perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events! In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

perf tools: handle PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES This patch modifies the perf tool to handle the new RECORD type, PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES. The number of lost-sample events is stored in .nr_events[PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES]. The exact number of samples which the kernel dropped is stored in total_lost_samples. When the percentage of dropped samples is greater than 5%, a warning is printed. Here are some examples: Eg 1, Recording different frequently-occurring events is safe with the patch. Only a very low drop rate is associated with such actions. $ perf record -e '{cycles:p,instructions:p}' -c 20003 --no-time ~/tchain ~/tchain $ perf report -D | tail SAMPLE events: 120243 MMAP2 events: 5 LOST_SAMPLES events: 24 FINISHED_ROUND events: 15 cycles:p stats: TOTAL events: 59348 SAMPLE events: 59348 instructions:p stats: TOTAL events: 60895 SAMPLE events: 60895 $ perf report --stdio --group # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # # # Total Lost Samples: 24 # # Samples: 120K of event 'anon group { cycles:p, instructions:p }' # Event count (approx.): 24048600000 # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ................ ........... ................ .................................. # 99.74% 99.86% tchain_edit tchain_edit [.] f3 0.09% 0.02% tchain_edit tchain_edit [.] f2 0.04% 0.00% tchain_edit [kernel.vmlinux] [k] ixgbe_read_reg Eg 2, Recording the same thing multiple times can lead to high drop rate, but it is not a useful configuration. $ perf record -e '{cycles:p,cycles:p}' -c 20003 --no-time ~/tchain Warning: Processed 600592 samples and lost 99.73% samples!

perf script: Add field option 'flags' to print sample flags Instruction tracing will typically have access to information about the instruction being executed for a particular ip sample. Some of that information will be available in the 'flags' member of struct perf_sample. With the addition of transactions events synthesis to Instruction Tracing options, there is a need to be able easily to see the flags because they show whether the ip is at the start, commit or abort of a tranasaction. Consequently add an option to display the flags. The flags are "bcrosyiABEx" which stand for branch, call, return, conditional, system, asynchronous, interrupt, transaction abort, trace begin, trace end, and in transaction, respectively.

perf symbols: Use the buildids if present With this change 'perf record' will intercept PERF_RECORD_MMAP calls, creating a linked list of DSOs, then when the session finishes, it will traverse this list and read the buildids, stashing them at the end of the file and will set up a new feature bit in the header bitmask. 'perf report' will then notice this feature and populate the 'dsos' list and set the build ids. When reading the symtabs it will refuse to load from a file that doesn't have the same build id. This improves the reliability of the profiler output, as symbols and profiling data is more guaranteed to match. Example: [root@doppio ~]# perf report | head /home/acme/bin/perf with build id b1ea544ac3746e7538972548a09aadecc5753868 not found, continuing without symbols # Samples: 2621434559 # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ............... ............................. ...... # 7.91% init [kernel] [k] read_hpet 7.64% init [kernel] [k] mwait_idle_with_hints 7.60% swapper [kernel] [k] read_hpet 7.60% swapper [kernel] [k] mwait_idle_with_hints 3.65% init [kernel] [k] 0xffffffffa02339d9 [root@doppio ~]# In this case the 'perf' binary was an older one, vanished, so its symbols probably wouldn't match or would cause subtly different (and misleading) output. Next patches will support the kernel as well, reading the build id notes for it and the modules from /sys. Another patch should also introduce a new plumbing command: 'perf list-buildids' that will then be used in porcelain that is distro specific to fetch -debuginfo packages where such buildids are present. This will in turn allow for one to run 'perf record' in one machine and 'perf report' in another. Future work on having the buildid sent directly from the kernel in the PERF_RECORD_MMAP event is needed to close races, as the DSO can be changed during a 'perf record' session, but this patch at least helps with non-corner cases and current/older kernels.

