2016-02-18perf record: Add --all-user/--all-kernel optionsJiri Olsa4-0/+24
Allow user to easily switch all events to user or kernel space with simple --all-user or --all-kernel options. This will be handy within perf mem/c2c wrappers to switch easily monitoring modes. Committer note: Testing it: # perf record --all-kernel --all-user -a sleep 2 Error: option `all-user' cannot be used with all-kernel Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>] or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>] --all-user Configure all used events to run in user space. --all-kernel Configure all used events to run in kernel space. # perf record --all-user --all-kernel -a sleep 2 Error: option `all-kernel' cannot be used with all-user Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>] or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>] --all-kernel Configure all used events to run in kernel space. --all-user Configure all used events to run in user space. # perf record --all-user -a sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.416 MB perf.data (162 samples) ] # perf report | grep '\[k\]' # perf record --all-kernel -a sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.423 MB perf.data (296 samples) ] # perf report | grep '\[\.\]' # Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1455525293-8671-2-git-send-email-jolsa@kernel.org [ Made those options to be mutually exclusive ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2016-02-16perf stat: Abstract stat metrics printingAndi Kleen3-103/+194
Abstract the printing of shadow metrics. Instead of every metric calling fprintf directly and taking care of indentation, use two call backs: one to print metrics and another to start a new line. This will allow adding metrics to CSV mode and also using them for other purposes. The computation of padding is now done in the central callback, instead of every metric doing it manually. This makes it easier to add new metrics. v2: Refactor functions, printout now does more. Move shadow printing. Improve fallback callbacks. Don't use void * callback data. v3: Remove unnecessary hunk. Add typedef for new_line v4: Remove unnecessary hunk. Don't print metrics for CSV/interval mode yet. Move printout change to separate patch. v5: Fix bisect bugs. Avoid bogus frontend cycles printing.

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'.

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.

2016-02-05perf jit: add source line info supportStephane Eranian8-39/+768
This patch adds source line information support to perf for jitted code. The source line info must be emitted by the runtime, such as JVMTI. Perf injects extract the source line info from the jitdump file and adds the corresponding .debug_lines section in the ELF image generated for each jitted function. The source line enables matching any address in the profile with a source file and line number. The improvement is visible in perf annotate with the source code displayed alongside the assembly code. The dwarf code leverages the support from OProfile which is also released under GPLv2. Copyright 2007 OProfile authors.

