H A Dhw_breakpoint.cdiff 1879445d Mon Mar 28 00:41:30 MDT 2016 Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> perf/core: Set event's default ::overflow_handler()

Set a default event->overflow_handler in perf_event_alloc() so don't
need to check event->overflow_handler in __perf_event_overflow().
Following commits can give a different default overflow_handler.

Initial idea comes from Peter:

http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20130708121557.GA17211@twins.programming.kicks-ass.net

Since the default value of event->overflow_handler is not NULL, existing
'if (!overflow_handler)' checks need to be changed.

is_default_overflow_handler() is introduced for this.

No extra performance overhead is introduced into the hot path because in the
original code we still need to read this handler from memory. A conditional
branch is avoided so actually we remove some instructions.

Add new ioctl() to pause/resume ring-buffer output.

In some situations we want to read from the ring-buffer only when we
ensure nothing can write to the ring-buffer during reading. Without
this patch we have to turn off all events attached to this ring-buffer
to achieve this.

This patch is a prerequisite to enable overwrite support for the
perf ring-buffer support. Following commits will introduce new methods
support reading from overwrite ring buffer. Before reading, caller
must ensure the ring buffer is frozen, or the reading is unreliable.

H A Dring_buffer.cdiff d1b26c70 Mon Mar 28 00:41:31 MDT 2016 Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> perf/ring_buffer: Prepare writing into the ring-buffer from the end

Convert perf_output_begin() to __perf_output_begin() and make the later
function able to write records from the end of the ring-buffer.

Following commits will utilize the 'backward' flag.

This is the core patch to support writing to the ring-buffer backwards,
which will be introduced by upcoming patches to support reading from
overwritable ring-buffers.

In theory, this patch should not introduce any extra performance
overhead since we use always_inline, but it does not hurt to double
check that assumption:

When CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is disabled, the output object is nearly
identical to original one. See:

http://lkml.kernel.org/g/56F52E83.70409@huawei.com

When CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is enabled, the resuling object file becomes
smaller:

$ size kernel/events/ring_buffer.o*
text data bss dec hex filename
4641 4 8 4653 122d kernel/events/ring_buffer.o.old
4545 4 8 4557 11cd kernel/events/ring_buffer.o.new

Performance testing results:

Calling 3000000 times of 'close(-1)', use gettimeofday() to check
duration. Use 'perf record -o /dev/null -e raw_syscalls:*' to capture
system calls. In ns.

Testing environment:

CPU : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60GHz
Kernel : v4.5.0

MEAN STDVAR
BASE 800214.950 2853.083
PRE 2253846.700 9997.014
POST 2257495.540 8516.293

Where 'BASE' is pure performance without capturing. 'PRE' is test
result of pure 'v4.5.0' kernel. 'POST' is test result after this
patch.

Considering the stdvar, this patch doesn't hurt performance, within
noise margin.
