Kernel: Start working on a syscall for logging performance events 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. :^)

Kernel+Profiler: Make profiling per-process and without core dumps 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.

Kernel+Profiler: Capture metadata about all profiled processes 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! :^)

Kernel: Add PerformanceManager static class, move perf event APIs there 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.

Kernel+Profiler: Make profiling per-process and without core dumps 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.

Kernel+Profiler: Improve profiling subsystem 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.

Kernel+Profiler: Track lost time between profiler timer ticks 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.

Kernel+Profiler: Capture metadata about all profiled processes 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! :^)
