2019-09-25perf parser: Remove needless include directivesArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
They go on accumulating there like the debug.h one, that was introduced here: f23610245c1a ("perf list: Add debug support for outputing alias string") But then, when that need is removed via: 2073ad3326b7 ("perf tools: Factor out PMU matching in parser") The thing stays there, so continue the house cleaning spree... list.h not needed, no macros from there are used, and 'struct list_head' is in linux/types.h, ditto for util.h, no need for that as well.

2019-09-25perf evlist: Remove unused perf_evlist__fprintf() methodArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Ditch it, noone is using it, one more stdio.h include in a hot header. Fix the fallout in parse-events.y, where we end up using a FILE pointer, I think due to YYDEBUG being set and in some places, like Amazon Linux 1 we don't get stdio.h included by luck, like in most other places, add a explicit stdio.h include directive.

2019-04-01perf stat: Implement duration_time as a proper eventAndi Kleen
The perf metric expression use 'duration_time' internally to normalize events. Normal 'perf stat' without -x also prints the duration time. But when using -x, the interval is not output anywhere, which is inconvenient for any post processing which often wants to normalize values to time. So implement 'duration_time' as a proper perf event that can be specified explicitely with -e. The previous implementation of 'duration_time' only worked for metric processing. This adds the concept of a tool event that is handled by the tool. On the kernel level it is still mapped to the dummy software event, but the values are not read anymore, but instead computed by the tool. Add proper plumbing to handle this in the event parser, and display it in 'perf stat'. We don't want 'duration_time' to be added up, so it's only printed for the first CPU. % perf stat -e duration_time,cycles true Performance counter stats for 'true': 555,476 ns duration_time 771,958 cycles 0.000555476 seconds time elapsed 0.000644000 seconds user 0.000000000 seconds sys Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190326221823.11518-3-andi@firstfloor.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2018-05-16perf parse-events: Handle uncore event aliases in small groups properlyKan Liang
Perf stat doesn't count the uncore event aliases from the same uncore block in a group, for example: perf stat -e '{unc_m_cas_count.all,unc_m_clockticks}' -a -I 1000 # time counts unit events 1.000447342 <not counted> unc_m_cas_count.all 1.000447342 <not counted> unc_m_clockticks 2.000740654 <not counted> unc_m_cas_count.all 2.000740654 <not counted> unc_m_clockticks The output is very misleading. It gives a wrong impression that the uncore event doesn't work. An uncore block could be composed by several PMUs. An uncore event alias is a joint name which means the same event runs on all PMUs of a block. Perf doesn't support mixed events from different PMUs in the same group. It is wrong to put uncore event aliases in a big group. The right way is to split the big group into multiple small groups which only include the events from the same PMU. Only uncore event aliases from the same uncore block should be specially handled here. It doesn't make sense to mix the uncore events with other uncore events from different blocks or even core events in a group.

2018-03-08perf pmu: Support wildcards on pmu name in dynamic pmu eventsAgustin Vega-Frias
Starting on v4.12 event parsing code for dynamic pmu events already supports prefix-based matching of multiple pmus when creating dynamic events. E.g., in a system with the following dynamic pmus: mypmu_0 mypmu_1 mypmu_2 mypmu_4 passing mypmu/<config>/ as an event spec will result in the creation of the event in all of the pmus. This change expands this matching through the use of fnmatch so glob-like expressions can be used to create events in multiple pmus. E.g., in the system described above if a user only wants to create the event in mypmu_0 and mypmu_1, mypmu_[01]/<config>/ can be passed.

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.

2016-09-13perf tools: Add infrastructure for PMU specific configurationMathieu Poirier
This patch adds PMU driver specific configuration to the parser infrastructure by preceding any term with the '@' letter. As such doing something like: perf record -e some_event/@cfg1,@cfg2=config/ ... will see 'cfg1' and 'cfg2=config' being added to the list of evsel config terms. Token 'cfg1' and 'cfg2=config' are not processed in user space and are meant to be interpreted by the PMU driver. First the lexer/parser are supplemented with the required definitions to recognise the driver specific configuration. From there they are simply added to the list of event terms. The bulk of the work is done in function "parse_events_add_pmu()" where driver config event terms are added to a new list of driver config terms, which in turn spliced with the event's new driver configuration list.

This patch provides infrastructure for passing source files to --event directly using: # perf record --event bpf-file.c command This patch does following works: 1) Allow passing '.c' file to '--event'. parse_events_load_bpf() is expanded to allow caller tell it whether the passed file is source file or object. 2) llvm__compile_bpf() is called to compile the '.c' file, the result is saved into memory. Use bpf_object__open_buffer() to load the in-memory object. Introduces a bpf-script-example.c so we can manually test it: # perf record --clang-opt "-DLINUX_VERSION_CODE=0x40200" --event ./bpf-script-example.c sleep 1 Note that '--clang-opt' must put before '--event'.

