* perf record: Add --sample-cpu optionJiri Olsa2016-08-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adding --sample-cpu option to be able to explicitly enable CPU sample type. Currently it's only enable implicitly in case the target is cpu related. It will be useful for following c2c record tool.

* perf record: Add --tail-synthesize optionWang Nan2016-07-151-6/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When working with overwritable ring buffer there's a inconvenience problem: if perf dumps data after a long period after it starts, non-sample events may lost, which makes following 'perf report' unable to identify proc name and mmap layout. For example: # perf record -m 4 -e raw_syscalls:* -g --overwrite --switch-output \ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null send SIGUSR2 after dd runs long enough. The resuling perf.data lost correct comm and mmap events: # perf script -i perf.data.2016061522374354 perf 24478 [004] 2581325.601789: raw_syscalls:sys_exit: NR 0 = 512 ^^^^ Should be 'dd' 27b2e8 syscall_slow_exit_work+0xfe2000e3 (/lib/modules/4.6.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) 203cc7 do_syscall_64+0xfe200117 (/lib/modules/4.6.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) b18d83 return_from_SYSCALL_64+0xfe200000 (/lib/modules/4.6.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) 7f47c417edf0 [unknown] ([unknown]) ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Fail to unwind This patch provides a '--tail-synthesize' option, allows perf to collect system status when finalizing output file. In resuling output file, the non-sample events reflect system status when dumping data. After this patch: # perf record -m 4 -e raw_syscalls:* -g --overwrite --switch-output --tail-synthesize \ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null # perf script -i perf.data.2016061600544998 dd 27364 [004] 2583244.994464: raw_syscalls:sys_enter: NR 1 (1, ... ^^ Correct comm 203a18 syscall_trace_enter_phase2+0xfe2001a8 ([kernel.kallsyms]) 203aa5 syscall_trace_enter+0xfe200055 ([kernel.kallsyms]) 203caa do_syscall_64+0xfe2000fa ([kernel.kallsyms]) b18d83 return_from_SYSCALL_64+0xfe200000 ([kernel.kallsyms]) d8e50 __GI___libc_write+0xffff01d9639f4010 (/tmp/oxygen_root-w00229757/lib64/libc-2.18.so) ^^^^^ Correct unwind This option doesn't aim to solve this problem completely. If a process terminates before SIGUSR2, we still lost its COMM and MMAP events. For example, we can't unwind correctly from the final perf.data we get from the previous example, because when perf collects the final output file (when we press C-c), 'dd' has been terminated so its '/proc/<pid>/mmap' becomes empty. However, this is a cheaper choice. To completely solve this problem we need to continously output non-sample events. To satisify the requirement of daemonization, we need to merge them periodically. It is possible but requires much more code and cycles. Automatically select --tail-synthesize when --overwrite is provided.

* perf tools: Enable overwrite settingsWang Nan2016-07-151-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch allows following config terms and option: Globally setting events to overwrite; # perf record --overwrite ... Set specific events to be overwrite or no-overwrite. # perf record --event cycles/overwrite/ ... # perf record --event cycles/no-overwrite/ ... Add missing config terms and update the config term array size because the longest string length has changed. For overwritable events, it automatically selects attr.write_backward since perf requires it to be backward for reading. Test result: # perf record --overwrite -e syscalls:*enter_nanosleep* usleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.011 MB perf.data (1 samples) ] # perf evlist -v syscalls:sys_enter_nanosleep: type: 2, size: 112, config: 0x134, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 1, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD|RAW, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1, write_backward: 1 # Tip: use 'perf evlist --trace-fields' to show fields for tracepoint events Signed-off-by: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Nilay Vaish <nilayvaish@gmail.com> Cc: Zefan Li <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: pi3orama@163.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1468485287-33422-14-git-send-email-wangnan0@huawei.com Signed-off-by: He Kuang <hekuang@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

(0): Setup backward ring buffer (1): Pause ring buffers for reading (2): Read from ring buffers (3): Resume ring buffers for recording We can't avoid this complexity. Since we deliberately drop records from overwritable ring buffer, there's no way for us to check remaining from ring buffer itself (by checking head and old pointers). Therefore, we need DATA_PENDING and EMPTY state to help us recording what we have done to the ring buffer. In record__mmap_read_evlist(), drive this state machine from DATA_PENDING to EMPTY. In perf_evlist__mmap_per_evsel(), drive this state machine from NOTREADY to RUNNING when creating backward mmap.

