      perf jevents: Program to convert JSON file · 80eeb67f
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      This is a modified version of an earlier patch by Andi Kleen.
      
      We expect architectures to create JSON files describing the performance
      monitoring (PMU) events that each CPU model/family of the architecture
      supports.
      
      Following is an example of the JSON file entry for an x86 event:
      
          	[
          	...
          	{
          	"EventCode": "0x00",
          	"UMask": "0x01",
          	"EventName": "INST_RETIRED.ANY",
          	"BriefDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.",
          	"PublicDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.",
          	"Counter": "Fixed counter 1",
          	"CounterHTOff": "Fixed counter 1",
          	"SampleAfterValue": "2000003",
          	"SampleAfterValue": "2000003",
          	"MSRIndex": "0",
          	"MSRValue": "0",
          	"TakenAlone": "0",
          	"CounterMask": "0",
          	"Invert": "0",
          	"AnyThread": "0",
          	"EdgeDetect": "0",
          	"PEBS": "0",
          	"PRECISE_STORE": "0",
          	"Errata": "null",
          	"Offcore": "0"
          	},
          	...
      
          	]
      
      All the PMU events supported by a CPU model/family must be grouped into
      "topics" such as "Pipelining", "Floating-point", "Virtual-memory" etc.
      
      All events belonging to a topic must be placed in a separate JSON file
      (eg: "Pipelining.json") and all the topic JSON files for a CPU model must
      be in a separate directory.
      
      	Eg: for the CPU model "Silvermont_core":
      
          	$ ls tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core
          	Floating-point.json
          	Memory.json
          	Other.json
          	Pipelining.json
          	Virtualmemory.json
      
      Finally, to allow multiple CPU models to share a single set of JSON files,
      architectures must provide a mapping between a model and its set of events:
      
          	$ grep Silvermont tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/mapfile.csv
          	GenuineIntel-6-4D,V13,Silvermont_core,core
          	GenuineIntel-6-4C,V13,Silvermont_core,core
      
      which maps each CPU, identified by [vendor, family, model, version, type]
      to a directory of JSON files. Thus two (or more) CPU models support the
      set of PMU events listed in the directory.
      
          	tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core/
      
      Given this organization of files, the program, jevents:
      
      	- locates all JSON files for each CPU-model of the architecture,
      
      	- parses all JSON files for the CPU-model and generates a C-style
      	  "PMU-events table" (pmu-events.c) for the model
      
      	- locates a mapfile for the architecture
      
      	- builds a global table, mapping each model of CPU to the corresponding
      	  PMU-events table.
      
      The 'pmu-events.c' is generated when building perf and added to libperf.a.
      The global table pmu_events_map[] table in this pmu-events.c will be used
      in perf in a follow-on patch.
      
      If the architecture does not have any JSON files or there is an error in
      processing them, an empty mapping file is created. This would allow the
      build of perf to proceed even if we are not able to provide aliases for
      events.
      
      The parser for JSON files allows parsing Intel style JSON event files. This
      allows to use an Intel event list directly with perf. The Intel event lists
      can be quite large and are too big to store in unswappable kernel memory.
      
      The conversion from JSON to C-style is straight forward.  The parser knows
      (very little) Intel specific information, and can be easily extended to
      handle fields for other CPUs.
      
      The parser code is partially shared with an independent parsing library,
      which is 2-clause BSD licensed. To avoid any conflicts I marked those
      files as BSD licensed too. As part of perf they become GPLv2.
      
