2020-07-08perf inject jit: Remove //anon mmap eventsSteve MacLean1-1/+30
**perf-<pid>.map and jit-<pid>.dump designs: When a JIT generates code to be executed, it must allocate memory and mark it executable using an mmap call. *** perf-<pid>.map design The perf-<pid>.map assumes that any sample recorded in an anonymous memory page is JIT code. It then tries to resolve the symbol name by looking at the process' perf-<pid>.map. *** jit-<pid>.dump design The jit-<pid>.dump mechanism takes a different approach. It requires a JIT to write a `<path>/jit-<pid>.dump` file. This file must also be mmapped so that perf inject -jit can find the file. The JIT must also add JIT_CODE_LOAD records for any functions it generates. The records are timestamped using a clock which can be correlated to the perf record clock. After perf record, the `perf inject -jit` pass parses the recording looking for a `<path>/jit-<pid>.dump` file. When it finds the file, it parses it and for each JIT_CODE_LOAD record: * creates an elf file `<path>/jitted-<pid>-<code_index>.so * injects a new mmap record mapping the new elf file into the process. *** Coexistence design The kernel and perf support both of these mechanisms. We need to make sure perf works on an app supporting either or both of these mechanisms. Both designs rely on mmap records to determine how to resolve an ip address. The mmap records of both techniques by definition overlap. When the JIT compiles a method, it must: * allocate memory (mmap) * add execution privilege (mprotect or mmap. either will generate an mmap event form the kernel to perf) * compile code into memory * add a function record to perf-<pid>.map and/or jit-<pid>.dump Because the jit-<pid>.dump mechanism supports greater capabilities, perf prefers the symbols from jit-<pid>.dump. It implements this based on timestamp ordering of events. There is an implicit ASSUMPTION that the JIT_CODE_LOAD record timestamp will be after the // anon mmap event that was generated during memory allocation or adding the execution privilege setting. *** Problems with the ASSUMPTION The ASSUMPTION made in the Coexistence design section above is violated in the following scenario. *** Scenario While a JIT is jitting code it will eventually need to commit more pages and change these pages to executable permissions. Typically the JIT will want these collocated to minimize branch displacements. The kernel will coalesce these anonymous mapping with identical permissions before sending an MMAP event for the new pages. The address range of the new mmap will not be just the most recently mmap pages. It will include the entire coalesced mmap region. See mm/mmap.c unsigned long mmap_region(struct file *file, unsigned long addr, unsigned long len, vm_flags_t vm_flags, unsigned long pgoff, struct list_head *uf) { ... /* * Can we just expand an old mapping? */ ... perf_event_mmap(vma); ... } *** Symptoms The coalesced // anon mmap event will be timestamped after the JIT_CODE_LOAD records. This means it will be used as the most recent mapping for that entire address range. For remaining events it will look at the inferior perf-<pid>.map for symbols. If both mechanisms are supported, the symbol will appear twice with different module names. This causes weird behavior in reporting. If only jit-<pid>.dump is supported, the symbol will no longer be resolved. ** Implemented solution This patch solves the issue by removing // anon mmap events for any process which has a valid jit-<pid>.dump file. It tracks on a per process basis to handle the case where some running apps support jit-<pid>.dump, but some only support perf-<pid>.map. It adds new assumptions: * // anon mmap events are only required for perf-<pid>.map support. * An app that uses jit-<pid>.dump, no longer needs perf-<pid>.map support. It assumes that any perf-<pid>.map info is inferior. *** Details Use thread->priv to store whether a jitdump file has been processed During "perf inject --jit", discard "//anon*" mmap events for any pid which has sucessfully processed a jitdump file. ** Testing: // jitdump case perf record <app with jitdump> perf inject --jit --input perf.data --output perfjit.data // verify mmap "//anon" events present initially perf script --input perf.data --show-mmap-events | grep '//anon' // verify mmap "//anon" events removed perf script --input perfjit.data --show-mmap-events | grep '//anon' // no jitdump case perf record <app without jitdump> perf inject --jit --input perf.data --output perfjit.data // verify mmap "//anon" events present initially perf script --input perf.data --show-mmap-events | grep '//anon' // verify mmap "//anon" events not removed perf script --input perfjit.data --show-mmap-events | grep '//anon' ** Repro: This issue was discovered while testing the initial CoreCLR jitdump implementation. https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/pull/26897. ** Alternate solutions considered These were also briefly considered: * Change kernel to not coalesce mmap regions. * Change kernel reporting of coalesced mmap regions to perf. Only include newly mapped memory. * Only strip parts of // anon mmap events overlapping existing jitted-<pid>-<code_index>.so mmap events.

