2018-09-18perf Documentation: Fix out-of-tree asciidoctor man page generationBen Hutchings1-1/+1
The dependency for the man page rule using asciidoctor incorrectly specifies a source file in $(OUTPUT). When building out-of-tree, the source file is not found, resulting in a fall-back to the following rule which uses xmlto.

2018-04-26perf Documentation: Support for asciidoctorTakashi Iwai2-5/+53
The asciidoc package seems behind the recent big wave of python3 conversion, and we were advised to switch to asciidoctor instead. It's almost compatible but some extensions used for perf documentation don't work with it. Here is the patch to cover them, and add the proper support for asciidoctor. Pass USE_ASCIIDOCTOR=yes to make for using asciidoctor instead of asciidoc. The man source and manual attributes are passed via command options. The support for these attributes have been fixed in the latest asciidoctor code. Since asciidoctor can covert to a man page and an HTML directly, we can omit the dependency on xmlto when USE_ASCIIDOCTOR is set.

2018-04-12perf stat: Enable 1ms interval for printing event counters valuesAlexey Budankov1-1/+1
Currently print count interval for performance counters values is limited by 10ms so reading the values at frequencies higher than 100Hz is restricted by the tool. This change makes perf stat -I possible on frequencies up to 1KHz and, to some extent, makes perf stat -I to be on-par with perf record sampling profiling. When running perf stat -I for monitoring e.g. PCIe uncore counters and at the same time profiling some I/O workload by perf record e.g. for cpu-cycles and context switches, it is then possible to observe consolidated CPU/OS/IO(Uncore) performance picture for that workload. Tool overhead warning printed when specifying -v option can be missed due to screen scrolling in case you have output to the console so message is moved into help available by running perf stat -h.

2018-03-08perf pmu: Support wildcards on pmu name in dynamic pmu eventsAgustin Vega-Frias2-1/+20
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.

2018-02-16perf stat: Add support to print counts after a period of timeyuzhoujian1-0/+5
Introduce a new option to print counts after N milliseconds and update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly. Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat. $ perf stat --time 2000 -e cycles -a Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 157,260,423 cycles 2.003060766 seconds time elapsed We can print the count deltas after N milliseconds with this new introduced option. This option is not supported with "-I" option. In addition, according to Kangliang's patch(19afd10410957), the monitoring overhead for system-wide core event could be very high if the interval-print parameter was below 100ms, and the limitation value is 10ms. So the same warning will be displayed when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms, and the minimal time is limited to 10ms. Users can make a decision according to their spcific cases. Committer notes: This actually stops the workload after the specified time, then prints the counts. So I renamed the option to --timeout and updated the documentation to state that it will not just print the counts after the specified time, but will really stop the 'perf stat' session and print the counts. The rename from 'time' to 'timeout' also fixes the build in systems where 'time' is used by glibc and can't be used as a name of a variable, such as centos:5 and centos:6. Changes since v3: - none. Changes since v2: - modify the time check in __run_perf_stat func to keep some consistency with the workload case. - add the warning when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms. - add the pr_err when the time is set below 10ms. Changes since v1: - none.

2018-02-16perf stat: Add support to print counts for fixed timesyuzhoujian1-0/+5
Introduce a new option to print counts for fixed number of times and update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly. Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat. $ perf stat -I 1000 --interval-count 2 -e cycles -a # time counts unit events 1.002827089 93,884,870 cycles 2.004231506 56,573,446 cycles We can just print the counts for several times with this newly introduced option. The usage of it is a little like 'vmstat', and it should be used together with "-I" option. $ vmstat -n 1 2 procs ---------memory-------------- --swap- ----io-- -system-- ------cpu--- r b swpd free buff cache si so bi bo in cs us sy id wa st 0 0 0 78270544 547484 51732076 0 0 0 20 1 1 1 0 99 0 0 0 0 0 78270512 547484 51732080 0 0 0 16 477 1555 0 0 100 0 0 Changes since v3: - merge interval_count check and times check to one line. - fix the wrong indent in stat.h - use stat_config.times instead of 'times' in cmd_stat function. Changes since v2: - none. Changes since v1: - change the name of the new option "times-print" to "interval-count". - keep the new option interval specifically.

2018-02-16perf report: Add support to display group output for non group eventsJiri Olsa1-1/+2
Add support to display group output for if non grouped events are detected and user forces --group option. Now for non-group events recorded like: $ perf record -e 'cycles,instructions' ls you can still get group output by using --group option in report: $ perf report --group --stdio ... # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ................ ....... ................ ...................... # 17.67% 0.00% ls libc-2.25.so [.] _IO_do_write@@GLIB 15.59% 25.94% ls ls [.] calculate_columns 15.41% 31.35% ls libc-2.25.so [.] __strcoll_l ... Committer note: We should improve on this by making sure that the first line states that this is not a group, but since the user doesn't have to force group view when really using grouped events (e.g. '{cycles,instructions}'), the user better know what is being done...
