      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.

      perf kvm: Events analysis tool · bcf6edcd
      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 tools: Back [vdso] DSO with real data · 7dbf4dcf
      Jiri Olsa 提交于
      Storing data for VDSO shared object, because we need it for the post
      unwind processing.
      
      The VDSO shared object is same for all process on a running system, so
      it makes no difference when we store it inside the tracer - perf.
      
      When [vdso] map memory is hit, we retrieve [vdso] DSO image and store it
      into temporary file.
      
      During the build-id processing phase, the [vdso] DSO image is stored in
      build-id db, and build-id reference is made inside perf.data. The
      build-id vdso file object is called '[vdso]'. We don't use temporary
      file name which gets removed when record is finished.
      
      During report phase the vdso build-id object is treated as any other
      build-id DSO object.
      
      Adding following API for vdso object:
      
        bool is_vdso_map(const char *filename)
          - returns true if the filename matches vdso map name
      
        struct dso *vdso__dso_findnew(struct list_head *head)
          - find/create proper vdso DSO object
      
        vdso__exit(void)
          - removes temporary VDSO image if there's any
      
      This change makes backtrace dwarf post unwind possible from [vdso] maps.
      
      Following output is current report of [vdso] sample dwarf backtrace:
      
        # Overhead  Command      Shared Object                         Symbol

      perf tools: Add pmu mappings to header information · 50a9667c
      Robert Richter 提交于
      With dynamic pmu allocation there are also dynamically assigned pmu ids.
      These ids are used in event->attr.type to describe the pmu to be used
      for that event. The information is available in sysfs, e.g:
      
       /sys/bus/event_source/devices/breakpoint/type: 5
       /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/type: 4
       /sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_fetch/type: 6
       /sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_op/type: 7
       /sys/bus/event_source/devices/software/type: 1
       /sys/bus/event_source/devices/tracepoint/type: 2
      
      These mappings are needed to know which samples belong to which pmu.  If
      a pmu is added dynamically like for ibs_fetch or ibs_op the type value
      may vary.
      
      Now, when decoding samples from perf.data this information in sysfs
      might be no longer available or may have changed. We need to store it in
      perf.data. Using the header for this. Now the header information created
      with perf report contains an additional section looking like this:
      
       # pmu mappings: ibs_op = 7, ibs_fetch = 6, cpu = 4, breakpoint = 5, tracepoint = 2, software = 1

      perf tools: Make perf.data more self-descriptive (v8) · fbe96f29
      Stephane Eranian 提交于
      The goal of this patch is to include more information about the host
      environment into the perf.data so it is more self-descriptive. Overtime,
      profiles are captured on various machines and it becomes hard to track
      what was recorded, on what machine and when.
      
      This patch provides a way to solve this by extending the perf.data file
      with basic information about the host machine. To add those extensions,
      we leverage the feature bits capabilities of the perf.data format.  The
      change is backward compatible with existing perf.data files.
      
      We define the following useful new extensions:
       - HEADER_HOSTNAME: the hostname
       - HEADER_OSRELEASE: the kernel release number
       - HEADER_ARCH: the hw architecture
       - HEADER_CPUDESC: generic CPU description
       - HEADER_NRCPUS: number of online/avail cpus
       - HEADER_CMDLINE: perf command line
       - HEADER_VERSION: perf version
       - HEADER_TOPOLOGY: cpu topology
       - HEADER_EVENT_DESC: full event description (attrs)
       - HEADER_CPUID: easy-to-parse low level CPU identication
      
      The small granularity for the entries is to make it easier to extend
      without breaking backward compatiblity. Many entries are provided as
      ASCII strings.
      
      Perf report/script have been modified to print the basic information as
      easy-to-parse ASCII strings. Extended information about CPU and NUMA
      topology may be requested with the -I option.
      
      Thanks to David Ahern for reviewing and testing the many versions of
      this patch.

      emerging perf lib.

      perf tools: Improve support for sessions with multiple events · e248de33
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      By creating an perf_evlist out of the attributes in the perf.data file
      header, so that we can use evlists and evsels when reading recorded
      sessions in addition to when we record sessions.
      
      More work is needed to allow tools to allow the user to select which
      events are wanted when browsing sessions, be it just one or a subset of
      them, aggregated or showed at the same time but with different
      indications on the UI to allow seeing workloads thru different views at
      the same time.
      
      But the overall goal/trend is to more uniformly use evsels and evlists.

      perf evsel: Introduce perf_evlist · 361c99a6
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Killing two more perf wide global variables: nr_counters and evsel_list
      as a list_head.
      
      There are more operations that will need more fields in perf_evlist,
      like the pollfd for polling all the fds in a list of evsel instances.
      
      Use option->value to pass the evsel_list to parse_{events,filters}.

      First column is the cpu and the second the timestamp.
      
      That way we can investigate problems in the event stream.
      
      If the new perf binary is run on an older kernel, it will disable this feature
      automatically.

      perf record: Add option to disable collecting build-ids · baa2f6ce
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Collecting build-ids for long running sessions may take a long time
      because it needs to traverse the whole just collected perf.data stream
      of events, marking the DSOs that had hits and then looking for the
      .note.gnu.build-id ELF section.
      
      For things like the 'trace' tool that records and right away consumes
      the data on systems where its unlikely that the DSOs being monitored
      will change while 'trace' runs, it is desirable to remove build id
      collection, so add a -B/--no-buildid option to perf record to allow such
      use case.
      
      Longer term we'll avoid all this if we, at DSO load time, in the kernel,
      take advantage of this slow code path to collect the build-id and stash
      it somewhere, so that we can insert it in the PERF_RECORD_MMAP event.

      perf tools: Rename "kernel_info" to "machine" · 23346f21
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      struct kernel_info and kerninfo__ are too vague, what they really
      describe are machines, virtual ones or hosts.
      
      There are more changes to introduce helpers to shorten function calls
      and to make more clear what is really being done, but I left that for
      subsequent patches.
