Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.18-20180606' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: perf stat: - Display user and system time for workload targets (Jiri Olsa) perf record: - Enable arbitrary event names thru name= modifier (Alexey Budankov) PowerPC: - Add a python script for hypervisor call statistics (Ravi Bangoria) Intel PT: (Adrian Hunter) - Fix sync_switch INTEL_PT_SS_NOT_TRACING - Fix decoding to accept CBR between FUP and corresponding TIP - Fix MTC timing after overflow - Fix "Unexpected indirect branch" error perf test: - record+probe_libc_inet_pton: - To get the symbol table for dynamic shared objects on ubuntu we need to pass the -D/--dynamic command line option, unlike with the fedora distros (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - code-reading: - Fix perf_env setup for PTI entry trampolines (Adrian Hunter) - kmod-path: - Add tests for vdso32 and vdsox32 (Adrian Hunter) - Use header file util/debug.h (Thomas Richter) perf annotate: - Make the various UI backends (stdio, TUI, gtk) use more consistently structs with annotation options as specified by the user (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Move annotation specific knobs from the symbol_conf global kitchen sink to the annotation option structs (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) perf script: - Add more PMU fields to python scripts event handler dict (Jin Yao) Core: - Fix misleading error for some unparsable events mentioning PMUs when those are not involved in the problem (Jiri Olsa) - Consider BSS symbols when processing /proc/kallsyms ('B' and 'b') (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Be more robust when trying to use per-symbol histograms, checking for unlikely but possible cases where the space for the histograms wasn't allocated, print a debug message for such cases (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Fix symbol and object code resolution for vdso32 and vdsox32 (Adrian Hunter) - No need to check for null when passing pointers to foo__get() style refcount grabbing helpers, just like in the kernel and with free(), its safe to pass a NULL pointer to avoid having to check it before each and every foo__get() call (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Remove some dead code (quote.[ch]) (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Remove some needless globals, making them local (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Reduce usage of symbol_conf.use_callchain, using other means of finding out if callchains are in use or available for specific events, as we evolved this codebase to allow requesting callchains for just a subset of the monitored events. In time it will help polish recording and showing mixed sets accross the various tools: perf record -e cycles/call-graph=fp/,cache-misses/call-graph=dwarf/,instructions' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Consider PTI entry trampolines in map__rip_2objdump() (Adrian Hunter) Signed-off-by:Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by:
