2009-11-27perf tools: Reorganize event processing routines, lotsa dups killedArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
While implementing event__preprocess_sample, that will do all of the symbol lookup in one convenient function, I noticed that util/process_event.[ch] were not being used at all, then started looking if there were other functions that could be shared and... All those functions really don't need to receive offset + head, the only thing they did was common to all of them, so do it at one place instead. Stats about number of each type of event processed now is done in a central place.

2009-11-24perf symbols: Simplify symbol machinery setupArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
And also express its configuration toggles via a struct. Now all one has to do is to call symbol__init(NULL) if the defaults are OK, or pass a struct symbol_conf pointer with the desired configuration. If a tool uses kernel_maps__find_symbol() to look at the kernel and modules mappings for a symbol but didn't call symbol__init() first, that will generate a one time warning too, alerting the subcommand developer that symbol__init() must be called.

This reverts commit 9a92b479b2f088ee2d3194243f4c8e59b1b8c9c2 ("perf tools: Improve thread comm resolution in perf sched") and fixes the real bug. The bug was elsewhere: We are failing to resolve thread names in perf sched because the table of threads we are building, on top of comm events, has a per process granularity. But perf sched, unlike the other perf tools, needs a per thread granularity as we are profiling every tasks individually. So fix it by building our threads table using the tid instead of the pid as the thread identifier. v2: Revert the previous fix - it is not really needed Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> LKML-Reference: <1255028657-11158-1-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

When we get sched traces that involve a task that was already created before opening the event, we won't have the comm event for it. So if we can't find the comm event for a given thread, we look at the traces that may contain these informations.

2009-10-07perf tools: Merge trace.info content into perf.dataFrederic Weisbecker
This drops the trace.info file and move its contents into the common perf.data file. This is done by creating a new trace_info section into this file. A user of perf headers needs to call perf_header__set_trace_info() to save the trace meta informations into the perf.data file. A file created by perf after his patch is unsupported by previous version because the size of the headers have increased. That said, it's two new fields that have been added in the end of the headers, and those could be ignored by previous versions if they just handled the dynamic header size and then ignore the unknow part. The offsets guarantee the compatibility. We'll do a -stable fix for that. But current previous versions handle the header size using its static size, not dynamic, then it's not backward compatible with trace records.

2009-09-21perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance EventsIngo Molnar
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.

2009-09-14perf tools: Fix processing of randomly serialized sched tracesFrederic Weisbecker
Currently it's possible to meet such too high latency results with 'perf sched latency'. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Task | Runtime ms | Switches | Average delay ms | Maximum delay ms | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- xfce4-panel | 0.222 ms | 2 | avg: 4718.345 ms | max: 9436.493 ms | scsi_eh_3 | 3.962 ms | 36 | avg: 55.957 ms | max: 1977.829 ms | The origin is on traces that are sometimes badly serialized across cpus. For example the raw traces that raised such results for xfce4-panel: (1) [init]-0 [000] 1494.663899990: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] (R) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120] (2) xfce4-panel-4569 [000] 1494.663928373: sched_switch: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] (S) ==> swapper:0 [140] (3) Xorg-4276 [001] 1494.663860125: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000] (4) Xorg-4276 [001] 1504.098252756: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000] (5) perf-5219 [000] 1504.100353302: sched_switch: task perf:5219 [120] (S) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120] The traces are processed in the order they arrive. Then in (2), xfce4-panel sleeps, it is first waken up in (3) and eventually scheduled in (5). The latency reported is then 1504 - 1495 = 9 secs, as reported by perf sched. But this is wrong, we are confident in the fact the traces are nicely serialized while we should actually more trust the timestamps. If we reorder by timestamps we get: (1) Xorg-4276 [001] 1494.663860125: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000] (2) [init]-0 [000] 1494.663899990: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] (R) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120] (3) xfce4-panel-4569 [000] 1494.663928373: sched_switch: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] (S) ==> swapper:0 [140] (4) Xorg-4276 [001] 1504.098252756: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000] (5) perf-5219 [000] 1504.100353302: sched_switch: task perf:5219 [120] (S) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120] Now the trace make more sense, xfce4-panel is sleeping. Then it is woken up in (1), scheduled in (2) It goes to sleep in (3), woken up in (4) and scheduled in (5). Now, latency captured between (1) and (2) is of 39 us. And between (4) and (5) it is 2.1 ms. Such pattern of bad serializing is the origin of the high latencies reported by perf sched. Basically, we need to check whether wake up time is higher than schedule out time. If it's not the case, we need to tag the current work atom as invalid. Beside that, we may need to work later on a better ordering of the traces given by the kernel.

