      perf: Fix unexported generic perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs · 1d199b1a
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs() is exported for the overriden x86
      version, but not for the generic weak version.
      
      As a general rule, weak functions should not have their symbol
      exported in the same file they are defined.
      
      So let's export it on trace_event_perf.c as it is used by trace
      events only.
      
      This fixes:
      
      	ERROR: ".perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs" [fs/xfs/xfs.ko] undefined!
      	ERROR: ".perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs" [arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/spufs.ko] undefined!
      
      -v2: And also only build it if trace events are enabled.
      -v3: Fix changelog mistake

      perf annotate: Properly notify the user that vmlinux is missing · d06d92b7
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Before this patch we would not find a vmlinux, then try to pass
      objdump "[kernel.kallsyms]" as the filename, it would get
      confused and produce no output:
      
       [root@doppio ~]# perf annotate n_tty_write
      
       ------------------------------------------------
        Percent |      Source code & Disassembly of [kernel.kallsyms]
       ------------------------------------------------
      
      Now we check that and emit meaningful warning:
      
       [root@doppio ~]# perf annotate n_tty_write
       Can't annotate n_tty_write: No vmlinux file was found in the
       path: [0] vmlinux

       [4] /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/2.6.34-rc1-tip+/vmlinux
       [root@doppio ~]#
      
      This bug was introduced when we added automatic search for
      vmlinux, before that time the user had to specify a vmlinux
      file.
      
      v2: Print the warning just for the first symbol found when no
          symbol name is specified, otherwise it will spam the screen
          repeating the warning for each symbol.

      When forking its target, perf record can capture data from

      Cyrill Gorcunov 提交于
      This should turn on instruction counting on P4s, which was missing in
      the first version of the new PMU driver.
      
      It's inaccurate for now, we still need dependant event to tag mops
      before we can count them precisely. The result is that the number of
      instruction may be lifted up.

      Not good, the newt form for report works, but slang has to eat
      the cost of the additional callgraph lines everytime it prints a
      line, and the callgraph doesn't appear on the screen, so move
      the callgraph printing to a separate function and don't use it
      in newt.c.
      
      Newt tree widgets are being investigated to properly support
      callgraphs, but till that gets merged, lets remove this huge
      overhead and show at least the symbol overheads for a callgraph
      rich perf.data with good performance.

      perf report: Implement initial UI using newt · f9224c5c
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Newt has widespread availability and provides a rather simple
      API as can be seen by the size of this patch.
      
      The work needed to support it will benefit other frontends too.
      
      In this initial patch it just checks if the output is a tty, if
      not it falls back to the previous behaviour, also if
      newt-devel/libnewt-dev is not installed the previous behaviour
      is maintaned.
      
      Pressing enter on a symbol will annotate it, ESC in the
      annotation window will return to the report symbol list.
      
      More work will be done to remove the special casing in
      color_fprintf, stop using fmemopen/FILE in the printing of
      hist_entries, etc.
      
      Also the annotation doesn't need to be done via spawning "perf
      annotate" and then browsing its output, we can do better by
      calling directly the builtin-annotate.c functions, that would
      then be moved to tools/perf/util/annotate.c and shared with perf
      top, etc
      
      But lets go by baby steps, this patch already improves perf
      usability by allowing to quickly do annotations on symbols from
      the report screen and provides a first experimentation with
      libnewt/TUI integration of tools.
      
      Tested on RHEL5 and Fedora12 X86_64 and on Debian PARISC64 to
      browse a perf.data file collected on a Fedora12 x86_64 box.

      perf, x86: Implement initial P4 PMU driver · a072738e
      Cyrill Gorcunov 提交于
      The netburst PMU is way different from the "architectural
      perfomance monitoring" specification that current CPUs use.
      P4 uses a tuple of ESCR+CCCR+COUNTER MSR registers to handle
      perfomance monitoring events.
      
      A few implementational details:
      
      1) We need a separate x86_pmu::hw_config helper in struct
         x86_pmu since register bit-fields are quite different from P6,
         Core and later cpu series.
      
      2) For the same reason is a x86_pmu::schedule_events helper
         introduced.
      
      3) hw_perf_event::config consists of packed ESCR+CCCR values.
         It's allowed since in reality both registers only use a half
         of their size. Of course before making a real write into a
         particular MSR we need to unpack the value and extend it to
         a proper size.
      
      4) The tuple of packed ESCR+CCCR in hw_perf_event::config
         doesn't describe the memory address of ESCR MSR register
         so that we need to keep a mapping between these tuples
         used and available ESCR (various P4 events may use same
         ESCRs but not simultaneously), for this sake every active
         event has a per-cpu map of hw_perf_event::idx <--> ESCR
         addresses.
      
