a38f48e300 perf session: Warn when AUX data has been lost
By default 'perf record' will postprocess the perf.data file to
determine build-ids.  When that happens, the number of lost perf events
is displayed.

Make that also happen for AUX events.

e803cf97a4 perf record: Synthesize COMM event for a command line workload
When perf creates a new child to profile, the events are enabled on
exec().  And in this case, it doesn't synthesize any event for the
child since they'll be generated during exec().  But there's an window
between the enabling and the event generation.

It used to be overcome since samples are only in kernel (so we always
have the map) and the comm is overridden by a later COMM event.
However it won't work if events are processed and displayed before the
COMM event overrides like in 'perf script'.  This leads to those early
samples (like native_write_msr_safe) not having a comm but pid (like
':15328').

So it needs to synthesize COMM event for the child explicitly before
enabling so that it can have a correct comm.  But at this time, the
comm will be "perf" since it's not exec-ed yet.

0e332f033a perf tools: Add support for cycles, weight branch_info field
cycles is a new branch_info field available on some CPUs that indicates
the time deltas between branches in the LBR.

Add a sort key and output code for the cycles to allow to display the
basic block cycles individually in perf report.

We also pass in the cycles for weight when LBRs are processed, which
allows to get global and local weight, to get an estimate of the total
cost.

And also print the cycles information for perf report -D.  I also added
printing for the previously missing LBR flags (mispredict etc.)

0286039f77 perf tools: Add new PERF_RECORD_SWITCH event
Support processing of PERF_RECORD_SWITCH events and
PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE events. There is a single
tools callback for them both so that the tool must
check the event type before using the extra members
in PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE.

There is still no way to select the events, though.
That is added in a subsequest patch.

930e6fcd2b perf tools: Add time out to force stop proc map processing
System wide sampling like 'perf top' or 'perf record -a' read all
threads /proc/xxx/maps before sampling. If there are any threads which
generating a keeping growing huge maps, perf will do infinite loop
during synthesizing. Nothing will be sampled.

This patch fixes this issue by adding per-thread timeout to force stop
this kind of endless proc map processing.

PERF_RECORD_MISC_PROC_MAP_PARSE_TIME_OUT is introduced to indicate that
the mmap record are truncated by time out. User will get warning
notification when truncated mmap records are detected.

c4937a91ea perf tools: handle PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES
This patch modifies the perf tool to handle the new RECORD type,
PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES.

The number of lost-sample events is stored in
.nr_events[PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES]. The exact number of samples
which the kernel dropped is stored in total_lost_samples.

When the percentage of dropped samples is greater than 5%, a warning
is printed.

Here are some examples:

Eg 1, Recording different frequently-occurring events is safe with the
      patch. Only a very low drop rate is associated with such actions.

$ perf record -e '{cycles:p,instructions:p}' -c 20003 --no-time ~/tchain ~/tchain

$ perf report -D | tail
          SAMPLE events:     120243
           MMAP2 events:          5
    LOST_SAMPLES events:         24
  FINISHED_ROUND events:         15

           TOTAL events:      59348
          SAMPLE events:      59348
instructions:p stats:
           TOTAL events:      60895
          SAMPLE events:      60895

$ perf report --stdio --group
 # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
 #
 #
 # Total Lost Samples: 24
 #
 # Samples: 120K of event 'anon group { cycles:p, instructions:p }'

Eg 2, Recording the same thing multiple times can lead to high drop

b91fc39f4a perf machine: Protect the machine->threads with a rwlock
In addition to using refcounts for the struct thread lifetime
management, we need to protect access to machine->threads from
concurrent access.

That happens in 'perf top', where a thread processes events, inserting
and deleting entries from that rb_tree while another thread decays
hist_entries, that end up dropping references and ultimately deleting
threads from the rb_tree and releasing its resources when no further
hist_entry (or other data structures, like in 'perf sched') references
it.

So the rule is the same for refcounts + protected trees in the kernel,
get the tree lock, find object, bump the refcount, drop the tree lock,
return, use object, drop the refcount if no more use of it is needed,
keep it if storing it in some other data structure, drop when releasing
that data structure.