2020-07-03perf record: Fix duplicated sideband events with Intel PT system wide tracingAdrian Hunter4-7/+20
Commit 0a892c1c9472 ("perf record: Add dummy event during system wide synthesis") reveals an issue with Intel PT system wide tracing. Specifically that Intel PT already adds a dummy tracking event, and it is not the first event. Adding another dummy tracking event causes duplicated sideband events. Fix by checking for an existing dummy tracking event first. Example showing duplicated switch events: Before: # perf record -a -e intel_pt//u uname Linux [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.895 MB perf.data ] # perf script --no-itrace --show-switch-events | head swapper 0 [007] 6390.516222: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE OUT preempt next pid/tid: 11/11 swapper 0 [007] 6390.516222: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE OUT preempt next pid/tid: 11/11 rcu_sched 11 [007] 6390.516223: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE IN prev pid/tid: 0/0 rcu_sched 11 [007] 6390.516224: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE IN prev pid/tid: 0/0 rcu_sched 11 [007] 6390.516227: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE OUT next pid/tid: 0/0 rcu_sched 11 [007] 6390.516227: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE OUT next pid/tid: 0/0 swapper 0 [007] 6390.516228: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE IN prev pid/tid: 11/11 swapper 0 [007] 6390.516228: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE IN prev pid/tid: 11/11 swapper 0 [002] 6390.516415: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE OUT preempt next pid/tid: 5556/5559 swapper 0 [002] 6390.516416: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE OUT preempt next pid/tid: 5556/5559 After: # perf record -a -e intel_pt//u uname Linux [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.868 MB perf.data ] # perf script --no-itrace --show-switch-events | head swapper 0 [005] 6450.567013: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE OUT preempt next pid/tid: 7179/7181 perf 7181 [005] 6450.567014: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE IN prev pid/tid: 0/0 perf 7181 [005] 6450.567028: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE OUT next pid/tid: 0/0 swapper 0 [005] 6450.567029: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE IN prev pid/tid: 7179/7181 swapper 0 [005] 6450.571699: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE OUT preempt next pid/tid: 11/11 rcu_sched 11 [005] 6450.571700: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE IN prev pid/tid: 0/0 rcu_sched 11 [005] 6450.571702: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE OUT next pid/tid: 0/0 swapper 0 [005] 6450.571703: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE IN prev pid/tid: 11/11 swapper 0 [005] 6450.579703: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE OUT preempt next pid/tid: 11/11 rcu_sched 11 [005] 6450.579704: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE IN prev pid/tid: 0/0 Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <[email protected]> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> Cc: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]>

