When removing duplicate symbols, prefer to remove syscall aliases starting with SyS or compat_SyS. A side-effect of that is that it results in slightly improved results for the "vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms" test.

When interval mode is outputting to a pipe, each measurement should be flushed individually, so that the reader sees it timely.

由 Andi Kleen 提交于
When measuring workloads the startup phase -- doing page faults, dynamic linking, opening files -- is often very different from the rest of the workload. Especially with smaller kernels and using counter multiplexing this can give significant measurement errors. Multiplexing assumes that the workload is mostly the same over longer periods. But at startup there is typically some spike of activity which is relatively short. If many groups are multiplexing the one group seeing the spike, and which is then scaled up over the time to run all groups, may see a significant error. Also in general it's often not useful to measure the startup, because it is so different from the rest. One way around this is to use interval mode and discard the first sample, but this can be awkward because interval mode doesn't support intervals of less than 100ms, and also a useful interval is not necessarily the same as a useful startup delay. This patch adds a new --initial-delay / -D option to skip measuring for the startup phase. The time can be specified in ms Here's a simple example: perf stat -e page-faults bash -c 'for i in $(seq 100000) ; do true ; done' ... 3,721 page-faults ... If we just wait 20 ms the number of page faults is 1/3 less: perf stat -D 20 -e page-faults bash -c 'for i in $(seq 100000) ; do true ; done' ... 2,823 page-faults ... So we filtered out most of the startup noise from bash.

Adding 'S' event/group modifier to specify that the event value/s are read by PERF_SAMPLE_READ sample type processing, instead of the period value offered by lower layers. There's additional behaviour change for 'S' modifier being specified on event group: Currently all the events within a group makes samples. If user now specifies 'S' within group modifier, only the leader will trigger samples. The rest of events in the group will have sampling disabled. And same as for single events, values of all events within the group (including leader) are read by PERF_SAMPLE_READ sample type processing. Following example will create event group with cycles and cache-misses events, setting the cycles as group leader and the only event to actually sample. Both cycles and cache-misses event period values are read by PERF_SAMPLE_READ sample type processing with PERF_FORMAT_GROUP read format. Example: $ perf record -e '{cycles,cache-misses}:S' ls ... $ perf report --group --show-total-period --stdio ... # Samples: 36 of event 'anon group { cycles, cache-misses }' # Event count (approx.): 12585593 # # Overhead Period Command Shared Object Symbol # .............. .............. ....... ................. .......................... # 19.92% 1.20% 2505936 31 ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] mark_held_locks 13.74% 0.47% 1729327 12 ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sched_clock_local 13.64% 23.72% 1716147 612 ls ld-2.14.90.so [.] check_match.10805 13.12% 23.22% 1650778 599 ls libc-2.14.90.so [.] _nl_intern_locale_data 11.24% 29.19% 1414554 753 ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sched_clock_cpu 8.50% 0.35% 1070150 9 ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] check_chain_key ...

A perf event can be used without forcing the tick to stay alive if it doesn't use a frequency but a sample period and if it doesn't throttle (raise storm of events). Since the lockup detector neither use a perf event frequency nor should ever throttle due to its high period, it can now run concurrently with the full dynticks feature.

Currently the full dynticks subsystem keep the tick alive as long as there are perf events running. This prevents the tick from being stopped as long as features such that the lockup detectors are running. As a temporary fix, the lockup detector is disabled by default when full dynticks is built but this is not a long term viable solution. To fix this, only keep the tick alive when an event configured with a frequency rather than a period is running on the CPU, or when an event throttles on the CPU. These are the only purposes of the perf tick, especially now that the rotation of flexible events is handled from a seperate hrtimer. The tick can be shutdown the rest of the time.

In case of allocation failure, get_callchain_buffer() keeps the refcount incremented for the current event. As a result, when get_callchain_buffers() returns an error, we must cleanup what it did by cancelling its last refcount with a call to put_callchain_buffers(). This is a hack in order to be able to call free_event() after that failure. The original purpose of that was to simplify the failure path. But this error handling is actually counter intuitive, ugly and not very easy to follow because one expect to see the resources used to perform a service to be cleaned by the callee if case of failure, not by the caller. So lets clean this up by cancelling the refcount from get_callchain_buffer() in case of failure. And correctly free the event accordingly in perf_event_alloc().

On callchain buffers allocation failure, free_event() is called and all the accounting performed in perf_event_alloc() for that event is cancelled. But if the event has branch stack sampling, it is unaccounted as well from the branch stack sampling events refcounts. This is a bug because this accounting is performed after the callchain buffer allocation. As a result, the branch stack sampling events refcount can become negative. To fix this, move the branch stack event accounting before the callchain buffer allocation.

Smart wake-affine is using node-size as the factor currently, but the overhead of the mask operation is high. Thus, this patch introduce the 'sd_llc_size' percpu variable, which will record the highest cache-share domain size, and make it to be the new factor, in order to reduce the overhead and make it more reasonable.

