* perf tools: Make the breakpoint events sample period default to 1Jovi Zhang2012-07-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There have one problem about hw_breakpoint perf event, as watched, the events reported to userspace is not correctly, sometime one trigger bp_event report several events, sometime bp_event cannot go through to user. The root cause is attr->freq is 1 passed to kernel defaultly in bp events, this make kernel calculate event period not as expect, make sample period to 1 will change attr->freq to 0, to fix this problem. This patch is similar with commit f92128 about tracepoint events: perf: Make the trace events sample period default to 1 Signed-off-by: Jovi Zhang <bookjovi@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/CACV3sbLF8taiCq_VYW-sgRJyupeMzg58C7ZXfMe3xZUiH_Mx6w@mail.gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
* perf tools: Fix trace events storms due to weight demuxFrederic Weisbecker2012-07-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Trace events have a period (weight) of 1 by default. This can be overriden on events definition by using the __perf_count() macro. For example, the sched_stat_runtime() is weighted with the runtime of the task that fired the event. By default, perf handles such weighted event by dividing it into individual events carrying a weight of 1. For example if sched_stat_runtime is fired and the task has run 5000000 nsecs, perf divides it into 5000000 events in the buffer. This behaviour makes weighted events unusable because they quickly fullfill the buffers and we lose most events. The commit 5d81e5cfb37a174e8ddc0413e2e70cdf05807ace ("events: Don't divide events if it has field period") solves this problem by sending only one event when PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD flag is set. The weight is carried in the sample itself such that we don't need to demultiplex it anymore. This patch provides the last missing piece to use this feature by setting PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD from perf tools when we deal with trace events.

* | perf/tool: Add support to reuse event grammar to parse out termsJiri Olsa2012-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We want to reuse the event grammar for parsing aliased terms. The obvious reason is we dont need to add new code when there's already support for this in event grammar. Doing this by adding terms and event start entries into event parse grammar. The grammar forks on the begining based on the starting token, which is supplied via bison interface into the lexer. The lexer then returns the starting token as the first token, thus making the grammar switch accordingly. Currently 2 starting tokens/grammars are supported: PE_START_TERMS, PE_START_EVENTS The PE_START_TERMS related grammar uses 'event_config' part of the grammar for term parsing.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The modifiers: k kernel space u user space h hypervisor G guest H host p, pp, ppp precision level (PEBS) that can be suffixed to an event were lost when tools used event_name() to reconstruct them from the perf_event_attr entries in a perf.data file.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a buffer overrun bug in tracepoint_id_to_path(). The bug manisfested itself as a memory error reported by perf record. I ran into it with perf sched: $ perf sched rec noploop 2 noploop for 2 seconds [ perf record: Woken up 14 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 42.701 MB perf.data (~1865622 samples) ] Fatal: No memory to alloc tracepoints list It turned out that tracepoint_id_to_path() was reading the tracepoint id using read() but the buffer was not large enough to include the \n terminator for id with 4 digits or more. The patch fixes the problem by extending the buffer to a more reasonable size covering all possible id length include \n terminator. Note that atoll() stops at the first non digit character, thus it is not necessary to clear the buffer between each read.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added new event rule to the event definition grammar: event_def: event_pmu | ... event_pmu: PE_NAME '/' event_config '/' Using this rule, event could be now specified like: cpu/config=1,config1=2,config2=3/u where pmu name 'cpu' is looked up via following path: ${sysfs_mount}/bus/event_source/devices/${pmu} and config options are bound to the pmu's format definiton: ${sysfs_mount}/bus/event_source/devices/${pmu}/format The hardcoded config options still stays and have precedence over any format field defined with same name.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We don't need to have two PATH_MAX char sized arrays holding it, just one in util/debugfs.c will do. Also rename debugfs_path to tracing_events_path, as it is not the path to debugfs, that is debugfs_mountpoint. Both are now accessible. This will allow accessing this code in the perf python binding without having to drag in perf.c and util/parse-events.c. The defaults for these variables are the canonical "/sys/kernel/debug" and "/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/", removing the need for simple tools to call debugfs_mount(NULL).

* perf: make perf stat print user provided full event namesStephane Eranian2011-02-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the way perf stat prints event names at the end of a run. Until now, it was trying to reconstruct the event name from its encoding. The problem is that it would only print generic events without their modifiers (u, k, pp). This patch saves the event name as passed by the user in the evsel struct and uses it to print the final event name. This would also work in case perf is linked with a library (such as libpfm4) which provides full PMU event tables. $ perf stat -e cycles:u,cycles:k date Wed Feb 16 14:58:52 CET 2011 Performance counter stats for 'date': 568600 cycles:u 2779715 cycles:k 0.001908182 seconds time elapsed Cc: Arun Sharma <arun@sharma-home.net> Cc: David S.

* perf tools: Pass the struct opt to the wildcard parsing routineArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2011-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is needed because it will call parse_event for each tracepoint name that matches, and we pass the perf_evlist via opt->value. Problem introduced in 4503fdd where my assumption about opt being always non NULL made me not look at callers of parse_events outside builtin-*.c.

* perf evsel: Introduce perf_evlistArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2011-01-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Killing two more perf wide global variables: nr_counters and evsel_list as a list_head. There are more operations that will need more fields in perf_evlist, like the pollfd for polling all the fds in a list of evsel instances. Use option->value to pass the evsel_list to parse_{events,filters}.
