2018-05-23perf machine: Synthesize and process mmap events for x86 PTI entry trampolinesAdrian Hunter1-0/+8
Like the kernel text, the location of x86 PTI entry trampolines must be recorded in the perf.data file. Like the kernel, synthesize a mmap event for that, and add processing for it.

perf_event__synthesize_sample() There is never a need to synthesize a 'swapped' sample, so all callers to perf_event__synthesize_sample() pass 'false' as the value to 'swapped'.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2017-10-03perf top: Implement multithreading for perf_event__synthesize_threadsKan Liang1-1/+2
The proc files which is sorted with alphabetical order are evenly assigned to several synthesize threads to be processed in parallel. For 'perf top', the threads number hard code to online CPU number. The following patch will introduce an option to set it. For other perf tools, the thread number is 1. Because the process function is not ready for multithreading, e.g. process_synthesized_event. This patch series only support event synthesize multithreading for 'perf top'. For other tools, it can be done separately later. With multithread applied, the total processing time can get up to 1.56x speedup on Knights Mill for 'perf top'. For specific single event processing, the processing time could increase because of the lock contention. So proc_map_timeout may need to be increased. Otherwise some proc maps will be truncated. Based on my test, increasing the proc_map_timeout has small impact on the total processing time. The total processing time still get 1.49x speedup on Knights Mill after increasing the proc_map_timeout. The patch itself doesn't increase the proc_map_timeout. Doesn't need to implement multithreading for per task monitoring, perf_event__synthesize_thread_map. It doesn't have performance issue.

2017-06-27perf script: Add 'synth' event type for synthesized eventsAdrian Hunter1-0/+3
Instruction trace decoders such as Intel PT may have additional information recorded in the trace. For example, Intel PT has power information and a there is a new instruction 'ptwrite' that can write a value into a PTWRITE trace packet. Such information may be associated with an IP and so can be treated as a sample (PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE). Custom data can be incorporated in the sample as raw_data (PERF_SAMPLE_RAW). However a means of identifying the raw data format is needed. That will be done by synthesizing an attribute for it. So add an attribute type for custom synthesized events. Different synthesized events will be identified by the attribute 'config'. Committer notes: Start those PERF_TYPE_ after the PMU range, i.e. after (INT_MAX + 1U), i.e. after perf_pmu_register() -> idr_alloc(end=0).

2017-05-03perf symbols: Accept symbols starting at address 0Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-2/+2
That is the case of _text on s390, and we have some functions that return an address, using address zero to report problems, oops. This would lead the symbol loading routines to not use "_text" as the reference relocation symbol, or the first symbol for the kernel, but use instead "_stext", that is at the same address on x86_64 and others, but not on s390: [acme@localhost perf-4.11.0-rc6]$ head -15 /proc/kallsyms 0000000000000000 T _text 0000000000000418 t iplstart 0000000000000800 T start 000000000000080a t .base 000000000000082e t .sk8x8 0000000000000834 t .gotr 0000000000000842 t .cmd 0000000000000846 t .parm 000000000000084a t .lowcase 0000000000010000 T startup 0000000000010010 T startup_kdump 0000000000010214 t startup_kdump_relocated 0000000000011000 T startup_continue 00000000000112a0 T _ehead 0000000000100000 T _stext [acme@localhost perf-4.11.0-rc6]$ Which in turn would make 'perf test vmlinux' to fail because it wouldn't find the symbols before "_stext" in kallsyms. Fix it by using the return value only for errors and storing the address, when the symbol is successfully found, in a provided pointer arg.

This patch decodes the 'partial' flag in AUX records and prints a warning to the user, so that they don't have to guess why their PT traces contain gaps (or missing altogether): Warning: AUX data had gaps in it 8 times out of 8! Are you running a KVM guest in the background? Trying to be even more helpful, we will detect if the user's kvm driver sets up exclusive VMX root mode for the entire lifespan of the kvm process: Reloading kvm_intel module with vmm_exclusive=0 will reduce the gaps to only guest's timeslices. Note however, that you'll still have gaps in cpu-wide traces even with vmm_exclusive=0, but the number of gaps will be below 100% (as opposed to the above example). Currently this is the only reason for partial records.

2016-10-24perf intel-pt/bts: Report instruction bytes and length in sampleAndi Kleen1-0/+3
Change Intel PT and BTS to pass up the length and the instruction bytes of the decoded or sampled instruction in the perf sample. The decoder already knows this information, we just need to pass it up. Since it is only a couple of movs it is not very expensive. Handle instruction cache too. Make sure ilen is always initialized.

Not needed at all, tools/perf/util/perf_regs.h, included via: #include "perf_regs.h" Should have a definition for PERF_REGS_MAX, and since this is dependent on HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT, fixes the build on powerpc, noticed by trying to cross compile this from ubuntu16.04 with a locally build libz & elfutils pair, since those are not available in multilib packages.

