      perf stat: Add no-aggregation mode to -a · f5b4a9c3
      Stephane Eranian 提交于
      This patch adds a new -A option to perf stat. If specified then perf stat does
      not aggregate counts across all monitored CPUs in system-wide mode, i.e., when
      using -a. This option is not supported in per-thread mode.
      
      Being able to get a per-cpu breakdown is useful to detect imbalances between
      CPUs when running a uniform workload than spans all monitored CPUs.
      
      The second version corrects the missing cpumap[] support, so that it works when
      the -C option is used.
      
      The third version fixes a missing cpumap[] in print_counter() and removes a
      stray patch in builtin-trace.c.
      
      Examples on a 4-way system:
      
      # perf stat -a   -e cycles,instructions -- sleep 1
       Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
               9592808135  cycles

      perf probe: Add basic module support · 469b9b88
      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      Add basic module probe support on perf probe. This introduces "--module
      <MODNAME>" option to perf probe for putting probes and showing lines and
      variables in the given module.
      
      Currently, this supports only probing on running modules.  Supporting off-line
      module probing is the next step.
      
      e.g.)
      [show lines]
       # ./perf probe --module drm -L drm_vblank_info
      <drm_vblank_info:0>
            0  int drm_vblank_info(struct seq_file *m, void *data)
            1  {
                      struct drm_info_node *node = (struct drm_info_node *) m->private
            3         struct drm_device *dev = node->minor->dev;
       ...
      [show vars]
       # ./perf probe --module drm -V drm_vblank_info:3
      Available variables at drm_vblank_info:3
              @<drm_vblank_info+20>
                      (unknown_type)  data
                      struct drm_info_node*   node
                      struct seq_file*        m
      [put a probe]
       # ./perf probe --module drm drm_vblank_info:3 node m
      Add new event:
        probe:drm_vblank_info (on drm_vblank_info:3 with node m)
      
      You can now use it on all perf tools, such as:
      
              perf record -e probe:drm_vblank_info -aR sleep 1
      [list probes]
       # ./perf probe -l

      Support string type casting to event argument. If perf-probe finds an argument
      casted as string, it ensures the target variable is "(unsigned/signed) char
      *(or []). perf-probe also adds dereference if the target is a pointer.
      
      So, both of 'char buf[10];' and 'char *buf;' can be accessed by 'buf:string'

      perf probe: Add kernel source path option · 9ed7e1b8
      Chase Douglas 提交于
      The probe plugin requires access to the source code for some operations.  The
      source code must be in the exact same location as specified by the DWARF tags,
      but sometimes the location is an absolute path that cannot be replicated by a
      normal user. This change adds the -s|--source option to allow the user to
      specify the root of the kernel source tree.

      perf record: Add option to avoid updating buildid cache · a1ac1d3c
      Stephane Eranian 提交于
      There are situations where there is enough information in the perf.data
      to process the samples. Updating the buildid cache may add unecessary
      overhead in terms of disk space and time (copying large elf images).
      
      A persistent option to do this already exists via the perfconfig file,
      simply do:
      
      [buildid]
      dir = /dev/null
      
      This patch provides a way to suppress builid cache updates on a per-run
      basis.  It addds a new option, -N, to perf record. Buildids are still
      generated in the perf.data file.

      perf tools: Add the ability to specify list of cpus to monitor · c45c6ea2
      Stephane Eranian 提交于
      This patch adds a -C option to stat, record, top to designate a list of CPUs to
      monitor. CPUs can be specified as a comma-separated list or ranges, no space
      allowed.
      
      Examples:
      $ perf record -a -C0-1,4-7 sleep 1
      $ perf top -C0-4
      $ perf stat -a -C1,2,3,4 sleep 1
      
      With perf record in per-thread mode with inherit mode on, samples are collected
      only when the thread runs on the designated CPUs.
      
      The -C option does not turn on system-wide mode automatically.

      perf stat: add perf stat -B to pretty print large numbers · 5af52b51
      Stephane Eranian 提交于
      It is hard to read very large numbers so provide an option to perf stat
      to separate thousands using a separator. The patch leverages the locale
      support of stdio. You need to set your LC_NUMERIC appropriately, for
      instance LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF8. You need to pass -B to activate this
      feature. This way existing scripts parsing the output do not need to be
      changed. Here is an example.

      perf test: Initial regression testing command · 1c6a800c
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      First an example with the first internal test:
      
      [acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ perf test
       1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms: Ok
      
      So it run just one test, that is "vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms", and it was
      successful.
      
