2009-08-16perf: Build with stack-protector and with -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2Ingo Molnar
Up our defences a bit.

2009-08-16perf: Enable more compiler warningsIngo Molnar
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 Weisbecker
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.

The callchain fractal mode builds each new total hits in a new branch of profiling by using the parent's hits of the current branch plus the hits of the children. This is wrong, the total hits of a branch should be made of the sum of every children hits, we must ignore the parent hits in this scope. This patch also fixes another mistake with the hit counting.

2009-08-09perf_counter: Fix/complete ftrace event records samplingFrederic Weisbecker
This patch implements the kernel side support for ftrace event record sampling. A new counter sampling attribute is added: PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD which requests ftrace events record sampling. In this case if a PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT counter is active and a tracepoint fires, we emit the tracepoint binary record to the perfcounter event buffer, as a sample. Result, after setting PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD attribute from perf record: perf record -f -F 1 -a -e workqueue:workqueue_execution perf report -D 0x21e18 [0x48]: event: 9 . . ... raw event: size 72 bytes . 0000: 09 00 00 00 01 00 48 00 d0 c7 00 81 ff ff ff ff ......H........ . 0010: 0a 00 00 00 0a 00 00 00 21 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ........!...... . 0020: 2b 00 01 02 0a 00 00 00 0a 00 00 00 65 76 65 6e +...........eve . 0030: 74 73 2f 31 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0a 00 00 00 ts/1........... . 0040: e0 b1 31 81 ff ff ff ff ....... . 0x21e18 [0x48]: PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE (IP, 1): 10: 0xffffffff8100c7d0 period: 33 The raw ftrace binary record starts at offset 0020. Translation: struct trace_entry { type = 0x2b = 43; flags = 1; preempt_count = 2; pid = 0xa = 10; tgid = 0xa = 10; } thread_comm = "events/1" thread_pid = 0xa = 10; func = 0xffffffff8131b1e0 = flush_to_ldisc() What will come next? - Userspace support ('perf trace'), 'flight data recorder' mode for perf trace, etc. - The unconditional copy from the profiling callback brings some costs however if someone wants no such sampling to occur, and needs to be fixed in the future. For that we need to have an instant access to the perf counter attribute. This is a matter of a flag to add in the struct ftrace_event. - Take care of the events recursivity! Don't ever try to record a lock event for example, it seems some locking is used in the profiling fast path and lead to a tracing recursivity. That will be fixed using raw spinlock or recursivity protection. - [...] - Profit! :-) Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi> Cc: Gabriel Munteanu <eduard.munteanu@linux360.ro> Cc: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
