* 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: Fix double free on command_lineColin Ian King2016-03-031-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 'command_line' variable is free'd twice if db_export__branch_types() fails. To avoid this, defer the free'ing of 'command_line' to after this call so that the error return path will just free 'command_line' once.

* 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.

* perf script: Add python support for stat eventsJiri Olsa2016-01-061-6/+109
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support to get stat events data in perf python scripts. The python script shall implement the following new interface to process stat data: def stat__<event_name>_[<modifier>](cpu, thread, time, val, ena, run): - is called for every stat event for given counter, if user monitors 'cycles,instructions:u" following callbacks should be defined: def stat__cycles(cpu, thread, time, val, ena, run): def stat__instructions_u(cpu, thread, time, val, ena, run): def stat__interval(time): - is called for every interval with its time, in non interval mode it's called after last stat event with total measured time in ns The rest of the current interface stays untouched..

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The raw_syscalls:sys_enter tracer for instance passes has one argument named 'arg' which is an array of 6 integers. Right the python scripts gets only 0 passed as an argument. The reason is that pevent_read_number() can not handle data types of 48 and returns always 0. This patch changes this by passing num array as list of nums which fit the description. As a result python will now see a list named arg which contains 6 (integer) items.

* 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 script python: Fix mem leak due to missing Py_DECREFs on dict entriesJoseph Schuchart2013-10-241-13/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We are using the Python scripting interface in perf to extract kernel events relevant for performance analysis of HPC codes. We noticed that the "perf script" call allocates a significant amount of memory (in the order of several 100 MiB) during it's run, e.g. 125 MiB for a 25 MiB input file: $> perf record -o perf.data -a -R -g fp \ -e power:cpu_frequency -e sched:sched_switch \ -e sched:sched_migrate_task -e sched:sched_process_exit \ -e sched:sched_process_fork -e sched:sched_process_exec \ -e cycles -m 4096 --freq 4000 $> /usr/bin/time perf script -i perf.data -s dummy_script.py 0.84user 0.13system 0:01.92elapsed 51%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 125532maxresident)k 73072inputs+0outputs (57major+33086minor)pagefaults 0swaps Upon further investigation using the valgrind massif tool, we noticed that Python objects that are created in trace-event-python.c via PyString_FromString*() (and their Integer and Long counterparts) are never free'd. The reason for this seem to be missing Py_DECREF calls on the objects that are returned by these functions and stored in the Python dictionaries. The Python dictionaries do not steal references (as opposed to Python tuples and lists) but instead add their own reference. Hence, the reference that is returned by these object creation functions is never released and the memory is leaked. (see [1,2]) The attached patch fixes this by wrapping all relevant calls to PyDict_SetItemString() and decrementing the reference counter immediately after the Python function call. This reduces the allocated memory to a reasonable amount: $> /usr/bin/time perf script -i perf.data -s dummy_script.py 0.73user 0.05system 0:00.79elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 49132maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+14045minor)pagefaults 0swaps For comparison, with a 120 MiB input file the memory consumption reported by time drops from almost 600 MiB to 146 MiB. The patch has been tested using Linux 3.8.2 with Python 2.7.4 and Linux 3.11.6 with Python 2.7.5. Please let me know if you need any further information.

* perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variablesIrina Tirdea2012-09-111-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

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 event parsing code in perf was originally copied from trace-cmd but never was kept up-to-date with the changes that was done there. The trace-cmd libtraceevent.a code is much more mature than what is currently in perf. This updates the code to use wrappers to handle the calls to the new event parsing code. The new code requires a handle to be pass around, which removes the global event variables and allows more than one event structure to be read from different files (and different machines). But perf still has the old global events and the code throughout perf does not yet have a nice way to pass around a handle. A global 'pevent' has been made for perf and the old calls have been created as wrappers to the new event parsing code that uses the global pevent. With this change, perf can later incorporate the pevent handle into the perf structures and allow more than one file to be read and compared, that contains different events.
