2019-08-15perf top: Add --switch-on/--switch-off eventsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Just like 'perf trace' and 'perf script', should be useful for instance to only consider samples after the initialization phase of some workload. The man page has some examples and considerations about its current interface, that still doesn't handle the on/off events in a special way, behaving just like when multiple events are specified, i.e.: - In non-group mode (when the event list is not enclosed in {}) show a a menu to allow choosing which event the user wants to see in the histograms browser - In group mode, be it using {} or asking for --group, show one column per event. Try for instance: # perf top -e '{cycles,instructions,probe:icmp_rcv}' --switch-on=probe:icmp_rcv Replace probe:icmp_rcv, that I put in place using: # perf probe icmp_rcv:59 To hit when broadcast packets arrive, with a probe installed after an initialization phase is over or after some other point of interest, some garbage collection, etc, and also use --switch-off, for instance, on a probe installed after said garbage collection is over.

2019-08-12perf top: Collapse and resort all evsels in a groupArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
And link them, i.e. find the hist entries in the non-leader events and link them to the ones in the leader. This should be the same thing already done for the 'perf report' case, but now we do it periodically. With this in place we get percentages in from the second overhead column on, not just on the first (the leader). Try it using: perf top --stdio -e '{cycles,instructions}' You should see something like: PerfTop: 20776 irqs/sec kernel:68.7% exact: 0.0% lost: 0/0 drop: 0/0 [cycles], (all, 8 CPUs) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4.44% 0.44% [kernel] [k] do_syscall_64 2.27% 0.17% [kernel] [k] entry_SYSCALL_64 1.73% 0.27% [kernel] [k] syscall_return_via_sysret 1.60% 0.91% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave 1.45% 3.53% libglib-2.0.so.0.6000.4 [.] g_string_insert_unichar 1.39% 0.21% [kernel] [k] copy_user_enhanced_fast_string 1.26% 1.15% [kernel] [k] psi_task_change 1.16% 0.14% libpixman-1.so.0.38.0 [.] 0x000000000006f403 1.00% 0.32% [kernel] [k] __sched_text_start 0.97% 2.11% [kernel] [k] n_tty_write 0.96% 0.04% [kernel] [k] queued_spin_lock_slowpath 0.93% 0.88% [kernel] [k] menu_select 0.87% 0.14% [kernel] [k] try_to_wake_up 0.77% 0.10% libpixman-1.so.0.38.0 [.] 0x000000000006f40b 0.73% 0.09% libpixman-1.so.0.38.0 [.] 0x000000000006f413 0.69% 0.48% libc-2.29.so [.] __memmove_avx_unaligned_erms 0.68% 0.29% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irq 0.61% 0.04% libpixman-1.so.0.38.0 [.] 0x000000000006f423 0.60% 0.37% [kernel] [k] native_sched_clock 0.57% 0.23% [kernel] [k] do_idle 0.57% 0.23% [kernel] [k] __fget 0.56% 0.30% [kernel] [k] __switch_to_asm 0.56% 0.00% libc-2.29.so [.] __memset_avx2_erms 0.52% 0.32% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock 0.49% 0.24% [kernel] [k] n_tty_poll 0.49% 0.54% libglib-2.0.so.0.6000.4 [.] g_mutex_lock 0.48% 0.62% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore 0.47% 0.27% [kernel] [k] __switch_to 0.47% 0.25% [kernel] [k] pick_next_task_fair 0.45% 0.17% [kernel] [k] filldir64 0.40% 0.16% [kernel] [k] update_rq_clock 0.39% 0.19% [kernel] [k] enqueue_task_fair # Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-uw8cjeifxvjpkjp6x2iil0ar@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2019-06-25tools perf: Move from sane_ctype.h obtained from git to the Linux's originalArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
We got the sane_ctype.h headers from git and kept using it so far, but since that code originally came from the kernel sources to the git sources, perhaps its better to just use the one in the kernel, so that we can leverage tools/perf/check_headers.sh to be notified when our copy gets out of sync, i.e. when fixes or goodies are added to the code we've copied. This will help with things like tools/lib/string.c where we want to have more things in common with the kernel, such as strim(), skip_spaces(), etc so as to go on removing the things that we have in tools/perf/util/ and instead using the code in the kernel, indirectly and removing things like EXPORT_SYMBOL(), etc, getting notified when fixes and improvements are made to the original code. Hopefully this also should help with reducing the difference of code hosted in tools/ to the one in the kernel proper.

2019-03-21perf tools: Save bpf_prog_info and BTF of new BPF programsSong Liu
To fully annotate BPF programs with source code mapping, 4 different information are needed: 1) PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL 2) PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT 3) bpf_prog_info 4) btf This patch handles 3) and 4) for BPF programs loaded after 'perf record|top'. For timely process of these information, a dedicated event is added to the side band evlist. When PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT is received via the side band event, the polling thread gathers 3) and 4) vis sys_bpf and store them in perf_env. This information is saved to perf.data at the end of 'perf record'. Committer testing: The 'wakeup_watermark' member in 'struct perf_event_attr' is inside a unnamed union, so can't be used in a struct designated initialization with older gccs, get it out of that, isolating as 'attr.wakeup_watermark = 1;' to work with all gcc versions. We also need to add '--no-bpf-event' to the 'perf record' perf_event_attr tests in 'perf test', as the way that that test goes is to intercept the events being setup and looking if they match the fields described in the control files, since now it finds first the side band event used to catch the PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT, they all fail. With these issues fixed: Same scenario as for testing BPF programs loaded before 'perf record' or 'perf top' starts, only start the BPF programs after 'perf record|top', so that its information get collected by the sideband threads, the rest works as for the programs loaded before start monitoring. Add missing 'inline' to the bpf_event__add_sb_event() when HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT is not defined, fixing the build in systems without binutils devel files installed.

