14 years agoperf record: Add option to avoid updating buildid cache

perf record: Add option to avoid updating buildid cache

There are situations where there is enough information in the perf.data
to process the samples. Updating the buildid cache may add unecessary
overhead in terms of disk space and time (copying large elf images).

A persistent option to do this already exists via the perfconfig file,
simply do:

[buildid]
dir = /dev/null

This patch provides a way to suppress builid cache updates on a per-run
basis.  It addds a new option, -N, to perf record. Buildids are still
generated in the perf.data file.

14 years agoperf symbols: Function descriptor symbol lookup

perf symbols: Function descriptor symbol lookup

Currently symbol resolution does not work for 64-bit programs on architectures
that use function descriptors such as ppc64.

The problem is that a symbol doesn't point to a text address, it points to a
data area that contains (amongst other things) a pointer to the text address.

We look for a section called ".opd" which is the function descriptor area. To
create the full symbol table, when we see a symbol in the function descriptor
section we load the first pointer and use that as the text address.

perf tools: Reorganize the Makefile feature tests

Moving the tests to a separate file, feature-tests.mak and using a try-cc
function similar to the try-run in Kbuild.

This also makes the output more quiet as we can stop using the INTERMEDIATE
target to remove the .perf.dev.null file needed for some gcc versions where
/dev/null can't be used as the output file name.

As the tests get shorter by uninlining the source code used to test for
features, we can more properly use identation.

The feature tests itself can be made more clear and reused, like when trying to
see what is needed to have bfd_demangle.

We also get a bit closer to reusing scripts/Kbuild.include, reducing the
distance from the kernel build system.

declare headers of objects that deal with the same topic.
Actually most of the files that include stacktrace.h also include
dumpstack.h

Although dumpstack.h seems more reserved for internals of stack
traces, those are quite often needed to define specialized stack
trace operations. And perf event arch headers are going to need
access to such low level operations anyway. So don't continue to
bother with dumpstack.h as it's not anymore about isolated deep
internals.

perf: Fix signed comparison in perf_adjust_period()

Frederic reported that frequency driven swevents didn't work properly
and even caused a division-by-zero error.

It turns out there are two bugs, the division-by-zero comes from a
failure to deal with that in perf_calculate_period().

The other was more interesting and turned out to be a wrong comparison
in perf_adjust_period(). The comparison was between an s64 and u64 and
got implicitly converted to an unsigned comparison. The problem is
that period_left is typically < 0, so it ended up being always true.

Cure this by making the local period variables s64.

14 years agotracing: Remove ftrace_preempt_disable/enable
Steven Rostedt [Thu, 3 Jun 2010 13:36:50 +0000 (09:36 -0400)]
tracing: Remove ftrace_preempt_disable/enable

The ftrace_preempt_disable/enable functions were to address a
recursive race caused by the function tracer. The function tracer
traces all functions which makes it easily susceptible to recursion.
One area was preempt_enable(). This would call the scheduler and
the schedulre would call the function tracer and loop.
(So was it thought).

The ftrace_preempt_disable/enable was made to protect against recursion
inside the scheduler by storing the NEED_RESCHED flag. If it was
set before the ftrace_preempt_disable() it would not call schedule
on ftrace_preempt_enable(), thinking that if it was set before then
it would have already scheduled unless it was already in the scheduler.

This worked fine except in the case of SMP, where another task would set
the NEED_RESCHED flag for a task on another CPU, and then kick off an
IPI to trigger it. This could cause the NEED_RESCHED to be saved at
ftrace_preempt_disable() but the IPI to arrive in the the preempt
disabled section. The ftrace_preempt_enable() would not call the scheduler
because the flag was already set before entring the section.

This bug would cause a missed preemption check and cause lower latencies.

Investigating further, I found that the recusion caused by the function
tracer was not due to schedule(), but due to preempt_schedule(). Now
that preempt_schedule is completely annotated with notrace, the recusion
no longer is an issue.

preemption instead of normal preempt_disable(). But there's a slight
race condition that may cause it to lose a preemption check.

