perf script: Print Intel ptwrite value as a string if it is ASCII

2022-05-17T14:56:02+00:00

It can be convenient to put a string value into a ptwrite payload as a quick and easy way to identify what is being printed. To make that useful, if the Intel ptwrite payload value contains only printable ASCII characters padded with NULLs, then print it also as a string. Using the example program from the "Emulated PTWRITE" section of tools/perf/Documentation/perf-intel-pt.txt: $ echo -n "Hello" | od -t x8 0000000 0000006f6c6c6548 0000005 $ perf record -e intel_pt//u ./eg_ptw 0x0000006f6c6c6548 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.016 MB perf.data ] $ perf script --itrace=ew eg_ptw 35563 [005] 18256.087338: ptwrite: IP: 0 payload: 0x6f6c6c6548 Hello 55e764db5196 perf_emulate_ptwrite+0x16 (/home/user/eg_ptw) $ Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter Cc: Jiri Olsa Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220509152400.376613-3-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf script: Always allow field 'data_src' for auxtrace

2022-04-22T21:39:34+00:00

If use command 'perf script -F,+data_src' to dump memory samples with Arm SPE trace data, it reports error: # perf script -F,+data_src Samples for 'dummy:u' event do not have DATA_SRC attribute set. Cannot print 'data_src' field. This is because the 'dummy:u' event is absent DATA_SRC bit in its sample type, so if a file contains AUX area tracing data then always allow field 'data_src' to be selected as an option for perf script.

perf tools: Enhance the matching of sub-commands abbreviations

2022-03-26T13:55:57+00:00

We support short command 'rec*' for 'record' and 'rep*' for 'report' in lots of sub-commands, but the matching is not quite strict currnetly. It may be puzzling sometime, like we mis-type a 'recport' to report but it will perform 'record' in fact without any message. To fix this, add a check to ensure that the short cmd is valid prefix of the real command.

perf script: Add 'brstackinsnlen' for branch stacks

2022-03-22T21:00:45+00:00

When analyzing with 'perf script', it's useful to understand the captured instruction and the next sequential instruction. To calculate the address of the next sequential instruction, the length of the captured instruction is required. For example, you can’t know the next sequential instruction after an unconditional branch unless you calculate that based on its length. For branch stacks, 'perf script' only prints the instruction bytes with 'brstackinsn', but lacks the instruction length. Add 'brstackinsnlen' to print the instruction length. $ perf script -F ip,brstackinsn,brstackinsnlen --xed 7fa555be8f75 _start: 00007fa555be8090 mov %rsp, %rdi ilen: 3 00007fa555be8093 callq 0x7fa555be8ea0 ilen: 5 # PRED 102 cycles [102] 0.02 IPC _dl_start+38: 00007fa555be8ec6 movq %rdx,0x227853(%rip) ilen: 7 00007fa555be8ecd leaq 0x227f94(%rip),%rdx ilen: 7 Signed-off-by: Kan Liang Cc: Ahmad Yasin Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Xing Zhengjun Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/1647871212-184070-1-git-send-email-kan.liang@linux.intel.com [ Added the new field to tools/perf/Documentation/perf-script.txt ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf script: Output branch sample type

2022-03-07T17:51:56+00:00

The type info is saved when using '-j save_type'. Output this in 'perf script' so it can be accessed by other tools or for debugging. It's appended to the end of the list of fields so any existing tools that split on / and access fields via an index are not affected. Also output '-' instead of 'N/A' when the branch type isn't saved because / is used as a field separator. Entries before this change look like this: 0xaaaadb350838/0xaaaadb3507a4/P/-/-/0 And afterwards like this: 0xaaaadb350838/0xaaaadb3507a4/P/-/-/0/CALL or this if no type info is saved: 0x7fb57586df6b/0x7fb5758731f0/P/-/-/143/- Signed-off-by: James Clark Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Anshuman Khandual Cc: German Gomez Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Leo Yan Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Namhyung Kim Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220307171917.2555829-5-james.clark@arm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf script: Fix error when printing 'weight' field

2022-02-23T00:17:55+00:00

In SPE traces the 'weight' field can't be printed in 'perf script' because the 'dummy:u' event doesn't have the WEIGHT attribute set. Use evsel__do_check_stype(..) to check this field, as it's done with other fields such as "phys_addr". Before: $ perf record -e arm_spe_0// -- sleep 1 $ perf script -F event,ip,weight Samples for 'dummy:u' event do not have WEIGHT attribute set. Cannot print 'weight' field.
