callq *0x10(%rax) was being rendered in simplified mode as: callq *10 I.e. hexa, but without the 0x and omitting the register. In such cases just use the raw form. Reported-by:

The 'perf top' command falls back to cpu-clock if the H/W cycles event is not supported, but the event name is not updated leading to a misleading header: PerfTop: 8 irqs/sec kernel:75.0% exact: 0.0% [1000Hz cycles], ...

perf stat on PPC currently fails to run: $ perf stat -- sleep 1 Error: open_counter returned with 6 (No such device or address). /bin/dmesg may provide additional information. Fatal: Not all events could be opened. The problem is that until 2.6.37 (behavior changed with commit b0a873eb) perf on PPC returns ENXIO when hw_perf_event_init() fails.

The value of IbsOpCurCnt rolls over when it reaches IbsOpMaxCnt. Thus, it is reset to zero by hardware. To get the correct count we need to add the max count to it in case we received an ibs sample (valid bit set). Signed-off-by:

After disabling IBS there could be still incomming NMIs with samples that even have the valid bit cleared. Mark all this NMIs as handled to avoid spurious interrupt messages. Signed-off-by:
-
Robert Richter authored
When disabling ibs there might be the case where hardware continuously generates interrupts. This is described in erratum #420 (Instruction- Based Sampling Engine May Generate Interrupt that Cannot Be Cleared). To avoid this we must clear the counter mask first and then clear the enable bit. This patch implements this. See Revision Guide for AMD Family 10h Processors, Publication #41322. Note: We now keep track of the last read ibs config value which is then used to disable ibs. To update the config value we pass now a pointer to the functions reading it. Signed-off-by:

If the last hw period is too short we might hit the irq handler which biases the results. Thus try to have a max last period that triggers the sw overflow. Signed-off-by:
-
Robert Richter authored
There are cases where the remaining period is smaller than the minimal possible value. In this case the counter is restarted with the minimal period. This is of no use as the interrupt handler will trigger immediately again and most likely hits itself. This biases the results. So, if the remaining period is within the min range, we better do not restart the counter and instead trigger the overflow. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds support for precise event sampling with IBS. There are two counting modes to count either cycles or micro-ops. If the corresponding performance counter events (hw events) are setup with the precise flag set, the request is redirected to the ibs pmu: perf record -a -e cpu-cycles:p ... # use ibs op counting cycle count perf record -a -e r076:p ... # same as -e cpu-cycles:p perf record -a -e r0C1:p ... # use ibs op counting micro-ops Each ibs sample contains a linear address that points to the instruction that was causing the sample to trigger. With ibs we have skid 0. Thus, ibs supports precise levels 1 and 2. Samples are marked with the PERF_EFLAGS_EXACT flag set. In rare cases the rip is invalid when IBS was not able to record the rip correctly. Then the PERF_EFLAGS_EXACT flag is cleared and the rip is taken from pt_regs. V2: * don't drop samples in precise level 2 if rip is invalid, instead support the PERF_EFLAGS_EXACT flag Signed-off-by:

Each IBS sample contains a linear address of the instruction that caused the sample to trigger. This address is more precise than the rip that was taken from the interrupt handler's stack. Update the rip with that address. We use this in the next patch to implement precise-event sampling on AMD systems using IBS. Signed-off-by:

Fixing profiling at a fixed frequency, in this case the freq value and sample period was setup incorrectly. Since sampling periods are adjusted we also allow periods that have lower 4 bits set. Another fix is the setup of the hw counter: If we modify hwc->sample_period, we also need to update hwc->last_period and hwc->period_left. Signed-off-by:

We always need to pass the last sample period to perf_sample_data_init(), otherwise the event distribution will be wrong. Thus, modifiyng the function interface with the required period as argument. So basically a pattern like this: perf_sample_data_init(&data, ~0ULL); data.period = event->hw.last_period; will now be like that: perf_sample_data_init(&data, ~0ULL, event->hw.last_period); Avoids unininitialized data.period and simplifies code.

The last sw period was not correctly updated on overflow and thus led to wrong distribution of events. We always need to properly initialize data.period in struct perf_sample_data. Signed-off-by:

The ftrace_disable_cpu() and ftrace_enable_cpu() functions were needed back before the ring buffer was lockless. Now that the ring buffer is lockless (and has been for some time), these functions serve no purpose, and unnecessarily slow down operations of the tracer.

Currently, 'perf record -- sleep 1' creates a cpu map for all online cpus since it turns out calling cpu_map__new(NULL). Fix it. Also it is guaranteed that cpu_list is NULL if PID/TID is given by calling perf_target__validate(), so we can make the conditional bit simpler. This also fixes perf test 7 (Validate) failure on my 6 core machine: $ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/online 0-11 $ ./perf test -v 7 7: Validate PERF_RECORD_* events & perf_sample fields: --- start --- perf_evlist__mmap: Operation not permitted ---- end ---- Validate PERF_RECORD_* events & perf_sample fields: FAILED!

Check if neither of --pid, --tid or --uid was specified and if so, set system_wide appropriately. Namhyung's patch would make using any of the above target specifiers emit a warning in perf_target__validate, since it would see target.system_wide set and one of the others as well. So set system_wide after validation. Suggested-by:

Currently if we cannot decide the size of the event, we guess next event possition by: "... check alignment, and increment a single u64 in the hope to catch on again 'soon'" This usually ends up with segfault or endless loop. It's better to admit the failure right away, then pretend nothing happened. It makes the life easier ;) Signed-off-by:
