perf record: Add --all-cgroups option

2020-04-03T12:37:55Z

The --all-cgroups option is to enable cgroup profiling support. It tells kernel to record CGROUP events in the ring buffer so that perf report can identify task/cgroup association later.

perf evsel: Support PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX

2020-03-10T00:43:24Z

A new branch sample type PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX has been introduced in latest kernel. Enable HW_INDEX by default in LBR call stack mode. If kernel doesn't support the sample type, switching it off. Add HW_INDEX in attr_fprintf as well. User can check whether the branch sample type is set via debug information or header. Committer testing: First collect some samples with LBR callchains, system wide, for a few seconds: # perf record --call-graph lbr -a sleep 5 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.625 MB perf.data (224 samples) ] # Now lets use 'perf evlist -v' to look at the branch_sample_type: # perf evlist -v cycles: size: 120, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CALLCHAIN|CPU|PERIOD|BRANCH_STACK, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, precise_ip: 3, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1, ksymbol: 1, bpf_event: 1, branch_sample_type: USER|CALL_STACK|NO_FLAGS|NO_CYCLES|HW_INDEX # So the machine has the kernel feature, and it was correctly added to perf_event_attr.branch_sample_type, for the default 'cycles' event. If we do it in another machine, where the kernel lacks the HW_INDEX feature, we get: # perf record --call-graph lbr -a sleep 2s [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.690 MB perf.data (499 samples) ] # perf evlist -v cycles: size: 120, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CALLCHAIN|CPU|PERIOD|BRANCH_STACK, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, precise_ip: 3, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1, ksymbol: 1, bpf_event: 1, branch_sample_type: USER|CALL_STACK|NO_FLAGS|NO_CYCLES # No HW_INDEX in attr.branch_sample_type.

perf tools: Add hw_idx in struct branch_stack

2020-03-10T00:42:53Z

The low level index of raw branch records for the most recent branch can be recorded in a sample with PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX branch_sample_type. Extend struct branch_stack to support it. However, if the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX is not applied, only nr and entries[] will be output by kernel. The pointer of entries[] could be wrong, since the output format is different with new struct branch_stack. Add a variable no_hw_idx in struct perf_sample to indicate whether the hw_idx is output. Add get_branch_entry() to return corresponding pointer of entries[0]. To make dummy branch sample consistent as new branch sample, add hw_idx in struct dummy_branch_stack for cs-etm and intel-pt. Apply the new struct branch_stack for synthetic events as well. Extend test case sample-parsing to support new struct branch_stack. Committer notes: Renamed get_branch_entries() to perf_sample__branch_entries() to have proper namespacing and pave the way for this to be moved to libperf, eventually. Add 'static' to that inline as it is in a header. Add 'hw_idx' to 'struct dummy_branch_stack' in cs-etm.c to fix the build on arm64.

perf stat: Use affinity for reading

2019-11-29T15:20:45Z

Restructure event reading to use affinity to minimize the number of IPIs needed.

perf stat: Use affinity for opening events

2019-11-29T15:20:45Z

Restructure the event opening in perf stat to cycle through the events by CPU after setting affinity to that CPU. This eliminates IPI overhead in the perf API. We have to loop through the CPU in the outter builtin-stat code instead of leaving that to low level functions. It has to change the weak group fallback strategy slightly. Since we cannot easily undo the opens for other CPUs move the weak group retry to a separate loop. Before with a large test case with 94 CPUs: % time seconds usecs/call calls errors syscall ------ ----------- ----------- --------- --------- ---------------- 42.75 4.050910 67 60046 110 perf_event_open After: 26.86 0.944396 16 58069 110 perf_event_open (the number changes slightly because the weak group retries work differently and the test case relies on weak groups) Committer notes: Added one of the hunks in a patch provided by Andi after I noticed that the "event times" 'perf test' entry was segfaulting.
