On powerpc the perf event interrupt is not masked when interrupts are disabled, allowing it to function as an NMI. This causes problems if perf is using vmalloc. If we take a page fault on the vmalloc region the fault handler will fail the page fault because it detects we are coming in from an NMI (see do_hash_page()). We don't actually need or want vmalloc backed perf so just disable it on powerpc. Signed-off-by:

Stephane asked about PERF_COUNT_SW_CPU_MIGRATIONS and I realized it was borken: > The problem is that the task isn't actually scheduled while its being > migrated (obviously), and if its not scheduled, the counters aren't > scheduled either, so there's no observing of the fact. > > A further problem with migrations is that many migrations happen from > softirq context, which is nested inside the 'random' task context of > whoemever happens to run at that time, similarly for the wakeup > migrations triggered from (soft)irq context. All those end up being > accounted in the task that's currently running, eg. your 'ls'. The below cures this by marking a task as migrated and accounting it on the subsequent sched_in().

Currently perf_evsel__hists_browse() function spins on a huge loop and handles many key actions. Since it's hard to read and modify, let's split it out into small helper functions. The add_XXX_opt() functions are to register popup menu item on the selected entry. When it adds an item, it also saves related data into struct popup_action and returns 1 so that it can increase the number of items (nr_options). With this change, we can simplify the code just to call selected callback function without considering various conditions. A callback function named do_XXX is called with saved data when the item is selected by user. No functional change intended. Signed-off-by:

Add support for the PERF_RECORD_ITRACE_START event type. This event can be used to determine the pid and tid that are running when Instruction Tracing starts.

Add support for the PERF_RECORD_AUX event type. PERF_RECORD_AUX is a new kernel event that records when new data lands in the AUX buffer. Currently it is assumed that AUX data follows the same ring buffer conventions used by the perf events buffer, and consequently the AUX event is not processed during recording. It is processed during session processing so that the information in the 'flags' member is made available. The format of PERF_RECORD_AUX is outlined in the linux/perf_events.h header file. The 'flags' are also enumerated. Intel PT and Intel BTS use the flag named PERF_AUX_FLAG_TRUNCATED to determine if data has been lost because the buffer became full as perf was not able to empty it fast enough. Signed-off-by:

Adrian Hunter authored
Add an index of AUX area tracing events within a perf.data file. perf record uses a special user event PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND to enable sorting of events in chunks instead of having to sort all events altogether. AUX area tracing events contain data that can span back to the very beginning of the recording period. i.e. they do not obey the rules of PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND. By adding an index, AUX area tracing events can be found in advance and the PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND approach works as usual. The index is recorded with the auxtrace feature in the perf.data file. A session reads the index but does not process it. An AUX area decoder can queue all the AUX area data in advance using auxtrace_queues__process_index() or otherwise process the index in some custom manner. Signed-off-by:

Add new sort keys for page: page, order, migtype, gfp - existing 'bytes', 'hit' and 'callsite' sort keys also work for page. Note that -s/--sort option should be preceded by either of --slab or --page option to determine where the sort keys applies. Now it properly groups and sorts allocation stats - so same page/caller with different order/migtype/gfp will be printed on a different line. # perf kmem stat --page --caller -l 10 -s order,hit ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total alloc (KB) | Hits | Order | Mig.type | GFP flags | Callsite ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 64 | 4 | 2 | RECLAIM | 00285250 | new_slab 50,144 | 12,536 | 0 | MOVABLE | 0102005a | __page_cache_alloc 52 | 13 | 0 | UNMOVABL | 002084d0 | pte_alloc_one 40 | 10 | 0 | MOVABLE | 000280da | handle_mm_fault 28 | 7 | 0 | UNMOVABL | 000000d0 | __pollwait 20 | 5 | 0 | MOVABLE | 000200da | do_wp_page 20 | 5 | 0 | MOVABLE | 000200da | do_cow_fault 16 | 4 | 0 | UNMOVABL | 00000200 | __tlb_remove_page 16 | 4 | 0 | UNMOVABL | 000084d0 | __pmd_alloc 8 | 2 | 0 | UNMOVABL | 000084d0 | __pud_alloc ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | ... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Signed-off-by: -

It is 'perf kmem' support caller statistics for page. Unlike slab case, the tracepoints in page allocator don't provide callsite info. So it records with callchain and extracts callsite info. Note that the callchain contains several memory allocation functions which has no meaning for users. So skip those functions to get proper callsites. I used following regex pattern to skip the allocator functions: ^_?_?(alloc|get_free|get_zeroed)_pages? This gave me a following list of functions: # perf kmem record --page sleep 3 # perf kmem stat --page -v ... alloc func: __get_free_pages alloc func: get_zeroed_page alloc func: alloc_pages_exact alloc func: __alloc_pages_direct_compact alloc func: __alloc_pages_nodemask alloc func: alloc_page_interleave alloc func: alloc_pages_current alloc func: alloc_pages_vma alloc func: alloc_page_buffers alloc func: alloc_pages_exact_nid ... The output looks mostly same as --alloc (I also added callsite column to that) but groups entries by callsite. Currently, the order, migrate type and GFP flag info is for the last allocation and not guaranteed to be same for all allocations from the callsite. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total_alloc (KB) | Hits | Order | Mig.type | GFP flags | Callsite --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1,064 | 266 | 0 | UNMOVABL | 000000d0 | __pollwait 52 | 13 | 0 | UNMOVABL | 002084d0 | pte_alloc_one 44 | 11 | 0 | MOVABLE | 000280da | handle_mm_fault 20 | 5 | 0 | MOVABLE | 000200da | do_cow_fault 20 | 5 | 0 | MOVABLE | 000200da | do_wp_page 16 | 4 | 0 | UNMOVABL | 000084d0 | __pmd_alloc 16 | 4 | 0 | UNMOVABL | 00000200 | __tlb_remove_page 12 | 3 | 0 | UNMOVABL | 000084d0 | __pud_alloc 8 | 2 | 0 | UNMOVABL | 00000010 | bio_copy_user_iov 4 | 1 | 0 | UNMOVABL | 000200d2 | pipe_write 4 | 1 | 0 | MOVABLE | 000280da | do_wp_page 4 | 1 | 0 | UNMOVABL | 002084d0 | pgd_alloc --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Signed-off-by: -
