* perf tools: Fix dynamic libbpf linkJiri Olsa2021-05-191-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit ad1237c30d975535a669746496cbed136aa5a045 ] Justin reported broken build with LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1. When linking libbpf dynamically we need to use perf's hashmap object, because it's not exported in libbpf.so (only in libbpf.a). Following build is now passing: $ make LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 BUILD: Doing 'make -j8' parallel build ... $ ldd perf | grep libbpf libbpf.so.0 => /lib64/libbpf.so.0 (0x00007fa7630db000) Fixes: eee19501926d ("perf tools: Grab a copy of libbpf's hashmap") Reported-by: Justin M.

* perf streams: Introduce branch history "streams"Jin Yao2020-10-141-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We define a stream as the branch history which is aggregated by the branch records from perf samples. For example, the callchains aggregated from the branch records are considered as streams. By browsing the hot stream, we can understand the hot code path. Now we only support the callchain for stream. For measuring the hot level for a stream, we use the callchain_node->hit, higher is hotter. There may be many callchains sampled so we only focus on the top N hottest callchains. N is a user defined parameter or predefined default value (nr_streams_max). This patch creates an evsel_streams array per event, and saves the top N hottest streams in a stream array. So now we can get the per-event top N hottest streams.

* perf tools: Add optional support for libpfm4Stephane Eranian2020-05-291-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch links perf with the libpfm4 library if it is available and LIBPFM4 is passed to the build. The libpfm4 library contains hardware event tables for all processors supported by perf_events. It is a helper library that helps convert from a symbolic event name to the event encoding required by the underlying kernel interface. This library is open-source and available from: http://perfmon2.sf.net. With this patch, it is possible to specify full hardware events by name. Hardware filters are also supported. Events must be specified via the --pfm-events and not -e option. Both options are active at the same time and it is possible to mix and match: $ perf stat --pfm-events inst_retired:any_p:c=1:i -e cycles .... One needs to explicitely ask for its inclusion by using the LIBPFM4 make command line option, ie its opt-in rather than opt-out of feature detection and build support.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow use of hashmap in perf. Modify perf's check-headers.sh script to check that the files are kept in sync, in the same way kernel headers are checked. This will warn if they are out of sync at the start of a perf build. Committer note: This starts out of synch as a fix went thru the bpf tree, namely the one removing the needless libbpf_internal.h include in hashmap.h. There is also another change related to __WORDSIZE, that as is in tools/lib/bpf/hashmap.h causes the tools/perf/ build to fail in systems such as Alpine Linus, that uses the Musl libc, so we need an alternative way of having __WORDSIZE available, use the one used by tools/include/linux/bitops.h, that builds in all the systems I have build containers for. These differences will be resolved at some point, so keep the warning in check-headers.sh as a reminder.

* perf affinity: Add infrastructure to save/restore affinityAndi Kleen2019-11-281-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel perf subsystem has to IPI to the target CPU for many operations. On systems with many CPUs and when managing many events the overhead can be dominated by lots of IPIs. An alternative is to set up CPU affinity in the perf tool, then set up all the events for that CPU, and then move on to the next CPU. Add some affinity management infrastructure to enable such a model. Used in followon patches. Committer notes: Use zfree() in some places, add missing stdbool.h header, some minor coding style changes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This came from the kernel lib/argv_split.c, so move it to tools/lib/argv_split.c, to get it closer to the kernel structure. We need to audit the usage of argv_split() to figure out if it is really necessary to do have one allocation per argv[] entry, looking at one of its users I guess that is not the case and we probably are even leaking those allocations by not using argv_free() judiciously, for later. With this we further remove stuff from tools/perf/util/, reducing the perf specific codebase and encouraging other tools/ code to use these routines so as to keep the style and constructs used with the kernel.

* tools perf: Move from sane_ctype.h obtained from git to the Linux's originalArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2019-06-251-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We got the sane_ctype.h headers from git and kept using it so far, but since that code originally came from the kernel sources to the git sources, perhaps its better to just use the one in the kernel, so that we can leverage tools/perf/check_headers.sh to be notified when our copy gets out of sync, i.e. when fixes or goodies are added to the code we've copied. This will help with things like tools/lib/string.c where we want to have more things in common with the kernel, such as strim(), skip_spaces(), etc so as to go on removing the things that we have in tools/perf/util/ and instead using the code in the kernel, indirectly and removing things like EXPORT_SYMBOL(), etc, getting notified when fixes and improvements are made to the original code. Hopefully this also should help with reducing the difference of code hosted in tools/ to the one in the kernel proper.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At some point I'll suggest moving this to libbpf, for now I'll experiment with ways to dump BPF maps set by events in 'perf trace', starting with a very basic dumper for the current very limited needs of the augmented_raw_syscalls code: dumping booleans. Having functions that apply to the map keys and values and do table lookup in things like syscall id to string tables should come next.

* perf tools: Handle PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENTSong Liu2019-01-211-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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'.

Committer notes: Added a init function that sets up a evlist function pointer to avoid repeated tests on evlist->env and calls to perf_env__name() that involves normalizing, etc, for each PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE. Removed needless __maybe_unused from the trace_event_raw() prototype in session.h, move it to be an static function in evlist.

Output before: [root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf report -D -i perf.data.auxtrace 0x128 [0x10]: failed to process type: 70 Error: failed to process sample 0x128 [0x10]: event: 70 . . ... raw event: size 16 bytes . 0000: 00 00 00 46 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ...F............ 0x128 [0x10]: PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO type: 0 [root@s35lp76 perf]# Output after: # ./perf report -D -i perf.data.auxtrace |fgrep PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE 0 0 0x128 [0x10]: PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO type: 5 0 0 0x25a66 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE size: 0x40000 offset: 0 ref: 0 idx: 4 tid: -1 cpu: 4 .... Additional notes about the underlying hardware and software implementation, provided by Hendrik Brueckner (see Link: below). ============================================================================= The CPU-Measurement Facility (CPU-MF) provides a set of functions to obtain performance information on the mainframe. Basically, it was introduced with System z10 years ago for the z/Architecture, that means, 64-bit. For Linux, there are two facilities of interest, counter facility and sampling facility. The counter facility provides hardware counters for instructions, cycles, crypto-activities, and many more. The sampling facility is a hardware sampler that when started will write samples at a particular interval into a sampling buffer. At some point, for example, if a sample block is full, it generates an interrupt to collect samples (while the sampler continues to run). Few years ago, I started to provide the a perf PMU to use the counter and sampling facilities. Recently, the device driver was updated to also "export" the sampling buffer into the AUX area. Thomas now completed the related perf work to interpret and process these AUX data. If people are more interested in the sampling facility, they can have a look into: - The Load-Program-Parameter and the CPU-Measurement Facilities, SA23-2260-05 http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg26fcd1cc32246f4c8852574ce0044734a and to learn how-to use it for Linux on Z, have look at chapter 54, "Using the CPU-measurement facilities" in the: - Device Drivers, Features, and Commands, SC33-8411-34 http://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/dw/linux390/docu/l416dd34.pdf ============================================================================= Signed-off-by: Thomas Richter <tmricht@linux.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Hendrik Brueckner <brueckner@linux.ibm.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180803100758.GA28475@linux.ibm.com Cc: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180802074622.13641-2-tmricht@linux.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