2016-02-05perf tools: add JVMTI agent libraryStephane Eranian4-0/+778
This is a standalone JVMTI library to help profile Java jitted code with perf record/perf report. The library is not installed or compiled automatically by perf Makefile. It is not used directly by perf. It is arch agnostic and has been tested on X86 and ARM. It needs to be used with a Java runtime, such as OpenJDK, as follows: $ java -agentpath:libjvmti.so ....... See the "Committer Notes" below on how to build it. When used this way, java will generate a jitdump binary file in $HOME/.debug/java/jit/java-jit-* This binary dump file contains information to help symbolize and annotate jitted code. The jitdump information must be injected into the perf.data file using: $ perf inject --jit -i perf.data -o perf.data.jitted This injects the MMAP records to cover the jitted code and also generates one ELF image for each jitted function. The ELF images are created in the same subdir as the jitdump file. The MMAP records point there too. Then, to visualize the function or asm profile, simply use the regular perf commands: $ perf report -i perf.data.jitted or $ perf annotate -i perf.data.jitted JVMTI agent code adapted from the OProfile's opagent code. This version of the JVMTI agent is using the CLOCK_MONOTONIC as the time source to timestamp jit samples. To correlate with perf_events samples, it needs to run on kernel 4.0.0-rc5+ or later with the following commit from Peter Zijlstra: 34f439278cef ("perf: Add per event clockid support") With this patch recording jitted code is done as follows: $ perf record -k mono -- java -agentpath:libjvmti.so ....... -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Committer Notes: Extended testing instructions: $ cd tools/perf/jvmti/ $ dnf install java-devel $ make Then, create some simple java stuff to record some samples: $ cat hello.java public class hello { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello, World"); } } $ javac hello.java $ java hello Hello, World $ And then record it using this jvmti thing: $ perf record -k mono java -agentpath:/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/jvmti/libjvmti.so hello java: jvmti: jitdump in /home/acme/.debug/jit/java-jit-20160205.XXWIEDls/jit-1908.dump Hello, World [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.030 MB perf.data (268 samples) ] $ Now lets insert the PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 records to point jitted mmaps to files created by the agent: $ perf inject --jit -i perf.data -o perf.data.jitted And finally see that it did its job: $ perf report -D -i perf.data.jitted | grep PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 | tail -5 79197149129422 0xfe10 [0xa0]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 1908/1923: [0x7f172428bd60(0x80) @ 0x40 fd:02 1840554 1]: --xs /home/acme/.debug/jit/java-jit-20160205.XXWIEDls/jitted-1908-283.so 79197149235701 0xfeb0 [0xa0]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 1908/1923: [0x7f172428ba60(0x180) @ 0x40 fd:02 1840555 1]: --xs /home/acme/.debug/jit/java-jit-20160205.XXWIEDls/jitted-1908-284.so 79197149250558 0xff50 [0xa0]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 1908/1923: [0x7f172428b860(0x180) @ 0x40 fd:02 1840556 1]: --xs /home/acme/.debug/jit/java-jit-20160205.XXWIEDls/jitted-1908-285.so 79197149714746 0xfff0 [0xa0]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 1908/1923: [0x7f172428b660(0x180) @ 0x40 fd:02 1840557 1]: --xs /home/acme/.debug/jit/java-jit-20160205.XXWIEDls/jitted-1908-286.so 79197149806558 0x10090 [0xa0]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 1908/1923: [0x7f172428b460(0x180) @ 0x40 fd:02 1840558 1]: --xs /home/acme/.debug/jit/java-jit-20160205.XXWIEDls/jitted-1908-287.so $ So: $ perf report -D -i perf.data | grep PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 | wc -l Failed to open /tmp/perf-1908.map, continuing without symbols 21 $ perf report -D -i perf.data.jitted | grep PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 | wc -l 307 $ echo $((307 - 21)) 286 $ 286 extra PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 records.

2016-02-05perf inject: Add jitdump mmap injection supportStephane Eranian8-3/+1418
This patch adds a --jit/-j option to perf inject. This options injects MMAP records into the perf.data file to cover the jitted code mmaps. It also emits ELF images for each function in the jidump file. Those images are created where the jitdump file is. The MMAP records point to that location as well. Typical flow: $ perf record -k mono -- java -agentpath:libpjvmti.so java_class $ perf inject --jit -i perf.data -o perf.data.jitted $ perf report -i perf.data.jitted Note that jitdump.h support is not limited to Java, it works with any jitted environment modified to emit the jitdump file format, include those where code can be jitted multiple times and moved around. The jitdump.h format is adapted from the Oprofile project. The genelf.c (ELF binary generation) depends on MD5 hash encoding for the buildid. To enable this, libssl-dev must be installed. If not, then genelf.c defaults to using urandom to generate the buildid, which is not ideal. The Makefile auto-detects the presence on libssl-dev. This version mmaps the jitdump file to create a marker MMAP record in the perf.data file. The marker is used to detect jitdump and cause perf inject to inject the jitted mmaps and generate ELF images for jitted functions. In V8, the following fixes and changes were made among other things: - the jidump header format include a new flags field to be used to carry information about the configuration of the runtime agent. Contributed by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> - Fix mmap pgoff: MMAP event pgoff must be the offset within the ELF file at which the code resides. Contributed by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> - Fix ELF virtual addresses: perf tools expect the ELF virtual addresses of dynamic objects to match the file offset. Contributed by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> - JIT MMAP injection does not obey finished_round semantics. JIT MMAP injection injects all MMAP events in one go, so it does not obey finished_round semantics, so drop the finished_round events from the output perf.data file.

