* perf tools: Fix usage of max_stack sysctlArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2016-05-201-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We cannot limit processing stacks from the current value of the sysctl, as we may be processing perf.data files, possibly from other machines. Instead use the old PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH, the sysctl default, that can be overriden using --max-stack or equivalent.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack There is an upper limit to what tooling considers a valid callchain, and it was tied to the hardcoded value in the kernel, PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH (127), now that this can be tuned via a sysctl, make it read it and use that as the upper limit, falling back to PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH for kernels where this sysctl isn't present.

* perf callchain: Start moving away from global per thread cursorsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2016-04-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The recent perf_evsel__fprintf_callchain() move to evsel.c added several new symbol requirements to the python binding, for instance: # perf test -v python 16: Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems : --- start --- test child forked, pid 18030 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: callchain_cursor test child finished with -1 ---- end ---- Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems: FAILED! # This would require linking against callchain.c to access to the global callchain_cursor variables. Since lots of functions already receive as a parameter a callchain_cursor struct pointer, make that be the case for some more function so that we can start phasing out usage of yet another global variable.

* perf script perl: Perl scripts now get a backtrace, like the python onesDima Kogan2016-03-301-8/+106
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have some infrastructure to use perl or python to analyze logs generated by perf. Prior to this patch, only the python tools had access to backtrace information. This patch makes this information available to perl scripts as well. Example: Let's look at malloc() calls made by the seq utility. First we create a probe point: $ perf probe -x /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 malloc Added new events: ... Now we run seq, while monitoring malloc() calls with perf $ perf record --call-graph=dwarf -e probe_libc:malloc seq 5 1 2 3 4 5 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.064 MB perf.data (6 samples) ] We can use perf to look at its log to see the malloc calls and the backtrace $ perf script seq 14195 [000] 1927993.748254: probe_libc:malloc: (7f9ff8edd320) bytes=0x22 7f9ff8edd320 malloc (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so) 7f9ff8e8eab0 set_binding_values.part.0 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so) 7f9ff8e8eda1 __bindtextdomain (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so) 401b22 main (/usr/bin/seq) 7f9ff8e82610 __libc_start_main (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so) 402799 _start (/usr/bin/seq) ... We can also use the scripting facilities. We create a skeleton perl script that simply prints out the events $ perf script -g perl generated Perl script: perf-script.pl We can then use this script to see the malloc() calls with a backtrace. Prior to this patch, the backtrace was not available to the perl scripts. $ perf script -s perf-script.pl probe_libc::malloc 0 1927993.748254260 14195 seq __probe_ip=140325052863264, bytes=34 [7f9ff8edd320] malloc [7f9ff8e8eab0] set_binding_values.part.0 [7f9ff8e8eda1] __bindtextdomain [401b22] main [7f9ff8e82610] __libc_start_main [402799] _start ...

* perf script: Exception handling when the print fmt is emptyTaeung Song2016-02-251-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After collecting samples for events 'syscalls:', perf-script with python script doesn't occasionally work generating a segmentation fault. The reason is that the print fmt is empty and a value of event->print_fmt.args is NULL, so dereferencing the null pointer results in a segmentation fault i.e.: # perf record -e syscalls:* # perf script -g python # perf script -s perf-script.py in trace_begin syscalls__sys_enter_brk 3 79841.832099154 3777 test.sh syscall_nr=12, brk=0 ... (omitted) ... Segmentation fault (core dumped) For example, a format of sys_enter_getuid() hasn't print fmt as below. # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_getuid/format name: sys_enter_getuid ID: 188 format: field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0; field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0; field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; signed:0; field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1; field:int syscall_nr; offset:8; size:4; signed:1; print fmt: "" So add exception handling to avoid this problem.

* tools lib traceevent: Added support for __get_bitmask() macroSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)2014-06-071-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Coming in v3.16, trace events will be able to save bitmasks in raw format in the ring buffer and output it with the __get_bitmask() macro. In order for userspace tools to parse this, it must be able to handle the __get_bitmask() call and be able to convert the data that's in the ring buffer into a nice bitmask format. The output is similar to what the kernel uses to print bitmasks, with a comma separator every 4 bytes (8 characters). This allows for cpumasks to also be saved efficiently. The first user is the thermal:thermal_power_limit event which has the following output: thermal_power_limit: cpus=0000000f freq=1900000 cdev_state=0 power=5252 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140506132238.22e136d1@gandalf.local.home Suggested-by: Javi Merino <javi.merino@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Tested-by: Javi Merino <javi.merino@arm.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140603032224.229186537@goodmis.org Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>

* perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variablesIrina Tirdea2012-09-111-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking unused variables. The variable __used is defined to __attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to __attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning: '__used__' attribute ignored __unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition. If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name in its headers. The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android. This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with __maybe_unused.

Struct thread is already a member of struct addr_location, using addr_location will keep the thread info, while providing additional symbol and dso info if exist, so that the script itself doesn't need to bother to do the symbol resolving and dso searching work.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We already lookup the associated event_format when reading the perf.data header, so that we can cache the tracepoint name in evsel->name, so do it a little further and save the event_format itself, so that we can avoid relookups in tools that need to access it. Change the tools to take the most obvious advantage, when they were using pevent_find_event directly. More work is needed for further removing the need of a pointer to pevent, such as when asking for event field values ("common_pid" and the other common fields and per event_format fields). This is something that was planned but only got actually done when Andrey Wagin needed to do this lookup at perf_tool->sample() time, when we don't have access to pevent (session->pevent) to use with pevent_find_event().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pevent thing is per perf.data file, so I made it stop being static and become a perf_session member, so tools processing perf.data files use perf_session and _there_ we read the trace events description into session->pevent and then change everywhere to stop using that single global pevent variable and use the per session one. Note that it _doesn't_ fall backs to trace__event_id, as we're not interested at all in what is present in the /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events in the workstation doing the analysis, just in what is in the perf.data file. This patch also introduces perf_session__set_tracepoints_handlers that is the perf perf.data/session way to associate handlers to tracepoint events by resolving their IDs using the events descriptions stored in a perf.data file. Make 'perf sched' use it.

* perf script: Add generic perl handler to process eventsRobert Richter2011-12-231-6/+67
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current perf scripting facility only supports tracepoints. This patch implements a generic perl handler to support other events than tracepoints too. This patch introduces a function process_event() that is called by perf for each sample. The function is called with byte streams as arguments containing information about the event, its attributes, the sample and raw data. Perl's unpack() function can easily be used for byte decoding. The following is the default implementation for process_event() that can also be generated with perf script: # Packed byte string args of process_event(): # # $event: union perf_event util/event.h # $attr: struct perf_event_attr linux/perf_event.h # $sample: struct perf_sample util/event.h # $raw_data: perf_sample->raw_data util/event.h sub process_event { my ($event, $attr, $sample, $raw_data) = @_; my @event = unpack("LSS", $event); my @attr = unpack("LLQQQQQLLQQ", $attr); my @sample = unpack("QLLQQQQQLL", $sample); my @raw_data = unpack("C*", $raw_data); use Data::Dumper; print Dumper \@event, \@attr, \@sample, \@raw_data; } Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1323969824-9711-4-git-send-email-robert.richter@amd.com Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Good also because it does an extra validation, checking that the ID is valid when present. When that is not the case, the overhead is just a branch + function call (perf_evlist__id2evsel).
