      tools lib api: Adopt fdarray class from perf's evlist · 1b85337d
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      The extensible file description array that grew in the perf_evlist class
      can be useful for other tools, as it is not something that only evlists
      need, so move it to tools/lib/api/fd to ease sharing it.
      
      v2: Don't use {} like in:
      
       libapi_dirs:
      	$(QUIET_MKDIR)mkdir -p $(OUTPUT){fs,fd}/
      
      in Makefiles, as it will not work in some systems, as in ubuntu13.10.
      
      v3: Add fd/*.[ch] to LIBAPIKFS_SOURCES (Fix from Jiri Olsa)
      
      v4: Leave the fcntl(fd, O_NONBLOCK) in the evlist layer, remains to
          be checked if it is really needed there, but has no place in the
          fdarray class (Fix from Jiri Olsa)
      
      v5: Remove evlist details from fdarray grow/filter tests. Improve it a
          bit doing more tests about expected internal state.

      perf evlist: Introduce poll method for common code idiom · f66a889d
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Since we have access two evlist members in all these poll calls, provide
      a helper.
      
      This will also help to make the patch introducing the pollfd class more
      clear, as the evlist specific uses will be hiden away
      perf_evlist__poll().

      perf kvm stat live: Use perf_evlist__add_pollfd() instead of local equivalent · 0a04c9e0
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Since we can add file descriptors to the evlist pollfd and it will
      autogrow, no need to copy all events to a local pollfd array, just add
      the timer and stdin file descriptors.

      perf evlist: Allow growing pollfd on add method · ad6765dd
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      This way we will be able to add more file descriptors to be polled,
      like stdin or some timer fd.
      
      At this point we might as well yank the pollfd class from evlist so that
      it can be used in other places.

      perf evlist: We need to poll all event file descriptors · 033fa713
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Because we want to notice when they get POLLHUP'ed, so that we can
      figure out when all threads exited in a workload being monitored.
      
      We can't just monitor the fds that were mmaped, we need to notice when
      all the fds that were PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT'ed too, because the mmap
      stays even after the fd that originally was used to do the mmap call
      went away, its only when all the set-output fds for a mmap are gone that
      the mmap is.

      perf evlist: Monitor POLLERR and POLLHUP events too · 8179672c
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      We want to know when the fd went away, like when a monitored thread
      exits.
      
      If we do not monitor such events, then the tools will wait forever on
      events from a vanished thread, like when running:
      
       $ sleep 5s &
       $ perf record -p `pidof sleep`
      
      This builds upon the kernel patch by Jiri Olsa that actually makes a
      poll on those file descriptors to return POLLHUP.
      
      It is also needed to change the tools to use
      perf_evlist__filter_pollfd() to check if there are remainings fds to
      monitor or if all are gone, in which case they will exit the
      poll/mmap/read loop.

      perf evlist: Introduce perf_evlist__filter_pollfd method · 1ddec7f0
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      To remove all entries in evlist->pollfd[] that have revents matching at
      least one of the bits in the specified mask.
      
      It'll adjust evlist->nr_fds to the number of unfiltered fds and will
      return this value, as a convenience and to avoid requiring direct access
      to internal state of perf_evlist objects.
      
      This will be used after polling the evlist fds so that we remove fds
      that were closed by the kernel.
