Jin Yao f3a60646cc perf report: Introduce --inline option
It takes some time to look for inline stack for callgraph addresses.  So
it provides new option "--inline" to let user decide if enable this
feature.

  --inline:

  If a callgraph address belongs to an inlined function, the inline stack
  will be printed. Each entry is the inline function name or file/line.

Jin Yao a64489c56c perf report: Find the inline stack for a given address
It would be useful for perf to support a mode to query the inline stack
for a given callgraph address. This would simplify finding the right
code in code that does a lot of inlining.

The srcline.c has contained the code which supports to translate the
address to filename:line_nr. This patch just extends the function to let
it support getting the inline stacks.

It introduces the inline_list which will store the inline function
result (filename:line_nr and funcname).

If BFD lib is not supported, the result is only filename:line_nr.

Jin Yao 5580338d0f perf report: Refactor common code in srcline.c
Introduce dso__name() and filename_split() out of existing code because
these codes will be used in several places in next patch.

For filename_split(), it may also solve a potential memory leak in
existing code. In existing addr2line(),

        sep = strchr(filename, ':');
        if (sep) {
                *sep++ = '\0';
                *file = filename;
                *line_nr = strtoul(sep, NULL, 0);
                ret = 1;
        }

out:
        pclose(fp);
        return ret;

If sep is NULL, filename is not freed or returned via file.

Andi Kleen 37932c188e perf stat: Output JSON MetricExpr metric
Add generic infrastructure to perf stat to output ratios for
"MetricExpr" entries in the event lists. Many events are more useful as
ratios than in raw form, typically some count in relation to total
ticks.

Transfer the MetricExpr information from the alias to the evsel.

We mark the events that need to be collected for MetricExpr, and also
link the events using them with a pointer. The code is careful to always
prefer the right event in the same group to minimize multiplexing
errors. At the moment only a single relation is supported.

Then add a rblist to the stat shadow code that remembers stats based on
the cpu and context.

Then finally update and retrieve and print these values similarly to the
existing hardcoded perf metrics. We use the simple expression parser
added earlier to evaluate the expression.

Normally we just output the result without further commentary, but for
--metric-only this would lead to empty columns. So for this case use the
original event as description.

There is no attempt to automatically add the MetricExpr event, if it is
missing, however we suggest it to the user, because the user tool
doesn't have enough information to reliably construct a group that is
guaranteed to schedule. So we leave that to the user.

Andi Kleen 075167363f perf tools: Add a simple expression parser for JSON
Add a simple expression parser good enough to parse JSON relation
expressions. The parser is implemented using bison.

This is just intended as an simple parser for internal usage in the
event lists, not the beginning of a "perf scripting language"

v2: Use expr__ prefix instead of expr_
    Support multiple free variables for parser

Committer note:

The v2 patch had:

  %define api.pure full

In expr.y, that is a feature introduced in bison 2.7, to have reentrant
parsers, not using global variables, which would make tools/perf stop
building with the bison version shipped in older distros, so Andi
realised that the other parsers (e.g. parse-events.y) were using:

  %pure-parser

Which is present in older versions of bison and fits the bill.

I added:

  CFLAGS_expr-bison.o += -DYYENABLE_NLS=0 -DYYLTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL=0 -w

To finally make it build, copying what was there for pmu-bison.o,
another parser.

Andi Kleen 8255718f4b perf pmu: Expand PMU events by prefix match
When the user specifies a pmu directly, expand it automatically with a
prefix match for all available PMUs, similar as we do for the normal
aliases now.

This allows to specify attributes for duplicated boxes quickly.  For
example uncore_cbox_{0,6}/.../ can be now specified as uncore_cbox/.../
and it gets automatically expanded for all boxes.

This generally makes it more concise to write uncore specifications, and
also avoids the need to know the exact topology of the system.

Before:

  % perf stat -a -e uncore_cbox_0/event=0x35,umask=0x1,filter_opc=0x19C/,\
  uncore_cbox_1/event=0x35,umask=0x1,filter_opc=0x19C/,\

Andi Kleen 430daf2dc7 perf stat: Collapse identically named events
The uncore PMU has a lot of duplicated PMUs for different subsystems.
When expanding an uncore alias we usually end up with a large
number of identically named aliases, which makes perf stat
output difficult to read.

Automatically sum them up in perf stat, unless --no-merge is specified.

This can be default because only the uncores generally have duplicated
aliases. Other PMUs have unique names.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo ed7b339fb5 perf annotate: Add comment clarifying how the source code line is parsed
The source code line number (lineno) needs to be kept in accross calls
to symbol__parse_objdump_line() when parsing the output of 'objdump -l
-dS', so that it can associate it with the instructions till the next
line.

