2016-02-22perf bpf: Add API to set values to map entries in a bpf objectWang Nan2-0/+314
bpf__config_obj() is introduced as a core API to config BPF object after loading. One configuration option of maps is introduced. After this patch BPF object can accept assignments like: map:my_map.value=1234 (map.my_map.value looks pretty. However, there's a small but hard to fix problem related to flex's greedy matching. Please see [1]. Choose ':' to avoid it in a simpler way.) This patch is more complex than the work it does because the consideration of extension. In designing BPF map configuration, the following things should be considered: 1. Array indices selection: perf should allow user setting different value for different slots in an array, with syntax like: map:my_map.value[0,3...6]=1234; 2. A map should be set by different config terms, each for a part of it. For example, set each slot to the pid of a thread; 3. Type of value: integer is not the only valid value type. A perf counter can also be put into a map after commit 35578d798400 ("bpf: Implement function bpf_perf_event_read() that get the selected hardware PMU counter") 4. For a hash table, it should be possible to use a string or other value as a key; 5. It is possible that map configuration is unable to be setup during parsing. A perf counter is an example. Therefore, this patch does the following: 1. Instead of updating map element during parsing, this patch stores map config options in 'struct bpf_map_priv'. Following patches will apply those configs at an appropriate time; 2. Link map operations in a list so a map can have multiple config terms attached, so different parts can be configured separately; 3. Make 'struct bpf_map_priv' extensible so that the following patches can add new types of keys and operations; 4. Use bpf_obj_config__map_funcs array to support more map config options. Since the patch changing the event parser to parse BPF object config is relative large, I've put it in another commit. Code in this patch can be tested after applying the next patch.

2016-02-22perf tools: Fix assertion failure on dynamic entryNamhyung Kim1-0/+3
The dynamic entry is created for each field in a tracepoint event. Since they have no fixed hpp format index, it should skip when perf_hpp__reset_width() is called.

2016-02-22perf tools: Update srcline/file if neededNamhyung Kim1-33/+31
Normally the hist entry's srcline and/or srcfile is set during sorting. However sometime it's possible to a hist entry's srcline is not set yet after the sorting. This is because the entry is so unique and other sort keys already make it distinct. Then the srcline/file sort didn't have a chance to be called during the sorting. In that case it has NULL srcline/srcfile field and shows nothing. Before: $ perf report -s comm,sym,srcline ...

Currently 'perf top --tui' decrements percentage of all entries on any key press. This is because it adds total period as new samples are added to hists. As perf-top does it currently but added samples are not passed to the display thread, the percentages are decresing continuously.

2016-02-19perf bpf: Rename bpf_prog_priv__clear() to clear_prog_priv()Wang Nan1-3/+3
The name of bpf_prog_priv__clear() doesn't follow perf's naming convention. bpf_prog_priv__delete() seems to be a better name. However, bpf_prog_priv__delete() should be a method of 'struct bpf_prog_priv', but its first parameter is 'struct bpf_program'. It is callback from libbpf to clear priv structures when destroying a bpf program. It is actually a method of bpf_program (libbpf object), but bpf_program__ functions should be provided by libbpf. This patch removes the prefix of that function.

2016-02-12perf data: Fix releasing event_classWang Nan1-0/+18
A new patch in libbabeltrace [1] reveals a object leak problem in 'perf data' CTF support: perf code never releases the event_class which is allocated in add_event() and stored in evsel's private field. If libbabeltrace has the above patch applied, leaking event_class prevents the writer from being destroyed and flushing metadata. For example: $ perf record ls perf.data [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.012 MB perf.data (12 samples) ] $ perf data convert --to-ctf ./out.ctf [ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './out.ctf' ] [ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 0.000 MB (12 samples) ] $ cat ./out.ctf/metadata $ ls -l ./out.ctf/metadata -rw-r----- 1 w00229757 mm 0 Jan 27 10:49 ./out.ctf/metadata The correct result should be: ... $ cat ./out.ctf/metadata /* CTF 1.8 */ trace { [SNIP] $ ls -l ./out.ctf/metadata -rw-r----- 1 w00229757 mm 2446 Jan 27 10:52 ./out.ctf/metadata The full story is: Patch [1] of babeltrace redesigns its reference counting scheme. In that patch: * writer <- trace (bt_ctf_writer_create) * trace <- stream_class (bt_ctf_trace_add_stream_class) * stream_class <- event_class (bt_ctf_stream_class_add_event_class) ('<-' means 'is a parent of') Holding of event_class causes reference count of corresponding 'writer' to increase through parent chain. Perf expects that 'writer' is released (so metadata is flushed) through bt_ctf_writer_put() in ctf_writer__cleanup(). However, since it never releases event_class, the reference of 'writer' won't be dropped, so bt_ctf_writer_put() won't lead to the release of writer. Before this CTF patch, !(writer <- trace). Even with event_class leaking, the writer ends up being released.

2016-02-12perf hists: Do column alignment on the format iteratorArnaldo Carvalho de Melo5-19/+48
We were doing column alignment in the format function for each cell, returning a string padded with spaces so that when the next column is printed the cursor is at its column alignment. This ends up needlessly printing trailing spaces, do it at the format iterator, that is where we know if it is needed, i.e. if there is more columns to be printed. This eliminates the need for triming lines when doing a dump using 'P' in the TUI browser and also produces far saner results with things like piping 'perf report' to 'less'. Right now only the formatters for sym->name and the 'locked' column (perf mem report), that are the ones that end up at the end of lines in the default 'perf report', 'perf top' and 'perf mem report' tools, the others will be done in a subsequent patch. In the end the 'width' parameter for the formatters now mean, in 'printf' terms, the 'precision', where before it was the field 'width'.

2016-02-12perf symbols: Fix symbols searching for module in buildid-cacheWang Nan3-0/+49
Before this patch, if a sample is triggered inside a module not in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/, even if the module is in buildid-cache, 'perf report' will still be unable to find the correct symbol. For example: # rm -rf ~/.debug/ # perf buildid-cache -a ./mymodule.ko # perf probe -m ./mymodule.ko -a get_mymodule_val Added new event: probe:get_mymodule_val (on get_mymodule_val in mymodule) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:get_mymodule_val -aR sleep 1 # perf record -e probe:get_mymodule_val cat /proc/mymodule mymodule:3 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.011 MB perf.data (1 samples) ] # perf report --stdio [SNIP] # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ....... ................ ...................... # 100.00% cat [mymodule] [k] 0x0000000000000001 # perf report -vvvv --stdio dso__load_sym: adjusting symbol: st_value: 0 sh_addr: 0 sh_offset: 0x70 symbol__new: get_mymodule_val 0x70-0x8a [SNIP] This is caused by dso__load() -> dso__load_sym(). In dso__load(), kmod is true only when its file is found in some well know directories. All files loaded from buildid-cache are treated as user programs. Following dso__load_sym() set map->pgoff incorrectly. This patch gives kernel modules in buildid-cache a chance to adjust value of kmod. After dso__load() get the type of symbols, if it is buildid, check the last 3 chars of original filename against '.ko', and adjust the value of kmod if the file is a kernel module.
