Add two user events for AUX area tracing. PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO contains metadata, consisting primarily the type of the AUX area tracing data plus some amount of architecture-specific information. There should be only one PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO event. PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE identifies AUX area tracing data copied from the mmapped AUX area tracing region. The actual data is not part of the event but immediately follows it. Signed-off-by:

This patch supports the addition to the kernel of AUX area buffers that can be mmapped separately from the perf-events buffer. The AUX buffer can be configured to contain hardware-produced trace information. The first implementation will support Intel BTS and Intel PT. One auxtrace buffer is mmapped per perf-events buffer. If the requested auxtrace buffer size is zero, which it will be until further support is added, then no auxtrace mmapping is attempted. Signed-off-by:

When converting int values, perf first extractes it to a ulonglong, then feeds it to babeltrace as a signed value. For negative 32 bit values (for example, return values of failed syscalls), the extracted data should be something like 0xfffffffe (-2). It becomes a large int64 value. Babeltrace denies to insert it with bt_ctf_field_signed_integer_set_value() because it is larger than 0x7fffffff, the largest positive value a 32 bit int can be. This patch introduces adjust_signedness(), which fills high bits of ulonglong with 1 if the value is negative. Signed-off-by:

Some parameters of syscall tracepoints named as 'nr', 'event', etc. When dealing with them, perf convert to ctf meets some problem: 1. If a parameter with name 'nr', it will duplicate syscall's common field 'nr'. One such syscall is io_submit(). 2. If a parameter with name 'event', it is denied to be inserted because 'event' is a CTF spec keyword[1]. One such syscall is epoll_ctl. This patch appends '_dupl_X' suffix to avoid problem 1, prepend a '_' prefix to avoid problem 2. [1] http://diamon.org/docs/ctf/v1.8.2/#specC.1.2Signed-off-by: -

For big data files the size of data allocated for stream instance could get really high. It's needed to flush the data out of the stream once in a while. Unfortunately there's no size indication in the stream object, so we govern the flush based on the number of stored events. Current flush limit is set ot 100000 events. Reviewed-by:

Currently we store the data into single data strea/file. The cpu if data is stored within the event sample. The lttng puts the CPU number that belongs to the event into the packet context instead into the event. This patch makes sure that the trace produce by perf does look the same way. We now use one stream per-CPU. Having it all in one stream increased the total size of the resulting file. The test went from 416KiB (with perf_cpu event member) to 24MiB due to the required (and pointless) flush. With the per-cpu streams the total size went up to 588KiB. Signed-off-by:

Introduce an 'alias' field to 'struct format_field' to be able to use alternative name for the field. It is initialized with same string pointer as 'name' field. The free logic checks the 'alias' pointer being reset by user and frees it. This will be handy when converting data into CTF, where each field within event needs to have a unique name (while this is not required for tracepoint). Converter can easily assign unique name into the format_field struct. Suggested-by:

The first argument passed to find_probe_point_lazy() should be CU die, which will be passed to die_walk_lines() when lazy_line matches. Currently, when we probe with lazy_line pattern to file without function name, NULL pointer is passed and causes a segment fault.

When perf probe searched in a debuginfo file and failed, it tried with an alternative, in function get_alternative_probe_event(): memcpy(tmp, &pev->point, sizeof(*tmp)); memset(&pev->point, 0, sizeof(pev->point)); In this case, it drops the retprobe flag and forgets to set it back in find_alternative_probe_point(), so the problem occurs.

