This infrastructure code was designed for upcoming features of 'perf config'. That collect config key-value pairs from user and system config files (i.e. user wide ~/.perfconfig and system wide $(sysconfdir)/perfconfig) to manage perf's configs.

This option appends current timestamp to the output file name. For example: # perf record -a --timestamp-filename ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Dump perf.data.2015122622265847 ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.742 MB perf.data.<timestamp> (90 samples) ] # ls perf.data.201512262226584 The timestamp will be useful for identifying each perf.data after the 'perf record' support for generating multiple output files gets introduced.

ordered_events__free() leaves linked lists and timestamps not cleared, so unable to be reused after ordered_events__free(). Which is inconvenient after 'perf record' supports generating multiple perf.data output and process build-ids for each of them. Use ordered_events__reinit() for this.

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-20160411' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core Pull perf/core improvements from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: User visible changes: - Automagically create a 'bpf-output' event, easing the setup of BPF C "scripts" that produce output via the perf ring buffer. Now it is just a matter of calling any perf tool, such as 'trace', with a C source file that references the __bpf_stdout__ output channel and that channel will be created and connected to the script: # trace -e nanosleep --event test_bpf_stdout.c usleep 1 0.013 ( 0.013 ms): usleep/2818 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffcead45f40 ) ... 0.013 ( ): __bpf_stdout__:Raise a BPF event!..) 0.015 ( ): perf_bpf_probe:func_begin:(ffffffff81112460)) 0.261 ( ): __bpf_stdout__:Raise a BPF event!..) 0.262 ( ): perf_bpf_probe:func_end:(ffffffff81112460 <- ffffffff81003d92)) 0.264 ( 0.264 ms): usleep/2818 ... [continued]: nanosleep()) = 0 # Further work is needed to reduce the number of lines in a perf bpf C source file, this being the part where we greatly reduce the command line setup (Wang Nan) - 'perf trace' now supports callchains, with 'trace --call-graph dwarf' using libunwind, just like 'perf top', to ask the kernel for stack dumps for CFI processing. This reduces the overhead by asking just for userspace callchains and also only for the syscall exit tracepoint (raw_syscalls:sys_exit) (Milian Wolff, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Try it with, for instance: # perf trace --call dwarf ping 127.0.0.1 An excerpt of a system wide 'perf trace --call dwarf" session is at: https://fedorapeople.org/~acme/perf/perf-trace--call-graph-dwarf--all-cpus.txt You may need to bump the number of mmap pages, using -m/--mmap-pages, but on a Broadwell machine the defaults allowed system wide tracing to work without losing that many records, experiment with just some syscalls, like: # perf trace --call dwarf -e nanosleep,futex All the targets available for 'perf record', 'perf top' (--pid, --tid, --cpu, etc) should work. Also --duration may be interesting to try. To get filenames from in various syscalls pointer args (open, ettc), add this to the mix: # perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=filename:string' Making this work is next in line: # trace --call dwarf --ev sched:sched_switch/call-graph=fp/ usleep 1 I.e. honouring per-tracepoint callchains in 'perf trace' in addition to in raw_syscalls:sys_exit.

The fprintf_sym() and fprintf_callchain() methods now allow users to change the existing behaviour of showing "[unknown]" as the name of unresolved symbols to instead show "[0x123456]", i.e. its address. The current patch doesn't change tools to use this facility, the results from 'perf trace' and 'perf script' cotinue like: 70.109 ( 0.001 ms): qemu-system-x8/10153 poll(ufds: 0x7f2d93ffe870, nfds: 1) = 0 Timeout [unknown] (/usr/lib64/libc-2.22.so) [unknown] (/usr/lib64/libspice-server.so.1.10.0) [unknown] (/usr/lib64/libspice-server.so.1.10.0) [unknown] (/usr/lib64/libspice-server.so.1.10.0) start_thread+0xca (/usr/lib64/libpthread-2.22.so) __clone+0x6d (/usr/lib64/libc-2.22.so) The next patch will make 'perf trace' use the new formatting.

We don't need the callchains at the syscall enter tracepoint, just when finishing it at syscall exit, so reduce the overhead by asking for callchains just at syscall exit.

The rename is for consistency with the parameter name. Make it public for fine grained control of which evsels should have callchains enabled, like, for instance, will be done in the next changesets in 'perf trace', to enable callchains just on the "raw_syscalls:sys_exit" tracepoint.

Instead receive a callchain_param pointer to configure callchain aspects, not doing so if NULL is passed. This will allow fine grained control over which evsels in an evlist gets callchains enabled.

In 'perf trace' we're just interested in printing callchains, and we don't want to use the symbol_conf.use_callchain, so move the callchain part to a new method.

As it receives a FILE, and its more than just the IP, which can even be requested not to be printed. For consistency with other similar methods in tools/perf/, name it as perf_evsel__fprintf_sym() and make it return the number of bytes printed, just like 'fprintf(3)' Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Milian Wolff <milian.wolff@kdab.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-84gawlqa3lhk63nf0t9vnqnn@git.kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Now, one can print the call chain for every encountered sys_exit event, e.g.: $ perf trace -e nanosleep --call-graph dwarf path/to/ex_sleep 1005.757 (1000.090 ms): ex_sleep/13167 nanosleep(...) = 0 syscall_slow_exit_work ([kernel.kallsyms]) syscall_return_slowpath ([kernel.kallsyms]) int_ret_from_sys_call ([kernel.kallsyms]) __nanosleep (/usr/lib/libc-2.23.so) [unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.6.0) QThread::sleep (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.6.0) main (path/to/ex_sleep) __libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc-2.23.so) _start (path/to/ex_sleep) Note that it is advised to increase the number of mmap pages to prevent event losses when using this new feature. Often, adding `-m 10M` to the `perf trace` invocation is enough. This feature is also available in strace when built with libunwind via `strace -k`. Performance wise, this solution is much better: $ time find path/to/linux &> /dev/null real 0m0.051s user 0m0.013s sys 0m0.037s $ time perf trace -m 800M --call-graph dwarf find path/to/linux &> /dev/null real 0m2.624s user 0m1.203s sys 0m1.333s $ time strace -k find path/to/linux &> /dev/null real 0m35.398s user 0m10.403s sys 0m23.173s Note that it is currently not possible to configure the print output. Adding such a feature, similar to what is available in `perf script` via its `--fields` knob can be added later on.
