* perf sched: Fix documentation for timehistTakuya Yamamoto2018-04-121-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | Fixed a incorrect option and usage to those shown by "perf sched timehist -h", i.e. the default is really --call-graph, which is equivalent to -g.

* perf tools: Correct title markers for asciidoctorTakashi Iwai2018-03-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | I've tested to process the perf man pages with asciidoctor that is picker than asciidoc, and it revealed minor syntax errors in some documents. Namely, the title markers aren't aligned with the previous line, hence asciidoctor didn't recognize as titles. This patch corrects these markers to be processed properly.

* perf sched timehist: Add -I/--idle-hist optionNamhyung Kim2016-12-151-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The --idle-hist option is to analyze system idle state so which process makes cpu to go idle. If this option is specified, non-idle events will be skipped and processes switching to/from idle will be shown. This option is mostly useful when used with --summary(-only) option. In the idle-time summary view, idle time is accounted to previous thread which is run before idle task. The example output looks like following: Idle-time summary comm parent sched-out idle-time min-idle avg-idle max-idle stddev migrations (count) (msec) (msec) (msec) (msec) % -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- rcu_preempt[7] 2 95 550.872 0.011 5.798 23.146 7.63 0 migration/1[16] 2 1 15.558 15.558 15.558 15.558 0.00 0 khugepaged[39] 2 1 3.062 3.062 3.062 3.062 0.00 0 kworker/0:1H[124] 2 2 4.728 0.611 2.364 4.116 74.12 0 systemd-journal[167] 1 1 4.510 4.510 4.510 4.510 0.00 0 kworker/u16:3[558] 2 13 74.737 0.080 5.749 12.960 21.96 0 irq/34-iwlwifi[628] 2 21 118.403 0.032 5.638 23.990 24.00 0 kworker/u17:0[673] 2 1 3.523 3.523 3.523 3.523 0.00 0 dbus-daemon[722] 1 1 6.743 6.743 6.743 6.743 0.00 0 ifplugd[741] 1 1 58.826 58.826 58.826 58.826 0.00 0 wpa_supplicant[1490] 1 1 13.302 13.302 13.302 13.302 0.00 0 wpa_actiond[1492] 1 2 4.064 0.168 2.032 3.896 91.72 0 dockerd[1500] 1 1 0.055 0.055 0.055 0.055 0.00 0 ...

* perf sched: Add compact display optionJiri Olsa2016-04-131-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add compact map display that does not output the whole cpu matrix, only cpus that got event. $ perf sched map --compact *A0 1082427.094098 secs A0 => perf:19404 (CPU 2) A0 *. 1082427.094127 secs . => swapper:0 (CPU 1) A0 . *B0 1082427.094174 secs B0 => rcuos/2:25 (CPU 3) A0 . *. 1082427.094177 secs *C0 . . 1082427.094187 secs C0 => migration/2:21 C0 *A0 . 1082427.094193 secs *. A0 . 1082427.094195 secs *D0 A0 . 1082427.094402 secs D0 => rngd:968 *. A0 . 1082427.094406 secs . *E0 . 1082427.095221 secs E0 => kworker/1:1:5333 . E0 *F0 1082427.095227 secs F0 => xterm:3342 It helps to display sane output for small thread loads on big cpu servers.

* perf report: Accept fifos as input fileRobert Richter2011-12-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The default input file for perf report is not handled the same way as perf record does it for its output file. This leads to unexpected behavior of perf report, etc. E.g.: # perf record -a -e cpu-cycles sleep 2 | perf report | cat failed to open perf.data: No such file or directory (try 'perf record' first) While perf record writes to a fifo, perf report expects perf.data to be read. This patch changes this to accept fifos as input file. Applies to the following commands: perf annotate perf buildid-list perf evlist perf kmem perf lock perf report perf sched perf script perf timechart Also fixes char const* -> const char* type declaration for filename strings. v2: * Prevent potential null pointer access to input_name in builtin-report.c.

* perf: Add 'perf sched' toolIngo Molnar2009-09-131-0/+25
This turn-key tool allows scheduler measurements to be conducted and the results be displayed numerically. First baby step towards that goal: clone the new command off of perf trace. Fix a few other details along the way: - add (minimal) perf trace documentation - reorder a few places - list perf trace in the mainporcelain list as well as it's a very useful utility.