This was made to keep the function tracer from recursing on itself
by disabling preemption then having the enable call the function tracer
again, causing infinite recursion.

The bug was assumed to happen if the call was just in schedule, but
this is incorrect. The bug is caused by preempt_schedule() which
is called by preempt_enable(). The calling of preempt_enable() when
NEED_RESCHED was set would call preempt_schedule() which would call
the function tracer again.

By making the preempt_schedule() and add_preempt_count() notrace
then this will prevent the inifinite recursion. This is because
the add_preempt_count() would stop the preempt_enable() in the
function tracer from calling preempt_schedule() again.

The sub_preempt_count() is also made notrace just to keep it
symmetric.

If both call ->disable, we get a double hlist_del_rcu() and trigger

perf: Process comm events by tid

When we synthetize the existing running tasks though procfs,
we walk through every threads of a process, queuing one comm
events per tid.

But then on report time, event__process_comm() only creates and
sets the comm on a per process granularity. This is the right
thing for comm events that came from the kernel, as they are

comm events taken from procfs informations as the per thread
granularity is done on comm events directly there.

Hence we need event__process_comm() to work with the tid rather
than the pid. It won't change anything for comm events coming

14 years agoperf_events: Fix event scheduling issues introduced by transactional API
Stephane Eranian [Tue, 25 May 2010 14:23:10 +0000 (16:23 +0200)]
perf_events: Fix event scheduling issues introduced by transactional API

The transactional API patch between the generic and model-specific
code introduced several important bugs with event scheduling, at
least on X86. If you had pinned events, e.g., watchdog,  and were
over-committing the PMU, you would get bogus counts. The bug was
showing up on Intel CPU because events would move around more
often that on AMD. But the problem also existed on AMD, though
harder to expose.

The issues were:

 - group_sched_in() was missing a cancel_txn() in the error path

 - cpuc->n_added was not properly maintained, leading to missing
   actions in hw_perf_enable(), i.e., n_running being 0. You cannot
   update n_added until you know the transaction has succeeded. In
   case of failed transaction n_added was not adjusted back.

 - in case of failed transactions, event_sched_out() was called
   and eventually invoked x86_disable_event() to touch the HW reg.
   But with transactions, on X86, event_sched_in() does not touch
   HW registers, it simply collects events into a list. Thus, you
   could end up calling x86_disable_event() on a counter which
   did not correspond to the current event when idx != -1.

The patch modifies the generic and X86 code to avoid all those problems.

First, we keep track of the number of events added last. In case the
transaction fails, we substract them from n_added. This approach is
necessary (as opposed to delaying updates to n_added) because not all
event updates use the transaction API, e.g., single events.

Second, we encapsulate the event_sched_in() and event_sched_out() in
group_sched_in() inside the transaction. That makes the operations
symmetrical and you can also detect that you are inside a transaction
and skip the HW reg access by checking cpuc->group_flag.

With this patch, you can now overcommit the PMU even with pinned
system-wide events present and still get valid counts.

ALSA: snd-usb-caiaq: Restore 'Control vinyl' input mode on A4DJ

This feature was undocumented on early A4DJ units. It is indicated
by lighting both the 'line' and 'phono' lamps at the same time.
Newer units document this and the newer Windows drivers enable this
for all units, so restore the functionality.

This patch simplifies the code and changes the mode mapping to match
the A8DJ, favouring simpler code and consistency over keeping the
existing mapping.

Both 'Control vinyl' and 'Phono' input modes enable the hardware
preamp. The difference is the input impedance.

This reverts commit 9a9527e.

ALSA: hda: Use LPIB for a Shuttle device

BugLink: https://launchpad.net/bugs/551949
Symptom: On the reporter's Shuttle device, using PulseAudio in Ubuntu
10.04 LTS results in "popping clicking" audio with the PA crashing
shortly thereafter.

Test case: Using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Linux 2.6.32.12), Linux 2.6.33, or
Linux 2.6.34, adjust the HDA device's volume with PulseAudio.

Resolution: add SSID for this machine to the position_fix quirk table,
explicitly specifying the LPIB method.
