7 years agoperf mmap: Don't discard prev in backward mode

perf mmap: Don't discard prev in backward mode

'perf record' can switch its output data file. The new output should
only store the data after switching. However, in overwrite backward
mode, the new output still can have data from before switching. That
also brings extra overhead.

At the end of mmap_read(), the position of the processed ring buffer is
saved in md->prev. Next mmap_read should be end in md->prev if it is not
overwriten. That avoids processing duplicate data.  However, md->prev is
discarded. So next the mmap_read() has to process whole valid ring
buffer, which probably includes old processed data.

Avoid calling backward_rb_find_range() when md->prev is still
available.

7 years agoperf mmap: Fix perf backward recording

perf mmap: Fix perf backward recording

'perf record' backward recording doesn't work as we expected: it never
overwrites when ring buffer gets full.

Test:

Run a busy python printing task background like this:

 while True:
     print 123

send SIGUSR2 to perf to capture snapshot, then:

Timestamps never change, but my background task is a dead loop, can
easily overwhelm the ring buffer.

This patch fixes it by forcing unsetting PROT_WRITE for a backward ring
buffer, so all backward ring buffers become overwrite ring buffers.

perf report: Set browser mode right before setup_browser()

There are codes that print messages to the screen between assignment of
the use_browser variable and setup_browser().

But since the GUI browser is not initialized during that period, all
messages fail to show if the user passed the --gtk option to perf as GTK

Changes between chip revisions are usually minor bug fixes and usually
do not affect the operation of the performance monitoring hardware.

The original mapfile.csv matching requires enumerating every possible

patches is inconvenient.

Using regular expressions rather than exactly string matching of the
entire cpuid string allows developers to write mapfile.csv files that do
not require patches and recompiles for each of these minor version
changes.  If special cases need to be made for some particular versions,
they can be placed earlier in the mapfile.csv file before the more
general matches.

perf annotate: Fix objdump comment parsing for Intel mov dissassembly

The command 'perf annotate' parses the output of objdump and also
investigates the comments produced by objdump. For example the
output of objdump produces (on x86):

23eee:  4c 8b 3d 13 01 21 00 mov 0x210113(%rip),%r15
                                # 234008 <stderr@@GLIBC_2.2.5+0x9a8>

and the function mov__parse() is called to investigate the complete
line. Mov__parse() breaks this line into several parts and finally
calls function comment__symbol() to parse the data after the comment
character '#'. Comment__symbol() expects a hexadecimal address followed
by a symbol in '<' and '>' brackets.

However the 2nd parameter given to function comment__symbol()
always points to the comment character '#'. The address parsing
always returns 0 because the character '#' is not a digit and
strtoull() fails without being noticed.

Fix this by advancing the second parameter to function comment__symbol()
by one byte before invocation and add an error check after strtoull()
has been called.

7 years agoperf annotate: Fix unnecessary memory allocation for s390x
Thomas Richter [Fri, 24 Nov 2017 09:46:37 +0000 (10:46 +0100)]
perf annotate: Fix unnecessary memory allocation for s390x

This patch fixes a bug introduced with commit d9f8dfa9baf9 ("perf
annotate s390: Implement jump types for perf annotate").

'perf annotate' displays annotated assembler output by reading output of
command objdump and parsing the disassembled lines. For each shown
mnemonic this function sequence is executed:

  disasm_line__new()
  |
  +--> disasm_line__init_ins()
       |
       +--> ins__find()
            |
            +--> arch->associate_instruction_ops()

The s390x specific function assigned to function pointer
associate_instruction_ops refers to function s390__associate_ins_ops().

This function checks for supported mnemonics and assigns a NULL pointer
to unsupported mnemonics.  However even the NULL pointer is added to the
architecture dependend instruction array.

This leads to an extremely large architecture instruction array
(due to array resize logic in function arch__grow_instructions()).

Depending on the objdump output being parsed the array can end up
with several ten-thousand elements.

This patch checks if a mnemonic is supported and only adds supported
ones into the architecture instruction array. The array does not contain
elements with NULL pointers anymore.

Before the patch (With some debug printf output):

[root@s35lp76 perf]# time ./perf annotate --stdio > /tmp/xxxbb

real 8m49.679s
user 7m13.008s
sys 0m1.649s
[root@s35lp76 perf]# fgrep '__ins__find sorted:1 nr_instructions:'
/tmp/xxxbb | tail -1
__ins__find sorted:1 nr_instructions:87433 ins:0x341583c0
[root@s35lp76 perf]#

The number of different s390x branch/jump/call/return instructions
entered into the array is 87433.