So that we do less visual searching on the 'make build-test' output to see the feature related variables: After: $ make -C tools/perf build-test <SNIP> make_no_newt_O: cd . && make NO_NEWT=1 FEATURES_DUMP=/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/BUILD_TEST_FEATURE_DUMP O=/tmp/tmp.dz55IX DESTDIR=/tmp/tmp.X29xxo make_tags_O: cd . && make tags FEATURES_DUMP=/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/BUILD_TEST_FEATURE_DUMP O=/tmp/tmp.6ecLh8 DESTDIR=/tmp/tmp.6vIla578Ho make_util_pmu_bison_o_O: cd . && make util/pmu-bison.o FEATURES_DUMP=/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/BUILD_TEST_FEATURE_DUMP O=/tmp/tmp.SVPM2G DESTDIR=/tmp/tmp.C0oAam Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-dx4krgzqa566v1pedrbrcchi@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2016-02-04perf build tests: Elide "-f Makefile" from make invokationArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-3/+6
Since this is the name that 'make' will look for if no explicit -f file is passed. This in turn makes the output of 'build-test' more compact: Before: $ perf stat make -C tools/perf build-test <SNIP> cd . && make FEATURE_DUMP_COPY=/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/BUILD_TEST_FEATURE_DUMP feature-dump make_no_libaudit_O: cd . && make -f Makefile O=/tmp/tmp.tHIa0Kkk2Y DESTDIR=/tmp/tmp.foK7rckkVi NO_LIBAUDIT=1 FEATURES_DUMP=/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/BUILD_TEST_FEATURE_DUMP <SNIP> After: $ perf stat make -C tools/perf build-test <SNIP> make_no_libaudit_O: cd . && make O=/tmp/tmp.tHIa0Kkk2Y DESTDIR=/tmp/tmp.foK7rckkVi NO_LIBAUDIT=1 FEATURES_DUMP=/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/BUILD_TEST_FEATURE_DUMP <SNIP> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-m440lb8dkfsywsyah0htif6t@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: - tracepoint_error() can receive e=NULL, robustify it, fixes a problem noticed with a very specific combination: Machine with Intel PT (e.g. Broadwell), kernel with no perf_event_attr.context_switch feature (e.g. 4.2) and unreadable tracefs (for instance !root users), making the fallback from perf_event_attr.context_switch to the sched:sched_switch tracepoint to fail reading its info from tracefs, fix it. (Adrian Hunter) - Fix segfault in intel PT, by making it follow the 'struct thread' lifetime cycle checking expectations, noticed for instance, when processing perf.data files with Intel PT data using 'perf script' and when exiting 'perf report' (Adrian Hunter) - Fix CFI usage from .eh_frame and .debug_frame, which sometimes requires that we fallback from .eh_frame to .debug_frame in architectures such as PowerPC (Hemant Kumar) Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
2016-02-03perf stat: Fix interval output valuesJiri Olsa1-0/+10
We broke interval data displays with commit: 3f416f22d1e2 ("perf stat: Do not clean event's private stats") This commit removed stats cleaning, which is important for '-r' option to carry counters data over the whole run. But it's necessary to clean it for interval mode, otherwise the displayed value is avg of all previous values. Before: $ perf stat -e cycles -a -I 1000 record # time counts unit events 1.000240796 75,216,287 cycles 2.000512791 107,823,524 cycles $ perf stat report # time counts unit events 1.000240796 75,216,287 cycles 2.000512791 91,519,906 cycles Now: $ perf stat report # time counts unit events 1.000240796 75,216,287 cycles 2.000512791 107,823,524 cycles Notice the second value being bigger (91,.. < 107,..). This could be easily verified by using perf script which displays raw stat data: $ perf script CPU THREAD VAL ENA RUN TIME EVENT 0 -1 23855779 1000209530 1000209530 1000240796 cycles 1 -1 33340397 1000224964 1000224964 1000240796 cycles 2 -1 15835415 1000226695 1000226695 1000240796 cycles 3 -1 2184696 1000228245 1000228245 1000240796 cycles 0 -1 97014312 2000514533 2000514533 2000512791 cycles 1 -1 46121497 2000543795 2000543795 2000512791 cycles 2 -1 32269530 2000543566 2000543566 2000512791 cycles 3 -1 7634472 2000544108 2000544108 2000512791 cycles The sum of the first 4 values is the first interval aggregated value: 23855779 + 33340397 + 15835415 + 2184696 = 75,216,287 The sum of the second 4 values minus first value is the second interval aggregated value: 97014312 + 46121497 + 32269530 + 7634472 - 75216287 = 107,823,524 Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1454485436-20639-1-git-send-email-jolsa@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
