* perf tools: Use an accessor to read thread commFrederic Weisbecker2013-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As the thread comm is going to be implemented by way of a more complicated data structure than just a pointer to a string from the thread struct, convert the readers of comm to use an accessor instead of accessing it directly. The accessor will be later overriden to support an enhanced comm implementation.

| * perf tools: Remove cast of non-variadic function to variadicMichael Hudson-Doyle2013-11-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 4fb71074a570 (perf ui/hist: Consolidate hpp helpers) cset introduced a cast of percent_color_snprintf to a function pointer type with varargs. Change percent_color_snprintf to be variadic and remove the cast. The symptom of this was all percentages being reported as 0.00% in perf report --stdio output on the armhf arch.

| * perf script python: Fix mem leak due to missing Py_DECREFs on dict entriesJoseph Schuchart2013-10-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We are using the Python scripting interface in perf to extract kernel events relevant for performance analysis of HPC codes. We noticed that the "perf script" call allocates a significant amount of memory (in the order of several 100 MiB) during it's run, e.g. 125 MiB for a 25 MiB input file: $> perf record -o perf.data -a -R -g fp \ -e power:cpu_frequency -e sched:sched_switch \ -e sched:sched_migrate_task -e sched:sched_process_exit \ -e sched:sched_process_fork -e sched:sched_process_exec \ -e cycles -m 4096 --freq 4000 $> /usr/bin/time perf script -i perf.data -s dummy_script.py 0.84user 0.13system 0:01.92elapsed 51%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 125532maxresident)k 73072inputs+0outputs (57major+33086minor)pagefaults 0swaps Upon further investigation using the valgrind massif tool, we noticed that Python objects that are created in trace-event-python.c via PyString_FromString*() (and their Integer and Long counterparts) are never free'd. The reason for this seem to be missing Py_DECREF calls on the objects that are returned by these functions and stored in the Python dictionaries. The Python dictionaries do not steal references (as opposed to Python tuples and lists) but instead add their own reference. Hence, the reference that is returned by these object creation functions is never released and the memory is leaked. (see [1,2]) The attached patch fixes this by wrapping all relevant calls to PyDict_SetItemString() and decrementing the reference counter immediately after the Python function call. This reduces the allocated memory to a reasonable amount: $> /usr/bin/time perf script -i perf.data -s dummy_script.py 0.73user 0.05system 0:00.79elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 49132maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+14045minor)pagefaults 0swaps For comparison, with a 120 MiB input file the memory consumption reported by time drops from almost 600 MiB to 146 MiB. The patch has been tested using Linux 3.8.2 with Python 2.7.4 and Linux 3.11.6 with Python 2.7.5. Please let me know if you need any further information.

| * perf: Disable PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 supportStephane Eranian2013-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For now, we disable the extended MMAP record support (MMAP2). We have identified cases where it would not report the correct mapping information, clone(VM_CLONE) but with separate pids. We will revisit the support once we find a solution for this case. The patch changes the kernel to return EINVAL if attr->mmap2 is set. The patch also modifies the perf tool to use regular PERF_RECORD_MMAP for synthetic events and it also prevents the tool from requesting attr->mmap2 mode because the kernel would reject it. The support will be revisited once the kenrel interface is updated. In V2, we reduce the patch to the strict minimum. In V3, we avoid calling perf_event_open() with mmap2 set because we know it will fail and require fallback retry.

Usually the callgraph data that developers are most interested in are the first few levels, the rests are usually not looked at. This patch adds a new --max-stack option to perf-report to limit the depth of callchain stack data to look at to reduce the time it takes for perf-report to finish its processing.

* | perf tools: Compare dso's also when comparing symbolsNamhyung Kim2013-10-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Linus reported that sometimes 'perf report -s symbol' exits without any message on TUI. David and Jiri found that it's because it failed to add a hist entry due to an invalid symbol length. It turns out that sorting by symbol (address) was broken since it only compares symbol addresses. The symbol address is a relative address within a dso thus just checking its address can result in merging unrelated symbols together. Fix it by checking dso before comparing symbol address.

* | perf buildid-cache: Add ability to add kcore to the cacheAdrian Hunter2013-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kcore can be used to view the running kernel object code. However, kcore changes as modules are loaded and unloaded, and when the kernel decides to modify its own code. Consequently it is useful to create a copy of kcore at a particular time. Unlike vmlinux, kcore is not unique for a given build-id. And in addition, the kallsyms and modules files are also needed. The tool therefore creates a directory: ~/.debug/[kernel.kcore]/<build-id>/<YYYYmmddHHMMSShh> which contains: kcore, kallsyms and modules. Note that the copied kcore contains only code sections. See the kcore_copy() function for how that is determined. The tool will not make additional copies of kcore if there is already one with the same modules at the same addresses. Currently, perf tools will not look for kcore in the cache. That is addressed in another patch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The objdump tool fails to annotate module symbols when looking at kcore. Workaround this by extracting object code from kcore and putting it in a temporary file for objdump to use instead. The temporary file is created to look like kcore but contains only the function being disassembled.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before using kcore we need to check that modules are in memory at the same addresses that they were when data was recorded. This is done because, while we could remap symbols to different addresses, the object code linkages would still be different which would provide an erroneous view of the object code.
