2016-02-20perf callchain: Add enum match_result for match_chain()Namhyung Kim1-18/+34
The append_chain() might return either result of match_chain() or other (error) code. But match_chain() can return any value in s64 type so it's hard to check the error case. Add new enum match_result and make match_chain() return non-negative values only so that we can check the error cases.

2015-11-19perf hists browser: Support flat callchainsNamhyung Kim1-0/+44
The flat callchain mode is to print all chains in a single, simple hierarchy so make it easy to see. Currently perf report --tui doesn't show flat callchains properly. With flat callchains, only leaf nodes are added to the final rbtree so it should show entries in parent nodes. To do that, add parent_val list to struct callchain_node and show them along with the (normal) val list. For example, consider following callchains with '-g graph'. $ perf report -g graph - 39.93% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] [k] intel_idle intel_idle cpuidle_enter_state cpuidle_enter call_cpuidle - cpu_startup_entry 28.63% start_secondary - 11.30% rest_init start_kernel x86_64_start_reservations x86_64_start_kernel Before: $ perf report -g flat - 39.93% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] [k] intel_idle 28.63% start_secondary - 11.30% rest_init start_kernel x86_64_start_reservations x86_64_start_kernel After: $ perf report -g flat - 39.93% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] [k] intel_idle - 28.63% intel_idle cpuidle_enter_state cpuidle_enter call_cpuidle cpu_startup_entry start_secondary - 11.30% intel_idle cpuidle_enter_state cpuidle_enter call_cpuidle cpu_startup_entry start_kernel x86_64_start_reservations x86_64_start_kernel Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Tested-by: Brendan Gregg <brendan.d.gregg@gmail.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1447047946-1691-8-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2015-02-18perf tools: Enable LBR call stack supportKan Liang1-0/+8
Currently, there are two call chain recording options, fp and dwarf. Haswell has a new feature that utilizes the existing LBR facility to record call chains. Kernel side LBR support code provides this as a third option to record call chains. This patch enables the lbr call stack support on the tooling side. LBR call stack has some limitations: - It reuses current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and branch record can not be enabled at the same time. - It is only available for user-space callchains. However, it also offers some advantages: - LBR call stack can work on user apps which don't have frame-pointers or dwarf debug info compiled. It is a good alternative when nothing else works.

2014-12-02perf callchain: Support handling complete branch stacks as histogramsAndi Kleen1-0/+4
Currently branch stacks can be only shown as edge histograms for individual branches. I never found this display particularly useful. This implements an alternative mode that creates histograms over complete branch traces, instead of individual branches, similar to how normal callgraphs are handled. This is done by putting it in front of the normal callgraph and then using the normal callgraph histogram infrastructure to unify them. This way in complex functions we can understand the control flow that lead to a particular sample, and may even see some control flow in the caller for short functions. Example (simplified, of course for such simple code this is usually not needed), please run this after the whole patchkit is in, as at this point in the patch order there is no --branch-history, that will be added in a patch after this one: tcall.c: volatile a = 10000, b = 100000, c; __attribute__((noinline)) f2() { c = a / b; } __attribute__((noinline)) f1() { f2(); f2(); } main() { int i; for (i = 0; i < 1000000; i++) f1(); } % perf record -b -g ./tsrc/tcall [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.044 MB perf.data (~1923 samples) ] % perf report --no-children --branch-history ... 54.91% tcall.c:6 [.] f2 tcall | |--65.53%-- f2 tcall.c:5 | | | |--70.83%-- f1 tcall.c:11 | | f1 tcall.c:10 | | main tcall.c:18 | | main tcall.c:18 | | main tcall.c:17 | | main tcall.c:17 | | f1 tcall.c:13 | | f1 tcall.c:13 | | f2 tcall.c:7 | | f2 tcall.c:5 | | f1 tcall.c:12 | | f1 tcall.c:12 | | f2 tcall.c:7 | | f2 tcall.c:5 | | f1 tcall.c:11 | | | --29.17%-- f1 tcall.c:12 | f1 tcall.c:12 | f2 tcall.c:7 | f2 tcall.c:5 | f1 tcall.c:11 | f1 tcall.c:10 | main tcall.c:18 | main tcall.c:18 | main tcall.c:17 | main tcall.c:17 | f1 tcall.c:13 | f1 tcall.c:13 | f2 tcall.c:7 | f2 tcall.c:5 | f1 tcall.c:12 The default output is unchanged. This is only implemented in perf report, no change to record or anywhere else. This adds the basic code to report: - add a new "branch" option to the -g option parser to enable this mode - when the flag is set include the LBR into the callstack in machine.c. The rest of the history code is unchanged and doesn't know the difference between LBR entry and normal call entry. - detect overlaps with the callchain - remove small loop duplicates in the LBR Current limitations: - The LBR flags (mispredict etc.) are not shown in the history and LBR entries have no special marker. - It would be nice if annotate marked the LBR entries somehow (e.g. with arrows) v2: Various fixes. v3: Merge further patches into this one.

