When no inlined frames could be found for a given address, we did not store this information anywhere. That means we potentially do the costly inliner lookup repeatedly for cases where we know it can never succeed. This patch makes dso__parse_addr_inlines always return a valid inline_node. It will be empty when no inliners are found. This enables us to cache the empty list in the DSO, thereby improving the performance when many addresses fail to find the inliners. For my trivial example, the performance impact is already quite significant: Before: ~~~~~ Performance counter stats for 'perf report --stdio --inline -g srcline -s srcline' (5 runs): 594.804032 task-clock (msec) # 0.998 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.07% ) 53 context-switches # 0.089 K/sec ( +- 4.09% ) 0 cpu-migrations # 0.000 K/sec ( +-100.00% ) 5,687 page-faults # 0.010 M/sec ( +- 0.02% ) 2,300,918,213 cycles # 3.868 GHz ( +- 0.09% ) 4,395,839,080 instructions # 1.91 insn per cycle ( +- 0.00% ) 939,177,205 branches # 1578.969 M/sec ( +- 0.00% ) 11,824,633 branch-misses # 1.26% of all branches ( +- 0.10% ) 0.596246531 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.07% ) ~~~~~ After: ~~~~~ Performance counter stats for 'perf report --stdio --inline -g srcline -s srcline' (5 runs): 113.111405 task-clock (msec) # 0.990 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.89% ) 29 context-switches # 0.255 K/sec ( +- 54.25% ) 0 cpu-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 5,380 page-faults # 0.048 M/sec ( +- 0.01% ) 432,378,779 cycles # 3.823 GHz ( +- 0.75% ) 670,057,633 instructions # 1.55 insn per cycle ( +- 0.01% ) 141,001,247 branches # 1246.570 M/sec ( +- 0.01% ) 2,346,845 branch-misses # 1.66% of all branches ( +- 0.19% ) 0.114222393 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.19% ) ~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Milian Wolff <milian.wolff@kdab.com> Reviewed-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jin Yao <yao.jin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171019113836.5548-3-milian.wolff@kdab.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
