* perf stat: Don't report a null stalled cycles per insn metricKim Phillips2020-02-101-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For data collected on machines with front end stalled cycles supported, such as found on modern AMD CPU families, commit 146540fb545b ("perf stat: Always separate stalled cycles per insn") introduces a new line in CSV output with a leading comma that upsets some automated scripts. Scripts have to use "-e ex_ret_instr" to work around this issue, after upgrading to a version of perf with that commit. We could add "if (have_frontend_stalled && !config->csv_sep)" to the not (total && avg) else clause, to emphasize that CSV users are usually scripts, and are written to do only what is needed, i.e., they wouldn't typically invoke "perf stat" without specifying an explicit event list. But - let alone CSV output - why should users now tolerate a constant 0-reporting extra line in regular terminal output?: BEFORE: $ sudo perf stat --all-cpus -einstructions,cycles -- sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 181,110,981 instructions # 0.58 insn per cycle # 0.00 stalled cycles per insn 309,876,469 cycles 1.002202582 seconds time elapsed The user would not like to see the now permanent: "0.00 stalled cycles per insn" line fixture, as it gives no useful information. So this patch removes the printing of the zeroed stalled cycles line altogether, almost reverting the very original commit fb4605ba47e7 ("perf stat: Check for frontend stalled for metrics"), which seems like it was written to normalize --metric-only column output of common Intel machines at the time: modern Intel machines have ceased to support the genericised frontend stalled metrics AFAICT.

* perf maps: Add missing unlock to maps__insert() error caseCengiz Can2020-01-311-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | `tools/perf/util/map.c` has a function named `maps__insert` that acquires a write lock if its in multithread context. Even though this lock is released when function successfully completes, there's a branch that is executed when `maps_by_name == NULL` that returns from this function without releasing the write lock. Added an `up_write` to release the lock when this happens.

* perf parse: Copy string to perf_evsel_config_termLeo Yan2020-01-303-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | perf with CoreSight fails to record trace data with command: perf record -e cs_etm/@tmc_etr0/u --per-thread ls failed to set sink "" on event cs_etm/@tmc_etr0/u with 21 (Is a directory)/perf/ This failure is root caused with the commit 1dc925568f01 ("perf parse: Add a deep delete for parse event terms"). The log shows, cs_etm fails to parse the sink attribution; cs_etm event relies on the event configuration to pass sink name, but the event specific configuration data cannot be passed properly with flow: get_config_terms() ADD_CONFIG_TERM(DRV_CFG, term->val.str); __t->val.str = term->val.str; `> __t->val.str is assigned to term->val.str; parse_events_terms__purge() parse_events_term__delete() zfree(&term->val.str); `> term->val.str is freed and assigned to NULL pointer; cs_etm_set_sink_attr() sink = __t->val.str; `> sink string has been freed. To fix this issue, in the function get_config_terms(), this patch changes to use strdup() for allocation a new duplicate string rather than directly assignment string pointer. This patch addes a new field 'free_str' in the data structure perf_evsel_config_term; 'free_str' is set to true when the union is used as a string pointer; thus it can tell perf_evsel__free_config_terms() to free the string.

* perf parse: Refactor 'struct perf_evsel_config_term'Leo Yan2020-01-303-28/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The struct perf_evsel_config_term::val is a union which contains fields 'callgraph', 'drv_cfg' and 'branch' as string pointers. This leads to the complex code logic for handling every type's string separately, and it's hard to release string as a general way. This patch refactors the structure to add a common field 'str' in the 'val' union as string pointer and remove the other three fields 'callgraph', 'drv_cfg' and 'branch'. Without passing field name, the patch simplifies the string handling with macro ADD_CONFIG_TERM_STR() for string pointer assignment. This patch fixes multiple warnings of line over 80 characters detected by checkpatch tool.

* perf tools: Use %define api.pure full instead of %pure-parserJiri Olsa2020-01-142-2/+3

* perf map: Set kmap->kmaps backpointer for main kernel map chunksArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2019-12-201-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a map is create to represent the main kernel area (vmlinux) with map__new2() we allocate an extra area to store a pointer to the 'struct maps' for the kernel maps, so that we can access that struct when loading ELF files or kallsyms, as we will need to split it in multiple maps, one per kernel module or ELF section (such as ".init.text"). So when map->dso->kernel is non-zero, it is expected that map__kmap(map)->kmaps to be set to the tree of kernel maps (modules, chunks of the main kernel, bpf progs put in place via PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL, the main kernel). This was not the case when we were splitting the main kernel into chunks for its ELF sections, which ended up making 'perf report --children' processing a perf.data file with callchains to trip on __map__is_kernel(), when we press ENTER to see the popup menu for main histogram entries that starts at a symbol in the ".init.text" ELF section, e.g.: - 8.83% 0.00% swapper [kernel.vmlinux].init.text [k] start_kernel start_kernel cpu_startup_entry do_idle cpuidle_enter cpuidle_enter_state intel_idle Fix it.

