In $ perf diff -c ratio color the Ratio column using value_color_snprintf(), a new function that operates exactly like percent_color_snprintf(). At first glance, it looks like percent_color_snprintf() can be turned into a non-variadic function simplifying things; however, 53805eca (perf tools: Remove cast of non-variadic function to variadic, 2013-10-31) explains why it needs to be a variadic function.

perf stat has a --delay option to delay measuring the workload. This is useful to skip measuring the startup phase of the program, which is often very different from the main workload. The same is useful for perf record when sampling. --no-delay was already taken, so add a --initial-delay to perf record too. -D was already taken for record, so there is only a long option. v2: Don't disable group members (Namhyung Kim) v3: port to latest perf/core rename to --initial-delay to avoid conflict with --no-delay Signed-off-by:Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by:

Test one of the main kernel Makefile targets to generate a perf sources tarball suitable for build outside the full kernel sources. This is to test that the tools/perf/MANIFEST file lists all the files needed to be in such tarball, which sometimes gets broken when we move files around, like when we made some files that were in tools/perf/ available to other tools/ codebases by moving it to tools/include/, etc. Now everytime we use 'make -C tools/perf -f tests/make' this test will be performed, helping detect such problems earlier in the devel cycle.

When a tool uses perf_evlist__start_workload and the supplied workload fails (e.g.: its binary wasn't found), perror was being used to print the error reason. This is undesirable, as the caller may be a GUI, when it wants to have total control of the error reporting process. So move to using sigaction(SA_SIGINFO) + siginfo_t->sa_value->sival_int to communicate to the caller the errno and let it print it using the UI of its choosing.

Unlike recent modern userspace API such as: epoll_create1 (EPOLL_CLOEXEC), eventfd (EFD_CLOEXEC), fanotify_init (FAN_CLOEXEC), inotify_init1 (IN_CLOEXEC), signalfd (SFD_CLOEXEC), timerfd_create (TFD_CLOEXEC), or the venerable general purpose open (O_CLOEXEC), perf_event_open() syscall lack a flag to atomically set FD_CLOEXEC (eg. close-on-exec) flag on file descriptor it returns to userspace. The present patch adds a PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC flag to allow perf_event_open() syscall to atomically set close-on-exec. Having this flag will enable userspace to remove the file descriptor from the list of file descriptors being inherited across exec, without the need to call fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) and the associated race condition between the current thread and another thread calling fork(2) then execve(2).

This patch adds support for the Intel RAPL energy counter PP1 (Power Plane 1). On client processors, it usually corresponds to the energy consumption of the builtin graphic card. That is why the sysfs event is called energy-gpu. New event: - name: power/energy-gpu/ - code: event=0x4 - unit: 2^-32 Joules On processors without graphics, this should count 0. The patch only enables this event on client processors. Reviewed-by:

This patch fixes a problem with the initialization of the struct perf_event active_entry field. It is defined inside an anonymous union and was initialized in perf_event_alloc() using INIT_LIST_HEAD(). However at that time, we do not know whether the event is going to use active_entry or hlist_entry (SW). Or at last, we don't want to make that determination there. The problem is that hlist and list_head are not initialized the same way. One is okay with NULL (from kzmalloc), the other needs to pointers to point to self. This patch resolves this problem by dropping the union. This will avoid problems later on, if someone starts using active_entry or hlist_entry without verifying that they actually overlap. This also solves the initialization problem. Signed-off-by:
