perf trace: Add support for printing call chains on sys_exit events.

Now, one can print the call chain for every encountered sys_exit event,
e.g.:

    $ perf trace -e nanosleep --call-graph dwarf path/to/ex_sleep
    1005.757 (1000.090 ms): ex_sleep/13167 nanosleep(...) = 0

                                             __libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc-2.23.so)
                                             _start (path/to/ex_sleep)

Note that it is advised to increase the number of mmap pages to prevent
event losses when using this new feature. Often, adding `-m 10M` to the
`perf trace` invocation is enough.

This feature is also available in strace when built with libunwind via
`strace -k`. Performance wise, this solution is much better:

    $ time find path/to/linux &> /dev/null

    real    0m0.051s
    user    0m0.013s
    sys     0m0.037s

    $ time perf trace -m 800M --call-graph dwarf find path/to/linux &> /dev/null

    real    0m2.624s
    user    0m1.203s
    sys     0m1.333s

    $ time strace -k find path/to/linux  &> /dev/null

    real    0m35.398s
    user    0m10.403s
    sys     0m23.173s

Note that it is currently not possible to configure the print output.
Adding such a feature, similar to what is available in `perf script` via
its `--fields` knob can be added later on.

8 years agoperf symbols: Adjust symbol for shared objects
Wang Nan [Thu, 7 Apr 2016 10:24:31 +0000 (10:24 +0000)]
perf symbols: Adjust symbol for shared objects

He Kuang reported a problem that perf fails to get correct symbol on
Android platform in [1]. The problem can be reproduced on normal x86_64
platform. I will describe the reproducing steps in detail at the end of
commit message.

The reason of this problem is the missing of symbol adjustment for normal
shared objects. In most of the cases skipping adjustment is okay. However,
when '.text' section have different 'address' and 'offset' the result is wrong.
I checked all shared objects in my working platform, only wine dll objects and
debug objects (in .debug) have this problem. However, it is common on Android.
For example:

 $ readelf -S ./libsurfaceflinger.so | grep \.text
   [10] .text             PROGBITS         0000000000029030  00012030

This patch enables symbol adjustment for dynamic objects so the symbol
address got from elfutils would be adjusted correctly.

Now nearly all types of ELF files should adjust symbols. Makes
ss->adjust_symbols default to true.

Steps to reproduce the problem:

  $ cat ./Makefile
  PWD := $(shell pwd)
  LDFLAGS += "-Wl,-rpath=$(PWD)"
  CFLAGS += -g
  main: main.c libbuggy.so
  libbuggy.so: buggy.c
gcc -g -shared -fPIC -Wl,-Ttext-segment=0x200000 $< -o $@
  clean:
rm -rf main libbuggy.so *.o

  $ cat ./buggy.c
  int fib(int x)
  {
      return (x == 0) ? 1 : (x == 1) ? 1 : fib(x - 1) + fib(x - 2);
  }

  $ cat ./main.c
  #include <stdio.h>

  extern int fib(int x);
  int main()
  {
     int i;

     for (i = 0; i < 40; i++)
         printf("%d\n", fib(i));
     return 0;
 }

 $ make
 $ perf record ./main
 ...
 $ perf report --stdio
 # Overhead  Command  Shared Object      Symbol
 # ........  .......  .................  ...............................
 #
     14.97%  main     libbuggy.so        [.] 0x000000000000066c
      8.68%  main     libbuggy.so        [.] 0x00000000000006aa
      8.52%  main     libbuggy.so        [.] fib@plt
      7.95%  main     libbuggy.so        [.] 0x0000000000000664

      5.35%  main     libbuggy.so        [.] 0x0000000000000678

8 years agoperf symbols: Record text offset in dso to calculate objdump address

perf symbols: Record text offset in dso to calculate objdump address

In this patch, the offset of '.text' section is stored into dso
and used here to re-calculate address to objdump.

In most of the cases, executable code is in '.text' section, so the
adjustment made to a symbol in dso__load_sym (using
sym.st_value -= shdr.sh_addr - shdr.sh_offset) should equal to
'sym.st_value -= dso->text_offset'. Therefore, adding text_offset back
get objdump address from symbol address (rip). However, it is not true
for kernel and kernel module since there could be multiple executable
sections with different offset. Exclude kernel for this reason.

