      perf tools: Support setting different slots in a BPF map separately · 2d055bf2
      Wang Nan 提交于
      This patch introduces basic facilities to support config different slots
      in a BPF map one by one.
      
      array.nr_ranges and array.ranges are introduced into 'struct
      parse_events_term', where ranges is an array of indices range (start,
      length) which will be configured by this config term. nr_ranges is the
      size of the array. The array is passed to 'struct bpf_map_priv'.  To
      indicate the new type of configuration, BPF_MAP_KEY_RANGES is added as a
      new key type. bpf_map_config_foreach_key() is extended to iterate over
      those indices instead of all possible keys.
      
      Code in this commit will be enabled by following commit which enables
      the indices syntax for array configuration.

      perf tools: Enable passing event to BPF object · 7630b3e2
      Wang Nan 提交于
      A new syntax is added to the parser so that the user can access
      predefined perf events in BPF objects.
      
      After this patch, BPF programs for perf are finally able to utilize
      bpf_perf_event_read() introduced in commit 35578d79 ("bpf: Implement
      function bpf_perf_event_read() that get the selected hardware PMU
      counter").

      perf tools: Enable config and setting names for legacy cache events · 43d0b978
      Wang Nan 提交于
      This patch allows setting config terms for legacy cache events.
      For example:
      
        # perf stat -e L1-icache-misses/name=valA/ -e branches/name=valB/ ls
        ...
         Performance counter stats for 'ls':
      
                    11299      valA
                   451605      valB
      
              0.000779091 seconds time elapsed
      
        # perf record -e cache-misses/name=inh/ -e cache-misses/name=noinh,no-inherit/ bash
        # ls
        # exit
        [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.023 MB perf.data (131 samples) ]
        # perf report --stdio | grep -B 1 'Event count'
        # Samples: 105  of event 'inh'
        # Event count (approx.): 109118
        --
        # Samples: 26  of event 'noinh'
        # Event count (approx.): 48302
      
      A test case is introduced to test this feature.

      perf stat: Bail out on unsupported event config modifiers · 1669e509
      Wang Nan 提交于
      'perf stat' accepts some config terms but doesn't apply them. For
      example:
      
        # perf stat -e 'instructions/no-inherit/' -e 'instructions/inherit/' bash
        # ls
        # exit
      
        Performance counter stats for 'bash':
      
               266258061      instructions/no-inherit/
               266258061      instructions/inherit/
      
             1.402183915 seconds time elapsed
      
      The result is confusing, because user may expect the first
      'instructions' event exclude the 'ls' command.
      
      This patch forbid most of these config terms for 'perf stat'.
      
      Result:
      
        # ./perf stat -e 'instructions/no-inherit/' -e 'instructions/inherit/' bash
        event syntax error: 'instructions/no-inherit/'
                             \___ 'no-inherit' is not usable in 'perf stat'
        ...
      
      We can add blocked config terms back when 'perf stat' really supports them.
      
      This patch also removes unavailable config term from error message:
      
        # ./perf stat -e 'instructions/badterm/' ls
        event syntax error: 'instructions/badterm/'
                                          \___ unknown term
      
        valid terms: config,config1,config2,name
      
        # ./perf stat -e 'cpu/badterm/' ls
        event syntax error: 'cpu/badterm/'
                                 \___ unknown term
      
        valid terms: pc,any,inv,edge,cmask,event,in_tx,ldlat,umask,in_tx_cp,offcore_rsp,config,config1,config2,name

      Wang Nan 提交于
      config_term_names[] is introduced for future commits which will be able
      to retrieve the config name through the config term.
      
      Utilize this array in parse_events_formats_error_string() so the missing
      '{,no-}inherit' terms are added.

      perf tools: Compile scriptlets to BPF objects when passing '.c' to --event · d509db04
      Wang Nan 提交于
      This patch provides infrastructure for passing source files to --event
      directly using:
      
       # perf record --event bpf-file.c command
      
      This patch does following works:
      
       1) Allow passing '.c' file to '--event'. parse_events_load_bpf() is
          expanded to allow caller tell it whether the passed file is source
          file or object.
      
       2) llvm__compile_bpf() is called to compile the '.c' file, the result
          is saved into memory. Use bpf_object__open_buffer() to load the
          in-memory object.
      
      Introduces a bpf-script-example.c so we can manually test it:
      
       # perf record --clang-opt "-DLINUX_VERSION_CODE=0x40200" --event ./bpf-script-example.c sleep 1
      
      Note that '--clang-opt' must put before '--event'.
      
