* perf intel-pt: Add guest_code supportAdrian Hunter2022-05-231-0/+70
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A common case for KVM test programs is that the test program acts as the hypervisor, creating, running and destroying the virtual machine, and providing the guest object code from its own object code. In this case, the VM is not running an OS, but only the functions loaded into it by the hypervisor test program, and conveniently, loaded at the same virtual addresses. To support that, a new option "--guest-code" has been added in previous patches. In this patch, add support also to Intel PT. In particular, ensure guest_code thread is set up before attempting to walk object code or synthesize samples.

* perf intel-pt: Add support for emulated ptwriteAdrian Hunter2022-05-171-0/+88
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ptwrite is an Intel x86 instruction that writes arbitrary values into an Intel PT trace. It is not supported on all hardware, so provide an alternative that makes use of TNT packets to convey the payload data. TNT packets encode Taken/Not-taken conditional branch information, so taking branches based on the payload value will encode the value into the TNT packet.

* perf dlfilter: Add dlfilter-show-cyclesAdrian Hunter2021-10-271-1/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new dlfilter to show cycles. Cycle counts are accumulated per CPU (or per thread if CPU is not recorded) from IPC information, and printed together with the change since the last print, at the start of each line. Separate counts are kept for branches, instructions or other events. Note also, the itrace A option can be useful to provide higher granularity cycle information.

* perf intel-pt: Support itrace A option to approximate IPCAdrian Hunter2021-10-271-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Normally, for cycle-acccurate mode, IPC values are an exact number of instructions and cycles. Due to the granularity of timestamps, that happens only when a CYC packet correlates to the event. Support the itrace 'A' option, to use instead, the number of cycles associated with the current timestamp. This provides IPC information for every change of timestamp, but at the expense of accuracy. Due to the granularity of timestamps, the actual number of cycles increases even though the cycles reported does not. The number of instructions is known, but if IPC is reported, cycles can be too low and so IPC is too high. Note that inaccuracy decreases as the period of sampling increases i.e. if the number of cycles is too low by a small amount, that becomes less significant if the number of cycles is large. Furthermore, it can be used in conjunction with dlfilter-show-cycles.so to provide higher granularity cycle information.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Originally, software only supported redirecting at most one PEBS event to Intel PT (PEBS-via-PT) because it was not able to differentiate one event from another.

* perf intel-pt: Add PSB eventsAdrian Hunter2021-02-181-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Emitting a PSB+ can cause a CPU a slight delay. When doing timing analysis of code with Intel PT, it is useful to know if a timing bubble was caused by Intel PT or not. Add reporting of PSB events via perf script. PSB events are printed with the existing itrace 'p' option which also prints power and frequency changes. The PSB event contains the trace offset at which the PSB occurs, to allow easy reference back to the PSB+ packets. The PSB event timestamp is always the timestamp from the PSB+ TSC packet, and the ip is always the address from the PSB+ FUP packet. The code changes are non-trivial because the decoder must walk to the PSB+ FUP address before outputting the PSB event. Example: $ perf record -e intel_pt/cyc,psb_period=0/u uname Linux [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.046 MB perf.data ] $ perf script --itrace=p --ns perf 17981 [006] 25617.510820383: psb: psb offs: 0 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) perf 17981 [006] 25617.510820383: cbr: cbr: 42 freq: 4219 MHz (156%) 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) uname 17981 [006] 25617.510889753: psb: psb offs: 0xb50 7f78c12a212e __GI___tunables_init+0xee (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.510899162: psb: psb offs: 0x12d0 7f78c128af1c dl_main+0x93c (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.510939242: psb: psb offs: 0x1a50 7f78c128eefc _dl_map_object_from_fd+0x13c (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.510981274: psb: psb offs: 0x21c8 7f78c1296307 _dl_relocate_object+0x927 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.510993034: psb: psb offs: 0x2948 7f78c12940e4 _dl_lookup_symbol_x+0x14 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511003871: psb: psb offs: 0x30c8 7f78c12937b3 do_lookup_x+0x2f3 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511019854: psb: psb offs: 0x3850 7f78c1295eed _dl_relocate_object+0x50d (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511029015: psb: psb offs: 0x4390 7f78c12a855a strcmp+0xf6a (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511064876: psb: psb offs: 0x4b10 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511080762: psb: psb offs: 0x5290 7f78c11db53d _dl_addr+0x13d (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511086035: psb: psb offs: 0x5a08 7f78c11db538 _dl_addr+0x138 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511091381: psb: psb offs: 0x6190 7f78c11db534 _dl_addr+0x134 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511096681: psb: psb offs: 0x6910 7f78c11db4c3 _dl_addr+0xc3 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511119520: psb: psb offs: 0x7090 7f78c10ada5e _nl_intern_locale_data+0x12e (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511126584: psb: psb offs: 0x7818 7f78c10ada50 _nl_intern_locale_data+0x120 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511132775: psb: psb offs: 0x8358 7f78c10c20c0 getenv+0xa0 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511134598: psb: psb offs: 0x8ad0 7f78c10ada09 _nl_intern_locale_data+0xd9 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511135685: psb: psb offs: 0x9258 7f78c10ada50 _nl_intern_locale_data+0x120 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511138322: psb: psb offs: 0x99d0 7f78c11fffd9 __strncmp_avx2+0x39 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.31.so) uname 17981 [006] 25617.511158907: psb: psb offs: 0xa150 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210205175350.23817-5-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A single q option decodes ip from only FUP/TIP packets.
