We now use AK::Error and AK::ErrorOr<T> in both kernel and userspace!
This was a slightly tedious refactoring that took a long time, so it's
not unlikely that some bugs crept in.
Nevertheless, it does pass basic functionality testing, and it's just
real nice to finally see the same pattern in all contexts. :^)

There's a ton of things inside to_json() that could go wrong but we
don't know about it yet. One step at a time.
|

This commit moves the KResult and KResultOr objects to Kernel/API to
signify that they may now be freely used by userspace code at points
where a syscall-related error result is to be expected. It also exposes
KResult and KResultOr to the global namespace to make it nicer to use
for userspace code.
|
|
Making userspace provide a global string ID was silly, and made the API
extremely difficult to use correctly in a global profiling context.
Instead, simply make the kernel do the string ID allocation for us.
This also allows us to convert the string storage to a Vector in the
kernel (and an array in the JSON profile data.)
|
|
This syscall allows userspace to register a keyed string that appears in
a new "strings" JSON object in profile output.
This will be used to add custom strings to profile signposts. :^)
|
|
This event will be used by userspace programs wanting to mark
interesting high-level events in the profile. :^)
|
|
|
|
|
|
This adds the -t command-line argument for the profile tool. Using this
argument you can filter which event types you want in your profile.
|

We can lose profiling timer events for a few reasons, for example
disabled interrupts or system slowness. This accounts for lost
time between CPU samples by adding a field lost_samples to each
profiling event which tracks how many samples were lost immediately
preceding the event.
|
|
The current method of emitting performance events requires a bit of
boiler plate at every invocation, as well as having to ignore the
return code which isn't used outside of the perf event syscall. This
change attempts to clean that up by exposing high level API's that
can be used around the code base.

This turns the perfcore format into more a log than it was before,
which lets us properly log process, thread and region
creation/destruction. This also makes it unnecessary to dump the
process' regions every time it is scheduled like we did before.
Incidentally this also fixes 'profile -c' because we previously ended
up incorrectly dumping the parent's region map into the profile data.
Log-based mmap support enables profiling shared libraries which
are loaded at runtime, e.g. via dlopen().
This enables profiling both the parent and child process for
programs which use execve(). Previously we'd discard the profiling
data for the old process.
The Profiler tool has been updated to not treat thread IDs as
process IDs anymore. This enables support for processes with more
than one thread. Also, there's a new widget to filter which
process should be displayed.

Even just profiling Piano hits the previous limit.

The perfcore file format was previously limited to a single process
since the pid/executable/regions data was top-level in the JSON.
This patch moves the process-specific data into a top-level array
named "processes" and we now add entries for each process that has
been sampled during the profile run.
This makes it possible to see samples from multiple threads when
viewing a perfcore file with Profiler. This is extremely cool! :^)
|
|
The superuser can now call sys$profiling_enable() with PID -1 to enable
profiling of all running threads in the system. The perf events are
collected in a global PerformanceEventBuffer (currently 32 MiB in size.)
The events can be accessed via /proc/profile
|
|
If we can't allocate a PerformanceEventBuffer to store the profiling
events, we now fail sys$profiling_enable() and sys$perf_event()
with ENOMEM instead of carrying on with a broken buffer.
|
|
Start capturing the sample stacks at the EIP/EBP of the pre-empted
thread instead of capturing EBP in the sampling function itself.
|
|
This patch merges the profiling functionality in the kernel with the
performance events mechanism. A profiler sample is now just another
perf event, rather than a dedicated thing.
Since perf events were already per-process, this now makes profiling
per-process as well.
Processes with perf events would already write out a perfcore.PID file
to the current directory on death, but since we may want to profile
a process and then let it continue running, recorded perf events can
now be accessed at any time via /proc/PID/perf_events.
This patch also adds information about process memory regions to the
perfcore JSON format. This removes the need to supply a core dump to
the Profiler app for symbolication, and so the "profiler coredump"
mechanism is removed entirely.
There's still a hard limit of 4MB worth of perf events per process,
so this is by no means a perfect final design, but it's a nice step
forward for both simplicity and stability.

Compared to version 10 this fixes a bunch of formatting issues, mostly
around structs/classes with attributes like [[gnu::packed]], and
incorrect insertion of spaces in parameter types ("T &"/"T &&").
I also removed a bunch of // clang-format off/on and FIXME comments that
are no longer relevant - on the other hand it tried to destroy a couple of
neatly formatted comments, so I had to add some as well.

KBufferBuilder::build() now returns an OwnPtr<KBuffer> and can fail.
Clients of the API have been updated to handle that situation.
|

This compiles, and contains exactly the same bugs as before.
The regex 'FIXME: PID/' should reveal all markers that I left behind, including:
- Incomplete conversion
- Issues or things that look fishy
- Actual bugs that will go wrong during runtime
|
|
Use this instead of uintptr_t throughout the codebase. This makes it
possible to pass a FlatPtr to something that has u32 and u64 overloads.

This patch introduces sys$perf_event() with two event types:
- PERF_EVENT_MALLOC
- PERF_EVENT_FREE
After the first call to sys$perf_event(), a process will begin keeping
these events in a buffer. When the process dies, that buffer will be
written out to "perfcore" in the current directory unless that filename
is already taken.
This is probably not the best way to do this, but it's a start and will
make it possible to start doing memory allocation profiling. :^)