* perf header: Fix false warning when there are no duplicate cache entriesMichael Petlan2019-12-111-15/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before this patch, perf expected that there might be NPROC*4 unique cache entries at max, however, it also expected that some of them would be shared and/or of the same size, thus the final number of entries would be reduced to be lower than NPROC*4. In case the number of entries hadn't been reduced (was NPROC*4), the warning was printed. However, some systems might have unusual cache topology, such as the following two-processor KVM guest: cpu level shared_cpu_list size 0 1 0 32K 0 1 0 64K 0 2 0 512K 0 3 0 8192K 1 1 1 32K 1 1 1 64K 1 2 1 512K 1 3 1 8192K This KVM guest has 8 (NPROC*4) unique cache entries, which used to make perf printing the message, although there actually aren't "way too many cpu caches". v2: Removing unused argument. v3: Unifying the way we obtain number of cpus. v4: Removed '& UINT_MAX' construct which is redundant.

But with the current upstream, metric events names are not printed properly In power9 platform: command:# ./perf stat --metric-only -M translation -C 0 -I 1000 sleep 2 1.000208486 2.000368863 2.001400558 Similarly in skylake platform: command:./perf stat --metric-only -M Power -I 1000 1.000579994 2.002189493 With current upstream version, issue is with event name comparison logic in find_evsel_group(). Current logic is to compare events belonging to a metric group to the events in perf_evlist. Since the break statement is missing in the loop used for comparison between metric group and perf_evlist events, the loop continues to execute even after getting a pattern match, and end up in discarding the matches. Incase of single metric event belongs to metric group, its working fine, because in case of single event once it compare all events it reaches to end of perf_evlist. Example for single metric event in power9 platform: command:# ./perf stat --metric-only -M branches_per_inst -I 1000 sleep 1 1.000094653 0.2 1.001337059 0.0 This patch fixes the issue by making sure once we found all events belongs to that metric event matched in find_evsel_group(), we successfully break from that loop by adding corresponding condition.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I forgot to fill in the map_symbol->maps field in append_inlines() which then makes code down the line segfault when trying to deref it. It doesn't make any sense to have an addr_location with its 'map' member not NULL while its 'maps' is NULL, after all al->maps is where al->map is in. It is done that way so that we don't have to have in each 'struct map' a pointer to the 'struct maps' it is in, as we had in the past when we would have 'map->mg', before 'struct maps' was combined with 'struct map_groups', because there was always a one-to-one relationship for these structs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Restructure the event opening in perf stat to cycle through the events by CPU after setting affinity to that CPU. This eliminates IPI overhead in the perf API. We have to loop through the CPU in the outter builtin-stat code instead of leaving that to low level functions. It has to change the weak group fallback strategy slightly. Since we cannot easily undo the opens for other CPUs move the weak group retry to a separate loop.

* perf affinity: Add infrastructure to save/restore affinityAndi Kleen2019-11-284-0/+92
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel perf subsystem has to IPI to the target CPU for many operations. On systems with many CPUs and when managing many events the overhead can be dominated by lots of IPIs. An alternative is to set up CPU affinity in the perf tool, then set up all the events for that CPU, and then move on to the next CPU. Add some affinity management infrastructure to enable such a model. Used in followon patches. Committer notes: Use zfree() in some places, add missing stdbool.h header, some minor coding style changes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | And pick the shortest name: 'struct maps'. The split existed because we used to have two groups of maps, one for functions and one for variables, but that only complicated things, sometimes we needed to figure out what was at some address and then had to first try it on the functions group and if that failed, fall back to the variables one. That split is long gone, so for quite a while we had only one struct maps per struct map_groups, simplify things by combining those structs. First patch is the minimum needed to merge both, follow up patches will rename 'thread->mg' to 'thread->maps', etc. Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-hom6639ro7020o708trhxh59@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
