# 259065 07-Dec-2013 gjb

- Copy stable/10 (r259064) to releng/10.0 as part of the
10.0-RELEASE cycle.
- Update __FreeBSD_version [1]
- Set branch name to -RC1

[1] 10.0-CURRENT __FreeBSD_version value ended at '55', so
start releng/10.0 at '100' so the branch is started with
a value ending in zero.

# 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.

# 210797 03-Aug-2010 fabient

- Do not use the runtime mask when logfile is specified.
- Revert the fix on rtld path that is not necessary.

# 203790 11-Feb-2010 fabient

- Reorganize code in 'plugin' to share log processing.
- Kcachegrind (calltree) support with assembly/source
code mapping and call count estimator (-F).
- Top mode for calltree and callgraph plugin (-T).

# 185322 25-Nov-2008 attilio

Add the -m option to pmcstat.
This option prints the list of sampled PCs along with the function name,
the start and end addresses of this where their live within.

# 174396 07-Dec-2007 jkoshy

Introduce pmcstat(8) changes for summarizing hwpmc(4) callchain records in
in textual form and in gmon.out format.

Update manual page.

# 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.


# 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.

# 147863 09-Jul-2005 jkoshy

Fix a bug that affected on-the-fly gmon.out file generation.

Approved by: re (scottl)


# 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).
