      perf trace: Fix setting of --call-graph/--max-stack for non-syscall events · 08e26396
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      The raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} were first supported in 'perf trace',
      together with minor and major page faults, then we supported
      --call-graph, then --max-stack, but when the other tracepoints got
      supported, and bpf, etc, I forgot to make those global call-graph
      settings apply to them.
      
      Fix it by realizing that the global --max-stack and --call-graph
      settings are done via:
      
              OPT_CALLBACK(0, "call-graph", &trace.opts,
                           "record_mode[,record_size]", record_callchain_help,
                           &record_parse_callchain_opt),
      
      And then, when we go to parse the events in -e via:
      
              OPT_CALLBACK('e', "event", &trace, "event",
                           "event/syscall selector. use 'perf list' to list available events",
                           trace__parse_events_option),
      
      And trace__parse_sevents_option() calls:
      
                      struct option o = OPT_CALLBACK('e', "event", &trace->evlist, "event",
                                                     "event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events",
                                                     parse_events_option);
                      err = parse_events_option(&o, lists[0], 0);
      
      parse_events_option() will override the global --call-graph and
      --max-stack if the "call-graph" and/or "max-stack" terms are in the
      event definition, such as in the probe_libc:inet_pton event in one of the
      examples below (-e probe_libc:inet_pton/max-stack=2).

      perf evsel: Check if callchain is enabled before setting it up · 1688c2fd
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      The construct:
      
      	if (callchain_param)
      		perf_evsel__config_callchain(evsel, opts, &callchain_param);
      
      happens in several places, so make perf_evsel__config_callchain() work
      just like free(NULL), do nothing if param->enabled is not set.

      perf tools: Fix copyfile_offset update of output offset · fa1195cc
      Jiri Olsa authored
      We need to increase output offset in each iteration, not decrease it as
      we currently do.
      
      I guess we were lucky to finish in most cases in first iteration, so the
      bug never showed. However it shows a lot when working with big (~4GB)
      size data.

      perf trace: No need to set PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER explicitely · 236d812c
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Since 75562573 ("perf tools: Add support for
      PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER") we don't need explicitely set
      PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER, as perf_evlist__config() will do this for us,
      i.e. when there are more than one evsel in an evlist, it will check if
      some evsel has a sample_type different than the one on the first evsel
      in the list, setting PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER in that case.
      
      So, to simplify 'perf trace' codebase, ditch that check.

      perf script python: Add script to profile and resolve physical mem type · 41013f0c
      Kan Liang authored
      There could be different types of memory in the system. E.g normal
      System Memory, Persistent Memory. To understand how the workload maps to
      those memories, it's important to know the I/O statistics of them.  Perf
      can collect physical addresses, but those are raw data.  It still needs
      extra work to resolve the physical addresses.  Provide a script to
      facilitate the physical addresses resolving and I/O statistics.
      
      Profile with MEM_INST_RETIRED.ALL_LOADS or MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.ALL_LOADS
      event if any of them is available.
      
      Look up the /proc/iomem and resolve the physical address.  Provide
      memory type summary.
      
      Here is an example output:
      
        # perf script report mem-phys-addr
        Event: mem_inst_retired.all_loads:P
        Memory type                                    count   percentage
        ----------------------------------------  -----------  -----------
        System RAM                                        74        53.2%
        Persistent Memory                                 55        39.6%
        N/A
      
        ---
      
      Changes since V2:
       - Apply the new license rules.
       - Add comments for globals
      
      Changes since V1:
       - Do not mix DLA and Load Latency. Do not compare the loads and stores.
         Only profile the loads.
       - Use event name to replace the RAW event

        SyS_epoll_wait() kernel function and expected it to be hit when calling
        the epoll_wait() libc wrapper, which changed recently, in systems such
        as Fedora 27, with the glibc wrapper calling instead the epoll_pwait()
        syscall, so switch to epoll_pwait() for both the kernel and libc
        function, getting it to work both in old and new systems (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
      - Beautify 'gettid' syscall result in 'perf trace', and in doing so
        noticed that we need to handle namespaces in 'perf trace', will be
        dealt with in follow up patches where we'll try to figure out if
        the recent support for namespace in tools/perf/ can be used for this
        purpose as well. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
      - Introduce 'perf report --mmaps' and 'perf report --tasks' to show
        info present in 'perf.data' (Jiri Olsa, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
      - Synchronize kernel <-> tooling headers wrt meltdown/spectre changes
        (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
      - Fix a wrong offset issue when using /proc/kcore (Jin Yao)
      
      - Fix bug that prevented annotating symbols in perf.data files
        generated with 'perf record --branch-any'  (Jin Yao)
      
      - Add infrastructure to record first and last sample time to the
        perf.data file header, so that when processing all samples in
        a 'perf record' session, such as when doing build-id processing,
        or when specifically requesting that that info be recorded, use
        that in 'perf report --time', that also got support for percent
        slices in addition to absolute ones.
      