perf tools: Add id index Add an index of the event identifiers, in preparation for Intel PT. The event id (also called the sample id) is a unique number allocated by the kernel to the event created by perf_event_open(). Events can include the event id by having a sample type including PERF_SAMPLE_ID or PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER. Currently the main use of the event id is to match an event back to the evsel to which it belongs i.e. perf_evlist__id2evsel() The purpose of this patch is to make it possible to match an event back to the mmap from which it was read. The reason that is useful is because the mmap represents a time-ordered context (either for a cpu or for a thread). Intel PT decodes trace information on that basis. In full-trace mode, that information can be recorded when the Intel PT trace is read, but in sample-mode the Intel PT trace data is embedded in a sample and it is in that case that the "id index" is needed. So the mmaps are numbered (idx) and the cpu and tid recorded against the id by perf_evlist__set_sid_idx() which is called by perf_evlist__mmap_per_evsel(). That information is recorded on the perf.data file in the new "id index". idx, cpu and tid are added to struct perf_sample_id (which is the node of evlist's hash table to match ids to evsels). The information can be retrieved using perf_evlist__id2sid(). Note however this all depends on having a sample type including PERF_SAMPLE_ID or PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER, otherwise ids are not recorded. The "id index" is a synthesized event record which will be created when Intel PT sampling is used by calling perf_event__synthesize_id_index().

perf tools: Add id index Add an index of the event identifiers, in preparation for Intel PT. The event id (also called the sample id) is a unique number allocated by the kernel to the event created by perf_event_open(). Events can include the event id by having a sample type including PERF_SAMPLE_ID or PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER. Currently the main use of the event id is to match an event back to the evsel to which it belongs i.e. perf_evlist__id2evsel() The purpose of this patch is to make it possible to match an event back to the mmap from which it was read. The reason that is useful is because the mmap represents a time-ordered context (either for a cpu or for a thread). Intel PT decodes trace information on that basis. In full-trace mode, that information can be recorded when the Intel PT trace is read, but in sample-mode the Intel PT trace data is embedded in a sample and it is in that case that the "id index" is needed. So the mmaps are numbered (idx) and the cpu and tid recorded against the id by perf_evlist__set_sid_idx() which is called by perf_evlist__mmap_per_evsel(). That information is recorded on the perf.data file in the new "id index". idx, cpu and tid are added to struct perf_sample_id (which is the node of evlist's hash table to match ids to evsels). The information can be retrieved using perf_evlist__id2sid(). Note however this all depends on having a sample type including PERF_SAMPLE_ID or PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER, otherwise ids are not recorded. The "id index" is a synthesized event record which will be created when Intel PT sampling is used by calling perf_event__synthesize_id_index().

perf tools: Fix thread_map event synthesizing in top and record Jeff Moyer reported these messages: Warning: ... trying to fall back to cpu-clock-ticks couldn't open /proc/-1/status couldn't open /proc/-1/maps [ls output] [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.008 MB perf.data (~363 samples) ] That lead me and David Ahern to see that something was fishy on the thread synthesizing routines, at least for the case where the workload is started from 'perf record', as -1 is the default for target_tid in 'perf record --tid' parameter, so somehow we were trying to synthesize the PERF_RECORD_MMAP and PERF_RECORD_COMM events for the thread -1, a bug. So I investigated this and noticed that when we introduced support for recording a process and its threads using --pid some bugs were introduced and that the way to fix it was to instead of passing the target_tid to the event synthesizing routines we should better pass the thread_map that has the list of threads for a --pid or just the single thread for a --tid.

