2020-01-04perf report: Add warning when libunwind not compiled inJin Yao
[ Upstream commit 800d3f561659b5436f8c57e7c26dd1f6928b5615 ] We received a user report that call-graph DWARF mode was enabled in 'perf record' but 'perf report' didn't unwind the callstack correctly. The reason was, libunwind was not compiled in. We can use 'perf -vv' to check the compiled libraries but it would be valuable to report a warning to user directly (especially valuable for a perf newbie). The warning is: Warning: Please install libunwind development packages during the perf build. Both TUI and stdio are supported.

2015-09-28perf report: Make max_stack value allow for synthesized callchainsAdrian Hunter
perf report has an option (--max-stack) to set the maximum stack depth when processing callchains. The option defaults to the hard-coded maximum definition PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH which is 127. The intention of the option is to allow the user to reduce the processing time by reducing the amount of the callchain that is processed. It is also possible, when processing instruction traces, to synthesize callchains. Synthesized callchains do not have the kernel size limitation and are whatever size the user requests, although validation presently prevents the user requested a value greater that 1024. The default value is 16. To allow for synthesized callchains, make the max_stack value at least the same size as the synthesized callchain size.

2015-09-28perf report: Skip events with null branch stacksAdrian Hunter
A non-synthesized event might not have a branch stack if branch stacks have been synthesized (using itrace options). An example of that is when Intel PT records sched_switch events for decoding purposes. Those sched_switch events do not have branch stacks even though the Intel PT decoder may be synthesizing other events that do due to the itrace options.

2015-09-28perf report: Adjust sample type validation for synthesized branch stacksAdrian Hunter
perf report looks at event sample types to determine if branch stacks have been sampled. Adjust the validation to know about instruction tracing options.

2015-09-28perf report: Fix sample type validation for synthesized callchainsAdrian Hunter
Processing instruction tracing data (e.g. Intel PT) can synthesize callchains e.g. $ perf record -e intel_pt//u uname $ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige However perf report's callgraph option gets extra validation, so: $ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige -gflat Error: Selected -g or --branch-history but no callchain data. Did you call 'perf record' without -g? # To display the perf.data header info, # please use --header/--header-only options. # Fix the validation to know about instruction tracing options so above command works. A side-effect of the change is that the default option to accumulate the callchain of child functions comes into force. To get the previous behaviour the --no-children option can be used e.g. $ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige -gflat --no-children Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1443186956-18718-3-git-send-email-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2015-08-10perf tools: Support full source file paths for srclineAndi Kleen
For perf report/script srcline currently only the base file name of the source file is printed. This is a good default because it usually fits on the screen. But in some cases we want to know the full file name, for example to aggregate hits per file. In the later case we need more than the base file name to resolve file naming collisions: for example the kernel source has ~70 files named "core.c" It's also useful as input to post processing tools which want to point to the right file.

2015-06-26perf symbols: Check access permission when reading symbol filesLi Zhang
There 2 problems when reading symbols files: * It doesn't report any errors even if when users specify symbol files which don't exist with --kallsyms or --vmlinux. The result just shows the address without symbols, which is not what is expected. So it's better to report errors and exit the program. * When using command perf report --kallsyms=/proc/kallsyms with a non-root user, symbols are resolved. Then select one symbol and annotate it, it reports the error as the following: Can't annotate __clear_user: No vmlinux file with build id xxx was found. The problem is caused by reading /proc/kcore without access permission. /proc/kcore requires CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability to access, so it needs to change access permission to allow a specific user to read /proc/kcore or use root to execute the perf command. This patch is to report errors when symbol files specified by users don't exist. And check access permission of /proc/kcore when reading it.

2015-06-07perf tools: handle PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLESKan Liang
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!

2015-05-08perf machine: Protect the machine->threads with a rwlockArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
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.

