      perf evlist: Make event_copy local to mmaps · 0479b8b9
      由 David Ahern 提交于 
      I am getting segfaults *after* the time sorting of perf samples where
the event type is off the charts:

(gdb) bt
\#0  0x0807b1b2 in hists__inc_nr_events (hists=0x80a99c4, type=1163281902) at util/hist.c:1225
\#1  0x08070795 in perf_session_deliver_event (session=0x80a9b90, event=0xf7a6aff8, sample=0xffffc318, tool=0xffffc520,
    file_offset=0) at util/session.c:884
\#2  0x0806f9b9 in flush_sample_queue (s=0x80a9b90, tool=0xffffc520) at util/session.c:555
\#3  0x0806fc53 in process_finished_round (tool=0xffffc520, event=0x0, session=0x80a9b90) at util/session.c:645

This is bizarre because the event has already been processed once --
before it was added to the samples queue -- and the event was found to
be sane at that time.

There seem to be 2 causes:

1. perf_evlist__mmap_read updates the read location even though there
are outstanding references to events sitting in the mmap buffers via the
ordered samples queue.

2. There is a single evlist->event_copy for all evlist entries.
event_copy is used to handle an event wrapping at the mmap buffer
boundary.

This patch addresses the second problem - making event_copy local to
each perf_mmap. With this change my highly repeatable use case no longer
fails.

The first problem is much more complicated and will be the subject of a
future patch.

Also we need to have the list_entry set_leader method in evlist.c so that we
don't grow another dep in the python binding:

And also remove a pr_debug from evsel.c so that we avoid this one too:

      perf tools: Enable grouping logic for parsed events · 6a4bb04c
      由 Jiri Olsa 提交于 
      This patch adds a functionality that allows to create event groups
based on the way they are specified on the command line. Adding
functionality to the '{}' group syntax introduced in earlier patch.

The current '--group/-g' option behaviour remains intact. If you
specify it for record/stat/top command, all the specified events
become members of a single group with the first event as a group
leader.

With the new '{}' group syntax you can create group like:
  # perf record -e '{cycles,faults}' ls

resulting in single event group containing 'cycles' and 'faults'
events, with cycles event as group leader.

All groups are created with regards to threads and cpus. Thus
recording an event group within a 2 threads on server with
4 CPUs will create 8 separate groups.

Examples (first event in brackets is group leader):

  # 1 group (cpu-clock,task-clock)
  perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock ls
  perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock}' ls

  # 2 groups (cpu-clock,task-clock) (minor-faults,major-faults)
  perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock},{minor-faults,major-faults}' ls

  # 1 group (cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults)
  perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock -e minor-faults,major-faults ls
  perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults}' ls

  # 2 groups (cpu-clock,task-clock) (minor-faults,major-faults)
  perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock} -e '{minor-faults,major-faults}' \
   -e instructions ls

  # 1 group
  # (cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults,instructions)
  perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock \
   -e minor-faults,major-faults -e instructions ls perf record -e
'{cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults,instructions}' ls

It's possible to use standard event modifier for a group, which spans
over all events in the group and updates each event modifier settings,
for example:

  # perf record -r '{faults:k,cache-references}:p'

resulting in ':kp' modifier being used for 'faults' and ':p' modifier
being used for 'cache-references' event.

      perf tools: Stop using a global trace events description list · da378962
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      The pevent thing is per perf.data file, so I made it stop being static
and become a perf_session member, so tools processing perf.data files
use perf_session and _there_ we read the trace events description into
session->pevent and then change everywhere to stop using that single
global pevent variable and use the per session one.

Note that it _doesn't_ fall backs to trace__event_id, as we're not
interested at all in what is present in the
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events in the workstation doing the analysis,
just in what is in the perf.data file.

This patch also introduces perf_session__set_tracepoints_handlers that
is the perf perf.data/session way to associate handlers to tracepoint
events by resolving their IDs using the events descriptions stored in a
perf.data file. Make 'perf sched' use it.

      perf stat: Initialize default events wrt exclude_{guest,host} · 79695e1b
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      When no event is specified the tools use perf_evlist__add_default(), that will
call event_attr_init to initialize the KVM exclusion bits.