      5) Since hw_perf_event::idx is an offset to counter/control register
         we need to lift X86_PMC_MAX_GENERIC up, otherwise kernel
         strips it down to 8 registers and event armed may never be turned
         off (ie the bit in active_mask is set but the loop never reaches
         this index to check), thanks to Peter Zijlstra
      
      Restrictions:
      
       - No cascaded counters support (do we ever need them?)
       - No dependent events support (so PERF_COUNT_HW_INSTRUCTIONS
         doesn't work for now)
       - There are events with same counters which can't work simultaneously
         (need to use intersected ones due to broken counter 1)
       - No PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_ events yet
      
      Todo:
      
       - Implement dependent events
       - Need proper hashing for event opcodes (no linear search, good for
         debugging stage but not in real loads)
       - Some events counted during a clock cycle -- need to set threshold
         for them and count every clock cycle just to get summary statistics
         (ie to behave the same way as other PMUs do)
       - Need to swicth to use event_constraints
       - To support RAW events we need to encode a global list of P4 events
         into p4_templates
       - Cache events need to be added
      
      Event support status matrix:
      
       Event			status
       -----------------------------
       cycles			works
       cache-references	works
       cache-misses		works
       branch-misses		works
       bus-cycles		partially (does not work on 64bit cpu with HT enabled)
       instruction		doesnt work (needs dependent event [mop tagging])
       branches		doesnt work

      perf_events: Improve task_sched_in() · 9b33fa6b
      eranian@google.com 提交于
      This patch is an optimization in perf_event_task_sched_in() to avoid
      scheduling the events twice in a row.
      
      Without it, the perf_disable()/perf_enable() pair is invoked twice,
      thereby pinned events counts while scheduling flexible events and we go
      throuh hw_perf_enable() twice.
      
      By encapsulating, the whole sequence into perf_disable()/perf_enable() we
      ensure, hw_perf_enable() is going to be invoked only once because of the
      refcount protection.

      This happens because we only iterate the n_running events in the first
      pass, and reset their index to -1 if they don't match to force a
      re-assignment.
      
      Now, in our RR example, n_running == 0 because we fully unscheduled, so
      event-50 will retain its idx==32, even though in scheduling it will have
      gotten idx=0, and we don't trigger the re-assign path.
      
      The easiest way to fix this is the below patch, which simply validates
      the full assignment in the second pass.

      perf tools: Fix sparse CPU numbering related bugs · a12b51c4
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      At present, the perf subcommands that do system-wide monitoring
      (perf stat, perf record and perf top) don't work properly unless
      the online cpus are numbered 0, 1, ..., N-1.  These tools ask
      for the number of online cpus with sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN)
      and then try to create events for cpus 0, 1, ..., N-1.
      
      This creates problems for systems where the online cpus are
      numbered sparsely.  For example, a POWER6 system in
      single-threaded mode (i.e. only running 1 hardware thread per
      core) will have only even-numbered cpus online.
      
      This fixes the problem by reading the /sys/devices/system/cpu/online
      file to find out which cpus are online.  The code that does that is in
      tools/perf/util/cpumap.[ch], and consists of a read_cpu_map()
      function that sets up a cpumap[] array and returns the number of
      online cpus.  If /sys/devices/system/cpu/online can't be read or
      can't be parsed successfully, it falls back to using sysconf to
      ask how many cpus are online and sets up an identity map in cpumap[].
      
      The perf record, perf stat and perf top code then calls
      read_cpu_map() in the system-wide monitoring case (instead of
      sysconf) and uses cpumap[] to get the cpu numbers to pass to
      perf_event_open.

      perf_event: Fix oops triggered by cpu offline/online · 220b140b
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      Anton Blanchard found that he could reliably make the kernel hit a
      BUG_ON in the slab allocator by taking a cpu offline and then online
      while a system-wide perf record session was running.
      
      The reason is that when the cpu comes up, we completely reinitialize
      the ctx field of the struct perf_cpu_context for the cpu.  If there is
      a system-wide perf record session running, then there will be a struct
      perf_event that has a reference to the context, so its refcount will
      be 2.  (The perf_event has been removed from the context's group_entry
      and event_entry lists by perf_event_exit_cpu(), but that doesn't
      remove the perf_event's reference to the context and doesn't decrement
      the context's refcount.)
      
      When the cpu comes up, perf_event_init_cpu() gets called, and it calls
      __perf_event_init_context() on the cpu's context.  That resets the
      refcount to 1.  Then when the perf record session finishes and the
      perf_event is closed, the refcount gets decremented to 0 and the
      context gets kfreed after an RCU grace period.  Since the context
      wasn't kmalloced -- it's part of a per-cpu variable -- bad things
      happen.
      
      In fact we don't need to completely reinitialize the context when the
      cpu comes up.  It's sufficient to initialize the context once at boot,
      but we need to do it for all possible cpus.
      
      This moves the context initialization to happen at boot time.  With
      this, we don't trash the refcount and the context never gets kfreed,
      and we don't hit the BUG_ON.

      perf: Take a hot regs snapshot for trace events · c530665c
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      We are taking a wrong regs snapshot when a trace event triggers.
      Either we use get_irq_regs(), which gives us the interrupted
      registers if we are in an interrupt, or we use task_pt_regs()
      which gives us the state before we entered the kernel, assuming
      we are lucky enough to be no kernel thread, in which case
      task_pt_regs() returns the initial set of regs when the kernel
      thread was started.
      
      What we want is different. We need a hot snapshot of the regs,
      so that we can get the instruction pointer to record in the
      sample, the frame pointer for the callchain, and some other
      things.
      
      Let's use the new perf_fetch_caller_regs() for that.
      
      Comparison with perf record -e lock: -R -a -f -g
      Before:
      
              perf  [kernel]                   [k] __do_softirq
                     |

                         --44.84%-- __write_nocancel
      
      After:
      
                  perf  [kernel]           [k] perf_tp_event
                     |
                     --- perf_tp_event
                        |
                        |--41.07%-- lock_acquire
                        |          |
                        |          |--39.36%-- _raw_spin_lock
                        |          |          |
                        |          |          |--7.81%-- hrtimer_interrupt
                        |          |          |          smp_apic_timer_interrupt
                        |          |          |          apic_timer_interrupt
      
      The old case was producing unreliable callchains. Now having
      right frame and instruction pointers, we have the trace we
      want.
      
      Also syscalls and kprobe events already have the right regs,
      let's use them instead of wasting a retrieval.

      perf: Introduce new perf_fetch_caller_regs() for hot regs snapshot · 5331d7b8
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Events that trigger overflows by interrupting a context can
      use get_irq_regs() or task_pt_regs() to retrieve the state
      when the event triggered. But this is not the case for some
      other class of events like trace events as tracepoints are
      executed in the same context than the code that triggered
      the event.
      
      It means we need a different api to capture the regs there,
      namely we need a hot snapshot to get the most important
      informations for perf: the instruction pointer to get the
      event origin, the frame pointer for the callchain, the code
      segment for user_mode() tests (we always use __KERNEL_CS as
      trace events always occur from the kernel) and the eflags
      for further purposes.
      
      v2: rename perf_save_regs to perf_fetch_caller_regs as per
      Masami's suggestion.

      We were using the frame pointer based stack walker on every
      contexts in x86-32, but not in x86-64 where we only use the
      seven-league boots on the exception stacks.
      
      Use it also on irq and process stacks. This utterly accelerate

      lockdep: Move lock events under lockdep recursion protection · db2c4c77

      There are rcu locked read side areas in the path where we submit
      a trace event. And these rcu_read_(un)lock() trigger lock events,
      which create recursive events.

      The problem is not that much the trace recursion itself, as we have a
      recursion protection already (though it's always wasteful to recurse).
      But the trace events are outside the lockdep recursion protection, then
      each lockdep event triggers a lock trace, which will trigger two
      other lockdep events. Here the recursive lock trace event won't
      be taken because of the trace recursion, so the recursion stops there
      but lockdep will still analyse these new events:
      
      To sum up, for each lockdep events we have:
      
      	lock_*()
      	     |
                   trace lock_acquire
                        |
                        ----- rcu_read_lock()
                        |          |
                        |          lock_acquire()
                        |          |
                        |          trace_lock_acquire() (stopped)
                        |          |
      		  |          lockdep analyze
                        |
                        ----- rcu_read_unlock()
                                   |
                                   lock_release
                                   |
                                   trace_lock_release() (stopped)
                                   |
                                   lockdep analyze
      
      And you can repeat the above two times as we have two rcu read side
      sections when we submit an event.
      
      This is fixed in this patch by moving the lock trace event under
      the lockdep recursion protection.

      perf report: Print the map table just after samples for which no map was found · 65f2ed2b
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      If -vv is used just the map table will be printed, -vvv will
      print the symbol table too, with it we can see that we have a
      bug where some samples are not being resolved to a map when we
      get them in the perf.data stream, but after we have it all
      processed, we can find the right map, some reordering probably
      is happening.
      
      Upcoming patches will provide ways to ask for most PERF_SAMPLE_
      conditional samples to be taken for !PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE events
      too, then we'll be able to ask for PERF_SAMPLE_TIME and
      PERF_SAMPLE_CPU to help diagnose this.

      Perf report does not handle multiple events being reported, even

      addresses that issue by adding the logic to perf report to use
      the event stream id that is saved by record and the new data
      structures to seperate the event streams and report them
      individually.
