If the user doesn't pass a symbol name to annotate, it will annotate all the symbols that have hits, in order, just like 'perf report -s comm,dso,symbol'. This is a natural followup patch to the one that uses output_hists to find the symbols with hits. The common case is to annotate the first few entries at the top of a perf report, so lets type less characters. Signed-off-by:

We have this sym_priv_size mechanism for attaching private areas to struct symbol entries but annotate wasn't using it, adding private areas to struct symbol in addition to a ->priv pointer. Scrap all that and use the sym_priv_size mechanism. Signed-off-by:

We need this because we get section relative addresses when reading the symtabs, but when a tool like 'perf annotate' needs to match these address to what 'objdump -dS' produces we need the address + section back again. So in annotate now we look at the 'struct hist_entry' instances (that weren't really being used) so that we iterate only over the symbols that had some hit and get the map where that particular hit happened so that we can get the right address to match with annotate. Verified that at least: perf annotate mmap_read_counter # Uses the ~/bin/perf binary perf annotate --vmlinux /home/acme/git/build/perf/vmlinux intel_pmu_enable_all on a 'perf record perf top' session seems to work.

During the Kernel Summit demo of perf/ftrace/timechart, there was a feature request to have a process filter for timechart so that you can zoom into one or a few processes that you are really interested in. This patch adds basic support for this feature, the -p (--process) option now can select a PID or a process name to be shown. Multiple -p options are allowed, and the combined set will be included in the output. Signed-off-by:

[from KS feedback] Currently, scheduler delays are shown in a mostly transparent, light yellow color. This color is rather hard to see on several screens, especially projectors. This patch changes the color of the scheduler delays to be a much more "hard" yellow that survived the kernel summit projector. Reported-by:

The timechart wakeup arrows currently show no process information when the waker/wakee are processes that are not actually chosen to be shown on the timechart. This patch fixes this oversight, by looking through all processes (after giving preference to visible processes) as well as falling back to just showing the PID if no name for the process can be resolved.

Use DECLARE_BITMAP instead of an open coded array for our bitmap of featured sections. This makes the array an unsigned long instead of a u64 but since we use a 256 bits bitmap, the array size shouldn't vary between different boxes. Signed-off-by:

This provides a new set of bitmasked headers. A new field is added in the perf headers that implements a bitmap storing optional features present in the perf.data file. The layout can be pictured like this: (Usual perf headers)(Features bitmap)[Feature 0][Feature n][Feature 255] If the bit n is set, then the feature n is used in this file. They are all set in order. This brings a backward and forward compatibility. The trace_info section has moved into such optional features, this is the first and only one for now. This is backward compatible with the .32 file version although it doesn't support the previous separate trace.info file. And finally it doesn't support the current interim development version.

In each case, if the NULL test on thread is needed, then the dereference should be after the NULL test. A simplified version of the semantic match that detects this problem is as follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/): // <smpl> @match exists@ expression x, E; identifier fld; @@ * x->fld ... when != \(x = E\|&x\) * x == NULL // </smpl> Signed-off-by:

Now that we can filter based on fields via perf record, people will start using filter expressions and will expect them to be obvious. The primary way to see which fields are available is by looking at the trace output, such as: gcc-18676 [000] 343.011728: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer cc1-18677 [000] 343.012727: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer cc1-18677 [000] 343.032692: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer cc1-18677 [000] 343.033690: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer cc1-18677 [000] 343.034687: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer cc1-18677 [000] 343.035686: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer cc1-18677 [000] 343.036684: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer While 'irq==0' filters work, the 'handler==<x>' filter expression does not work: $ perf record -R -f -a -e irq:irq_handler_entry --filter handler=timer sleep 1 Error: failed to set filter with 22 (Invalid argument) The problem is that while an 'irq' field exists and is recognized as a filter field - 'handler' does not exist - its name is 'name' in the output. To solve this, we need to synchronize the printout and the field names, wherever possible. In cases where the printout prints a non-field, we enclose that information in square brackets, such as: perf-1380 [013] 724.903505: softirq_exit: vec=9 [action=RCU] perf-1380 [013] 724.904482: softirq_exit: vec=1 [action=TIMER] This way users can use filter expressions more intuitively: all fields that show up as 'primary' (non-bracketed) information is filterable. This patch harmonizes the field names for all irq, bkl, power, sched and timer events. We might in fact think about dropping the print format bit of generic tracepoints altogether, and just print the fields that are being recorded.
