      perf tools: Bool functions shouldn't return -1 · bf644563
      Peter Senna Tschudin authored
      
      Returning a negative value for a boolean function seem to have the
      undesired effect of returning true. Replace -1 by false in a
      bool-returning function.
      
      The diff of the .s file before and after the change (for x86_64):
      
        3907c3907
        < 	movl	$1, %ebx
        ---
        > 	xorl	%ebx, %ebx
      
      while if -1 is replaced by true, the diff is empty.
      
      This issue was found by the following Coccinelle semantic patch:
      
        <smpl>
        @@
        identifier f;
        constant C;
        typedef bool;
        @@
        bool f (...){
        <+...
        * return -C;
        ...+>
        }
        </smpl>

      tools build: Add test for presence of __get_cpuid() gcc builtin · b0063dbf
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      The auxtrace code needed by Intel PT uses the __get_cpuid() gcc builtin,
      that is not present in old systems, breaking the build.
      
      Add a test to check for that builtin and disable AUXTRACE in those
      systems.
      
        [acme@rhel5 linux]$  make NO_LIBPERL=1 -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin
        make: Entering directory `/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
          BUILD:   Doing 'make -j2' parallel build
      
        Auto-detecting system features:
        <SNIP>
        ...                          lzma: [ on  ]
        ...                     get_cpuid: [ OFF ]
        <SNIP>
        config/Makefile:630: Your gcc lacks the __get_cpuid() builtin, disables support for auxtrace/Intel PT, please install a newer gcc
          MKDIR    /tmp/build/perf/util/
        <SNIP>
      
      This fixes the build on old systems such as RHEL/CentOS 5.11.

      tools build: Add test for presence of numa_num_possible_cpus() in libnuma · f8ac8606
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      The existing numa test checks only if numa.h and numa_available() are
      present, but that can be satisfied with an old libnuma that is not
      enough for the 'perf bench numa' entry, so add a test to check for that:
      
        [acme@rhel5 linux]$  make NO_AUXTRACE=1 NO_LIBPERL=1 -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin
        make: Entering directory `/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'

      Revert "perf symbols: Fix mismatched declarations for elf_getphdrnum" · 179f36dd
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      This reverts commit f785f235
      
      .
      
      We have a test to check if elf_getphdrnum() is present, so, if it fails,
      we'll get:
      
        [acme@rhel5 linux]$ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libelf-getphdrnum.make.output
        cc1: warnings being treated as errors
        test-libelf-getphdrnum.c: In function ‘main’:
        test-libelf-getphdrnum.c:7: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘elf_getphdrnum’
        [acme@rhel5 linux]$
      
      And this block will not be compiled:
      
        #ifndef HAVE_ELF_GETPHDRNUM_SUPPORT
        static int elf_getphdrnum(Elf *elf, size_t *dst)
        ...
        #endif
      
      So, if elf_getphdrnum() is being defined somewhere, there is a problem
      with the test that is not detecting that function, go fix it.

      perf stat: Fix per-pkg event reporting bug · 02d8dabc
      Stephane Eranian authored
      
      Per-pkg events need to be captured once per processor socket. The code
      in check_per_pkg() ensures only one value per processor package is used.
      However there is a problem with this function in case the first CPU of
      the package does not measure anything for the per-pkg event, but other
      CPUs do.
      
      Consider the following:
      
        $ create cgroup FOO; echo $$ >FOO/tasks; taskset -c 1 noploop &
        $ perf stat -a -I 1000 -e intel_cqm/llc_occupancy/ -G FOO sleep 100
          1.00000 <not counted> Bytes intel_cqm/llc_occupancy/  FOO
      
      The reason for this is that CPU0 in the cgroup has nothing running on it.
      Yet check_per_plg() will mark socket0 as processed and no other event
      value will be considered for the socket.
      
      This patch fixes the problem by having check_per_pkg() only consider
      events which actually ran.
