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. Signed-off-by: -

Add --line option to support showing probable source-code lines. perf probe --line SRC:LN[-LN|+NUM] or perf probe --line FUNC[:LN[-LN|+NUM]] This option shows source-code with line number if the line can be probed. Lines without line number (and blue color) means that the line can not be probed, because debuginfo doesn't have the information of those lines. The argument specifies the range of lines, "source.c:100-120" shows lines between 100th to l20th in source.c file. And "func:10+20" shows 20 lines from 10th line of func function. e.g. # ./perf probe --line kernel/sched.c:1080 <kernel/sched.c:1080> * * called with rq->lock held and irqs disabled */ static void hrtick_start(struct rq *rq, u64 delay) { struct hrtimer *timer = &rq->hrtick_timer; 1086 ktime_t time = ktime_add_ns(timer->base->get_time(), delay); hrtimer_set_expires(timer, time); 1090 if (rq == this_rq()) { 1091 hrtimer_restart(timer); 1092 } else if (!rq->hrtick_csd_pending) { 1093 __smp_call_function_single(cpu_of(rq), &rq->hrtick_csd, 1094 rq->hrtick_csd_pending = 1; If you specifying function name, this shows function-relative line number. # ./perf probe --line schedule <schedule:0> asmlinkage void __sched schedule(void) 1 { struct task_struct *prev, *next; unsigned long *switch_count; struct rq *rq; int cpu; need_resched: preempt_disable(); 9 cpu = smp_processor_id(); 10 rq = cpu_rq(cpu); 11 rcu_sched_qs(cpu); 12 prev = rq->curr; 13 switch_count = &prev->nivcsw; Signed-off-by:Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: systemtap <systemtap@sources.redhat.com> Cc: DLE <dle-develop@lists.sourceforge.net> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> LKML-Reference: <20100106144534.27218.77939.stgit@dhcp-100-2-132.bos.redhat.com> Signed-off-by:

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 ........

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. Reported-by:

While processing kernel perf callchains, an bad entry can be considered as a valid stack pointer but not as a kernel address. In this case, we hang in an endless loop. This can happen in an x86-32 kernel after processing the last entry in a kernel stacktrace. Just stop the stack frame walking after we encounter an invalid kernel address. This fixes a hard lockup in x86-32. Signed-off-by:

/sys/bus/pci/drivers/megaraid_sas/poll_mode_io defaults to being world-writable, which seems bad (letting any user affect kernel driver behavior). This turns off group and user write permissions, so that on typical production systems only root can write to it. Signed-off-by:

There are two copies of list_sort() in the tree already, one in the DRM code, another in ubifs. Now XFS needs this as well. Create a generic list_sort() function from the ubifs version and convert existing users to it so we don't end up with yet another copy in the tree. Signed-off-by:
