2015-09-28perf tools: Enable event_config terms to tracepoint eventsHe Kuang3-23/+90
This patch enables config terms for tracepoint perf events. Valid terms for tracepoint events are 'call-graph' and 'stack-size', so we can use different callgraph settings for each event and eliminate unnecessary overhead. Here is an example for using different call-graph config for each tracepoint. $ perf record -e syscalls:sys_enter_write/call-graph=fp/ -e syscalls:sys_exit_write/call-graph=no/ dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=4k count=10 $ perf report --stdio # # Total Lost Samples: 0 # # Samples: 13 of event 'syscalls:sys_enter_write' # Event count (approx.): 13 # # Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ........ ....... .................. ...................... # 76.92% 76.92% dd libpthread-2.20.so [.] __write_nocancel | ---__write_nocancel 23.08% 23.08% dd libc-2.20.so [.] write | ---write | |--33.33%-- 0x2031342820736574 | |--33.33%-- 0xa6e69207364726f | --33.33%-- 0x34202c7320393039 ... # Samples: 13 of event 'syscalls:sys_exit_write' # Event count (approx.): 13 # # Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ........ ....... .................. ...................... # 76.92% 76.92% dd libpthread-2.20.so [.] __write_nocancel 23.08% 23.08% dd libc-2.20.so [.] write 7.69% 0.00% dd [unknown] [.] 0x0a6e69207364726f 7.69% 0.00% dd [unknown] [.] 0x2031342820736574 7.69% 0.00% dd [unknown] [.] 0x34202c7320393039 Signed-off-by: He Kuang <hekuang@huawei.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Cc: pi3orama@163.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1443412336-120050-4-git-send-email-hekuang@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2015-09-28perf tools: Adds the tracepoint name parsing supportHe Kuang1-14/+23
Adds rules for parsing tracepoint names. Change rules of tracepoint which derives from PE_NAMEs into tracepoint names directly, so adding more rules based on tracepoint names will be easier.

2015-09-28perf tools: Show proper error message for wrong terms of hw/sw eventsHe Kuang4-24/+45
Show proper error message and show valid terms when wrong config terms is specified for hw/sw type perf events. This patch makes the original error format function formats_error_string() more generic, which only outputs the static config terms for hw/sw perf events, and prepends pmu formats for pmu events.

2015-09-28perf tools: Adds the config_term callback for different type eventsHe Kuang1-12/+26
Currently, function config_term() is used for checking config terms of all types of events, while unknown terms is not reported as an error because pmu events have valid terms in sysfs. But this is wrong when unknown terms are specificed to hw/sw events. This patch Adds the config_term callback so we can use separate check routines for each type of events.

2015-09-28perf intel-pt: Add mispred-all config option to aid use with autofdoAdrian Hunter2-0/+43
autofdo incorrectly expects branch flags to include either mispred or predicted. In fact mispred = predicted = 0 is valid and means the flags are not supported, which they aren't by Intel PT. To make autofdo work, add a config option which will cause Intel PT decoder to set the mispred flag on all branches. Below is an example of using Intel PT with autofdo. The example is also added to the Intel PT documentation. It requires autofdo (https://github.com/google/autofdo) and gcc version 5. The bubble sort example is from the AutoFDO tutorial (https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/AutoFDO/Tutorial) amended to take the number of elements as a parameter. $ gcc-5 -O3 sort.c -o sort_optimized $ ./sort_optimized 30000 Bubble sorting array of 30000 elements 2254 ms $ cat ~/.perfconfig [intel-pt] mispred-all $ perf record -e intel_pt//u ./sort 3000 Bubble sorting array of 3000 elements 58 ms [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 3.939 MB perf.data ] $ perf inject -i perf.data -o inj --itrace=i100usle --strip $ ./create_gcov --binary=./sort --profile=inj --gcov=sort.gcov -gcov_version=1 $ gcc-5 -O3 -fauto-profile=sort.gcov sort.c -o sort_autofdo $ ./sort_autofdo 30000 Bubble sorting array of 30000 elements 2155 ms Note there is currently no advantage to using Intel PT instead of LBR, but that may change in the future if greater use is made of the data.

