      perf tools: No need to test against NULL before calling free() · f5385650
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      Its perfectly fine to call free(NULL), so no need to clutter the source
code with all those superfluous testing.

      perf ui/tui: Split help message for perf top and report · e8e684a5
      Namhyung Kim authored 
      
Some hotkeys don't work for perf top so split help messages for them.

It'll be helpful to a future modification.  Also sort the message by
alphabetical order of the hotkey.

      perf ui/tui: Protect windows by ui__lock · 5c743cf5
      Namhyung Kim authored 
      
Sometimes perf top TUI breaks display with concurrent help/input window
and pr_* messages since they're not protected by ui__lock.

You can check it by pressing (and not releasing) 'h' key on a "perf top
-vvv" TUI session.

      perf probe: Support basic dwarf-based operations on uprobe events · fb7345bb
      Masami Hiramatsu authored 
      
Support basic dwarf(debuginfo) based operations for uprobe events.  With
this change, perf probe can analyze debuginfo of user application binary
to set up new uprobe event.

This allows perf-probe --add(with local variables, line numbers) and
--line works with -x option.  (Actually, --vars has already accepted -x
option)

For example, the following command shows the probe-able lines of a given
user space function. Something that so far was only available in the
'perf probe' tool for kernel space functions:

  # ./perf probe -x perf --line map__load
  <map__load@/home/fedora/ksrc/linux-2.6/tools/perf/util/map.c:0>
        0  int map__load(struct map *map, symbol_filter_t filter)
        1  {
        2         const char *name = map->dso->long_name;
                  int nr;

        5         if (dso__loaded(map->dso, map->type))
        6                 return 0;

        8         nr = dso__load(map->dso, map, filter);
        9         if (nr < 0) {
       10                 if (map->dso->has_build_id) {

And this shows the available variables at the given line of the
function.

  # ./perf probe -x perf --vars map__load:8
  Available variables at map__load:8
          @<map__load+96>
                  char*   name
                  struct map*     map
                  symbol_filter_t filter
          @<map__find_symbol+112>
                  char*   name
                  symbol_filter_t filter
          @<map__find_symbol_by_name+136>
                  char*   name
                  symbol_filter_t filter
          @<map_groups__find_symbol_by_name+176>
                  char*   name
                  struct map*     map
                  symbol_filter_t filter

And lastly, we can now define probe(s) with all available
variables on the given line:

  # ./perf probe -x perf --add 'map__load:8 $vars'

  Added new events:
    probe_perf:map__load (on map__load:8 with $vars)
    probe_perf:map__load_1 (on map__load:8 with $vars)
    probe_perf:map__load_2 (on map__load:8 with $vars)
    probe_perf:map__load_3 (on map__load:8 with $vars)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e probe_perf:map__load_3 -aR sleep 1

  Changes from previous version:
   - Add examples in the patch description.
   - Use .text section start address and dwarf symbol address
     for calculating the offset of given symbol, instead of
     searching the symbol in symtab again.
     With this change, we can safely handle multiple local
     function instances (e.g. scnprintf in perf).

      perf probe: Expand given path to absolute path · 8a613d40
      Masami Hiramatsu authored 
      
Expand given path to absolute path in the option parser, except for a
module name.

Since realpath at later stage in processing several probe point, can be
called several times (even if currently doesn't, it can happen when we
expands the feature), it is waste of the performance.

Processing it once at the early stage can avoid that.

Changes from previous one:
 - Fix not to print null string.
 - Allocate memory for given path/module name everytime.