      Futher patches will merge it into a testcase so can be tested automatically.

      perf tools: Enable passing bpf object file to --event · 84c86ca1
      Wang Nan 提交于
      By introducing new rules in tools/perf/util/parse-events.[ly], this
      patch enables 'perf record --event bpf_file.o' to select events by an
      eBPF object file. It calls parse_events_load_bpf() to load that file,
      which uses bpf__prepare_load() and finally calls bpf_object__open() for
      the object files.
      
      After applying this patch, commands like:
      
       # perf record --event foo.o sleep
      
      become possible.
      
      However, at this point it is unable to link any useful things onto the
      evsel list because the creating of probe points and BPF program
      attaching have not been implemented.  Before real events are possible to
      be extracted, to avoid perf report error because of empty evsel list,
      this patch link a dummy evsel. The dummy event related code will be
      removed when probing and extracting code is ready.

      perf tools: Enable pre-event inherit setting by config terms · 374ce938
      Wang Nan 提交于
      This patch allows perf record setting event's attr.inherit bit by
      config terms like:
      
        # perf record -e cycles/no-inherit/ ...
        # perf record -e cycles/inherit/ ...
      
      So user can control inherit bit for each event separately.
      
      In following example, a.out fork()s in main then do some complex
      CPU intensive computations in both of its children.
      
      Basic result with and without inherit:
      
        # perf record -e cycles -e instructions ./a.out
        [ perf record: Woken up 9 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.205 MB perf.data (47920 samples) ]
        # perf report --stdio
        # ...
        # Samples: 23K of event 'cycles'
        # Event count (approx.): 23641752891
        ...
        # Samples: 24K of event 'instructions'
        # Event count (approx.): 30428312415
      
        # perf record -i -e cycles -e instructions ./a.out
        [ perf record: Woken up 5 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.111 MB perf.data (24019 samples) ]
        ...
        # Samples: 12K of event 'cycles'
        # Event count (approx.): 11699501775
        ...
        # Samples: 12K of event 'instructions'
        # Event count (approx.): 15058023559
      
      Cancel inherit for one event when globally enable:
      
        # perf record -e cycles/no-inherit/ -e instructions ./a.out
        [ perf record: Woken up 7 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.660 MB perf.data (36004 samples) ]
        ...
        # Samples: 12K of event 'cycles/no-inherit/'
        # Event count (approx.): 11895759282
       ...
        # Samples: 24K of event 'instructions'
        # Event count (approx.): 30668000441
      
      Enable inherit for one event when globally disable:
      
        # perf record -i -e cycles/inherit/ -e instructions ./a.out
        [ perf record: Woken up 7 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.654 MB perf.data (35868 samples) ]
        ...
        # Samples: 23K of event 'cycles/inherit/'
        # Event count (approx.): 23285400229
        ...
        # Samples: 11K of event 'instructions'
        # Event count (approx.): 14969050259
      
      Committer note:
      
      One can check if the bit was set, in addition to seeing the result in
      the perf.data file size as above by doing one of:
      
        # perf record -e cycles -e instructions -a usleep 1
        [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.911 MB perf.data (63 samples) ]
        # perf evlist -v
        cycles: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
        instructions: size: 112, config: 0x1, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, freq: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1
        #
      
      So, the inherit bit was set in both, now, if we disable it globally using
      --no-inherit:
      
        # perf record --no-inherit -e cycles -e instructions -a usleep 1
        [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.910 MB perf.data (56 samples) ]
        # perf evlist -v
        cycles: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
        instructions: size: 112, config: 0x1, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, freq: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1
      
      No inherit bit set, then disabling it and setting just on the cycles event:
      
        # perf record --no-inherit -e cycles/inherit/ -e instructions -a usleep 1
        [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.909 MB perf.data (48 samples) ]
        # perf evlist -v
        cycles/inherit/: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
        instructions: size: 112, config: 0x1, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, freq: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1
        #
      
      We can see it as well in by using a more verbose level of debug messages in
      the tool that sets up the perf_event_attr, 'perf record' in this case:
      
        [root@zoo ~]# perf record -vv --no-inherit -e cycles/inherit/ -e instructions -a usleep 1

      perf tools: Enable event_config terms to tracepoint events · e637d177
      He Kuang 提交于
      This patch enables config terms for tracepoint perf events. Valid terms
      for tracepoint events are 'call-graph' and 'stack-size', so we can use
      different callgraph settings for each event and eliminate unnecessary
      overhead.
      
      Here is an example for using different call-graph config for each
      tracepoint.
      
