We can use it together with "--all-kernel" options. This two options is used just like print_stack(sys) or print_ustack(usr) for systemtap. Shown below is the usage of this new option combined with "--all-kernel" options: 1. Configure all used events to run in kernel space and just collect kernel callchains. $ perf record -a -g --all-kernel --kernel-callchains 2. Configure all used events to run in kernel space and just collect user callchains. $ perf record -a -g --all-kernel --user-callchains Committer notes: Improved documentation to state that asking for kernel callchains really is asking for excluding user callchains, and vice versa.

perf record: Implement --mmap-flush=<number> option Implement a --mmap-flush option that specifies minimal number of bytes that is extracted from mmaped kernel buffer to store into a trace. The default option value is 1 byte what means every time trace writing thread finds some new data in the mmaped buffer the data is extracted, possibly compressed and written to a trace. $ tools/perf/perf record --mmap-flush 1024 -e cycles -- matrix.gcc $ tools/perf/perf record --aio --mmap-flush 1K -e cycles -- matrix.gcc The option is independent from -z setting, doesn't vary with compression level and can serve two purposes. The first purpose is to increase the compression ratio of a trace data. Larger data chunks are compressed more effectively so the implemented option allows specifying data chunk size to compress. Also at some cases executing more write syscalls with smaller data size can take longer than executing less write syscalls with bigger data size due to syscall overhead so extracting bigger data chunks specified by the option value could additionally decrease runtime overhead. The second purpose is to avoid self monitoring live-lock issue in system wide (-a) profiling mode. Profiling in system wide mode with compression (-a -z) can additionally induce data into the kernel buffers along with the data from monitored processes. If performance data rate and volume from the monitored processes is high then trace streaming and compression activity in the tool is also high. High tool process activity can lead to subtle live-lock effect when compression of single new byte from some of mmaped kernel buffer leads to generation of the next single byte at some mmaped buffer. So perf tool process ends up in endless self monitoring. Implemented synch parameter is the mean to force data move independently from the specified flush threshold value. Despite the provided flush value the tool needs capability to unconditionally drain memory buffers, at least in the end of the collection. Committer testing: Running with the default value, i.e. as soon as there is something to read go on consuming, we first write the synthesized events, small chunks of about 128 bytes: # perf trace -m 2048 --call-graph dwarf -e write -- perf record <SNIP> 101.142 ( 0.004 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x210db60, count: 120) = 120 __libc_write (/usr/lib64/libpthread-2.28.so) ion (/home/acme/bin/perf) record__write (inlined) process_synthesized_event (/home/acme/bin/perf) perf_tool__process_synth_event (inlined) perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events (/home/acme/bin/perf) Then we move to reading the mmap buffers consuming the events put there by the kernel perf infrastructure: 107.561 ( 0.005 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7f1befc02000, count: 336) = 336 __libc_write (/usr/lib64/libpthread-2.28.so) ion (/home/acme/bin/perf) record__write (inlined) record__pushfn (/home/acme/bin/perf) perf_mmap__push (/home/acme/bin/perf) record__mmap_read_evlist (inlined) record__mmap_read_all (inlined) __cmd_record (inlined) cmd_record (/home/acme/bin/perf) 12919.953 ( 0.136 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7f1befc83150, count: 184984) = 184984 <SNIP same backtrace as in the 107.561 timestamp> 12920.094 ( 0.155 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7f1befc02150, count: 261816) = 261816 <SNIP same backtrace as in the 107.561 timestamp> 12920.253 ( 0.093 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7f1befb81120, count: 170832) = 170832 <SNIP same backtrace as in the 107.561 timestamp> If we limit it to write only when more than 16MB are available for reading, it throttles that to a quarter of the --mmap-pages set for 'perf record', which by default get to 528384 bytes, found out using 'record -v': mmap flush: 132096 mmap size 528384B With that in place all the writes coming from record__mmap_read_evlist(), i.e. from the mmap buffers setup by the kernel perf infrastructure were at least 132096 bytes long.

perf record: Replace option --bpf-event with --no-bpf-event Currently, monitoring of BPF programs through bpf_event is off by default for 'perf record'. To turn it on, the user need to use option "--bpf-event". As BPF gets wider adoption in different subsystems, this option becomes inconvenient. This patch makes bpf_event on by default, and adds option "--no-bpf-event" to turn it off. Since option --bpf-event is not released yet, it is safe to remove it.