perf tools: handle PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES This patch modifies the perf tool to handle the new RECORD type, PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES. The number of lost-sample events is stored in .nr_events[PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES]. The exact number of samples which the kernel dropped is stored in total_lost_samples. When the percentage of dropped samples is greater than 5%, a warning is printed. Here are some examples: Eg 1, Recording different frequently-occurring events is safe with the patch. Only a very low drop rate is associated with such actions. $ perf record -e '{cycles:p,instructions:p}' -c 20003 --no-time ~/tchain ~/tchain $ perf report -D | tail SAMPLE events: 120243 MMAP2 events: 5 LOST_SAMPLES events: 24 FINISHED_ROUND events: 15 cycles:p stats: TOTAL events: 59348 SAMPLE events: 59348 instructions:p stats: TOTAL events: 60895 SAMPLE events: 60895 $ perf report --stdio --group # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # # # Total Lost Samples: 24 # # Samples: 120K of event 'anon group { cycles:p, instructions:p }' # Event count (approx.): 24048600000 # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ................ ........... ................ .................................. # 99.74% 99.86% tchain_edit tchain_edit [.] f3 0.09% 0.02% tchain_edit tchain_edit [.] f2 0.04% 0.00% tchain_edit [kernel.vmlinux] [k] ixgbe_read_reg Eg 2, Recording the same thing multiple times can lead to high drop rate, but it is not a useful configuration. $ perf record -e '{cycles:p,cycles:p}' -c 20003 --no-time ~/tchain Warning: Processed 600592 samples and lost 99.73% samples!

perf tools: Consolidate symbol resolving across all tools Now we have a very high level routine for simple tools to process IP sample events: int event__preprocess_sample(const event_t *self, struct addr_location *al, symbol_filter_t filter) It receives the event itself and will insert new threads in the global threads list and resolve the map and symbol, filling all this info into the new addr_location struct, so that tools like annotate and report can further process the event by creating hist_entries in their specific way (with or without callgraphs, etc). It in turn uses the new next layer function: void thread__find_addr_location(struct thread *self, u8 cpumode, enum map_type type, u64 addr, struct addr_location *al, symbol_filter_t filter) This one will, given a thread (userspace or the kernel kthread one), will find the given type (MAP__FUNCTION now, MAP__VARIABLE too in the near future) at the given cpumode, taking vdsos into account (userspace hit, but kernel symbol) and will fill all these details in the addr_location given. Tools that need a more compact API for plain function resolution, like 'kmem', can use this other one: struct symbol *thread__find_function(struct thread *self, u64 addr, symbol_filter_t filter) So, to resolve a kernel symbol, that is all the 'kmem' tool needs, its just a matter of calling: sym = thread__find_function(kthread, addr, NULL); The 'filter' parameter is needed because we do lazy parsing/loading of ELF symtabs or /proc/kallsyms. With this we remove more code duplication all around, which is always good, huh? :-) Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: John Kacur <jkacur@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> LKML-Reference: <1259346563-12568-12-git-send-email-acme@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

perf machine: Protect the machine->threads with a rwlock In addition to using refcounts for the struct thread lifetime management, we need to protect access to machine->threads from concurrent access. That happens in 'perf top', where a thread processes events, inserting and deleting entries from that rb_tree while another thread decays hist_entries, that end up dropping references and ultimately deleting threads from the rb_tree and releasing its resources when no further hist_entry (or other data structures, like in 'perf sched') references it. So the rule is the same for refcounts + protected trees in the kernel, get the tree lock, find object, bump the refcount, drop the tree lock, return, use object, drop the refcount if no more use of it is needed, keep it if storing it in some other data structure, drop when releasing that data structure. I.e. pair "t = machine__find(new)_thread()" with a "thread__put(t)", and "perf_event__preprocess_sample(&al)" with "addr_location__put(&al)". The addr_location__put() one is because as we return references to several data structures, we may end up adding more reference counting for the other data structures and then we'll drop it at addr_location__put() time.

perf record: Synthesize COMM event for a command line workload When perf creates a new child to profile, the events are enabled on exec(). And in this case, it doesn't synthesize any event for the child since they'll be generated during exec(). But there's an window between the enabling and the event generation. It used to be overcome since samples are only in kernel (so we always have the map) and the comm is overridden by a later COMM event. However it won't work if events are processed and displayed before the COMM event overrides like in 'perf script'. This leads to those early samples (like native_write_msr_safe) not having a comm but pid (like ':15328'). So it needs to synthesize COMM event for the child explicitly before enabling so that it can have a correct comm. But at this time, the comm will be "perf" since it's not exec-ed yet.
