2012-06-12perf tools: Fix synthesizing tracepoint names from the perf.data headersArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+32
We need to use the per event info snapshoted at record time to synthesize the events name, so do it just after reading the perf.data headers, when we already processed the /sys events data, otherwise we'll end up using the local /sys that only by sheer luck will have the same tracepoint ID -> real event association. Example: # uname -a Linux felicio.ghostprotocols.net 3.4.0-rc5+ #1 SMP Sat May 19 15:27:11 BRT 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux # perf record -e sched:sched_switch usleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.015 MB perf.data (~648 samples) ] # cat /t/events/sched/sched_switch/id 279 # perf evlist -v sched:sched_switch: sample_freq=1, type: 2, config: 279, size: 80, sample_type: 1159, read_format: 7, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1 # So on the above machine the sched:sched_switch has tracepoint id 279, but on the machine were we'll analyse it it has a different id: $ cat /t/events/sched/sched_switch/id 56 $ perf evlist -i /tmp/perf.data kmem:mm_balancedirty_writeout $ cat /t/events/kmem/mm_balancedirty_writeout/id 279 With this fix: $ perf evlist -i /tmp/perf.data sched:sched_switch Reported-by: Dmitry Antipov <dmitry.antipov@linaro.org> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@gmail.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-auwks8fpuhmrdpiefs55o5oz@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2012-06-11perf stat: Fix default output fileStephane Eranian1-1/+7
The following commit: commit 56f3bae70638b33477a6015fd362ccfe354fd3ee Author: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com> Date: Wed Sep 7 17:14:00 2011 -0600 perf stat: Add --log-fd <N> option to redirect stderr elsewhere introduced a bug in the way perf stat outputs the results by default, i.e., without the --log-fd or --output option. It would default to writing to file descriptor 0, i.e., stdin. Writing to stdin is allowed and is equivalent to writing to stdout. However, there is a major difference for any script that was already capturing the output of perf stat via redirection: perf stat >/tmp/log .... or perf stat 2>/tmp/log .... They would not capture anything anymore. They would have to do: perf stat 0>/tmp/log ... This breaks compatibility with existing scripts and does not look very natural. This patch fixes the problem by looking at output_fd only when it was modified by user (> 0). It also checks that the value if positive. Passing --log-fd 0 is ignored. I would also argue that defaulting to stderr for the results is not the right thing to do, though this patch does not address this specific issue.

2012-06-03tools/power turbostat: fix IVB supportLen Brown1-0/+2
Initial IVB support went into turbostat in Linux-3.1: 553575f1ae048aa44682b46b3c51929a0b3ad337 (tools turbostat: recognize and run properly on IVB) However, when running on IVB, turbostat would fail to report the new couters added with SNB, c7, pc2 and pc7. So in scenarios where these counters are non-zero on IVB, turbostat would report erroneous residencey results. In particular c7 time would be added to c1 time, since c1 time is calculated as "that which is left over". Also, turbostat reports MHz capabilities when passed the "-v" option, and it would incorrectly report 133MHz bclk instead of 100MHz bclk for IVB, which would inflate GHz reported with that option. This patch is a backport of a fix already included in turbostat v2. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2012-06-03tools/power turbostat: fix un-intended affinity of forked programLen Brown1-2/+26
Linux 3.4 included a modification to turbostat to lower cross-call overhead by using scheduler affinity: 15aaa34654831e98dd76f7738b6c7f5d05a66430 (tools turbostat: reduce measurement overhead due to IPIs) In the use-case where turbostat forks a child program, that change had the un-intended side-effect of binding the child to the last cpu in the system. This change removed the binding before forking the child. This is a back-port of a fix already included in turbostat v2. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2012-05-31syscalls, x86: add __NR_kcmp syscallCyrill Gorcunov3-1/+124
While doing the checkpoint-restore in the user space one need to determine whether various kernel objects (like mm_struct-s of file_struct-s) are shared between tasks and restore this state. The 2nd step can be solved by using appropriate CLONE_ flags and the unshare syscall, while there's currently no ways for solving the 1st one. One of the ways for checking whether two tasks share e.g. mm_struct is to provide some mm_struct ID of a task to its proc file, but showing such info considered to be not that good for security reasons. Thus after some debates we end up in conclusion that using that named 'comparison' syscall might be the best candidate. So here is it -- __NR_kcmp. It takes up to 5 arguments - the pids of the two tasks (which characteristics should be compared), the comparison type and (in case of comparison of files) two file descriptors. Lookups for pids are done in the caller's PID namespace only. At moment only x86 is supported and tested.

