2013-11-14perf record: Add an option to force per-cpu mmapsAdrian Hunter1-1/+3
By default, when tasks are specified (i.e. -p, -t or -u options) per-thread mmaps are created. Add an option to override that and force per-cpu mmaps. Further comments by peterz: So this option allows -t/-p/-u to create one buffer per cpu and attach all the various thread/process/user tasks' their counters to that one buffer? As opposed to the current state where each such counter would have its own buffer.

2013-11-12perf evlist: Round mmap pages to power 2 - v2David Ahern1-12/+6
Currently perf requires the -m / --mmap_pages option to be a power of 2. To be more user friendly perf should automatically round this up to the next power of 2. Currently: $ perf record -m 3 -a -- sleep 1 --mmap_pages/-m value must be a power of two.sleep: Terminated With patch: $ perf record -m 3 -a -- sleep 1 rounding mmap pages size to 16384 (4 pages) ... v2: Add bytes units to rounding message per Ingo's request. Other suggestions (e.g., prefixing INFO) should be addressed by wrapping pr_info to catch all instances.

2013-11-11perf evsel: Remove idx parm from constructorArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-4/+5
Most uses of the evsel constructor are followed by a call to perf_evlist__add with an idex of evlist->nr_entries, so make rename the current constructor to perf_evsel__new_idx and remove the need for passing the constructor for the common case. We still need the new_idx variant because the way groups are handled, with evsel->nr_members holding the number of entries in an evlist, partitioning the evlist into sublists inside a single linked list. This asks for a clarifying refactoring, but for now simplify the non parser cases, so that tool writers don't have to bother with evsel idx setting.

2013-10-11perf evlist: Fix perf_evlist__mmap_read event overflowJiri Olsa1-2/+2
The perf_evlist__mmap_read used 'union perf_event' as a placeholder for event crossing the mmap boundary. This is ok for sample shorter than ~PATH_MAX. However we could grow up to the maximum sample size which is 16 bits max. I hit this overflow issue when using 'perf top -G dwarf' which produces sample with the size around 8192 bytes. We could configure any valid sample size here using: '-G dwarf,size'. Using array with sample max size instead for the event placeholder. Also adding another safe check for the dynamic size of the user stack. TODO: The 'struct perf_mmap' is quite big now, maybe we could use some lazy allocation for event_copy size.

2013-08-07perf evlist: Fix event ID retrieval for group format read caseJiri Olsa1-0/+7
We need to fail the event ID retrieval in case both following conditions are true: - we are on kernel with no PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID support - PERF_FORMAT_GROUP read format is set The PERF_FORMAT_GROUP read format bit is the killer for retrieving event ID out of the read syscall, because we have no guarantee of the event placement within leader kernel sibling list.

2013-08-07perf evlist: Use PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID perf ioctl to read event idJiri Olsa1-1/+15
Changing the way we retrieve the event ID. Instead of parsing out the ID out of the read data, using the PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID ioctl. Keeping the old way in place to support kernels without PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID ioctl support. This will be useful for retrieving the event ID for events with PERF_FORMAT_GROUP read format set, where it's impossible to get correct event id out of the read call data.

2013-07-12perf tools: Rename cpu_map__all() to cpu_map__empty()Sukadev Bhattiprolu1-2/+2
The CPU map is in an "empty" (or not-applicable) state when monitoring specific threads. cpu_map__all() returns true if the CPU map is in this empty state (i.e for the 'empty_cpu_map' or if we created the map via cpu_map__dummy_new(). The name, cpu_map__all(), is misleading, because even when monitoring all CPUs, (eg: perf record -a), cpu_map__all() returns false. Rename cpu_map__all() to cpu_map__empty().

2013-07-08perf evlist: Enhance perf_evlist__start_workload()Namhyung Kim1-1/+9
When perf tries to start a workload, it relies on a pipe which the workload was blocked for reading. After closing the pipe on the parent, the workload (child) can start the actual work via exec(). However, if another process was forked after creating a workload, this mechanism cannot work since the other process (child) also inherits the pipe, so that closing the pipe in parent cannot unblock the workload. Fix it by using explicit write call can then closing it. For similar reason, the pipe fd on parent should be marked as CLOEXEC so that it can be closed after another child exec'ed.

2013-02-27hlist: drop the node parameter from iteratorsSasha Levin1-2/+1
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually. The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here: @@ iterator name hlist_for_each_entry, hlist_for_each_entry_continue, hlist_for_each_entry_from, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh, for_each_busy_worker, ax25_uid_for_each, ax25_for_each, inet_bind_bucket_for_each, sctp_for_each_hentry, sk_for_each, sk_for_each_rcu, sk_for_each_from, sk_for_each_safe, sk_for_each_bound, hlist_for_each_entry_safe, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu, nr_neigh_for_each, nr_neigh_for_each_safe, nr_node_for_each, nr_node_for_each_safe, for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp, for_each_gfn_sp, for_each_host; type T; expression a,c,d,e; identifier b; statement S; @@ -T b; <+... when != b ( hlist_for_each_entry(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_from(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh(a, - b, c) S | for_each_busy_worker(a, c, - b, d) S | ax25_uid_for_each(a, - b, c) S | ax25_for_each(a, - b, c) S | inet_bind_bucket_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sctp_for_each_hentry(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_rcu(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_from -(a, b) +(a) S + sk_for_each_from(a) S | sk_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | sk_for_each_bound(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_safe(a, - b, c, d, e) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | nr_node_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_node_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d) S | for_each_host(a, - b, c) S | for_each_host_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | for_each_mesh_entry(a, - b, c, d) S ) ...+> [[email protected]: drop bogus change from net/ipv4/raw.c] [[email protected]: drop bogus hunk from net/ipv6/raw.c] [[email protected]: checkpatch fixes] [[email protected]: fix warnings] [[email protected]: redo intrusive kvm changes] Tested-by: Peter Senna Tschudin <[email protected]> Acked-by: Paul E.

2013-02-06perf evlist: Make event_copy local to mmapsDavid Ahern1-2/+2
I am getting segfaults *after* the time sorting of perf samples where the event type is off the charts: (gdb) bt \#0 0x0807b1b2 in hists__inc_nr_events (hists=0x80a99c4, type=1163281902) at util/hist.c:1225 \#1 0x08070795 in perf_session_deliver_event (session=0x80a9b90, event=0xf7a6aff8, sample=0xffffc318, tool=0xffffc520, file_offset=0) at util/session.c:884 \#2 0x0806f9b9 in flush_sample_queue (s=0x80a9b90, tool=0xffffc520) at util/session.c:555 \#3 0x0806fc53 in process_finished_round (tool=0xffffc520, event=0x0, session=0x80a9b90) at util/session.c:645 This is bizarre because the event has already been processed once -- before it was added to the samples queue -- and the event was found to be sane at that time. There seem to be 2 causes: 1. perf_evlist__mmap_read updates the read location even though there are outstanding references to events sitting in the mmap buffers via the ordered samples queue. 2. There is a single evlist->event_copy for all evlist entries. event_copy is used to handle an event wrapping at the mmap buffer boundary. This patch addresses the second problem - making event_copy local to each perf_mmap. With this change my highly repeatable use case no longer fails. The first problem is much more complicated and will be the subject of a future patch.