perf tools: Handle PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT This patch adds basic handling of PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT. Tracking of PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT is OFF by default. Option --bpf-event is added to turn it on. Committer notes: Add dummy machine__process_bpf_event() variant that returns zero for systems without HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT, such as Alpine Linux, unbreaking the build in such systems. Remove the needless include <machine.h> from bpf->event.h, provide just forward declarations for the structs and unions in the parameters, to reduce compilation time and needless rebuilds when machine.h gets changed. Committer testing: When running with: # perf record --bpf-event On an older kernel where PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT and PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL is not present, we fallback to removing those two bits from perf_event_attr, making the tool to continue to work on older kernels: perf_event_attr: size 112 { sample_period, sample_freq } 4000 sample_type IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD read_format ID disabled 1 inherit 1 mmap 1 comm 1 freq 1 enable_on_exec 1 task 1 precise_ip 3 sample_id_all 1 exclude_guest 1 mmap2 1 comm_exec 1 ksymbol 1 bpf_event 1 ------------------------------------------------------------ sys_perf_event_open: pid 5779 cpu 0 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 sys_perf_event_open failed, error -22 switching off bpf_event ------------------------------------------------------------ perf_event_attr: size 112 { sample_period, sample_freq } 4000 sample_type IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD read_format ID disabled 1 inherit 1 mmap 1 comm 1 freq 1 enable_on_exec 1 task 1 precise_ip 3 sample_id_all 1 exclude_guest 1 mmap2 1 comm_exec 1 ksymbol 1 ------------------------------------------------------------ sys_perf_event_open: pid 5779 cpu 0 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 sys_perf_event_open failed, error -22 switching off ksymbol ------------------------------------------------------------ perf_event_attr: size 112 { sample_period, sample_freq } 4000 sample_type IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD read_format ID disabled 1 inherit 1 mmap 1 comm 1 freq 1 enable_on_exec 1 task 1 precise_ip 3 sample_id_all 1 exclude_guest 1 mmap2 1 comm_exec 1 ------------------------------------------------------------ And then proceeds to work without those two features. As passing --bpf-event is an explicit action performed by the user, perhaps we should emit a warning telling that the kernel has no such feature, but this can be done on top of this patch. Now with a kernel that supports these events, start the 'record --bpf-event -a' and then run 'perf trace sleep 10000' that will use the BPF augmented_raw_syscalls.o prebuilt (for another kernel version even) and thus should generate PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT events: [root@quaco ~]# perf record -e dummy -a --bpf-event ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.713 MB perf.data ] [root@quaco ~]# bpftool prog 13: cgroup_skb tag 7be49e3934a125ba gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:43-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 13,14 14: cgroup_skb tag 2a142ef67aaad174 gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:43-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 13,14 15: cgroup_skb tag 7be49e3934a125ba gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:43-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 15,16 16: cgroup_skb tag 2a142ef67aaad174 gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:43-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 15,16 17: cgroup_skb tag 7be49e3934a125ba gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:44-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 17,18 18: cgroup_skb tag 2a142ef67aaad174 gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:44-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 17,18 21: cgroup_skb tag 7be49e3934a125ba gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:45-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 21,22 22: cgroup_skb tag 2a142ef67aaad174 gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:45-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 21,22 31: tracepoint name sys_enter tag 12504ba9402f952f gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:19:56-0300 uid 0 xlated 512B jited 374B memlock 4096B map_ids 30,29,28 32: tracepoint name sys_exit tag c1bd85c092d6e4aa gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:19:56-0300 uid 0 xlated 256B jited 191B memlock 4096B map_ids 30,29 # perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT | nl 1 0 55834574849 0x4fc8 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 13 2 0 60129542145 0x5118 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 14 3 0 64424509441 0x5268 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 15 4 0 68719476737 0x53b8 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 16 5 0 73014444033 0x5508 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 17 6 0 77309411329 0x5658 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 18 7 0 90194313217 0x57a8 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 21 8 0 94489280513 0x58f8 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 22 9 7 620922484360 0xb6390 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 29 10 7 620922486018 0xb6410 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 2, flags 0, id 29 11 7 620922579199 0xb6490 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 30 12 7 620922580240 0xb6510 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 2, flags 0, id 30 13 7 620922765207 0xb6598 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 31 14 7 620922874543 0xb6620 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 32 # There, the 31 and 32 tracepoint BPF programs put in place by 'perf trace'.

perf tools: Allow specifying proc-map-timeout in config file The default timeout of 500ms for parsing /proc/<pid>/maps files is too short for profiling many of our services. This can be overridden by passing --proc-map-timeout to the relevant command but it'd be nice to globally increase our default value. This patch permits setting a different default with the core.proc-map-timeout config file parameter.