The wake-affine scheduler feature is currently always trying to pull the wakee close to the waker. In theory this should be beneficial if the waker's CPU caches hot data for the wakee, and it's also beneficial in the extreme ping-pong high context switch rate case. Testing shows it can benefit hackbench up to 15%. However, the feature is somewhat blind, from which some workloads such as pgbench suffer. It's also time-consuming algorithmically. Testing shows it can damage pgbench up to 50% - far more than the benefit it brings in the best case. So wake-affine should be smarter and it should realize when to stop its thankless effort at trying to find a suitable CPU to wake on. This patch introduces 'wakee_flips', which will be increased each time the task flips (switches) its wakee target. So a high 'wakee_flips' value means the task has more than one wakee, and the bigger the number, the higher the wakeup frequency. Now when making the decision on whether to pull or not, pay attention to the wakee with a high 'wakee_flips', pulling such a task may benefit the wakee. Also imply that the waker will face cruel competition later, it could be very cruel or very fast depends on the story behind 'wakee_flips', waker therefore suffers. Furthermore, if waker also has a high 'wakee_flips', that implies that multiple tasks rely on it, then waker's higher latency will damage all of them, so pulling wakee seems to be a bad deal. Thus, when 'waker->wakee_flips / wakee->wakee_flips' becomes higher and higher, the cost of pulling seems to be worse and worse. The patch therefore helps the wake-affine feature to stop its pulling work when: wakee->wakee_flips > factor && waker->wakee_flips > (factor * wakee->wakee_flips) The 'factor' here is the number of CPUs in the current CPU's NUMA node, so a bigger node will lead to more pulling since the trial becomes more severe. After applying the patch, pgbench shows up to 40% improvements and no regressions. Tested with 12 cpu x86 server and tip 3.10.0-rc7.

The bad thing about update_h_load(), which computes hierarchical load factor for task groups, is that it is called for each task group in the system before every load balancer run, and since rebalance can be triggered very often, this function can eat really a lot of cpu time if there are many cpu cgroups in the system. Although the situation was improved significantly by commit a35b6466 ('sched, cgroup: Reduce rq->lock hold times for large cgroup hierarchies'), the problem still can arise under some kinds of loads, e.g. when cpus are switching from idle to busy and back very frequently. For instance, when I start 1000 of processes that wake up every millisecond on my 8 cpus host, 'top' and 'perf top' show: Cpu(s): 17.8%us, 24.3%sy, 0.0%ni, 57.9%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.0%si Events: 243K cycles 7.57% [kernel] [k] __schedule 7.08% [kernel] [k] timerqueue_add 6.13% libc-2.12.so [.] usleep Then if I create 10000 *idle* cpu cgroups (no processes in them), cpu usage increases significantly although the 'wakers' are still executing in the root cpu cgroup: Cpu(s): 19.1%us, 48.7%sy, 0.0%ni, 31.6%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.7%si Events: 230K cycles 24.56% [kernel] [k] tg_load_down 5.76% [kernel] [k] __schedule This happens because this particular kind of load triggers 'new idle' rebalance very frequently, which requires calling update_h_load(), which, in turn, calls tg_load_down() for every *idle* cpu cgroup even though it is absolutely useless, because idle cpu cgroups have no tasks to pull. This patch tries to improve the situation by making h_load calculation proceed only when h_load is really necessary. To achieve this, it substitutes update_h_load() with update_cfs_rq_h_load(), which computes h_load only for a given cfs_rq and all its ascendants, and makes the load balancer call this function whenever it considers if a task should be pulled, i.e. it moves h_load calculations directly to task_h_load(). For h_load of the same cfs_rq not to be updated multiple times (in case several tasks in the same cgroup are considered during the same balance run), the patch keeps the time of the last h_load update for each cfs_rq and breaks calculation when it finds h_load to be uptodate. The benefit of it is that h_load is computed only for those cfs_rq's, which really need it, in particular all idle task groups are skipped. Although this, in fact, moves h_load calculation under rq lock, it should not affect latency much, because the amount of work done under rq lock while trying to pull tasks is limited by sched_nr_migrate. After the patch applied with the setup described above (1000 wakers in the root cgroup and 10000 idle cgroups), I get: Cpu(s): 16.9%us, 24.8%sy, 0.0%ni, 58.4%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.0%si Events: 242K cycles 7.57% [kernel] [k] __schedule 6.70% [kernel] [k] timerqueue_add 5.93% libc-2.12.so [.] usleep Signed-off-by: NVladimir Davydov <vdavydov@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: NPeter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1373896159-1278-1-git-send-email-vdavydov@parallels.comSigned-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

For modern CPUs, perf clock is directly related to TSC. TSC can be calculated from perf clock and vice versa using a simple calculation. Two of the three componenets of that calculation are already exported in struct perf_event_mmap_page. This patch exports the third.

In fd4363ff ("x86: Introduce int3 (breakpoint)-based instruction patching"), the mechanism that was introduced for notifying alternatives code from int3 exception handler that and exception occured was die_notifier. This is however problematic, as early code might be using jump labels even before the notifier registration has been performed, which will then lead to an oops due to unhandled exception.
