6581f6e35f perf report: Document '--call-graph' for optional print_limit argument
The '--call-graph' command line option can receive undocumented optional
print_limit argument. Besides, use strtoul() to parse the option since
its type is u32.

f3bda2c9a6 perf evsel: Fix uninitialized memory access to struct perf_sample
Memory in struct perf_sample is not fully initialized during parsing.
Depending on sampling data some parts may left unchanged. Zero out
struct perf_sample first to avoid access to uninitialized memory.

3e76ac78b0 perf record: Add ability to record event period
The problem is that when SAMPLE_PERIOD is not set, the kernel generates
a number of samples in proportion to an event's period. Number of these
samples may be too big and the kernel throttles all samples above a
defined limit.

E.g.: I want to trace when a process sleeps. I created a process which
sleeps for 1ms and for 4ms.  perf got 100 events in both cases.

swapper 0 [000] 1141.371830: sched_stat_sleep: comm=foo pid=1801 delay=1386750 [ns]
swapper 0 [000] 1141.369444: sched_stat_sleep: comm=foo pid=1801 delay=4499585 [ns]

In the first case a kernel want to send 4499585 events and in the second
case it wants to send 1386750 events.  perf-reports shows that process
sleeps in both places equal time.

Instead of this we can get only one sample with an attribute period. As
result we have less data transferring between kernel and user-space and
we avoid throttling of samples.

The patch "events: Don't divide events if it has field period" added a
kernel part of this functionality.

317df650c5 perf script: Implement option for system-wide profiling
The option is documented in man perf-script but was not yet implemented:

       -a
           Force system-wide collection. Scripts run without a
           <command> normally use -a by default, while scripts run
           with a <command> normally don't - this option allows the
           latter to be run in system-wide mode.

As with perf record you now can profile in system-wide mode for the
runtime of a given command, e.g.:

 # perf script -a syscall-counts sleep 2

A simple fix is needed to have the parser be able to process ops

3e7c439a7c perf test: Validate PERF_RECORD_ events and perf_sample fields
This new test will validate these new routines extracted from 'perf
record':

 - perf_evlist__config_attrs
 - perf_evlist__prepare_workload
 - perf_evlist__start_workload

In addition to several other perf_evlist methods.

It consists of starting a simple workload, setting up just one event to
monitor ("cycles") requesting that several PERF_SAMPLE_ fields be
present in all events.

It then will check that the expected PERF_RECORD_ events are produced
and will sanity check all its fields.

Some checks performed:

. PERF_SAMPLE_TIME monotonically increases.

. PERF_SAMPLE_CPU is the one requested with sched_setaffinity

. PERF_SAMPLE_TID and PERF_SAMPLE_PID matches the one we forked
  in perf_evlist__prepare_workload and that is stored in
  evlist->workload.pid

. For the events where these fields are also present in its
  pre-sample_id_all fields (e.g. event->mmap.pid), that they are what
  is expected too.

. That we get a bunch of mmaps:

  PATH/libcSUFFIX
  PATH/ldSUFFIX
  [vdso]
  PATH/sleep

Example:

  [root@emilia ~]# taskset -c 3,4 perf test -v1 perf_sample

806fb63007 perf evlist: Always do automatic allocation of pollfd and mmap structures
At first tools were required to do that, but while writing the python
bindings to simplify the API I made them auto-allocate when needed.

This just makes record, stat and top use that auto allocation,

ee29be625b perf tools: Save some loops using perf_evlist__id2evsel
Since we already ask for PERF_SAMPLE_ID and use it to quickly find the
associated evsel, add handler func + data to struct perf_evsel to avoid
using chains of if(strcmp(event_name)) and also to avoid all the linear
list searches via trace_event_find.

To demonstrate the technique convert 'perf sched' to it:

 # perf sched record sleep 5m

c8e6672035 perf tools: make -C consistent across commands (for cpu list arg)
Currently the meaning of -C varies by perf command: for perf-top,
perf-stat, perf-record it means cpu list. For perf-report it means comm
list. Then perf-annotate, perf-report and perf-script use -c for cpu
list.

Fix annotate, report and script to use -C for cpu list to be consistent
with top, stat and record. This means report needs to use -c for comm
list which does introduce a backward compatibility change.

ebf294bf4f perf tools: Simplify debugfs mountpoint handling code
We don't need to have two PATH_MAX char sized arrays holding it, just
one in util/debugfs.c will do.

Also rename debugfs_path to tracing_events_path, as it is not the path
to debugfs, that is debugfs_mountpoint. Both are now accessible.

This will allow accessing this code in the perf python binding without
having to drag in perf.c and util/parse-events.c.

The defaults for these variables are the canonical "/sys/kernel/debug"
and "/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/", removing the need for simple
tools to call debugfs_mount(NULL).

ImportError: /home/acme/git/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: hists__init

Fix it by moving the hists__init function to its only caller, evsel.c.

This way we avoid dragging in other parts of tools/perf/util/ to the
perf python binding.

A update is made to the sched:sched_switch event that adds some

A simple fix is needed to have the parser be able to process ops

f9e3d4b1a9 perf top: Fix live annotation in the --stdio interface
In the old --stdio interface the annotation is done just after one
selects a symbol, while in --tui, now the default when the required libs
are installed, we annotate all symbols with samples so that when
annotation is asked we see what happened recently on that symbol.

To achieve that the --stdio variant checks if the hist_entry being
processed is the one selected by the user via the 's' hotkey. What
happens now that we share the hist_entry abstractions with 'perf report'
is that for minimizing locking contention multiple rb_trees are used,
one for collecting the samples and other to browse/show them after
resorting it by number of samples and decay them, which is done
periodically.

So the simple test in record_precise_ip doesn't work as we move
hist_entries between those rb_trees. To fix it just check that the
underlying struct symbol associated with those hist_entries is the same.

7928631a66 perf hists: Fix recalculation of total_period when sorting entries
We were doing parts of it in hists__collapse_resort and parts of it in
hists__output_resort, leading to a bogus total_period.

Fix it by doing just the filtering operation when collapsing because
there we know that the Zoom operations adds filters just  what is in
hists->entries, not to the new batch of entries being collapsed.

And move all the nr_entries + total_period recalculation to
hists__output_resort since we will traverse all entries anyway there.

Problem introduced when developing threaded addition of new batches
of hist_entries, i.e. post v3.1.
