      perf tools: Encode kernel module mappings in perf.data · b7cece76
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      We were always looking at the running machine /proc/modules,
      even when processing a perf.data file, which only makes sense
      when we're doing 'perf record' and 'perf report' on the same
      machine, and in close sucession, or if we don't use modules at
      all, right Peter? ;-)
      
      Now, at 'perf record' time we read /proc/modules, find the long
      path for modules, and put them as PERF_MMAP events, just like we
      did to encode the reloc reference symbol for vmlinux. Talking
      about that now it is encoded in .pgoff, so that we can use
      .{start,len} to store the address boundaries for the kernel so
      that when we reconstruct the kmaps tree we can do lookups right
      away, without having to fixup the end of the kernel maps like we
      did in the past (and now only in perf record).
      
      One more step in the 'perf archive' direction when we'll finally
      be able to collect data in one machine and analyse in another.

      perf tools: Handle relocatable kernels · 56b03f3c
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      DSOs don't have this problem because the kernel emits a
      PERF_MMAP for each new executable mapping it performs on
      monitored threads.
      
      To fix the kernel case we simulate the same behaviour, by having
      'perf record' to synthesize a PERF_MMAP for the kernel, encoded
      like this:
      
      [root@doppio ~]# perf record -a -f sleep 1
      [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
      [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.344 MB perf.data (~15038 samples) ]
      [root@doppio ~]# perf report -D | head -10
      
      0xd0 [0x40]: event: 1
      .
      . ... raw event: size 64 bytes
      .  0000:  01 00 00 00 00 00 40 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ......@........
      .  0010:  00 00 00 81 ff ff ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ...............
      .  0020:  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 5b 6b 65 72 6e 65 6c 2e ........  [kernel
      .  0030:  6b 61 6c 6c 73 79 6d 73 2e 5f 74 65 78 74 5d 00  kallsyms._text]
      .  0xd0
      [0x40]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP 0/0: [0xffffffff81000000((nil)) @ (nil)]: [kernel.kallsyms._text]
      
      I.e. we identify such event as having:
      
       .pid      = 0
       .filename = [kernel.kallsyms.REFNAME]
       .start    = REFNAME addr in /proc/kallsyms at 'perf record' time
      
      and use now a hardcoded value of '.text' for REFNAME.
      
      Then, later, in 'perf report', if there are any kernel hits and
      thus we need to resolve kernel symbols, we search for REFNAME
      and if its address changed, relocation happened and we thus must
      change the kernel mapping routines to one that uses .pgoff as
      the relocation to apply.
      
      This way we use the same mechanism used for the other DSOs and
      don't have to do a two pass in all the kernel symbols.

      perf symbols: Rename kthreads to kmaps, using another abstraction for it · 9958e1f0
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Using a struct thread instance just to hold the kernel space maps
      (vmlinux + modules) is overkill and confuses people trying to
      understand the perf symbols abstractions.
      
      The kernel maps are really present in all threads, i.e. the kernel
      is a library, not a separate thread.
      
      So introduce the 'map_groups' abstraction and use it for the kernel
      maps, now in the kmaps global variable.
      
      It, in turn, will move, together with the threads list to the
      perf_file abstraction, so that we can support multiple perf_file
      instances, needed by perf diff.

      perf: Make common SAMPLE_EVENT parser · 180f95e2
      OGAWA Hirofumi 提交于
      Currently, sample event data is parsed for each commands, and it
      is assuming that the data is not including other data. (E.g.
      timechart, trace, etc. can't parse the event if it has
      PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN)
      
      So, even if we record the superset data for multiple commands at
      a time, commands can't parse. etc.
      
      To fix it, this makes common sample event parser, and use it to
      parse sample event correctly. (PERF_SAMPLE_READ is unsupported
      for now though, it seems to be not using.)

      perf tools: Consolidate symbol resolving across all tools · 1ed091c4
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Now we have a very high level routine for simple tools to
      process IP sample events:
      
      	int event__preprocess_sample(const event_t *self,
      				     struct addr_location *al,
      				     symbol_filter_t filter)
      
      It receives the event itself and will insert new threads in the
      global threads list and resolve the map and symbol, filling all
      this info into the new addr_location struct, so that tools like
      annotate and report can further process the event by creating
      hist_entries in their specific way (with or without callgraphs,
      etc).
      
      It in turn uses the new next layer function:
      
      	void thread__find_addr_location(struct thread *self, u8 cpumode,
      					enum map_type type, u64 addr,
      					struct addr_location *al,
      					symbol_filter_t filter)
      
      This one will, given a thread (userspace or the kernel kthread
      one), will find the given type (MAP__FUNCTION now, MAP__VARIABLE
      too in the near future) at the given cpumode, taking vdsos into
      account (userspace hit, but kernel symbol) and will fill all
      these details in the addr_location given.
      
      Tools that need a more compact API for plain function
      resolution, like 'kmem', can use this other one:
      
      	struct symbol *thread__find_function(struct thread *self, u64 addr,
      					     symbol_filter_t filter)
      
      So, to resolve a kernel symbol, that is all the 'kmem' tool
      needs, its just a matter of calling:
      
      	sym = thread__find_function(kthread, addr, NULL);
      
      The 'filter' parameter is needed because we do lazy
      parsing/loading of ELF symtabs or /proc/kallsyms.
      
      With this we remove more code duplication all around, which is
      always good, huh? :-)

      All those functions really don't need to receive offset + head,
      the only thing they did was common to all of them, so do it at
      one place instead.
      
      Stats about number of each type of event processed now is done