2015-09-28perf inject: Add --strip option to strip out non-synthesized eventsAdrian Hunter2-0/+95
Add a new option --strip which is used with --itrace to strip out non-synthesized events. This results in a perf.data file that is simpler for external tools to parse. In particular, this can be used to prepare a perf.data file for consumption by autofdo. A subsequent patch makes a change to Intel PT also to enable use with autofdo and gives an example of that use.

2015-09-28perf script: Make scripting_max_stack value allow for synthesized callchainsAdrian Hunter1-0/+4
perf script has a setting to set the maximum stack depth when processing callchains. The setting defaults to the hard-coded maximum definition PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH which is 127. It is possible, when processing instruction traces, to synthesize callchains. Synthesized callchains do not have the kernel size limitation and are whatever size the user requests, although validation presently prevents the user requested a value greater that 1024. The default value is 16. To allow for synthesized callchains, make the scripting_max_stack value at least the same size as the synthesized callchain size.

2015-09-28perf report: Make max_stack value allow for synthesized callchainsAdrian Hunter1-0/+4
perf report has an option (--max-stack) to set the maximum stack depth when processing callchains. The option defaults to the hard-coded maximum definition PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH which is 127. The intention of the option is to allow the user to reduce the processing time by reducing the amount of the callchain that is processed. It is also possible, when processing instruction traces, to synthesize callchains. Synthesized callchains do not have the kernel size limitation and are whatever size the user requests, although validation presently prevents the user requested a value greater that 1024. The default value is 16. To allow for synthesized callchains, make the max_stack value at least the same size as the synthesized callchain size.

2015-09-28perf intel-pt: Support generating branch stackAdrian Hunter2-0/+125
Add support for generating branch stack context for PT samples. The decoder reports a configurable number of branches as branch context for each sample. Internally it keeps track of them by using a simple sliding window. We also flush the last branch buffer on each sample to avoid overlapping intervals. This is useful for: - Reporting accurate basic block edge frequencies through the perf report branch view - Using with --branch-history to get the wider context of samples - Other users of LBRs Also the Documentation is updated. Examples: Record with Intel PT: perf record -e intel_pt//u ls Branch stacks are used by default if synthesized so: perf report --itrace=ile is the same as: perf report --itrace=ile -b Branch history can be requested also: perf report --itrace=igle --branch-history Based-on-patch-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1443186956-18718-15-git-send-email-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2015-09-28perf intel-pt: Fix potential loop foreverAdrian Hunter1-2/+2
TSC packets contain only 7 bytes of TSC. The 8th byte is assumed to change so infrequently that its value can be inferred. However the logic must cater for a 7 byte wraparound, which it does by adding 1 to the top byte. The existing code was doing that with a while loop even though the addition should only need to be done once. That logic won't work (will loop forever) if TSC wraps around at the 8th byte. Theoretically that would take at least 10 years, unless something else went wrong. And what else could go wrong. Well, if the chunks of trace data are processed out of order, it will make it look like the 7-byte TSC has gone backwards (i.e. wrapped). If that happens 256 times then stuck in the while loop it will be. Fix that by getting rid of the unnecessary while loop.