2012-05-30perf stat: Initialize default events wrt exclude_{guest,host}Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo3-4/+19
When no event is specified the tools use perf_evlist__add_default(), that will call event_attr_init to initialize the KVM exclusion bits. When the change was made to the tools so that by default guest samples would be excluded, the changes were made just to the parsing routines and to perf_evlist__add_default(), not to perf_evlist__add_attrs, that is used so far just by perf stat to add multiple events, according to the level of detail specified. Recently the tools were changed to reconstruct the event name from all the details in perf_event_attr, not just from .type and .config, but taking into account all the feature bits (.exclude_{guest,host,user,kernel,etc}, .precise_ip, etc). That is when we noticed that the default for perf stat wasn't the one for the rest of the tools, i.e. the .exclude_guest bit wasn't being set. I.e. the default, that doesn't call event_attr_init was showing the :HG modifier: $ perf stat usleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1': 0.942119 task-clock # 0.454 CPUs utilized 1 context-switches # 0.001 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 126 page-faults # 0.134 M/sec 693,193 cycles:HG # 0.736 GHz [40.11%] 407,461 stalled-cycles-frontend:HG # 58.78% frontend cycles idle [72.29%] 365,403 stalled-cycles-backend:HG # 52.71% backend cycles idle 465,982 instructions:HG # 0.67 insns per cycle # 0.87 stalled cycles per insn 89,760 branches:HG # 95.275 M/sec 6,178 branch-misses:HG # 6.88% of all branches 0.002077228 seconds time elapsed While if one explicitely specifies the same events, which will make the parsing code to be called and thus event_attr_init is called: $ perf stat -e task-clock,context-switches,migrations,page-faults,cycles,stalled-cycles-frontend,stalled-cycles-backend,instructions,branches,branch-misses usleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1': 1.040349 task-clock # 0.500 CPUs utilized 2 context-switches # 0.002 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 127 page-faults # 0.122 M/sec 587,966 cycles # 0.565 GHz [13.18%] 459,167 stalled-cycles-frontend # 78.09% frontend cycles idle 390,249 stalled-cycles-backend # 66.37% backend cycles idle 504,006 instructions # 0.86 insns per cycle # 0.91 stalled cycles per insn 96,455 branches # 92.714 M/sec 6,522 branch-misses # 6.76% of all branches [96.12%] 0.002078681 seconds time elapsed Fix it by introducing a perf_evlist__add_default_attrs method that will call evlist_attr_init in all the perf_event_attr entries before adding the events.

The modifiers: k kernel space u user space h hypervisor G guest H host p, pp, ppp precision level (PEBS) that can be suffixed to an event were lost when tools used event_name() to reconstruct them from the perf_event_attr entries in a perf.data file. Fix it by following the defaults used for these modifiers in the current codebase, so: $ perf record -e instructions:u usleep 1 2> /dev/null $ perf evlist instructions:u $ perf record -e cycles:k usleep 1 2> /dev/null $ perf evlist cycles:k $ perf record -e cycles:kh usleep 1 2> /dev/null $ perf evlist cycles:kh $ perf record -e cache-misses:G usleep 1 2> /dev/null $ perf evlist cache-misses:G $ perf record -e cycles:ppk usleep 1 2> /dev/null $ perf evlist cycles:kpp $ Also works with 'top', 'report', etc. More work needed to cover tracepoints and software events while not dragging lots of baggage to the python binding, this is a minimal fix for v3.5.

2012-05-25perf top: Fix counter name fixup when fallbacking to cpu-clockArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-1/+1
In 40491eaa "perf top: Update event name when falling back to cpu-clock" we freed counter->name but didn't reset it to NULL, then when setting it to the result of event_name(), event_name() would use the cached value, which by now was overwritten and thus we got garbage or a zero lenght string. Fix it by just freeing and setting counter->name to NULL, this way event_name() when called afterwards, will find the right counter name and cache it again. Found while trying 'cycles:pp' on a machine were :pp couldn't be honoured. Probably the best fallback here is to tell the user that that level of precision is not available on the PMU and then go removing 'p', levels of precision till we get to play 'cycles' and if even that fails, _then_ get to 'cpu-clock'. But that is the matter for another patch, this one just needs to fix the caching issue, which in the end will show 'cpu-clock' when tools ask for the event name being used, which clarifies things for the user, that will see that 'cycles:pp' or whatever not support event is not being used, some sort of fallback happened.

If you don't know which function you want to probe you can pick one from 'perf top' or can get a list all functions that can be probed within libc (binaries can be specified as well): $ perf probe -F -x /lib/libc.so.6 To probe libc's malloc(): $ perf probe -x /lib64/libc.so.6 malloc Added new event: probe_libc:malloc (on 0x7eac0) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1 Make use of it to create a call graph (as the flat profile is going to look very boring): $ perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -gR make [ perf record: Woken up 173 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 44.190 MB perf.data (~1930712 $ perf report | less 32.03% git libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc 29.49% cc1 libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc | |--0.95%-- 0x208eb1000000000 | |--0.63%-- htab_traverse_noresize 11.04% as libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc | 7.15% ld libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc | 5.07% sh libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc | 4.99% python-config libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc | 4.54% make libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc | |--7.34%-- glob | | | |--93.18%-- 0x41588f | | | --6.82%-- glob | 0x41588f ...

The core uprobes design is fairly straightforward: uprobes probe points register themselves at (inode:offset) addresses of libraries/binaries, after which all existing (or new) vmas that map that address will have a software breakpoint injected at that address. vmas are COW-ed to preserve original content. The probe points are kept in an rbtree. If user-space executes the probed inode:offset instruction address then an event is generated which can be recovered from the regular perf event channels and mmap-ed ring-buffer. Multiple probes at the same address are supported, they create a dynamic callback list of event consumers. The basic model is further complicated by the XOL speedup: the original instruction that is probed is copied (in an architecture specific fashion) and executed out of line when the probe triggers. The XOL area is a single vma per process, with a fixed number of entries (which limits probe execution parallelism). The API: uprobes are installed/removed via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, the API is integrated to align with the kprobes interface as much as possible, but is separate to it. Injecting a probe point is privileged operation, which can be relaxed by setting perf_paranoid to -1. You can use multiple probes as well and mix them with kprobes and regular PMU events or tracepoints, when instrumenting a task."