2015-10-28perf tools: Enable passing bpf object file to --eventWang Nan
By introducing new rules in tools/perf/util/parse-events.[ly], this patch enables 'perf record --event bpf_file.o' to select events by an eBPF object file. It calls parse_events_load_bpf() to load that file, which uses bpf__prepare_load() and finally calls bpf_object__open() for the object files. After applying this patch, commands like: # perf record --event foo.o sleep become possible. However, at this point it is unable to link any useful things onto the evsel list because the creating of probe points and BPF program attaching have not been implemented. Before real events are possible to be extracted, to avoid perf report error because of empty evsel list, this patch link a dummy evsel. The dummy event related code will be removed when probing and extracting code is ready. Commiter notes: Using it: $ ls -la foo.o ls: cannot access foo.o: No such file or directory $ perf record --event foo.o sleep libbpf: failed to open foo.o: No such file or directory event syntax error: 'foo.o' \___ BPF object file 'foo.o' is invalid (add -v to see detail) Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>] or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>] -e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events $ $ file /tmp/build/perf/perf.o /tmp/build/perf/perf.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped $ perf record --event /tmp/build/perf/perf.o sleep libbpf: /tmp/build/perf/perf.o is not an eBPF object file event syntax error: '/tmp/build/perf/perf.o' \___ BPF object file '/tmp/build/perf/perf.o' is invalid (add -v to see detail) Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>] or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>] -e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events $ $ file /tmp/foo.o /tmp/foo.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, no machine, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped $ perf record --event /tmp/foo.o sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.013 MB perf.data ] $ perf evlist /tmp/foo.o $ perf evlist -v /tmp/foo.o: type: 1, size: 112, config: 0x9, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1 $ So, type 1 is PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE, config 0x9 is PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY, ok. $ perf report --stdio Error: The perf.data file has no samples! # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # $ Signed-off-by: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Cc: Brendan Gregg <brendan.d.gregg@gmail.com> Cc: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: He Kuang <hekuang@huawei.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Kaixu Xia <xiakaixu@huawei.com> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Zefan Li <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: pi3orama@163.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1444826502-49291-4-git-send-email-wangnan0@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Here is an example for using different call-graph config for each tracepoint. $ perf record -e syscalls:sys_enter_write/call-graph=fp/ -e syscalls:sys_exit_write/call-graph=no/ dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=4k count=10 $ perf report --stdio # # Total Lost Samples: 0 # # Samples: 13 of event 'syscalls:sys_enter_write' # Event count (approx.): 13 # # Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ........ ....... .................. ...................... # 76.92% 76.92% dd libpthread-2.20.so [.] __write_nocancel | ---__write_nocancel 23.08% 23.08% dd libc-2.20.so [.] write | ---write | |--33.33%-- 0x2031342820736574 | |--33.33%-- 0xa6e69207364726f | --33.33%-- 0x34202c7320393039 ... # Samples: 13 of event 'syscalls:sys_exit_write' # Event count (approx.): 13 # # Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ........ ....... .................. ...................... # 76.92% 76.92% dd libpthread-2.20.so [.] __write_nocancel 23.08% 23.08% dd libc-2.20.so [.] write 7.69% 0.00% dd [unknown] [.] 0x0a6e69207364726f 7.69% 0.00% dd [unknown] [.] 0x2031342820736574 7.69% 0.00% dd [unknown] [.] 0x34202c7320393039 Signed-off-by: He Kuang <hekuang@huawei.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Cc: pi3orama@163.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1443412336-120050-4-git-send-email-hekuang@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2014-10-15perf tools: Add support to new style format of kernel PMU eventKan Liang
Add new rules for kernel PMU event. Currently, the patch only want to handle the PMU event name as "a-b" and "a". event_pmu: PE_KERNEL_PMU_EVENT sep_dc | PE_PMU_EVENT_PRE '-' PE_PMU_EVENT_SUF sep_dc PE_KERNEL_PMU_EVENT token is for cycles-ct/cycles-t/mem-loads/mem-stores. The prefix cycles is mixed up with cpu-cycles. loads and stores are mixed up with cache event So they have to be hardcode in lex. PE_PMU_EVENT_PRE and PE_PMU_EVENT_SUF tokens are for other PMU events. The lex looks generic identifier up in the table and return the matched token. If there is no match, generic PE_NAME token will be return. Using the rules, kernel PMU event could use new style format without // so you can use: perf record -e mem-loads ... instead of: perf record -e cpu/mem-loads/ Signed-off-by: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1412694532-23391-4-git-send-email-kan.liang@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2014-09-17perf tools: Let a user specify a PMU event without any config termsAdrian Hunter
This enables a PMU event to be specified in the form: pmu// which is effectively the same as: pmu/config=0/ This patch is a precursor to defining default config for a PMU. Further explanation extracted from lkml thread: Imagine that the 'tsc' term did not exist. Intel PT trace data would not contain TSC packets, and the decoder would not know how to decode them. Then imagine that a new version of the hardware adds 'tsc'. It is such a useful feature that we want it by default, but older versions of the tools don't know how to decode it, so the kernel cannot turn it on by default. It is similar to why the kernel does not select perf_event_attr.mmap2 by default. The kernel doesn't know whether the tool supports it.
