That means we potentially do the costly inliner lookup repeatedly for cases where we know it can never succeed. This patch makes dso__parse_addr_inlines always return a valid inline_node. It will be empty when no inliners are found. This enables us to cache the empty list in the DSO, thereby improving the performance when many addresses fail to find the inliners. For my trivial example, the performance impact is already quite significant: Before: ~~~~~ Performance counter stats for 'perf report --stdio --inline -g srcline -s srcline' (5 runs): 594.804032 task-clock (msec) # 0.998 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.07% ) 53 context-switches # 0.089 K/sec ( +- 4.09% ) 0 cpu-migrations # 0.000 K/sec ( +-100.00% ) 5,687 page-faults # 0.010 M/sec ( +- 0.02% ) 2,300,918,213 cycles # 3.868 GHz ( +- 0.09% ) 4,395,839,080 instructions # 1.91 insn per cycle ( +- 0.00% ) 939,177,205 branches # 1578.969 M/sec ( +- 0.00% ) 11,824,633 branch-misses # 1.26% of all branches ( +- 0.10% ) 0.596246531 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.07% ) ~~~~~ After: ~~~~~ Performance counter stats for 'perf report --stdio --inline -g srcline -s srcline' (5 runs): 113.111405 task-clock (msec) # 0.990 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.89% ) 29 context-switches # 0.255 K/sec ( +- 54.25% ) 0 cpu-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 5,380 page-faults # 0.048 M/sec ( +- 0.01% ) 432,378,779 cycles # 3.823 GHz ( +- 0.75% ) 670,057,633 instructions # 1.55 insn per cycle ( +- 0.01% ) 141,001,247 branches # 1246.570 M/sec ( +- 0.01% ) 2,346,845 branch-misses # 1.66% of all branches ( +- 0.19% ) 0.114222393 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.19% ) ~~~~~ Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: David Ahern Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Yao Jin Signed-off-by: Milian Wolff --- tools/perf/util/machine.c | 15 +++++++-------- tools/perf/util/srcline.c | 18 ++---------------- 2 files changed, 9 insertions(+), 24 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/util/machine.c b/tools/perf/util/machine.c index e6663b200f42..888f71793ce1 100644 --- a/tools/perf/util/machine.c +++ b/tools/perf/util/machine.c @@ -2115,9 +2115,10 @@ static int append_inlines(struct callchain_cursor *cursor, struct inline_node *inline_node; struct inline_list *ilist; u64 addr; + int ret = 1; if (!symbol_conf.inline_name || !map || !sym) - return 1; + return ret; addr = map__rip_2objdump(map, ip); @@ -2125,22 +2126,20 @@ static int append_inlines(struct callchain_cursor *cursor, if (!inline_node) { inline_node = dso__parse_addr_inlines(map->dso, addr, sym); if (!inline_node) - return 1; - + return ret; inlines__tree_insert(&map->dso->inlined_nodes, inline_node); } list_for_each_entry(ilist, &inline_node->val, list) { - int ret = callchain_cursor_append(cursor, ip, map, - ilist->symbol, false, - NULL, 0, 0, 0, - ilist->srcline); + ret = callchain_cursor_append(cursor, ip, map, + ilist->symbol, false, + NULL, 0, 0, 0, ilist->srcline); if (ret != 0) return ret; } - return 0; + return ret; } static int unwind_entry(struct unwind_entry *entry, void *arg) diff --git a/tools/perf/util/srcline.c b/tools/perf/util/srcline.c index 69241d805275..26d9954dc19e 100644 --- a/tools/perf/util/srcline.c +++ b/tools/perf/util/srcline.c @@ -353,17 +353,8 @@ static struct inline_node *addr2inlines(const char *dso_name, u64 addr, INIT_LIST_HEAD(&node->val); node->addr = addr; - if (!addr2line(dso_name, addr, NULL, NULL, dso, TRUE, node, sym)) - goto out_free_inline_node; - - if (list_empty(&node->val)) - goto out_free_inline_node; - - return node; - -out_free_inline_node: - inline_node__delete(node); - return NULL; + addr2line(dso_name, addr, NULL, NULL, dso, TRUE, node, sym); + return node; } #else /* HAVE_LIBBFD_SUPPORT */ @@ -480,11 +471,6 @@ static struct inline_node *addr2inlines(const char *dso_name, u64 addr, out: pclose(fp); - if (list_empty(&node->val)) { - inline_node__delete(node); - return NULL; - } - return node; } -- 2.14.2
