And with that fix at least one bug:
The first hit for an entry, the one that calls malloc to create a new
instance in __perf_session__add_hist_entry, wasn't adding the count to
the per cpumode (PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER, etc) total variable.

struct sort_entry has a callback named snprintf that turns an
entry into a string result.
But there are glibc versions that implement snprintf through a
macro. The following expression is then going to get the snprintf
call preprocessed:
ent->snprintf(...)
to finally end up in a build error:
util/hist.c: Dans la fonction «hist_entry__snprintf» :
util/hist.c:539: erreur: «struct sort_entry» has no member named «__builtin___snprintf_chk»
To fix this, prepend struct sort_entry callbacks with an "se_"
prefix.

The struct callchain_node size is 120 bytes, that are never used when
there are no callchains or '-g none' is specified, so conditionally
allocate it, reducing sizeof(struct hist_entry) from 210 bytes to only
96, greatly speeding the non-callchain processing.

Then hist_entry__fprintf will just us the newly introduced
hist_entry__snprintf, add the newline and fprintf it to the supplied
FILE descriptor.
This allows us to remove the use_browser checking in the color_printf
routines, that now got color_snprintf variants too.
The newt TUI browser (and other GUIs that may come in the future) don't
have to worry about stdio specific stuff in the strings they get from
the se->snprintf routines and instead use whatever means to do the
equivalent.
Also the newt TUI browser don't have to use the fmemopen() hack, instead
it can use the se->snprintf routines directly. For now tho use the
hist_entry__snprintf routine to reduce the patch size.

For when we are processing the events and inserting the entries in the
browser.
Experimentation here: naming "ui_something" we may be treading into
creating a TUI/GUI set of routines that can then be implemented in terms
of multiple backends.
Also the time it takes for adding things to the "browser" takes, visually
(I guess I should do some profiling here ;-) ), more time than for
processing the events...
That means we probably need to create a custom hist_entry browser, so
that we reuse the structures we have in place instead of duplicating
them in newt.
But progress was made and at least we can see something while long files
are being loaded, that must be one of UI 101 bullet points :-)

That will be in both struct hist_entry and struct
callchain_list, so that the TUI can store a pointer to the pair
(map, symbol) in the trees where hist_entries and

of looking for the first symbol with the selected name.

Callchains have markers inside their capture to tell we
enter a context (kernel, user, ...).
Those are not displayed in the callchains but they are
incidentally an active part of the radix tree where
callchains are stored, just like any other address.
If we have the two following callchains:
addr1 -> addr2 -> user context -> addr3
addr1 -> addr2 -> user context -> addr4
addr1 -> addr2 -> addr 5
This is pretty common if addr1 and addr2 are part of an
interrupt path, addr3 and addr4 are user addresses and
addr5 is a kernel non interrupt path.
This will be stored as follows in the tree:
addr1
addr2
/ \
/ addr5
user context
/ \
addr3 addr4
But we ignore the context markers in the report, hence
the addr3 and addr4 will appear as orphan branches:
|--28.30%-- hrtimer_interrupt
| smp_apic_timer_interrupt
| apic_timer_interrupt
| | <------------- here, no parent!
| | |
| | |--11.11%-- 0x7fae7bccb875
| | |
| | |--11.11%-- 0xffffffffff60013b
| | |
| | |--11.11%-- __pthread_mutex_lock_internal
| | |
| | |--11.11%-- __errno_location
Fix this by removing the context markers when we process the
callchains to the tree.

Not good, the newt form for report works, but slang has to eat
the cost of the additional callgraph lines everytime it prints a
line, and the callgraph doesn't appear on the screen, so move
the callgraph printing to a separate function and don't use it
in newt.c.
Newt tree widgets are being investigated to properly support
callgraphs, but till that gets merged, lets remove this huge
overhead and show at least the symbol overheads for a callgraph
rich perf.data with good performance.

If -vv is used just the map table will be printed, -vvv will
print the symbol table too, with it we can see that we have a
bug where some samples are not being resolved to a map when we
get them in the perf.data stream, but after we have it all
processed, we can find the right map, some reordering probably
is happening.
Upcoming patches will provide ways to ask for most PERF_SAMPLE_
conditional samples to be taken for !PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE events
too, then we'll be able to ask for PERF_SAMPLE_TIME and

That means that almost everything you can do with 'perf report'
can be done with 'perf diff', for instance:
$ perf record -f find / > /dev/null
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.062 MB perf.data (~2699
samples) ] $ perf record -f find / > /dev/null
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.062 MB perf.data (~2687
samples) ] perf diff | head -8
9.02% +1.00% find libc-2.10.1.so [.] _IO_vfprintf_internal
2.91% -1.00% find [kernel] [k] __kmalloc
2.85% -1.00% find [kernel] [k] ext4_htree_store_dirent
1.99% -1.00% find [kernel] [k] _atomic_dec_and_lock
2.44% find [kernel] [k] half_md4_transform
$
So if you want to zoom into libc:
$ perf diff --dsos libc-2.10.1.so | head -8
37.34% find [.] _IO_vfprintf_internal
10.34% find [.] __GI_memmove
8.25% +2.00% find [.] _int_malloc
5.07% -1.00% find [.] __GI_mempcpy
7.62% +2.00% find [.] _int_free
$
And if there were multiple commands using libc, it is also
possible to aggregate them all by using --sort symbol:
$ perf diff --dsos libc-2.10.1.so --sort symbol | head -8
37.34% [.] _IO_vfprintf_internal
10.34% [.] __GI_memmove
8.25% +2.00% [.] _int_malloc
5.07% -1.00% [.] __GI_mempcpy
7.62% +2.00% [.] _int_free
$
The displacement column now is off by default, to use it:
perf diff -m --dsos libc-2.10.1.so --sort symbol | head -8
37.34% [.] _IO_vfprintf_internal
10.34% [.] __GI_memmove
8.25% +2.00% [.] _int_malloc
5.07% -1.00% +2 [.] __GI_mempcpy
7.62% +2.00% -1 [.] _int_free
$
Using -t/--field-separator can be used for scripting:
$ perf diff -t, -m --dsos libc-2.10.1.so --sort symbol | head -8
37.34, , ,[.] _IO_vfprintf_internal
10.34, , ,[.] __GI_memmove

Now we have a very high level routine for simple tools to
process IP sample events:
int event__preprocess_sample(const event_t *self,
struct addr_location *al,
symbol_filter_t filter)
It receives the event itself and will insert new threads in the
global threads list and resolve the map and symbol, filling all
this info into the new addr_location struct, so that tools like
annotate and report can further process the event by creating
hist_entries in their specific way (with or without callgraphs,
etc).
It in turn uses the new next layer function:
void thread__find_addr_location(struct thread *self, u8 cpumode,
enum map_type type, u64 addr,
struct addr_location *al,
symbol_filter_t filter)
This one will, given a thread (userspace or the kernel kthread
one), will find the given type (MAP__FUNCTION now, MAP__VARIABLE
too in the near future) at the given cpumode, taking vdsos into
account (userspace hit, but kernel symbol) and will fill all
these details in the addr_location given.
Tools that need a more compact API for plain function
resolution, like 'kmem', can use this other one:
struct symbol *thread__find_function(struct thread *self, u64 addr,
symbol_filter_t filter)
So, to resolve a kernel symbol, that is all the 'kmem' tool
needs, its just a matter of calling:
sym = thread__find_function(kthread, addr, NULL);
The 'filter' parameter is needed because we do lazy
parsing/loading of ELF symtabs or /proc/kallsyms.
With this we remove more code duplication all around, which is
always good, huh? :-)