      If we run it in verbose mode, we'll see details about errors and extra warnings
      for non-fatal problems:
      
      [acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ perf test -v
       1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms:
      --- start ---
      Looking at the vmlinux_path (5 entries long)
      No build_id in vmlinux, ignoring it
      No build_id in /boot/vmlinux, ignoring it
      No build_id in /boot/vmlinux-2.6.34-rc4-tip+, ignoring it
      Using /lib/modules/2.6.34-rc4-tip+/build/vmlinux for symbols
      Maps only in vmlinux:
       ffffffff81cb81b1-ffffffff81e1149b 0 [kernel].init.text
       ffffffff81e1149c-ffffffff9fffffff 0 [kernel].exit.text
       ffffffffff600000-ffffffffff6000ff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_0
       ffffffffff600100-ffffffffff6003ff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_fn
       ffffffffff600400-ffffffffff6007ff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_1
       ffffffffff600800-ffffffffffffffff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_2
      Maps in vmlinux with a different name in kallsyms:
       ffffffffff600000-ffffffffff6000ff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_0 in kallsyms as [kernel].0
       ffffffffff600100-ffffffffff6003ff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_fn in kallsyms as:
      *ffffffffff600100-ffffffffff60012f 0 [kernel].2
       ffffffffff600400-ffffffffff6007ff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_1 in kallsyms as [kernel].6
       ffffffffff600800-ffffffffffffffff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_2 in kallsyms as [kernel].8
      Maps only in kallsyms:
       ffffffffff600130-ffffffffff6003ff 0 [kernel].4
      ---- end ----
      vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms: Ok
      [acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$
      
      In the above case we only know the name of the non contiguous kernel ranges in
      the address space when reading the symbol information from the ELF symtab in
      vmlinux.
      
      The /proc/kallsyms file lack this, we only notice they are separate because
      there are modules after the kernel and after that more kernel functions, so we
      need to have a module rbtree backed by the module .ko path to get symtabs in
      the vmlinux case.
      
      The tool uses it to match by address to emit appropriate warning, but don't
      considers this fatal.
      
      The .init.text and .exit.text ines, of course, aren't in kallsyms, so I left
      these cases just as extra info in verbose mode.
      
      The end of the sections also aren't in kallsyms, so we the symbols layer does
      another pass and sets the end addresses as the next map start minus one, which
      sometimes pads, causing harmless mismatches.
      
      But at least the symbols match, tested it by copying /proc/kallsyms to
      /tmp/kallsyms and doing changes to see if they were detected.
      
      This first test also should serve as a first stab at documenting the
      symbol library by providing a self contained example that exercises it
      together with comments about what is being done.
      
      More tests to check if actions done on a monitored app, like doing mmaps, etc,
      makes the kernel generate the expected events should be added next.

      perf: Always record tracepoints raw samples from perf record · bdef3b02
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Trace events are mostly used for tracing rather than simple
      counting. Don't bother anymore with adding -R when using them,
      just record raw samples of trace events every time.

      perf: Make -f the default for perf record · 7865e817
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Force the overwriting mode by default if append mode is not explicit.
      Adding -f every time one uses perf on a daily basis quickly becomes a
      burden.
      
      Keep the -f among the options though to avoid breaking some random
      users scripts.

      perf probe: Support basic type casting · 11a1ca35
      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      Add basic type casting for arguments to perf probe. This allows
      users to specify the actual type of arguments. Of course, if
      user sets invalid types, kprobe-tracer rejects that.

      perf probe: Use the last field name as the argument name · df0faf4b
      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      Set the last field name to the argument name when the argument
      is refering a data-structure member.
      
      e.g.
       ./perf probe --add 'vfs_read file->f_mode'
       Add new event:
         probe:vfs_read       (on vfs_read with f_mode=file->f_mode)
      
       This probe records file->f_mode, but the argument name becomes "f_mode".
      
      This enables perf-trace command to parse trace event format correctly.

      perf probe: Support argument name · 48481938
      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      Set given names to event arguments. The syntax is same as kprobe-tracer,
      you can add 'NAME=' right before each argument.
      
      e.g.
        ./perf probe vfs_read foo=file
      
       then, 'foo' is set to the argument name as below.
      
        ./perf probe -l
        probe:vfs_read       (on vfs_read@linux-2.6-tip/fs/read_write.c with foo)
