mmap_event()Oleg Nesterov
While this is really minor, but strncpy() does the unnecessary zero-padding till the end of tmp[16] and it is called every time we are going to use the string literal.

2013-11-06perf: Fix arch_perf_out_copy_user defaultPeter Zijlstra
The arch_perf_output_copy_user() default of __copy_from_user_inatomic() returns bytes not copied, while all other argument functions given DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() return bytes copied. Since copy_from_user_nmi() is the odd duck out by returning bytes copied where all other *copy_{to,from}* functions return bytes not copied, change it over and ammend DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() to expect bytes not copied. Oddly enough DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() already returned bytes not copied while expecting its worker functions to return bytes copied.

2013-11-06perf: Add unlikely() to the ring-buffer codePeter Zijlstra
Add unlikely() annotations to 'slow' paths: When having a sampling event but no output buffer; you have bigger issues -- also the bail is still faster than actually doing the work. When having a sampling event but a control page only buffer, you have bigger issues -- again the bail is still faster than actually doing work. Optimize for the case where you're not loosing events -- again, not doing the work is still faster but make sure that when you have to actually do work its as fast as possible. The typical watermark is 1/2 the buffer size, so most events will not take this path. Shrinks perf_output_begin() by 16 bytes on x86_64-defconfig.