2015-09-28perf report: Fix sample type validation for synthesized callchainsAdrian Hunter1-0/+6
Processing instruction tracing data (e.g. Intel PT) can synthesize callchains e.g. $ perf record -e intel_pt//u uname $ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige However perf report's callgraph option gets extra validation, so: $ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige -gflat Error: Selected -g or --branch-history but no callchain data. Did you call 'perf record' without -g? # To display the perf.data header info, # please use --header/--header-only options. # Fix the validation to know about instruction tracing options so above command works. A side-effect of the change is that the default option to accumulate the callchain of child functions comes into force. To get the previous behaviour the --no-children option can be used e.g. $ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige -gflat --no-children Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1443186956-18718-3-git-send-email-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2015-09-28perf auxtrace: Fix 'instructions' period of zeroAdrian Hunter3-2/+9
Instruction tracing options (i.e. --itrace) include an option for sampling instructions at an arbitrary period. e.g. --itrace=i10us means make an 'instructions' sample for every 10us of trace. Currently the logic does not distinguish between a period of zero and no period being specified at all, so it gets treated as the default period which is 100000. That doesn't really make sense. Fix it so that zero period is accepted and treated as meaning "as often as possible". In the case of Intel PT that is the same as a period of 1 and a unit of 'instructions' (i.e. --itrace=i1i).

2015-09-28tools build: Add fixdep dependency helperJiri Olsa3-0/+212
For dependency tracking we currently use targets that fall out of the gcc -MD command. We store this info in the .cmd file and include as makefile during the build. This format put object as target and all the c and header files as dependencies, like: util/abspath.o: util/abspath.c /usr/include/stdc-predef.h util/cache.h \ /usr/include/bits/wordsize.h /usr/include/gnu/stubs.h \ ... If any of those dependency header files (krava.h below) is removed the build fails on: make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'krava.h', needed by 'inc.o'. Stop. This patch adds fixdep helper, that is used by kbuild to alter the shape of the object dependencies like: source_util/abspath.o := util/abspath.c deps_util/abspath.o := \ /usr/include/stdc-predef.h \ util/cache.h \ ... util/abspath.o: $(deps_util/abspath.o) $(deps_util/abspath.o): With this format the header removal won't make the build fail, because it'll be picked up by the last empty target defined for each header. As previously mentioned the fixdep tool is taken from kbuild. It's not complete backport, only the part that alters the standard dependency info was taken, the part that adds the CONFIG_* dependency logic will be probably taken later on.

2015-09-28tools build: Add test for missing includeJiri Olsa5-1/+39
The current build framework fails to cope with header file removal. The reason is that the removed header file stays in the .cmd file target rule and forces the build to fail. This issue is fixed and explained in the following patches. Adding a new build test that simulates header removal.

2015-09-25perf tools: Fix copying of /proc/kcoreAdrian Hunter1-22/+13
A copy of /proc/kcore containing the kernel text can be made to the buildid cache. e.g. perf buildid-cache -v -k /proc/kcore To workaround objdump limitations, a copy is also made when annotating against /proc/kcore. The copying process stops working from libelf about v1.62 onwards (the problem was found with v1.63). The cause is that a call to gelf_getphdr() in kcore__add_phdr() fails because additional validation has been added to gelf_getphdr(). The use of gelf_getphdr() is a misguided attempt to get default initialization of the Gelf_Phdr structure. That should not be necessary because every member of the Gelf_Phdr structure is subsequently assigned. So just remove the call to gelf_getphdr(). Similarly, a call to gelf_getehdr() in gelf_kcore__init() can be removed also. Committer notes: Note to stable@kernel.org, from Adrian in the cover letter for this patchkit: The "Fix copying of /proc/kcore" problem goes back to v3.13 if you think it is important enough for stable.

2015-09-23perf record: Synthesize COMM event for a command line workloadNamhyung Kim3-2/+20
When perf creates a new child to profile, the events are enabled on exec(). And in this case, it doesn't synthesize any event for the child since they'll be generated during exec(). But there's an window between the enabling and the event generation. It used to be overcome since samples are only in kernel (so we always have the map) and the comm is overridden by a later COMM event. However it won't work if events are processed and displayed before the COMM event overrides like in 'perf script'. This leads to those early samples (like native_write_msr_safe) not having a comm but pid (like ':15328'). So it needs to synthesize COMM event for the child explicitly before enabling so that it can have a correct comm. But at this time, the comm will be "perf" since it's not exec-ed yet.
