* perf record: Add record.build-id config optionNamhyung Kim2015-12-151-1/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Post processing at 'perf record' takes a long time on big machines. What it does is to find the build-id of binaries found in the event stream, so that it can make sure, at 'report' time, that the symtabs (be it ELF, kallsyms, etc) being used to resolve symbols are the ones matching the binaries found at 'record' time. Sometimes we just want to skip this processing of events at the end of the session to get quicker results, making sure the binaries haven't changed from 'record' to 'report' time. Add a new config option to control this behavior. The record.build-id config variable can have one of the following values: - cache: post-process data and save/update the binaries into the build-id cache (in ~/.debug). This is the default. - no-cache: post-process the data but not update the build-id cache. Same effect as using the -N option. - skip: skip post-processing and do not update the cache. Same effect as using the -B option.

* perf script: Enable printing of branch stackStephane Eranian2015-10-291-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch improves perf script by enabling printing of the branch stack via the 'brstack' and 'brstacksym' arguments to the field selection option -F. The option is off by default and operates only if the perf.data file has branch stack content. The branches are printed in to/from pairs. The most recent branch is printed first. The number of branch entries vary based on the underlying hardware and filtering used. The brstack prints FROM/TO addresses in raw hexadecimal format. The brstacksym prints FROM/TO addresses in symbolic form wherever possible. $ perf script -F ip,brstack 5d3000 0x401aa0/0x5d2000/M/-/-/-/0 ... $ perf script -F ip,brstacksym 4011e0 noploop+0x0/noploop+0x0/P/-/-/0 The notation F/T/M/X/A/C describes the attributes of the branch.

* perf stat: Reduce min --interval-print to 10msKan Liang2015-10-021-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The --interval-print parameter was limited to 100ms. However, for example, 10ms is required to do sophisticated bandwidth analysis using uncore events. The test shows that the overhead of the system-wide uncore monitoring with 10ms interval is only ~2%. So this patch reduces the minimal interval-print allowd to 10ms. But 10ms may not work well for all cases. For example, when the cpus/threads number is very large, for system-wide core event monitoring the overhead could be high. To handle this issue, a warning will be displayed when the interval-print is set between 10ms to 100ms. So users can make a decision according to their specific cases. # perf stat -e uncore_imc_1/cas_count_read/ -a --interval-print 10 -- sleep 1 print interval < 100ms.

* perf intel-pt: Add mispred-all config option to aid use with autofdoAdrian Hunter2015-09-281-0/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | autofdo incorrectly expects branch flags to include either mispred or predicted. In fact mispred = predicted = 0 is valid and means the flags are not supported, which they aren't by Intel PT. To make autofdo work, add a config option which will cause Intel PT decoder to set the mispred flag on all branches. Below is an example of using Intel PT with autofdo. The example is also added to the Intel PT documentation. It requires autofdo (https://github.com/google/autofdo) and gcc version 5. The bubble sort example is from the AutoFDO tutorial (https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/AutoFDO/Tutorial) amended to take the number of elements as a parameter. $ gcc-5 -O3 sort.c -o sort_optimized $ ./sort_optimized 30000 Bubble sorting array of 30000 elements 2254 ms $ cat ~/.perfconfig [intel-pt] mispred-all $ perf record -e intel_pt//u ./sort 3000 Bubble sorting array of 3000 elements 58 ms [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 3.939 MB perf.data ] $ perf inject -i perf.data -o inj --itrace=i100usle --strip $ ./create_gcov --binary=./sort --profile=inj --gcov=sort.gcov -gcov_version=1 $ gcc-5 -O3 -fauto-profile=sort.gcov sort.c -o sort_autofdo $ ./sort_autofdo 30000 Bubble sorting array of 30000 elements 2155 ms Note there is currently no advantage to using Intel PT instead of LBR, but that may change in the future if greater use is made of the data.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for generating branch stack context for PT samples. The decoder reports a configurable number of branches as branch context for each sample. Internally it keeps track of them by using a simple sliding window. We also flush the last branch buffer on each sample to avoid overlapping intervals. This is useful for: - Reporting accurate basic block edge frequencies through the perf report branch view - Using with --branch-history to get the wider context of samples - Other users of LBRs Also the Documentation is updated. Examples: Record with Intel PT: perf record -e intel_pt//u ls Branch stacks are used by default if synthesized so: perf report --itrace=ile is the same as: perf report --itrace=ile -b Branch history can be requested also: perf report --itrace=igle --branch-history Based-on-patch-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1443186956-18718-15-git-send-email-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

* perf auxtrace: Fix 'instructions' period of zeroAdrian Hunter2015-09-281-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instruction tracing options (i.e. --itrace) include an option for sampling instructions at an arbitrary period. e.g. --itrace=i10us means make an 'instructions' sample for every 10us of trace. Currently the logic does not distinguish between a period of zero and no period being specified at all, so it gets treated as the default period which is 100000. That doesn't really make sense. Fix it so that zero period is accepted and treated as meaning "as often as possible". In the case of Intel PT that is the same as a period of 1 and a unit of 'instructions' (i.e. --itrace=i1i).

* perf record: Add ability to name registers to recordStephane Eranian2015-08-311-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch modifies the -I/--int-regs option to enablepassing the name of the registers to sample on interrupt. Registers can be specified by their symbolic names. For instance on x86, --intr-regs=ax,si. The motivation is to reduce the size of the perf.data file and the overhead of sampling by only collecting the registers useful to a specific analysis. For instance, for value profiling, sampling only the registers used to passed arguements to functions. With no parameter, the --intr-regs still records all possible registers based on the architecture. To name registers, it is necessary to use the long form of the option, i.e., --intr-regs: $ perf record --intr-regs=si,di,r8,r9 ..... To record any possible registers: $ perf record -I ..... $ perf report --intr-regs ... To display the register, one can use perf report -D To list the available registers: $ perf record --intr-regs=\? available registers: AX BX CX DX SI DI BP SP IP FLAGS CS SS R8 R9 R10 R11 R12 R13 R14 R15 Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1441039273-16260-4-git-send-email-eranian@google.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

* perf tools: Add Intel BTS supportAdrian Hunter2015-08-211-0/+86
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Intel BTS support fits within the new auxtrace infrastructure. Recording is supporting by identifying the Intel BTS PMU, parsing options and setting up events. Decoding is supported by queuing up trace data by thread and then decoding synchronously delivering synthesized event samples into the session processing for tools to consume.