For lbr-as-callgraph we need to see the line number in the history, because many LBR entries can be in a single function, and just showing the same function name many times is not useful. When the history code is configured to sort by address, also try to resolve the address to a file:srcline and display this in the browser. If that doesn't work still display the address. This can be also useful without LBRs for understanding which call in a large function (or in which inlined function) called something else.

2014-01-17perf callchain: Spare double comparison of callchain first entryFrederic Weisbecker1-10/+10
When a new callchain child branch matches an existing one in the rbtree, the comparison of its first entry is performed twice: 1) From append_chain_children() on branch lookup 2) If 1) reports a match, append_chain() then compares all entries of the new branch against the matching node in the rbtree, and this comparison includes the first entry of the new branch again. Lets shortcut this by performing the whole comparison only from append_chain() which then returns the result of the comparison between the first entry of the new branch and the iterating node in the rbtree. If the first entry matches, the lookup on the current level of siblings stops and propagates to the children of the matching nodes. This results in less comparisons performed by the CPU.

2013-07-22perf tools: Support callchain sorting based on addressesAndi Kleen1-2/+5
With programs with very large functions it can be useful to distinguish the callgraph nodes on more than just function names. So for example if you have multiple calls to the same function, it ends up being separate nodes in the chain. This patch adds a new key field to the callgraph options, that allows comparing nodes on functions (as today, default) and addresses. Longer term it would be nice to also handle src lines, but that would need more changes and address is a reasonable proxy for it today. I right now reference the global params, as there was no simple way to register a params pointer.

I know that was the regex used, because on seeing the 1st of these changes, I wondered "how many other instances of this are there" and I happened to just use "calloc(sizeof" as a regex and it in turn found these additional reversed args instances in the perf code. In the kcalloc cases, the changes are cosmetic, since the numbers are simply multiplied. I had no desire to go data mining in userspace to see if the same thing held true there, however.

2012-09-11perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variablesIrina Tirdea1-3/+3
perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking unused variables. The variable __used is defined to __attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to __attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning: '__used__' attribute ignored __unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition. If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name in its headers. The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android. This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with __maybe_unused.

2011-01-23perf callchain: Feed callchains into a cursorFrederic Weisbecker1-104/+100
The callchains are fed with an array of a fixed size. As a result we iterate over each callchains three times: - 1st to resolve symbols - 2nd to filter out context boundaries - 3rd for the insertion into the tree This also involves some pairs of memory allocation/deallocation everytime we insert a callchain, for the filtered out array of addresses and for the array of symbols that comes along. Instead, feed the callchains through a linked list with persistent allocations. It brings several pros like: - Merge the 1st and 2nd iterations in one. That was possible before but in a way that would involve allocating an array slightly taller than necessary because we don't know in advance the number of context boundaries to filter out. - Much lesser allocations/deallocations. The linked list keeps persistent empty entries for the next usages and is extendable at will. - Makes it easier for multiple sources of callchains to feed a stacktrace together. This is deemed to pave the way for cfi based callchains wherein traditional frame pointer based kernel stacktraces will precede cfi based user ones, producing an overall callchain which size is hardly predictable. This requirement makes the static array obsolete and makes a linked list based iterator a much more flexible fit. Basic testing on a big perf file containing callchains (~ 176 MB) has shown a throughput gain of about 11% with perf report.

2010-08-22perf: Support for callchains mergeFrederic Weisbecker1-0/+56
If we sort the histograms by comm, which is the default, we need to merge some of them, typically different thread histograms of a same process, or just same comm. But during this merge, we forgot to merge callchains. So imagine we have three threads (tids: 1000, 1001, 1002) that belong to comm "foo". tid 1000 got 100 events tid 1001 got 10 events tid 1002 got 3 events Once we merge these histograms to get a per comm result, we'll finally get: "foo" got 113 events The problem is if we merge 1000 and 1001 histograms into 1002, then the end merge result, wrt callchains, will be only callchains that belong to 1002. This is because we haven't handled callchains in the merge. Only those from one of the threads inside a common comm survive. It means during this merge, we can lose a lot of callchains. Fix this by implementing callchains merge and apply it on histograms that collapse.

2010-07-08perf: Sync callchains with period based hitsFrederic Weisbecker1-17/+18
Hists have their hits increased by the event period. And this period based counting is the foundation of all the stats in perf report. But callchains still use the raw number of hits, without taking the period into account. So when we compute the percentage, absolute based percentages are totally broken, and relative ones too in the first parent level. Because we pass the number of events muliplied by their period as the total number of hits to the callchain filtering, while callchains expect this number to be the number of raw hits. perf report -g graph was simply not working, showing no graph unless the min percent was zero. And even there the percentage of the branches was always 0. And may be fractal filtering was broken on the first branch level too. flat also was broken, but it was hidden because of other breakages. Anyway fix this by counting using periods on callchains.
