perf c2c: Refactor node display · f3d0a551

Leo Yan authored Jan 14, 2021

The macro DISPLAY_HITM() is used to calculate HITM percentage introduced
by every node and it's shown for the node info.

This patch introduces the static function display_metrics() to replace
the macro, and the parameters are refined for passing the metric's
statistic and sum value.

perf c2c: Fix argument type for percent() · 111c1415

Leo Yan authored Jan 14, 2021

For percent() its arguments are defined as integers; this is not
consistent with its consumers which pass u32 arguments.

Thus this patch makes argument type as u32 for percent().

perf c2c: Refactor display filter · 69a95bfd

Leo Yan authored Jan 14, 2021

When sorting on the respective metrics (lcl_hitm, rmt_hitm, tot_hitm),
the FILTER_HITM macro is used to filter out the cache line entries if
its overhead is less than 1%.

This patch introduces a static function filter_display() to replace that
macro and refines its parameters with a more flexible way, rather than
passing field name, it changes to pass the cache line's statistic and
sum value.

perf c2c: Refactor hist entry validation · 2290e1d6

Leo Yan authored Jan 14, 2021

This patch has no functionality changes but refactors hist entry
validation for cache line resorting.

It renames function "valid_hitm_or_store()" to "is_valid_hist_entry()",
changes return type from integer type to bool type.  In the function,
it uses switch-case instead of ternary operators, which is easier
to extend for more display types.

perf c2c: Rename for shared cache line stats · 1834436e

Leo Yan authored Jan 14, 2021

For shared cache line statistics, 'perf c2c' relies on HITM.  We can use
more general naming rather than only binding to HITM, so replace
"hitm_stats" with "shared_clines_stats" in structure perf_c2c, and
rename function resort_hitm_cb() to resort_shared_cl_cb().

perf stat: Enable counting events for BPF programs · fa853c4b

Song Liu authored Dec 29, 2020

Introduce 'perf stat -b' option, which counts events for BPF programs, like:

  [root@localhost ~]# ~/perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles -b 254 -I 1000
     1.487903822            115,200      ref-cycles
     1.487903822             86,012      cycles
     2.489147029             80,560      ref-cycles
     2.489147029             73,784      cycles
     3.490341825             60,720      ref-cycles
     3.490341825             37,797      cycles
     4.491540887             37,120      ref-cycles
     4.491540887             31,963      cycles

The example above counts 'cycles' and 'ref-cycles' of BPF program of id
254.  This is similar to bpftool-prog-profile command, but more
flexible.

'perf stat -b' creates per-cpu perf_event and loads fentry/fexit BPF
programs (monitor-progs) to the target BPF program (target-prog). The
monitor-progs read perf_event before and after the target-prog, and
aggregate the difference in a BPF map. Then the user space reads data
from these maps.

A new 'struct bpf_counter' is introduced to provide a common interface
that uses BPF programs/maps to count perf events.

Committer notes:

Removed all but bpf_counter.h includes from evsel.h, not needed at all.

Also BPF map lookups for PERCPU_ARRAYs need to have as its value receive
buffer passed to the kernel libbpf_num_possible_cpus() entries, not
evsel__nr_cpus(evsel), as the former uses
/sys/devices/system/cpu/possible while the later uses
/sys/devices/system/cpu/online, which may be less than the 'possible'
number making the bpf map lookup overwrite memory and cause hard to
debug memory corruption.

We need to continue using evsel__nr_cpus(evsel) when accessing the
perf_counts array tho, not to overwrite another are of memory :-)

perf build: Support build BPF skeletons with perf · fbcdaa19

Song Liu authored Dec 29, 2020

BPF programs are useful in perf to profile BPF programs.

BPF skeleton is by far the easiest way to write BPF tools. Enable
building BPF skeletons in util/bpf_skel. A dummy bpf skeleton is added.
More bpf skeletons will be added for different use cases.

perf record: Tweak "Lowering..." warning in record_opts__config_freq · c07b45a3

Hans-Peter Nilsson authored Dec 28, 2020

That is, instead of "Lowering default frequency rate to <F>" say
"Lowering default frequency rate from <f> to <F>", specifying the
overridden default frequency <f>, so you don't have to grep through the
source to "remember" that was e.g. 4000.
