From: Adrian Hunter Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2015 13:15:45 +0000 (+0300) Subject: perf intel-pt: Support generating branch stack X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f14445ee72c59f32aa5cbf4d0f0330a5f62a752d;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git perf intel-pt: Support generating branch stack Add support for generating branch stack context for PT samples. The decoder reports a configurable number of branches as branch context for each sample. Internally it keeps track of them by using a simple sliding window. We also flush the last branch buffer on each sample to avoid overlapping intervals. This is useful for: - Reporting accurate basic block edge frequencies through the perf report branch view - Using with --branch-history to get the wider context of samples - Other users of LBRs Also the Documentation is updated. Examples: Record with Intel PT: perf record -e intel_pt//u ls Branch stacks are used by default if synthesized so: perf report --itrace=ile is the same as: perf report --itrace=ile -b Branch history can be requested also: perf report --itrace=igle --branch-history Based-on-patch-by: Andi Kleen Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter Cc: Jiri Olsa Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1443186956-18718-15-git-send-email-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo --- diff --git a/tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt b/tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt index 886612b50961..a0fbb5d71f7d 100644 --- a/tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt +++ b/tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt @@ -671,6 +671,7 @@ The letters are: e synthesize tracing error events d create a debug log g synthesize a call chain (use with i or x) + l synthesize last branch entries (use with i or x) "Instructions" events look like they were recorded by "perf record -e instructions". @@ -718,6 +719,15 @@ transactions events can be specified. e.g. --itrace=ig32 --itrace=xg32 +Also the number of last branch entries (default 64, max. 1024) for instructions or +transactions events can be specified. e.g. + + --itrace=il10 + --itrace=xl10 + +Note that last branch entries are cleared for each sample, so there is no overlap +from one sample to the next. + To disable trace decoding entirely, use the option --no-itrace. diff --git a/tools/perf/util/intel-pt.c b/tools/perf/util/intel-pt.c index 2c01e723826a..05e8fcc5188b 100644 --- a/tools/perf/util/intel-pt.c +++ b/tools/perf/util/intel-pt.c @@ -22,6 +22,7 @@ #include "../perf.h" #include "session.h" #include "machine.h" +#include "sort.h" #include "tool.h" #include "event.h" #include "evlist.h" @@ -115,6 +116,9 @@ struct intel_pt_queue { void *decoder;
