2015-08-10perf tools: Unset perf_event_attr::freq when period term is setJiri Olsa1-0/+1
We need to unset 'perf_event_attr::freq' bit (default 1) when 'period' term is specified within event definition like: -e 'cpu/cpu-cycles,call-graph=fp,time,period=100000' otherwise it will handle the period value as frequency (and fail if it crossed the maximum allowed frequency value).

2015-08-10perf tools: Support full source file paths for srclineAndi Kleen6-1/+15
For perf report/script srcline currently only the base file name of the source file is printed. This is a good default because it usually fits on the screen. But in some cases we want to know the full file name, for example to aggregate hits per file. In the later case we need more than the base file name to resolve file naming collisions: for example the kernel source has ~70 files named "core.c" It's also useful as input to post processing tools which want to point to the right file. Add a flag to allow full file name output. Add an option to perf report/script to enable this option.

2015-08-08perf stat: Move perf_counts struct and functions into separate objectJiri Olsa8-81/+93
Moving 'struct perf_counts' and associated functions into separate object, so we could remove stat.c object dependency from python build. It makes the python code to build properly, because it fails to load due to missing stat-shadow.c object dependency if some patches from Kan Liang are applied. So apply this one, then Kan's.

2015-08-07perf tests: Add LLVM test for eBPF on-the-fly compilingWang Nan7-0/+124
Previous patches introduce llvm__compile_bpf() to compile source file to eBPF object. This patch adds testcase to test it. It also tests libbpf by opening generated object after applying next patch which introduces HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT option. Since llvm__compile_bpf() prints long messages which users who don't explicitly test llvm doesn't care, this patch set verbose to -1 to suppress all debug, warning and error message, and hint user use 'perf test -v' to see the full output. For the same reason, if clang is not found in PATH and there's no [llvm] section in .perfconfig, skip this test.

2015-08-07perf tools: Auto detecting kernel include optionsWang Nan1-5/+55
To help user find correct kernel include options, this patch extracts them from kbuild system by an embedded script kinc_fetch_script, which creates a temporary directory, generates Makefile and an empty dummy.o then use the Makefile to fetch $(NOSTDINC_FLAGS), $(LINUXINCLUDE) and $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) options. The result is passed to compiler script using 'KERNEL_INC_OPTIONS' environment variable. Because options from kbuild contains relative path like 'Iinclude/generated/uapi', the work directory must be changed. This is done by previous patch.

Currently the value of a PMU config term is silently truncated if it is too big. This is an impediment to validating the value for other criteria later on i.e. the user provides an invalid value that gets truncated to a valid one. The maximum value validation is only done for the parser where the error is passed back to the user. In other cases the silent truncation continues so as not to affect tools that perhaps rely on it.

2015-08-06perf annotate: Compute IPC and basic block cyclesAndi Kleen2-1/+74
Compute the IPC and the basic block cycles for the annotate display. IPC is computed by counting the instructions, and then dividing the accounted cycles by that count. The actual IPC computation can only be done at annotate time, because we need to parse the objdump output first to know the number of instructions in the basic block. The cycles/IPC are also put into the perf function annotation so that the display code can show them. Again basic block overlaps are not handled, with the longest winning, but there are some heuristics to hide the IPC when the longest is not the most common. v2: Compute IPC correctly.

This adds the basic infrastructure to keep track of cycle counts per basic block for annotate. We allocate an array similar to the normal accounting, and then account branch cycles there. We handle two cases: cycles per basic block with start and cycles per branch (these are later used for either IPC or just cycles per BB) In the start case we cannot handle overlaps, so always the longest basic block wins.

2015-08-05perf trace: Write to stderr by defaultMilian Wolff1-1/+1
Without this patch, it is cumbersome to read the trace output but ignoring the normal, potentially verbose, output of the debuggee. One common example is doing something like the following: perf trace -s find /tmp > /dev/null Without this patch, the trace summary will be lost. Now, it will still be printed at the end. This behavior is also applied by strace.

This patchkit adds the ability to turn off time stamps per event. One usaful case for partial time is to work with per-event callgraph to enable "PEBS threshold > 1" (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/10/196), which can significantly reduce the sampling overhead.

2015-08-05perf trace: Deref sys_enter pointer args with contents from probe:vfs_getnameArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-1/+75
To work like strace and dereference syscall pointer args we need to insert probes (or tracepoints) right after we copy those bytes from userspace. Since we're formatting the syscall args at raw_syscalls:sys_enter time, we need to have a formatter that just stores the position where, later, when we get the probe:vfs_getname, we can insert the pointer contents. Now, if a probe:vfs_getname with this format is in place: # perf probe -l probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72@/home/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname) That was, in this case, put in place with: # perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=filename:string' Added new event: probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=filename:string) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1 # Then 'perf trace' will notice that and do the pointer -> contents expansion: # trace -e open touch /tmp/bla 0.165 (0.010 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3 0.195 (0.011 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /lib64/libc.so.6, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3 0.512 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3 0.582 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /tmp/bla, flags: CREAT|NOCTTY|NONBLOCK|WRONLY, mode: 438) = 3 # Roughly equivalent to strace's output: # strace -rT -e open touch /tmp/bla 0.000000 open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000039> 0.000317 open("/lib64/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000102> 0.001461 open("/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000072> 0.000405 open("/tmp/bla", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK, 0666) = 3 <0.000055> 0.000641 +++ exited with 0 +++ # Now we need to either look for at all syscalls that are marked as pointers and have some well known names ("filename", "pathname", etc) and set the arg formatter to the one used for the "open" syscall in this patch. This implementation works for syscalls with just a string being copied from userspace, for matching syscalls with more than one string being copied via the same probe/trace point (vfs_getname) we need to extend the vfs_getname probe spec to include the pointer too, but there are some problems with that in 'perf probe' or the kernel kprobes code, need to investigate before considering supporting multiple strings per syscall.

2015-08-05perf trace: Use a constant for the syscall formatting bufferArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-3/+5
We were using it as a magic number, 1024, fix that. Eventually we need to stop doing it per line, and do it per arg, traversing the args at output time, to avoid the memmove() calls that will be used in the next cset to replace pointers present at raw_syscalls:sys_enter time with its contents that appear at probe:vfs_getname time, before raw_syscalls:sys_exit time.

2015-07-29perf tools: Force period term to overload global settingsJiri Olsa5-4/+16
Currently the command line option settings beats the per event period settings: With no global settings, we get per-event configuration: $ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' sleep 1 $ perf evlist -v ... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 20000 ... With 'c' option period setup, we get 'c' option value: $ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' -c 1000 sleep 1 $ perf evlist -v ... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 1000 ... This patch makes the per-event settings overload the global 'c' option setup: $ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' -c 1000 sleep 1 $ perf evlist -v ... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 20000 ... I think the making the per-event settings to overload any other config makes more sense than current state. However it breaks the current 'period' term handling, which might cause some noise.. so let's see ;-). Also fixing parse event tests with the new behaviour.
