2014-06-20perf symbols: Get kernel start address by symbol nameSimon Que1-32/+22
The function machine__get_kernel_start_addr() was taking the first symbol of kallsyms as the start address. This is incorrect in certain cases where the first symbol is something at 0, while the actual kernel functions begin at a later point (e.g. 0x80200000). This patch fixes machine__get_kernel_start_addr() to search for the symbol "_text" or "_stext", which marks the beginning of kernel mapping. This was already being done in machine__create_kernel_maps(). Thus, this patch is just a refactor, to move that code into machine__get_kernel_start_addr().

2014-06-20perf tools: Fix segfault in cumulative.callchain reportJiri Olsa1-5/+16
When cumulative callchain mode is on, we could get samples with with no actual hits. This breaks the assumption of the annotation code, that each sample has annotation counts allocated and leads to segfault. Fixing this by additional checks for annotation stats.

2014-06-12perf record: Fix to honor user freq/interval properlyNamhyung Kim1-2/+2
When configuring event perf checked a wrong condition that user specified both of freq (-F) and period (-c) or the event has no default value. This worked because most of events don't have default value and only tracepoint events have default of 1 (and it's not desirable to change it for those events). However, Andi's downloadable event patch changes the situation so it cannot change the value for those events. Fix it by allowing override the default value if user gives one of the options. $ perf record -a -e uops_retired.all -F 4000 sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.325 MB perf.data (~14185 samples) ] $ perf evlist -F cpu/uops_retired.all/: sample_freq=4000 Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1402292617-26278-1-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>

One interesting thing you can do with data addresses is to convert them into a unique cacheline they belong too. Organizing these data cachelines into similar groups and sorting them can reveal cache contention. This patch creates an alogorithm based on various sample details that can help group entries together into data cachelines and allows 'perf report' to sort on it. The algorithm relies on having proper mmap2 support in the kernel to help determine if the memory map the data address belongs to is private to a pid or globally shared. The alogortithm is as follows: o group cpumodes together o group entries with discovered maps together o sort on major, minor, inode and inode generation numbers o if userspace anon, then sort on pid o sort on cachelines based on data addresses The 'dcacheline' sort option in 'perf report' only works in 'mem-mode'. Sample output: # # Samples: 206 of event 'cpu/mem-loads/pp' # Total weight : 2534 # Sort order : dcacheline,pid # # Overhead Samples Data Cacheline Command: Pid # ........ ............ ...................................................................... .................. # 13.22% 1 [k] 0xffff88042f08ebc0 swapper: 0 9.27% 1 [k] 0xffff88082e8cea80 swapper: 0 3.59% 2 [k] 0xffffffff819ba180 swapper: 0 0.32% 1 [k] arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace_handler_na.23901+0xffffffffffffffe0 swapper: 0 0.32% 1 [k] timekeeper_seq+0xfffffffffffffff8 swapper: 0 Note: Added a '+1' to symlen size in hists__calc_col_len to prevent the next column from prematurely tabbing over and mis-aligning. Not sure what the problem is.

2014-06-09perf script/python: Print array argument as stringNamhyung Kim1-0/+1
With the Sebastian's change of handling num array argument (of raw syscall enter), the script still failed to work like this: $ perf record -e raw_syscalls:* sleep 1 $ perf script -g python $ perf script -s perf-script.py ... Traceback (most recent call last): File "perf-script.py", line 42, in raw_syscalls__sys_enter (id, args), TypeError: %u format: a number is required, not list Fatal Python error: problem in Python trace event handler Aborted (core dumped) This is because the generated script tries to print the array arg as unsigned integer (%u). Since the python seems to convert arguments to strings by default, just using %s solved the problem for me.

