2010-05-10perf/trace/scripting: rwtop script cleanupTom Zanussi
A couple of fixes for the rwtop script: - printing the totals and clearing the hashes in the signal handler eventually leads to various random and serious problems when running the rwtop script continuously. Moving the print_totals() calls to the event handlers solves that problem, and the event handlers are invoked frequently enough that it doesn't affect the timeliness of the output. - Fix nuisance 'use of uninitialized value' warnings Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Message-Id: <1273466820-9330-4-git-send-email-tzanussi@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2010-05-10perf hist: Introduce hists class and move lots of methods to itArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
In cbbc79a we introduced support for multiple events by introducing a new "event_stat_id" struct and then made several perf_session methods receive a point to it instead of a pointer to perf_session, and kept the event_stats and hists rb_tree in perf_session. While working on the new newt based browser, I realised that it would be better to introduce a new class, "hists" (short for "histograms"), renaming the "event_stat_id" struct and the perf_session methods that were really "hists" methods, as they manipulate only struct hists members, not touching anything in the other perf_session members. Other optimizations, such as calculating the maximum lenght of a symbol name present in an hists instance will be possible as we add them, avoiding a re-traversal just for finding that information. The rationale for the name "hists" to replace "event_stat_id" is that we may have multiple sets of hists for the same event_stat id, as, for instance, the 'perf diff' tool has, so event stat id is not what characterizes what this struct and the functions that manipulate it do.

2010-05-09perf session: Embed the host machine data on perf_sessionArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
We have just one host on a given session, and that is the most common setup right now, so embed a ->host_machine struct machine instance directly in the perf_session class, check if we're looking for it before going to the rb_tree. This also fixes a problem found when we try to process old perf.data files where we didn't have MMAP events for the kernel and modules and thus don't create the kernel maps, do it in event__preprocess_sample if it wasn't already.

2010-05-09perf: Provide a new deterministic events reordering algorithmFrederic Weisbecker
The current events reordering algorithm is based on a heuristic that gets broken once we deal with a very fast flow of events. Indeed the time period based flushing is not suitable anymore in the following case, assuming we have a flush period of two seconds. CPU 0 | CPU 1 | cnt1 timestamps | cnt1 timestamps | 0 | 0 1 | 1 2 | 2 3 | 3 [...] | [...] 4 seconds later If we spend too much time to read the buffers (case of a lot of events to record in each buffers or when we have a lot of CPU buffers to read), in the next pass the CPU 0 buffer could contain a slice of several seconds of events. We'll read them all and notice we've reached the period to flush. In the above example we flush the first half of the CPU 0 buffer, then we read the CPU 1 buffer where we have events that were on the flush slice and then the reordering fails. It's simple to reproduce with: perf lock record perf bench sched messaging To solve this, we use a new solution that doesn't rely on an heuristical time slice period anymore but on a deterministic basis based on how perf record does its job. perf record saves the buffers through passes. A pass is a tour on every buffers from every CPUs. This is made in order: for each CPU we read the buffers of every counters. So the more buffers we visit, the later will be the timstamps of their events. When perf record finishes a pass it records a PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND pseudo event. We record the max timestamp t found in the pass n. Assuming these timestamps are monotonic across cpus, we know that if a buffer still has events with timestamps below t, they will be all available and then read in the pass n + 1. Hence when we start to read the pass n + 2, we can safely flush every events with timestamps below t. ============ PASS n ================= CPU 0 | CPU 1 | cnt1 timestamps | cnt2 timestamps 1 | 2 2 | 3 - | 4 <--- max recorded ============ PASS n + 1 ============== CPU 0 | CPU 1 | cnt1 timestamps | cnt2 timestamps 3 | 5 4 | 6 5 | 7 <---- max recorded Flush every events below timestamp 4 ============ PASS n + 2 ============== CPU 0 | CPU 1 | cnt1 timestamps | cnt2 timestamps 6 | 8 7 | 9 - | 10 Flush every events below timestamp 7 etc... It also works on perf.data versions that don't have PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND pseudo events. The difference is that the events will be only flushed in the end of the perf.data processing. It will then consume more memory and scale less with large perf.data files.

And while we're "borrowing" counters from these subsets we should not be preempted (well, strictly speaking in p4_hw_config we just pre-set reference to the subset which allow to save some cycles in schedule routine if it happens on the same cpu). So use get_cpu/put_cpu pair. Also p4_pmu_schedule_events should use smp_processor_id rather than raw_ version. This allow us to catch up preemption issue (if there will ever be).

2010-05-08perf_event: Make software events work againPaul Mackerras
Commit 6bde9b6ce0127e2a56228a2071536d422be31336 ("perf: Add group scheduling transactional APIs") added code to allow a group to be scheduled in a single transaction. However, it introduced a bug in handling events whose pmu does not implement transactions -- at the end of scheduling in the events in the group, in the non-transactional case the code now falls through to the group_error label, and proceeds to unschedule all the events in the group and return failure. This fixes it by returning 0 (success) in the non-transactional case.

2010-05-07perf: Add group scheduling transactional APIsLin Ming
Add group scheduling transactional APIs to struct pmu. These APIs will be implemented in arch code, based on Peter's idea as below. > the idea behind hw_perf_group_sched_in() is to not perform > schedulability tests on each event in the group, but to add the group > as a whole and then perform one test. > > Of course, when that test fails, you'll have to roll-back the whole > group again. > > So start_txn (or a better name) would simply toggle a flag in the pmu > implementation that will make pmu::enable() not perform the > schedulablilty test. > > Then commit_txn() will perform the schedulability test (so note the > method has to have a !void return value. > > This will allow us to use the regular > kernel/perf_event.c::group_sched_in() and all the rollback code. > Currently each hw_perf_group_sched_in() implementation duplicates all > the rolllback code (with various bugs). ->start_txn: Start group events scheduling transaction, set a flag to make pmu::enable() not perform the schedulability test, it will be performed at commit time. ->commit_txn: Commit group events scheduling transaction, perform the group schedulability as a whole ->cancel_txn: Stop group events scheduling transaction, clear the flag so pmu::enable() will perform the schedulability test.

2010-05-07perf, x86: Improve the PEBS ABIPeter Zijlstra
Rename perf_event_attr::precise to perf_event_attr::precise_ip and widen it to 2 bits. This new field describes the required precision of the PERF_SAMPLE_IP field: 0 - SAMPLE_IP can have arbitrary skid 1 - SAMPLE_IP must have constant skid 2 - SAMPLE_IP requested to have 0 skid 3 - SAMPLE_IP must have 0 skid And modify the Intel PEBS code accordingly. The PEBS implementation now supports up to precise_ip == 2, where we perform the IP fixup. Also s/PERF_RECORD_MISC_EXACT/&_IP/ to clarify its meaning, this bit should be set for each PERF_SAMPLE_IP field known to match the actual instruction triggering the event. This new scheme allows for a PEBS mode that uses the buffer for more than a single event.

2010-05-07perf, x86: Use weight instead of cmask in for_each_event_constraint()Robert Richter
There may exist constraints with a cmask set to zero. In this case for_each_event_constraint() will not work properly. Now weight is used instead of the cmask for loop exit detection. Weight is always a value other than zero since the default contains the HWEIGHT from the counter mask and in other cases a value of zero does not fit too. This is in preparation of ibs event constraints that wont have a cmask.