I.e. pair "t = machine__find(new)_thread()" with a "thread__put(t)", and
"perf_event__preprocess_sample(&al)" with "addr_location__put(&al)".

The addr_location__put() one is because as we return references to
several data structures, we may end up adding more reference counting
for the other data structures and then we'll drop it at
addr_location__put() time.

4a96f7a02e perf tools: Add support for PERF_RECORD_AUX
Add support for the PERF_RECORD_AUX event type.

PERF_RECORD_AUX is a new kernel event that records when new data lands
in the AUX buffer. Currently it is assumed that AUX data follows the
same ring buffer conventions used by the perf events buffer, and
consequently the AUX event is not processed during recording.

It is processed during session processing so that the information in the
'flags' member is made available.

The format of PERF_RECORD_AUX is outlined in the linux/perf_events.h
header file. The 'flags' are also enumerated.

Intel PT and Intel BTS use the flag named PERF_AUX_FLAG_TRUNCATED to
determine if data has been lost because the buffer became full as perf
was not able to empty it fast enough.

400ea6d327 perf script: Add field option 'flags' to print sample flags
Instruction tracing will typically have access to information about the
instruction being executed for a particular ip sample.  Some of that
information will be available in the 'flags' member of struct
perf_sample.

With the addition of transactions events synthesis to Instruction
Tracing options, there is a need to be able easily to see the flags
because they show whether the ip is at the start, commit or abort of a
tranasaction.

Consequently add an option to display the flags.

The flags are "bcrosyiABEx" which stand for branch, call, return,
conditional, system, asynchronous, interrupt, transaction abort, trace
begin, trace end, and in transaction, respectively.

Example using Intel PT:

perf script -fip,time,event,sym,addr,flags

a16ac0233e perf tools: Add user events for AUX area tracing
Add two user events for AUX area tracing.

PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO contains metadata, consisting primarily the
type of the AUX area tracing data plus some amount of
architecture-specific information.  There should be only one
PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO event.

PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE identifies AUX area tracing data copied from the

9870d78095 perf ordered_samples: Remove references to perf_{evlist,tool} and machines
As these can be obtained from the ordered_events pointer, via
container_of, reducing the cross section of ordered_samples.

These were added to ordered_samples in:

 commit b7b61cbebd
 Author: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
 Date:   Tue Mar 3 11:58:45 2015 -0300

    perf ordered_events: Shorten function signatures

    By keeping pointers to machines, evlist and tool in ordered_events.

But that was more a transitional patch while moving stuff out from
perf_session.c to ordered_events.c and possibly not even needed by then,
as we could use the container_of() method and instead of having the
nr_unordered_samples stats in events_stats, we can have it in
ordered_samples.

f61ff6c06d perf session: Do not fail on processing out of order event
Linus reported perf report command being interrupted due to processing
of 'out of order' event, with following error:

  Timestamp below last timeslice flush
  0x5733a8 [0x28]: failed to process type: 3

I could reproduce the issue and in my case it was caused by one CPU
(mmap) being behind during record and userspace mmap reader seeing the
data after other CPUs data were already stored.

This is expected under some circumstances because we need to limit the
number of events that we queue for reordering when we receive a
PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND or when we force flush due to memory
pressure.

3c659eedad perf tools: Add id index
Add an index of the event identifiers, in preparation for Intel PT.

The event id (also called the sample id) is a unique number
allocated by the kernel to the event created by perf_event_open().  Events
can include the event id by having a sample type including PERF_SAMPLE_ID or
PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER.

Currently the main use of the event id is to match an event back to the
evsel to which it belongs i.e. perf_evlist__id2evsel()

The purpose of this patch is to make it possible to match an event back to
the mmap from which it was read.  The reason that is useful is because the
mmap represents a time-ordered context (either for a cpu or for a thread).
Intel PT decodes trace information on that basis.  In full-trace mode, that
information can be recorded when the Intel PT trace is read, but in
sample-mode the Intel PT trace data is embedded in a sample and it is in
that case that the "id index" is needed.

