'perf record' and 'perf report --dump-raw-trace' supported in this release. Example usage: # perf record -e arm_spe/ts_enable=1,pa_enable=1/ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null count=10000 # perf report --dump-raw-trace Note that the perf.data file is portable, so the report can be run on another architecture host if necessary. Output will contain raw SPE data and its textual representation, such as: 0x5c8 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE size: 0x200000 offset: 0 ref: 0x1891ad0e idx: 1 tid: 2227 cpu: 1 . . ...

Other release notes: - applies to acme's perf/{core,urgent} branches, likely elsewhere - Report is self-contained within the tool. Record requires enabling the kernel SPE driver by setting CONFIG_ARM_SPE_PMU. - The intel-bts implementation was used as a starting point; its min/default/max buffer sizes and power of 2 pages granularity need to be revisited for ARM SPE - Recording across multiple SPE clusters/domains not supported - Snapshot support (record -S), and conversion to native perf events (e.g., via 'perf inject --itrace'), are also not supported - Technically both cs-etm and spe can be used simultaneously, however disabled for simplicity in this release Signed-off-by: Kim Phillips <kim.phillips@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Dongjiu Geng <gengdongjiu@huawei.com> Acked-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Cc: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Mathieu Poirier <mathieu.poirier@linaro.org> Cc: Pawel Moll <pawel.moll@arm.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org> Cc: Suzuki Poulouse <suzuki.poulose@arm.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180114132850.0b127434b704a26bad13268f@arm.comSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

If a field is a dynamic string, get_field_str() returned just the offset/size value and not the string. Have it parse the offset/size correctly to return the actual string.

It makes the code clearer and less error prone. clearer: - less code - the code is now using the same format to create strings dynamically less error prone: - no magic number +2 +9 +5 to compute the size - no copy&paste of the strings to compute the size and to concatenate The function `asprintf` is not POSIX standard but the program was already using it. Later it can be decided to use only POSIX functions, then we can easly replace all the `asprintf(3)` with a local implementation of that function.

The Linux kernel printf() has some extended use cases that dereference the pointer. This is dangerouse for tracing because the pointer that is dereferenced can change or even be unmapped. It also causes issues when the trace data is extracted, because user space does not have access to the contents of the pointer even if it still exists. To handle this, the kernel was updated to process these dereferenced pointers at the time they are recorded, and not post processed. Now they exist in the tracing buffer, and no dereference is needed at the time of reading the trace. The event parsing library needs to handle this new case.

When processing %pX in pretty_print(), simplify the logic slightly by incrementing the ptr to the format string if isalnum(ptr[1]) is true. This follows the logic a bit more closely to what is in the kernel. Also, this fixes a small bug where %pF was not giving the offset of the function.

The raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} were first supported in 'perf trace', together with minor and major page faults, then we supported --call-graph, then --max-stack, but when the other tracepoints got supported, and bpf, etc, I forgot to make those global call-graph settings apply to them. Fix it by realizing that the global --max-stack and --call-graph settings are done via: OPT_CALLBACK(0, "call-graph", &trace.opts, "record_mode[,record_size]", record_callchain_help, &record_parse_callchain_opt), And then, when we go to parse the events in -e via: OPT_CALLBACK('e', "event", &trace, "event", "event/syscall selector. use 'perf list' to list available events", trace__parse_events_option), And trace__parse_sevents_option() calls: struct option o = OPT_CALLBACK('e', "event", &trace->evlist, "event", "event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events", parse_events_option); err = parse_events_option(&o, lists[0], 0); parse_events_option() will override the global --call-graph and --max-stack if the "call-graph" and/or "max-stack" terms are in the event definition, such as in the probe_libc:inet_pton event in one of the examples below (-e probe_libc:inet_pton/max-stack=2).

Since 75562573 ("perf tools: Add support for PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER") we don't need explicitely set PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER, as perf_evlist__config() will do this for us, i.e. when there are more than one evsel in an evlist, it will check if some evsel has a sample_type different than the one on the first evsel in the list, setting PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER in that case. So, to simplify 'perf trace' codebase, ditch that check.