After the patch (With some printf debug output:)

[root@s35lp76 perf]# time ./perf annotate --stdio > /tmp/xxxaa

real 1m24.553s
user 0m0.587s

[root@s35lp76 perf]#

The number of different s390x branch/jump/call/return instructions

perf bench futex: Sync waker threads

Waker threads in the futex wake-parallel benchmark are started by a loop
using pthread_create().  However, there is no synchronization for when
the waker threads wake the waiting threads.  Comparison of the waker
threads' measurement timestamps show they are not all running
concurrently because older waker threads finish their task before newer
waker threads even start.

This patch uses a barrier to better synchronize the waker threads.

perf script: Allow computing 'perf stat' style metrics

Add support for computing 'perf stat' style metrics in 'perf script'.

When using leader sampling we can get metrics for each sampling period
by computing formulas over the values of the different group members.

This allows things like fine grained IPC tracking through sampling, much
more fine grained than with 'perf stat'.

The metric is still averaged over the sampling period, it is not just
for the sampling point.

This patch adds a new metric output field for 'perf script' that uses
the existing 'perf stat' metrics infrastructure to compute any metrics
supported by 'perf stat'.

For example to sample IPC:

Extra explanation about the use of the term 'averaging', from Andi in the
thread in the Link: tag below:

<quote Andi>
The current samples contains the sum of event counts for a sampling period.

EventA-1           EventA-2                EventA-3      EventA-4
EventB-1     EventB-2                             EventC-3

                         gap with no events                overflow
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
period-start                                             period-end
^                                                                 ^
|                                                                 |
previous sample                                      current sample

So EventA = 4 and EventB = 3 at the sample point

I generate a metric, let's say EventA / EventB. It applies to the whole period.

But the metric is over a longer time which does not have the same behavior. For
example the gap above doesn't have any events, while they are clustered at the
beginning and end of the sample period.

But we're summing everything together. The metric doesn't know that the gap is
different than the busy period.

That's what I'm trying to express with averaging.

7 years agoperf test shell: Fix test case probe libc's inet_pton on s390x

perf test shell: Fix test case probe libc's inet_pton on s390x

The 'perf test' case "probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping"
fails on s390x. The reason is the 'realpath /lib64/ld*.so.* | uniq' line
which returns 2 libraries:

        root@s35lp76 shell]# realpath /lib64/ld*.so.* | uniq
        /usr/lib64/ld-2.26.so
        /usr/lib64/ld_pre_smc.so.1.0.1
        [root@s35lp76 shell]

This output makes the "perf probe" command lines invalid.

Use ldd tool to find out the libraries required by "bash" and check if
symbol "inet_pton" is part of the "libc" library.  Some distros do not
have a /lib64 directory.

I have also added a check for the existence of an IPv6 network interface
before it is being used.

Committer changes:

We can't really use ldd for libc, as in some systems, such as x86_64, it
has hardlinks and then ldd sees one and the kernel the other, so grep
for libc in /proc/self/maps to get the one we'll receive from
PERF_RECORD_MMAP.

Thomas checked this change and acked it.

returns an error.

Unfortunately this breaks overriding these periods with -c or -F,
because the alias terms look like they are user specified to the
internal parser, and user specified event qualifiers override the

Track that they are coming from aliases by adding a "weak" state to the
term. Any weak terms don't override command line options.

7 years agoperf evlist: Set the correct idx when adding dummy events

perf evlist: Set the correct idx when adding dummy events

The evsel->idx field is used mainly to access the right bucket in
per-event arrays such as the annotation ones, but also to set
evsel->tracking, that in turn will decide what of the events will ask
for PERF_RECORD_{MMAP,COMM,EXEC} to be generated, i.e. which
perf_event_attr will have its mmap, etc fields set.

When we were adding the "dummy" event using perf_evlist__add_dummy() we
were not setting it correctly, which could result in multiple tracking
events.

Now that I'll try using a dummy event to be the tracking one when using
'perf record --delay', i.e. when we process the --delay
setting we may already have the evlist set up, like with:

  perf record -e cycles,instructions --delay 1000 ./workload

We will need to add a "dummy" event, then reset evsel->tracking for the
first event, "cycles", and set it instead to the dummy one, and also
setting its attr.enable_on_exec, so that we get the PERF_RECORD_MMAP,
etc metadata events while waiting to enable the explicitely requested
events, so lets get this straight and set the right evsel->idx.

