2020-03-11perf scripting perl: Add common_callchain to fix argument orderMichael Petlan
Since common_callchain has been added to the argument array, we need to reflect it in perl-based scripts, because otherwise the following args would be shifted and thus incorrect. E.g. rw-by-pid and calculation of read and written bytes: Before: read counts by pid: pid comm # reads bytes_requested bytes_read ------ -------------------- ----------- ---------- ---------- 19301 dd 4 424510450039736 0 After: read counts by pid: pid comm # reads bytes_requested bytes_read ------ -------------------- ----------- ---------- ---------- 19301 dd 4 9536 4341 Committer testing: To see before after first do: # perf script record rw-by-pid ^C Now you'll have a perf.data file to report on, then do before and after using: # perf script report rw-by-pid Anbd notice the bytes_request/bytes_read, as above.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

A couple of scripts, one in Python and the other in Perl, that demonstrate 'live mode' tracing. For each, the output of the perf event stream is fed continuously to the script, which continuously aggregates the data and reports the current results every 3 seconds, or at the optionally specified interval. After the current results are displayed, the aggregations are cleared and the cycle begins anew. To run the scripts, simply pipe the output of the 'perf trace record' step as input to the corresponding 'perf trace report' step, using '-' as the filename to -o and -i: $ perf trace record sctop -o - | perf trace report sctop -i - Also adds clear_term() utility functions to the Util.pm and Util.py utility modules, for use by any script to clear the screen.

2009-12-15perf trace/scripting: List available scriptsTom Zanussi
Lists the available perf trace scripts, one per line e.g.: root@tropicana:~# perf trace -l List of available trace scripts: workqueue-stats workqueue stats (ins/exe/create/destroy) wakeup-latency system-wide min/max/avg wakeup latency rw-by-file <comm> r/w activity for a program, by file check-perf-trace useless but exhaustive test script rw-by-pid system-wide r/w activity To be consistent with the other listing options in perf, the current latency trace option was changed to '-L', and '-l' is now used to access the script listing as: To create the list, it searches each scripts/*/bin directory for files ending with "-report" and reads information found in certain comment lines contained in those shell scripts: - if the comment line starts with "description:", the rest of the line is used as a 'half-line' description. To keep each line in the list to a single line, the description should be limited to 40 characters (the rest of the line contains the script name and args) - if the comment line starts with "args:", the rest of the line names the args the script supports. Required args should be surrounded by <> brackets, optional args by [] brackets. The current scripts in scripts/perl/bin have also been updated with description: and args: comments.

2009-12-15perf trace/scripting: Add support for script argsTom Zanussi
One oversight of the original scripting_ops patch was a lack of support for passing args to handler scripts. This adds argc/argv to the start_script() scripting_op, and changes the rw-by-file script to take 'comm' arg rather than the 'perf' value currently hard-coded. It also takes the opportunity to do some related minor cleanup.

2009-11-28perf trace: Add a scripts/perl/bin for perf trace shell scriptsTom Zanussi
To capture the relevant events for a given Perl script and to avoid having to continually remember and type in long command-lines, add a scripts/perl/bin directory containing two simple shell scripts for each Perl script, one for recording and one for processing/display. For example, to record perf data for the rw-by-pid.pl script, run scripts/perl/bin/rw-by-pid-record and to actually run the script and display the output run scripts/perl/bin/rw-by-pid-report.

2009-11-28perf trace: Add interface to access perf data from Perl handlersTom Zanussi
The Perl scripting support for perf trace allows most of a trace event's data to be accessed directly as handler arguments, but not all of it e.g. the less common fields aren't passed in. To give scripts access to the other fields and/or any other data or metadata in the main perf executable that might be useful, a way to access the C data in perf from Perl is needed; this patch uses the Perl XS facility to do it for the common_xxx event fields not passed to handler functions. Context.pm exports three functions to Perl scripts that access fields for the current event by calling back into perf: common_pc(), common_flags() and common_lock_depth(). Support for common_flags() field values was added to Core.pm and a script used to sanity check these and other basic scripting features, check-perf-trace.pl, was also added.

Add Perf-Trace-Util Perl module and some scripts that use it. Core.pm contains Perl code to define and access flag and symbolic fields. Util.pm contains general-purpose utility functions. Also adds some makefile bits to install them in libexec/perf-core/scripts/perl (or wherever perfexec_instdir points).
