11 years agoperf report: Postpone objdump check until annotation requested
Namhyung Kim [Fri, 2 Nov 2012 05:50:06 +0000 (14:50 +0900)]
perf report: Postpone objdump check until annotation requested

David reported that current perf report refused to run on a data file
captured from a different machine because of objdump.

Since the objdump tools won't be used unless annotation was requested,
checking its presence at init time doesn't make sense.

11 years agoperf tools: Introduce struct hist_browser_timer
Namhyung Kim [Fri, 2 Nov 2012 05:50:05 +0000 (14:50 +0900)]
perf tools: Introduce struct hist_browser_timer

Currently various hist browser functions receive 3 arguments for
refreshing histogram but only used from a few places.  Also it's only
for perf top command so that it can be NULL for other (and probably
most) cases.  Pack them into a struct in order to reduce number of those
unused arguments.

This is a mechanical change and does not intend a functional change.

11 years agoperf tools: Use normalized arch name for searching objdump path
Namhyung Kim [Fri, 2 Nov 2012 05:50:04 +0000 (14:50 +0900)]
perf tools: Use normalized arch name for searching objdump path

David reported that perf report for i686 target data on x86_64 host
failed to work because it tried to find out cross-compiled objdump.

However objdump for x86_64 is compatible to i686 so that it doesn't need
to do it at all.  To prevent similar artifacts, normalize arch name when
comparing host and file architectures.

perf tools: Further speed up the perf build

There's another source of overhead in the perf version string generator:

   git update-index -q --refresh

... which will iterate the whole checked out tree. This can be pretty
slow on NFS volumes, but takes some time even with local SSD disks and a
fully cached kernel tree:

 $ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty

       0.306999221 seconds time elapsed                                          ( +-  0.56% )

So remove the .dirty differentiator as well - it adds little information
because locally patched git trees are common, but seldom are the perf
tools modified.

So a lot of version strings are reported as 'dirty' while in fact they
are pristine perf builds. For example 99% of my perf builds are not
patched but the kernel tree is slightly patched, which adds the .dirty
tag.

Eliminating that tag speeds up version generation by another order of
magnitude:

 $ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --sync --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN

Ingo Molnar [Tue, 30 Oct 2012 08:46:00 +0000 (09:46 +0100)]
perf tools: Speed up the perf build time by simplifying the perf --version string generation

Building perf is pretty slow on trees that have a lot of commits
relative to the nearest Git tag. This slowness manifests itself during
version string generation:

 $ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --sync --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.1458.g5399b3b
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.1458.g5399b3b
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.1458.g5399b3b

 Performance counter stats for 'util/PERF-VERSION-GEN' (3 runs):

       2.857503976 seconds time elapsed                                          ( +-  0.22% )

The build can be even slower than that, when one over NFS volumes.

The reason for the slowness is that util/PERF-VERSION-GEN uses "git
describe" to generate the string, which has to count the "number of
commits distance" from the nearest tag - the ".1458." count in the
output above. For that Git had to extract and decompress 1458 Git
objects, which takes time and bandwidth.

But this "number of commits" value is mostly irrelevant in practice. We
either want to know an approximate tag name, or we want to know the
precise sha1.

So this patch simplifies the version string to:

 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty

which speeds up the version string generation script by an order of
magnitude:

 $ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --sync --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty

 Performance counter stats for 'util/PERF-VERSION-GEN' (3 runs):

       0.307633559 seconds time elapsed                                          ( +-  0.84% )

11 years agoperf tools: Add a global variable "const char *input_name"
Feng Tang [Tue, 30 Oct 2012 03:56:02 +0000 (11:56 +0800)]
perf tools: Add a global variable "const char *input_name"

Currently many perf commands annotate/evlist/report/script/lock etc all
support "-i" option to chose a specific perf data, and all of them
create a local "input_name" to save the file name for that perf data.

Since most of these commands need it, we can add a global variable for
it, also it can some other benefits:

1. When calling script browser inside hists/annotation browser, it needs
to know the perf data file name to run that script.

2. For further feature like runtime switching to another perf data file,
this variable can also help.

You may want to know where and how long a task is sleeping. A callchain
may be found in sched_switch and a time slice in stat_iowait, so I add
handler in perf inject for merging this events.

My code saves sched_switch event for each process and when it meets
stat_iowait, it reports the sched_switch event, because this event
contains a correct callchain. By another words it replaces all
stat_iowait events on proper sched_switch events.

We'll also need the number of events per thread, so introduce a

Andre Przywara [Tue, 9 Oct 2012 15:38:35 +0000 (17:38 +0200)]
x86/perf: Fix virtualization sanity check

In check_hw_exists() we try to detect non-emulated MSR accesses
by writing an arbitrary value into one of the PMU registers
and check if it's value after a readout is still the same.
This algorithm silently assumes that the register does not contain
the magic value already, which is wrong in at least one situation.

Fix the algorithm to really do a read-modify-write cycle. This fixes
a warning under Xen under some circumstances on AMD family 10h CPUs.

The reasons in more details actually sound like a story from
Believe It or Not!:

First you need an AMD family 10h/12h CPU. These do not reset the
PERF_CTR registers on a reboot.
Now you boot bare metal Linux, which goes successfully through this
check, but leaves the magic value of 0xabcd in the register. You
don't use the performance counters, but do a reboot (warm reset).
Then you choose to boot Xen. The check will be triggered with a
recent Linux kernel as Dom0 again, trying to write 0xabcd into the
MSR. Xen silently drops the write (expected), but the subsequent read
will return the value in the register, which just happens to be the
expected magic value. Thus the test misleadingly succeeds, leaving
the kernel in the belief that the PMU is available. This will trigger
the following message:

Merge tag 'perf-urgent-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

 * Validate syscall id before growing syscall table in 'trace', fixing potential
   excessive memory usage.

 * Validate perf_sample.raw_data, making 'trace' more robust, avoiding some
   potential SEGFAULTs when reading tracepoint fields.

 * Fix exclude_guest parse events 'perf test's, from Jiri Olsa.

 * Do not flush maps on COMM, that is sent by the kernel when a process is
   exec'ed, but also when a process changes its name. Since we were assuming
   a COMM always meant an EXEC, we were losing track of a process maps by
   flushing its maps. Fix from Luigi Semenzato.

 * A recent patch introduced a problem by not initializing what should be
   the first kind of pager to use, 'man', instead it was being left as zero
   which means no pager. This caused 'perf subcmd --help' to produce no output.
   Fix from Namhyung Kim.