        I.e. now it is possible to ask for the samples in the 10%-20%
        time slice of a perf.data file (Jin Yao)
      
      - Enable building with libbabeltrace by default (Jiri Olsa)
      
      - Display perf_event_attr::namespaces when duping the attributes
        in verbose mode (Jiri Olsa)
      
      - Allocate context task_ctx_data for child event (Jiri Olsa)
      
      - Update comments for PERF_RECORD_ITRACE_START and PERF_RECORD_MISC_* (Jiri Olsa)
      
      - Add support for showing PERF_RECORD_LOST events in 'perf script' (Jiri Olsa)
      
      - Add 'perf report --stats' option to display quick statistics about
        metadata events (PERF_RECORD_*) i.e. what we get at the end of 'perf
        report -D' (Jiri Olsa)
      
      - Fix compile error with libunwind x86 (Wang Nan)

      tools headers: Synchronize kernel <-> tooling headers · 5d64db29
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Two kernel headers got modified recently due to meltdown/spectre, in:
      
        a89f040f ("x86/cpufeatures: Add X86_BUG_CPU_INSECURE")
      
      which are used by tooling as well:
      
        arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h
        arch/x86/include/asm/disabled-features.h
      
      None of those changes have an effect on tooling, so do a plain copy.

      perf report: Introduce --mmaps · 6439d7d1
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Similar to --tasks, producing the same output plus /proc/<PID>/maps
      similar lines for each mmap record present in a perf.data file.
      
      Please note that not all mmaps are stored, for instance, some of the
      non-executable mmaps are only stored when 'perf record --data' is used,
      when the user wants to resolve data accesses in addition to asking for
      executable mmaps to get the DSO with symtabs.

      perf report: Add --stats option to display quick data statistics · a4a4d0a7
      Jiri Olsa authored
      Add --stats option to display quick data statistics of event numbers,
      without any further processing, like the one at the end of the perf
      report -D command.
      
        $ perf report --stat
      
        Aggregated stats:
                   TOTAL events:       4566
                    MMAP events:        113
                    LOST events:         19
                    COMM events:          3
                    FORK events:        400
                  SAMPLE events:       3315
                   MMAP2 events:         32

                 CPU_MAP events:          1
               TIME_CONV events:          1
      
      I found this useful when hunting lost events for another change.

      perf: Allocate context task_ctx_data for child event · 313ccb96
      Jiri Olsa authored
      Currently we use perf_event_context::task_ctx_data to save and restore
      the LBR status when the task is scheduled out and in.
      
      We don't allocate it for child contexts, which results in shorter task's
      LBR stack, because we don't save the history from previous run and start
      over every time we schedule the task in.
      
      I made a test to generate samples with LBR call stack and got higher
      numbers on bigger chain depths:
      
                                  before:     after:
        LBR call chain: nr: 1       60561     498127

        LBR call chain: nr: 3      107030       2172

      perf script: Support time percent and multiple time ranges · 2ab046cd
      Jin Yao authored
      perf script has a --time option to limit the time range of output.  It
      only supports absolute time.
      
      Now this option is extended to support multiple time ranges and support
      the percent of time.
      
      For example:
      
      1. Select the first and second 10% time slices:
      
         perf script --time 10%/1,10%/2
      
      2. Select from 0% to 10% and 30% to 40% slices:
      
         perf script --time 0%-10%,30%-40%
      
      Changelog:
      
      v6: Fix the merge issue with latest perf/core branch.
          No functional changes.
      
      v5: Add checking of first/last sample time to detect if it's recorded
          in perf.data. If it's not recorded, returns error message to user.
      
      v4: Remove perf_time__skip_sample, only uses perf_time__ranges_skip_sample
      
      v3: Since the definitions of first_sample_time/last_sample_time
          are moved from perf_session to perf_evlist so change the
          related code.

      perf tools: Create function to perform multiple time range checking · 9a9b8b4b
      Jin Yao authored
      Previous patch supports the multiple time range.
      
      For example, select the first and second 10% time slices.
      perf report --time 10%/1,10%/2
      
      We need a function to check if a timestamp is in the ranges of
      [0, 10%) and [10%, 20%].
      
      Note that it includes the last element in [10%, 20%] but it doesn't
      include the last element in [0, 10%). It's to avoid the overlap.
      
      This patch implments a new function perf_time__ranges_skip_sample
      for this checking.
      
