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

Teach perf-record about the new perf_event_attr::{use_clockid, clockid}
fields. Add a simple parameter to set the clock (if any) to be used for
the events to be recorded into the data file.
Since we store the entire perf_event_attr in the EVENT_DESC section we
also already store the used clockid in the data file.

The 'record' and 'top' tools already allow a user to specify a CSV of
pids and/or tids of tasks to collect data.
Add those options to the 'report' and 'script' analysis commands to only
consider samples related to the given pids/tids.
This is also inline with the existing comm option.

The 'perf record --group' option lacks documentation and confuses users.
As -e/--event option already supports group spec, it should not be used
anymore.
Also add a short description of event group itself.

Add --purge FILE to remove all caches of FILE.
Since the current --remove FILE removes a cache which has
same build-id of given FILE. Since the command takes a
FILE path, it can confuse user who tries to remove cache
about FILE path.
-----
# ./perf buildid-cache -v --add ./perf
Adding 133b7b5486d987a5ab5c3ebf4ea14941f45d4d4f ./perf: Ok
# (update the ./perf binary)
# ./perf buildid-cache -v --remove ./perf
Removing 305bbd1be68f66eca7e2d78db294653031edfa79 ./perf: FAIL
./perf wasn't in the cache
-----
Actually, the --remove's FAIL is not shown, it just silently fails.
So, this patch adds --purge FILE action for such usecase.
perf buildid-cache --purge FILE removes all caches which has same FILE
path.
In other words, it removes all caches including old binaries.

BTW, if you want to purge all the caches, remove ~/.debug/* .

Extend 'perf list --raw-dump' to 'perf list --raw-dump [hw|sw|cache
|tracepoint|pmu|event_glob]' in order to show the raw-dump of a certain
kind of events rather than all of the events.
Example:
Before this patch:
$ perf list --raw-dump hw
branch-instructions branch-misses bus-cycles cache-misses
cache-references cpu-cycles instructions stalled-cycles-backend
stalled-cycles-frontend
alignment-faults context-switches cpu-clock cpu-migrations
emulation-faults major-faults minor-faults page-faults task-clock
...
...
writeback:writeback_thread_start writeback:writeback_thread_stop
writeback:writeback_wait_iff_congested
writeback:writeback_wake_background writeback:writeback_wake_thread
As shown above, all of the events are printed.
After this patch:
$ perf list --raw-dump hw
branch-instructions branch-misses bus-cycles cache-misses
cache-references cpu-cycles instructions stalled-cycles-backend
stalled-cycles-frontend
As shown above, only the hw events are printed.

Currently, the perf diff only works with same binaries. That's because
it compares the symbol start address. It doesn't work if the perf.data
comes from different binaries. This patch matches the symbol names.
Actually, perf diff once intended to compare the symbol names. The
commit as below can look for a pair by name.
604c5c92972d (perf diff: Change the default sort order to "dso,symbol")
However, at that time, perf diff used a global list of dsos. That means
the binaries which has same name can only be loaded once. That's a
problem for comparing different binaries.
For example, we have an old binary and an updated binary. They very
likely have same name and most of the functions, so only dsos from old
binary will be loaded. When processing the data from updated binary,
perf still use the symbol information from old binary. That's wrong.
Then the commit as below used IP to replace symbol name.
9c443dfdd31e ("perf diff: Fix support for all --sort combinations")
>From that time, perf diff starts to compare the symbol address.
The global dsos is discarded from a patch in 2010.
a1645ce12adb ("perf: 'perf kvm' tool for monitoring guest performance
from host")
However, at that time, perf diff already compared by address. So perf
diff cannot work for different binaries as well.
This patch actually rolls back the perf diff to original design. The
document is also changed, so everybody knows the original design is to
compare the symbol names.
Here are some examples:
The only difference between example_v1.c and example_v2.c is the
location of f2 and f3. There is no change in behavior, but the previous
perf diff display the wrong differential profile.
example_v1.c
noinline void f3(void)
{
volatile int i;
for (i = 0; i < 10000;) {
if(i%2)
i++;
else
i++;
}
}
noinline void f2(void)
{
volatile int a = 100, b, c;
for (b = 0; b < 10000; b++)
c = a * b;
}
noinline void f1(void)
{
f2();
f3();
}
int main()
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++)
f1();
}

