* perf data: Fix releasing event_classWang Nan2016-02-121-0/+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.

* perf hists: Do column alignment on the format iteratorArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2016-02-123-10/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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'.

* perf symbols: Fix symbols searching for module in buildid-cacheWang Nan2016-02-123-0/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before this patch, if a sample is triggered inside a module not in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/, even if the module is in buildid-cache, 'perf report' will still be unable to find the correct symbol. 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.

* perf jit: add source line info supportStephane Eranian2016-02-055-8/+634
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* perf inject: Add jitdump mmap injection supportStephane Eranian2016-02-056-0/+1316
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

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>

The check is based on whether either one of these sections is present. Depending on distro, toolchain defaults, architetcutre, build flags, etc., CFI might be found in either .eh_frame and/or .debug_frame. Sometimes, it may happen that, .eh_frame, even if present, may not be complete and may miss some descriptions. Therefore, to be sure, to find the CFI covering an address we will always have to investigate both if available. For e.g., in powerpc, this may happen: $ gcc -g bin.c -o bin $ objdump --dwarf ./bin <1><145>: Abbrev Number: 7 (DW_TAG_subprogram) <146> DW_AT_external : 1 <146> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x9e): main <14a> DW_AT_decl_file : 1 <14b> DW_AT_decl_line : 39 <14c> DW_AT_prototyped : 1 <14c> DW_AT_type : <0x57> <150> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x100007b8 If the .eh_frame and .debug_frame are checked for the same binary, we will find that, .eh_frame (although present) doesn't contain a description for "main" function. But, .debug_frame has a description: 000000d8 00000024 00000000 FDE cie=00000000 pc=100007b8..10000838 DW_CFA_advance_loc: 16 to 100007c8 DW_CFA_def_cfa_offset: 144 DW_CFA_offset_extended_sf: r65 at cfa+16 ... Due to this (since, perf checks whether .eh_frame is present and goes on searching for that address inside that frame), perf is unable to process the probes: # perf probe -x ./bin main Failed to get call frame on 0x100007b8 Error: Failed to add events. To avoid this issue, we need to check both the sections (.eh_frame and .debug_frame), which is done in this patch. Note that, we can always force everything into both .eh_frame and .debug_frame by: $ gcc bin.c -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -fno-dwarf2-cfi-asm -g -o bin Signed-off-by: Hemant Kumar <hemant@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org Cc: Mark Wielaard <mjw@redhat.com> Cc: Naveen N.

Fix by checking before using. Committer note: This doesn't take place in a kernel that supports perf_event_attr.context_switch, that is the default way that will be used for tracking context switches, only in older kernels, like 4.2, in a machine with Intel PT (e.g. Broadwell) for non-priviledged users. Further info from a similar patch by Wang: The error is in tracepoint_error: it assumes the 'e' parameter is valid. However, there are many situation a parse_event() can be called without parse_events_error.

But the resort path needs to know the total period before doing its job because it's used for calculating percent limit of callchains in hist entries. So this patch update the total period during the addition path. It makes the percent limit of callchains working (again).

| * | | perf kvm/powerpc: Port perf kvm stat to powerpcHemant Kumar2016-01-291-0/+1

This support already exists in x86. Hence, porting it to powerpc. - To trace KVM events : perf kvm stat record If many guests are running, we can track for a specific guest by using --pid as in : perf kvm stat record --pid <pid> - To see the results : perf kvm stat report The result shows the number of exits (from the guest context to host/hypervisor context) grouped by their respective exit reasons with their frequency. Since, different powerpc machines have different KVM tracepoints, this patch discovers the available tracepoints dynamically and accordingly looks for them. If any single tracepoint is not present, this support won't be enabled for reporting. To record, this will fail if any of the events we are looking to record isn't available. Right now, its only supported on PowerPC Book3S_HV architectures. To analyze the different exits, group them and present them (in a slight descriptive way) to the user, we need a mapping between the "exit code" (dumped in the kvm_guest_exit tracepoint data) and to its related Interrupt vector description (exit reason). This patch adds this mapping in book3s_hv_exits.h. It records on two available KVM tracepoints for book3s_hv: "kvm_hv:kvm_guest_exit" and "kvm_hv:kvm_guest_enter".
