* perf stat: Clean up statistics calculations a bit morePeter Zijlstra2009-09-041-17/+14
| | | | | | | | | Remove some, now useless, global storage. Don't calculate the stddev when not needed. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* perf stat: More advanced variance computationPeter Zijlstra2009-09-041-12/+12
| | | | | | | | | | Use the more advanced single pass variance algorithm outlined on the wikipedia page. This is numerically more stable for larger sample sets. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* perf stat: Use stddev_mean in stead of stddevPeter Zijlstra2009-09-041-6/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we're computing the mean by sampling the distribution, then the std dev of the mean is related to the std dev of the sample set by: stddev_mean = std_dev / sqrt(N) Which is exactly what we want. This results in the error on the mean decreasing with increasing number of samples. Also fix the scaled == -1, aka not counted case.

* perf stat: Remove the limit on repeatPeter Zijlstra2009-09-041-57/+27
| | | | | | | | | | Since we don't need all the individual samples to calculate the error remove both the limit and the storage overhead associated with that. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* perf stat: Change noise calculation to use stddevPeter Zijlstra2009-09-041-101/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current noise computation does: \Sum abs(n_i - avg(n)) * N^-1.5 Which is (afaik) not a regular noise function, and needs the complete sample set available to post-process. Change this to use a regular stddev computation which can be done by keeping a two sums: stddev = sqrt( 1/N (\Sum n_i^2) - avg(n)^2 ) For which we only need to keep \Sum n_i and \Sum n_i^2.

* perf tools: Librarize trace_event() helperFrederic Weisbecker2009-08-161-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Librarize trace_event() helper so that perf trace can use it too. Also clean up the debug.h includes a bit. It's not good to have it included in perf.h because it doesn't make it flexible against other headers it may need (headers that can also depend on perf.h and then create a recursive header dependency).

* perf_counter tools: Reduce perf stat measurement overhead/skewPaul Mackerras2009-06-291-14/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Vince Weaver reported a 'perf stat' measurement overhead in the count of retired instructions, which can amount to a +6000 instructions inflated count in the reported count. At present, perf stat creates its counters on the perf process. Thus the counters count the fork and various other activity in both the parent and child, such as the resolver overhead for resolving PLT entries for any libc functions that haven't been called before, such as execvp. This reduces the overhead by creating the counters on the child process after the fork, using a couple of pipes to synchronize so that the child process waits until the parent has created the counters before doing the exec. To eliminate the PLT resolution overhead on calling execvp, this does a dummy execvp first which will always fail. With this, the overhead of executing a program goes down from over 4800 instructions to about 90 instructions on powerpc (32-bit). This was measured with a statically-linked program written in assembler which only does the 3 instructions needed to call _exit(0).

* perf_counter tools: Define and use our own u64, s64 etc. definitionsPaul Mackerras2009-06-191-31/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On 64-bit powerpc, __u64 is defined to be unsigned long rather than unsigned long long. This causes compiler warnings every time we print a __u64 value with %Lx. Rather than changing __u64, we define our own u64 to be unsigned long long on all architectures, and similarly s64 as signed long long. For consistency we also define u32, s32, u16, s16, u8 and s8. These definitions are put in a new header, types.h, because these definitions are needed in util/string.h and util/symbol.h. The main change here is the mechanical change of __[us]{64,32,16,8} to remove the "__". The other changes are: * Create types.h * Include types.h in perf.h, util/string.h and util/symbol.h * Add types.h to the LIB_H definition in Makefile * Added (u64) casts in process_overflow_event() and print_sym_table() to kill two remaining warnings.

* perf stat: Add feature to run and measure a command multiple timesIngo Molnar2009-06-131-65/+194
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the --repeat <n> feature to perf stat, which repeats a given command up to a 100 times, collects the stats and calculates an average and a stddev. For example, the following oneliner 'perf stat' command runs hackbench 5 times and prints a tabulated result of all metrics, with averages and noise levels (in percentage) printed: aldebaran:~/linux/linux/tools/perf> ./perf stat --repeat 5 ~/hackbench 10 Time: 0.117 Time: 0.108 Time: 0.089 Time: 0.088 Time: 0.100 Performance counter stats for '/home/mingo/hackbench 10' (5 runs): 1243.989586 task-clock-msecs # 10.460 CPUs ( +- 4.720% ) 47706 context-switches # 0.038 M/sec ( +- 19.706% ) 387 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec ( +- 3.608% ) 17793 page-faults # 0.014 M/sec ( +- 0.354% ) 3770941606 cycles # 3031.329 M/sec ( +- 4.621% ) 1566372416 instructions # 0.415 IPC ( +- 2.703% ) 16783421 cache-references # 13.492 M/sec ( +- 5.202% ) 7128590 cache-misses # 5.730 M/sec ( +- 7.420% ) 0.118924455 seconds time elapsed. The goal of this feature is to allow the reliance on these accurate statistics and to know how many times a command has to be repeated for the noise to go down to an acceptable level. (The -v option can be used to see a line printed out as each run progresses.)

* perf_counter tools: Propagate signals properlyPeter Zijlstra2009-06-101-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently report and stat catch SIGINT (and others) without altering their exit state. This means that things like: while :; do perf stat ./foo ; done Loops become hard-to-interrupt, because bash never sees perf terminate due to interruption. Fix this.

* perf_counter tools: Move from Documentation/perf_counter/ to tools/perf/Ingo Molnar2009-06-061-0/+339
Several people have suggested that 'perf' has become a full-fledged tool that should be moved out of Documentation/. Move it to the (new) tools/ directory.
