| * | | | perf tools: Initial python bindingArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2011-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | First clarifying that this kind of binding is not a replacement or an equivalent to the 'perf script' way of using python with perf. The 'perf script' way is to process events and look at a given script for some python function that matches the events to pass each event for processing. This is a python module, i.e. everything is driven from the python script, that merely uses "import perf" or "from perf import". perf script is focused on tracepoints, this binding is focused on profiling as an initial target. More work is needed to make available tracepoint specific variables as event variables accessible via this binding. There is one example of such usage model, in tools/perf/python/twatch.py, a tool to watch "cycles" events together with task (fork, exit) and comm perf events. For now, due to me not being able to grok how python distutils cope with building C extensions outside the sources dir the install target just builds it, I'm using it as: [root@emilia linux]# export PYTHONPATH=~acme/git/build/perf/lib.linux-x86_64-2.6/ [root@emilia linux]# tools/perf/python/twatch.py cpu: 4, pid: 30126, tid: 30126 { type: mmap, pid: 30126, tid: 30126, start: 0x4, length: 0x82e9ca03, offset: 0, filename: } cpu: 6, pid: 47, tid: 47 { type: mmap, pid: 47, tid: 47, start: 0x6, length: 0xbef87c36, offset: 0, filename: } cpu: 1, pid: 0, tid: 0 { type: mmap, pid: 0, tid: 0, start: 0x1, length: 0x775d1904, offset: 0, filename: } cpu: 7, pid: 0, tid: 0 { type: mmap, pid: 0, tid: 0, start: 0x7, length: 0xc750aeb6, offset: 0, filename: } cpu: 5, pid: 2255, tid: 2255 { type: mmap, pid: 2255, tid: 2255, start: 0x5, length: 0x76669635, offset: 0, filename: } cpu: 0, pid: 0, tid: 0 { type: mmap, pid: 0, tid: 0, start: 0, length: 0x6422ef6b, offset: 0, filename: } cpu: 2, pid: 2255, tid: 2255 { type: mmap, pid: 2255, tid: 2255, start: 0x2, length: 0xe078757a, offset: 0, filename: } cpu: 1, pid: 5769, tid: 5769 { type: fork, pid: 30127, ppid: 5769, tid: 30127, ptid: 5769, time: 103893991270534} cpu: 6, pid: 30127, tid: 30127 { type: comm, pid: 30127, tid: 30127, comm: ls } cpu: 6, pid: 30127, tid: 30127 { type: exit, pid: 30127, ppid: 30127, tid: 30127, ptid: 30127, time: 103893993273024} The first 8 mmap events in this 8 way machine are a mistery that is still being investigated. More of the tools/perf/util/ APIs will be exposed via this python binding as the need arises. For now the focus is on creating events and processing them, symbol resolution is an obvious next step, with tracepoint variables as a close second step.

The patch that moved this out of perf top was made so that this routine could be used by 'perf probe' in the uprobes patchset, so perhaps there they need to check for LOST events and warn the user, as will be done in the following patches that will switch 'perf top' to non overwrite mode (mmap with PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE).

| * | | | perf tools: Add strfilter for general purpose string filterMasami Hiramatsu2011-01-28

Every filter rules are descrived by glob matching pattern and '!' prefix which means Logical NOT. A strfilter consists of those filter rules connected with '&' and '|'. A set of rules can be folded by using '(' and ')'. It also accepts spaces around rules and those operators. Format: <rule> ::= <glob-exp> | "!" <rule> | <rule> <op> <rule> | "(" <rule> ")" <op> ::= "&" | "|" e.g.: "(add* | del*) & *timer" filter rules pass strings which start with add or del and end with timer. This will be used by perf probe --filter. Changes in V2: - Fix to check result of strdup() and strfilter__alloc(). - Encapsulate and simplify interfaces as like regex(3).

As a result we iterate over each callchains three times: - 1st to resolve symbols - 2nd to filter out context boundaries - 3rd for the insertion into the tree This also involves some pairs of memory allocation/deallocation everytime we insert a callchain, for the filtered out array of addresses and for the array of symbols that comes along. Instead, feed the callchains through a linked list with persistent allocations. It brings several pros like: - Merge the 1st and 2nd iterations in one. That was possible before but in a way that would involve allocating an array slightly taller than necessary because we don't know in advance the number of context boundaries to filter out. - Much lesser allocations/deallocations. The linked list keeps persistent empty entries for the next usages and is extendable at will. - Makes it easier for multiple sources of callchains to feed a stacktrace together. This is deemed to pave the way for cfi based callchains wherein traditional frame pointer based kernel stacktraces will precede cfi based user ones, producing an overall callchain which size is hardly predictable. This requirement makes the static array obsolete and makes a linked list based iterator a much more flexible fit. Basic testing on a big perf file containing callchains (~ 176 MB) has shown a throughput gain of about 11% with perf report.

The methods moved from perf_evsel to perf_evlist, but for easing review they were modified in place, in evsel.c, the next patch will move the migrated methods to evlist.c.

On a machine with a lot cpus I often saw the last cpu missing. Check for (max) numcpus on every event happening and in the beginning. -> fixes the issue for me.

So I investigated this and noticed that when we introduced support for recording a process and its threads using --pid some bugs were introduced and that the way to fix it was to instead of passing the target_tid to the event synthesizing routines we should better pass the thread_map that has the list of threads for a --pid or just the single thread for a --tid.
