* perf tools: Default to cpu// for events v5Andi Kleen2013-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an event fails to parse and it's not in a new style format, try to parse it again as a cpu event. This allows to use sysfs exported events directly without //, so you can use perf record -e mem-loads ... instead of perf record -e cpu/mem-loads/ Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1366480949-32292-1-git-send-email-andi@firstfloor.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
* perf tools: Fix PMU format parsing test failureSukadev Bhattiprolu2013-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On POWER, the 'perf format parsing' test always fails. Looks like it is because memset() is being passed number of longs rather than number of bytes. It is interesting that the test always passes on my x86 box. With this patch, the test passes on POWER and continues to pass on x86.

* rbtree: adjust node color in __rb_erase_color() only when necessaryMichel Lespinasse2012-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In __rb_erase_color(), we were always setting a node to black after exiting the main loop. And in one case, after fixing up the tree to satisfy all rbtree invariants, we were setting the current node to root just to guarantee a loop exit, at which point the root would be set to black. However this is not necessary, as the root of an rbtree is already known to be black. The only case where the color flip is required is when we exit the loop due to the current node being red, and it's easiest to just do the flip at that point instead of doing it after the loop.

* perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variablesIrina Tirdea2012-09-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* perf bench: fix assert when NDEBUG is definedIrina Tirdea2012-09-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When NDEBUG is defined, the assert macro will be expanded to nothing. Some assert calls used in perf are also including some functionality (e.g. system calls), not only validity checks. Therefore, if NDEBUG is defined, this functionality will be removed along with the assert. Perf also defines BUG_ON based on assert, so it has the same problem. Define BUG_ON so that the condition will be executed when NDEBUG is defined. Replace the assert statements that have these side effects with BUG_ON. For defining BUG_ON, use "if (cond) {}" insted of "if (cond) ;" because in the latter case build fails with "error: suggest braces around empty body in an ‘if’ statement [-Werror=empty-body]" Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Irina Tirdea <irina.tirdea@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung.kim@lge.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1347082551-2394-1-git-send-email-irina.tirdea@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

(modern x86 Intel CPUs with the 'LBR' hardware feature currently.) This new feature is basically a sophisticated 'magnifying glass' for branch execution - something that is pretty difficult to extract from regular, function histogram centric profiles. The simplest mode is activated via 'perf record -b', and the result looks like this in perf report: $ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy $ perf report -b --sort=symbol 52.34% [.] main [.] f1 24.04% [.] f1 [.] f3 23.60% [.] f1 [.] f2 0.01% [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn [k] _IO_file_overflow 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] strchrnul 0.01% [k] __printf [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal 0.01% [k] main [k] __printf This output shows from/to branch columns and shows the highest percentage (from,to) jump combinations - i.e. the most likely taken branches in the system. "branches" can also include function calls and any other synchronous and asynchronous transitions of the instruction pointer that are not 'next instruction' - such as system calls, traps, interrupts, etc. This feature comes with (hopefully intuitive) flat ascii and TUI support in perf report. - Various 'perf annotate' visual improvements for us assembly junkies. It will now recognize function calls in the TUI and by hitting enter you can follow the call (recursively) and back, amongst other improvements. - Multiple threads/processes recording support in perf record, perf stat, perf top - which is activated via a comma-list of PIDs: perf top -p 21483,21485 perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd perf record -p 21483,21485 - Support for per UID views, via the --uid paramter to perf top, perf report, etc. For example 'perf top --uid mingo' will only show the tasks that I am running, excluding other users, root, etc. - Jump label restructurings and improvements - this includes the factoring out of the (hopefully much clearer) include/linux/static_key.h generic facility: struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE; ... if (static_key_false(&key)) do unlikely code else do likely code ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... The static_key_false() branch will be generated into the code with as little impact to the likely code path as possible. the static_key_slow_*() APIs flip the branch via live kernel code patching. This facility can now be used more widely within the kernel to micro-optimize hot branches whose likelihood matches the static-key usage and fast/slow cost patterns. - SW function tracer improvements: perf support and filtering support. - Various hardenings of the perf.data ABI, to make older perf.data's smoother on newer tool versions, to make new features integrate more smoothly, to support cross-endian recording/analyzing workflows better, etc. - Restructuring of the kprobes code, the splitting out of 'optprobes', and a corner case bugfix. - Allow the tracing of kernel console output (printk). - Improvements/fixes to user-space RDPMC support, allowing user-space self-profiling code to extract PMU counts without performing any system calls, while playing nice with the kernel side. - 'perf bench' improvements - ... and lots of internal restructurings, cleanups and fixes that made these features possible.

* 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: Bring linear set of section headers for featuresFrederic Weisbecker2009-11-11

Each implemented feature will have one of such section header that provides the offset and the size of the data manipulated by the feature. The trace informations have moved after the data and are recorded on exit time. The new layout is as follows: ----------------------- ___ [ magic ] | [ header size ] | [ attr size ] | [ attr content offset ] | [ attr content size ] | [ data offset ] File Headers [ data size ] | [ event_types offset ] | [ event_types size ] | [ feature bitmap ] v [ attr section ] [ events section ] ___ [ X ] | [ X ] | [ X ] Datas [ X ] | [ X ] v ___ [ Feature 1 offset ] | [ Feature 1 size ] Features headers [ Feature 2 offset ] | [ Feature 2 size ] v [ Feature 1 content ] [ Feature 2 content ] ----------------------- We have as many feature's section headers as we have features in use for the current file. Say Feat 1 and Feat 3 are used by the file, but not Feat 2. Then the feature headers will be like follows: [ Feature 1 offset ] | [ Feature 1 size ] Features headers [ Feature 3 offset ] | [ Feature 3 size ] v There is no hole to cover Feature 2 that is not in use here. We only need to cover the needed headers in order, from the lowest feature bit to the highest. Currently we have two features: HEADER_TRACE_INFO and HEADER_BUILD_ID. Both have their contents that follow the feature headers. Putting the contents right after the feature headers is not mandatory though. While we keep the feature headers right after the data and in order, their offsets can point everywhere. We have just put the two above feature contents in the end of the file for convenience. The purpose of this layout change is to have a file format that scales while keeping it simple: having such linear feature headers is less error prone wrt forward/backward compatibility as the content of a feature can be put anywhere, its location can even change by the time, it's fine because its headers will tell where it is. And we know how to find these headers, following the above rules.

* perf tools: Unify debug messages mechanismsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2009-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We were using eprintf in some places, that looks at a global 'verbose' level, and at other places passing a 'v' parameter to specify the verbosity level, unify it by introducing pr_{err,warning,debug,etc}, just like in the kernel.

* perf tools: Drop asm/types.h wrapperFrederic Weisbecker2009-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Wrapping the kernel headers is dangerous when it comes to arch headers. Once we wrap asm/types.h, it will also replace the glibc asm/types.h, not only the kernel one. This results in build errors on some machines. Drop this wrapper and do its work from linux/types.h wrapper, also the glibc asm/types.h can already handle most of the type definition it was doing (typedef __u64, __u32, etc...). Todo: Check the others asm/*.h wrappers to prevent from other conflicts.

* perf tools: Use DECLARE_BITMAP instead of an open-coded arrayFrederic Weisbecker2009-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use DECLARE_BITMAP instead of an open coded array for our bitmap of featured sections. This makes the array an unsigned long instead of a u64 but since we use a 256 bits bitmap, the array size shouldn't vary between different boxes.