So the mmaps are numbered (idx) and the cpu and tid recorded against the id
by perf_evlist__set_sid_idx() which is called by perf_evlist__mmap_per_evsel().

That information is recorded on the perf.data file in the new "id index".
idx, cpu and tid are added to struct perf_sample_id (which is the node of
evlist's hash table to match ids to evsels).  The information can be
retrieved using perf_evlist__id2sid().  Note however this all depends on
having a sample type including PERF_SAMPLE_ID or PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER,
otherwise ids are not recorded.

The "id index" is a synthesized event record which will be created when
Intel PT sampling is used by calling perf_event__synthesize_id_index().

a65cb4b9f8 perf evlist: Fix perf_evlist__mmap_read event overflow
The perf_evlist__mmap_read used 'union perf_event' as a placeholder for
event crossing the mmap boundary.

This is ok for sample shorter than ~PATH_MAX. However we could grow up
to the maximum sample size which is 16 bits max.

I hit this overflow issue when using 'perf top -G dwarf' which produces
sample with the size around 8192 bytes.  We could configure any valid
sample size here using: '-G dwarf,size'.

Using array with sample max size instead for the event placeholder. Also
adding another safe check for the dynamic size of the user stack.

TODO: The 'struct perf_mmap' is quite big now, maybe we could use some
lazy allocation for event_copy size.

dd96c46b5c perf tools: Adding throttle event data struct support
Moving 'struct throttle_event' out of python code and making it global
as any other event.

There's no usage of throttling events in any perf commands so far
(besides python support), but we'll need this event data backup for
upcoming test.

5c5e854bc7 perf tools: Add attr->mmap2 support
This patch adds support for the new PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 record type
exposed by the kernel. This is an extended PERF_RECORD_MMAP record.

It adds for each file-backed mapping the device major, minor number and
the inode number and generation.

This triplet uniquely identifies the source of a file-backed mapping. It
can be used to detect identical virtual mappings between processes, for
instance.

The patch will prefer MMAP2 over MMAP.

f62d3f0f45 perf event: No need to create a thread when handling PERF_RECORD_EXIT
When we were processing a PERF_RECORD_EXIT event we first used
machine__findnew_thread for both the thread exiting and for its parent,
only to use just the thread struct associated with the one exiting, and
to just delete it.

If it existed, i.e. not created at this very moment in
machine__findnew_thread, it will be moved to the machine->dead_threads
linked list, because we may have hist_entries pointing to it, but if it
was created just do be deleted, it will just sit there with no
references at all.

Use the new machine__find_thread() method so that if it is not there, we
don't create it.

As a bonus the parent thread will also not be created at this point.

Create process_fork() and process_exit() helpers to use this and make
the builtins use it instead of the generic process_task(), ditched by
this patch.

d20deb64e0 perf tools: Pass tool context in the the perf_event_ops functions
So that we don't need to have that many globals.

Next steps will remove the 'session' pointer, that in most cases is
not needed.

Then we can rename perf_event_ops to 'perf_tool' that better describes
this class hierarchy.

936be50306 perf tool: Fix endianness handling of u32 data in samples
Currently, analyzing PPC data files on x86 the cpu field is always 0 and
the tid and pid are backwards. For example, analyzing a PPC file on PPC
the pid/tid fields show:

        rsyslogd  1210/1212

and analyzing the same PPC file using an x86 perf binary shows:

        rsyslogd  1212/1210

The problem is that the swap_op method for samples is
perf_event__all64_swap which assumes all elements in the sample_data
struct are u64s. cpu, tid and pid are u32s and need to be handled
individually. Given that the swap is done before the sample is parsed,
the simplest solution is to undo the 64-bit swap of those elements when
the sample is parsed and do the proper swap.

The RAW data field is generic and perf cannot have programmatic knowledge
of how to treat that data. Instead a warning is given to the user.

Thanks to Anton Blanchard for providing a data file for a mult-CPU
PPC system so I could verify the fix for the CPU fields.

v3 -> v4:
- fixed use of WARN_ONCE

v2 -> v3:
- used WARN_ONCE for message regarding raw data
- removed struct wrapper around union
- fixed whitespace issues

v1 -> v2:
- added a union for undoing the byte-swap on u64 and redoing swap on
  u32's to address compiler errors (see git commit 65014ab3)

56722381b8 perf evlist: Don't die if sample_{id_all|type} is invalid
Fixes two more cases where the python binding would not load:

. Not finding die(), which it shouldn't anyway, not good to just stop the
  world because some particular perf.data file is invalid, just propagate
  the error to the caller.

. Not finding perf_sample_size: fix it by moving it from event.c to evsel,
  where it belongs, as most cases are moving to operate on an evsel object.o

One of the fixed problems:

[root@emilia ~]# python
>>> import perf
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: /home/acme/git/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: perf_sample_size

401b8e1317 perf tools: Fix thread_map event synthesizing in top and record
Jeff Moyer reported these messages:

  Warning:  ... trying to fall back to cpu-clock-ticks

couldn't open /proc/-1/status
couldn't open /proc/-1/maps
[ls output]
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.008 MB perf.data (~363 samples) ]

That lead me and David Ahern to see that something was fishy on the thread
synthesizing routines, at least for the case where the workload is started
from 'perf record', as -1 is the default for target_tid in 'perf record --tid'
parameter, so somehow we were trying to synthesize the PERF_RECORD_MMAP and
PERF_RECORD_COMM events for the thread -1, a bug.

So I investigated this and noticed that when we introduced support for
recording a process and its threads using --pid some bugs were introduced and
that the way to fix it was to instead of passing the target_tid to the event
synthesizing routines we should better pass the thread_map that has the list of
threads for a --pid or just the single thread for a --tid.

Checked in the following ways:

On a 8-way machine run cyclictest:

[root@emilia ~]# perf record cyclictest -a -t -n -p99 -i100 -d50

[root@emilia ~]#

This will create one extra thread per CPU:

[root@emilia ~]# tuna -t cyclictest -CP
                      thread       ctxt_switches
    pid SCHED_ rtpri affinity voluntary nonvoluntary             cmd
 28825   OTHER     0     0xff      2169          671      cyclictest
  28832   FIFO    93        6     52338            1      cyclictest
  28833   FIFO    92        7     46524            1      cyclictest
  28826   FIFO    99        0    209360            1      cyclictest
  28827   FIFO    98        1    139577            1      cyclictest
  28828   FIFO    97        2    104686            0      cyclictest
  28829   FIFO    96        3     83751            1      cyclictest
  28830   FIFO    95        4     69794            1      cyclictest
  28831   FIFO    94        5     59825            1      cyclictest
[root@emilia ~]#

So we should expect only samples for the above 9 threads when using the
--dump-raw-trace|-D perf report switch to look at the column with the tid:

[root@emilia ~]# perf report -D | grep RECORD_SAMPLE | cut -d/ -f2 | cut -d: -f1 | sort | uniq -c
    629 28825
    110 28826
    491 28827
    308 28828
    198 28829
    621 28830
    225 28831
    203 28832
     89 28833
[root@emilia ~]#

So for workloads started by 'perf record' seems to work, now for existing workloads,
just run cyclictest first, without 'perf record':

[root@emilia ~]# tuna -t cyclictest -CP
                      thread       ctxt_switches
    pid SCHED_ rtpri affinity voluntary nonvoluntary             cmd
 28859   OTHER     0     0xff       594          200      cyclictest
  28864   FIFO    95        4     16587            1      cyclictest
  28865   FIFO    94        5     14219            1      cyclictest
  28866   FIFO    93        6     12443            0      cyclictest
  28867   FIFO    92        7     11062            1      cyclictest
  28860   FIFO    99        0     49779            1      cyclictest
  28861   FIFO    98        1     33190            1      cyclictest
  28862   FIFO    97        2     24895            1      cyclictest
  28863   FIFO    96        3     19918            1      cyclictest
[root@emilia ~]#

and then later did:

[root@emilia ~]# perf record --pid 28859 sleep 3
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.027 MB perf.data (~1195 samples) ]
[root@emilia ~]#

To collect 3 seconds worth of samples for pid 28859 and its children:

[root@emilia ~]# perf report -D | grep RECORD_SAMPLE | cut -d/ -f2 | cut -d: -f1 | sort | uniq -c
     15 28859
     33 28860
     19 28861
     13 28862
     13 28863
     10 28864
     11 28865
      9 28866
    255 28867
[root@emilia ~]#

Works, last thing is to check if looking at just one of those threads also works:

[root@emilia ~]# perf record --tid 28866 sleep 3
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.006 MB perf.data (~242 samples) ]
[root@emilia ~]# perf report -D | grep RECORD_SAMPLE | cut -d/ -f2 | cut -d: -f1 | sort | uniq -c
      3 28866
[root@emilia ~]#

Works too.

First column is the cpu and the second the timestamp.

That way we can investigate problems in the event stream.

If the new perf binary is run on an older kernel, it will disable this feature
automatically.

640c03ce83 perf session: Parse sample earlier
At perf_session__process_event, so that we reduce the number of lines in eache
tool sample processing routine that now receives a sample_data pointer already
parsed.

This will also be useful in the next patch, where we'll allow sample the
identity fields in MMAP, FORK, EXIT, etc, when it will be possible to see (cpu,
timestamp) just after before every event.

Also validate callchains in perf_session__process_event, i.e. as early as
possible, and keep a counter of the number of events discarded due to invalid
callchains, warning the user about it if it happens.

There is an assumption that was kept that all events have the same sample_type,
that will be dealt with in the future, when this preexisting limitation will be
removed.

the functions that are called from event__process are defined in util/event.c.
Though its defined in builtin-top.c, it could be reused for perf probe for
uprobes. Hence moving it to util/event.c and exporting the function.

1c02c4d2e9 perf hist: Introduce hists class and move lots of methods to it
In cbbc79a we introduced support for multiple events by introducing a
new "event_stat_id" struct and then made several perf_session methods
receive a point to it instead of a pointer to perf_session, and kept the
event_stats and hists rb_tree in perf_session.

While working on the new newt based browser, I realised that it would be
better to introduce a new class, "hists" (short for "histograms"),
renaming the "event_stat_id" struct and the perf_session methods that
were really "hists" methods, as they manipulate only struct hists
members, not touching anything in the other perf_session members.

Other optimizations, such as calculating the maximum lenght of a symbol
name present in an hists instance will be possible as we add them,
avoiding a re-traversal just for finding that information.

The rationale for the name "hists" to replace "event_stat_id" is that we
may have multiple sets of hists for the same event_stat id, as, for
instance, the 'perf diff' tool has, so event stat id is not what
characterizes what this struct and the functions that manipulate it do.

The tracing data is pretty large, and this patch doesn't attempt

itself doesn't actually contain the tracing data, rather it
arranges for the event processing code to skip over it after
it's read, using the skip return value added to the event
processing loop in a previous patch.

8dc58101f2 perf: Add pipe-specific header read/write and event processing code
This patch makes several changes to allow the perf event stream
to be sent and received over a pipe:

- adds pipe-specific versions of the header read/write code

- adds pipe-specific version of the event processing code

- adds a range of event types to be used for header or other
  pseudo events, above the range used by the kernel

- checks the return value of event handlers, which they can use
  to skip over large events during event processing rather than actually
  reading them into event objects.

- unifies the multiple do_read() functions and updates its
  users.

Note that none of these changes affect the existing perf data
file format or processing - this code only comes into play if
perf output is sent to stdout (or is read from stdin).

b7cece7678 perf tools: Encode kernel module mappings in perf.data
We were always looking at the running machine /proc/modules,
even when processing a perf.data file, which only makes sense
when we're doing 'perf record' and 'perf report' on the same
machine, and in close sucession, or if we don't use modules at
all, right Peter? ;-)

Now, at 'perf record' time we read /proc/modules, find the long
path for modules, and put them as PERF_MMAP events, just like we
did to encode the reloc reference symbol for vmlinux. Talking
about that now it is encoded in .pgoff, so that we can use
.{start,len} to store the address boundaries for the kernel so
that when we reconstruct the kmaps tree we can do lookups right
away, without having to fixup the end of the kernel maps like we
did in the past (and now only in perf record).

