perf script: Support insn output for normal samples · 3ab481a1

Andi Kleen authored Mar 05, 2019

perf script -F +insn was only working for PT traces because the PT
instruction decoder was filling in the insn/insn_len sample attributes.
Support it for non PT samples too on x86 using the existing x86
instruction decoder.

This adds some extra checking to ensure that we don't try to decode
instructions when using perf.data from a different architecture.

perf/core: Restore mmap record type correctly · d9c1bb2f

Stephane Eranian authored Mar 07, 2019

On mmap(), perf_events generates a RECORD_MMAP record and then checks
which events are interested in this record. There are currently 2
versions of mmap records: RECORD_MMAP and RECORD_MMAP2. MMAP2 is larger.
The event configuration controls which version the user level tool
accepts.

If the event->attr.mmap2=1 field then MMAP2 record is returned.  The
perf_event_mmap_output() takes care of this. It checks attr->mmap2 and
corrects the record fields before putting it in the sampling buffer of
the event.  At the end the function restores the modified MMAP record
fields.

The problem is that the function restores the size but not the type.
Thus, if a subsequent event only accepts MMAP type, then it would
instead receive an MMAP2 record with a size of MMAP record.

This patch fixes the problem by restoring the record type on exit.

In preparation to enabling -Wimplicit-fallthrough, mark switch cases
where we are expecting to fall through.

This patch fixes the following warning:

perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix client IMC events return huge result · 8041ffd3

Kan Liang authored Feb 27, 2019

The client IMC bandwidth events currently return very large values:

  $ perf stat -e uncore_imc/data_reads/ -e uncore_imc/data_writes/ -I 10000 -a

  10.000117222 34,788.76 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/
  10.000117222 8.26 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/
  20.000374584 34,842.89 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/
  20.000374584 10.45 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/
  30.000633299 37,965.29 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/
  30.000633299 323.62 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/
  40.000891548 41,012.88 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/

  50.001142480 1,125,899,906,621,494.75 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/
  50.001142480 6.97 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/

The client IMC events are freerunning counters. They still use the
old event encoding format (0x1 for data_read and 0x2 for data write).
The counter bit width is calculated by common code, which assume that
the standard encoding format is used for the freerunning counters.
Error bit width information is calculated.

The patch intends to convert the old client IMC event encoding to the
standard encoding format.

Current common code uses event->attr.config which directly copy from
user space. We should not implicitly modify it for a converted event.
The event->hw.config is used to replace the event->attr.config in
common code.

For client IMC events, the event->attr.config is used to calculate a
converted event with standard encoding format in the custom
event_init(). The converted event is stored in event->hw.config.
For other events of freerunning counters, they already use the standard
encoding format. The same value as event->attr.config is assigned to
event->hw.config in common event_init().

perf/ring_buffer: Use high order allocations for AUX buffers optimistically · 5768402f

Alexander Shishkin authored Feb 15, 2019

Currently, the AUX buffer allocator will use high-order allocations
for PMUs that don't support hardware scatter-gather chaining to ensure
large contiguous blocks of pages, and always use an array of single
pages otherwise.

There is, however, a tangible performance benefit in using larger chunks
of contiguous memory even in the latter case, that comes from not having
to fetch the next page's address at every page boundary. In particular,
a task running under Intel PT on an Atom CPU shows 1.5%-2% less runtime
penalty with a single multi-page output region in snapshot mode (no PMI)
than with multiple single-page output regions, from ~6% down to ~4%. For
the snapshot mode it does make a difference as it is intended to run over
long periods of time.

For this reason, change the allocation policy to always optimistically
start with the highest possible order when allocating pages for the AUX
buffer, desceding until the allocation succeeds or order zero allocation
fails.