noinline void f2(void)
{

for (b = 0; b < 10000; b++)
c = a * b;
}

{

for (i = 0; i < 10000;) {

i++;
else
i++;
}
}

Add new buildid cache if the update target file is not cached.
This can happen when an old binary is replaced by new one after caching
the old one. In this case, user sees his operation just failed.
But it does not look straight, since user just pass the binary "path",
not "build-id".
----
# ./perf buildid-cache --add ./perf
(update ./perf to new binary)
# ./perf buildid-cache --update ./perf
./perf wasn't in the cache
#
----
This patch adds given new binary to cache if the new binary is
not cached. So we'll not see the above error.

Adding 'perf data convert' to convert perf data file into different
format. This patch adds support for CTF format conversion.
To convert perf.data into CTF run:
$ perf data convert --to-ctf=./ctf-data/
[ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './ctf-data/' ]
[ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 11.268 MB (100230 samples) ]
The command will create CTF metadata out of perf.data file (or one
specified via -i option) and then convert all sample events into single
CTF stream.
Each sample_type bit is translated into separated CTF event field apart
from following exceptions:
PERF_SAMPLE_RAW - added in next patch
PERF_SAMPLE_READ - TODO
PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN - TODO
PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK - TODO
PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_USER - TODO
PERF_SAMPLE_STACK_USER - TODO
$ perf --debug=data-convert=2 data convert ...
The converted CTF data could be analyzed by CTF tools, like babletrace
or tracecompass [1].

The following members to the ctf-environment were decided to be added to
distinguish and specify perf CTF data:
- domain
It says "kernel" because it contains a kernel trace (not to be
confused with a user space like lttng-ust does)
- tracer_name
It says perf. This can be used to distinguish between lttng and perf
CTF based trace.
- version
The kernel version from stream. In addition to release, this is what
it looks like on a Debian kernel:
release = "3.14-1-amd64";
version = "3.14.0";

When tracing in X we get event loops due to the tracing activity, i.e.
updates to a gnome-terminal that generate syscalls for X.org, etc.
To get a more useful view of what is happening, syscall wise, system
wide, we need to filter those, like in:
# ps ax|egrep '981|2296|1519' | grep -v egrep
981 tty1 Ss+ 5:40 /usr/bin/Xorg :0 -background none ...
1519 ? Sl 2:22 /usr/bin/gnome-shell
2296 ? Sl 4:16 /usr/libexec/gnome-terminal-server
#
# trace -e write --filter-pids 981,2296,1519
0.385 ( 0.021 ms): goa-daemon/2061 write(fd: 1</dev/null>, buf: 0x7fbeb017b000, count: 136) = 136
0.922 ( 0.014 ms): goa-daemon/2061 write(fd: 1</dev/null>, buf: 0x7fbeb017b000, count: 140) = 140

