From: Linus Torvalds Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2018 19:15:14 +0000 (-0800) Subject: Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git... X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d8b91dde38f4c43bd0bbbf17a90f735b16aaff2c;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar: "Kernel side changes: - Clean up the x86 instruction decoder (Masami Hiramatsu) - Add new uprobes optimization for PUSH instructions on x86 (Yonghong Song) - Add MSR_IA32_THERM_STATUS to the MSR events (Stephane Eranian) - Fix misc bugs, update documentation, plus various cleanups (Jiri Olsa) There's a large number of tooling side improvements: - Intel-PT/BTS improvements (Adrian Hunter) - Numerous 'perf trace' improvements (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Introduce an errno code to string facility (Hendrik Brueckner) - Various build system improvements (Jiri Olsa) - Add support for CoreSight trace decoding by making the perf tools use the external openCSD (Mathieu Poirier, Tor Jeremiassen) - Add ARM Statistical Profiling Extensions (SPE) support (Kim Phillips) - libtraceevent updates (Steven Rostedt) - Intel vendor event JSON updates (Andi Kleen) - Introduce 'perf report --mmaps' and 'perf report --tasks' to show info present in 'perf.data' (Jiri Olsa, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Add infrastructure to record first and last sample time to the perf.data file header, so that when processing all samples in a 'perf record' session, such as when doing build-id processing, or when specifically requesting that that info be recorded, use that in 'perf report --time', that also got support for percent slices in addition to absolute ones. I.e. now it is possible to ask for the samples in the 10%-20% time slice of a perf.data file (Jin Yao) - Allow system wide 'perf stat --per-thread', sorting the result (Jin Yao) E.g.: [root@jouet ~]# perf stat --per-thread --metrics IPC ^C Performance counter stats for 'system wide': make-22229 23,012,094,032 inst_retired.any # 0.8 IPC cc1-22419 692,027,497 inst_retired.any # 0.8 IPC gcc-22418 328,231,855 inst_retired.any # 0.9 IPC cc1-22509 220,853,647 inst_retired.any # 0.8 IPC gcc-22486 199,874,810 inst_retired.any # 1.0 IPC as-22466 177,896,365 inst_retired.any # 0.9 IPC cc1-22465 150,732,374 inst_retired.any # 0.8 IPC gcc-22508 112,555,593 inst_retired.any # 0.9 IPC cc1-22487 108,964,079 inst_retired.any # 0.7 IPC qemu-system-x86-2697 21,330,550 inst_retired.any # 0.3 IPC systemd-journal-551 20,642,951 inst_retired.any # 0.4 IPC docker-containe-17651 9,552,892 inst_retired.any # 0.5 IPC dockerd-current-9809 7,528,586 inst_retired.any # 0.5 IPC make-22153 12,504,194,380 inst_retired.any # 0.8 IPC python2-22429 12,081,290,954 inst_retired.any # 0.8 IPC python2-22429 15,026,328,103 cpu_clk_unhalted.thread cc1-22419 826,660,193 cpu_clk_unhalted.thread gcc-22418 365,321,295 cpu_clk_unhalted.thread cc1-22509 279,169,362 cpu_clk_unhalted.thread gcc-22486 210,156,950 cpu_clk_unhalted.thread 5.638075538 seconds time elapsed [root@jouet ~]# - Improve shell auto-completion of perf events (Jin Yao) - 'perf probe' improvements (Masami Hiramatsu) - Improve PMU infrastructure to support amp64's ThunderX2 implementation defined core events (Ganapatrao Kulkarni) - Various annotation related improvements and fixes (Thomas Richter) - Clarify usage of 'overwrite' and 'backward' in the evlist/mmap code, removing the 'overwrite' parameter from several functions as it was always used it as 'false' (Wang Nan) - Fix/improve 'perf record' reverse recording support (Wang Nan) - Improve command line options documentation (Sihyeon Jang) - Optimize sample parsing for ordering events, where we don't need to parse all the PERF_SAMPLE_ bits, just the ones leading to the timestamp needed to reorder events (Jiri Olsa) - Generalize the annotation code to support other source information besides objdump/DWARF obtained ones, starting with python scripts, that will is slated to be merged soon (Jiri Olsa) - ... and a lot more that I failed to list, see the shortlog and changelog for details" * 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (262 commits) perf trace beauty flock: Move to separate object file perf evlist: Remove fcntl.h from evlist.h perf trace beauty futex: Beautify FUTEX_BITSET_MATCH_ANY perf trace: Do not print from time delta for interrupted syscall lines perf trace: Add --print-sample perf bpf: Remove misplaced __maybe_unused attribute MAINTAINERS: Adding entry for CoreSight trace decoding perf tools: Add mechanic to synthesise CoreSight trace packets perf tools: Add full support for CoreSight trace decoding pert tools: Add queue management functionality perf tools: Add functionality to communicate with the openCSD decoder perf tools: Add support for decoding CoreSight trace data perf tools: Add decoder mechanic to support dumping trace data perf tools: Add processing of coresight metadata perf tools: Add initial entry point for decoder CoreSight traces perf tools: Integrating the CoreSight decoding library perf vendor events intel: Update IvyTown files to V20 perf vendor events intel: Update IvyBridge files to V20 perf vendor events intel: Update BroadwellDE events to V7 perf vendor events intel: Update SkylakeX events to V1.06 ... --- d8b91dde38f4c43bd0bbbf17a90f735b16aaff2c
