- Correctly handle error code to detect when no buffer available.

# 226514 18-Oct-2011 fabient

Add a flush of the current PMC log buffer before displaying the next top.

As the underlying block is 4KB if the PMC throughput is low the measurement
will be reported on the next tick. pmcstat(8) use the modified flush API to
reclaim current buffer before displaying next top.

# 224698 07-Aug-2011 attilio

Convert pmcstat about using cpuset_t rather than relying on plain 32 bit
ints. That fixes a first bug where pmcstat wasn't using the old
cpumask_t interface and now also brings the full support for more
than 32 cpus.

While here, make the functions pmcstat_clone_event_descriptor() and
pmcstat_get_cpumask() private to pmcstat.

The problem of assuming cpu dense masks still persists and should be
eventually fixed, as reported by avg.

# 169069 27-Apr-2007 jkoshy

MFP4: Enhancements to pmcstat(8):

- Allow the "-t" option to take a regular expression naming command
line processes to attach process PMCs to.

- Update the manual page and add an example showing the use of the
new functionality.

- Update the (c) year on the affected source files.


# 168949 22-Apr-2007 jkoshy

MFP4: Enhancements and bug-fixes to pmcstat(8):

- The '-c' option now takes a comma-separated list of CPU
numbers, or a literal '*' denoting all CPUs in the system.
Subsequent system PMCs are allocated on the CPUs so specified.

Change the default behaviour to allocate system PMCs on all CPUs,
not just CPU 0.

Update the manual page and add an example of how to use the new
functionality.

- Attach PMCs to a (commandline) child process more reliably. This
fixes a long standing bug in counting events incurred by short-lived
processes.


# 168927 21-Apr-2007 jkoshy

takes a host:port specification.
- Update the manual page and add an example showing how log

current inability to process logs in cross-platform manner.
- Have pmcstat_open_log() call err(3) directly in case
of an error; this simplifies error handling in its caller.

# 157144 26-Mar-2006 jkoshy

MFP4: Support for profiling dynamically loaded objects.

Kernel changes:

Inform hwpmc of executable objects brought into the system by
kldload() and mmap(), and of their removal by kldunload() and
munmap(). A helper function linker_hwpmc_list_objects() has been
added to "sys/kern/kern_linker.c" and is used by hwpmc to retrieve
the list of currently loaded kernel modules.

The unused `MAPPINGCHANGE' event has been deprecated in favour
of separate `MAP_IN' and `MAP_OUT' events; this change reduces
space wastage in the log.

Bump the hwpmc's ABI version to "2.0.00". Teach hwpmc(4) to
handle the map change callbacks.

Change the default per-cpu sample buffer size to hold
32 samples (up from 16).

Increment __FreeBSD_version.

libpmc(3) changes:

Update libpmc(3) to deal with the new events in the log file; bring
the pmclog(3) manual page in sync with the code.

pmcstat(8) changes:

Introduce new options to pmcstat(8): "-r" (root fs path), "-M"
(mapfile name), "-q"/"-v" (verbosity control). Option "-k" now
takes a kernel directory as its argument but will also work with
the older invocation syntax.

Rework string handling in pmcstat(8) to use an opaque type for
interned strings. Clean up ELF parsing code and add support for
tracking dynamic object mappings reported by a v2.0.00 hwpmc(4).

Report statistics at the end of a log conversion run depending
on the requested verbosity level.

# 147708 30-Jun-2005 jkoshy

MFP4:

- pmcstat(8) gprof output mode fixes:

lib/libpmc/pmclog.{c,h}, sys/sys/pmclog.h:
+ Add a 'is_usermode' field to the PMCLOG_PCSAMPLE event
+ Add an 'entryaddr' field to the PMCLOG_PROCEXEC event,
so that pmcstat(8) can determine where the runtime loader
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1 is getting loaded.

sys/kern/kern_exec.c:
+ Use a local struct to group the entry address of the image being
exec()'ed and the process credential changed flag to the exec
handling hook inside hwpmc(4).

usr.sbin/pmcstat/*:
+ Support "-k kernelpath", "-D sampledir".
+ Implement the ELF bits of 'gmon.out' profile generation in a new
file "pmcstat_log.c". Move all log related functions to this
file.
+ Move local definitions and prototypes to "pmcstat.h"

- Other bug fixes:
+ lib/libpmc/pmclog.c: correctly handle EOF in pmclog_read().
+ sys/dev/hwpmc_mod.c: unconditionally log a PROCEXIT event to all
attached PMCs when a process exits.
+ sys/sys/pmc.h: correct a function prototype.
+ Improve usage checks in pmcstat(8).

# 147191 09-Jun-2005 jkoshy

MFP4:

- Implement sampling modes and logging support in hwpmc(4).

- Separate MI and MD parts of hwpmc(4) and allow sharing of
PMC implementations across different architectures.
Add support for P4 (EMT64) style PMCs to the amd64 code.

- New pmcstat(8) options: -E (exit time counts) -W (counts
every context switch), -R (print log file).

- pmc(3) API changes, improve our ability to keep ABI compatibility
in the future. Add more 'alias' names for commonly used events.

- bug fixes & documentation.


# 145796 02-May-2005 jkoshy

Neaten usage message.


# 145774 01-May-2005 jkoshy

Add convenience APIs pmc_width() and pmc_capabilities() to -lpmc.
Have pmcstat(8) and pmccontrol(8) use these APIs.

Return PMC class-related constants (PMC widths and capabilities)
with the OP GETCPUINFO call leaving OP PMCINFO to return only the
dynamic information associated with a PMC (i.e., whether enabled,
owner pid, reload count etc.).

Allow pmc_read() (i.e., OPS PMCRW) on active self-attached PMCs to
get upto-date values from hardware since we can guarantee that the
hardware is running the correct PMC at the time of the call.

Bug fixes:
- (x86 class processors) Fix a bug that prevented an RDPMC
instruction from being recognized as permitted till after the
attached process had context switched out and back in again after
a pmc_start() call.

Tighten the rules for using RDPMC class instructions: a GETMSR
OP is now allowed only after an OP ATTACH has been done by the
PMC's owner to itself. OP GETMSR is not allowed for PMCs that
track descendants, for PMCs attached to processes other than
their owner processes.

- (P4/HTT processors only) Fix a bug that caused the MI and MD
layers to get out of sync. Add a new MD operation 'get_config()'
as part of this fix.

- Allow multiple system-mode PMCs at the same row-index but on
different CPUs to be allocated.

- Reject allocation of an administratively disabled PMC.

Misc. code cleanups and refactoring. Improve a few comments.
