mainlining shenanigans
'perf script' fails to report hardware cache events (PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE) where as 'perf report' shows the samples. Fix it. Ex, # perf record -e L1-dcache-loads ./a.out [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.008 MB perf.data (11 samples)] Before patch: # perf script | wc -l 0 After patch: # perf script | wc -l 11 Committer testing: [root@jouet ~]# perf script | head -30 | tail Timer 9803 [2] 8.963330: 1554 L1-dcache-loads: 7ffef89baae4 __vdso_clock_gettime+0xf4 ([vdso]) swapper 0 [2] 8.963343: 5626 L1-dcache-loads: ffffffffa66f4f6b cpuidle_not_av+0xb (/lib/modules/4.17.0-rc5/build/vmlinux) firefox 4853 [2] 8.964070: 18935 L1-dcache-loads: 7f0b9a00dc30 xcb_poll_for_event+0x0 (/usr/lib64/libxcb.so.1.1.0) Softwar~cTh 4928 [2] 8.964548: 15928 L1-dcache-loads: ffffffffa60d795c update_curr+0x10c (/lib/modules/4.17.0-rc5/build/vmlinux) firefox 4853 [2] 8.964675: 14978 L1-dcache-loads: ffffffffa6897018 mutex_unlock+0x18 (/lib/modules/4.17.0-rc5/build/vmlinux) gnome-shell 2026 [3] 8.964693: 50670 L1-dcache-loads: 7fa08854de6d g_source_iter_next+0x6d (/usr/lib64/libglib-2.0.so.0.5400.3) Compositor 4929 [1] 8.964784: 71772 L1-dcache-loads: 7f0b936bf078 [unknown] (/usr/lib64/firefox/libxul.so) Xwayland 2096 [2] 8.964919: 16799 L1-dcache-loads: 7f68ce2fcb8a glXGetCurrentContext+0x1a (/usr/lib64/libGLX.so.0.0.0) gnome-shell 2026 [3] 8.964997: 50670 L1-dcache-loads: 7fa08854de6d g_source_iter_next+0x6d (/usr/lib64/libglib-2.0.so.0.5400.3) [root@jouet ~]# Signed-off-by: Seeteena Thoufeek <s1seetee@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1528455748-20087-1-git-send-email-s1seetee@linux.vnet.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> |

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
