We print several '__u64' quantities using '%llu'. On powerpc, we by default include '<asm-generic/int-l64.h> which results in __u64 being an unsigned long. This causes compile warnings which are treated as errors due to '-Werror'. By defining __SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__ we include <asm-generic/int-ll64.h> and define __u64 as unsigned long long. Changelog[v2]: [Michael Ellerman] Use __SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__ and avoid PRIu64 format specifier - which as Jiri Olsa pointed out, breaks on x86-64. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds a new printing mode for perf stat. It allows interval printing. That means perf stat can now print event deltas at regular time interval. This is useful to detect phases in programs. The -I option enables interval printing. It expects an interval duration in milliseconds. Minimum is 100ms. Once, activated perf stat prints events deltas since last printout. All modes are supported. $ perf stat -I 1000 -e cycles noploop 10 noploop for 10 seconds # time counts events 1.000109853 2,388,560,546 cycles 2.000262846 2,393,332,358 cycles 3.000354131 2,393,176,537 cycles 4.000439503 2,393,203,790 cycles 5.000527075 2,393,167,675 cycles 6.000609052 2,393,203,670 cycles 7.000691082 2,393,175,678 cycles The output format makes it easy to feed into a plotting program such as gnuplot when the -I option is used in combination with the -x option: $ perf stat -x, -I 1000 -e cycles noploop 10 noploop for 10 seconds 1.000084113,2378775498,cycles 2.000245798,2391056897,cycles 3.000354445,2392089414,cycles 4.000459115,2390936603,cycles 5.000565341,2392108173,cycles Signed-off-by:Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung.kim@lge.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1359460064-3060-3-git-send-email-eranian@google.comSigned-off-by:

Add a suite of NUMA performance benchmarks. The goal was simulate the behavior and access patterns of real NUMA workloads, via a wide range of parameters, so this tool goes well beyond simple bzero() measurements that most NUMA micro-benchmarks use: - It processes the data and creates a chain of data dependencies, like a real workload would. Neither the compiler, nor the kernel (via KSM and other optimizations) nor the CPU can eliminate parts of the workload. - It randomizes the initial state and also randomizes the target addresses of the processing - it's not a simple forward scan of addresses. - It provides flexible options to set process, thread and memory relationship information: -G sets "global" memory shared between all test processes, -P sets "process" memory shared by all threads of a process and -T sets "thread" private memory. - There's a NUMA convergence monitoring and convergence latency measurement option via -c and -m. - Micro-sleeps and synchronization can be injected to provoke lock contention and scheduling, via the -u and -S options. This simulates IO and contention. - The -x option instructs the workload to 'perturb' itself artificially every N seconds, by moving to the first and last CPU of the system periodically. This way the stability of convergence equilibrium and the number of steps taken for the scheduler to reach equilibrium again can be measured. - The amount of work can be specified via the -l loop count, and/or via a -s seconds-timeout value. - CPU and node memory binding options, to test hard binding scenarios. THP can be turned on and off via madvise() calls. - Live reporting of convergence progress in an 'at glance' output format. Printing of convergence and deconvergence events. The 'perf bench numa mem -a' option will start an array of about 30 individual tests that will each output such measurements: # Running 5x5-bw-thread, "perf bench numa mem -p 5 -t 5 -P 512 -s 20 -zZ0q --thp 1" 5x5-bw-thread, 20.276, secs, runtime-max/thread 5x5-bw-thread, 20.004, secs, runtime-min/thread 5x5-bw-thread, 20.155, secs, runtime-avg/thread 5x5-bw-thread, 0.671, %, spread-runtime/thread 5x5-bw-thread, 21.153, GB, data/thread 5x5-bw-thread, 528.818, GB, data-total 5x5-bw-thread, 0.959, nsecs, runtime/byte/thread 5x5-bw-thread, 1.043, GB/sec, thread-speed 5x5-bw-thread, 26.081, GB/sec, total-speed See the help text and the code for more details.

Fixing the dynamic array format field parsing. Currently the event_read_fields function could segfault while parsing dynamic array other than string type. The reason is the event->pevent does not need to be set and gets dereferenced unconditionaly. Also adding proper initialization of field->elementsize based on the parsed dynamic type. Signed-off-by:

Sometimes a test is problematic for some reason and one wants to skip it, for instance: [root@sandy ~]# perf test 1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms : Ok 2: detect open syscall event : Ok 3: detect open syscall event on all cpus : Ok 4: read samples using the mmap interface : Ok 5: parse events tests : Warning: bad op token { Warning: bad op token { Warning: bad op token { Warning: bad op token { Warning: bad op token { Warning: function is_writable_pte not defined Segmentation fault (core dumped) So now we can use -s/--skip while the problematic tests are being fixed, allowing us to test all the other entries: [root@sandy ~]# perf test -s 5 1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms : Ok 2: detect open syscall event : Ok 3: detect open syscall event on all cpus : Ok 4: read samples using the mmap interface : Ok 5: parse events tests : Skip (user override) 6: x86 rdpmc test : Ok 7: Validate PERF_RECORD_* events & perf_sample fields : Ok 8: Test perf pmu format parsing : Ok 9: Test dso data interface : Ok 10: roundtrip evsel->name check : Ok 11: Check parsing of sched tracepoints fields : Ok 12: Generate and check syscalls:sys_enter_open event fields: Ok 13: struct perf_event_attr setup : Ok 14: Test matching and linking mutliple hists : Ok 15: Try 'use perf' in python, checking link problems : Ok [root@sandy ~]# Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@gmail.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-klzd8p57jzdryafqkmlppcb1@git.kernel.orgSigned-off-by: -

Running the check-perf-trace scripts causes segfaults in both the Perl and Python cases: # perf script record check-perf-trace # perf script -s libexec/perf-core/scripts/python/check-perf-trace.py trace_begin Segmentation fault (core dumped) The reason is that the 'pevent' field was added to perf_scripting_context but it wasn't hooked up with an actual pevent in either case, so when one of the 'common' fields is accessed (in util/trace-event-parse.c:get_common_fields()), pevent->events tries to dereference a NULL pointer. This sets the pevent field when the scripting context is set up. Signed-off-by:

For some reason the libtraceevent tracepoint-parsing code is missing the FIELD_IS_SIGNED flag-setting code, which causes problems for the Perl trace event binding at least, since it ends up unable to recognize negative numbers. Things like checking for negative return values therefore fail, causing scripts like rwtop to instead interpret the negative return value as a large positive value, which in turn get added to e.g. read totals with insanely invalid results. So set the FIELD_IS_SIGNED flag for tracepoint events that specify "signed:1".

On POWER, the 'perf format parsing' test always fails. Looks like it is because memset() is being passed number of longs rather than number of bytes. It is interesting that the test always passes on my x86 box. With this patch, the test passes on POWER and continues to pass on x86. Signed-off-by:

When make runs it tries to update the Makefile rules by reading all of included Makefiles. During the perf build it checks PERF-VERSION-FILE to get the current version number. But it triggers Makefile update so that make runs again with the update Makefile and, in turn, users will see duplicate CHK message on the second path. Running make with -d option for debugging tells me this: GNU Make 3.82 Built for x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu Copyright (C) 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