After this patch, even dso->adjust_symbols is set to true for shared
objects, map__rip_2objdump() and map__objdump_2mem() would return
correct result, so perf behavior of annotate won't be changed.

8 years agoperf script: Process event update events
Jiri Olsa [Thu, 7 Apr 2016 07:11:13 +0000 (09:11 +0200)]
perf script: Process event update events

Andreas reported following command produces no output:

  # cat test.py
  #!/usr/bin/env python

  def stat__krava(cpu, thread, time, val, ena, run):
      print "event %s cpu %d, thread %d, time %d, val %d, ena %d, run %d" % \

  ^C
  #

The reason is that 'perf script' does not process event update events and
will never get the event name update thus the python callback is never
called.

The fix is just to add already existing callback we use in 'perf stat
report'.

perf bpf: Add sample types for 'bpf-output' event

Before this patch we can see very large time in the events before the
'bpf-output' event. For example:

  # perf trace -vv -T --ev sched:sched_switch \
                      --ev bpf-output/no-inherit,name=evt/ \
                      --ev ./test_bpf_trace.c/map:channel.event=evt/ \
                      usleep 10
  ...
  18446744073709.551 (18446564645918.480 ms): usleep/4157 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffd3f0dc4e0) ...
  18446744073709.551 (         ): evt:Raise a BPF event!..)
  179427791.076 (         ): perf_bpf_probe:func_begin:(ffffffff810eb9a0))
  179427791.081 (         ): sched:sched_switch:usleep:4157 [120] S ==> swapper/2:0 [120])
  ...

We can also see the differences between bpf-output events and
breakpoint events:

For bpf output event:
   sample_type                    IP|TID|RAW|IDENTIFIER

For tracepoint events:
   sample_type                    IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD|RAW|IDENTIFIER

This patch fix this differences by adding more sample type for
bpf-output events.

After this patch:

  # perf trace -vv -T --ev sched:sched_switch \
                      --ev bpf-output/no-inherit,name=evt/ \

                        usleep 10 2>&1 | grep sample_type
  sample_type                      IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD|RAW
  sample_type                      IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD|RAW
  sample_type                      IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD|RAW
  sample_type                      IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD|RAW
  sample_type                      IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD|RAW
  sample_type                      IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD|RAW

The 'IDENTIFIER' info is not required because all events have the same
sample_type.

8 years agoperf tools: Add time conversion event
Adrian Hunter [Tue, 8 Mar 2016 08:38:44 +0000 (10:38 +0200)]
perf tools: Add time conversion event

Intel PT uses the time members from the perf_event_mmap_page to convert
between TSC and perf time.

Due to a lack of foresight when Intel PT was implemented, those time
members were recorded in the (implementation dependent) AUXTRACE_INFO
event, the structure of which is generally inaccessible outside of the
Intel PT decoder.  However now the conversion between TSC and perf time
is needed when processing a jitdump file when Intel PT has been used for
tracing.

So add a user event to record the time members.  'perf record' will
synthesize the event if the information is available.  And session
processing will put a copy of the event on the session so that tools
like 'perf inject' can easily access it.

perf/ring_buffer: Prepare writing into the ring-buffer from the end

Convert perf_output_begin() to __perf_output_begin() and make the later
function able to write records from the end of the ring-buffer.

Following commits will utilize the 'backward' flag.

This is the core patch to support writing to the ring-buffer backwards,
which will be introduced by upcoming patches to support reading from
overwritable ring-buffers.

In theory, this patch should not introduce any extra performance
overhead since we use always_inline, but it does not hurt to double
check that assumption:

When CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is disabled, the output object is nearly
identical to original one. See:

   http://lkml.kernel.org/g/56F52E83.70409@huawei.com

When CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is enabled, the resuling object file becomes
smaller:

 $ size kernel/events/ring_buffer.o*
   text       data        bss        dec        hex    filename
   4641          4          8       4653       122d kernel/events/ring_buffer.o.old
   4545          4          8       4557       11cd kernel/events/ring_buffer.o.new

Performance testing results:

Calling 3000000 times of 'close(-1)', use gettimeofday() to check
duration.  Use 'perf record -o /dev/null -e raw_syscalls:*' to capture
system calls. In ns.