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core
Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
User visible changes:
- No need to explicitely enable evsels for workload started from perf, let it
be enabled via perf_event_attr.enable_on_exec, removing some events that take
place in the 'perf trace' before a workload is really started by it.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Fix to handle optimized not-inlined functions in 'perf probe' (Masami Hiramatsu)
- Update 'perf probe' man page (Masami Hiramatsu)
- 'perf trace': Allow mixing with tracepoints and suppressing plain syscalls
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Infrastructure changes:
- Introduce {trace_seq_do,event_format_}_fprintf functions to allow
a default tracepoint field list printer to be used in tools that allows
redirecting output to a file. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- The man page for pthread_attr_set_affinity_np states that _GNU_SOURCE
must be defined before pthread.h, do it to fix the build in some
systems (Josh Boyer)
- Cleanups in 'perf buildid-cache' (Masami Hiramatsu)
- Fix dso cache test case (Namhyung Kim)
- Do Not rely on dso__data_read_offset() to open DSO (Namhyung Kim)
- Make perf aware of tracefs (Steven Rostedt).
- Fix build by defining STT_GNU_IFUNC for glibc 2.9 and older (Vinson Lee)
- AArch64 symbol resolution fixes (Victor Kamensky)
- Kconfig beachhead (Jiri Olsa)
- Simplify nr_pages validity (Kaixu Xia)

Currently, there are two call chain recording options, fp and dwarf.
Haswell has a new feature that utilizes the existing LBR facility to
record call chains. Kernel side LBR support code provides this as a
third option to record call chains. This patch enables the lbr call
stack support on the tooling side.
LBR call stack has some limitations:
- It reuses current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and branch record
can not be enabled at the same time.
- It is only available for user-space callchains.
However, it also offers some advantages:
- LBR call stack can work on user apps which don't have frame-pointers
or dwarf debug info compiled. It is a good alternative when nothing
else works.

This patch modifies perf mem to default to sampling loads and stores
simultaneously. It could only do one or the other before yet there was
no hardware restriction preventing simultaneous collection. With this
patch, one run is sufficient to collect both.
It is still possible to sample only loads or stores by using the
-t option:
$ perf mem -t load rec
$ perf mem -t load rep
Or
$ perf mem -t store rec
$ perf mem -t store rep
The perf report TUI will show one event at a time. The store output will
contain a Weight column which will be empty.
In V2, we updated the man pages to reflect the change and also simplify
the initialization of the argv vector passed to the cmd_*() functions as
per LKML feedback.
In V3, we fixed typos in the changelog.

Add a --branch-history option to perf report that changes all the
settings necessary for using the branches in callstacks.
This is just a short cut to make this nicer to use, it does not enable
any functionality by itself.
v2: Change sort order. Rename option to --branch-history to
be less confusing.
v3: Updates
v4: Fix conflict with newer perf base
v5: Port to latest tip
v6: Add more comments. Remove CCKEY_ADDRESS setting. Remove
unnecessary branch_mode setting. Use a boolean.

Currently branch stacks can be only shown as edge histograms for
individual branches. I never found this display particularly useful.
This implements an alternative mode that creates histograms over
complete branch traces, instead of individual branches, similar to how
normal callgraphs are handled. This is done by putting it in front of
the normal callgraph and then using the normal callgraph histogram
infrastructure to unify them.
This way in complex functions we can understand the control flow that
lead to a particular sample, and may even see some control flow in the
caller for short functions.
Example (simplified, of course for such simple code this is usually not
needed), please run this after the whole patchkit is in, as at this
point in the patch order there is no --branch-history, that will be
added in a patch after this one:
tcall.c:
volatile a = 10000, b = 100000, c;
__attribute__((noinline)) f2()
{
c = a / b;
}
__attribute__((noinline)) f1()
{
f2();
f2();
}
main()
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < 1000000; i++)
f1();
}
% perf record -b -g ./tsrc/tcall
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.044 MB perf.data (~1923 samples) ]
% perf report --no-children --branch-history
...

The default output is unchanged.
This is only implemented in perf report, no change to record or anywhere
else.
This adds the basic code to report:
- add a new "branch" option to the -g option parser to enable this mode
- when the flag is set include the LBR into the callstack in machine.c.
The rest of the history code is unchanged and doesn't know the
difference between LBR entry and normal call entry.
- detect overlaps with the callchain
- remove small loop duplicates in the LBR
Current limitations:
- The LBR flags (mispredict etc.) are not shown in the history
and LBR entries have no special marker.
- It would be nice if annotate marked the LBR entries somehow
(e.g. with arrows)
v2: Various fixes.
v3: Merge further patches into this one. Fix white space.
v4: Improve manpage. Address review feedback.
v5: Rename functions. Better error message without -g. Fix crash without
-b.
v6: Rebase
v7: Rebase. Use NO_ENTRY in memset.
v8: Port to latest tip. Move add_callchain_ip to separate
patch. Skip initial entries in callchain. Minor cleanups.