2020-06-22perf pmu: Improve CPU core PMU HW event list orderingJohn Garry1-0/+7

For my arm64 platform, all the uncore events get mixed in, making the list very disorganised: page-faults OR faults [Software event] task-clock [Software event] duration_time [Tool event] L1-dcache-load-misses [Hardware cache event] L1-dcache-loads [Hardware cache event] L1-icache-load-misses [Hardware cache event] L1-icache-loads [Hardware cache event] branch-load-misses [Hardware cache event] branch-loads [Hardware cache event] dTLB-load-misses [Hardware cache event] dTLB-loads [Hardware cache event] iTLB-load-misses [Hardware cache event] iTLB-loads [Hardware cache event] br_mis_pred OR armv8_pmuv3_0/br_mis_pred/ [Kernel PMU event] br_mis_pred_retired OR armv8_pmuv3_0/br_mis_pred_retired/ [Kernel PMU event] br_pred OR armv8_pmuv3_0/br_pred/ [Kernel PMU event] br_retired OR armv8_pmuv3_0/br_retired/ [Kernel PMU event] br_return_retired OR armv8_pmuv3_0/br_return_retired/ [Kernel PMU event] bus_access OR armv8_pmuv3_0/bus_access/ [Kernel PMU event] bus_cycles OR armv8_pmuv3_0/bus_cycles/ [Kernel PMU event] cid_write_retired OR armv8_pmuv3_0/cid_write_retired/ [Kernel PMU event] cpu_cycles OR armv8_pmuv3_0/cpu_cycles/ [Kernel PMU event] dtlb_walk OR armv8_pmuv3_0/dtlb_walk/ [Kernel PMU event] exc_return OR armv8_pmuv3_0/exc_return/ [Kernel PMU event] exc_taken OR armv8_pmuv3_0/exc_taken/ [Kernel PMU event] hisi_sccl1_ddrc0/act_cmd/ [Kernel PMU event] hisi_sccl1_ddrc0/flux_rcmd/ [Kernel PMU event] hisi_sccl1_ddrc0/flux_rd/ [Kernel PMU event] hisi_sccl1_ddrc0/flux_wcmd/ [Kernel PMU event] hisi_sccl1_ddrc0/flux_wr/ [Kernel PMU event] hisi_sccl1_ddrc0/pre_cmd/ [Kernel PMU event] hisi_sccl1_ddrc0/rnk_chg/ [Kernel PMU event] ... hisi_sccl7_l3c21/wr_hit_cpipe/ [Kernel PMU event] hisi_sccl7_l3c21/wr_hit_spipe/ [Kernel PMU event] hisi_sccl7_l3c21/wr_spipe/ [Kernel PMU event] inst_retired OR armv8_pmuv3_0/inst_retired/ [Kernel PMU event] inst_spec OR armv8_pmuv3_0/inst_spec/ [Kernel PMU event] itlb_walk OR armv8_pmuv3_0/itlb_walk/ [Kernel PMU event] l1d_cache OR armv8_pmuv3_0/l1d_cache/ [Kernel PMU event] l1d_cache_refill OR armv8_pmuv3_0/l1d_cache_refill/ [Kernel PMU event] l1d_cache_wb OR armv8_pmuv3_0/l1d_cache_wb/ [Kernel PMU event] l1d_tlb OR armv8_pmuv3_0/l1d_tlb/ [Kernel PMU event] l1d_tlb_refill OR armv8_pmuv3_0/l1d_tlb_refill/ [Kernel PMU event] So the events are list alphabetically. However, CPU core event listing is special from commit dc098b35b56f ("perf list: List kernel supplied event aliases"), in that the alias and full event is shown (in that order). As such, the core events may become sparse. Improve this by grouping the CPU core events and ensure that they are listed first for kernel PMU events. For the first example, above, this now looks like: duration_time [Tool event] branch-instructions OR cpu/branch-instructions/ [Kernel PMU event] branch-misses OR cpu/branch-misses/ [Kernel PMU event] bus-cycles OR cpu/bus-cycles/ [Kernel PMU event] cache-misses OR cpu/cache-misses/ [Kernel PMU event] cache-references OR cpu/cache-references/ [Kernel PMU event] cpu-cycles OR cpu/cpu-cycles/ [Kernel PMU event] cycles-ct OR cpu/cycles-ct/ [Kernel PMU event] cycles-t OR cpu/cycles-t/ [Kernel PMU event] el-abort OR cpu/el-abort/ [Kernel PMU event] el-capacity OR cpu/el-capacity/ [Kernel PMU event] el-commit OR cpu/el-commit/ [Kernel PMU event] el-conflict OR cpu/el-conflict/ [Kernel PMU event] el-start OR cpu/el-start/ [Kernel PMU event] instructions OR cpu/instructions/ [Kernel PMU event] mem-loads OR cpu/mem-loads/ [Kernel PMU event] mem-stores OR cpu/mem-stores/ [Kernel PMU event] ref-cycles OR cpu/ref-cycles/ [Kernel PMU event] topdown-fetch-bubbles OR cpu/topdown-fetch-bubbles/ [Kernel PMU event] topdown-recovery-bubbles OR cpu/topdown-recovery-bubbles/ [Kernel PMU event] topdown-slots-issued OR cpu/topdown-slots-issued/ [Kernel PMU event] topdown-slots-retired OR cpu/topdown-slots-retired/ [Kernel PMU event] topdown-total-slots OR cpu/topdown-total-slots/ [Kernel PMU event] tx-abort OR cpu/tx-abort/ [Kernel PMU event] tx-capacity OR cpu/tx-capacity/ [Kernel PMU event] tx-commit OR cpu/tx-commit/ [Kernel PMU event] tx-conflict OR cpu/tx-conflict/ [Kernel PMU event] tx-start OR cpu/tx-start/ [Kernel PMU event] cstate_core/c3-residency/ [Kernel PMU event] cstate_core/c6-residency/ [Kernel PMU event] cstate_core/c7-residency/ [Kernel PMU event] cstate_pkg/c2-residency/ [Kernel PMU event] cstate_pkg/c3-residency/ [Kernel PMU event] cstate_pkg/c6-residency/ [Kernel PMU event] cstate_pkg/c7-residency/ [Kernel PMU event] Signed-off-by: John Garry <[email protected]> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <[email protected]> Cc: Andi Kleen <[email protected]> Cc: Ian Rogers <[email protected]> Cc: Mark Rutland <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Cc: Will Deacon <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]>
2020-06-22perf pmu: List kernel supplied event aliases for arm64John Garry1-1/+1
In commit dc098b35b56f ("perf list: List kernel supplied event aliases"), the aliases for events are supplied in addition to CPU event in perf list. This relies on the name of the core PMU being "cpu", which is not the case for arm64, so arm64 has always missed this. Use generic is_pmu_core() helper which takes account of arm64 to make this feature work for arm64 (and possibly other archs).