One more step in the 'perf archive' direction when we'll finally
be able to collect data in one machine and analyse in another.

56b03f3c4d perf tools: Handle relocatable kernels
DSOs don't have this problem because the kernel emits a
PERF_MMAP for each new executable mapping it performs on
monitored threads.

To fix the kernel case we simulate the same behaviour, by having
'perf record' to synthesize a PERF_MMAP for the kernel, encoded
like this:

[root@doppio ~]# perf record -a -f sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.344 MB perf.data (~15038 samples) ]
[root@doppio ~]# perf report -D | head -10

0xd0 [0x40]: event: 1
.
. ... raw event: size 64 bytes
.  0000:  01 00 00 00 00 00 40 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ......@........
.  0010:  00 00 00 81 ff ff ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ...............
.  0020:  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 5b 6b 65 72 6e 65 6c 2e ........  [kernel
.  0030:  6b 61 6c 6c 73 79 6d 73 2e 5f 74 65 78 74 5d 00  kallsyms._text]
.  0xd0
[0x40]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP 0/0: [0xffffffff81000000((nil)) @ (nil)]: [kernel.kallsyms._text]

I.e. we identify such event as having:

 .pid      = 0
 .filename = [kernel.kallsyms.REFNAME]
 .start    = REFNAME addr in /proc/kallsyms at 'perf record' time

and use now a hardcoded value of '.text' for REFNAME.

Then, later, in 'perf report', if there are any kernel hits and
thus we need to resolve kernel symbols, we search for REFNAME
and if its address changed, relocation happened and we thus must
change the kernel mapping routines to one that uses .pgoff as
the relocation to apply.

This way we use the same mechanism used for the other DSOs and
don't have to do a two pass in all the kernel symbols.

4aa6563641 perf session: Move kmaps to perf_session
There is still some more work to do to disentangle map creation
from DSO loading, but this happens only for the kernel, and for
the early adopters of perf diff, where this disentanglement
matters most, we'll be testing different kernels, so no problem
here.

Further clarification: right now we create the kernel maps for
the various modules and discontiguous kernel text maps when
loading the DSO, we should do it as a two step process, first
creating the maps, for multiple mappings with the same DSO
store, then doing the dso load just once, for the first hit on
one of the maps sharing this DSO backing store.

79406cd789 perf symbols: Allow lookups by symbol name too
Configurable via symbol_conf.sort_by_name, so that the cost of an
extra rb_node on all 'struct symbol' instances is not paid by tools
that only want to decode addresses.

How to use it:

	symbol_conf.sort_by_name = true;
	symbol_init(&symbol_conf);

	struct map *map = map_groups__find_by_name(kmaps, MAP__VARIABLE, "[kernel.kallsyms]");

	if (map == NULL) {
		pr_err("couldn't find map!\n");
		kernel_maps__fprintf(stdout);
	} else {
		struct symbol *sym = map__find_symbol_by_name(map, sym_filter, NULL);
		if (sym == NULL)
			pr_err("couldn't find symbol %s!\n", sym_filter);
		else
			pr_info("symbol %s: %#Lx-%#Lx \n", sym_filter, sym->start, sym->end);
	}

Looking over the vmlinux/kallsyms is common enough that I'll add a
variable to the upcoming struct perf_session to avoid the need to
use map_groups__find_by_name to get the main vmlinux/kallsyms map.

The above example looks on the 'variable' symtab, but it is just
like that for the functions one.