Testing environment:

 CPU    : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60GHz
 Kernel : v4.5.0

                     MEAN         STDVAR
  BASE            800214.950    2853.083
  PRE            2253846.700    9997.014
  POST           2257495.540    8516.293

Where 'BASE' is pure performance without capturing. 'PRE' is test
result of pure 'v4.5.0' kernel. 'POST' is test result after this
patch.

Considering the stdvar, this patch doesn't hurt performance, within
noise margin.

Following commits can give a different default overflow_handler.

Initial idea comes from Peter:

  http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20130708121557.GA17211@twins.programming.kicks-ass.net

Since the default value of event->overflow_handler is not NULL, existing
'if (!overflow_handler)' checks need to be changed.

is_default_overflow_handler() is introduced for this.

No extra performance overhead is introduced into the hot path because in the
original code we still need to read this handler from memory. A conditional
branch is avoided so actually we remove some instructions.

x86/perf/intel/cstate: Make cstate hotplug handling actually work

The current implementation aside of being an incomprehensible mess is broken.

  # cat /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cstate_core/cpumask
  0-17

That's on a quad socket machine with 72 physical cores! Qualitee stuff.

So it's not a surprise that event migration in case of CPU hotplug does not
work either.

  # perf stat -e cstate_core/c6-residency/ -C 1 sleep 60 &
  # echo 0 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

Tracing cstate_pmu_event_update gives me:

 [001] cstate_pmu_event_update <-event_sched_out

After the fix it properly moves the event:

 [001] cstate_pmu_event_update <-event_sched_out
 [073] cstate_pmu_event_update <-__perf_event_read
 [073] cstate_pmu_event_update <-event_sched_out

The migration of pkg events does not work either. Not that I'm surprised.

I really could not be bothered to decode that loop mess and simply replaced it
by querying the proper cpumasks which give us the answer in a comprehensible
way.

This also requires to direct the event to the current active reader CPU in
cstate_pmu_event_init() otherwise the hotplug logic can't work.

perf hists: Fix determination of a callchain node's childlessness

The 4b3a3212233a ("perf hists browser: Support flat callchains") commit
over-aggressively tried to optimize callchain_node__init_have_children().

That lead to --tui mode not allowing to expand call chain elements if a
call chain element had only one parent. That's why --inverted callgraphs
looked halfway sane, but plain ones didn't.

perf tools: Add support for skipping itrace instructions

When using 'perf script' to look at PT traces it is often useful to
ignore the initialization code at the beginning.

On larger traces which may have many millions of instructions in
initialization code doing that in a pipeline can be very slow, with perf
script spending a lot of CPU time calling printf and writing data.

This patch adds an extension to the --itrace argument that skips 'n'
events (instructions, branches or transactions) at the beginning. This
is much more efficient.

v2:
Add support for BTS (Adrian Hunter)
Document in itrace.txt
Fix branch check

8 years agoperf script perl: Perl scripts now get a backtrace, like the python ones
Dima Kogan [Tue, 29 Mar 2016 15:47:53 +0000 (12:47 -0300)]
perf script perl: Perl scripts now get a backtrace, like the python ones

We have some infrastructure to use perl or python to analyze logs
generated by perf.  Prior to this patch, only the python tools had
access to backtrace information.  This patch makes this information
available to perl scripts as well.  Example:

  Let's look at malloc() calls made by the seq utility.  First we
  create a probe point:

      $ perf probe -x /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 malloc
      Added new events:
      ...

  Now we run seq, while monitoring malloc() calls with perf

      $ perf record --call-graph=dwarf -e probe_libc:malloc seq 5
      1
      2
      3
      4
      5
      [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
      [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.064 MB perf.data (6 samples) ]

  We can use perf to look at its log to see the malloc calls and the backtrace

      $ perf script
      seq 14195 [000] 1927993.748254: probe_libc:malloc: (7f9ff8edd320) bytes=0x22
                  7f9ff8edd320 malloc (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so)
                  7f9ff8e8eab0 set_binding_values.part.0 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so)
                  7f9ff8e8eda1 __bindtextdomain (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so)
                        401b22 main (/usr/bin/seq)
                  7f9ff8e82610 __libc_start_main (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so)
                        402799 _start (/usr/bin/seq)
      ...

