      perf tools: Fix lost and unknown events handling · 068ffaa8
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Fix it by explaining what can be happening and giving the number of processed
      and lost events.
      
      Also holler if unknown events were found, that can be due to processing a
      perf.data file collected using a newer tool where newer events got added on
      reporting using an older perf tool, that or a bug, so ask for a report to be
      made.
      
      Works on both --tui and --stdio.

      perf events: Default to using event__process_lost · 37982ba0
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Tool developers have to fill in a 'perf_event_ops' method table to
      specify how to handle each event, so far the ones that were not
      explicitely especified would get a stub that would just discard the
      event.
      
      Change that so that tool developers can get the lost event details and
      the total number of such events at the end of 'perf report -D' output.

      perf session: Invalidate last_match when removing threads from rb_tree · 70597f21
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      If we receive two PERF_RECORD_EXIT for the same thread, we can end up
      reusing session->last_match and trying to remove the thread twice from
      the rb_tree, causing a segfault, so invalidade last_match in
      perf_session__remove_thread.
      
      Receiving two PERF_RECORD_EXIT for the same thread is a bug, but its a
      harmless one if we make the tool more robust, like this patch does.

      Make it also check if the kernel maps were actually created, which may not

      The problem was introduced in d65a458b, thus post .35.
      
      This also adds code to release guest machines as them are also created

      Move them to a session->dead_threads list just like we do with maps that

      The events_stats.total field is too generic, rename it to .total_period,
      and also add a comment explaining that it is the sum of all the .period
      fields in samples, that is needed because we use auto-freq to avoid
      sampling artifacts.
      
      Ditto for events_stats.lost, that is the sum of all lost_event.lost
      fields, i.e. the number of events the kernel dropped.
      
      Looking at the users, builtin-sched.c can make use of these fields and
      stop doing it again.

      perf hist: Introduce hists class and move lots of methods to it · 1c02c4d2
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      In cbbc79a5 we introduced support for multiple events by introducing a
      new "event_stat_id" struct and then made several perf_session methods
      receive a point to it instead of a pointer to perf_session, and kept the
      event_stats and hists rb_tree in perf_session.
      
      While working on the new newt based browser, I realised that it would be
      better to introduce a new class, "hists" (short for "histograms"),
      renaming the "event_stat_id" struct and the perf_session methods that
      were really "hists" methods, as they manipulate only struct hists
      members, not touching anything in the other perf_session members.
      
      Other optimizations, such as calculating the maximum lenght of a symbol
      name present in an hists instance will be possible as we add them,
      avoiding a re-traversal just for finding that information.
      
      The rationale for the name "hists" to replace "event_stat_id" is that we
      may have multiple sets of hists for the same event_stat id, as, for
      instance, the 'perf diff' tool has, so event stat id is not what
      characterizes what this struct and the functions that manipulate it do.

      perf: Provide a new deterministic events reordering algorithm · d6b17beb
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      The current events reordering algorithm is based on a heuristic that
      gets broken once we deal with a very fast flow of events.
      
      Indeed the time period based flushing is not suitable anymore
      in the following case, assuming we have a flush period of two
      seconds.
      
          CPU 0           |        CPU 1
                          |
        cnt1 timestamps   |      cnt1 timestamps
                          |
          0               |         0
          1               |         1
          2               |         2
          3               |         3
          [...]           |        [...]
          4 seconds later
      
      If we spend too much time to read the buffers (case of a lot of
      events to record in each buffers or when we have a lot of CPU buffers
      to read), in the next pass the CPU 0 buffer could contain a slice
      of several seconds of events. We'll read them all and notice we've
      reached the period to flush. In the above example we flush the first
      half of the CPU 0 buffer, then we read the CPU 1 buffer where we
      have events that were on the flush slice and then the reordering
      fails.
      
      It's simple to reproduce with:
      
      	perf lock record perf bench sched messaging
      
      To solve this, we use a new solution that doesn't rely on an
      heuristical time slice period anymore but on a deterministic basis
      based on how perf record does its job.
      
      perf record saves the buffers through passes. A pass is a tour
      on every buffers from every CPUs. This is made in order: for
      each CPU we read the buffers of every counters. So the more
      buffers we visit, the later will be the timstamps of their events.
      
      When perf record finishes a pass it records a
      PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND pseudo event.
      We record the max timestamp t found in the pass n. Assuming these
      timestamps are monotonic across cpus, we know that if a buffer
      still has events with timestamps below t, they will be all available
      and then read in the pass n + 1.
      Hence when we start to read the pass n + 2, we can safely flush every
      events with timestamps below t.
      
            ============ PASS n =================
               CPU 0         |   CPU 1
                             |
            cnt1 timestamps  |   cnt2 timestamps
                  1          |         2
                  2          |         3

                  4          |         6
                  5          |         7 <---- max recorded
      
              Flush every events below timestamp 4
      
            ============ PASS n + 2 ==============
               CPU 0         |   CPU 1
                             |
            cnt1 timestamps  |   cnt2 timestamps
                  6          |         8
                  7          |         9
                  -          |         10
      
              Flush every events below timestamp 7
              etc...
      
