[PATCH 08/19] tools lib traceevent: Unregister handler when mac80211 plugin is unloaded

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>

The event handler should be unregistered when the plugin is unloaded
otherwise it'll try to access invalid memory.

Currently various build test can be performed using a Makefile named

command line.

Add the 'build-test' target in the main Makefile as a shortcut.

[PATCH 16/19] perf symbols: Export elf_section_by_name and reuse

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>

Remove duplicated elf_section_by_name() functions from unwind.c and
probe-event.c and use one exported elf_section_by_name() instance
defined in symbol-elf.c.

Note that this also moves get_text_start_address() to merge
HAVE_DWARF_SUPPORT defined area.

[PATCH 17/19] perf tools: Do proper comm override error handling

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>

The comm overriding API ignores memory allocation failures by silently
keeping the previous and out of date comm.

As a result, the user may get buggy events without ever being notified
about the problem and its source.

Lets start to fix this by propagating the error from the API. Not all
callers may be doing proper error handling on comm set yet but this is
the first step toward it.

[PATCH 18/19] perf callchain: Spare double comparison of callchain first entry

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>

When a new callchain child branch matches an existing one in the rbtree,
the comparison of its first entry is performed twice:

1) From append_chain_children() on branch lookup

2) If 1) reports a match, append_chain() then compares all entries of
the new branch against the matching node in the rbtree, and this
comparison includes the first entry of the new branch again.

Lets shortcut this by performing the whole comparison only from
append_chain() which then returns the result of the comparison between
the first entry of the new branch and the iterating node in the rbtree.
If the first entry matches, the lookup on the current level of siblings
stops and propagates to the children of the matching nodes.

This results in less comparisons performed by the CPU.

[PATCH 19/19] perf tools: Remove unnecessary callchain cursor state restore on unmatch

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>

If a new callchain branch doesn't match a single entry of the node that
it is given against comparison in append_chain(), then the cursor is
expected to be at the same position as it was before the comparison
loop.

As such, there is no need to restore the cursor position on exit in case
of non matching branches.
