* Merge remote-tracking branch 'tip/perf/urgent' into perf/coreArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2012-05-181-5/+30
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Merge reason: We are going to queue up a dependent patch: "perf tools: Move parse event automated tests to separated object" That depends on: commit e7c72d8 perf tools: Add 'G' and 'H' modifiers to event parsing Conflicts: tools/perf/builtin-stat.c Conflicted with the recent 'perf_target' patches when checking the result of perf_evsel open routines to see if a retry is needed to cope with older kernels where the exclude guest/host perf_event_attr bits were not used.

| * perf stat: Fix case where guest/host monitoring is not supported by kernelStephane Eranian2012-05-011-4/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By default, perf stat sets exclude_guest = 1. But when you run perf on a kernel which does not support host/guest filtering, then you get an error saying the event in unsupported. This comes from the fact that when the perf_event_attr struct passed by the user is larger than the one known to the kernel there is safety check which ensures that all unknown bits are zero. But here, exclude_guest is 1 (part of the unknown bits) and thus the perf_event_open() syscall return EINVAL. To my surprise, running perf record on the same kernel did not exhibit the problem. The reason is that perf record handles the problem by catching the error and retrying with guest/host excludes set to zero. For some reason, this was not done with perf stat. This patch fixes this problem.

* | perf target: Rename functions to avoid double negationNamhyung Kim2012-05-161-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rename perf_target__no_{cpu,task} to perf_target__has_{cpu,task} because it's more intuitive and easy to parse (for human beings) when used with negation. The names are came out from David Ahern. It is intended to be a mechanical substitution without any functional change. The perf_target__none remains unchanged since I couldn't find a right name and it is hardly used with negation.

ISTM that 0.00 is better than nan, since perf stat was passed -A (--no-aggr) so no standard deviation should be expected, and nan is suggestive of a deeper error. When running with --no-aggr, perhaps we should suppress the statistics printing entirely, or do so when they are 0.00.

You could do this with perf record but not with perf stat. Instead, you had to fiddle with stderr to save the counts into a separate file. The patch also adds the --append option so that results can be concatenated into a single file across runs. Each run of the tool is clearly separated by a comment line starting with a hash mark. The -A option of perf record is already used by perf stat, so we only add a long option. $ perf stat -o res.txt date $ cat res.txt Performance counter stats for 'date': 0.791306 task-clock # 0.668 CPUs utilized 2 context-switches # 0.003 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec 197 page-faults # 0.249 M/sec 1878143 cycles # 2.373 GHz <not supported> stalled-cycles-frontend <not supported> stalled-cycles-backend 1083367 instructions # 0.58 insns per cycle 193027 branches # 243.935 M/sec 9014 branch-misses # 4.67% of all branches 0.001184746 seconds time elapsed The option can be combined with -x to make the output file much easier to parse.

* perf stat: Print branch misses warning colorsIngo Molnar2011-04-261-7/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Print the missed-branches percentage with different warning level ASCII colors, as the percentage passes the 5%/10%/20% thresholds. These thresholds are set to relatively low levels, because on most CPUs even a moderate percentage of branch-misses already shows up as a slowdown.

* perf stat: Add stalled cycles to the default outputIngo Molnar2011-04-261-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new default output looks like this: Performance counter stats for './loop_1b_instructions': 236.010686 task-clock # 0.996 CPUs utilized 0 context-switches # 0.000 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec 99 page-faults # 0.000 M/sec 756,487,646 cycles # 3.205 GHz 354,938,996 stalled-cycles # 46.92% of all cycles are idle 1,001,403,797 instructions # 1.32 insns per cycle # 0.35 stalled cycles per insn 100,279,773 branches # 424.895 M/sec 12,646 branch-misses # 0.013 % of all branches 0.236902540 seconds time elapsed We dropped cache-refs and cache-misses and added stalled-cycles - this is a more generic "how well utilized is the CPU" metric. If the stalled-cycles ratio is too high then more specific measurements can be taken to figure out the source of the inefficiency.