      It also works on perf.data versions that don't have
      PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND pseudo events. The difference is that
      the events will be only flushed in the end of the perf.data
      processing. It will then consume more memory and scale less with
      large perf.data files.

      perf: add perf-inject builtin · 454c407e
      Tom Zanussi 提交于
      Currently, perf 'live mode' writes build-ids at the end of the
      session, which isn't actually useful for processing live mode events.
      
      What would be better would be to have the build-ids sent before any of
      the samples that reference them, which can be done by processing the
      event stream and retrieving the build-ids on the first hit.  Doing
      that in perf-record itself, however, is off-limits.
      
      This patch introduces perf-inject, which does the same job while
      leaving perf-record untouched.  Normal mode perf still records the
      build-ids at the end of the session as it should, but for live mode,
      perf-inject can be injected in between the record and report steps
      e.g.:
      
      perf record -o - ./hackbench 10 | perf inject -v -b | perf report -v -i -
      
      perf-inject reads a perf-record event stream and repipes it to stdout.
      At any point the processing code can inject other events into the
      event stream - in this case build-ids (-b option) are read and
      injected as needed into the event stream.
      
      Build-ids are just the first user of perf-inject - potentially
      anything that needs userspace processing to augment the trace stream
      with additional information could make use of this facility.

      Those functions operated on members now grouped in 'struct machine', so
      move those methods to this new class.
      
      The changes made to 'perf probe' shows that using this abstraction
      inserting probes on guests almost got supported for free.

      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.

      perf: Generalize perf lock's sample event reordering to the session layer · c61e52ee
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      The sample events recorded by perf record are not time ordered
      because we have one buffer per cpu for each event (even demultiplexed
      per task/per cpu for task bound events). But when we read trace events
      we want them to be ordered by time because many state machines are
      involved.
      
      There are currently two ways perf tools deal with that:
      
      - use -M to multiplex every buffers (perf sched, perf kmem)
        But this creates a lot of contention in SMP machines on
        record time.
      
      - use a post-processing time reordering (perf timechart, perf lock)
        The reordering used by timechart is simple but doesn't scale well
        with huge flow of events, in terms of performance and memory use
        (unusable with perf lock for example).
        Perf lock has its own samples reordering that flushes its memory
        use in a regular basis and that uses a sorting based on the
        previous event queued (a new event to be queued is close to the
        previous one most of the time).
      
      This patch proposes to export perf lock's samples reordering facility
      to the session layer that reads the events. So if a tool wants to
      get ordered sample events, it needs to set its
      struct perf_event_ops::ordered_samples to true and that's it.
      
      This prepares tracing based perf tools to get rid of the need to
      use buffers multiplexing (-M) or to implement their own
      reordering.
      
      Also lower the flush period to 2 as it's sufficient already.

      perf: Convert perf tracing data into a tracing_data event · 9215545e
      Tom Zanussi 提交于
      Bypasses the tracing_data perf header code and replaces it with
      a synthesized event and processing function that accomplishes
      the same thing, used when reading/writing perf data to/from a
      pipe.
      
      The tracing data is pretty large, and this patch doesn't attempt
      to break it down into component events.  The tracing_data event
      itself doesn't actually contain the tracing data, rather it
      arranges for the event processing code to skip over it after
      it's read, using the skip return value added to the event
      processing loop in a previous patch.

      Making the attrs into events allows them to be streamed over a

      It also paves the way to allowing events to be added and removed
      from perf sessions dynamically.

      perf: Add pipe-specific header read/write and event processing code · 8dc58101
      Tom Zanussi 提交于
      This patch makes several changes to allow the perf event stream
      to be sent and received over a pipe:
      
      - adds pipe-specific versions of the header read/write code
      
      - adds pipe-specific version of the event processing code
      
      - adds a range of event types to be used for header or other
        pseudo events, above the range used by the kernel
      
      - checks the return value of event handlers, which they can use
        to skip over large events during event processing rather than actually
        reading them into event objects.
      
      - unifies the multiple do_read() functions and updates its
        users.
      
      Note that none of these changes affect the existing perf data
      file format or processing - this code only comes into play if
      perf output is sent to stdout (or is read from stdin).

      perf report: Add progress bars · 5f4d3f88
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      For when we are processing the events and inserting the entries in the
      browser.
      
      Experimentation here: naming "ui_something" we may be treading into
      creating a TUI/GUI set of routines that can then be implemented in terms
      of multiple backends.
      
      Also the time it takes for adding things to the "browser" takes, visually
      (I guess I should do some profiling here ;-) ), more time than for
      processing the events...
      
      That means we probably need to create a custom hist_entry browser, so
      that we reuse the structures we have in place instead of duplicating
      them in newt.
      
      But progress was made and at least we can see something while long files
      are being loaded, that must be one of UI 101 bullet points :-)
