2013-11-11perf record: Synthesize non-exec MMAP records when --data usedArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-2/+2
When perf_event_attr.mmap_data is set the kernel will generate PERF_RECORD_MMAP events when non-exec (data, SysV mem) mmaps are created, so we need to synthesize from /proc/pid/maps for existing threads, as we do for exec mmaps. Right now just 'perf record' does it, but any other tool that uses perf_event__synthesize_thread(s|map) can request it.

2013-10-11perf evlist: Fix perf_evlist__mmap_read event overflowJiri Olsa1-0/+3
The perf_evlist__mmap_read used 'union perf_event' as a placeholder for event crossing the mmap boundary. This is ok for sample shorter than ~PATH_MAX. However we could grow up to the maximum sample size which is 16 bits max. I hit this overflow issue when using 'perf top -G dwarf' which produces sample with the size around 8192 bytes. We could configure any valid sample size here using: '-G dwarf,size'. Using array with sample max size instead for the event placeholder. Also adding another safe check for the dynamic size of the user stack. TODO: The 'struct perf_mmap' is quite big now, maybe we could use some lazy allocation for event_copy size.

2013-09-11perf tools: Add attr->mmap2 supportStephane Eranian1-0/+19
This patch adds support for the new PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 record type exposed by the kernel. This is an extended PERF_RECORD_MMAP record. It adds for each file-backed mapping the device major, minor number and the inode number and generation. This triplet uniquely identifies the source of a file-backed mapping. It can be used to detect identical virtual mappings between processes, for instance. The patch will prefer MMAP2 over MMAP.

2012-10-06perf event: No need to create a thread when handling PERF_RECORD_EXITArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-1/+5
When we were processing a PERF_RECORD_EXIT event we first used machine__findnew_thread for both the thread exiting and for its parent, only to use just the thread struct associated with the one exiting, and to just delete it. If it existed, i.e. not created at this very moment in machine__findnew_thread, it will be moved to the machine->dead_threads linked list, because we may have hist_entries pointing to it, but if it was created just do be deleted, it will just sit there with no references at all. Use the new machine__find_thread() method so that if it is not there, we don't create it. As a bonus the parent thread will also not be created at this point. Create process_fork() and process_exit() helpers to use this and make the builtins use it instead of the generic process_task(), ditched by this patch.

So that we don't need to have that many globals. Next steps will remove the 'session' pointer, that in most cases is not needed. Then we can rename perf_event_ops to 'perf_tool' that better describes this class hierarchy.

2011-09-23perf tool: Fix endianness handling of u32 data in samplesDavid Ahern1-1/+1
Currently, analyzing PPC data files on x86 the cpu field is always 0 and the tid and pid are backwards. For example, analyzing a PPC file on PPC the pid/tid fields show: rsyslogd 1210/1212 and analyzing the same PPC file using an x86 perf binary shows: rsyslogd 1212/1210 The problem is that the swap_op method for samples is perf_event__all64_swap which assumes all elements in the sample_data struct are u64s. cpu, tid and pid are u32s and need to be handled individually. Given that the swap is done before the sample is parsed, the simplest solution is to undo the 64-bit swap of those elements when the sample is parsed and do the proper swap. The RAW data field is generic and perf cannot have programmatic knowledge of how to treat that data. Instead a warning is given to the user. Thanks to Anton Blanchard for providing a data file for a mult-CPU PPC system so I could verify the fix for the CPU fields. v3 -> v4: - fixed use of WARN_ONCE v2 -> v3: - used WARN_ONCE for message regarding raw data - removed struct wrapper around union - fixed whitespace issues v1 -> v2: - added a union for undoing the byte-swap on u64 and redoing swap on u32's to address compiler errors (see git commit 65014ab3) Cc: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1315321946-16993-1-git-send-email-dsahern@gmail.com Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Not finding die(), which it shouldn't anyway, not good to just stop the world because some particular perf.data file is invalid, just propagate the error to the caller. .

So I investigated this and noticed that when we introduced support for recording a process and its threads using --pid some bugs were introduced and that the way to fix it was to instead of passing the target_tid to the event synthesizing routines we should better pass the thread_map that has the list of threads for a --pid or just the single thread for a --tid.

At perf_session__process_event, so that we reduce the number of lines in eache tool sample processing routine that now receives a sample_data pointer already parsed. This will also be useful in the next patch, where we'll allow sample the identity fields in MMAP, FORK, EXIT, etc, when it will be possible to see (cpu, timestamp) just after before every event. Also validate callchains in perf_session__process_event, i.e. as early as possible, and keep a counter of the number of events discarded due to invalid callchains, warning the user about it if it happens. There is an assumption that was kept that all events have the same sample_type, that will be dealt with in the future, when this preexisting limitation will be removed.

2010-05-10perf hist: Introduce hists class and move lots of methods to itArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-14/+0
In cbbc79a we introduced support for multiple events by introducing a new "event_stat_id" struct and then made several perf_session methods receive a point to it instead of a pointer to perf_session, and kept the event_stats and hists rb_tree in perf_session. While working on the new newt based browser, I realised that it would be better to introduce a new class, "hists" (short for "histograms"), renaming the "event_stat_id" struct and the perf_session methods that were really "hists" methods, as they manipulate only struct hists members, not touching anything in the other perf_session members. Other optimizations, such as calculating the maximum lenght of a symbol name present in an hists instance will be possible as we add them, avoiding a re-traversal just for finding that information. The rationale for the name "hists" to replace "event_stat_id" is that we may have multiple sets of hists for the same event_stat id, as, for instance, the 'perf diff' tool has, so event stat id is not what characterizes what this struct and the functions that manipulate it do.

2010-04-14perf: Convert perf event types into event type eventsTom Zanussi1-0/+14
Bypasses the event type perf header code and replaces it with a synthesized event and processing function that accomplishes the same thing, used when reading/writing perf data to/from a pipe.

2010-04-14perf: Convert perf header attrs into attr eventsTom Zanussi1-1/+9
Bypasses the attr perf header code and replaces it with a synthesized event and processing function that accomplishes the same thing, used when reading/writing perf data to/from a pipe. Making the attrs into events allows them to be streamed over a pipe along with the rest of the header data (in later patches). It also paves the way to allowing events to be added and removed from perf sessions dynamically.