On s390, the vmexit event has a tree-like structure: between
exit_event_begin and exit_event_end several other events may happen and
with each of them refining the previous ones.
This patch adds a decoder for such events to the generic code and also
the files <asm/kvm_perf.h> and kvm-stat.c for s390.
Commands 'perf kvm stat record', 'report' and 'live' are supported.

Currently, timechart records only scheduler and CPU events (task switches,
running times, CPU power states, etc); this commit adds IO mode which
makes it possible to record IO (disk, network) activity. In this mode
perf timechart will generate SVG with IO charts (writes, reads, tx, rx, polls).

Currently, we may either trace syscalls or syscalls+pagefaults.
We'd like to be able to trace *only* pagefaults and this commit
implements this feature.
Example:
[root@zoo /]# echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches ; trace --no-syscalls -F -p `pidof xchat`
0.000 ( 0.000 ms): xchat/4574 majfault [g_unichar_get_script+0x11] => /usr/lib64/libglib-2.0.so.0.3800.2@0xc403b (x.)
0.202 ( 0.000 ms): xchat/4574 majfault [_cairo_hash_table_lookup+0x53] => 0x2280ff0 (?.)
20.854 ( 0.000 ms): xchat/4574 majfault [gdk_cairo_set_source_pixbuf+0x110] => /usr/bin/xchat@0x6da1f (x.)

resolve symbols, etc.

This patch adds optional pagefault tracing support to 'perf trace'.
Using -F/--pf option user can specify whether he wants minor, major or
all pagefault events to be traced. This patch adds only live mode,
record and replace will come in a separate patch.

There are a number of benchmarks that do single runs and as a result
does not really help users gain a general idea of how the workload
performs. So the user must either manually do multiple runs or just use
single bogus results.
This option will enable users to specify the amount of runs (arbitrarily
defaulted to 10, to use the existing benchmarks default) through the
'--repeat' option. Add it to perf-bench instead of implementing it
always in each specific benchmark.

In perf's 'mem-mode', one can get access to a whole bunch of details specific to a
particular sample instruction. A bunch of those details relate to the data
address.
One interesting thing you can do with data addresses is to convert them into a unique
cacheline they belong too. Organizing these data cachelines into similar groups and sorting
them can reveal cache contention.
This patch creates an alogorithm based on various sample details that can help group
entries together into data cachelines and allows 'perf report' to sort on it.
The algorithm relies on having proper mmap2 support in the kernel to help determine
if the memory map the data address belongs to is private to a pid or globally shared.
The alogortithm is as follows:
o group cpumodes together
o group entries with discovered maps together
o sort on major, minor, inode and inode generation numbers
o if userspace anon, then sort on pid
o sort on cachelines based on data addresses
The 'dcacheline' sort option in 'perf report' only works in 'mem-mode'.
Sample output:
#
# Samples: 206 of event 'cpu/mem-loads/pp'
# Total weight : 2534
# Sort order : dcacheline,pid
#
# Overhead Samples Data Cacheline Command: Pid
# ........ ............ ...................................................................... ..................
#
13.22% 1 [k] 0xffff88042f08ebc0 swapper: 0
9.27% 1 [k] 0xffff88082e8cea80 swapper: 0

0.32% 1 [k] timekeeper_seq+0xfffffffffffffff8 swapper: 0
Note: Added a '+1' to symlen size in hists__calc_col_len to prevent the next column
from prematurely tabbing over and mis-aligning. Not sure what the problem is.