There could be different types of memory in the system. E.g normal System Memory, Persistent Memory. To understand how the workload maps to those memories, it's important to know the I/O statistics of them. Perf can collect physical addresses, but those are raw data. It still needs extra work to resolve the physical addresses. Provide a script to facilitate the physical addresses resolving and I/O statistics. Profile with MEM_INST_RETIRED.ALL_LOADS or MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.ALL_LOADS event if any of them is available. Look up the /proc/iomem and resolve the physical address. Provide memory type summary. Here is an example output: # perf script report mem-phys-addr Event: mem_inst_retired.all_loads:P Memory type count percentage ---------------------------------------- ----------- ----------- System RAM 74 53.2% Persistent Memory 55 39.6% N/A --- Changes since V2: - Apply the new license rules. - Add comments for globals Changes since V1: - Do not mix DLA and Load Latency.

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.16-20180110' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: - The 'perf test bpf' entry hooked a eBPF proggie to the SyS_epoll_wait() kernel function and expected it to be hit when calling the epoll_wait() libc wrapper, which changed recently, in systems such as Fedora 27, with the glibc wrapper calling instead the epoll_pwait() syscall, so switch to epoll_pwait() for both the kernel and libc function, getting it to work both in old and new systems (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Beautify 'gettid' syscall result in 'perf trace', and in doing so noticed that we need to handle namespaces in 'perf trace', will be dealt with in follow up patches where we'll try to figure out if the recent support for namespace in tools/perf/ can be used for this purpose as well. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Introduce 'perf report --mmaps' and 'perf report --tasks' to show info present in 'perf.data' (Jiri Olsa, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Synchronize kernel <-> tooling headers wrt meltdown/spectre changes (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Fix a wrong offset issue when using /proc/kcore (Jin Yao) - Fix bug that prevented annotating symbols in perf.data files generated with 'perf record --branch-any' (Jin Yao) - Add infrastructure to record first and last sample time to the perf.data file header, so that when processing all samples in a 'perf record' session, such as when doing build-id processing, or when specifically requesting that that info be recorded, use that in 'perf report --time', that also got support for percent slices in addition to absolute ones. I.e. now it is possible to ask for the samples in the 10%-20% time slice of a perf.data file (Jin Yao) - Enable building with libbabeltrace by default (Jiri Olsa) - Display perf_event_attr::namespaces when duping the attributes in verbose mode (Jiri Olsa) - Allocate context task_ctx_data for child event (Jiri Olsa) - Update comments for PERF_RECORD_ITRACE_START and PERF_RECORD_MISC_* (Jiri Olsa) - Add support for showing PERF_RECORD_LOST events in 'perf script' (Jiri Olsa) - Add 'perf report --stats' option to display quick statistics about metadata events (PERF_RECORD_*) i.e. what we get at the end of 'perf report -D' (Jiri Olsa) - Fix compile error with libunwind x86 (Wang Nan) Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Two kernel headers got modified recently due to meltdown/spectre, in: a89f040f ("x86/cpufeatures: Add X86_BUG_CPU_INSECURE") which are used by tooling as well: arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h arch/x86/include/asm/disabled-features.h None of those changes have an effect on tooling, so do a plain copy.