perf tools: Fix the build on the alpine:edge distro The UAPI file byteorder/little_endian.h uses the __always_inline define without including the header where it is defined, linux/stddef.h, this ends up working in all the other distros because that file gets included seemingly by luck from one of the files included from little_endian.h. But not on Alpine:edge, that fails for all files where perf_event.h is included but linux/stddef.h isn't include before that. Adding the missing linux/stddef.h file where it breaks on Alpine:edge to fix that, in all other distros, that is just a very small header anyway.

perf tools: Add 'perf -vv' as an alias to 'perf version --build-options' We keep having bug reports that when users build perf on their own, but they don't install some needed libraries such as libelf, libbfd/libibery. The perf can build, but it is missing important functionality. This patch provides a new option '-vv' for perf which will print the compiled-in status of libraries. The 'perf -vv' is mapped to 'perf version --build-options'. For example: $ ./perf -vv perf version 4.13.rc5.g6727c5 dwarf: [ on ] # HAVE_DWARF_SUPPORT dwarf_getlocations: [ on ] # HAVE_DWARF_GETLOCATIONS_SUPPORT glibc: [ on ] # HAVE_GLIBC_SUPPORT gtk2: [ on ] # HAVE_GTK2_SUPPORT libaudit: [ OFF ] # HAVE_LIBAUDIT_SUPPORT libbfd: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBBFD_SUPPORT libelf: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBELF_SUPPORT libnuma: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBNUMA_SUPPORT numa_num_possible_cpus: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBNUMA_SUPPORT libperl: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBPERL_SUPPORT libpython: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBPYTHON_SUPPORT libslang: [ on ] # HAVE_SLANG_SUPPORT libcrypto: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBCRYPTO_SUPPORT libunwind: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBUNWIND_SUPPORT libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ on ] # HAVE_DWARF_SUPPORT zlib: [ on ] # HAVE_ZLIB_SUPPORT lzma: [ on ] # HAVE_LZMA_SUPPORT get_cpuid: [ on ] # HAVE_AUXTRACE_SUPPORT bpf: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT v3: One bug is found in v2.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

perf evsel: Allow to ignore missing pid Adding perf_evsel::ignore_missing_cpu_thread bool. When set true, it allows perf to ignore error of missing pid of perf event syscall. We remove missing thread id from the thread_map, so the rest of the processing like ioctl and mmap won't get disturbed with -1 fd. The reason for supporting this is to ease up monitoring group of pids, that 'disappear' before perf opens their event. This currently leads perf to report error and exit and makes perf record's -u option unusable under certain setup. With this change we will allow this race and ignore such failure with following warning: WARNING: Ignored open failure for pid 8605 Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161213074622.GA3084@krava Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

perf record: Add --tail-synthesize option When working with overwritable ring buffer there's a inconvenience problem: if perf dumps data after a long period after it starts, non-sample events may lost, which makes following 'perf report' unable to identify proc name and mmap layout. For example: # perf record -m 4 -e raw_syscalls:* -g --overwrite --switch-output \ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null send SIGUSR2 after dd runs long enough. The resuling perf.data lost correct comm and mmap events: # perf script -i perf.data.2016061522374354 perf 24478 [004] 2581325.601789: raw_syscalls:sys_exit: NR 0 = 512 ^^^^ Should be 'dd' 27b2e8 syscall_slow_exit_work+0xfe2000e3 (/lib/modules/4.6.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) 203cc7 do_syscall_64+0xfe200117 (/lib/modules/4.6.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) b18d83 return_from_SYSCALL_64+0xfe200000 (/lib/modules/4.6.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) 7f47c417edf0 [unknown] ([unknown]) ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Fail to unwind This patch provides a '--tail-synthesize' option, allows perf to collect system status when finalizing output file. In resuling output file, the non-sample events reflect system status when dumping data. After this patch: # perf record -m 4 -e raw_syscalls:* -g --overwrite --switch-output --tail-synthesize \ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null # perf script -i perf.data.2016061600544998 dd 27364 [004] 2583244.994464: raw_syscalls:sys_enter: NR 1 (1, ... ^^ Correct comm 203a18 syscall_trace_enter_phase2+0xfe2001a8 ([kernel.kallsyms]) 203aa5 syscall_trace_enter+0xfe200055 ([kernel.kallsyms]) 203caa do_syscall_64+0xfe2000fa ([kernel.kallsyms]) b18d83 return_from_SYSCALL_64+0xfe200000 ([kernel.kallsyms]) d8e50 __GI___libc_write+0xffff01d9639f4010 (/tmp/oxygen_root-w00229757/lib64/libc-2.18.so) ^^^^^ Correct unwind This option doesn't aim to solve this problem completely. If a process terminates before SIGUSR2, we still lost its COMM and MMAP events. For example, we can't unwind correctly from the final perf.data we get from the previous example, because when perf collects the final output file (when we press C-c), 'dd' has been terminated so its '/proc/<pid>/mmap' becomes empty. However, this is a cheaper choice. To completely solve this problem we need to continously output non-sample events. To satisify the requirement of daemonization, we need to merge them periodically. It is possible but requires much more code and cycles. Automatically select --tail-synthesize when --overwrite is provided.

