* percpu: make percpu symbols in oprofile uniqueTejun Heo2009-10-291-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch updates percpu related symbols in oprofile such that percpu symbols are unique and don't clash with local symbols. This serves two purposes of decreasing the possibility of global percpu symbol collision and allowing dropping per_cpu__ prefix from percpu symbols. * drivers/oprofile/cpu_buffer.c: s/cpu_buffer/op_cpu_buffer/ Partly based on Rusty Russell's "alloc_percpu: rename percpu vars which cause name clashes" patch.

* oprofile: Adding switch counter to oprofile statistic variablesRobert Richter2009-07-201-7/+2
| | | | | | | | | This patch moves the multiplexing switch counter from x86 code to common oprofile statistic variables. Now the value will be available and usable for all architectures. The initialization and incrementation also moved to common code. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
* oprofile: Implement performance counter multiplexingJason Yeh2009-07-201-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The number of hardware counters is limited. The multiplexing feature enables OProfile to gather more events than counters are provided by the hardware. This is realized by switching between events at an user specified time interval. A new file (/dev/oprofile/time_slice) is added for the user to specify the timer interval in ms. If the number of events to profile is higher than the number of hardware counters available, the patch will schedule a work queue that switches the event counter and re-writes the different sets of values into it. The switching mechanism needs to be implemented for each architecture to support multiplexing. This patch only implements AMD CPU support, but multiplexing can be easily extended for other models and architectures. There are follow-on patches that rework parts of this patch.

* oprofile: reset bt_lost_no_mapping with other statsMaynard Johnson2009-07-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | The bt_lost_no_mapping is not getting reset at the start of a profiling run, thus the oprofiled.log shows erroneous values for this statistic. The attached patch fixes this problem. Signed-off-by: Maynard Johnson <maynardj@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

* oProfile: oops when profile_pc() returns ~0LUPhilippe Elie2007-11-141-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instruction pointer returned by profile_pc() can be a random value. This break the assumption than we can safely set struct op_sample.eip field to a magic value to signal to the per-cpu buffer reader side special event like task switch ending up in a segfault in get_task_mm() when profile_pc() return ~0UL. Fixed by sanitizing the sampled eip and reject/log invalid eip. Problem reported by Sami Farin, patch tested by him.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