  We can also use the scripting facilities.  We create a skeleton perl
  script that simply prints out the events

      $ perf script -g perl
      generated Perl script: perf-script.pl

  We can then use this script to see the malloc() calls with a
  backtrace.  Prior to this patch, the backtrace was not available to
  the perl scripts.

      $ perf script -s perf-script.pl
      probe_libc::malloc  0 1927993.748254260  14195 seq   __probe_ip=140325052863264, bytes=34

8 years agoperf tests: Fix tarpkg build test error output redirection
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo [Thu, 24 Mar 2016 14:22:43 +0000 (11:22 -0300)]
perf tests: Fix tarpkg build test error output redirection

So we need to trow away just stdout, leaving stderr to be caught by
the build tests infrastructure, so that we can see what went wrong
when the tarpkg build test fails:

  $ make -C tools/perf build-test
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
  - tarpkg: ./tests/perf-targz-src-pkg .
  tests/make:302: recipe for target 'tarpkg' failed
  make[1]: *** [tarpkg] Error 2
  Makefile:102: recipe for target 'build-test' failed
  make: *** [build-test] Error 2
  make: Leaving directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
  $ cat tools/perf/tarpkg
  ./tests/perf-targz-src-pkg .
    PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g05f5ec
    PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g05f5ec
  In file included from bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.S:9:0:
  bench/../../../arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S:5:29: fatal error: asm/cpufeatures.h: No such file or directory
  compilation terminated.
  mv: cannot stat ‘bench/.mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o.tmp’: No such file or directory
  make[5]: *** [bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o] Error 1
  make[5]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  make[4]: *** [bench] Error 2
  make[4]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  make[3]: *** [perf-in.o] Error 2
  make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
  $

So the test flow is:

1. Run: 'make -C tools/perf build-test'

2. One of its tests failed, in this case, the 'tarpkg' one

3. Look at what went wrong, by looking at the output of that test, in
   tools/perf/tarpkg

Admittedly, this should be shortcircuited to showing what went wrong directly
from the 'make build-test' step, but lets first fix this tarpkg one and the
problem it spotted, which should be fixed by adding some extra file to the
tools/perf/MANIFEST so that detached tarballs continue being self contained and
build successfully.

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-20160323' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes:

User visible fixes:

 - Fix documentation of :ppp modifier in 'perf list' (Andi Kleen)

 - Fix silly nodes bitfield bits/bytes length assertion in 'perf bench numa' (Jakub Jelen)

 - Remove redundant CPU output in libtraceevent (Steven Rostedt)

 - Remove 'core_id' check in topology 'perf test' (Sukadev Bhattiprolu)

Infrastructure changes/fixes:

 - Record text offset in dso to calculate objdump address, to use with
   modules in addition to vDSO symbol address calculations (Wang Nan)

 - Move utilities.mak from perf to tools/scripts/ (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

 - Add cpumode to the perf_sample struct, this way we don't need to pass
   the union event to the machine and thread resolving routines, shortening
   function signatures and allowing the future introduction of a way
   to use tracepoint events instead of the unavailable HW cycles counter on
   powerpc guests in perf kvm by just hooking on perf_evsel__parse_sample,
   at the end (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

 - Remove/unexport die() related infrastructure, that at some point will
   finally be removed (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

 - Adopt linux/stringify.h from the kernel sources, not to touch this
   kernel header from tools/ (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

 - Stop using strbuf for things we can instead trivially use libc's asprintf()
   (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

 - Ditch tools/lib/util/abspath.c, its only exported function was used at just
   one place and can be replaced by libc's realpath() (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

 - Use strerror_r() in the llvm infrastructure, tread safe, its what is used
   elsewhere in tools/perf/ (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Cleanups:

 - Removed misplaced or needless __maybe_unused/export (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
