2009-08-18perf tools: Remove obsolete definesIngo Molnar1-4/+0
The _XOPEN_SOURCE* defines are not really needed on Linux and it's not like we'll port this to AIX ;-) The define also broke the build with gcc 4.4.1: CC util/trace-event-parse.o In file included from util/trace-event-parse.c:32: util/util.h:43:1: error: "_XOPEN_SOURCE" redefined So remove them.

2009-08-18perf tools: Make trace event format parser aware of cast to pointersFrederic Weisbecker1-4/+27
The ftrace event format parser handles the usual casts but not the cast to pointers. Such casts have been introduced recently with the module trace events and raise the following parsing error: Fatal: bad op token ) This is because it considers the "*" character as a binary operator. Make it then aware of casts to pointers.

2009-08-17perf tools: Add perf traceFrederic Weisbecker1-0/+1
This adds perf trace into the set of perf tools. It is written to fetch the tracepoint samples from perf events and display them, according to the events information given by the debugfs files through the util/trace* tools. It is a rough first shot and doesn't yet handle the cpu, timestamps fields and some other things. Example: perf record -f -e workqueue:workqueue_execution:record -F 1 -a perf trace kblockd/0-236 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:236 func=cfq_kick_queue+0x0 kondemand/0-360 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:360 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/0-360 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:360 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/1-361 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:361 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/1-361 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:361 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/1-361 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:361 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/1-361 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:361 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/1-361 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:361 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/1-361 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:361 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/1-361 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:361 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/1-361 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:361 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/1-361 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:361 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/1-361 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:361 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/1-361 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:361 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/1-361 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:361 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 kondemand/1-361 [000] 0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:361 func=do_dbs_timer+0x0 Todo: - A lot of things!

2009-08-16perf: Enable more compiler warningsIngo Molnar17-105/+136
Related to a shadowed variable bug fix Valdis Kletnieks noticed that perf does not get built with -Wshadow, which could have helped us avoid the bug. So enable -Wshadow and also enable the following warnings on perf builds, in addition to the already enabled -Wall -Wextra -std=gnu99 warnings: -Wcast-align -Wformat=2 -Wshadow -Winit-self -Wpacked -Wredundant-decls -Wstack-protector -Wstrict-aliasing=3 -Wswitch-default -Wswitch-enum -Wno-system-headers -Wundef -Wvolatile-register-var -Wwrite-strings -Wbad-function-cast -Wmissing-declarations -Wmissing-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Wold-style-definition -Wstrict-prototypes -Wdeclaration-after-statement And change/fix the perf code to build cleanly under GCC 4.3.2. The list of warnings enablement is rather arbitrary: it's based on my (quick) reading of the GCC manpages and trying them on perf. I categorized the warnings based on individually enabling them and looking whether they trigger something in the perf build. If i liked those warnings (i.e. if they trigger for something that arguably could be improved) i enabled the warning. If the warnings seemed to come from language laywers spamming the build with tons of nuisance warnings i generally kept them off. Most of the sign conversion related warnings were in this category. (A second patch enabling some of the sign warnings might be welcome - sign bugs can be nasty.) I also kept warnings that seem to make sense from their manpage description and which produced no actual warnings on our code base. These warnings might still be turned off if they end up being a nuisance. I also left out a few warnings that are not supported in older compilers. [ Note that these changes might break the build on older compilers i did not test, or on non-x86 architectures that produce different warnings, so more testing would be welcome. ] Reported-by: Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-08-09perf tools: callchain: Fix bad rounding of minimum rateFrederic Weisbecker1-2/+3
Sometimes we get callchain branches that have a rate under the limit given by the user. Say you launched: perf record -f -g -a ./hackbench 10 perf report -g fractal,10.0 And you got: 2.33% hackbench [kernel] [k] _spin_lock_irqsave | |--78.57%-- remove_wait_queue | poll_freewait | do_sys_poll | sys_poll | sysenter_dispatch | 0xf7ffa430 | 0x1ffadea3c | |--7.14%-- __up_read | up_read | do_page_fault | page_fault | 0xf7ffa430 | 0xa0df710000000a ... It is abnormal to get a 7.14% branch whereas we passed a 10% filter. The problem is that we round down the minimum threshold. This happens mostly when we have very low number of events. If the total amount of your branch is 4 and you have a subranch of 3 events, filtering to 90% will be computed like follows: limit = 4 * 0.9; The result is about 3.6, but the cast to integer will round down to 3. It means that our filter is actually of 75% We must then explicitly round up the minimum threshold.

We get something like this now: # PID TID cache-misses cache-references 4658 4659 495581 3238779 4658 4662 498246 3236823 4658 4663 499531 3243162 Then it'll be easy to add --pretty=raw to display a single line per thread/event.

2009-08-09perf tools: callchain: Fix 'perf report' display to be callchain by defaultFrederic Weisbecker1-0/+1
If we recorded with -g option to record the callchain, right now we require a -g option to perf report as well - and people reported this as unnecessary complication: the user already specified -g once, no need to require it a second time. So if the recording includes call-chains, display the callchain by default from perf report.

2009-08-09perf tools: callchain: Fix spurious 'perf report' warnings: ignore empty callchainsFrederic Weisbecker1-0/+2
When the callchain tree comes to insert an empty backtrace, it raises a spurious warning about the fact we are inserting an empty. This is spurious because the radix tree assumes it did something wrong to reach this state. But it didn't, we just met an empty callchain that has to be ignored. This happens occasionally with certain types of call-chain recordings. If it happens it's a big nuisance as perf report output starts with thousands of warning lines.

2009-07-22perf: avoid structure size confusion by using a fixed sizeArjan van de Ven1-1/+1
for some reason, this structure gets compiled as 36 bytes in some files (the ones that alloacte it) but 40 bytes in others (the ones that use it). The cause is an off_t type that gets a different size in different compilation units for some yet-to-be-explained reason. But the effect is disasterous; the size/offset members of the struct are at different offsets, and result in mostly complete garbage. The parser in perf is so robust that this all gets hidden, and after skipping an certain amount of samples, it recovers.... so this bug is not normally noticed. .... except when you want every sample to be exact. Fix this by just using an explicitly sized type.

2009-07-05perf_counter tools: callchains: Manage the cumul hits on the flyFrederic Weisbecker1-4/+8
The cumul hits are the number of hits of every childs of a node plus the hits of the current nodes, required for percentage computing of a branch. Theses numbers are calculated during the sorting of the branches of the callchain tree using a depth first postfix traversal, so that cumulative hits are propagated in the right order. But if we plan to implement percentages relative to the parent and not absolute percentages (relative to the whole overhead), we need to know the cumulative hits of the parent before computing the children because the relative minimum acceptable number of entries (ie: minimum rate against the cumulative hits from the parent) is the basis to filter the children against a given rate. Then we need to handle the cumul hits on the fly to prepare the implementation of relative overhead rates.