Also the sort operation is done when we first use
map__find_symbol_by_name, in a lazy way.

f1dfa0b1c1 perf symbols: Add support for 'variable' symtabs
Example:

{
	u64 addr = strtoull(sym_filter, NULL, 16);
	struct map *map = map_groups__find(kmaps, MAP__VARIABLE, addr);

	if (map == NULL)
		pr_err("couldn't find map!\n");
	else {
		struct symbol *sym = map__find_symbol(map, addr, NULL);
		if (sym == NULL)
			pr_err("couldn't find addr!\n");
		else
			pr_info("addr %#Lx is in %s global var\n", addr, sym->name);
	}
	exit(0);
}

Added just after symbol__init() call in 'perf top', then:

{
        u64 addr = strtoull(sym_filter, NULL, 16);
        struct map *map = map_groups__find(kmaps, MAP__VARIABLE, addr);

        if (map == NULL)
                pr_err("couldn't find map!\n");
        else {
                struct symbol *sym = map__find_symbol(map, addr, NULL);
                if (sym == NULL)
                        pr_err("couldn't find addr!\n");
                else
                        pr_info("addr %#Lx is in %s global var\n", addr, sym->name);
        }
        exit(0);
}

[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf top -s ffffffff81782ce0 --vmlinux OFF
The file OFF cannot be used, trying to use /proc/kallsyms...addr 0xffffffff81782ce0 is in sched_domains_mutex global var
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf top -s ffffffff818235bc --vmlinux OFF
The file OFF cannot be used, trying to use /proc/kallsyms...addr 0xffffffff818235bc is in sched_clock_stable global var
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]#

So it works with both /proc/kallsyms and with ELF symtabs, either
the one on the vmlinux explicitely passed via --vmlinux or in one
in the vmlinux_path that matches the buildid for the running kernel
or the one found in the buildid header section in a perf.data file.

180f95e29a perf: Make common SAMPLE_EVENT parser
Currently, sample event data is parsed for each commands, and it
is assuming that the data is not including other data. (E.g.
timechart, trace, etc. can't parse the event if it has
PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN)

So, even if we record the superset data for multiple commands at
a time, commands can't parse. etc.

To fix it, this makes common sample event parser, and use it to
parse sample event correctly. (PERF_SAMPLE_READ is unsupported
for now though, it seems to be not using.)

1ed091c45a perf tools: Consolidate symbol resolving across all tools
Now we have a very high level routine for simple tools to
process IP sample events:

	int event__preprocess_sample(const event_t *self,
				     struct addr_location *al,
				     symbol_filter_t filter)

It receives the event itself and will insert new threads in the
global threads list and resolve the map and symbol, filling all
this info into the new addr_location struct, so that tools like
annotate and report can further process the event by creating
hist_entries in their specific way (with or without callgraphs,
etc).

It in turn uses the new next layer function:

	void thread__find_addr_location(struct thread *self, u8 cpumode,
					enum map_type type, u64 addr,
					struct addr_location *al,
					symbol_filter_t filter)

This one will, given a thread (userspace or the kernel kthread
one), will find the given type (MAP__FUNCTION now, MAP__VARIABLE
too in the near future) at the given cpumode, taking vdsos into
account (userspace hit, but kernel symbol) and will fill all
these details in the addr_location given.

Tools that need a more compact API for plain function
resolution, like 'kmem', can use this other one:

	struct symbol *thread__find_function(struct thread *self, u64 addr,
					     symbol_filter_t filter)

So, to resolve a kernel symbol, that is all the 'kmem' tool
needs, its just a matter of calling:

	sym = thread__find_function(kthread, addr, NULL);

The 'filter' parameter is needed because we do lazy
parsing/loading of ELF symtabs or /proc/kallsyms.

With this we remove more code duplication all around, which is
always good, huh? :-)

62daacb51a perf tools: Reorganize event processing routines, lotsa dups killed
While implementing event__preprocess_sample, that will do all of
the symbol lookup in one convenient function, I noticed that
util/process_event.[ch] were not being used at all, then started
looking if there were other functions that could be shared
and...

All those functions really don't need to receive offset + head,
the only thing they did was common to all of them, so do it at
one place instead.

Stats about number of each type of event processed now is done
in a central place.