2016-03-31perf tools: Add time conversion eventAdrian Hunter1-0/+9
Intel PT uses the time members from the perf_event_mmap_page to convert between TSC and perf time. Due to a lack of foresight when Intel PT was implemented, those time members were recorded in the (implementation dependent) AUXTRACE_INFO event, the structure of which is generally inaccessible outside of the Intel PT decoder. However now the conversion between TSC and perf time is needed when processing a jitdump file when Intel PT has been used for tracing. So add a user event to record the time members. 'perf record' will synthesize the event if the information is available. And session processing will put a copy of the event on the session so that tools like 'perf inject' can easily access it.

2015-09-28perf session: Warn when AUX data has been lostAdrian Hunter1-0/+1
By default 'perf record' will postprocess the perf.data file to determine build-ids. When that happens, the number of lost perf events is displayed. Make that also happen for AUX events.

2015-09-23perf record: Synthesize COMM event for a command line workloadNamhyung Kim1-0/+5
When perf creates a new child to profile, the events are enabled on exec(). And in this case, it doesn't synthesize any event for the child since they'll be generated during exec(). But there's an window between the enabling and the event generation. It used to be overcome since samples are only in kernel (so we always have the map) and the comm is overridden by a later COMM event. However it won't work if events are processed and displayed before the COMM event overrides like in 'perf script'. This leads to those early samples (like native_write_msr_safe) not having a comm but pid (like ':15328'). So it needs to synthesize COMM event for the child explicitly before enabling so that it can have a correct comm. But at this time, the comm will be "perf" since it's not exec-ed yet.

2015-08-06perf tools: Add support for cycles, weight branch_info fieldAndi Kleen1-1/+2
cycles is a new branch_info field available on some CPUs that indicates the time deltas between branches in the LBR. Add a sort key and output code for the cycles to allow to display the basic block cycles individually in perf report. We also pass in the cycles for weight when LBRs are processed, which allows to get global and local weight, to get an estimate of the total cost. And also print the cycles information for perf report -D. I also added printing for the previously missing LBR flags (mispredict etc.) Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1437233094-12844-2-git-send-email-andi@firstfloor.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2015-07-24perf tools: Add new PERF_RECORD_SWITCH eventAdrian Hunter1-0/+12
Support processing of PERF_RECORD_SWITCH events and PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE events. There is a single tools callback for them both so that the tool must check the event type before using the extra members in PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE. There is still no way to select the events, though. That is added in a subsequest patch.

2015-06-20perf tools: Add time out to force stop proc map processingKan Liang1-0/+1
System wide sampling like 'perf top' or 'perf record -a' read all threads /proc/xxx/maps before sampling. If there are any threads which generating a keeping growing huge maps, perf will do infinite loop during synthesizing. Nothing will be sampled. This patch fixes this issue by adding per-thread timeout to force stop this kind of endless proc map processing. PERF_RECORD_MISC_PROC_MAP_PARSE_TIME_OUT is introduced to indicate that the mmap record are truncated by time out. User will get warning notification when truncated mmap records are detected.

2015-06-07perf tools: handle PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLESKan Liang1-0/+17
This patch modifies the perf tool to handle the new RECORD type, PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES. The number of lost-sample events is stored in .nr_events[PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES]. The exact number of samples which the kernel dropped is stored in total_lost_samples. When the percentage of dropped samples is greater than 5%, a warning is printed. Here are some examples: Eg 1, Recording different frequently-occurring events is safe with the patch. Only a very low drop rate is associated with such actions. $ perf record -e '{cycles:p,instructions:p}' -c 20003 --no-time ~/tchain ~/tchain $ perf report -D | tail SAMPLE events: 120243 MMAP2 events: 5 LOST_SAMPLES events: 24 FINISHED_ROUND events: 15 cycles:p stats: TOTAL events: 59348 SAMPLE events: 59348 instructions:p stats: TOTAL events: 60895 SAMPLE events: 60895 $ perf report --stdio --group # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # # # Total Lost Samples: 24 # # Samples: 120K of event 'anon group { cycles:p, instructions:p }' # Event count (approx.): 24048600000 # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ................ ........... ................ .................................. # 99.74% 99.86% tchain_edit tchain_edit [.] f3 0.09% 0.02% tchain_edit tchain_edit [.] f2 0.04% 0.00% tchain_edit [kernel.vmlinux] [k] ixgbe_read_reg Eg 2, Recording the same thing multiple times can lead to high drop rate, but it is not a useful configuration. $ perf record -e '{cycles:p,cycles:p}' -c 20003 --no-time ~/tchain Warning: Processed 600592 samples and lost 99.73% samples!
