perf report: Drop cycles 0 for LBR print

2017-03-28T19:20:59+00:00

For some platforms, for example Broadwell, it doesn't support cycles for LBR. But the perf always prints cycles:0, it's not necessary. The patch refactors the LBR info print code and drops the cycles:0. For example: perf report --branch-history --no-children --stdio On Broadwell: --0.91%--__random_r random_r.c:394 (iterations:2) __random_r random_r.c:360 (predicted:0.0%) __random_r random_r.c:380 (predicted:0.0%) __random_r random_r.c:357 On Skylake: --1.07%--main div.c:39 (predicted:52.4% cycles:1 iterations:17) main div.c:44 (predicted:52.4% cycles:1) main div.c:42 (cycles:2) compute_flag div.c:28 (cycles:2) compute_flag div.c:27 (cycles:1) rand rand.c:28 (cycles:1) rand rand.c:28 (cycles:1) __random random.c:298 (cycles:1) __random random.c:297 (cycles:1) __random random.c:295 (cycles:1) __random random.c:295 (cycles:1) __random random.c:295 (cycles:1) Signed-off-by: Yao Jin Reviewed-by: Andi Kleen Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Kan Liang Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1489046786-10061-1-git-send-email-yao.jin@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf report: Enable sorting by srcline as key

2017-03-27T15:13:28+00:00

Often it is interesting to know how costly a given source line is in total. Previously, one had to build these sums manually based on all addresses that pointed to the same source line. This patch introduces srcline as a sort key, which will do the aggregation for us. Paired with the recent addition of showing inline frames, this makes perf report much more useful for many C++ work loads. The following shows the new feature in action. First, let's show the status quo output when we sort by address. The result contains many hist entries that generate the same output: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ $ perf report --stdio --inline -g address # Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ........ ............ ................... ......................................... # 99.89% 35.34% cpp-inlining cpp-inlining [.] main | |--64.55%--main complex:655 | /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/complex:664 (inline) | | | |--60.31%--hypot +20 | | | | | |--8.52%--__hypot_finite +273 | | | | | |--7.32%--__hypot_finite +411 ... --35.34%--_start +4194346 __libc_start_main +241 | |--6.65%--main random.tcc:3326 | /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1809 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1818 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:185 (inline) | |--2.70%--main random.tcc:3326 | /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1809 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1818 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:185 (inline) | |--1.69%--main random.tcc:3326 | /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1809 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1818 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:185 (inline) ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ With this patch and `-g srcline` we instead get the following output: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ $ perf report --stdio --inline -g srcline # Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ........ ............ ................... ......................................... # 99.89% 35.34% cpp-inlining cpp-inlining [.] main | |--64.55%--main complex:655 | /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/complex:664 (inline) | | | |--64.02%--hypot | | | | | --59.81%--__hypot_finite | | | --0.53%--cabs | --35.34%--_start __libc_start_main | |--12.48%--main random.tcc:3326 | /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1809 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1818 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:185 (inline) ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Milian Wolff Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Yao Jin Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170318214928.9047-1-milian.wolff@kdab.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf callchain: Reference count maps

2017-01-31T19:19:06+00:00

If dso__load_kcore frees all of the existing maps, but one has already been attached to a callchain cursor node, then we can get a SIGSEGV in any function that happens to try to use this invalid cursor. Use the existing map refcount mechanism to forestall cleanup of a map until the cursor iterates past the node.

perf report: Calculate and return the branch flag counting

2016-11-14T16:25:58+00:00

Create some branch counters in per callchain list entry. Each counter is for a branch flag. For example, predicted_count counts all the *predicted* branches. The counters get updated by processing the callchain cursor nodes. It also provides functions to retrieve or print the values of counters in callchain list. Besides the counting for branch flags, it also counts and returns the average number of iterations.
