perf tools: Use just forward declarations for struct thread where possible

2017-04-24T16:43:35Z

Removing various instances of unnecessary includes, reducing the maze of header dependencies. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-hwu6eyuok9pc57alookyzmsf@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Include sys/param.h where needed

2017-04-24T16:43:30Z

As it is going away from util.h, where it is not needed. This is mostly for things like MAXPATHLEN, MAX() and MIN(), these later two probably should go away in favor of its kernel sources replacements.

perf tools: Include errno.h where needed

2017-04-19T16:01:51Z

Removing it from util.h, part of an effort to disentangle the includes hell, that makes changes to util.h or something included by it to cause a complete rebuild of the tools.

perf report: Show inline stack for browser mode

2017-03-27T15:12:59Z

If the address belongs to an inlined function, the source information back to the first non-inlined function will be printed. For example: 1. Show inlined function name perf report -g function --inline - 0.69% 0.00% inline ld-2.23.so [.] dl_main - dl_main 0.56% _dl_relocate_object _dl_relocate_object (inline) elf_dynamic_do_Rela (inline) 2. Show the file/line information perf report -g address --inline - 0.69% 0.00% inline ld-2.23.so [.] _dl_start _dl_start rtld.c:307 /build/glibc-GKVZIf/glibc-2.23/elf/rtld.c:413 (inline) + _dl_sysdep_start dl-sysdep.c:250 Signed-off-by: Yao Jin Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Tested-by: Milian Wolff Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Kan Liang Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1490474069-15823-6-git-send-email-yao.jin@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Add 'cgroup_id' sort order keyword

2017-03-14T18:17:37Z

This patch introduces a cgroup identifier entry field in perf report to identify or distinguish data of different cgroups. It uses the device number and inode number of cgroup namespace, included in perf data with the new PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES event, as cgroup identifier. With the assumption that each container is created with it's own cgroup namespace, this allows assessment/analysis of multiple containers at once. A simple test for this would be to clone a few processes passing SIGCHILD & CLONE_NEWCROUP flags to each of them, execute shell and run different workloads on each of those contexts, while running perf record command with --namespaces option. Shown below is the output of perf report, sorted with cgroup identifier, on perf.data generated with the above test scenario, clearly indicating one context's considerable use of kernel memory in comparison with others: $ perf report -s cgroup_id,sample --stdio # # Total Lost Samples: 0 # # Samples: 5K of event 'kmem:kmalloc' # Event count (approx.): 5965 # # Overhead cgroup id (dev/inode) Samples # ........ ..................... ............ # 81.27% 3/0xeffffffb 4848 16.24% 3/0xf00000d0 969 1.16% 3/0xf00000ce 69 0.82% 3/0xf00000cf 49 0.50% 0/0x0 30 While this is a start, there is further scope of improving this. For example, instead of cgroup namespace's device and inode numbers, dev and inode numbers of some or all namespaces may be used to distinguish which processes are running in a given container context. Also, scripts to map device and inode info to containers sounds plausible for better tracing of containers.

It now can have negative value to suppress the message entirely. So it needs to check it being positive.

perf callchain: Reference count maps

2017-01-31T19:19:06Z

If dso__load_kcore frees all of the existing maps, but one has already been attached to a callchain cursor node, then we can get a SIGSEGV in any function that happens to try to use this invalid cursor. Use the existing map refcount mechanism to forestall cleanup of a map until the cursor iterates past the node.
