perf tools: Support data block and addr block
Two new data source fields, to indicate the block reasons of a load instruction, are introduced on the Intel Sapphire Rapids server. The fields can be used by the memory profiling. Add a new sort function, SORT_MEM_BLOCKED, for the two fields. For the previous platforms or the block reason is unknown, print "N/A" for the block reason. Add blocked as a default mem sort key for perf report and perf mem report. Committer testing: So in machines without this capability we get a "N/A" filling the new "Blocked" column: $ perf mem record ls arch certs CREDITS Documentation include ipc Kconfig lib MAINTAINERS mm samples security usr block COPYING crypto drivers fs init Kbuild kernel LICENSES Makefile net README scripts sound tools virt [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.008 MB perf.data (17 samples) ] $ $ perf mem report --stdio # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # # Total Lost Samples: 0 # # Samples: 6 of event 'cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/Pu' # Total weight : 1381 # Sort order : local_weight,mem,sym,dso,symbol_daddr,dso_daddr,snoop,tlb,locked,blocked # # Overhead Samples Local Weight Memory access Symbol Shared Object Data Symbol Data Object Snoop TLB access Locked Blocked # ........ ....... ............ .................... ....................... ............. ...................... ............ ..... ............ ...... ....... # 32.87% 1 454 Local RAM or RAM hit [.] _dl_relocate_object ld-2.31.so [.] 0x00007fe91cef3078 libc-2.31.so Hit L1 or L2 hit No N/A 25.56% 1 353 LFB or LFB hit [.] strcmp ld-2.31.so [.] 0x00005586973855ca ls None L1 or L2 hit No N/A 22.59% 1 312 LFB or LFB hit [.] _dl_cache_libcmp ld-2.31.so [.] 0x00007fe91d0e3b18 ld.so.cache None L1 or L2 hit No N/A 8.47% 1 117 LFB or LFB hit [.] _dl_relocate_object ld-2.31.so [.] 0x00007fe91ceee570 libc-2.31.so None L1 or L2 hit No N/A 6.88% 1 95 LFB or LFB hit [.] _dl_relocate_object ld-2.31.so [.] 0x00007fe91ceed490 libc-2.31.so None L1 or L2 hit No N/A 3.62% 1 50 LFB or LFB hit [.] _dl_cache_libcmp ld-2.31.so [.] 0x00007fe91d0ebe60 ld.so.cache None L1 or L2 hit No N/A # Samples: 11 of event 'cpu/mem-stores/Pu' # Total weight : 11 # Sort order : local_weight,mem,sym,dso,symbol_daddr,dso_daddr,snoop,tlb,locked,blocked # # Overhead Samples Local Weight Memory access Symbol Shared Object Data Symbol Data Object Snoop TLB access Locked Blocked # ........ ....... ............ ............. ....................... ............. ...................... ........... ..... .......... ...... ....... # 9.09% 1 0 L1 hit [.] __strcoll_l libc-2.31.so [.] 0x00007fffe5648fc8 [stack] N/A N/A N/A N/A 9.09% 1 0 L1 hit [.] _dl_lookup_symbol_x ld-2.31.so [.] 0x00007fffe56490b8 [stack] N/A N/A N/A N/A 9.09% 1 0 L1 hit [.] _dl_name_match_p ld-2.31.so [.] 0x00007fffe56487d8 [stack] N/A N/A N/A N/A 9.09% 1 0 L1 hit [.] _dl_start ld-2.31.so [.] start_time+0x0 ld-2.31.so N/A N/A N/A N/A 9.09% 1 0 L1 hit [.] _dl_sysdep_start ld-2.31.so [.] 0x00007fffe56494b8 [stack] N/A N/A N/A N/A 9.09% 1 0 L1 hit [.] do_lookup_x ld-2.31.so [.] 0x00007fffe5648ff8 [stack] N/A N/A N/A N/A 9.09% 1 0 L1 hit [.] do_lookup_x ld-2.31.so [.] 0x00007fffe5649064 [stack] N/A N/A N/A N/A 9.09% 1 0 L1 hit [.] do_lookup_x ld-2.31.so [.] 0x00007fffe5649130 [stack] N/A N/A N/A N/A 9.09% 1 0 L1 miss [.] _dl_start ld-2.31.so [.] _rtld_global+0xaf8 ld-2.31.so N/A N/A N/A N/A 9.09% 1 0 L1 miss [.] _dl_start ld-2.31.so [.] _rtld_global+0xc28 ld-2.31.so N/A N/A N/A N/A 9.09% 1 0 L1 miss [.] _dl_start ld-2.31.so [.] 0x00007fffe56495b8 [stack] N/A N/A N/A N/A # (Tip: Show user configuration overrides: perf config --user --list) $ Signed-off-by: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jin Yao <yao.jin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Madhavan Srinivasan <maddy@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1612296553-21962-4-git-send-email-kan.liang@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
