2011-03-23perf session: Pass evsel in event_ops->sample()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo17-46/+73
Resolving the sample->id to an evsel since the most advanced tools, report and annotate, and the others will too when they evolve to properly support multi-event perf.data files. Good also because it does an extra validation, checking that the ID is valid when present. When that is not the case, the overhead is just a branch + function call (perf_evlist__id2evsel).

2011-03-23perf: Better fit max unprivileged mlock pages for tools needsFrederic Weisbecker1-1/+2
The maximum kilobytes of locked memory that an unprivileged user can reserve is of 512 kB = 128 pages by default, scaled to the number of onlined CPUs, which fits well with the tools that use 128 data pages by default. However tools actually use 129 pages, because they need one more for the user control page. Thus the default mlock threshold is not sufficient for the default tools needs and we always end up to evaluate the constant mlock rlimit policy, which doesn't have this scaling with the number of online CPUs. Hence, on systems that have more than 16 CPUs, we overlap the rlimit threshold and fail to mmap: $ perf record ls Error: failed to mmap with 1 (Operation not permitted) Just increase the max unprivileged mlock threshold by one page so that it supports well perf tools even after 16 CPUs.

2011-03-23perf_events: Fix stale ->cgrp pointer in update_cgrp_time_from_cpuctx()Stephane Eranian2-3/+11
This patch solves a stale pointer problem in update_cgrp_time_from_cpuctx(). The cpuctx->cgrp was not cleared on all possible event exit paths, including: close() perf_release() perf_release_kernel() list_del_event() This patch fixes list_del_event() to clear cpuctx->cgrp when there are no cgroup events left in the context. [ This second version makes the code compile when CONFIG_CGROUP_PERF is not enabled. We unconditionally define perf_cpu_context->cgrp. ] Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: peterz@infradead.org Cc: perfmon2-devel@lists.sf.net Cc: paulus@samba.org Cc: davem@davemloft.net LKML-Reference: <20110323150306.GA1580@quad> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2011-03-22tracing: Fix set_ftrace_filter probe function displayJiri Olsa1-2/+1
If one or more function probes (like traceon) are enabled, and there's no other function filter, the first probe func is skipped (which one depends on the position in the hash). $ echo sys_open:traceon sys_close:traceon > ./set_ftrace_filter $ cat set_ftrace_filter #### all functions enabled #### sys_close:traceon:unlimited $ The reason was, that in the case of no other function filter, the func_pos was not properly updated before calling t_hash_start.

2011-03-19perf, x86: Fix Intel fixed counters base initializationStephane Eranian1-1/+1
The following patch solves the problems introduced by Robert's commit 41bf498 and reported by Arun Sharma. This commit gets rid of the base + index notation for reading and writing PMU msrs. The problem is that for fixed counters, the new calculation for the base did not take into account the fixed counter indexes, thus all fixed counters were read/written from fixed counter 0. Although all fixed counters share the same config MSR, they each have their own counter register.

Some versions of grep don't treat '\s' properly. When building perf on such systems and using a kernel tarball the perf version is unable to be determined from the main kernel Makefile and the user is left with a version of '..'. Replacing the use of '\s' with '[[:space:]]', which should work in all grep versions, gives a usable version number.

2011-03-15VFS: Fix the nfs sillyrename regression in kernel 2.6.38Trond Myklebust1-1/+6
The new vfs locking scheme introduced in 2.6.38 breaks NFS sillyrename because the latter relies on being able to determine the parent directory of the dentry in the ->iput() callback in order to send the appropriate unlink rpc call. Looking at the code that cares about races with dput(), there doesn't seem to be anything that specifically uses d_parent as a test for whether or not there is a race: - __d_lookup_rcu(), __d_lookup() all test for d_hashed() after d_parent - shrink_dcache_for_umount() is safe since nothing else can rearrange the dentries in that super block. - have_submount(), select_parent() and d_genocide() can test for a deletion if we set the DCACHE_DISCONNECTED flag when the dentry is removed from the parent's d_subdirs list.

2011-03-15dcache.c: create helper function for duplicated functionalityLinus Torvalds1-51/+37
This creates a helper function for he "try to ascend into the parent directory" case, which was written out in triplicate before. With all the locking and subtle sequence number stuff, we really don't want to duplicate that kind of code. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2011-03-15Turn resolution of trailing symlinks iterative everywhereAl Viro1-54/+50
The last remaining place (resolution of nested symlink) converted to the loop of the same kind we have in path_lookupat() and path_openat(). Note that we still *do* have a recursion in pathname resolution; can't avoid it, really. However, it's strictly for nested symlinks now - i.e. ones in the middle of a pathname. link_path_walk() has lost the tail now - it always walks everything except the last component. do_follow_link() renamed to nested_symlink() and moved down. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2011-03-15simplify link_path_walk() tailAl Viro1-7/+1
Now that link_path_walk() is called without LOOKUP_PARENT only from do_follow_link(), we can simplify the checks in last component handling. First of all, checking if we'd arrived to a directory is not needed - the caller will check it anyway. And LOOKUP_FOLLOW is guaranteed to be there, since we only get to that place with nd->depth > 0.

2011-03-15pull handling of one pathname component into a helperAl Viro1-68/+55
new helper: walk_component(). Handles everything except symlinks; returns negative on error, 0 on success and 1 on symlinks we decided to follow. Drops out of RCU mode on such symlinks. link_path_walk() and do_last() switched to using that. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2011-03-15perf probe: Clean up probe_point_lazy_walker() return valueIngo Molnar1-1/+1
Newer compilers (gcc 4.6) complains about: return ret < 0 ?: 0; For the following reason: util/probe-finder.c: In function ‘probe_point_lazy_walker’: util/probe-finder.c:1331:18: error: the omitted middle operand in ?: will always be ‘true’, suggest explicit middle operand [-Werror=parentheses] And indeed the return value is a somewhat obscure (but correct) value of 'true', so return 'ret' instead - this is cleaner and unconfuses GCC as well.