See disasm_line__new() and struct disasm_line::line_nr.

Taeung Song e7cb9de211 perf annotate: More exactly grep -v of the objdump command
The 'grep -v "filename"' applied to the objdump command output cause a
side effect eliminating filename:linenr of output of 'objdump -l' if the
object file name and source file name are the same, fix it.

E.g. the output of the following objdump command in symbol__disassemble():

    $ objdump -l -d -S -C /home/taeung/hello --start-address=...

    /home/taeung/hello:     file format elf64-x86-64

    Disassembly of section .text:

    0000000000400526 <main>:
    main():
    /home/taeung/hello.c:4

    void main()
    {
      400526:	55                   	push   %rbp
      400527:	48 89 e5             	mov    %rsp,%rbp
    /home/taeung/hello.c:5
    ...

But it uses grep -v "filename" e.g. "/home/taeung/hello" in the objdump
command to remove the first line containing file name and file format
("/home/taeung/hello:     file format elf64-x86-64"):

Before:

    $ objdump -l -d -S -C /home/taeung/hello | grep /home/taeung/hello

But this causes a side effect, removing filename:linenr too, because the
object file and source file have the same name e.g. "/home/taueng/hello",
"/home/taeung/hello.c"

So more do a better match by using grep -v as below to correctly remove
that first line:

    "/home/taeung/hello:     file format elf64-x86-64"

After:

    $ objdump -l -d -S -C /home/taeung/hello | grep /home/taeung/hello:

Alexis Berlemont 3b1f8311f6 perf probe: Add sdt probes arguments into the uprobe cmd string
An sdt probe can be associated with arguments but they were not passed
to the user probe tracing interface (uprobe_events); this patch adapts
the sdt argument descriptors according to the uprobe input format.

As the uprobe parser does not support scaled address mode, perf will
skip arguments which cannot be adapted to the uprobe format.

Here are the results:

  $ perf probe -x test_sdt sdt_libfoo:table_frob
  $ perf probe -x test_sdt sdt_libfoo:table_diddle

On old perf, when using 'perf probe -d' to delete an inexistent event,
it returns errno, eg,

  -bash-4.3# perf probe -d xxx  || echo $?
  Info: Event "*:xxx" does not exist.
    Error: Failed to delete events.
  255

But now perf_del_probe_events() will always set ret = 0, different from
previous del_perf_probe_events(). After this, it returns errno again,
eg,

  -bash-4.3# ./perf probe -d xxx  || echo $?
  "xxx" does not hit any event.
    Error: Failed to delete events.
  254

And it is more appropriate to return -ENOENT instead of -EPERM.

from file

    arg5=%gpr7:u64 arg6=%gpr6:s32 arg7=%gpr5:u64 arg8=%gpr4:s32\
    arg9=+37(%gpr28):u8

'perf probe' fails with segfault for such markers. As the uprobe_events
file accepts definitions up to 4094 characters(4096 - 2 (\n\0)),
increase value of MAX_CMDLEN match that.

Alexander Shishkin 05a1f47ed4 perf tools: Handle partial AUX records and print a warning
This patch decodes the 'partial' flag in AUX records and prints
a warning to the user, so that they don't have to guess why their
PT traces contain gaps (or missing altogether):

  Warning:
  AUX data had gaps in it 8 times out of 8!

  Are you running a KVM guest in the background?

Trying to be even more helpful, we will detect if the user's kvm driver sets up
exclusive VMX root mode for the entire lifespan of the kvm process:

  Reloading kvm_intel module with vmm_exclusive=0
  will reduce the gaps to only guest's timeslices.

Note however, that you'll still have gaps in cpu-wide traces even with
vmm_exclusive=0, but the number of gaps will be below 100% (as opposed to the
above example).

Currently this is the only reason for partial records.

Andi Kleen 48d02a1d5c perf script: Add 'brstackinsn' for branch stacks
Implement printing instruction sequences as hex dump for branch stacks.

This relies on the x86 instruction decoder used by the PT decoder to
find the lengths of instructions to dump them individually.

This is good enough for pattern matching.

This allows to study hot paths for individual samples, together with
branch misprediction and cycle count / IPC information if available (on
Skylake systems).

  % perf record -b ...
  % perf script -F brstackinsn
  ...
    read_hpet+67:
          ffffffff9905b843        insn: 74 ea                     # PRED

          ffffffff9905b843        insn: 74 ea                     # PRED

Only works when no special branch filters are specified.

Occasionally the path does not reach up to the sample IP, as the LBRs
may be frozen before executing a final jump. In this case we print a
special message.

