Hi Ingo,

        Please consider pulling after at least Ian and Peter acks it:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux-2.6 perf/core

	Peter already acked a previous version of this, so I left his acked by
there, this new one is much simpler than the first one he acked, so I think
he'll be happy with this one as well, Peter?

	I tested it using the perf tools built from what is in tip/perf/urgent
and it works as expected, i.e. the new fields are just discarded since they are
stashed as a trailer in the MMAP, FORK, etc events, so old tools process new
perf.data files just fine.

	Also the new tools works on older kernels, also tested.

	Ian, if you prefer, please test it before Ingo merges it.

Regards,

- Arnaldo

Those will be made available in sample like events like MMAP, EXEC, etc in a
followup patch. So precalculate the extra id header space and have a separate
routine to fill them up.

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

If perf_event_attr.sample_id_all is set it will add the PERF_SAMPLE_ identity
info:

TID, TIME, ID, CPU, STREAM_ID

As a trailer, so that older perf tools can process new files, just ignoring the
extra payload.

With this its possible to do further analysis on problems in the event stream,
like detecting reordering of MMAP and FORK events, etc.

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

At perf_session__process_event, so that we reduce the number of lines in eache
tool sample processing routine that now receives a sample_data pointer already
parsed.

This will also be useful in the next patch, where we'll allow sample the
identity fields in MMAP, FORK, EXIT, etc, when it will be possible to see (cpu,
timestamp) just after before every event.

Also validate callchains in perf_session__process_event, i.e. as early as
possible, and keep a counter of the number of events discarded due to invalid
callchains, warning the user about it if it happens.

There is an assumption that was kept that all events have the same sample_type,
that will be dealt with in the future, when this preexisting limitation will be
removed.

So that we can use -T == --timestamp, asking for PERF_SAMPLE_TIME:

First column is the cpu and the second the timestamp.

That way we can investigate problems in the event stream.

If the new perf binary is run on an older kernel, it will disable this feature

Did so. Have some odd fallout:

    tracepoint event: type 65535

    data->tid 2621441 data->pid 9

Investigating. Please wait

Thanks, as I said on IRC, perhaps I neglected the non-perf bits of perf
:-\

- Arnaldo

Guess even for people understanding that "perf" is not just about
profiling that name gets in the way, "observe" is the only thing I think
I would think in a potential rename, but heck, it has 3+ letters :-\

I'd put a comment in each event to be clear, but this is fine too.

How about:

-    int size = comm_event->event_id.header.size;
-    int ret = perf_output_begin(&handle, event, size, 0, 0);
+    int size, ret;

Like you did for perf_event_mmap_output?

I'm of two minds about allowing the user to request this. My patches
will enable this by default if sampling from multiple CPUs, which is the
norm unless no_inherit is specified, so this option will not have any
affect unless sampling from a single CPU as well.

Should we warn the user here? I guess the warning applies more to my
patches then these though, since I'm fixing a bug whereas you are just
adding a new feature, and samples will still have timestamps in your
patches either way.

> +        printf("%Lu ", sample->time);

A little off topic, but I've noticed this in a few places throughout the
perf code - the L length modifier in printf is for a long double, not a
long long int (which is ll). The fact that this works with glibc is a
bug (and we've seen how little sympathy the glibc developers have for
programs not using glibc as per the standard). See the note in
CONFORMING TO in the printf man page.

Have done so and just about finished rebasing my patches on top of these
- I'll try to get them posted tonight. The bug I was working on is
fixed, so I'm happy :)

I haven't come across the bug that Thomas ran into, but then again I
haven't been testing the non-perf parts of perf for this either.

Which reminds me, does anyone have a test suite for perf other than
./perf test?

Cheers,
-Ian

It's a perf bit of perf. You simply broke the inheritance
code. Testing perf with something more complex than "sleep 1" might
have shown this :)

The precalculated header size is not updated when an event is inherited. That
results in bogus sample entries for all child events.

I'll work on the problem related by Thomas today.

Not that I know of, perf test is intended to be that, please consider
adding more tests :)

I want to do things like start a thread that will generate cache misses,
and then have a monitor thread measuring it, passing the test if it gets
into some range (its sampling after all), etc.

perf events: Fix event inherit fallout of precalculated headers

The precalculated header size is not updated when an event is inherited. That
results in bogus sample entries for all child events. Bug introduced in c320c7b.
