* Revert "perf: Disable PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 support"Don Zickus2014-06-091-14/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 3090ffb5a2515990182f3f55b0688a7817325488. Re-enable the mmap2 interface as we will have a user soon. Since things have changed since perf disabled mmap2, small tweaks to the revert had to be done: o commit 9d4ecc88 forced (n!=8) to become (n<7) o a new libunwind test needed updating to use mmap2 interface Signed-off-by: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1401461382-209586-1-git-send-email-dzickus@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>

* perf tools: Use tid for finding threadNamhyung Kim2014-05-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I believe that passing pid (instead of tid) as the 3rd arg of the machine__find*_thread() was to find a main thread so that it can search proper map group for symbols. However with the map sharing patch applied, it now can do it in any thread. It fixes a bug when each thread has different name, it only reports a main thread for samples in other threads.

* perf tools: Allocate thread map_groups's dynamicallyArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2014-04-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Moving towards sharing map groups within a process threads. Because of this we need the map groups to be dynamically allocated. No other functional change is intended in here. Based on a patch by Jiri Olsa, but this time _just_ making the conversion from statically allocating thread->mg to turning it into a pointer and instead of initializing it at thread's constructor, introduce a constructor/destructor for the map_groups class and call at thread creation time. Later we will introduce the get/put methods when we move to sharing those map_groups, when the get/put refcounting semantics will be needed.

* perf symbols: Apply all filters to an addr_locationNamhyung Kim2014-03-181-10/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of bailing out as soon as we find a filter that applies, go on checking all of them so that we can zoom in/out filters. We also need to make sure we only update al->filtered after thread__find_addr_map(), because there is where al->filtered gets initialized to zero. This will increase the cost of processing when all we don't need this toggling, but will provide flexibility for the TUI and GTK+ interfaces, that will incur in creating the hist_entries just once.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By turning the addr_location->filtered member from a boolean to a u8 bitmap, reusing (and extending) the hist_filter enum for that. This patch doesn't change the logic at all, as it keeps the meaning of al->filtered !0 to mean that the entry _was_ filtered, so no change in how this value is interpreted needs to be done at this point.

* perf tools: Speed up thread map generationDon Zickus2014-03-141-8/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When trying to capture perf data on a system running spejbb2013, perf hung for about 15 minutes. This is because it took that long to gather about 10,000 thread maps and process them. I don't think a user wants to wait that long. Instead, recognize that thread maps are roughly equivalent to pid maps and just quickly copy those instead. To do this, I synthesize 'fork' events, this eventually calls thread__fork() and copies the maps over. The overhead goes from 15 minutes down to about a few seconds. -- V2: based on Jiri's comments, moved malloc up a level and made sure the memory was freed Signed-off-by: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Joe Mario <jmario@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1394808224-113774-1-git-send-email-dzickus@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
* perf tools: Fix synthesizing mmaps for threadsDon Zickus2014-03-141-55/+56
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently if a process creates a bunch of threads using pthread_create and then perf is run in system_wide mode, the mmaps for those threads are not captured with a synthesized mmap event. The reason is those threads are not visible when walking the /proc/ directory looking for /proc/<pid>/maps files. Instead they are discovered using the /proc/<pid>/tasks file (which the synthesized comm event uses). This causes problems when a program is trying to map a data address to a tid. Because the tid has no maps, the event is dropped. Changing the program to look up using the pid instead of the tid, finds the correct maps but creates ugly hacks in the program to carry the correct tid around. Fix this by moving the walking of the /proc/<pid>/tasks up a level (out of the comm function) based on Arnaldo's suggestion. Tweaked things a bit to special case the 'full' bit and 'guest' check.

The patch changes the kernel to return EINVAL if attr->mmap2 is set. The patch also modifies the perf tool to use regular PERF_RECORD_MMAP for synthetic events and it also prevents the tool from requesting attr->mmap2 mode because the kernel would reject it. The support will be revisited once the kenrel interface is updated. In V2, we reduce the patch to the strict minimum. In V3, we avoid calling perf_event_open() with mmap2 set because we know it will fail and require fallback retry.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for the new PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 record type exposed by the kernel. This is an extended PERF_RECORD_MMAP record. It adds for each file-backed mapping the device major, minor number and the inode number and generation. This triplet uniquely identifies the source of a file-backed mapping. It can be used to detect identical virtual mappings between processes, for instance. The patch will prefer MMAP2 over MMAP.

Use the new machine__find_thread() method so that if it is not there, we don't create it. As a bonus the parent thread will also not be created at this point.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking unused variables. The variable __used is defined to __attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to __attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning: '__used__' attribute ignored __unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition. If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name in its headers. The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android. This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with __maybe_unused.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | perf does not properly handle monitoring of processes with named threads. For example: $ ps -C myapp -L PID LWP TTY TIME CMD 25118 25118 ? 00:00:00 myapp 25118 25119 ? 00:00:00 myapp:worker perf record -e cs -c 1 -fo /tmp/perf.data -p 25118 -- sleep 10 perf report --stdio -i /tmp/perf.data 100.00% myapp:worker [kernel.kallsyms] [k] perf_event_task_sched_out The process name is set to the name of the last thread it finds for the process. The Problem: perf-top and perf-record both create a thread_map of threads to be monitored. That map is used in perf_event__synthesize_thread_map which loops over the entries in thread_map and calls __event__synthesize_thread to generate COMM and MMAP events. __event__synthesize_thread calls perf_event__synthesize_comm which opens /proc/pid/status, reads the name of the task and its thread group id. That's all fine. The problem is that it then reads /proc/pid/task and generates COMM events for each task it finds - but using the name found in /proc/pid/status where pid is the thread of interest. The end result (looping over thread_map + synthesizing comm events for each thread each time) means the name of the last thread processed sets the name for all threads in the process - which is not good for multithreaded processes with named threads. The Fix: perf_event__synthesize_comm has an input argument (full) that decides whether to process task entries for each pid it is passed. It currently never set to 0 (perf_event__synthesize_comm has a single caller and it always passes the value 1). Let's fix that. Add the full input argument to __event__synthesize_thread which passes it to perf_event__synthesize_comm. For thread/process monitoring set full to 0 which means COMM and MMAP events are only generated for the pid passed to it. For system wide monitoring set full to 1 so that COMM events are generated for all threads in a process.
