For debugging low level code interacting with the CPU it is often useful to trace the MSR read/writes. This gives a concise summary of PMU and other operations. perf has an ad-hoc way to do this using trace_printk, but it's somewhat limited (and also now spews ugly boot messages when enabled) Instead define real trace points for all MSR accesses. This adds three new trace points: read_msr and write_msr and rdpmc. They also report if the access faulted (if *_safe is used) This allows filtering and triggering on specific MSR values, which allows various more advanced debugging techniques. All the values are well defined in the CPU documentation. The trace can be post processed with Documentation/trace/postprocess/decode_msr.py to add symbolic MSR names to the trace. I only added it to native MSR accesses in C, not paravirtualized or in entry*.S (which is not too interesting) Originally the patch kit moved the MSRs out of line. This uses an alternative approach recommended by Steven Rostedt of only moving the trace calls out of line, but open coding the access to the jump label. Signed-off-by:

Steven recommended open coding access to tracepoint->key to add trace points to headers. Unfortunately this is difficult for some headers (such as x86 asm/msr.h) because including tracepoint.h includes so many other headers that it causes include loops. The main problem is the include of linux/rcupdate.h, which pulls in a lot of other headers. The rcu header is only needed when actually defining trace points. Move the struct tracepoint into a separate tracepoint-defs.h header that can be included without pulling in all of RCU. Signed-off-by:

Andi Kleen authored
asm/atomic.h doesn't really need asm/processor.h anymore. Everything it uses has moved to other header files. So remove that include. processor.h is a nasty header that includes lots of other headers and makes it prone to include loops. Removing the include here makes asm/atomic.h a "leaf" header that can be safely included in most other headers. The only fallout is in the lib/atomic tester which relied on this implicit include. Give it an explicit include. (the include is in ifdef because the user is also in ifdef) Signed-off-by:

In case we monitor events system wide, we get EXIT event (when configured) twice for each task that exited. Note doubled lines with same pid/tid in following example: $ sudo ./perf record -a ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.480 MB perf.data (2518 samples) ] $ sudo ./perf report -D | grep EXIT 0 60290687567581 0x59910 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1250:1250):(1250:1250) 0 60290687568354 0x59948 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1250:1250):(1250:1250) 0 60290687988744 0x59ad8 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1250:1250):(1250:1250) 0 60290687989198 0x59b10 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1250:1250):(1250:1250) 1 60290692567895 0x62af0 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1253:1253):(1253:1253) 1 60290692568322 0x62b28 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1253:1253):(1253:1253) 2 60290692739276 0x69a18 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1252:1252):(1252:1252) 2 60290692739910 0x69a50 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1252:1252):(1252:1252) The reason is that the cpu contexts are processes each time we call perf_event_task. I'm changing the perf_event_aux logic to serve task_ctx and cpu contexts separately, which ensure we don't get EXIT event generated twice on same cpu context. This does not affect other auxiliary events, as they don't use task_ctx at all. Signed-off-by:

When perf report on TUI was called with -S symbol filter, it should update nr entries even if min_pcnt is 0. IIRC the reason was to update nr entries after applying minimum percent threshold. But if symbol filter was given on command line (with -S option), it should use hists->nr_non_filtered_entries instead of hists->nr_entries. So this patch fixes a bug of navigating hists browser that the cursor goes beyond the number of entries when -S (or similar) option is used. Signed-off-by:

If user gives a filter, perf marks the corresponding column elided and omits the output. But it should process and aggregates samples using the field, otherwise samples will be aggregated as if the column was not there resulted in incorrect output. For example, I'd like to set a filter on native_write_msr_safe. The original overhead of the function is negligible. $ perf report | grep native_write_msr_safe 0.00% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] native_write_msr_safe 0.00% perf [kernel.vmlinux] native_write_msr_safe However adding -S option gives different output. $ perf report -S native_write_msr_safe --percentage absolute | \ > grep -e swapper -e perf 51.47% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] 4.14% perf [kernel.vmlinux] Since it aggregated samples using comm and dso only. In fact, the above values are same when it sorts with -s comm,dso. $ perf report -s comm,dso | grep -e swapper -e perf 51.47% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] 4.14% perf [kernel.vmlinux] This resulted in TUI failure with -ERANGE since it tries to increase sample hit count for annotation with wrong symbols due to incorrect aggregation. This patch fixes it not to skip elided fields when comparing samples in order to insert them to the hists.

The --kernel option of perf buildid-list tool should show the running kernel buildid. The functionality has been lost during other changes of the related code. The build_id__sprintf() function should return length of the build-id string, but it was the length of the build-id raw data instead. Due to that, some return value checking caused that the final string was not printed out. With this patch the build_id__sprintf() returns the correct value, so the --kernel option works again.

However, user would expect it success in both case because perf is able to find probe points actually. The reason is because perf won't utilize module's full path if it failed to open debuginfo. In: convert_to_probe_trace_events -> find_probe_trace_events_from_map -> get_target_map -> kernel_get_module_map -> machine__findnew_module_map -> map_groups__find_by_name map_groups__find_by_name() is able to find the map of that module, but this information is found from /proc/module before it knows the real path of the offline module. Therefore, the map->dso->long_name is set to something like '[mymodule]', which prevent dso__load() find the real path of the module file. In another aspect, if dso__load() can get the offline module through buildid cache, it can read symble table from that ko. Even if debuginfo is not available, 'perf probe' can success if the '.symtab' can be found. This patch improves machine__findnew_module_map(): when dso->long_name is leading with '[' (doesn't find path of module when parsing /proc/modules), fixes it by dso__set_long_name(), so following dso__load() is possible to find the symbol table. This patch won't interfere with buildid matching. Here is the test result: # ./perf probe -m ./mymodule.ko my_func Added new event: probe:my_func (on my_func in /home/wangnan/kmodule/mymodule.ko) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:my_func -aR sleep 1 # ./perf probe -d '*' Removed event: probe:my_func # mv ./mymodule.{ko,.bak} # mv ./moduleb.ko mymodule.ko # ./perf probe -m ./mymodule.ko my_func /home/wangnan/kmodule/mymodule.ko with build id 326ab42550ef3d24944f53c817533728367effeb not found, continuing without symbols Failed to find symbol my_func in /home/wangnan/kmodule/mymodule.ko Error: Failed to add events. # ./perf probe -v -m ./mymodule.ko my_func probe-definition(0): my_func symbol:my_func file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null) 0 arguments Could not open debuginfo.

Ingo reported following build failure: $ make clean install ... CC plugin_kmem.o fixdep: error opening depfile: ./.plugin_hrtimer.o.d: No such file or directory /home/mingo/tip/tools/build/Makefile.build:77: recipe for target 'plugin_hrtimer.o' failed make[3]: *** [plugin_hrtimer.o] Error 2 Makefile:189: recipe for target 'plugin_hrtimer-in.o' failed make[2]: *** [plugin_hrtimer-in.o] Error 2 Makefile.perf:414: recipe for target 'libtraceevent_plugins' failed make[1]: *** [libtraceevent_plugins] Error 2 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... Currently we have the install-traceevent-plugins target being dependent on $(LIBTRACEEVENT), which will actualy not build any plugin. So the install-traceevent-plugins target itself will try to build plugins, but.. Plugins built is also triggered by perf build itself via libtraceevent_plugins target. This might cause a race having one make thread removing temp files from another and result in above error. Fixing this by having proper plugins build dependency before installing plugins.