The instruction dumper piggy backs on the existing infrastructure from
the IP PT decoder.

An earlier iteration of this patch relied on a disassembler, but this
version only uses the existing instruction decoder.

Committer note:

Added hint about how to get suitable perf.data files for use with
'-F brstackinsm':

Stephane Eranian 88b897a30c perf tools: Make perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events() scale
This patch significantly improves the execution time of
perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events() when running perf record on systems
where processes have lots of threads.

It just happens that cat /proc/pid/maps support uses a O(N^2) algorithm to
generate each map line in the maps file.  If you have 1000 threads, then you
have necessarily 1000 stacks.  For each vma, you need to check if it
corresponds to a thread's stack.  With a large number of threads, this can take
a very long time. I have seen latencies >> 10mn.

As of today, perf does not use the fact that a mapping is a stack, therefore we
can work around the issue by using /proc/pid/tasks/pid/maps.  This entry does
not try to map a vma to stack and is thus much faster with no loss of
functonality.

The proc-map-timeout logic is kept in case users still want some upper limit.

In V2, we fix the file path from /proc/pid/tasks/pid/maps to actual
/proc/pid/task/pid/maps, tasks -> task.  Thanks Arnaldo for catching this.

Committer note:

This problem seems to have been elliminated in the kernel since commit :
b18cb64ead ("fs/proc: Stop trying to report thread stacks").

Naveen N. Rao 44ca9341f6 perf powerpc: Choose local entry point with kretprobes
perf now uses an offset from _text/_stext for kretprobes if the kernel
supports it, rather than the actual function name. As such, let's choose
the LEP for powerpc ABIv2 so as to ensure the probe gets hit. Do it only
if the kernel supports specifying offsets with kretprobes.

We indicate support for accepting sym+offset with kretprobes through a

As an example, without this perf patch, but with the ftrace changes:

  Added new events:

    probe:do_open_1      (on do_open%return)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe:do_open_1 -aR sleep 1

Hari Bathini d890a98c92 perf tools: Add 'cgroup_id' sort order keyword
This patch introduces a cgroup identifier entry field in perf report to
identify or distinguish data of different cgroups. It uses the device
number and inode number of cgroup namespace, included in perf data with
the new PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES event, as cgroup identifier.

With the assumption that each container is created with it's own cgroup
namespace,  this allows assessment/analysis of multiple containers at
once.

A simple test for this would be to clone a few processes passing
SIGCHILD & CLONE_NEWCROUP flags to each of them, execute shell and run
different workloads  on each of those contexts,  while running perf
record command with --namespaces option.

Shown below is the output of perf report, sorted with cgroup identifier,
on perf.data generated with the above test scenario, clearly indicating
one context's considerable use of kernel memory in comparison with
others:

	$ perf report -s cgroup_id,sample --stdio
	#
	# Total Lost Samples: 0
	#
	# Samples: 5K of event 'kmem:kmalloc'
	# Event count (approx.): 5965
	#
	# Overhead  cgroup id (dev/inode)       Samples
	# ........  .....................  ............
	#
	    81.27%  3/0xeffffffb                   4848
	    16.24%  3/0xf00000d0                    969
	     1.16%  3/0xf00000ce                     69
	     0.82%  3/0xf00000cf                     49
	     0.50%  0/0x0                            30

While this is a start, there is further scope of improving this. For
example, instead of cgroup namespace's device and inode numbers, dev
and inode numbers of some or all namespaces may be used to distinguish
which processes are running in a given container context.

Also, scripts to map device and inode info to containers sounds
plausible for better tracing of containers.

Hari Bathini f3b3614a28 perf tools: Add PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES to include namespaces related info
Introduce a new option to record PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES events emitted
by the kernel when fork, clone, setns or unshare are invoked. And update
perf-record documentation with the new option to record namespace
events.

Committer notes:

Combined it with a later patch to allow printing it via 'perf report -D'
and be able to test the feature introduced in this patch. Had to move
here also perf_ns__name(), that was introduced in another later patch.

Also used PRIu64 and PRIx64 to fix the build in some enfironments wrt:

  util/event.c:1129:39: error: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 6 has type 'long long unsigned int' [-Werror=format=]
     ret  += fprintf(fp, "%u/%s: %lu/0x%lx%s", idx
                                         ^
Testing it:

  # perf record --namespaces -a
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.083 MB perf.data (423 samples) ]
  #
  # perf report -D

Changbin Du d35fa1e75f perf report: Document +field style argument support for --field option
Commit 2f3f9bcf00 ("perf tools: Add +field argument support for
--field option") by Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> introduced +field style
argument support for --field option.

This is useful but not updated documentation.  This add a little
description there.
