2012-12-09perf tools: Fix mmap limitations on 32-bitDavid Miller1-1/+0
This is a suggested patch to fix the bug I reported at: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=135033028924652&w=2 Essentially, there is a hard requirement that when perf analyzes a trace, it must have the entire thing mmap()'d. Therefore the scheme used on 32-bit where we have a fixed (8) number of 32MB mmaps, and cycle through them, simply does not work. One of the reasons this requirement exists is because the iterators maintain references to perf entry objects and those references don't just simply go away when this mmap code decides to cycle an old mmap area out and reuse it. At this point, those entry pointers now point to garbage resulting in unpredictable behavior and crashes. It is better to try to mmap() as much as we can and if we do actually run into address space limitations, the failure of the mmap() call will indicate that and stop processing. I noticed that perf_session->mmap_window is set to a constant in one location, and only used in one other location. So I got rid of it altogether. So we adjust the size of the mmaps[] array to the maximum we could need. On 64-bit we only need one slot. On 32-bit we could need up to 128 (128 * 32MB == 4GB). I've verified that this allows a large (~600MB) perf.data file to be analyzed properly with a 32-bit perf binary, which previously was not possible. Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-11-19perf: Make perf build for x86 with UAPI disintegration appliedDavid Howells1-1/+1
Make perf build for x86 once the UAPI disintegration patches for that arch have been applied by adding the appropriate -I flags - in the right order - and then converting some #includes that use ../.. notation to find main kernel headerfiles to use <asm/foo.h> and <linux/foo.h> instead. Note that -Iarch/foo/include/uapi is present _before_ -Iarch/foo/include. This makes sure we get the userspace version of the pt_regs struct. Ideally, we wouldn't have the latter -I flag at all, but unfortunately we want asm/svm.h and asm/vmx.h in builtin-kvm.c and these aren't part of the UAPI - at least not for x86. I wonder if the bits outside of the __KERNEL__ guards *should* be transferred there. I note also that perf seems to do its dependency handling manually by listing all the header files it might want to use in LIB_H in the Makefile. Can this be changed to use -MD? Note that to do make this work, we need to export and UAPI disintegrate linux/hw_breakpoint.h, which I think should've been exported previously so that perf can access the bits. We have to do this in the same patch to maintain bisectability. Signed-off-by: David Howells <[email protected]>

2012-06-27perf tools: Stop using a global trace events description listArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+10
The pevent thing is per perf.data file, so I made it stop being static and become a perf_session member, so tools processing perf.data files use perf_session and _there_ we read the trace events description into session->pevent and then change everywhere to stop using that single global pevent variable and use the per session one. Note that it _doesn't_ fall backs to trace__event_id, as we're not interested at all in what is present in the /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events in the workstation doing the analysis, just in what is in the perf.data file. This patch also introduces perf_session__set_tracepoints_handlers that is the perf perf.data/session way to associate handlers to tracepoint events by resolving their IDs using the events descriptions stored in a perf.data file. Make 'perf sched' use it.

2011-10-07perf tools: Make perf.data more self-descriptive (v8)Stephane Eranian1-0/+1
The goal of this patch is to include more information about the host environment into the perf.data so it is more self-descriptive. Overtime, profiles are captured on various machines and it becomes hard to track what was recorded, on what machine and when. This patch provides a way to solve this by extending the perf.data file with basic information about the host machine. To add those extensions, we leverage the feature bits capabilities of the perf.data format. The change is backward compatible with existing perf.data files. We define the following useful new extensions: - HEADER_HOSTNAME: the hostname - HEADER_OSRELEASE: the kernel release number - HEADER_ARCH: the hw architecture - HEADER_CPUDESC: generic CPU description - HEADER_NRCPUS: number of online/avail cpus - HEADER_CMDLINE: perf command line - HEADER_VERSION: perf version - HEADER_TOPOLOGY: cpu topology - HEADER_EVENT_DESC: full event description (attrs) - HEADER_CPUID: easy-to-parse low level CPU identication The small granularity for the entries is to make it easier to extend without breaking backward compatiblity. Many entries are provided as ASCII strings. Perf report/script have been modified to print the basic information as easy-to-parse ASCII strings. Extended information about CPU and NUMA topology may be requested with the -I option. Thanks to David Ahern for reviewing and testing the many versions of this patch. $ perf report --stdio # ======== # captured on : Mon Sep 26 15:22:14 2011 # hostname : quad # os release : 3.1.0-rc4-tip # perf version : 3.1.0-rc4 # arch : x86_64 # nrcpus online : 4 # nrcpus avail : 4 # cpudesc : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz # cpuid : GenuineIntel,6,15,11 # total memory : 8105360 kB # cmdline : /home/eranian/perfmon/official/tip/build/tools/perf/perf record date # event : name = cycles, type = 0, config = 0x0, config1 = 0x0, config2 = 0x0, excl_usr = 0, excl_kern = 0, id = { 29, 30, 31, # HEADER_CPU_TOPOLOGY info available, use -I to display # HEADER_NUMA_TOPOLOGY info available, use -I to display # ======== # ... $ perf report --stdio -I # ======== # captured on : Mon Sep 26 15:22:14 2011 # hostname : quad # os release : 3.1.0-rc4-tip # perf version : 3.1.0-rc4 # arch : x86_64 # nrcpus online : 4 # nrcpus avail : 4 # cpudesc : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz # cpuid : GenuineIntel,6,15,11 # total memory : 8105360 kB # cmdline : /home/eranian/perfmon/official/tip/build/tools/perf/perf record date # event : name = cycles, type = 0, config = 0x0, config1 = 0x0, config2 = 0x0, excl_usr = 0, excl_kern = 0, id = { 29, 30, 31, # sibling cores : 0-3 # sibling threads : 0 # sibling threads : 1 # sibling threads : 2 # sibling threads : 3 # node0 meminfo : total = 8320608 kB, free = 7571024 kB # node0 cpu list : 0-3 # ======== # ...

