2016-04-26perf evlist: Enforce ring buffer readingWang Nan1-2/+10
Don't read broken data after 'head' pointer. Following commits will feed perf_evlist__mmap_read() with some 'head' pointers not maintained by kernel. If 'head' pointer breaks an event, we should avoid reading from the broken event. This can happen in backward ring buffer. For example: old head | | V V +---+------+----------+----+-----+--+ |..E|D....D|C........C|B..B|A....|E.| +---+------+----------+----+-----+--+ 'old' pointer points to the beginning of 'A' and trying read from it, but 'A' has been overwritten. In this case, don't try to read from 'A', simply return NULL.

[continued]: nanosleep()) = 0 # Further work is needed to reduce the number of lines in a perf bpf C source file, this being the part where we greatly reduce the command line setup (Wang Nan) - 'perf trace' now supports callchains, with 'trace --call-graph dwarf' using libunwind, just like 'perf top', to ask the kernel for stack dumps for CFI processing. This reduces the overhead by asking just for userspace callchains and also only for the syscall exit tracepoint (raw_syscalls:sys_exit) (Milian Wolff, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Try it with, for instance: # perf trace --call dwarf ping 127.0.0.1 An excerpt of a system wide 'perf trace --call dwarf" session is at: https://fedorapeople.org/~acme/perf/perf-trace--call-graph-dwarf--all-cpus.txt You may need to bump the number of mmap pages, using -m/--mmap-pages, but on a Broadwell machine the defaults allowed system wide tracing to work without losing that many records, experiment with just some syscalls, like: # perf trace --call dwarf -e nanosleep,futex All the targets available for 'perf record', 'perf top' (--pid, --tid, --cpu, etc) should work. Also --duration may be interesting to try. To get filenames from in various syscalls pointer args (open, ettc), add this to the mix: # perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=filename:string' Making this work is next in line: # trace --call dwarf --ev sched:sched_switch/call-graph=fp/ usleep 1 I.e. honouring per-tracepoint callchains in 'perf trace' in addition to in raw_syscalls:sys_exit.

The fprintf_sym() and fprintf_callchain() methods now allow users to change the existing behaviour of showing "[unknown]" as the name of unresolved symbols to instead show "[0x123456]", i.e. its address.

This patch allows cloning bpf-output event configuration among multiple bpf scripts. If there exist a map named '__bpf_output__' and not configured using 'map:__bpf_output__.event=', this patch clones the configuration of another '__bpf_stdout__' map. For example, following command: # perf trace --ev bpf-output/no-inherit,name=evt/ \ --ev ./test_bpf_trace.c/map:__bpf_stdout__.event=evt/ \ --ev ./test_bpf_trace2.c usleep 100000 equals to: # perf trace --ev bpf-output/no-inherit,name=evt/ \ --ev ./test_bpf_trace.c/map:__bpf_stdout__.event=evt/ \ --ev ./test_bpf_trace2.c/map:__bpf_stdout__.event=evt/ \ usleep 100000 Signed-off-by: Wang Nan <[email protected]> Suggested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> Cc: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Cc: Zefan Li <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]>
2016-04-08perf tools: Use readdir() instead of deprecated readdir_r()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-30/+30
The readdir() function is thread safe as long as just one thread uses a DIR, which is the case when parsing tracepoint event definitions, to avoid breaking the build with glibc-2.23.90 (upcoming 2.24), use it instead of readdir_r(). See: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/readdir.3.html "However, in modern implementations (including the glibc implementation), concurrent calls to readdir() that specify different directory streams are thread-safe. In cases where multiple threads must read from the same directory stream, using readdir() with external synchronization is still preferable to the use of the deprecated readdir_r(3) function." Noticed while building on a Fedora Rawhide docker container.
