    • A
      perf tools: Take Intel PT into use · 5efb1d54
      Adrian Hunter 提交于
      To record an AUX area, the weak function auxtrace_record__init() must be
      implemented.
      
      Equally to decode an AUX area, the AUX area tracing type must be added
      to the perf_event__process_auxtrace_info() function.
      
      This patch makes those two changes plus hooks up default config for the
      intel_pt PMU.  Also some brief documentation is provided for using the
      tools with intel_pt.

      perf tools: Add Intel PT support · 90e457f7
      Adrian Hunter 提交于
      Add support for Intel Processor Trace.
      
      Intel PT support fits within the new auxtrace infrastructure.  Recording
      is supporting by identifying the Intel PT PMU, parsing options and
      setting up events.
      
      Decoding is supported by queuing up trace data by cpu or thread and then
      decoding synchronously delivering synthesized event samples into the
      session processing for tools to consume.

      perf tools: Add libdw DWARF post unwind support · 5ea84154
      Jiri Olsa 提交于
      Adding libdw DWARF post unwind support, which is part of
      elfutils-devel/libdw-dev package from version 0.158.
      
      The new code is contained in unwin-libdw.c object, and implements
      unwind__get_entries unwind interface function.
      
      New Makefile variable NO_LIBDW_DWARF_UNWIND was added to control its
      compilation, and is marked as disabled now.  It's factored with the rest
      of the Makefile unwind build code in the next patch.
      
      Arch specific code was added for x86.

      perf: Fix capabilities bitfield compatibility in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page' · fa731587
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      Solve the problems around the broken definition of perf_event_mmap_page::
      cap_usr_time and cap_usr_rdpmc fields which used to overlap, partially
      fixed by:
      
        860f085b ("perf: Fix broken union in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'")
      
      The problem with the fix (merged in v3.12-rc1 and not yet released
      officially), noticed by Vince Weaver is that the new behavior is
      not detectable by new user-space, and that due to the reuse of the
      field names it's easy to mis-compile a binary if old headers are used
      on a new kernel or new headers are used on an old kernel.
      
      To solve all that make this change explicit, detectable and self-contained,
      by iterating the ABI the following way:
      
       - Always clear bit 0, and rename it to usrpage->cap_bit0, to at least not
         confuse old user-space binaries. RDPMC will be marked as unavailable
         to old binaries but that's within the ABI, this is a capability bit.
      
       - Rename bit 1 to ->cap_bit0_is_deprecated and always set it to 1, so new
         libraries can reliably detect that bit 0 is deprecated and perma-zero
         without having to check the kernel version.
      
       - Use bits 2, 3, 4 for the newly defined, correct functionality:
      
      	cap_user_rdpmc		: 1, /* The RDPMC instruction can be used to read counts */
      	cap_user_time		: 1, /* The time_* fields are used */
      	cap_user_time_zero	: 1, /* The time_zero field is used */
      
       - Rename all the bitfield names in perf_event.h to be different from the
         old names, to make sure it's not possible to mis-compile it
         accidentally with old assumptions.
      
      The 'size' field can then be used in the future to add new fields and it
      will act as a natural ABI version indicator as well.
      
      Also adjust tools/perf/ userspace for the new definitions, noticed by
      Adrian Hunter.

      perf tools: Support for DWARF CFI unwinding on post processing · 71ad0f5e
      Jiri Olsa 提交于
      This brings the support for DWARF cfi unwinding on perf post
      processing. Call frame informations are retrieved and then passed
      to libunwind that requests memory and register content from the
      applications.
      
      Adding unwind object to handle the user stack backtrace based
      on the user register values and user stack dump.
      
      The unwind object access the libunwind via remote interface
      and provides to it all the necessary data to unwind the stack.
      
      The unwind interface provides following function:
      	unwind__get_entries
      
      And callback (specified in above function) to retrieve
      the backtrace entries:
      	typedef int (*unwind_entry_cb_t)(struct unwind_entry *entry,
      					 void *arg);

      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.
