15 years agoperf tools: Consolidate symbol resolving across all tools
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo [Fri, 27 Nov 2009 18:29:23 +0000 (16:29 -0200)]
perf tools: Consolidate symbol resolving across all tools

Now we have a very high level routine for simple tools to
process IP sample events:

int event__preprocess_sample(const event_t *self,
     struct addr_location *al,
     symbol_filter_t filter)

It receives the event itself and will insert new threads in the
global threads list and resolve the map and symbol, filling all
this info into the new addr_location struct, so that tools like
annotate and report can further process the event by creating
hist_entries in their specific way (with or without callgraphs,
etc).

It in turn uses the new next layer function:

void thread__find_addr_location(struct thread *self, u8 cpumode,
enum map_type type, u64 addr,
struct addr_location *al,
symbol_filter_t filter)

This one will, given a thread (userspace or the kernel kthread
one), will find the given type (MAP__FUNCTION now, MAP__VARIABLE
too in the near future) at the given cpumode, taking vdsos into
account (userspace hit, but kernel symbol) and will fill all
these details in the addr_location given.

Tools that need a more compact API for plain function
resolution, like 'kmem', can use this other one:

struct symbol *thread__find_function(struct thread *self, u64 addr,
     symbol_filter_t filter)

So, to resolve a kernel symbol, that is all the 'kmem' tool
needs, its just a matter of calling:

sym = thread__find_function(kthread, addr, NULL);

The 'filter' parameter is needed because we do lazy
parsing/loading of ELF symtabs or /proc/kallsyms.

With this we remove more code duplication all around, which is
always good, huh? :-)

perf_events: Fix read() bogus counts when in error state

Normally a group cannot go out of error state without being
explicitly re-enabled or disabled. There was a bug in per-thread

events: Rename TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE() to DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS()

It is not quite obvious at first sight what TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE
does: does it define an event as well beyond defining a template?

To clarify this, rename it to DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS, which follows
the various 'DECLARE_*()' idioms we already have in the kernel:

  DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS(class)

    DEFINE_EVENT(class, event1)
    DEFINE_EVENT(class, event2)
    DEFINE_EVENT(class, event3)

To complete this logic we should also rename TRACE_EVENT() to:

  DEFINE_SINGLE_EVENT(single_event)

... but in a more quiet moment of the kernel cycle.

tracing: Create new DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT

After creating the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE I started to look at other
trace points to see what duplication was made. I noticed that there
are several trace points where they are almost identical except for
the name and the output format. Since TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE was successful
in bringing down the size of trace events, I added a DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT.

DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT is used just like DEFINE_EVENT is. That is, the
DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT also uses a TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE, but it allows the
developer to overwrite the print format. If there are two or more
TRACE_EVENTS that are identical except for the name and print, then
they can be converted to use a TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE. Since the
TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE already does the print output, the first trace event
would have its print format held in the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE and
be defined with a DEFINE_EVENT. The rest will use the DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT
and override the print format.

Converting the sched trace points to both DEFINE_EVENT and
DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT. Five were converted to DEFINE_EVENT and two were
converted to DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT.

I was able to get the following:

$ size kernel/sched.o-*
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  79299    6776    2520   88595   15a13 kernel/sched.o-notrace

sched.o-notrace is the scheduler compiled with no trace points.
sched.o-templ is with the use of DEFINE_EVENT and DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT

tracing: Create new TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE

There are some places in the kernel that define several tracepoints and
they are all identical besides the name. The code to enable, disable and
record is created for every trace point even if most of the code is
identical.

This patch adds TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE that lets the developer create
a template TRACE_EVENT and create trace points with DEFINE_EVENT, which
is based off of a given template. Each trace point used by this
will share most of the code, and bring down the size of the kernel
when there are several duplicate events.

Usage is:

TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE(name, proto, args, tstruct, assign, print);

Which would be the same as defining a normal TRACE_EVENT.

To create the trace events that the trace points will use:

DEFINE_EVENT(template, name, proto, args) is done. The template
is the name of the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE to use. The name is the
name of the trace point. The parameters proto and args must be the same
as the proto and args of the template. If they are not the same,
then a compile error will result. I tried hard removing this duplication
but the C preprocessor is not powerful enough (or my CPP magic
experience points is not at a high enough level) to not need them.

A lot of trace events are coming in with new XFS development. Most of
the trace points are identical except for the name. The following shows
the advantage of having TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE:

$ size fs/xfs/xfs.o.*
    text          data     bss     dec     hex filename
  452114          2788    3520  458422   6feb6 fs/xfs/xfs.o.old
  638482         38116    3744  680342   a6196 fs/xfs/xfs.o.template
  996954         38116    4480 1039550   fdcbe fs/xfs/xfs.o.trace

xfs.o.old is without any tracepoints.
xfs.o.template uses the new TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE.
xfs.o.trace uses the current TRACE_EVENT macros.

The reason is that we still have a #define __KERNEL__ in effect

get extra stuff that we don't need or want.

perf_events: Restore sanity to scaling land

It is quite possible to call update_event_times() on a context
that isn't actually running and thereby confuse the thing.

perf stat was reporting !100% scale values for software counters
(2e2af50b perf_events: Disable events when we detach them,
solved the worst of that, but there was still some left).

The thing that happens is that because we are not self-reaping
(we have a caring parent) there is a time between the last
schedule (out) and having do_exit() called which will detach the
events.

This period would be accounted as enabled,!running because the
event->state==INACTIVE, even though !event->ctx->is_active.

Similar issues could have been observed by calling read() on a
event while the attached task was not scheduled in.

Solve this by teaching update_event_times() about
ctx->is_active.

into list_del_event() because that holds the proper lock