Similar to --tasks, producing the same output plus /proc/<PID>/maps similar lines for each mmap record present in a perf.data file. Please note that not all mmaps are stored, for instance, some of the non-executable mmaps are only stored when 'perf record --data' is used, when the user wants to resolve data accesses in addition to asking for executable mmaps to get the DSO with symtabs. E.g.: # perf record sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.018 MB perf.data (7 samples) ] [root@jouet ~]# perf report --mmaps # pid tid ppid comm 0 0 -1 |swapper 4137 4137 -1 |sleep 5628a35a1000-5628a37aa000 r-xp 00000000 3147148 /usr/bin/sleep 7fb65ad51000-7fb65b134000 r-xp 00000000 3149795 /usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so 7fb65b134000-7fb65b35e000 r-xp 00000000 3149715 /usr/lib64/ld-2.26.so 7ffd94b9f000-7ffd94ba1000 r-xp 00000000 0 [vdso] # # perf record sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.019 MB perf.data (8 samples) ] # perf report --mmaps # pid tid ppid comm 0 0 -1 |swapper 4161 4161 -1 |sleep 55afae69a000-55afae8a3000 r-xp 00000000 3147148 /usr/bin/sleep 7f569f00d000-7f569f3f0000 r-xp 00000000 3149795 /usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so 7f569f3f0000-7f569f61a000 r-xp 00000000 3149715 /usr/lib64/ld-2.26.so 7fff6fffe000-7fff70000000 r-xp 00000000 0 [vdso] # # perf record time sleep 1 0.00user 0.00system 0:01.00elapsed 0%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2156maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+73minor)pagefaults 0swaps [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.019 MB perf.data (14 samples) ] # perf report --mmaps # pid tid ppid comm 0 0 -1 |swapper 4281 4281 -1 |time 560560dca000-560560fcf000 r-xp 00000000 3190458 /usr/bin/time 7fc175196000-7fc175579000 r-xp 00000000 3149795 /usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so 7fc175579000-7fc1757a3000 r-xp 00000000 3149715 /usr/lib64/ld-2.26.so 7ffc924f6000-7ffc924f8000 r-xp 00000000 0 [vdso] 4282 4282 4281 | sleep 560560dca000-560560fcf000 r-xp 00000000 3190458 /usr/bin/time 564b4de3c000-564b4e045000 r-xp 00000000 3147148 /usr/bin/sleep 7f6a5a716000-7f6a5aaf9000 r-xp 00000000 3149795 /usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so 7f6a5aaf9000-7f6a5ad23000 r-xp 00000000 3149715 /usr/lib64/ld-2.26.so 7fc175196000-7fc175579000 r-xp 00000000 3149795 /usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so 7fc175579000-7fc1757a3000 r-xp 00000000 3149715 /usr/lib64/ld-2.26.so 7ffc924f6000-7ffc924f8000 r-xp 00000000 0 [vdso] 7ffcec7e6000-7ffcec7e8000 r-xp 00000000 0 [vdso] # Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-zulwdlg5rfowogr1qznorvvc@git.kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Currently we use perf_event_context::task_ctx_data to save and restore the LBR status when the task is scheduled out and in. We don't allocate it for child contexts, which results in shorter task's LBR stack, because we don't save the history from previous run and start over every time we schedule the task in. I made a test to generate samples with LBR call stack and got higher numbers on bigger chain depths: before: after: LBR call chain: nr: 1 60561 498127 LBR call chain: nr: 2 0 0 LBR call chain: nr: 3 107030 2172 LBR call chain: nr: 4 466685 62758 LBR call chain: nr: 5 2307319 878046 LBR call chain: nr: 6 48713 495218 LBR call chain: nr: 7 1040 4551 LBR call chain: nr: 8 481 172 LBR call chain: nr: 9 878 120 LBR call chain: nr: 10 2377 6698 LBR call chain: nr: 11 28830 151487 LBR call chain: nr: 12 29347 339867 LBR call chain: nr: 13 4 22 LBR call chain: nr: 14 3 53 Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Fixes: 4af57ef2 ("perf: Add pmu specific data for perf task context") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180107160356.28203-4-jolsa@kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Previous patch supports the multiple time range. For example, select the first and second 10% time slices. perf report --time 10%/1,10%/2 We need a function to check if a timestamp is in the ranges of [0, 10%) and [10%, 20%]. Note that it includes the last element in [10%, 20%] but it doesn't include the last element in [0, 10%). It's to avoid the overlap. This patch implments a new function perf_time__ranges_skip_sample for this checking. Change log: v4: Let perf_time__ranges_skip_sample be compatible with perf_time__skip_sample when only one time range.

Select the second 10% time slice perf report --time 10%/2 2. Select from 0% to 10% time slice perf report --time 0%-10% It also support the multiple time ranges. 3. Select the first and second 10% time slices perf report --time 10%/1,10%/2 4. Select from 0% to 10% and 30% to 40% slices perf report --time 0%-10%,30%-40% Changelog: v4: An issue is found. Following passes. perf script --time 10%/10x12321xsdfdasfdsafdsafdsa Now it uses strtol to replace atoi. Committer notes: This just puts in place the infrastructure, so the examples in this cset comment will only work later, after more patches in this series are applied.

