'perf record' will call kallsyms__parse 4 times during startup and
process megabytes of data. This changes kallsyms__parse to use the io
library rather than fgets to improve performance of the user code by
over 8%.
Before:
Running 'internals/kallsyms-parse' benchmark:
Average kallsyms__parse took: 103.988 ms (+- 0.203 ms)
After:
Running 'internals/kallsyms-parse' benchmark:
Average kallsyms__parse took: 95.571 ms (+- 0.006 ms)
For a workload like:
$ perf record /bin/true
Run under 'perf record -e cycles:u -g' the time goes from:
Before
30.10% 1.67% perf perf [.] kallsyms__parse
After
25.55% 20.04% perf perf [.] kallsyms__parse
So a little under 5% of the start-up time is removed. A lot of what
remains is on the kernel side, but caching kallsyms within perf would at
least impact memory footprint.
Committer notes:
The internal/kallsyms-parse bench is run using:
[root@five ~]# perf bench internals kallsyms-parse
# Running 'internals/kallsyms-parse' benchmark:
Average kallsyms__parse took: 80.381 ms (+- 0.115 ms)
[root@five ~]#
And this pre-existing test uses these routines to parse kallsyms and
then compare with the info obtained from the matching ELF symtab:
[root@five ~]# perf test vmlinux
1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms : Ok
[root@five ~]#
Also we can't remove hex2u64() in this patch as this breaks the build:
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/build/perf/perf-in.o: in function `modules__parse':
/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/util/symbol.c:607: undefined reference to `hex2u64'
/usr/bin/ld: /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/util/symbol.c:607: undefined reference to `hex2u64'
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/build/perf/perf-in.o: in function `dso__load_perf_map':
/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/util/symbol.c:1477: undefined reference to `hex2u64'
/usr/bin/ld: /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/util/symbol.c:1483: undefined reference to `hex2u64'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Leave it there, move it in the next patch.