The perf kmem command records and analyze kernel memory allocation only for SLAB objects. This patch implement a simple page allocator analyzer using kmem:mm_page_alloc and kmem:mm_page_free events. It adds two new options of --slab and --page. The --slab option is for analyzing SLAB allocator and that's what perf kmem currently does. The new --page option enables page allocator events and analyze kernel memory usage in page unit. Currently, 'stat --alloc' subcommand is implemented only. If none of these --slab nor --page is specified, --slab is implied. First run 'perf kmem record' to generate a suitable perf.data file: # perf kmem record --page sleep 5 Then run 'perf kmem stat' to postprocess the perf.data file: # perf kmem stat --page --alloc --line 10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PFN | Total alloc (KB) | Hits | Order | Mig.type | GFP flags ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4045014 | 16 | 1 | 2 | RECLAIM | 00285250 4143980 | 16 | 1 | 2 | RECLAIM | 00285250 3938658 | 16 | 1 | 2 | RECLAIM | 00285250 4045400 | 16 | 1 | 2 | RECLAIM | 00285250 3568708 | 16 | 1 | 2 | RECLAIM | 00285250 3729824 | 16 | 1 | 2 | RECLAIM | 00285250 3657210 | 16 | 1 | 2 | RECLAIM | 00285250 4120750 | 16 | 1 | 2 | RECLAIM | 00285250 3678850 | 16 | 1 | 2 | RECLAIM | 00285250 3693874 | 16 | 1 | 2 | RECLAIM | 00285250 ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY (page allocator) ======================== Total allocation requests : 44,260 [ 177,256 KB ] Total free requests : 117 [ 468 KB ] Total alloc+freed requests : 49 [ 196 KB ] Total alloc-only requests : 44,211 [ 177,060 KB ] Total free-only requests : 68 [ 272 KB ] Total allocation failures : 0 [ 0 KB ] Order Unmovable Reclaimable Movable Reserved CMA/Isolated ----- ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ 0 32 . 44,210 . . 1 . . . . . 2 . 18 . . . 3 . . . . . 4 . . . . . 5 . . . . . 6 . . . . . 7 . . . . . 8 . . . . . 9 . . . . . 10 . . . . .

The struct page is opaque for userspace tools, so it'd be better to save pfn in order to identify page frames. The textual output of $debugfs/tracing/trace file remains unchanged and only raw (binary) data format is changed - but thanks to libtraceevent, userspace tools which deal with the raw data (like perf and trace-cmd) can parse the format easily. So impact on the userspace will also be minimal. Signed-off-by:

Dan Carpenter pointed out that the control flow in pt_pmu_hw_init() is a bit messy: for example the kfree(de_attrs) is entirely superfluous. Another problem is the inconsistent mixing of label based and direct return error handling. Add modern, label based error handling instead and clean up the code a bit as well. Note that we'll still do a kfree(NULL) in the normal case - this does not matter as this is an init path and kfree() returns early if it sees a NULL. Reported-by:

Since we store the entire perf_event_attr in the EVENT_DESC section we also already store the used clockid in the data file. Signed-off-by: -

perf sched replay: Use replay_repeat to calculate the runavg of cpu usage instead of the default value 10 Since sched->replay_repeat is set to 10 as default, the sched->run_avg, sched->runavg_cpu_usage, and sched->runavg_parent_cpu_usage all use 10 to calculate their value. However, the replay_repeat can be changed to other value by using -r option, so the calculation above should use replay_repeat to achieve more accurate results instead of the default value 10.

Enable to use perf.data when it is not owned by current user or root. Example: $ ls -al perf.data -rw------- 1 Yunlong.Song Yunlong.Song 5321918 Mar 25 15:14 perf.data $ sudo id uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),64(pkcs11) Before this patch: $ sudo perf sched replay -f run measurement overhead: 98 nsecs sleep measurement overhead: 52909 nsecs the run test took 1000015 nsecs the sleep test took 1054253 nsecs File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override) As shown above, the -f option does not work at all. After this patch: $ sudo perf sched replay -f run measurement overhead: 221 nsecs sleep measurement overhead: 40514 nsecs the run test took 1000003 nsecs the sleep test took 1056098 nsecs nr_run_events: 10 nr_sleep_events: 1562 nr_wakeup_events: 5 task 0 ( :1: 1), nr_events: 1 task 1 ( :2: 2), nr_events: 1 task 2 ( :3: 3), nr_events: 1 ... ... task 1549 ( :163132: 163132), nr_events: 1 task 1550 ( :163540: 163540), nr_events: 1 task 1551 ( <unknown>: 0), nr_events: 10 ------------------------------------------------------------ #1 : 50.198, ravg: 50.20, cpu: 2335.18 / 2335.18 #2 : 219.099, ravg: 67.09, cpu: 2835.11 / 2385.17 #3 : 238.626, ravg: 84.24, cpu: 3278.26 / 2474.48 #4 : 200.364, ravg: 95.85, cpu: 2977.41 / 2524.77 #5 : 176.882, ravg: 103.96, cpu: 2801.35 / 2552.43 #6 : 191.093, ravg: 112.67, cpu: 2813.70 / 2578.56 #7 : 189.448, ravg: 120.35, cpu: 2809.21 / 2601.62 #8 : 200.637, ravg: 128.38, cpu: 2849.91 / 2626.45 #9 : 248.338, ravg: 140.37, cpu: 4380.61 / 2801.87 #10 : 511.139, ravg: 177.45, cpu: 3077.73 / 2829.45 As shown above, the -f option really works now. Besides for replay, -f option can also work for latency and map. Signed-off-by:
