commit ad85ace07a upstream.
Currently, if we use perf kvm --guestkallsyms --guestmodules report, we
can not get the perf information from perf data file. All sample are
shown as unknown.
Reproducing steps:
# perf kvm --guestkallsyms /tmp/kallsyms --guestmodules /tmp/modules record -a sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.624 MB perf.data.guest (~27260 samples) ]
# perf kvm --guestkallsyms /tmp/kallsyms --guestmodules /tmp/modules report |grep %
100.00% [guest/6471] [unknown] [g] 0xffffffff8164f330
This bug was introduced by 207b57926 (perf kvm: Fix regression with guest machine creation).
In original code, it uses perf_session__find_machine(), it means we deliver symbol to machine
which has the same pid, if no machine found, deliver it to *default* guest. But if we use
perf_session__findnew_machine() here, if no machine was found, new machine with pid will be built
and added. Then the default guest which with pid == 0 will never get a symbol.
And because the new machine initialized here has no kernel map created, the symbol delivered to
it will be marked as "unknown".
This patch here is to revert commit 207b57926 and fix the SEGFAULT bug in another way.
Verification steps:
# ./perf kvm --guestkallsyms /home/kallsyms --guestmodules /home/modules record -a sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.651 MB perf.data.guest (~28437 samples) ]

commit a363a9da65 upstream.
Among other things, the following:
commit 31160d7fea
Date: Tue Jan 8 16:22:36 2013 -0500
perf tools: Fix GNU make v3.80 compatibility issue
attempts to aid the user by tapping into an existing error message,
as described in the commit message:
... Also fix an issue where _get_attempt was called with only
one argument. This prevented the error message from printing
the name of the variable that can be used to fix the problem.
or more precisely:
-$(if $($(1)),$(call _ge_attempt,$($(1)),$(1)),$(call _ge_attempt,$(2)))
+$(if $($(1)),$(call _ge_attempt,$($(1)),$(1)),$(call _ge_attempt,$(2),$(1)))
However, The "missing" argument was in fact missing on purpose; it's
absence is a signal that the error message should be skipped, because
the failure would be due to the default value, not any user-supplied
value. This can be seen in how `_ge_attempt' uses `gea_err' (in the
config/utilities.mak file):
_ge_attempt = $(if $(get-executable),$(get-executable),$(_gea_warn)$(call _gea_err,$(2)))
_gea_warn = $(warning The path '$(1)' is not executable.)
_gea_err = $(if $(1),$(error Please set '$(1)' appropriately))
That is, because the argument is no longer missing, the value `$(1)'
(associated with `_gea_err') always evaluates to true, thus always
triggering the error condition that is meant to be reserved for
only the case when a user explicitly supplies an invalid value.
Concretely, the result is a regression in the Makefile's configuration
of python support; rather than gracefully disable support when the
relevant executables cannot be found according to default values, the
build process halts in error as though the user explicitly supplied
the values.
This new commit simply reverts the offending one-line change.

The comparison between traced and symbol addresses is backwards: if
the traced address doesn't exactly match a symbol (which we don't
expect it to), we'll show the next symbol and the offset to it,
whereas we should show the previous symbol and the offset from it.

This reverts commit 0439539f72.
This caused this segfault:
[root@sandy linux]# perf sched rec
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.306 MB perf.data (~57062 samples) ]
perf
[root@sandy linux]# perf sched lat
perf: builtin-sched.c:781: thread_atoms_search: Assertion `!(thread != atoms->thread)' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)
[root@sandy linux]#
Further investigation is needed to check that even with machine__remove_thread()
not really deleting the thread referenced in the PERF_RECORD_EXIT (it goes to
machine->dead_threads, because references may still exist to them in things like
hist, etc) some event later comes for this dead thread and then
machine__findnew_thread() will create a new thead instance that will not be the
same as the one referenced by work_atoms->thread in thread_atoms_search().
For now just revert this patch to get the 'perf sched lat' back working.

This patch adds the sorting and histogram support
functions to enable profiling of memory accesses.
The following sorting orders are added:
- symbol_daddr: data address symbol (or raw address)
- dso_daddr: data address shared object
- locked: access uses locked transaction
- tlb : TLB access
- mem : memory level of the access (L1, L2, L3, RAM, ...)
- snoop: access snoop mode

perf record has a new option -W that enables weightened sampling.
Add sorting support in top/report for the average weight per sample and the
total weight sum. This allows to both compare relative cost per event
and the total cost over the measurement period.
Add the necessary glue to perf report, record and the library.
v2: Merge with new hist refactoring.
v3: Fix manpage. Remove value check.
Rename global_weight to weight and weight to local_weight.
v4: Readd sort keys to manpage
v5: Move weight to end
v6: Move weight to template
v7: Rename weight key.
Original patch from Andi modified by Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com>
to include ONLY the weight supporting code and apply to pristine 3.8.0-rc4.