In the default 'perf record' configuration, all samples are processed, to create the HEADER_BUILD_ID table. So it's very easy to get the first/last samples and save the time to perf file header via the function write_sample_time(). Later, at post processing time, perf report/script will fetch the time from perf file header. Committer testing: # perf record -a sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.099 MB perf.data (1101 samples) ] [root@jouet home]# perf report --header | grep "time of " # time of first sample : 22947.909226 # time of last sample : 22948.910704 # # perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE\( 0 22947909226101 0x20bb68 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4001): 0/0: 0xffffffffa21b1af3 period: 1 addr: 0 0 22947909229928 0x20bb98 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4001): 0/0: 0xffffffffa200d204 period: 1 addr: 0 <SNIP> 3 22948910397351 0x219360 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4001): 28251/28251: 0xffffffffa22071d8 period: 169518 addr: 0 0 22948910652380 0x20f120 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4001): 0/0: 0xffffffffa2856816 period: 198807 addr: 0 2 22948910704034 0x2172d0 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4001): 0/0: 0xffffffffa2856816 period: 88111 addr: 0 # Changelog: v7: Just update the patch description according to Arnaldo's suggestion. v6: Currently '--buildid-all' is not enabled at default. So the walking on all samples is the default operation. There is no big overhead to calculate the timestamp boundary in process_sample_event handler once we already go through all samples. So the timestamp boundary calculation is enabled by default when '--buildid-all' is not enabled. While if '--buildid-all' is enabled, we creates a new option "--timestamp-boundary" for user to decide if it enables the timestamp boundary calculation. v5: There is an issue that the sample walking can only work when '--buildid-all' is not enabled. So we need to let the walking be able to work even if '--buildid-all' is enabled and let the processing skips the dso hit marking for this case. At first, I want to provide a new option "--record-time-boundaries". While after consideration, I think a new option is not very necessary. v3: Remove the definitions of first_sample_time and last_sample_time from struct record and directly save them in perf_evlist.

perf report/script/... have a --time option to limit the time range of output. That's very useful to slice large traces, e.g. when processing the output of perf script for some analysis. But right now --time only supports absolute time. Also there is no fast way to get the start/end times of a given trace except for looking at it. This makes it hard to e.g. only decode the first half of the trace, which is useful for parallelization of scripts Another problem is that perf records are variable size and there is no synchronization mechanism. So the only way to find the last sample reliably would be to walk all samples. But we want to avoid that in perf report/... because it is already quite expensive. That is why storing the first sample time and last sample time in perf record is better. This patch creates a new header feature type HEADER_SAMPLE_TIME and related ops. Save the first sample time and the last sample time to the feature section in perf file header. That will be done when, for instance, processing build-ids, where we already have to process all samples to create the build-id table, take advantage of that to further amortize that processing by storing HEADER_SAMPLE_TIME to make 'perf report/script' faster when using --time. Committer testing: After this patch is applied the header is written with zeroes, we need the next patch, for "perf record" to actually write the timestamps: # perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE\( 22501155244406 0x44f0 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4001): 25016/25016: 0xffffffffa21be8c5 period: 1 addr: 0 <SNIP> 22501155793625 0x4a30 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4001): 25016/25016: 0xffffffffa21ffd50 period: 2828043 addr: 0 # perf report --header | grep "time of " # time of first sample : 0.000000 # time of last sample : 0.000000 # Changelog: v7: 1. Rebase to latest perf/core branch. 2. Add following clarification in patch description according to Arnaldo's suggestion. "That will be done when, for instance, processing build-ids, where we already have to process all samples to create the build-id table, take advantage of that to further amortize that processing by storing HEADER_SAMPLE_TIME to make 'perf report/script' faster when using --time." v4: Use perf script time style for timestamp printing. Also add with the printing of sample duration. v3: Remove the definitions of first_sample_time/last_sample_time from perf_session. Just define them in perf_evlist Signed-off-by: Jin Yao <yao.jin@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1512738826-2628-2-git-send-email-yao.jin@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
