perf: ftrace: Add filter support for option -F/--funcs

Same as 'perf probe -F', this patch adds filter support for the ftrace
subcommand option '-F, --funcs <[FILTER]>'.

Here is an example that only lists functions which start with 'vfs_':

$ sudo perf ftrace -F vfs_*
vfs_fadvise
vfs_fallocate
vfs_truncate
vfs_open
vfs_setpos
vfs_llseek
vfs_readf
vfs_writef

perf ftrace: Add option '-m/--buffer-size' to set per-cpu buffer size

This adds an option '-m/--buffer-size' to allow us set the size of per-cpu
tracing buffer.

Committer testing:

Before running with this option:

# find /sys/kernel/tracing/ -name buffer_size_kb | xargs cat
1408
1408
1408
1408
1408
1408
1408
1408
1408
#

Then, run:

# perf ftrace -m 2048K | head -10
2) | mutex_unlock() {
2) ==========> |
2) | smp_irq_work_interrupt() {
2) | irq_enter() {
2) 0.121 us | rcu_irq_enter();
2) 0.128 us | irqtime_account_irq();
2) 0.719 us | }
2) | __wake_up() {
2) | __wake_up_common_lock() {
2) 0.105 us | _raw_spin_lock_irqsave();
#

Now look at those tracefs knobs:

# find /sys/kernel/tracing/ -name buffer_size_kb | xargs cat
2048
2048
2048
2048
2048
2048
2048
2048
2048
#

This should be similar to the -m option in the other perf tools, such as
'perf record', 'perf trace', etc.

# eb6d31ae 07-Aug-2020 Changbin Du <changbin.du@intel.com>

perf ftrace: Select function/function_graph tracer automatically

The '-g/-G' options have already implied function_graph tracer should be
used instead of function tracer. So we don't need extra option
'--tracer' in this case.

This patch changes the behavior as below:

- If '-g' or '-G' option is on, then function_graph tracer is used.
- If '-T' or '-N' option is on, then function tracer is used.
- The function_graph has priority over function tracer.
- The option '--tracer' only take effect if neither -g/-G nor -T/-N
is specified.

Here are some examples.

This will start tracing all functions using default tracer:

$ sudo perf ftrace

This will trace all functions using function graph tracer:

$ sudo perf ftrace -G '*'

This will trace function vfs_read using function graph tracer:

$ sudo perf ftrace -G vfs_read

This will trace function vfs_read using function tracer:

$ sudo perf ftrace -T vfs_read

Committer notes:

Using '-h -G' will tell what that option is about, so to further clarify
the above examples:

# perf ftrace -h -G

-G, --graph-funcs <func> Set graph filter on given functions

# perf ftrace -h -g

-g, --nograph-funcs <func> Set nograph filter on given functions

# perf ftrace -h -T

-T, --trace-funcs <func> trace given functions only

# perf ftrace -h -N

-N, --notrace-funcs <func> do not trace given functions

perf tools: Correct title markers for asciidoctor

I've tested to process the perf man pages with asciidoctor that is
picker than asciidoc, and it revealed minor syntax errors in some

This patch corrects these markers to be processed properly.

# 78b83e8b 18-Jun-2017 Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>

perf ftrace: Add option for function filtering

The -T/--trace-funcs and -N/--notrace-funcs options are to specify
functions to enable/disable tracing dynamically.

The -G/--graph-funcs and -g/--nograph-funcs options are to set filters
for function graph tracer.

For example, to trace fault handling functions only:

$ sudo perf ftrace -T *fault hello
0) | __do_page_fault() {
0) | handle_mm_fault() {
0) 2.117 us | __handle_mm_fault();
0) 3.627 us | }
0) 7.811 us | }
0) | __do_page_fault() {
0) | handle_mm_fault() {
0) 2.014 us | __handle_mm_fault();
0) 2.424 us | }
0) 2.951 us | }
...

To trace all functions executed in __do_page_fault:

$ sudo perf ftrace -G __do_page_fault hello
2) | __do_page_fault() {
3) 0.060 us | down_read_trylock();
3) | find_vma() {
3) 0.075 us | vmacache_find();
3) 0.053 us | vmacache_update();
3) 1.246 us | }
3) | handle_mm_fault() {
3) 0.063 us | __rcu_read_lock();
3) 0.056 us | mem_cgroup_from_task();
3) 0.057 us | __rcu_read_unlock();
3) | __handle_mm_fault() {
3) | filemap_map_pages() {
3) 0.058 us | __rcu_read_lock();
3) | alloc_set_pte() {
...

But don't want to show details in handle_mm_fault:

$ sudo perf ftrace -G __do_page_fault -g handle_mm_fault hello
3) | __do_page_fault() {
3) 0.049 us | down_read_trylock();
3) | find_vma() {
3) 0.048 us | vmacache_find();
3) 0.041 us | vmacache_update();
3) 0.680 us | }
3) 0.036 us | up_read();
3) 4.547 us | } /* __do_page_fault */

perf ftrace: Introduce new 'ftrace' tool

The 'perf ftrace' command is a simple wrapper of kernel's ftrace
functionality. It only supports single thread tracing currently and
just reads trace_pipe in text and then write it to stdout.

Committer notes:

Testing it:

# perf ftrace -f function_graph usleep 123456