perf record: Add ability to name registers to record This patch modifies the -I/--int-regs option to enablepassing the name of the registers to sample on interrupt. Registers can be specified by their symbolic names. For instance on x86, --intr-regs=ax,si. The motivation is to reduce the size of the perf.data file and the overhead of sampling by only collecting the registers useful to a specific analysis. For instance, for value profiling, sampling only the registers used to passed arguements to functions. With no parameter, the --intr-regs still records all possible registers based on the architecture. To name registers, it is necessary to use the long form of the option, i.e., --intr-regs: $ perf record --intr-regs=si,di,r8,r9 ..... To record any possible registers: $ perf record -I ..... $ perf report --intr-regs ... To display the register, one can use perf report -D To list the available registers: $ perf record --intr-regs=\? available registers: AX BX CX DX SI DI BP SP IP FLAGS CS SS R8 R9 R10 R11 R12 R13 R14 R15 Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1441039273-16260-4-git-send-email-eranian@google.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

perf auxtrace: Add support for AUX area recording Add support for reading from the AUX area tracing mmap and synthesizing AUX area tracing events. This patch introduces an abstraction for recording AUX area data. Recording is initialized by auxtrace_record__init() which is a weak function to be implemented by the architecture to provide recording callbacks. Recording is mainly handled by auxtrace_mmap__read() and perf_event__synthesize_auxtrace() but there are callbacks for miscellaneous needs including validating and processing user options, populating private data in auxtrace_info_event, and freeing the structure when finished.

This is useful to skip measuring the startup phase of the program, which is often very different from the main workload.

perf evlist: Make event_copy local to mmaps I am getting segfaults *after* the time sorting of perf samples where the event type is off the charts: (gdb) bt \#0 0x0807b1b2 in hists__inc_nr_events (hists=0x80a99c4, type=1163281902) at util/hist.c:1225 \#1 0x08070795 in perf_session_deliver_event (session=0x80a9b90, event=0xf7a6aff8, sample=0xffffc318, tool=0xffffc520, file_offset=0) at util/session.c:884 \#2 0x0806f9b9 in flush_sample_queue (s=0x80a9b90, tool=0xffffc520) at util/session.c:555 \#3 0x0806fc53 in process_finished_round (tool=0xffffc520, event=0x0, session=0x80a9b90) at util/session.c:645 This is bizarre because the event has already been processed once -- before it was added to the samples queue -- and the event was found to be sane at that time. There seem to be 2 causes: 1. perf_evlist__mmap_read updates the read location even though there are outstanding references to events sitting in the mmap buffers via the ordered samples queue. 2. There is a single evlist->event_copy for all evlist entries. event_copy is used to handle an event wrapping at the mmap buffer boundary. This patch addresses the second problem - making event_copy local to each perf_mmap. With this change my highly repeatable use case no longer fails. The first problem is much more complicated and will be the subject of a future patch.

perf: Make perf build for x86 with UAPI disintegration applied Make perf build for x86 once the UAPI disintegration patches for that arch have been applied by adding the appropriate -I flags - in the right order - and then converting some #includes that use ../.. notation to find main kernel headerfiles to use <asm/foo.h> and <linux/foo.h> instead. Note that -Iarch/foo/include/uapi is present _before_ -Iarch/foo/include. This makes sure we get the userspace version of the pt_regs struct. Ideally, we wouldn't have the latter -I flag at all, but unfortunately we want asm/svm.h and asm/vmx.h in builtin-kvm.c and these aren't part of the UAPI - at least not for x86. I wonder if the bits outside of the __KERNEL__ guards *should* be transferred there. I note also that perf seems to do its dependency handling manually by listing all the header files it might want to use in LIB_H in the Makefile. Can this be changed to use -MD? Note that to do make this work, we need to export and UAPI disintegrate linux/hw_breakpoint.h, which I think should've been exported previously so that perf can access the bits. We have to do this in the same patch to maintain bisectability. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

perf tests: Add framework for automated perf_event_attr tests The idea is run perf session with kidnapping sys_perf_event_open function. For each sys_perf_event_open call we store the perf_event_attr data to the file to be checked later against what we expect.