For now, the latencies are measured in the following sequence scope: - task A is sleeping (D or S state) - task B wakes up A ^ | | latency timeframe | | v - task A is scheduled in Start by recording every scheduler events: perf record -e sched:* and then fetch the results: perf sched -l Tasks count total avg max migration/0 2 39849 19924 28826 ksoftirqd/0 7 756383 108054 373014 migration/1 5 45391 9078 10452 ksoftirqd/1 2 399055 199527 359130 events/0 8 4780110 597513 4500250 events/1 9 6353057 705895 2986012 kblockd/0 42 37805097 900121 5077684 The snapshot are in nanoseconds. - Count: number of snapshots taken for the given task - Total: total latencies in nanosec - Avg : average of latency between wake up and sched in - Max : max snapshot latency Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-09-13perf sched: Make it easier to plug in new sub profilersFrederic Weisbecker
Create a sched event structure of handlers in which various sched events reader can plug their own callbacks. This makes easier the addition of new perf sched sub commands.

2009-09-13perf sched: Fix bad event alignmentFrederic Weisbecker
perf sched raises the following error when it meets a sched switch event: perf: builtin-sched.c:286: register_pid: Assertion `!(pid >= 65536)' failed. Abandon Currently in x86-64, the sched switch events have a hole in the middle of the structure: u16 common_type; u8 common_flags; u8 common_preempt_count; u32 common_pid; u32 common_tgid; char prev_comm[16]; u32 prev_pid; u32 prev_prio; <--- there u64 prev_state; char next_comm[16]; u32 next_pid; u32 next_prio; Gcc inserts a 4 bytes hole there for prev_state to be u64 aligned. And the events are exported to userspace with this hole. But in userspace, from perf sched, we fetch it using a structure that has a new field in the beginning: u32 size. This is because our trace is exported with its size as a field. But now that we have this new field, the hole in the middle disappears because it makes prev_state becoming well aligned. And since we are using a pointer to the raw trace using this struct, instead of reading prev_state, we are reading the hole. We could fix it by keeping the size seperate from the struct but actually there a lot of other potential problems: some fields may be saved as long in a 64 bits system and later read as long in a 32 bits system. Also this direct cast doesn't care about the endianness differences between the host traced machine and the machine in which we do the post processing. So instead of using such dangerous direct casts, fetch the values using the trace parsing API that already takes care of all these problems.

