perf hists browser: Allow annotating entries in callchains
Instead of annotating just the top level hist_entry, allow instead
annotating a map_symbol, i.e. the top level hist_entry or one of the
callchains for which there were samples.

perf hists browser: Fix UI bug after fold/unfold
In perf hists browser, the fold/unfold stat of each hist entry is

perf symbols: Allow symbol alias when loading map for symbol name
When perf probe tries to add a probe in a binary using symbol name, it
sometimes failed since some symbols were discard during loading dso.
When it resolves an address to symbol, it'd be better to have just one
symbol at given address. But for finding address from symbol, it'd be
better to keep all names (including aliases).
So allow tools to state that they want to allow aliases via
symbol_conf.allow_aliases.

perf probe: Fix to handle aliased symbols in glibc
Fix perf probe to handle aliased symbols correctly in glibc. In the
glibc, several symbols are defined as an alias of __libc_XXX, e.g.
malloc is an alias of __libc_malloc.
In such cases, dwarf has no subroutine instances of the alias functions
(e.g. no "malloc" instance), but the map has that symbol and its
address.
Thus, if we search the alieased symbol in debuginfo, we always fail to
find it, but it is in the map.
To solve this problem, this fails back to address-based alternative
search, which searches the symbol in the map, translates its address to
alternative (correct) function name by using debuginfo, and retry to
find the alternative function point from debuginfo.
This adds fail-back process to --vars, --lines and --add options. So,
now you can use those on malloc@libc :)

Appears on every perf build that does not have a sufficient python

configuration pass and users should not see it - and it's pretty
meaningless to them in any case because the message is not very helpful.
(So it's not executable. Why does that matter? What can the user do

Remove the warning, the missing python feature warning is sufficient:

perf tools: Fix the bash completion problem of 'perf --*'
The perf-completion.sh uses a predefined string '--help --version
--exec-path --html-path --paginate --no-pager --perf-dir --work-tree
--debugfs-dir' for the bash completion of 'perf --*', which has two
problems:
Problem 1: If the options of perf are changed (see handle_options() in
perf.c), the perf-completion.sh has to be changed at the same time. If
not, the bash completion of 'perf --*' and the options which perf
really supports will be inconsistent.
Problem 2: When typing another single character after 'perf --', e.g.
'h', and hit TAB key to get the bash completion of 'perf --h', the
character 'h' disappears at once. This is not what we want, we wish the
bash completion can return '--help --html-path' and then we can
continue to choose one.
To solve this problem, we add '--list-opts' to perf, which now supports
'perf --list-opts' directly, and its result can be used in bash
completion now.
Example:
Before this patch:
$ perf --h <-- hit TAB key after character 'h'
$ perf -- <-- 'h' disappears and no required result

$ perf --h <-- hit TAB key after character 'h'

perf diff: Support for different binaries
Currently, the perf diff only works with same binaries. That's because
it compares the symbol start address. It doesn't work if the perf.data
comes from different binaries. This patch matches the symbol names.
Actually, perf diff once intended to compare the symbol names. The
commit as below can look for a pair by name.
604c5c92972d (perf diff: Change the default sort order to "dso,symbol")
However, at that time, perf diff used a global list of dsos. That means
the binaries which has same name can only be loaded once. That's a
problem for comparing different binaries.
For example, we have an old binary and an updated binary. They very
likely have same name and most of the functions, so only dsos from old
binary will be loaded. When processing the data from updated binary,
perf still use the symbol information from old binary. That's wrong.
Then the commit as below used IP to replace symbol name. 9c443dfdd31e ("perf diff: Fix support for all --sort combinations")
>From that time, perf diff starts to compare the symbol address.
The global dsos is discarded from a patch in 2010. a1645ce12adb ("perf: 'perf kvm' tool for monitoring guest performance
from host")
However, at that time, perf diff already compared by address. So perf
diff cannot work for different binaries as well.
This patch actually rolls back the perf diff to original design. The
document is also changed, so everybody knows the original design is to
compare the symbol names.
Here are some examples:
The only difference between example_v1.c and example_v2.c is the

- Some perf_session untanglement patches, removing the need to pass a

perf tools: Fix probing for PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC flag
Commit f6edb53c4993ffe92ce521fb449d1c146cea6ec2 converted the probe to
a CPU wide event first (pid == -1). For kernels that do not support
the PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC flag the probe fails with EINVAL. Since this
errno is not handled pid is not reset to 0 and the subsequent use of
pid = -1 as an argument brings in an additional failure path if
perf_event_paranoid > 0:
$ perf record -- sleep 1
perf_event_open(..., 0) failed unexpectedly with error 13 (Permission denied)
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.007 MB /tmp/perf.data (11 samples) ]
Also, ensure the fd of the confirmation check is closed and comment why
pid = -1 is used.
Needs to go to 3.18 stable tree as well.

perf data: Add a 'perf' prefix to the generic fields
Some of the tracers bring their own id or pid fields and we can end up
having two of them. This patch adds a "perf_" prefix to the 'generic'
fields so we avoid a clash of the member names.
The change is visible in the babeltrace output:

perf data: Add perf data to CTF conversion support
Adding 'perf data convert' to convert perf data file into different
format. This patch adds support for CTF format conversion.
To convert perf.data into CTF run:
$ perf data convert --to-ctf=./ctf-data/
[ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './ctf-data/' ]
[ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 11.268 MB (100230 samples) ]
The command will create CTF metadata out of perf.data file (or one
specified via -i option) and then convert all sample events into single
CTF stream.
Each sample_type bit is translated into separated CTF event field apart
from following exceptions:
PERF_SAMPLE_RAW - added in next patch
PERF_SAMPLE_READ - TODO
PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN - TODO
PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK - TODO
PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_USER - TODO

The following members to the ctf-environment were decided to be added to
distinguish and specify perf CTF data:
- domain
It says "kernel" because it contains a kernel trace (not to be
confused with a user space like lttng-ust does)
- tracer_name
It says perf. This can be used to distinguish between lttng and perf
CTF based trace.
- version
The kernel version from stream. In addition to release, this is what
it looks like on a Debian kernel:

the inescapable conclusion that internet polls are bad.
Big surprise.
But "Hurr durr I'ma sheep" trounced "I like online polls" by a 62-to-38%
margin, in a poll that people weren't even supposed to participate in.
Who can argue with solid numbers like that? 5,796 votes from people who
can't even follow the most basic directions?
In contrast, "v4.0" beat out "v3.20" by a slimmer margin of 56-to-44%,
but with a total of 29,110 votes right now.
Now, arguably, that vote spread is only about 3,200 votes, which is less
than the almost six thousand votes that the "please ignore" poll got, so
it could be considered noise.