When the change was made to the tools so that by default guest samples would be
excluded, the changes were made just to the parsing routines and to
perf_evlist__add_default(), not to perf_evlist__add_attrs, that is used so far
just by perf stat to add multiple events, according to the level of detail
specified.

Recently the tools were changed to reconstruct the event name from all the
details in perf_event_attr, not just from .type and .config, but taking into
account all the feature bits (.exclude_{guest,host,user,kernel,etc},
.precise_ip, etc).

That is when we noticed that the default for perf stat wasn't the one for the
rest of the tools, i.e. the .exclude_guest bit wasn't being set.

I.e. the default, that doesn't call event_attr_init was showing the :HG
modifier:

  $ perf stat usleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':

11 mmaps, one per thread since we didn't specify any CPU list, so we need one
mmap per thread and:

^C[ perf record: Woken up 79 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 20.614 MB perf.data (~900639 samples) ]

Ok, one of the threads, 26151 was quiescent, so no samples there, but all the
others are there.

Then, if I specify one CPU:

[root@felicio ~]# perf record -F 50000 --pid 26131 --cpu 1
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.680 MB perf.data (~29730 samples) ]

This machine has two cores, so fewer threads appeared on the radar, and:

[root@felicio ~]# grep perf_event /proc/`pidof perf`/maps | nl
 1 7f484b922000-7f484b9a3000 rwxs 00000000 00:09 4064 anon_inode:[perf_event]
[root@felicio ~]#

Just one mmap, as now we can use just one per-cpu buffer instead of the
per-thread needed in the previous case.

For global profiling:

[root@felicio ~]# perf record -F 50000 -a
^C[ perf record: Woken up 26 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 7.128 MB perf.data (~311412 samples) ]

[root@felicio ~]# grep perf_event /proc/`pidof perf`/maps | nl
     1	7fb49b435000-7fb49b4b6000 rwxs 00000000 00:09 4064                       anon_inode:[perf_event]
     2	7fb49b4b6000-7fb49b537000 rwxs 00000000 00:09 4064                       anon_inode:[perf_event]
[root@felicio ~]#

It uses per-cpu buffers.

For just one thread:

[root@felicio ~]# perf record -F 50000 --tid 26148
^C[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.330 MB perf.data (~14426 samples) ]

      perf session: Use evlist/evsel for managing perf.data attributes · a91e5431
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      So that we can reuse things like the id to attr lookup routine
(perf_evlist__id2evsel) that uses a hash table instead of the linear
lookup done in the older perf_header_attr routines, etc.

Also to make evsels/evlist more pervasive an API, simplyfing using the
emerging perf lib.

      The previous situation was to receive an fd from where to read the event
ID.

Spin off a routine for when we have the ID handy, not having to read it
from some fd.

      perf: Set filters before mmaping events · 0a102479
      由 Frederic Weisbecker 提交于 
      We currently set the filters after we mmap the events, this is a
race that let undesired events record themselves in the buffer before
we had the time to set the filters.

So set the filters before they can be recorded. That also librarizes
the filters setting so that filtering can be done more easily
from other tools than perf record later.

      perf evlist: Store pointer to the cpu and thread maps · 7e2ed097
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      So that we don't have to pass it around to the several methods that
needs it, simplifying usage.

There is one case where we don't have the thread/cpu map in advance,
which is in the parsing routines used by top, stat, record, that we have
to wait till all options are parsed to know if a cpu or thread list was
passed to then create those maps.

For that case consolidate the cpu and thread map creation via
perf_evlist__create_maps() out of the code in top and record, while also
providing a perf_evlist__set_maps() for cases where multiple evlists
share maps or for when maps that represent CPU sockets, for instance,
get crafted out of topology information or subsets of threads in a
particular application are to be monitored, providing more granularity
in specifying which cpus and threads to monitor.
