* perf trace: Add a scripts/perl/bin for perf trace shell scriptsTom Zanussi2009-11-2810-0/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To capture the relevant events for a given Perl script and to avoid having to continually remember and type in long command-lines, add a scripts/perl/bin directory containing two simple shell scripts for each Perl script, one for recording and one for processing/display. For example, to record perf data for the rw-by-pid.pl script, run scripts/perl/bin/rw-by-pid-record and to actually run the script and display the output run scripts/perl/bin/rw-by-pid-report.

* perf trace: Add interface to access perf data from Perl handlersTom Zanussi2009-11-2813-13/+474
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Perl scripting support for perf trace allows most of a trace event's data to be accessed directly as handler arguments, but not all of it e.g. the less common fields aren't passed in. To give scripts access to the other fields and/or any other data or metadata in the main perf executable that might be useful, a way to access the C data in perf from Perl is needed; this patch uses the Perl XS facility to do it for the common_xxx event fields not passed to handler functions. Context.pm exports three functions to Perl scripts that access fields for the current event by calling back into perf: common_pc(), common_flags() and common_lock_depth(). Support for common_flags() field values was added to Core.pm and a script used to sanity check these and other basic scripting features, check-perf-trace.pl, was also added.

* perf trace: Add Perl scripting supportTom Zanussi2009-11-286-5/+629
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement trace_scripting_ops to make Perl a supported perf trace scripting language. Additionally adds code that allows Perl trace scripts to access the 'flag' and 'symbolic' (__print_flags(), __print_symbolic()) field information parsed from the trace format files. Also adds the Perl implementation of the generate_script() trace_scripting_op, which creates a ready-to-run perf trace Perl script based on existing trace data. Scripts generated by this implementation print out all the fields for each event mentioned in perf.data (and will detect and generate the proper scripting code for 'flag' and 'symbolic' fields), and will additionally generate handlers for the special 'trace_unhandled', 'trace_begin' and 'trace_end' handlers. Script authors can simply remove the printing code to implement their own custom event handling.

* perf trace: Add scripting opsTom Zanussi2009-11-282-5/+261
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds an interface, scripting_ops, that when implemented for a particular scripting language enables built-in support for trace stream processing using that language. The interface is designed to enable full-fledged language interpreters to be embedded inside the perf executable and thereby make the full capabilities of the supported languages available for trace processing. See below for details on the interface. This patch also adds a couple command-line options to 'perf trace': The -s option option is used to specify the script to be run. Script names that can be used with -s take the form: [language spec:]scriptname[.ext] Scripting languages register a set of 'language specs' that can be used to specify scripts for the registered languages. The specs can be used either as prefixes or extensions. If [language spec:] is used, the script is taken as a script of the matching language regardless of any extension it might have. If [language spec:] is not used, [.ext] is used to look up the language it corresponds to. Language specs are case insensitive. e.g. Perl scripts can be specified in the following ways: Perl:scriptname pl:scriptname.py # extension ignored PL:scriptname scriptname.pl scriptname.perl The -g [language spec] option gives users an easy starting point for writing scripts in the specified language. Scripting support for a particular language can implement a generate_script() scripting op that outputs an empty (or near-empty) set of handlers for all the events contained in a given perf.data trace file - this option gives users a direct way to access that. Adding support for a scripting language --------------------------------------- The main thing that needs to be done do add support for a new language is to implement the scripting_ops interface: It consists of the following four functions: start_script() stop_script() process_event() generate_script() start_script() is called before any events are processed, and is meant to give the scripting language support an opportunity to set things up to receive events e.g. create and initialize an instance of a language interpreter. stop_script() is called after all events are processed, and is meant to give the scripting language support an opportunity to clean up e.g. destroy the interpreter instance, etc. process_event() is called once for each event and takes as its main parameter a pointer to the binary trace event record to be processed. The implementation is responsible for picking out the binary fields from the event record and sending them to the script handler function associated with that event e.g. a function derived from the event name it's meant to handle e.g. 'sched::sched_switch()'. The 'format' information for trace events can be used to parse the binary data and map it into a form usable by a given scripting language; see the Perl implemention in subsequent patches for one possible way to leverage the existing trace format parsing code in perf and map that info into specific scripting language types. generate_script() should generate a ready-to-run script for the current set of events in the trace, preferably with bodies that print out every field for each event. Again, look at the Perl implementation for clues as to how that can be done. This is an optional, but very useful op. Support for a given language should also add a language-specific setup function and call it from setup_scripting(). The language-specific setup function associates the the scripting ops for that language with one or more 'language specifiers' (see below) using script_spec_register(). When a script name is specified on the command line, the scripting ops associated with the specified language are used to instantiate and use the appropriate interpreter to process the trace stream. In general, it should be relatively easy to add support for a new language, especially if the language implementation supports an interface allowing an interpreter to be 'embedded' inside another program (in this case the containing program will be 'perf trace'). If so, it should be relatively straightforward to translate trace events into invocations of user-defined script functions where e.g. the function name corresponds to the event type and the function parameters correspond to the event fields. The event and field type information exported by the event tracing infrastructure (via the event 'format' files) should be enough to parse and send any piece of trace data to the user script. The easiest way to see how this can be done would be to look at the Perl implementation contained in perf/util/trace-event-perl.c/.h. There are a couple of other things that aren't covered by the scripting_ops or setup interface and are technically optional, but should be implemented if possible. One of these is support for 'flag' and 'symbolic' fields e.g. being able to use more human-readable values such as 'GFP_KERNEL' or HI/BLOCK_IOPOLL/TASKLET in place of raw flag values. See the Perl implementation to see how this can be done. The other thing is support for 'calling back' into the perf executable to access e.g. uncommon fields not passed by default into handler functions, or any metadata the implementation might want to make available to users via the language interface. Again, see the Perl implementation for examples.

* perf tools: Consolidate symbol resolving across all toolsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2009-11-2712-222/+172
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now we have a very high level routine for simple tools to process IP sample events: int event__preprocess_sample(const event_t *self, struct addr_location *al, symbol_filter_t filter) It receives the event itself and will insert new threads in the global threads list and resolve the map and symbol, filling all this info into the new addr_location struct, so that tools like annotate and report can further process the event by creating hist_entries in their specific way (with or without callgraphs, etc). It in turn uses the new next layer function: void thread__find_addr_location(struct thread *self, u8 cpumode, enum map_type type, u64 addr, struct addr_location *al, symbol_filter_t filter) This one will, given a thread (userspace or the kernel kthread one), will find the given type (MAP__FUNCTION now, MAP__VARIABLE too in the near future) at the given cpumode, taking vdsos into account (userspace hit, but kernel symbol) and will fill all these details in the addr_location given. Tools that need a more compact API for plain function resolution, like 'kmem', can use this other one: struct symbol *thread__find_function(struct thread *self, u64 addr, symbol_filter_t filter) So, to resolve a kernel symbol, that is all the 'kmem' tool needs, its just a matter of calling: sym = thread__find_function(kthread, addr, NULL); The 'filter' parameter is needed because we do lazy parsing/loading of ELF symtabs or /proc/kallsyms.

To clarify this, rename it to DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS, which follows the various 'DECLARE_*()' idioms we already have in the kernel: DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS(class) DEFINE_EVENT(class, event1) DEFINE_EVENT(class, event2) DEFINE_EVENT(class, event3) To complete this logic we should also rename TRACE_EVENT() to: DEFINE_SINGLE_EVENT(single_event) ... but in a more quiet moment of the kernel cycle.