2020-06-01perf arm-spe: Support synthetic eventsTan Xiaojun5-43/+1097
After the commit ffd3d18c20b8 ("perf tools: Add ARM Statistical Profiling Extensions (SPE) support") has been merged, it supports to output raw data with option "--dump-raw-trace". However, it misses for support synthetic events so cannot output any statistical info. This patch is to improve the "perf report" support for ARM SPE for four types synthetic events: First level cache synthetic events, including L1 data cache accessing and missing events; Last level cache synthetic events, including last level cache accessing and missing events; TLB synthetic events, including TLB accessing and missing events; Remote access events, which is used to account load/store operations caused to another socket. Example usage: $ perf record -c 1024 -e arm_spe_0/branch_filter=1,ts_enable=1,pct_enable=1,pa_enable=1,load_filter=1,jitter=1,store_filter=1,min_latency=0/ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null count=10000 $ perf report --stdio #

2020-05-29perf tools: Add optional support for libpfm4Stephane Eranian7-8/+349
This patch links perf with the libpfm4 library if it is available and LIBPFM4 is passed to the build. The libpfm4 library contains hardware event tables for all processors supported by perf_events. It is a helper library that helps convert from a symbolic event name to the event encoding required by the underlying kernel interface. This library is open-source and available from: http://perfmon2.sf.net. With this patch, it is possible to specify full hardware events by name. Hardware filters are also supported. Events must be specified via the --pfm-events and not -e option. Both options are active at the same time and it is possible to mix and match: $ perf stat --pfm-events inst_retired:any_p:c=1:i -e cycles .... One needs to explicitely ask for its inclusion by using the LIBPFM4 make command line option, ie its opt-in rather than opt-out of feature detection and build support.

syscalltbl constructor In the past this wasn't needed as the libaudit based code would use just one field, and the alternative constructor would fill in all the fields, but now that even when using the libaudit based method we need the other fields, switch to zalloc() to make sure the other fields are zeroed at instantiation time.

2020-05-29perf trace: Remove union from syscalltbl, all the fields are neededArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-8/+6
When we moved to a syscalltbl generated from the kernel syscall tables (arch/..../syscall*.tbl) the idea was to either use it, when having the generator (e.g. tools/perf/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscalltbl.sh), or falling back to the previous audit-libs based way of mapping syscall ids to strings and the other way around. At first we just needed the audit_detect_machine() return to then use it to the str->id/id->str, or the other fields for the now used by default in the most well developed arches method of using the syscall table generator. The problem is that then the libaudit code fell into disrepair, and architectures where it is the method used are not working. Now, with NO_SYSCALL_TABLE=1 being possible to pass on the make command line we can automate the testing of that method even on x86-64, arm64, etc. And doing it I noted that we actually use fields in both entries in the union, oops, so ditch the union, as we need all those fields at the same time.
