| * perf: Make perf build for x86 with UAPI disintegration appliedDavid Howells2012-11-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make perf build for x86 once the UAPI disintegration patches for that arch have been applied by adding the appropriate -I flags - in the right order - and then converting some #includes that use ../.. notation to find main kernel headerfiles to use <asm/foo.h> and <linux/foo.h> instead. Note that -Iarch/foo/include/uapi is present _before_ -Iarch/foo/include. This makes sure we get the userspace version of the pt_regs struct. Ideally, we wouldn't have the latter -I flag at all, but unfortunately we want asm/svm.h and asm/vmx.h in builtin-kvm.c and these aren't part of the UAPI - at least not for x86. I wonder if the bits outside of the __KERNEL__ guards *should* be transferred there. I note also that perf seems to do its dependency handling manually by listing all the header files it might want to use in LIB_H in the Makefile. Can this be changed to use -MD? Note that to do make this work, we need to export and UAPI disintegrate linux/hw_breakpoint.h, which I think should've been exported previously so that perf can access the bits. We have to do this in the same patch to maintain bisectability. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

* perf tools: Back [vdso] DSO with real dataJiri Olsa2012-09-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Storing data for VDSO shared object, because we need it for the post unwind processing. The VDSO shared object is same for all process on a running system, so it makes no difference when we store it inside the tracer - perf. When [vdso] map memory is hit, we retrieve [vdso] DSO image and store it into temporary file. During the build-id processing phase, the [vdso] DSO image is stored in build-id db, and build-id reference is made inside perf.data. The build-id vdso file object is called '[vdso]'. We don't use temporary file name which gets removed when record is finished. During report phase the vdso build-id object is treated as any other build-id DSO object. Adding following API for vdso object: bool is_vdso_map(const char *filename) - returns true if the filename matches vdso map name struct dso *vdso__dso_findnew(struct list_head *head) - find/create proper vdso DSO object vdso__exit(void) - removes temporary VDSO image if there's any This change makes backtrace dwarf post unwind possible from [vdso] maps.

* perf tools: Add pmu mappings to header informationRobert Richter2012-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With dynamic pmu allocation there are also dynamically assigned pmu ids. These ids are used in event->attr.type to describe the pmu to be used for that event. The information is available in sysfs, e.g: /sys/bus/event_source/devices/breakpoint/type: 5 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/type: 4 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_fetch/type: 6 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_op/type: 7 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/software/type: 1 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/tracepoint/type: 2 These mappings are needed to know which samples belong to which pmu. If a pmu is added dynamically like for ibs_fetch or ibs_op the type value may vary. Now, when decoding samples from perf.data this information in sysfs might be no longer available or may have changed. We need to store it in perf.data. Using the header for this. Now the header information created with perf report contains an additional section looking like this: # pmu mappings: ibs_op = 7, ibs_fetch = 6, cpu = 4, breakpoint = 5, tracepoint = 2, software = 1 Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1345144224-27280-9-git-send-email-robert.richter@amd.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

* perf tools: Pass tool context in the the perf_event_ops functionsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2011-11-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So that we don't need to have that many globals. Next steps will remove the 'session' pointer, that in most cases is not needed. Then we can rename perf_event_ops to 'perf_tool' that better describes this class hierarchy.

* perf tools: Make perf.data more self-descriptive (v8)Stephane Eranian2011-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The goal of this patch is to include more information about the host environment into the perf.data so it is more self-descriptive. Overtime, profiles are captured on various machines and it becomes hard to track what was recorded, on what machine and when. This patch provides a way to solve this by extending the perf.data file with basic information about the host machine. To add those extensions, we leverage the feature bits capabilities of the perf.data format. The change is backward compatible with existing perf.data files. We define the following useful new extensions: - HEADER_HOSTNAME: the hostname - HEADER_OSRELEASE: the kernel release number - HEADER_ARCH: the hw architecture - HEADER_CPUDESC: generic CPU description - HEADER_NRCPUS: number of online/avail cpus - HEADER_CMDLINE: perf command line - HEADER_VERSION: perf version - HEADER_TOPOLOGY: cpu topology - HEADER_EVENT_DESC: full event description (attrs) - HEADER_CPUID: easy-to-parse low level CPU identication The small granularity for the entries is to make it easier to extend without breaking backward compatiblity. Many entries are provided as ASCII strings. Perf report/script have been modified to print the basic information as easy-to-parse ASCII strings. Extended information about CPU and NUMA topology may be requested with the -I option. Thanks to David Ahern for reviewing and testing the many versions of this patch. $ perf report --stdio # ======== # captured on : Mon Sep 26 15:22:14 2011 # hostname : quad # os release : 3.1.0-rc4-tip # perf version : 3.1.0-rc4 # arch : x86_64 # nrcpus online : 4 # nrcpus avail : 4 # cpudesc : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz # cpuid : GenuineIntel,6,15,11 # total memory : 8105360 kB # cmdline : /home/eranian/perfmon/official/tip/build/tools/perf/perf record date # event : name = cycles, type = 0, config = 0x0, config1 = 0x0, config2 = 0x0, excl_usr = 0, excl_kern = 0, id = { 29, 30, 31, # HEADER_CPU_TOPOLOGY info available, use -I to display # HEADER_NUMA_TOPOLOGY info available, use -I to display # ======== # ... $ perf report --stdio -I # ======== # captured on : Mon Sep 26 15:22:14 2011 # hostname : quad # os release : 3.1.0-rc4-tip # perf version : 3.1.0-rc4 # arch : x86_64 # nrcpus online : 4 # nrcpus avail : 4 # cpudesc : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz # cpuid : GenuineIntel,6,15,11 # total memory : 8105360 kB # cmdline : /home/eranian/perfmon/official/tip/build/tools/perf/perf record date # event : name = cycles, type = 0, config = 0x0, config1 = 0x0, config2 = 0x0, excl_usr = 0, excl_kern = 0, id = { 29, 30, 31, # sibling cores : 0-3 # sibling threads : 0 # sibling threads : 1 # sibling threads : 2 # sibling threads : 3 # node0 meminfo : total = 8320608 kB, free = 7571024 kB # node0 cpu list : 0-3 # ======== # ...

* perf record: Add option to disable collecting build-idsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2010-11-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Collecting build-ids for long running sessions may take a long time because it needs to traverse the whole just collected perf.data stream of events, marking the DSOs that had hits and then looking for the .note.gnu.build-id ELF section. For things like the 'trace' tool that records and right away consumes the data on systems where its unlikely that the DSOs being monitored will change while 'trace' runs, it is desirable to remove build id collection, so add a -B/--no-buildid option to perf record to allow such use case. Longer term we'll avoid all this if we, at DSO load time, in the kernel, take advantage of this slow code path to collect the build-id and stash it somewhere, so that we can insert it in the PERF_RECORD_MMAP event.

* perf tools: Introduce perf_session classArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2009-12-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | That does all the initialization boilerplate, opening the file, reading the header, checking if it is valid, etc. And that will as well have the threads list, kmap (now) global variable, etc, so that we can handle two (or more) perf.data files describing sessions to compare.