2015-05-01perf report: Fix -T/--threads option to work againNamhyung Kim
The commit 512ae1bd6acb ("perf tools: Consolidate management of default sort orders") changed default value of the 'sort_order' variable to NULL indicating that users don't set any sort keys on the command line. However it missed to update a check in perf_evlist__tty_browse_hists() so that 'perf report -T' cannot show the per-thread values after the normal output. This patch fixes it to work again. Note that the -T option only works on --stdio and neither --sort nor --parent option was given.

2015-02-18perf tools: Enable LBR call stack supportKan Liang
Currently, there are two call chain recording options, fp and dwarf. Haswell has a new feature that utilizes the existing LBR facility to record call chains. Kernel side LBR support code provides this as a third option to record call chains. This patch enables the lbr call stack support on the tooling side. LBR call stack has some limitations: - It reuses current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and branch record can not be enabled at the same time. - It is only available for user-space callchains. However, it also offers some advantages: - LBR call stack can work on user apps which don't have frame-pointers or dwarf debug info compiled. It is a good alternative when nothing else works.

2014-12-01perf callchain: Support handling complete branch stacks as histogramsAndi Kleen
Currently branch stacks can be only shown as edge histograms for individual branches. I never found this display particularly useful. This implements an alternative mode that creates histograms over complete branch traces, instead of individual branches, similar to how normal callgraphs are handled. This is done by putting it in front of the normal callgraph and then using the normal callgraph histogram infrastructure to unify them. This way in complex functions we can understand the control flow that lead to a particular sample, and may even see some control flow in the caller for short functions. Example (simplified, of course for such simple code this is usually not needed), please run this after the whole patchkit is in, as at this point in the patch order there is no --branch-history, that will be added in a patch after this one: tcall.c: volatile a = 10000, b = 100000, c; __attribute__((noinline)) f2() { c = a / b; } __attribute__((noinline)) f1() { f2(); f2(); } main() { int i; for (i = 0; i < 1000000; i++) f1(); } % perf record -b -g ./tsrc/tcall [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.044 MB perf.data (~1923 samples) ] % perf report --no-children --branch-history ... 54.91% tcall.c:6 [.] f2 tcall | |--65.53%-- f2 tcall.c:5 | | | |--70.83%-- f1 tcall.c:11 | | f1 tcall.c:10 | | main tcall.c:18 | | main tcall.c:18 | | main tcall.c:17 | | main tcall.c:17 | | f1 tcall.c:13 | | f1 tcall.c:13 | | f2 tcall.c:7 | | f2 tcall.c:5 | | f1 tcall.c:12 | | f1 tcall.c:12 | | f2 tcall.c:7 | | f2 tcall.c:5 | | f1 tcall.c:11 | | | --29.17%-- f1 tcall.c:12 | f1 tcall.c:12 | f2 tcall.c:7 | f2 tcall.c:5 | f1 tcall.c:11 | f1 tcall.c:10 | main tcall.c:18 | main tcall.c:18 | main tcall.c:17 | main tcall.c:17 | f1 tcall.c:13 | f1 tcall.c:13 | f2 tcall.c:7 | f2 tcall.c:5 | f1 tcall.c:12 The default output is unchanged. This is only implemented in perf report, no change to record or anywhere else. This adds the basic code to report: - add a new "branch" option to the -g option parser to enable this mode - when the flag is set include the LBR into the callstack in machine.c. The rest of the history code is unchanged and doesn't know the difference between LBR entry and normal call entry. - detect overlaps with the callchain - remove small loop duplicates in the LBR Current limitations: - The LBR flags (mispredict etc.) are not shown in the history and LBR entries have no special marker. - It would be nice if annotate marked the LBR entries somehow (e.g. with arrows) v2: Various fixes. v3: Merge further patches into this one. Fix white space. v4: Improve manpage. Address review feedback. v5: Rename functions. Better error message without -g. Fix crash without -b. v6: Rebase v7: Rebase.
