Subject: [PATCH v1 0/6] Add io_dir to avoid memory overhead from opendir
Date: Wed,  6 Dec 2023 21:04:27 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231207050433.1426834-1-irogers@google.com> (raw)

glibc's opendir allocates a minimum of 32kb, when called recursively
for a directory tree the memory consumption can add up - nearly 300kb
during perf start-up when processing modules. Add a stack allocated
variant of readdir sized a little more than 1kb

This was previously part of the memory saving change set:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20231127220902.1315692-1-irogers@google.com/
It is separated here and a feature check and syscall workaround for
missing getdents64 added.

Ian Rogers (6):
  tools build: Add a feature test for getdents64
  tools lib api: Add io_dir an allocation free readdir alternative
  perf maps: Switch modules tree walk to io_dir__readdir
  perf pmu: Switch to io_dir__readdir
  perf header: Switch mem topology to io_dir__readdir
  perf events: Remove scandir in thread synthesis