2009-09-13perf sched: Implement the scheduling workload replay engineIngo Molnar
Integrate the schedbench.c bits with the raw trace events that we get from the perf machinery, and activate the workload replayer/simulator. Example of a captured 'make -j' workload: $ perf sched run measurement overhead: 90 nsecs sleep measurement overhead: 2724743 nsecs the run test took 1000081 nsecs the sleep test took 2981111 nsecs version = 0.5 ... nr_run_events: 70 nr_sleep_events: 66 nr_wakeup_events: 9 target-less wakeups: 71 multi-target wakeups: 47 run events optimized: 139 task 0 ( perf: 6607), nr_events: 2 task 1 ( perf: 6608), nr_events: 6 task 2 ( : 0), nr_events: 1 task 3 ( make: 6609), nr_events: 5 task 4 ( sh: 6610), nr_events: 4 task 5 ( make: 6611), nr_events: 6 task 6 ( sh: 6612), nr_events: 4 task 7 ( make: 6613), nr_events: 5 task 8 ( migration/11: 25), nr_events: 1 task 9 ( migration/13: 29), nr_events: 1 task 10 ( migration/15: 33), nr_events: 1 task 11 ( migration/9: 21), nr_events: 1 task 12 ( sh: 6614), nr_events: 4 task 13 ( make: 6615), nr_events: 5 task 14 ( sh: 6616), nr_events: 4 task 15 ( make: 6617), nr_events: 7 task 16 ( migration/3: 9), nr_events: 1 task 17 ( migration/5: 13), nr_events: 1 task 18 ( migration/7: 17), nr_events: 1 task 19 ( migration/1: 5), nr_events: 1 task 20 ( sh: 6618), nr_events: 4 task 21 ( make: 6619), nr_events: 5 task 22 ( sh: 6620), nr_events: 4 task 23 ( make: 6621), nr_events: 10 task 24 ( sh: 6623), nr_events: 3 task 25 ( gcc: 6624), nr_events: 4 task 26 ( gcc: 6625), nr_events: 4 task 27 ( gcc: 6626), nr_events: 5 task 28 ( collect2: 6627), nr_events: 5 task 29 ( sh: 6622), nr_events: 1 task 30 ( make: 6628), nr_events: 7 task 31 ( sh: 6630), nr_events: 4 task 32 ( gcc: 6631), nr_events: 4 task 33 ( sh: 6629), nr_events: 1 task 34 ( gcc: 6632), nr_events: 4 task 35 ( gcc: 6633), nr_events: 4 task 36 ( collect2: 6634), nr_events: 4 task 37 ( make: 6635), nr_events: 8 task 38 ( sh: 6637), nr_events: 4 task 39 ( sh: 6636), nr_events: 1 task 40 ( gcc: 6638), nr_events: 4 task 41 ( gcc: 6639), nr_events: 4 task 42 ( gcc: 6640), nr_events: 4 task 43 ( collect2: 6641), nr_events: 4 task 44 ( make: 6642), nr_events: 6 task 45 ( sh: 6643), nr_events: 5 task 46 ( sh: 6644), nr_events: 3 task 47 ( sh: 6645), nr_events: 4 task 48 ( make: 6646), nr_events: 6 task 49 ( sh: 6647), nr_events: 3 task 50 ( make: 6648), nr_events: 5 task 51 ( sh: 6649), nr_events: 5 task 52 ( sh: 6650), nr_events: 6 task 53 ( make: 6651), nr_events: 4 task 54 ( make: 6652), nr_events: 5 task 55 ( make: 6653), nr_events: 4 task 56 ( make: 6654), nr_events: 4 task 57 ( make: 6655), nr_events: 5 task 58 ( sh: 6656), nr_events: 4 task 59 ( gcc: 6657), nr_events: 9 task 60 ( ksoftirqd/3: 10), nr_events: 1 task 61 ( gcc: 6658), nr_events: 4 task 62 ( make: 6659), nr_events: 5 task 63 ( sh: 6660), nr_events: 3 task 64 ( gcc: 6661), nr_events: 5 task 65 ( collect2: 6662), nr_events: 4 ------------------------------------------------------------ #1 : 256.745, ravg: 256.74, cpu: 0.00 / 0.00 #2 : 439.372, ravg: 275.01, cpu: 0.00 / 0.00 #3 : 411.971, ravg: 288.70, cpu: 0.00 / 0.00 #4 : 385.500, ravg: 298.38, cpu: 0.00 / 0.00 #5 : 366.526, ravg: 305.20, cpu: 0.00 / 0.00 #6 : 381.281, ravg: 312.81, cpu: 0.00 / 0.00 #7 : 410.756, ravg: 322.60, cpu: 0.00 / 0.00 #8 : 368.009, ravg: 327.14, cpu: 0.00 / 0.00 #9 : 408.098, ravg: 335.24, cpu: 0.00 / 0.00 #10 : 368.582, ravg: 338.57, cpu: 0.00 / 0.00 I.e. we successfully analyzed the trace, replayed it via real threads and measured the replayed workload's scheduling properties.

2009-09-13perf sched: Import schedbench.cIngo Molnar
Import the schedbench.c tool that i wrote some time ago to simulate scheduler behavior but never finished. It's a good basis for perf sched nevertheless. Most of its guts are not hooked up to the perf event loop yet - that will be done in the patches to come.