* tools: Introduce str_error_r()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2016-07-121-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else. But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine Linux, where musl libc is used. So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is returned.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | record__mmap_read() writes data from ring buffer into perf.data. 'head' is maintained by the kernel, points to the last written record. 'old' is maintained by perf, points to the record read in previous round. record__mmap_read() saves data from 'old' to 'head' to perf.data. The names of these variables are not very intutive. In addition, when dealing with backward writing ring buffer, the md->prev pointer should point to 'head' instead of the last byte it got. Add 'start' and 'end' pointer to make code clear and set md->prev to 'head' instead of the moved 'old' pointer.

* perf tools: Add time conversion eventAdrian Hunter2016-03-311-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Intel PT uses the time members from the perf_event_mmap_page to convert between TSC and perf time. Due to a lack of foresight when Intel PT was implemented, those time members were recorded in the (implementation dependent) AUXTRACE_INFO event, the structure of which is generally inaccessible outside of the Intel PT decoder. However now the conversion between TSC and perf time is needed when processing a jitdump file when Intel PT has been used for tracing. So add a user event to record the time members. 'perf record' will synthesize the event if the information is available. And session processing will put a copy of the event on the session so that tools like 'perf inject' can easily access it.

This patch also does the real work for setting values for BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_ARRAY maps by inserting value stored in map's private field into the BPF map. This patch is required because we are not always able to set all BPF config during parsing. Further patch will set events created by perf to BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY maps, which is not exist until perf_evsel__open(). bpf_map_foreach_key() is introduced to iterate over each key needs to be configured. This function would be extended to support more map types and different key settings. In perf record, before start recording, call bpf__apply_config() to turn on all BPF config options.

* perf record: Add record.build-id config optionNamhyung Kim2015-12-151-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Post processing at 'perf record' takes a long time on big machines. What it does is to find the build-id of binaries found in the event stream, so that it can make sure, at 'report' time, that the symtabs (be it ELF, kallsyms, etc) being used to resolve symbols are the ones matching the binaries found at 'record' time. Sometimes we just want to skip this processing of events at the end of the session to get quicker results, making sure the binaries haven't changed from 'record' to 'report' time. Add a new config option to control this behavior. The record.build-id config variable can have one of the following values: - cache: post-process data and save/update the binaries into the build-id cache (in ~/.debug).

* perf record: Support custom vmlinux pathHe Kuang2015-12-141-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make perf-record command support --vmlinux option if BPF_PROLOGUE is on. 'perf record' needs vmlinux as the source of DWARF info to generate prologue for BPF programs, so path of vmlinux should be specified. Short name 'k' has been taken by 'clockid'. This patch skips the short option name and uses '--vmlinux' for vmlinux path. Documentation is also updated. Test result: In a production (or broken) environment: (by: # rm -rf ~/.debug/ # mv /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/vmlinux /tmp/ ) # ./perf record -e ./test_bpf_base.c ls Failed to find the path for kernel: No such file or directory event syntax error: './test_bpf_base.c' \___ You need to check probing points in BPF file ... # ./perf record --vmlinux /tmp/vmlinux -e ./test_bpf_base.c ls ...

* perf tools: Make options always available, even if required libs not linkedWang Nan2015-12-141-2/+7

If one option is disabled because of compiling options, users should be notified. Masami suggested another implementation in [1] that, by adding a OPTION_NEXT_DEPENDS option before those options in the 'struct option' array, options parser knows an option is disabled. However, in some cases this array is reordered (options__order()). In addition, in parse-option.c that array is const, so we can't simply merge information in decorator option into the affacted option. This patch chooses a simpler implementation that, introducing a set_option_nobuild() function and two option parsing flags. Builtins with such options should call set_option_nobuild() before option parsing. The complexity of this patch is because we want some of options can be skipped safely. In this case their arguments should also be consumed. Options in 'perf record' and 'perf probe' are fixed in this patch.

* perf record: Change 'record.samples' type to unsigned long longYang Shi2015-10-021-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When run "perf record -e", the number of samples showed up is wrong on some 32 bit systems, i.e. powerpc and arm. For example, run the below commands on 32 bit powerpc: perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 malloc perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -a ls perf.data [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.036 MB perf.data (13829241621624967218 samples) ] Actually, "perf script" just shows 21 samples. The number of samples is also absurd since samples is long type, but it is printed as PRIu64. Build test ran on x86-64, x86, aarch64, arm, mips, ppc and ppc64.

* perf record: Allocate area for sample_id_hdr in a synthesized comm eventNamhyung Kim2015-10-011-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A previous patch added a synthesized comm event for forked child process but it missed that the event should contain area for sample_id_hdr at the end. It worked by accident since the perf_event union contains bigger event structs like mmap_events. This patch fixes it by dynamically allocating event struct including those area like in perf_event__synthesize_thread_map().
