2010-01-31perf lock: Introduce new tool "perf lock", for analyzing lock statisticsHitoshi Mitake
Adding new subcommand "perf lock" to perf. I have a lot of remaining ToDos, but for now perf lock can already provide minimal functionality for analyzing lock statistics.

2010-01-21perf buildid-cache: Add new command to manage build-id cacheArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
For now it just has operations to examine a given file, find its build-id and add or remove it to/from the cache. Useful, for instance, when adding binaries sent together with a perf.data file, so that we can add them to the cache and have the tools find it when resolving symbols. It'll also manage the size of the cache like 'ccache' does.

2009-11-16perf buildid-list: New plumbing commandArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
With this we can list the buildids in a perf.data file so that we can pipe them to other, distro specific tools that from the buildids can figure out separate packages (foo-debuginfo) where we can find the matching symtabs so that perf report can do its job.

2009-10-12perf: Add perf probe subcommand, a kprobe-event setup helperMasami Hiramatsu
Add perf probe subcommand that implements a kprobe-event setup helper to the perf command. This allows user to define kprobe events using C expressions (C line numbers, C function names, and C local variables). Usage ----- perf probe [<options>] -P 'PROBEDEF' [-P 'PROBEDEF' ...] -k, --vmlinux <file> vmlinux/module pathname -P, --probe <p|r:[GRP/]NAME FUNC[+OFFS][@SRC]|@SRC:LINE [ARG ...]> probe point definition, where p: kprobe probe r: kretprobe probe GRP: Group name (optional) NAME: Event name FUNC: Function name OFFS: Offset from function entry (in byte) SRC: Source code path LINE: Line number ARG: Probe argument (local variable name or kprobe-tracer argument format is supported.) Changes in v4: - Add _GNU_SOURCE macro for strndup(). Changes in v3: - Remove -r option because perf always be used for online kernel. - Check malloc/calloc results. Changes in v2: - Check synthesized string length. - Rename perf kprobe to perf probe. - Use spaces for separator and update usage comment. - Check error paths in parse_probepoint(). - Check optimized-out variables.

2009-09-19perf: Add the timechart toolArjan van de Ven
timechart is a tool to visualize what is going on in the system. The user makes a trace of what is going on with > perf record --timechart /usr/bin/some_command and then can turn the output of this into an svg file > perf timechart which then can be viewed with any SVG view; inkscape works well enough for me. The idea behind timechart is to create a "infinitely zoomable" picture; something that has high level information on a 1:1 zoom level, but which exposes more details every time you zoom into a specific area.
