x86/insn: perf tools: Add new ptwrite instruction

2017-06-27T14:58:04+00:00

Add ptwrite to the op code map and the perf tools new instructions test. To run the test: $ tools/perf/perf test "x86 ins" 39: Test x86 instruction decoder - new instructions : Ok Or to see the details: $ tools/perf/perf test -v "x86 ins" 2>&1 | grep ptwrite For information about ptwrite, refer the Intel SDM.

perf intel-pt: Add default config for pass-through branch enable

2017-06-21T14:35:48+00:00

Branch tracing is enabled by default, so a fake config bit called 'pt' (pass-through) was added to allow the 'branch enable' bit to have affect. Add default config 'pt,branch' which will allow users to disable branch tracing using 'branch=0' instead of having to specify 'pt,branch=0'.

perf intel-pt/bts: Remove unused SAMPLE_SIZE defines and bts priv array

2017-06-19T18:27:09+00:00

These defines were probably dragged in from sampling support in earlier patches. They can be put back when needed.

perf tools: Use just forward declarations for struct thread where possible

2017-04-24T16:43:35+00:00

Removing various instances of unnecessary includes, reducing the maze of header dependencies. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-hwu6eyuok9pc57alookyzmsf@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Remove poll.h and wait.h from util.h

2017-04-24T16:43:34+00:00

Not needed in this header, added to the places that need poll(), wait() and a few other prototypes. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-i39c7b6xmo1vwd9wxp6fmkl0@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Add signal.h to places using its definitions

2017-04-20T16:22:43+00:00

And remove it from util.h, disentangling it a bit more. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-2zg9s5nx90yde64j3g4z2uhk@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Include errno.h where needed

2017-04-19T16:01:51+00:00

Removing it from util.h, part of an effort to disentangle the includes hell, that makes changes to util.h or something included by it to cause a complete rebuild of the tools.

perf trace: Beautify statx syscall 'flag' and 'mask' arguments

To test it, build samples/statx/test_statx, which I did as: $ make headers_install $ cc -I ~/git/linux/usr/include samples/statx/test-statx.c -o /tmp/statx And then use perf trace on it: # perf trace -e statx /tmp/statx /etc/passwd statx(/etc/passwd) = 0 results=7ff Size: 3496 Blocks: 8 IO Block: 4096 regular file Device: fd:00 Inode: 280156 Links: 1 Access: (0644/-rw-r--r--) Uid: 0 Gid: 0 Access: 2017-03-29 16:01:01.650073438-0300 Modify: 2017-03-10 16:25:14.156479354-0300 Change: 2017-03-10 16:25:14.171479328-0300 0.000 ( 0.007 ms): statx/30648 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: 0x7ef503f4, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7fff7ef4eb10) = 0 # Using the test-stat.c options to change the mask: # perf trace -e statx /tmp/statx -O /etc/passwd > /dev/null 0.000 ( 0.008 ms): statx/30745 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: 0x3a0753f4, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffd3a0735c0) = 0 # # perf trace -e statx /tmp/statx -A /etc/passwd > /dev/null 0.000 ( 0.010 ms): statx/30757 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: 0xa94e63f4, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|NO_AUTOMOUNT, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffea94e49d0) = 0 # # trace --no-inherit -e statx /tmp/statx -F /etc/passwd > /dev/null 0.000 ( 0.011 ms): statx(dfd: CWD, filename: 0x3b02d3f3, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_FORCE_SYNC, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffd3b02c850) = 0 # # trace --no-inherit -e statx /tmp/statx -F -L /etc/passwd > /dev/null 0.000 ( 0.008 ms): statx(dfd: CWD, filename: 0x15cff3f3, flags: STATX_FORCE_SYNC, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7fff15cfdda0) = 0 # # trace --no-inherit -e statx /tmp/statx -D -O /etc/passwd > /dev/null 0.000 ( 0.009 ms): statx(dfd: CWD, filename: 0xfa37f3f3, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_DONT_SYNC, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffffa37da20) = 0 # Adding a probe to get the filename collected as well: # perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=result->name:string' Added new event: probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=result->name:string) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1 # trace --no-inherit -e statx /tmp/statx -D -O /etc/passwd > /dev/null 0.169 ( 0.007 ms): statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/passwd, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_DONT_SYNC, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffda9bf50f0) = 0 # Same technique could be used to collect and beautify the result put in the 'buffer' argument.

perf/sdt/x86: Move OP parser to tools/perf/arch/x86/

2017-03-28T15:25:30+00:00

SDT marker argument is in N@OP format. N is the size of argument and OP is the actual assembly operand. OP is arch dependent component and hence it's parsing logic also should be placed under tools/perf/arch/.
