perf build: Use libtraceevent from the system

2022-12-14T14:16:12+00:00

Remove the LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC and LIBTRACEFS_DYNAMIC make command line variables. If libtraceevent isn't installed or NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 is passed to the build, don't compile in libtraceevent and libtracefs support. This also disables CONFIG_TRACE that controls "perf trace". CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT is used to control enablement in Build/Makefiles, HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is used in C code. Without HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT tracepoints are disabled and as such the commands kmem, kwork, lock, sched and timechart are removed. The majority of commands continue to work including "perf test". Committer notes: Fixed up a tools/perf/util/Build reject and added: #include to tools/perf/util/scripting-engines/trace-event-perl.c.

Building with NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 uncovered some more build failures: - Make building of data-convert-bt.c to CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y - perf-$(CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT) += scripts/ - bpf_kwork.o needs also to be dependent on CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y - The python binding needed some fixups and util/trace-event.c can't be built and linked with the python binding shared object, so remove it in tools/perf/util/setup.py and exclude it from the list of dependencies in the python/perf.so Makefile.perf target. Building without libtraceevent-devel installed uncovered more build failures: - The python binding tools/perf/util/python.c was assuming that traceevent/parse-events.h was always available, which was the case when we defaulted to using the in-kernel tools/lib/traceevent/ files, now we need to enclose it under ifdef HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT, just like the other parts of it that deal with tracepoints. - We have to ifdef the rules in the Build files with CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y to build builtin-trace.c and tools/perf/trace/beauty/ as we only ifdef setting CONFIG_TRACE=y when setting NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 in the make command line, not when we don't detect libtraceevent-devel installed in the system. Simplification here to avoid these two ways of disabling builtin-trace.c and not having CONFIG_TRACE=y when libtraceevent-devel isn't installed is the clean way. From Athira: tools/perf/arch/powerpc/util/Build -perf-y += kvm-stat.o +perf-$(CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT) += kvm-stat.o Then, ditto for arm64 and s390, detected by container cross build tests. - s/390 uses test__checkevent_tracepoint() that is now only available if HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is defined, enclose the callsite with ifder HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT. Also from Athira: With this change, I could successfully compile in these environment: - Without libtraceevent-devel installed - With libtraceevent-devel installed - With “make NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1” Then, finally rename CONFIG_TRACEEVENT to CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT for consistency with other libraries detected in tools/perf/.

perf stat: Pass through 'struct outstate'

2022-11-24T12:40:37+00:00

Now most of the print functions take a pointer to the struct outstate. We have one in the evlist__print_counters() and pass it through the child functions.

perf intel-pt: Fix system_wide dummy event for hybrid

2022-10-15T13:13:16+00:00

User space tasks can migrate between CPUs, so when tracing selected CPUs, system-wide sideband is still needed, however evlist->core.has_user_cpus is not set in the hybrid case, so check the target cpu_list instead.

perf mem/c2c: Add load store event mappings for AMD

2022-10-06T19:30:06+00:00

The 'perf mem' and 'perf c2c' tools are wrappers around 'perf record' with mem load/ store events. IBS tagged load/store sample provides most of the information needed for these tools. Wire in the "ibs_op//" event as mem-ldst event for AMD. There are some limitations though: Only load/store micro-ops provide mem/c2c information. Whereas, IBS does not have a way to choose a particular type of micro-op to tag. This results in many non-LS micro-ops being tagged which appear as N/A in the perf report. IBS, being an uncore pmu from kernel point of view[1], does not support per process monitoring. Thus, perf mem/c2c on AMD are currently supported in per-cpu mode only. Example: $ sudo perf mem record -- -c 10000 ^C[ perf record: Woken up 227 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 58.760 MB perf.data (836978 samples) ] $ sudo perf mem report -F mem,sample,snoop Samples: 836K of event 'ibs_op//', Event count (approx.): 8418762 Memory access Samples Snoop N/A 700620 N/A L1 hit 126675 N/A L2 hit 424 N/A L3 hit 664 HitM L3 hit 10 N/A Local RAM hit 2 N/A Remote RAM (1 hop) hit 8558 N/A Remote Cache (1 hop) hit 3 N/A Remote Cache (1 hop) hit 2 HitM Remote Cache (2 hops) hit 10 HitM Remote Cache (2 hops) hit 6 N/A Uncached hit 4 N/A $ [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220829113347.295-1-ravi.bangoria@amd.com Signed-off-by: Ravi Bangoria Acked-by: Jiri Olsa Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Ali Saidi Cc: Ananth Narayan Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: Dave Hansen Cc: H.

perf tools: Add evlist__add_sched_switch()

2022-10-06T11:03:53+00:00

Add a help to create a system-wide sched_switch event. One merit is that it sets the system-wide bit before adding it to evlist so that the libperf can handle the cpu and thread maps correctly.
