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 session: Introduce decompressor in reader object

2021-10-25T16:47:41+00:00

Introduce a decompressor data structure with pointers to decomp objects and to zstd object. We cannot just move session->zstd_data to decomp_data as session->zstd_data is not only used for decompression. Adding decompressor data object to reader object and introducing active_decomp into perf_session object to select current decompressor. Thus decompression could be executed separately for each data file.

perf tools: Pass a fd to perf_file_header__read_pipe()

2021-08-02T13:09:05+00:00

Currently it unconditionally writes to stdout for repipe. But perf inject can direct its output to a regular file. Then it needs to write the header to the file as well.

perf tools: Remove repipe argument from perf_session__new()

2021-08-02T13:06:51+00:00

The repipe argument is only used by perf inject and the all others passes 'false'. Let's remove it from the function signature and add __perf_session__new() to be called from perf inject directly. This is a preparation of the change the pipe input/output.

perf report: Add --skip-empty option to suppress 0 event stat

2021-04-29T13:30:59+00:00

To make the output more readable, I think it's better to remove 0's in the output. Also the dummy event has no event stats so it just wasts the space. Let's use the --skip-empty option to suppress it. $ perf report --stat --skip-empty Aggregated stats: TOTAL events: 16530 MMAP events: 226 COMM events: 1596 EXIT events: 2 THROTTLE events: 121 UNTHROTTLE events: 117 FORK events: 1595 SAMPLE events: 719 MMAP2 events: 12147 CGROUP events: 2 FINISHED_ROUND events: 2 THREAD_MAP events: 1 CPU_MAP events: 1 TIME_CONV events: 1 cycles stats: SAMPLE events: 719 Reviewed-by: Andi Kleen Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Acked-by: Jiri Olsa Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Ian Rogers Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210427013717.1651674-5-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf session: Add facility to peek at all events

2019-11-22T13:48:13+00:00

AUX area samples are not limited in how far back in time the sample could start. Consequently samples must be queued in advance to allow for time-ordered processing. To achieve that, add perf_session__peek_events() that walks and peeks at all the events.

perf evlist: Adopt __set_tracepoint_handlers method from perf_session

It all operates on the evsels in the session's evlist, so move it to the evlist layer to make it useful to tools not using perf_session, just evlists, like 'perf trace' in live mode.

perf tools: Move event synthesizing routines to separate header

2019-09-20T12:19:22+00:00

Those are the only routines using the perf_event__handler_t typedef and are all related, so move to a separate header to reduce the header dependency tree, lots of places were getting event.h and even stdio.h, limits.h indirectly, so fix those as well.