      Change log:
      
      v4: Let perf_time__ranges_skip_sample be compatible with
          perf_time__skip_sample when only one time range.

      perf record: Record the first and last sample time in the header · 68588baf
      Jin Yao authored
      In the default 'perf record' configuration, all samples are processed,
      to create the HEADER_BUILD_ID table. So it's very easy to get the
      first/last samples and save the time to perf file header via the
      function write_sample_time().
      
      Later, at post processing time, perf report/script will fetch the time
      from perf file header.
      
      Committer testing:

          on all samples is the default operation. There is no big overhead
          to calculate the timestamp boundary in process_sample_event handler
          once we already go through all samples. So the timestamp boundary
          calculation is enabled by default when '--buildid-all' is not enabled.
      
          While if '--buildid-all' is enabled, we creates a new option
          "--timestamp-boundary" for user to decide if it enables the
          timestamp boundary calculation.
      
      v5: There is an issue that the sample walking can only work when
          '--buildid-all' is not enabled. So we need to let the walking
          be able to work even if '--buildid-all' is enabled and let the
          processing skips the dso hit marking for this case.
      
          At first, I want to provide a new option "--record-time-boundaries".
          While after consideration, I think a new option is not very
          necessary.
      
      v3: Remove the definitions of first_sample_time and last_sample_time
          from struct record and directly save them in perf_evlist.

      perf header: Add infrastructure to record first and last sample time · 6011518d
      Jin Yao authored
      perf report/script/... have a --time option to limit the time range of
      output. That's very useful to slice large traces, e.g. when processing
      the output of perf script for some analysis.
      
      But right now --time only supports absolute time. Also there is no fast
      way to get the start/end times of a given trace except for looking at
      it.  This makes it hard to e.g. only decode the first half of the trace,
      which is useful for parallelization of scripts
      
      Another problem is that perf records are variable size and there is no
      synchronization mechanism. So the only way to find the last sample
      reliably would be to walk all samples. But we want to avoid that in perf
      report/...  because it is already quite expensive. That is why storing
      the first sample time and last sample time in perf record is better.
      
      This patch creates a new header feature type HEADER_SAMPLE_TIME and
      related ops. Save the first sample time and the last sample time to the
      feature section in perf file header. That will be done when, for
      instance, processing build-ids, where we already have to process all
      samples to create the build-id table, take advantage of that to further
      amortize that processing by storing HEADER_SAMPLE_TIME to make 'perf
      report/script' faster when using --time.
      
      Committer testing:
      
      After this patch is applied the header is written with zeroes, we need
      the next patch, for "perf record" to actually write the timestamps:
      
        # perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE\(
        22501155244406 0x44f0 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4001): 25016/25016: 0xffffffffa21be8c5 period: 1 addr: 0
        <SNIP>
        22501155793625 0x4a30 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4001): 25016/25016: 0xffffffffa21ffd50 period: 2828043 addr: 0
        # perf report --header | grep "time of "
        # time of first sample : 0.000000
        # time of last sample : 0.000000
        #
      
      Changelog:
      
      v7: 1. Rebase to latest perf/core branch.
      
          2. Add following clarification in patch description according to
             Arnaldo's suggestion.
      
             "That will be done when, for instance, processing build-ids,
      	where we already have to process all samples to create the
      	build-id table, take advantage of that to further amortize
      	that processing by storing HEADER_SAMPLE_TIME to make
      	'perf report/script' faster when using --time."
      
      v4: Use perf script time style for timestamp printing. Also add with
          the printing of sample duration.
      
      v3: Remove the definitions of first_sample_time/last_sample_time from
          perf_session. Just define them in perf_evlist

      perf report: Fix a no annotate browser displayed issue · 40c39e30
      Jin Yao authored
      When enabling '-b' option in perf record, for example,
      
        perf record -b ...
        perf report
      
      and then browsing the annotate browser from perf report (press 'A'), it
      would fail (annotate browser can't be displayed).
      
      It's because the '.add_entry_cb' op of struct report is overwritten by
      hist_iter__branch_callback() in builtin-report.c. But this function doesn't do
      something like mapping symbols and sources. So next, do_annotate() will return
      directly.
      
              notes = symbol__annotation(act->ms.sym);
              if (!notes->src)
                      return 0;
      
      This patch adds the lost code to hist_iter__branch_callback (refer to
      hist_iter__report_callback).
      
      v2:
      
      Fix a crash bug when perform 'perf report --stdio'.
      
      The reason is that we init the symbol annotation only in browser mode, it
      doesn't allocate/init resources for stdio mode.
      
      So now in hist_iter__branch_callback(), it will return directly if it's not in
      browser mode.
