This is equivalent to the 'perf trace summary' subcomand in the tmp.perf/trace2
branch.

Another example, setting a huge duration filter to get just a system
wide summary:

[root@sandy ~]# perf trace --duration 10000.0 --sched

      perf tools: Try to build Documentation when installing · af3df2cf
      由 Borislav Petkov 提交于 
      There's a portion in the "perf list" output refering to the exact
specification of raw hardware events.

Since this description is in the perf-list manpage, try to build and
install the man pages, warning the user when that is not possible
due to missing packages (xmlto and asciidoc).

      perf trace: New tool · 514f1c67
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      Initially should look loosely like the venerable 'strace' tool, but
using the infrastructure in the perf tools to allow tracing extra
targets:

  [acme@sandy linux]$ perf trace --hell
  Error: unknown option `hell'

   usage: perf trace <PID>

      -p, --pid <pid>       trace events on existing process id
          --tid <tid>       trace events on existing thread id
          --all-cpus        system-wide collection from all CPUs
          --cpu <cpu>       list of cpus to monitor
          --no-inherit      child tasks do not inherit counters
          --mmap-pages <n>  number of mmap data pages
          --uid <user>      user to profile

  [acme@sandy linux]$

Those should have the same semantics as when using with 'perf record'.

It gets stuck sometimes, but hey, it works sometimes too!

In time it should support perf.data based workloads, i.e. it should have
a:
	-o filename

Command line option that will produce a perf.data file that can then be
used with 'perf trace' or any of the other perf tools (script, report,
etc).

It will also eventually have the set of functionalities described in the
previous 'trace' prototype by Thomas Gleixner:

   "Announcing a new utility: 'trace'"
   http://lwn.net/Articles/415728/

Also planned is to have some of the features suggested in the comments
of that LWN article.

      perf kvm: Events analysis tool · bcf6edcd
      由 Xiao Guangrong 提交于 
      Add 'perf kvm stat' support to analyze kvm vmexit/mmio/ioport smartly

Usage:
- kvm stat
  run a command and gather performance counter statistics, it is the alias of
  perf stat

- trace kvm events:
  perf kvm stat record, or, if other tracepoints are interesting as well, we
  can append the events like this:
  perf kvm stat record -e timer:* -a

  If many guests are running, we can track the specified guest by using -p or
  --pid, -a is used to track events generated by all guests.

- show the result:
  perf kvm stat report

The output example is following:
13005
13059

total 2 guests are running on the host

Then, track the guest whose pid is 13059:
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.253 MB perf.data.guest (~11065 samples) ]

      perf diff: Make diff command work with evsel hists · 863e451f
      由 Jiri Olsa 提交于 
      Putting 'perf diff' command back on track with the 'latest'
evsel hists changes. Each evsel has its own 'hists' object
gathering stats for the particular event.

While currently counts are accumulated for the whole session
regardless of the events diversification within compared
sessions.

The 'perf diff' command now outputs all matching events within
compared sessions (with event name specified). The per event
diff output stays the same.

  $ ./perf diff
  # Event 'cycles'
  #
  # Baseline  Delta          Shared Object                          Symbol
  # ........ ..........  .................  ..............................

be used as a target.

perf probe /bin/zsh zfree is equivalent to perf probe -x /bin/zsh zfree.

      perf report: Add a simple GTK2-based 'perf report' browser · c31a9457
      由 Pekka Enberg 提交于 
      This patch adds a simple GTK2-based browser to 'perf report' that's
based on the TTY-based browser in builtin-report.c.

To launch "perf report" using the new GTK interface just type:

  $ perf report --gtk

The interface is somewhat limited in features at the moment:

  - No callgraph support

  - No KVM guest profiling support

  - No color coding for percentages

  - No sorting from the UI

  - ..and many, many more!

That said, I think this patch a reasonable start to build future features on.

      This patch enhances perf report to auto-detect when the

      perf record: Provide default branch stack sampling mode option · a5aabdac
      由 Stephane Eranian 提交于 
      This patch chanegs the logic of the -b, --branch-stack options
of perf record.

Based on users' request, the patch provides a default filter
mode with the -b (or --branch-any) option.  With the option,
any type of taken branches is sampled.

With -j (or --branch-filter), the user can specify any
valid combination of branch types and privilege levels
if supported by the underlying hardware.

The -b (--branch any) is a shortcut for: --branch-filter any.

 $ perf record -b foo

or:

 $ perf record --branch-filter any foo

For more specific filtering:

 $ perf record --branch-filter ind_call,u foo

      perf report: Add support for taken branch sampling · b50311dc
      由 Roberto Agostino Vitillo 提交于 
      This patch adds support for taken branch sampling, i.e, the
PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK feature to perf report. In other
words, to display histograms based on taken branches rather
than executed instructions addresses.

The new option is called -b and it takes no argument. To
generate meaningful output, the perf.data must have been
obtained using perf record -b xxx ... where xxx is a branch
filter option.

The output shows symbols, modules, sorted by 'who branches
where' the most often. The percentages reported in the first
column refer to the total number of branches captured and
not the usual number of samples.

Here is a quick example.
Here branchy is simple test program which looks as follows:

void f2(void)
{}
void f3(void)
{}
void f1(unsigned long n)
{
  if (n & 1UL)
    f2();
  else
    f3();
}
int main(void)
{
  unsigned long i;

  for (i=0; i < N; i++)
   f1(i);
  return 0;
}

Here is the output captured on Nehalem, if we are
only interested in user level function calls.

$ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy

$ perf report -b --sort=symbol
    52.34%  [.] main                   [.] f1
    24.04%  [.] f1                     [.] f3
    23.60%  [.] f1                     [.] f2
     0.01%  [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn    [k] _IO_file_overflow
     0.01%  [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal  [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn
     0.01%  [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal  [k] strchrnul
     0.01%  [k] __printf               [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal
     0.01%  [k] main                   [k] __printf

About half (52%) of the call branches captured are from main()
-> f1(). The second half (24%+23%) is split in two equal shares
between f1() -> f2(), f1() ->f3(). The output is as expected
given the code.

It should be noted, that using -b in perf record does not
eliminate information in the perf.data file. Consequently, a
typical profile can also be obtained by perf report by simply
not using its -b option.

It is possible to sort on branch related columns:

   - dso_from, symbol_from
   - dso_to, symbol_to
   - mispredict

      perf record: Add support for sampling taken branch · bdfebd84
      由 Roberto Agostino Vitillo 提交于 
      This patch adds a new option to enable taken branch stack
sampling, i.e., leverage the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK feature
of perf_events.

There is a new option to active this mode: -b.
It is possible to pass a set of filters to select the type of
branches to sample.

The following filters are available:

 - any : any type of branches
 - any_call : any function call or system call
 - any_ret : any function return or system call return
 - any_ind : any indirect branch
 - u:  only when the branch target is at the user level
 - k: only when the branch target is in the kernel
 - hv: only when the branch target is in the hypervisor

Filters can be combined by passing a comma separated list
to the option:

$ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy