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.15-20171117' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

- Optimize sample parsing for ordering events, where we don't need to parse
  all the PERF_SAMPLE_ bits, just the ones leading to the timestamp needed
  to reorder events (Jiri Olsa)

- Use a dummy event to ask for PERF_RECORD_{MMAP,COMM,EXEC} with
  'perf record --delay', when the events asked by the user will only be
  enabled after the workload is started and the requested delay passes,
  so we need to add the dummy event and have it .enabled_on_exec. This
  then allows us to resolve symbols for the DSO executable MMAPs setup
  while we wait for the delay (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Synchronize kcmp.h and prctl.h ABI headers wrt SPDX tags (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Generalize the annotation code to support other source information
  besides objdump/DWARF obtained ones, starting with python scripts,
  that will is slated to be merged soon (Jiri Olsa)

- Advance the source code lines to right after the column with the
  address in asm lines (Jiri Olsa)

- Fix terminal dimensions resizing signal handling in 'perf top --stdio' (Jiri Olsa)

- Improve error messages for PMU events (Kim Phillips)

- Fix 'perf record' -c/-F options for cpu event aliases (Andi Kleen)

- Enable type checking for perf_evsel_config_term types (Andi Kleen)

- Call machine__exit() at 'perf trace' exit, so as to remove temporary
  files related to VDSO (Andrei Vagin)

- Add "reject" option to parse-events.l, fixing the build with newer
  flex releases. Noticed with flex 2.6.4 on Alpine Linux 3.6 and Edge (Jiri Olsa)

- Document some missing perf.data headers (Andi Kleen)

- Allow printing period for non freq mod groups (Andi Kleen)

- Do not warn the user about kernel.kptr_restrict when not sampling the
  kernel (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fix bug in 'perf help' introduced during conversion to strstart() (Namhyung Kim)

- Do not truncate ASM instruction mnemonics at 6 characters in the annotation
  output, PowerPC has long ones (Ravi Bangoria)

- Document some missing command line options (Sihyeon Jang)

- Update POWER9 vendor event tables (Sukadev Bhattiprolu)

- Fix 'perf test' shell entries on s390x, where the 'openat' syscall
  is used instead of 'open' in one of the tests and

- No need to use overwrite mmap mode in 'perf test', those tests
  do not generate massive amount of events to fill the ring buffer (Wang Nan)

- Add missing command line options (mostly --force/-f) to the man pages (Sihyeon Jang)

perf tools: Optimize sample parsing for ordered events

Currently when using ordered events we parse the sample twice (the
perf_evlist__parse_sample function). Once before we queue the sample for
sorting:

  perf_session__process_event
    perf_evlist__parse_sample(sample)
    perf_session__queue_event(sample.time)

And then when we deliver the sorted sample:

  ordered_events__deliver_event
    perf_evlist__parse_sample
    perf_session__deliver_event

We can skip the initial full sample parsing by using
perf_evlist__parse_sample_timestamp function, which got introduced
earlier. The new path looks like:

  perf_session__process_event
    perf_evlist__parse_sample_timestamp
    perf_session__queue_event

  ordered_events__deliver_event
    perf_session__deliver_event
      perf_evlist__parse_sample

It saves some instructions and is slightly faster:

Before:
 Performance counter stats for './perf.old report --stdio' (5 runs):

    64,396,007,225      cycles:u                                                      ( +-  0.97% )

7 years agoperf test shell: Fix test case probe libc's inet_pton on s390x

perf test shell: Fix test case probe libc's inet_pton on s390x

The 'perf test' case "probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping"
fails on s390x. The reason is the 'realpath /lib64/ld*.so.* | uniq' line
which returns 2 libraries:

        root@s35lp76 shell]# realpath /lib64/ld*.so.* | uniq
        /usr/lib64/ld-2.26.so
        /usr/lib64/ld_pre_smc.so.1.0.1
        [root@s35lp76 shell]

This output makes the "perf probe" command lines invalid.

Use ldd tool to find out the libraries required by "bash" and check if
symbol "inet_pton" is part of the "libc" library.  Some distros do not
have a /lib64 directory.

I have also added a check for the existence of an IPv6 network interface
before it is being used.

Committer changes:

We can't really use ldd for libc, as in some systems, such as x86_64, it
has hardlinks and then ldd sees one and the kernel the other, so grep
for libc in /proc/self/maps to get the one we'll receive from
PERF_RECORD_MMAP.

Thomas checked this change and acked it.

the 'openat' system call to open the file named on the command line:

There is no 'open' system call for file '/tmp/abc'. Instead the 'openat'
system call is used:

[root@s35lp76 perf]# strace touch /tmp/abc

On s390x the 'egrep' command does not find a matching pattern and
returns an error.

Fix this for s390x create a platform dependent command line to enable
the 'perf probe' call to listen to the 'openat' system call and get the
expected output.