      Committer notes:
      
      Fixes:
      
      1) Limit maxfds to 512 to avoid nftd() segfaulting on alloca() with a
         big rlim_max, as in docker containers - acme
      
      2) Make jevents a hostprog, supporting cross compilation - jolsa
      
      3) Use HOSTCC for jevents final step - acme
      
      4) Define _GNU_SOURCE for asprintf, as we can't use CC's EXTRA_CFLAGS,
        that has to have --sysroot on the Android NDK 24 - acme
      
      5) Removed $(srctree)/tools/perf/pmu-events/pmu-events.c from the
         'clean' target, it is generated on $(OUTPUT)pmu-events/pmu-events.c,
         which is already taken care of in the original patch - acme

      perf tools: Let python use correct gcc for build_ext · 48d8d5db
      He Kuang 提交于
      Currently, python uses host gcc instead of cross-compile gcc in the last
      step of compiling build_ext(remove '--quiet' to show verbose):
      
        cross-gcc ...
        cross-gcc ...
        creating ~/out/python_ext_build/lib
        gcc -pthread -shared -Wl,-z ...
      
      This is wrong but may not cause any errors unless the features detected
      by cross-compiler do not match those for host compiler, and causes the
      following errors:
      
        /usr/lib64/gcc/bin/ld: cannot find -lunwind-x86
        collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
        error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
        cp: cannot stat ‘~/out/python_ext_build/lib/perf.so’: No such file or directory

        Makefile:68: recipe for target 'all' failed
        make: *** [all] Error 2

      perf tools: Build syscall table .c header from kernel's syscall_64.tbl · 1b700c99
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      We used libaudit to map ids to syscall names and vice-versa, but that
      imposes a delay in supporting new syscalls, having to wait for libaudit
      to get those new syscalls on its tables.
      
      To remove that delay, for x86_64 initially, grab a copy of
      arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl and use it to generate those
      tables.
      
      Syscalls currently not available in audit-libs:
      
        # trace -e copy_file_range,membarrier,mlock2,pread64,pwrite64,timerfd_create,userfaultfd
        Error:	Invalid syscall copy_file_range, membarrier, mlock2, pread64, pwrite64, timerfd_create, userfaultfd
        Hint:	try 'perf list syscalls:sys_enter_*'
        Hint:	and: 'man syscalls'
        #
      
      With this patch:
      
        # trace -e copy_file_range,membarrier,mlock2,pread64,pwrite64,timerfd_create,userfaultfd

      perf test: Add libbpf relocation checker · 7b6982ce
      Wang Nan 提交于
      There's a bug in LLVM that it can generate unneeded relocation
      information. See [1] and [2]. Libbpf should check the target section of
      a relocation symbol.
      
      This patch adds a testcase which references a global variable (BPF
      doesn't support global variables). Before fixing libbpf, the new test
      case can be loaded into kernel, the global variable acts like the first
      map. It is incorrect.
      
      Result:

        ...

        make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
      
      Currently we have the install-traceevent-plugins target being dependent
      on $(LIBTRACEEVENT), which will actualy not build any plugin. So the
      install-traceevent-plugins target itself will try to build plugins,
      but..
      
      Plugins built is also triggered by perf build itself via
      libtraceevent_plugins target.
      
      This might cause a race having one make thread removing temp files from
      another and result in above error. Fixing this by having proper plugins
      build dependency before installing plugins.

      By adding libbpf into perf's Makefile, this patch enables perf to build
      libbpf if libelf is found and neither NO_LIBELF nor NO_LIBBPF is set.
      
      The newly introduced code is similar to how libapi and libtraceevent
      are wired into Makefile.perf.
      
      MANIFEST is also updated for 'make perf-*-src-pkg'.
      
      Append make_no_libbpf to tools/perf/tests/make.
      
      The 'bpf' feature check is appended into default FEATURE_TESTS and
      FEATURE_DISPLAY, so perf will check the API version of bpf in
      /path/to/kernel/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h. Which should not fail except
      when we are trying to port this code to an old kernel.
      
      Error messages are also updated to notify users about the lack of BPF
      support in 'perf record' if libelf is missing or the BPF API check
      failed.
      
      tools/lib/bpf is added to TAG_FOLDERS to allow us to navigate libbpf
      files when working on perf using tools/perf/tags.