2019-03-21perf evlist: Introduce side band threadSong Liu
This patch introduces side band thread that captures extended information for events like PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT. This new thread uses its own evlist that uses ring buffer with very low watermark for lower latency. To use side band thread, we need to: 1. add side band event(s) by calling perf_evlist__add_sb_event(); 2. calls perf_evlist__start_sb_thread(); 3. at the end of perf run, perf_evlist__stop_sb_thread(). In the next patch, we use this thread to handle PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT. Committer notes: Add fix by Jiri Olsa for when te sb_tread can't get started and then at the end the stop_sb_thread() segfaults when joining the (non-existing) thread. That can happen when running 'perf top' or 'perf record' as a normal user, for instance. Further checks need to be done on top of this to more graciously handle these possible failure scenarios.

With this we create per event buckets with callchain trees, so that # perf top --sort dso -g --no-children Bucketizes samples by DSO and below it shows the callchains leading to functions in this DSO. Try also: # perf top -e sched:*switch -g --no-children To see the callchains leading to sched switches, pressing 'E' to expand all one can quickly see the most common scheduler switches and what leads to them, for instance, calls to IO, futexes, etc. Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190107140854.GA28965@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2018-12-17perf top: Add processing threadJiri Olsa
Add a new thread that takes care of the hist creating to alleviate the main reader thread so it can keep perf mmaps served in time so that we reduce the possibility of losing events. The 'perf top' command now spawns 2 extra threads, the data processing is the following: 1) The main thread reads the data from mmaps and queues them to ordered events object; 2) The processing threads takes the data from the ordered events object and create initial histogram; 3) The GUI thread periodically sorts the initial histogram and presents it. Passing the data between threads 1 and 2 is done by having 2 ordered events queues. One is always being stored by thread 1 while the other is flushed out in thread 2. Passing the data between threads 2 and 3 stays the same as was initially for threads 1 and 3. Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Acked-by: David S.

This basically replicates what was done for 'perf report' in: b226a5a72901 ("perf report: Allow user to specify path to kallsyms file") This should help with resolving eBPF symbols, that are in kallsyms but, of course, not in vmlinux.

2018-11-05perf top: Display the LBR stats in callchain entryJin Yao
'perf report' has supported the displaying of LBR stats (such as cycles, predicted%) in callchain entry. For example: $ perf report --branch-history --stdio --1.01%--intel_idle mwait.h:29 intel_idle cpufeature.h:164 (cycles:5) intel_idle cpufeature.h:164 (predicted:76.4%) intel_idle mwait.h:102 (cycles:41) intel_idle current.h:15 While 'perf top' doesn't support that. For example: $ perf top -a -b --call-graph branch - 13.86% 0.23% [kernel] [k] __x86_indirect_thunk_rax - 13.65% __x86_indirect_thunk_rax + 1.69% do_syscall_64 + 1.68% do_select + 1.41% ktime_get + 0.70% __schedule + 0.62% do_sys_poll 0.58% __x86_indirect_thunk_rax Actually it's very easy to enable this feature in 'perf top'. With this patch, the result is: $ perf top -a -b --call-graph branch $ - 13.58% 0.00% [kernel] [k] __x86_indirect_thunk_rax $ - 13.57% __x86_indirect_thunk_rax (predicted:93.9%) $ + 1.78% do_select (cycles:2) $ + 1.68% perf_pmu_disable.part.99 (cycles:1) $ + 1.45% ___sys_recvmsg (cycles:25) $ + 0.81% unix_stream_sendmsg (cycles:18) $ + 0.80% ktime_get (cycles:400) $ 0.58% pick_next_task_fair (cycles:47) $ + 0.56% i915_request_retire (cycles:2) $ + 0.52% do_sys_poll (cycles:4) Signed-off-by: Jin Yao <yao.jin@linux.intel.com> 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: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1540983995-20462-1-git-send-email-yao.jin@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2018-10-31perf top: Start display thread earlierDavid Miller
If events are coming in at a rate such that the event processing thread can barely keep up, our initial run of the event ring will almost never terminate and this delays the starting of the display thread. The screen basically stays black until the event thread can get out of it's endless loop. Therefore, start the display thread before we start processing the ring buffer. This also make sure that we always have the user requested real time setting engaged when processing the ring. Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-10-31perf top: Do not use overwrite mode by defaultArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Enabling --overwrite mode allows us to to use just the most recent records, which helps in high core count machines such as Knights Landing/Mill, but right now is being disabled by default as the pausing used in this technique is leading to loss of metadata events such as PERF_RECORD_MMAP which makes 'perf top' unable to resolve samples, leading to lots of unknown samples appearing on the UI. Enabling this may be useful if you are in such machines and profiling a workload that doesn't creates short lived threads and/or doesn't uses many executable mmap operations. Work is being planed to solve this situation, till then, this will remain disabled by default.

2018-10-30perf top: Allow disabling the overwrite modeArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
In ebebbf082357 ("perf top: Switch default mode to overwrite mode") we forgot to leave a way to disable that new default, add a --overwrite option that can be disabled using --no-overwrite, since the code already in such a way that we can readily disable this mode. This is useful when investigating bugs with this mode like the recent report from David Miller where lots of unknown symbols appear due to disabling the events while processing them which disables all record types, not just PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE, which makes it impossible to resolve maps when we lose PERF_RECORD_MMAP records. This can be easily seen while building a kernel, when there are lots of short lived processes.

2018-07-24perf hists: Clarify callchain disabling when availableArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
We want to allow having mixed events with/without callchains, not using a global flag to show callchains, but allowing supressing callchains when they are present. So invert the logic of the last parameter to hists__fprint() to that effect.
