14 years agoperf events: Allow per-task-per-cpu counters
Peter Zijlstra [Wed, 16 Dec 2009 16:55:54 +0000 (17:55 +0100)]
perf events: Allow per-task-per-cpu counters

In order to allow for per-task-per-cpu counters, useful for
scalability when profiling task hierarchies, we allow installing
events with event->cpu != -1 in task contexts.

__perf_event_sched_in() already skips events where ->cpu
mis-matches the current cpu, fix up __perf_install_in_context()
and __perf_event_enable() to also respect this filter.

This does lead to vary hard to interpret enabled/running times
for such counters, but I don't see a simple solution for that.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo [Wed, 16 Dec 2009 15:49:27 +0000 (13:49 -0200)]
perf diff: Use perf_session__fprintf_hists just like 'perf record'

That means that almost everything you can do with 'perf report'
can be done with 'perf diff', for instance:

$ perf record -f find / > /dev/null
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.062 MB perf.data (~2699

samples) ] perf diff | head -8
     9.02%     +1.00%     find  libc-2.10.1.so               [.] _IO_vfprintf_internal
     2.91%     -1.00%     find  [kernel]                     [k] __kmalloc

     2.44%                find  [kernel]                     [k] half_md4_transform
$

So if you want to zoom into libc:

$ perf diff --dsos libc-2.10.1.so | head -8
    37.34%                find  [.] _IO_vfprintf_internal
    10.34%                find  [.] __GI_memmove
     8.25%     +2.00%     find  [.] _int_malloc
     5.07%     -1.00%     find  [.] __GI_mempcpy
     7.62%     +2.00%     find  [.] _int_free
$

And if there were multiple commands using libc, it is also
possible to aggregate them all by using --sort symbol:

$ perf diff --dsos libc-2.10.1.so --sort symbol | head -8
    37.34%             [.] _IO_vfprintf_internal
    10.34%             [.] __GI_memmove
     8.25%     +2.00%  [.] _int_malloc
     5.07%     -1.00%  [.] __GI_mempcpy
     7.62%     +2.00%  [.] _int_free
$

The displacement column now is off by default, to use it:

perf diff -m --dsos libc-2.10.1.so --sort symbol | head -8
    37.34%                   [.] _IO_vfprintf_internal
    10.34%                   [.] __GI_memmove
     8.25%     +2.00%        [.] _int_malloc
     5.07%     -1.00%    +2  [.] __GI_mempcpy
     7.62%     +2.00%    -1  [.] _int_free
$

Using -t/--field-separator can be used for scripting:

$ perf diff -t, -m --dsos libc-2.10.1.so --sort symbol | head -8
37.34, , ,[.] _IO_vfprintf_internal

The --add syntax is:

e.g.

that it possible for an online CPU to have a number which is
greater than the total count of possible CPUs.

Currently find_get_context() has a sanity check on the cpu
number where it checks it against num_possible_cpus().  This
test can fail for a legitimate cpu number if the
cpu_possible_mask is sparsely populated.

This fixes the problem by checking the CPU number against
nr_cpumask_bits instead, since that is the appropriate check to
ensure that the cpu number is same to pass to cpu_isset()

To create the list, it searches each scripts/*/bin directory for

certain comment lines contained in those shell scripts:

  - if the comment line starts with "description:", the rest of the
    line is used as a 'half-line' description.  To keep each line in
    the list to a single line, the description should be limited to 40
    characters (the rest of the line contains the script name and
    args)

  - if the comment line starts with "args:", the rest of the line
    names the args the script supports.  Required args should be
    surrounded by <> brackets, optional args by [] brackets.

The current scripts in scripts/perl/bin have also been updated
with description: and args: comments.

perf tools: Introduce perf_session class

That does all the initialization boilerplate, opening the file,
reading the header, checking if it is valid, etc.

And that will as well have the threads list, kmap (now) global

describing sessions to compare.

14 years agoperf symbols: Allow lookups by symbol name too
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo [Fri, 11 Dec 2009 20:50:22 +0000 (18:50 -0200)]
perf symbols: Allow lookups by symbol name too

Configurable via symbol_conf.sort_by_name, so that the cost of an
extra rb_node on all 'struct symbol' instances is not paid by tools
that only want to decode addresses.

How to use it:

symbol_conf.sort_by_name = true;
symbol_init(&symbol_conf);

struct map *map = map_groups__find_by_name(kmaps, MAP__VARIABLE, "[kernel.kallsyms]");

if (map == NULL) {
pr_err("couldn't find map!\n");
kernel_maps__fprintf(stdout);
} else {
struct symbol *sym = map__find_symbol_by_name(map, sym_filter, NULL);
if (sym == NULL)
pr_err("couldn't find symbol %s!\n", sym_filter);
else
pr_info("symbol %s: %#Lx-%#Lx \n", sym_filter, sym->start, sym->end);
}

Looking over the vmlinux/kallsyms is common enough that I'll add a
variable to the upcoming struct perf_session to avoid the need to
use map_groups__find_by_name to get the main vmlinux/kallsyms map.

The above example looks on the 'variable' symtab, but it is just
like that for the functions one.

Also the sort operation is done when we first use
map__find_symbol_by_name, in a lazy way.

So introduce the 'map_groups' abstraction and use it for the kernel

It, in turn, will move, together with the threads list to the

Xiao Guangrong [Wed, 9 Dec 2009 09:51:30 +0000 (17:51 +0800)]
perf sched: Fix for getting task's execution time

In current code, task's execute time is got by reading
'/proc/<pid>/sched' file, it's wrong if the task is created
by pthread_create(), because every thread task has same pid.

This way also has two demerits:

 1: 'perf sched replay' can't work if the kernel is not
    compiled with the 'CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG' option

 2: perf tool should depend on proc file system

So, this patch uses PERF_COUNT_SW_TASK_CLOCK to get task's
execution time instead of reading /proc file.

Changelog v2 -> v3:
use PERF_COUNT_SW_TASK_CLOCK instead of rusage() as Ingo's
suggestion

hw-breakpoints: Modify breakpoints without unregistering them

Currently, when ptrace needs to modify a breakpoint, like disabling
it, changing its address, type or len, it calls
modify_user_hw_breakpoint(). This latter will perform the heavy and
racy task of unregistering the old breakpoint and registering a new
one.

This is racy as someone else might steal the reserved breakpoint
slot under us, which is undesired as the breakpoint is only
supposed to be modified, sometimes in the middle of a debugging
workflow. We don't want our slot to be stolen in the middle.

So instead of unregistering/registering the breakpoint, just
disable it while we modify its breakpoint fields and re-enable it
after if necessary.

perf probe: Fix event namelist to duplicate string

Fix event namelist to duplicate string. Without duplicating, adding
multiple probes causes stack overwrite bug, because it reuses a
buffer on stack while the buffer is already added in the namelist.
String duplication solves this bug because only contents of the
buffer is copied to the namelist.