        $ perf record -e syscalls:sys_enter_write/call-graph=fp/
                      -e syscalls:sys_exit_write/call-graph=no/
                      dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=4k count=10

      perf tools: Show proper error message for wrong terms of hw/sw events · ffeb883e
      He Kuang 提交于
      Show proper error message and show valid terms when wrong config terms
      is specified for hw/sw type perf events.
      
      This patch makes the original error format function formats_error_string()
      more generic, which only outputs the static config terms for hw/sw perf
      events, and prepends pmu formats for pmu events.
      
      Before this patch:
      
        $ perf record -e 'cpu-clock/freqx=200/' -a sleep 1
        invalid or unsupported event: 'cpu-clock/freqx=200/'
        Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
      
         usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
            or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
      
            -e, --event <event>   event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
      
      After this patch:
      
        $ perf record -e 'cpu-clock/freqx=200/' -a sleep 1
        event syntax error: 'cpu-clock/freqx=200/'
                                       \___ unknown term
      
        valid terms: config,config1,config2,name,period,freq,branch_type,time,call-graph,stack-size
      
        Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
      
         usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
            or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
      
            -e, --event <event>   event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events

      perf callchain: Per-event type selection support · d457c963
      Kan Liang 提交于
      This patchkit adds the ability to set callgraph mode (fp, dwarf, lbr) per
      event. This in term can reduce sampling overhead and the size of the
      perf.data.
      
      Here is an example.
      
        perf record -e 'cpu/cpu-cycles,period=1000,call-graph=fp,time=1/,cpu/instructions,call-graph=lbr/' sleep 1

       cpu/cpu-cycles,period=1000,call-graph=fp,time=1/: type: 4, size: 112,
       config: 0x3c, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 1000, sample_type:
       IP|TID|TIME|CALLCHAIN|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, read_format: ID, disabled: 1,

       cpu/instructions,call-graph=lbr/: type: 4, size: 112, config: 0xc0, {
       sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type:

      perf record: Allow filtering perf's pid via --exclude-perf · 4ba1faa1
      Wang Nan 提交于
      This patch allows 'perf record' to exclude events issued by perf itself
      by '--exclude-perf' option.
      
      Before this patch, when doing something like:
      
       # perf record -a -e syscalls:sys_enter_write <cmd>
      
      One could easily get result like this:
      
       # /tmp/perf report --stdio
       ...
        # Overhead  Command  Shared Object       Symbol
        # ........  .......  ..................  ....................
        #
            99.99%  perf     libpthread-2.18.so  [.] __write_nocancel
            0.01%   ls       libc-2.18.so        [.] write
            0.01%   sshd     libc-2.18.so        [.] write
       ...
      
      Where most events are generated by perf itself.
      
      A shell trick can be done to filter perf itself out:
      
       # cat << EOF > ./tmp
       > #!/bin/sh
       > exec perf record -e ... --filter="common_pid != \$\$" -a sleep 10
       > EOF
       # chmod a+x ./tmp
       # ./tmp
      
      However, doing so is user unfriendly.
      
      This patch extracts evsel iteration framework introduced by patch 'perf
      record: Apply filter to all events in a glob matching' into
      foreach_evsel_in_last_glob(), and makes exclude_perf() function append
      new filter expression to each evsel selected by a '-e' selector.
      
      To avoid losing filters if user pass '--filter' after '--exclude-perf',
      this patch uses perf_evsel__append_filter() in both case, instead of
      perf_evsel__set_filter() which removes old filter. As a side effect, now
      it is possible to use multiple '--filter' option for one selector. They
      are combinded with '&&'.

      perf: Make perf build for x86 with UAPI disintegration applied · d2709c7c
      David Howells 提交于
      Make perf build for x86 once the UAPI disintegration patches for that arch
      have been applied by adding the appropriate -I flags - in the right order -
      and then converting some #includes that use ../.. notation to find main kernel
      headerfiles to use <asm/foo.h> and <linux/foo.h> instead.
      
      Note that -Iarch/foo/include/uapi is present _before_ -Iarch/foo/include.
      This makes sure we get the userspace version of the pt_regs struct.  Ideally,
      we wouldn't have the latter -I flag at all, but unfortunately we want
      asm/svm.h and asm/vmx.h in builtin-kvm.c and these aren't part of the UAPI -
      at least not for x86.  I wonder if the bits outside of the __KERNEL__ guards
      *should* be transferred there.
      
      I note also that perf seems to do its dependency handling manually by listing
      all the header files it might want to use in LIB_H in the Makefile.  Can this
      be changed to use -MD?
      
      Note that to do make this work, we need to export and UAPI disintegrate
      linux/hw_breakpoint.h, which I think should've been exported previously so that
      perf can access the bits.  We have to do this in the same patch to maintain
      bisectability.