2014-06-08tools lib traceevent: Added support for __get_bitmask() macroSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)2-0/+2
Coming in v3.16, trace events will be able to save bitmasks in raw format in the ring buffer and output it with the __get_bitmask() macro. In order for userspace tools to parse this, it must be able to handle the __get_bitmask() call and be able to convert the data that's in the ring buffer into a nice bitmask format. The output is similar to what the kernel uses to print bitmasks, with a comma separator every 4 bytes (8 characters). This allows for cpumasks to also be saved efficiently. The first user is the thermal:thermal_power_limit event which has the following output: thermal_power_limit: cpus=0000000f freq=1900000 cdev_state=0 power=5252 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140506132238.22e136d1@gandalf.local.home Suggested-by: Javi Merino <javi.merino@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Tested-by: Javi Merino <javi.merino@arm.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140603032224.229186537@goodmis.org Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>

2014-06-04perf probe: Fix perf probe to find correct variable DIEMasami Hiramatsu1-2/+5
Fix perf probe to find correct variable DIE which has location or external instance by tracking down the lexical blocks. Current die_find_variable() expects that the all variable DIEs which has DW_TAG_variable have a location. However, since recent dwarf information may have declaration variable DIEs at the entry of function (subprogram), die_find_variable() returns it. To solve this problem, it must track down the DIE tree to find a DIE which has an actual location or a reference for external instance. e.g. finding a DIE which origin is <0xdc73>; <1><11496>: Abbrev Number: 95 (DW_TAG_subprogram) <11497> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0xdc42> <1149b> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x1850 [...] <2><114cc>: Abbrev Number: 119 (DW_TAG_variable) <- this is a declaration <114cd> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0xdc73> <2><114d1>: Abbrev Number: 119 (DW_TAG_variable) [...] <3><115a7>: Abbrev Number: 105 (DW_TAG_lexical_block) <115a8> DW_AT_ranges : 0xaa0 <4><115ac>: Abbrev Number: 96 (DW_TAG_variable) <- this has a location <115ad> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0xdc73> <115b1> DW_AT_location : 0x486c (location list) Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140529121930.30879.87092.stgit@ltc230.yrl.intra.hitachi.co.jp Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>
2014-06-04perf probe: Fix a segfault if asked for variable it doesn't findMasami Hiramatsu1-2/+2
Fix a segfault bug by asking for variable it doesn't find. Since the convert_variable() didn't handle error code returned from convert_variable_location(), it just passed an incomplete variable field and then a segfault was occurred when formatting the field. This fixes that bug by handling success code correctly in convert_variable(). Other callers of convert_variable_location() are correctly checking the return code. This bug was introduced by following commit. But another hidden erroneous error handling has been there previously (-ENOMEM case). commit 3d918a12a1b3088ac16ff37fa52760639d6e2403 Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Reported-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140529105232.28251.30447.stgit@ltc230.yrl.intra.hitachi.co.jp Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>
2014-06-03perf tools: Fix 'make help' message errorJianyu Zhan2-3/+3
Currently 'make help' message has such hint: use "make prefix=<path> <install target>" to install to a particular path like make prefix=/usr/local install install-doc But this is misleading, when I specify "prefix=/usr/local", it has got no respect at all. This is because that, "DESTDIR" is considered first. In this case, "DESTDIR" has an empty value, so "prefix" is honored. However, "prefix" is unconditionally assigned to $HOME, regardless of what it is set to from command line. So our "prefix" setting got no respect and the actual destination falls back to $HOME.

2014-06-03perf record: Fix poll return value propagationJiri Olsa1-1/+5
If the perf record command is interrupted in record__mmap_read_all function, the 'done' is set and err has the latest poll return value, which is most likely positive number (= number of pollfds ready to read). This 'positive err' is then propagated to the exit code, resulting in not finishing the perf.data header properly, causing following error in report: # perf record -F 50000 -a --- make the system real busy, so there's more chance to interrupt perf in event writing code --- ^C[ perf record: Woken up 16 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 30.292 MB perf.data (~1323468 samples) ] # perf report --stdio > /dev/null WARNING: The perf.data file's data size field is 0 which is unexpected.

After output/sort fields refactoring, it's expensive to check the elide bool in its current location inside the 'struct sort_entry'. The perf_hpp__should_skip function gets highly noticable in workloads with high number of output/sort fields, like for: $ perf report -i perf-test.data -F overhead,sample,period,comm,pid,dso,symbol,cpu --stdio Performance report: 9.70% perf [.] perf_hpp__should_skip Moving the elide bool into the 'struct perf_hpp_fmt', which makes the perf_hpp__should_skip just single struct read. Got speedup of around 22% for my test perf.data workload. The change should not harm any other workload types.
