* perf tools: Fix x86 builds with ARCH specified on the command lineDavid Ahern2012-09-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | e.g., compiling i386 on x86_64 using: $ make -C tools/perf ARCH=i386 fails with: CC /tmp/pbuild/util/evsel.o In file included from util/evsel.c:21:0: util/perf_regs.h:5:23: fatal error: perf_regs.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. Adding V=1 you see that the include argument for the arch is '-Iarch/i386/include' is wrong. It is supposed to be -Iarch/x86/include per the redefinition of ARCH in the Makefile. According to the make manual, http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Override-Directive: "If a variable has been set with a command argument (see Overriding Variables), then ordinary assignments in the makefile are ignored. If you want to set the variable in the makefile even though it was set with a command argument, you can use an override directive ..." Make it so.

* 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: Catch event names from command lineRobert Richter2012-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use command line string provided by the -e option to name events. This way we get unique events names that also support pmu event syntax (<pmu_name>/<config>/<modifier>). No need to reconstruct the name anymore from its attributes. We use the event_desc of the header to store the name in the perf.data header. Thus it is also available for perf report. Implemented by putting the parser in different states to parse events or configs. And since event names are now generated from the command line specification. Update event names in test cases accordingly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we use a separate output directory, we add util/ to the include path for the generated C files. However, this is currently added to the end of the path, behind /usr/include/slang and /usr/include/gtk-2.0 if use of the respective libraries is enabled. Thus the '#include "../perf.h"' in util/parse-events.l can actually include /usr/include/perf.h if it exists. Move '-Iutil/' ahead of all the other preprocessor options.

* perf tools: Enable grouping logic for parsed eventsJiri Olsa2012-08-14

Adding functionality to the '{}' group syntax introduced in earlier patch. The current '--group/-g' option behaviour remains intact. If you specify it for record/stat/top command, all the specified events become members of a single group with the first event as a group leader. With the new '{}' group syntax you can create group like: # perf record -e '{cycles,faults}' ls resulting in single event group containing 'cycles' and 'faults' events, with cycles event as group leader. All groups are created with regards to threads and cpus. Thus recording an event group within a 2 threads on server with 4 CPUs will create 8 separate groups. Examples (first event in brackets is group leader): # 1 group (cpu-clock,task-clock) perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock ls perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock}' ls # 2 groups (cpu-clock,task-clock) (minor-faults,major-faults) perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock},{minor-faults,major-faults}' ls # 1 group (cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults) perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock -e minor-faults,major-faults ls perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults}' ls # 2 groups (cpu-clock,task-clock) (minor-faults,major-faults) perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock} -e '{minor-faults,major-faults}' \ -e instructions ls # 1 group # (cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults,instructions) perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock \ -e minor-faults,major-faults -e instructions ls perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults,instructions}' ls It's possible to use standard event modifier for a group, which spans over all events in the group and updates each event modifier settings, for example: # perf record -r '{faults:k,cache-references}:p' resulting in ':kp' modifier being used for 'faults' and ':p' modifier being used for 'cache-references' event.

* perf tools: Add support to update event modifierJiri Olsa2012-08-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adding support to update already defined event's attribute with event modifier. This change will allow to use group modifier as an update to the existing event modifiers. Adding 'add' parameter to the parse_events__modifier_event function. Calling it with 'add' = false/true, the event modifier is initialized/updated respectively. Added exclude_GH flag to evsel struct, because we need to remember if one of 'GH' modifiers was used for event. The reason is that the default settings for exclude_guest is 1 and during the group modifier processing we have no other way of knowing if it was set by default or by event modifier. Keeping the current behaviour, that any event/group modifier reset the defaults for exclude_host (0) and exclude_guest (1).

It'll be used as an update to existing event modifiers. It's necessary to use quoting ("'\) when specifying group on command line, since {} characters are interpreted by most of the shells. It is now possible to specify groups in event syntax like: '{cycles,faults}' - anonymous group 'group1{cycles,faults} - group with name 'group1' '{cycles,faults}:k - anonymous group with event modifier 'k' '{cpu-clock,task-clock},{minor-faults,major-faults}' - two anonymous groups The grouping functionality itself is coming shortly.

* perf symbols: Use both runtime and debug imagesCody P Schafer2012-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We keep both a 'runtime' elf image as well as a 'debug' elf image around and generate symbols by looking at both of these. This eliminates the need for the want_symtab/goto restart mechanism combined with iterating over and reopening the elf images a second time. Also give dso__synthsize_plt_symbols() the runtime image (which has dynsyms) instead of the symbol image (which may only have a symtab and no dynsyms). Previously if a debug image was found all runtime images were ignored. This fixes 2 issues: - Symbol resolution to failure on PowerPC systems with debug symbols installed, as the debug images lack a '.opd' section which contains function descriptors. - On all archs, plt synthesis failed when a debug image was loaded and that debug image lacks a dynsym section while a runtime image has a dynsym section. Assumptions: - If a .opd section exists, it is contained in the highest priority image with a dynsym section. - This generally implies that the debug image lacks a dynsym section (ie: it is marked as NO_BITS).

The next patch ("perf symbol: use both runtime and debug images") adjusts the callsite in dso__load() to take advantage of being able to pass both runtime & debug images. Assumptions made here: - The opd section, if it exists in the runtime image, has headers in both the runtime image and the debug/syms image. - The index of the opd section (again, only if it exists in the runtime image) is the same in both the runtime and debug/symbols image. Both of these are true on RHEL, but it is unclear how accurate they are in general (on platforms with function descriptors in opd sections).

* perf symbols: Simplify out_fixup in kernel syms loadingCody P Schafer2012-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The only site that jumps to out_fixup has (kallsyms_filename == NULL). And all paths that reach 'if (err > 0)' without 'goto out_fixup' have kallsyms_filename != NULL. So skip over both the check & dso__set_long_name(), and remove the check.

* perf symbols: Remove unused 'end' arg in kallsyms parse cbCody P Schafer2012-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kallsyms__parse() takes a callback that is called on every discovered symbol. As /proc/kallsyms does not supply symbol sizes, the callback was simply called with end=start, faking the symbol size to 1. All of the callbacks (there are 2) used in calls to kallsyms__parse() are _only_ used as callbacks for kallsyms__parse(). Given that kallsyms__parse() lacks real information about what end/length should be, don't make up a length in kallsyms__parse(). Instead have the callbacks handle guessing the length. Also relocate a comment regarding symbol creation to the callback which does symbol creation (kallsyms__parse() is not in general used to create symbols).