perf tools: Add a global variable "const char *input_name" Currently many perf commands annotate/evlist/report/script/lock etc all support "-i" option to chose a specific perf data, and all of them create a local "input_name" to save the file name for that perf data. Since most of these commands need it, we can add a global variable for it, also it can some other benefits: 1. When calling script browser inside hists/annotation browser, it needs to know the perf data file name to run that script. 2. For further feature like runtime switching to another perf data file, this variable can also help.

perf tools: Support for DWARF mode callchain This patch enables perf to use the DWARF unwind code. It extends the perf record '-g' option with following arguments: 'fp' - provides framepointer based user stack backtrace 'dwarf[,size]' - provides DWARF (libunwind) based user stack backtrace. The size specifies the size of the user stack dump. If omitted it is 8192 by default. If libunwind is found during the perf build, then the 'dwarf' argument becomes available for record command. The 'fp' stays as default option in any case. Examples: (perf compiled with libunwind) perf record -g dwarf ls - provides dwarf unwind with 8192 as stack dump size perf record -g dwarf,4096 ls - provides dwarf unwind with 4096 as stack dump size perf record -g -- ls perf record -g fp ls - provides frame pointer unwind Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Original-patch-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: "Frank Ch.

perf record: Add ability to record event period The problem is that when SAMPLE_PERIOD is not set, the kernel generates a number of samples in proportion to an event's period. Number of these samples may be too big and the kernel throttles all samples above a defined limit. E.g.: I want to trace when a process sleeps. I created a process which sleeps for 1ms and for 4ms. perf got 100 events in both cases. swapper 0 [000] 1141.371830: sched_stat_sleep: comm=foo pid=1801 delay=1386750 [ns] swapper 0 [000] 1141.369444: sched_stat_sleep: comm=foo pid=1801 delay=4499585 [ns] In the first case a kernel want to send 4499585 events and in the second case it wants to send 1386750 events. perf-reports shows that process sleeps in both places equal time. Instead of this we can get only one sample with an attribute period. As result we have less data transferring between kernel and user-space and we avoid throttling of samples. The patch "events: Don't divide events if it has field period" added a kernel part of this functionality.

perf tools: Make perf.data more self-descriptive (v8) 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.

perf, ARM: Modify kuser rmb() call to compile for Thumb-2 The Thumb-2 instruction set does not provide an encoding for sub pc, r0, #95 as present in the rmb() definition used by perf. This results in compilation failure when using a compiler targetting an instruction set other than ARM. This patch redefines rmb() for ARM by casting the address of the kuser helper to a function pointer, therefore getting the compiler to take care of making the call. Patch taken against tip/master.

perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events! In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

perf_counter tools: Define and use our own u64, s64 etc. definitions On 64-bit powerpc, __u64 is defined to be unsigned long rather than unsigned long long. This causes compiler warnings every time we print a __u64 value with %Lx. Rather than changing __u64, we define our own u64 to be unsigned long long on all architectures, and similarly s64 as signed long long. For consistency we also define u32, s32, u16, s16, u8 and s8. These definitions are put in a new header, types.h, because these definitions are needed in util/string.h and util/symbol.h. The main change here is the mechanical change of __[us]{64,32,16,8} to remove the "__". The other changes are: * Create types.h * Include types.h in perf.h, util/string.h and util/symbol.h * Add types.h to the LIB_H definition in Makefile * Added (u64) casts in process_overflow_event() and print_sym_table() to kill two remaining warnings.

perf_counter: Add forward/backward attribute ABI compatibility Provide for means of extending the perf_counter_attr in a 'natural' way. We allow growing the structure by appending fields at the end by specifying the full structure size inside it. When a new kernel sees a smaller (old) structure, it will 0 pad the tail. When an old kernel sees a larger (new) structure, it will verify the tail consists of 0s, otherwise fail. If we fail due to a size-mismatch, we return -E2BIG and write the kernel's native attribe size back into the provided structure. Furthermore, add some attribute verification, so that we'll fail counter creation when unknown bits are present (PERF_SAMPLE, PERF_FORMAT, or in the __reserved fields). (This ABI detail is introduced while keeping the existing syscall ABI.)
