From 023695d96ee06f36cf5014e286edcd623e9fb847 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephane Eranian Date: Mon, 14 Feb 2011 11:20:01 +0200 Subject: perf tool: Add cgroup support This patch adds the ability to filter monitoring based on container groups (cgroups) for both perf stat and perf record. It is possible to monitor multiple cgroup in parallel. There is one cgroup per event. The cgroups to monitor are passed via a new -G option followed by a comma separated list of cgroup names. The cgroup filesystem has to be mounted. Given a cgroup name, the perf tool finds the corresponding directory in the cgroup filesystem and opens it. It then passes that file descriptor to the kernel. Example: $ perf stat -B -a -e cycles:u,cycles:u,cycles:u -G test1,,test2 -- sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1': 2,368,667,414 cycles test1 2,369,661,459 cycles cycles test2 1.001856890 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra LKML-Reference: <4d590290.825bdf0a.7d0a.4890@mx.google.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- tools/perf/util/evsel.c | 16 ++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'tools/perf/util/evsel.c') diff --git a/tools/perf/util/evsel.c b/tools/perf/util/evsel.c index 211063eed474..c974e08d07ab 100644 --- a/tools/perf/util/evsel.c +++ b/tools/perf/util/evsel.c @@ -85,6 +85,7 @@ void perf_evsel__exit(struct perf_evsel *evsel) void perf_evsel__delete(struct perf_evsel *evsel) { perf_evsel__exit(evsel); + close_cgroup(evsel->cgrp); free(evsel); } @@ -163,21 +164,32 @@ static int __perf_evsel__open(struct perf_evsel *evsel, struct cpu_map *cpus, struct thread_map *threads, bool group, bool inherit) { int cpu, thread; + unsigned long flags = 0; + int pid = -1; if (evsel->fd == NULL && perf_evsel__alloc_fd(evsel, cpus->nr, threads->nr) < 0) return -1; + if (evsel->cgrp) { + flags = PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP; + pid = evsel->cgrp->fd; + } + for (cpu = 0; cpu < cpus->nr; cpu++) { int group_fd = -1; evsel->attr.inherit = (cpus->map[cpu] < 0) && inherit; for (thread = 0; thread < threads->nr; thread++) { + + if (!evsel->cgrp) + pid = threads->map[thread]; + FD(evsel, cpu, thread) = sys_perf_event_open(&evsel->attr, - threads->map[thread], + pid, cpus->map[cpu], - group_fd, 0); + group_fd, flags); if (FD(evsel, cpu, thread) < 0) goto out_close; -- cgit v1.2.3