2011-09-23perf tool: Fix endianness handling of u32 data in samplesDavid Ahern1-1/+2
Currently, analyzing PPC data files on x86 the cpu field is always 0 and the tid and pid are backwards. For example, analyzing a PPC file on PPC the pid/tid fields show: rsyslogd 1210/1212 and analyzing the same PPC file using an x86 perf binary shows: rsyslogd 1212/1210 The problem is that the swap_op method for samples is perf_event__all64_swap which assumes all elements in the sample_data struct are u64s. cpu, tid and pid are u32s and need to be handled individually. Given that the swap is done before the sample is parsed, the simplest solution is to undo the 64-bit swap of those elements when the sample is parsed and do the proper swap. The RAW data field is generic and perf cannot have programmatic knowledge of how to treat that data. Instead a warning is given to the user. Thanks to Anton Blanchard for providing a data file for a mult-CPU PPC system so I could verify the fix for the CPU fields. v3 -> v4: - fixed use of WARN_ONCE v2 -> v3: - used WARN_ONCE for message regarding raw data - removed struct wrapper around union - fixed whitespace issues v1 -> v2: - added a union for undoing the byte-swap on u64 and redoing swap on u32's to address compiler errors (see git commit 65014ab3) Cc: Anton Blanchard <[email protected]> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <[email protected]> Cc: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]> Cc: Paul Mackerras <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: David Ahern <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]>
2011-07-21perf tools: Fix endian conversion reading event attr from file headerDavid Ahern1-0/+1
The perf_event_attr struct has two __u32's at the top and they need to be swapped individually. With this change I was able to analyze a perf.data collected in a 32-bit PPC VM on an x86 system. I tested both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries for the Intel analysis side; both read the PPC perf.data file correctly. -v2: - changed the existing perf_event__attr_swap() to swap only elements of perf_event_attr and exported it for use in swapping the attributes in the file header - updated swap_ops used for processing events Signed-off-by: David Ahern <[email protected]> Acked-by: Frederic Weisbecker <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Cc: <[email protected]> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>
2011-07-05perf report/annotate/script: Add option to specify a CPU rangeAnton Blanchard1-0/+3
Add an option to perf report/annotate/script to specify which CPUs to operate on. This enables us to take a single system wide profile and analyse each CPU (or group of CPUs) in isolation. This was useful when profiling a multiprocess workload where the bottleneck was on one CPU but this was hidden in the overall profile. Per process and per thread breakdowns didn't help because multiple processes were running on each CPU and no single process consumed an entire CPU. The patch converts the list of CPUs returned by cpu_map__new into a bitmap for fast lookup. I wanted to use -C to be consistent with perf top/record/stat, but unfortunately perf report already uses -C <comms>. v2: Incorporate suggestions from David Ahern: - Added -c to perf script - Check that SAMPLE_CPU is set when -c is used - Update documentation v3: Create perf_session__cpu_bitmap() Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <[email protected]> Acked-by: David Ahern <[email protected]> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Cc: Paul Mackerras <[email protected]> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20110704215750.11647eb9@kryten Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>
