perf tools: No need to cache the PMUs in ARM SPE auxtrace init routine

2020-07-29T21:02:38+00:00

- auxtrace_record__init() is called only once, so there is no point in using a static variable to cache the results of find_all_arm_spe_pmus(), make it local and free the results after use. - Another reason is, even though SPE is micro-architecture dependent, but so far it only supports "statistical-profiling-extension-v1" and we have no chance to use multiple SPE's PMU events in Perf command. So remove the useless check code to make it clear.

perf tools: Fix record failure when mixed with ARM SPE event

2020-07-29T21:02:38+00:00

When recording with cache-misses and arm_spe_x event, I found that it will just fail without showing any error info if i put cache-misses after 'arm_spe_x' event. [root@localhost 0620]# perf record -e cache-misses \ -e arm_spe_0/ts_enable=1,pct_enable=1,pa_enable=1,load_filter=1,jitter=1,store_filter=1,min_latency=0/ sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.067 MB perf.data ] [root@localhost 0620]# [root@localhost 0620]# perf record -e arm_spe_0/ts_enable=1,pct_enable=1,pa_enable=1,load_filter=1,jitter=1,store_filter=1,min_latency=0/ \ -e cache-misses sleep 1 [root@localhost 0620]# The current code can only work if the only event to be traced is an 'arm_spe_x', or if it is the last event to be specified. Otherwise the last event type will be checked against all the arm_spe_pmus[i]->types, none will match and an out of bound 'i' index will be used in arm_spe_recording_init(). We don't support concurrent multiple arm_spe_x events currently, that is checked in arm_spe_recording_options(), and it will show the relevant info. So add the check and record of the first found 'arm_spe_pmu' to fix this issue here.

perf cs-etm: Allow no CoreSight sink to be specified on command line

2020-06-22T19:28:09+00:00

Adjust the handling of the session sink selection to allow no sink to be selected on the command line. This then forwards the sink selection to the CoreSight infrastructure which will attempt to select a sink based on the default sink select priorities.

perf record: Respect --no-switch-events

2020-05-28T14:33:36+00:00

Context switch events are added automatically by Intel PT and Coresight. Make it possible to suppress them. That is useful for tracing the scheduler without the disturbance that the switch event processing creates. Example: Prerequisites: $ which perf ~/bin/perf $ sudo setcap "cap_sys_rawio,cap_sys_admin,cap_sys_ptrace,cap_syslog,cap_ipc_lock=ep" ~/bin/perf $ sudo chmod +r /proc/kcore Before: $ perf record --no-switch-events --kcore -a -e intel_pt//k -- sleep 0.001 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.938 MB perf.data ] $ perf script -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SWITCH | wc -l 572 After: $ perf record --no-switch-events --kcore -a -e intel_pt//k -- sleep 0.001 Warning: Intel Processor Trace decoding will not be possible except for kernel tracing! [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.838 MB perf.data ] $ perf script -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SWITCH | wc -l 0 $ sudo chmod go-r /proc/kcore $ sudo setcap -r ~/bin/perf Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Mathieu Poirier Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200528120859.21604-1-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf cs-etm: Fix endless record after being terminated

2020-02-18T13:13:29+00:00

In __cmd_record(), when receiving SIGINT(ctrl + c), a 'done' flag will be set and the event list will be disabled by evlist__disable() once. While in auxtrace_record.read_finish(), the related events will be enabled again, if they are continuous, the recording seems to be endless. If the cs_etm event is disabled, we don't enable it again here. Note: This patch is NOT tested since i don't have such a machine with coresight feature, but the code seems buggy same as arm-spe and intel-pt. Tester notes: Thanks for looping, Adrian. Applied this patch and tested with CoreSight on juno board, it works well.
