2016-06-23perf script: Add callindent optionAdrian Hunter
Based on patches from Andi Kleen. When printing PT instruction traces with perf script it is rather useful to see some indentation for the call tree. This patch adds a new callindent field to perf script that prints spaces for the function call stack depth. We already have code to track the function call stack for PT, that we can reuse with minor modifications. The resulting output is not quite as nice as ftrace yet, but a lot better than what was there before. Note there are some corner cases when the thread stack gets code confused and prints incorrect indentation. Even with that it is fairly useful. When displaying kernel code traces it is recommended to run as root, as otherwise perf doesn't understand the kernel addresses properly, and may not reset the call stack correctly on kernel boundaries. Example output: sudo perf-with-kcore record eg2 -a -e intel_pt// -- sleep 1 sudo perf-with-kcore script eg2 --ns -F callindent,time,comm,pid,sym,ip,addr,flags,cpu --itrace=cre | less ... swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116586: call irq_exit ffffffff8104d620 smp_call_function_single_interrupt+0x30 => ffffffff8107e720 irq_exit swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116586: call idle_cpu ffffffff8107e769 irq_exit+0x49 => ffffffff810a3970 idle_cpu swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116586: return idle_cpu ffffffff810a39b7 idle_cpu+0x47 => ffffffff8107e76e irq_exit swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116586: call tick_nohz_irq_exit ffffffff8107e7bd irq_exit+0x9d => ffffffff810f2fc0 tick_nohz_irq_exit swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116919: call __tick_nohz_idle_enter ffffffff810f2fe0 tick_nohz_irq_exit+0x20 => ffffffff810f28d0 __tick_nohz_idle_enter swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116919: call ktime_get ffffffff810f28f1 __tick_nohz_idle_enter+0x21 => ffffffff810e9ec0 ktime_get swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116919: call read_tsc ffffffff810e9ef6 ktime_get+0x36 => ffffffff81035070 read_tsc swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116919: return read_tsc ffffffff81035084 read_tsc+0x14 => ffffffff810e9efc ktime_get swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116919: return ktime_get ffffffff810e9f46 ktime_get+0x86 => ffffffff810f28f6 __tick_nohz_idle_enter swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116919: call sched_clock_idle_sleep_event ffffffff810f290b __tick_nohz_idle_enter+0x3b => ffffffff810a7380 sched_clock_idle_sleep_event swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116919: call sched_clock_cpu ffffffff810a738b sched_clock_idle_sleep_event+0xb => ffffffff810a72e0 sched_clock_cpu swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116919: call sched_clock ffffffff810a734d sched_clock_cpu+0x6d => ffffffff81035750 sched_clock swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116919: call native_sched_clock ffffffff81035754 sched_clock+0x4 => ffffffff81035640 native_sched_clock swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116919: return native_sched_clock ffffffff8103568c native_sched_clock+0x4c => ffffffff81035759 sched_clock swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116919: return sched_clock ffffffff8103575c sched_clock+0xc => ffffffff810a7352 sched_clock_cpu swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116919: return sched_clock_cpu ffffffff810a7356 sched_clock_cpu+0x76 => ffffffff810a7390 sched_clock_idle_sleep_event swapper 0 [000] 5830.389116919: return sched_clock_idle_sleep_event ffffffff810a7391 sched_clock_idle_sleep_event+0x11 => ffffffff810f2910 __tick_nohz_idle_enter ...

2016-06-23perf script: Print sample flags more nicelyAdrian Hunter
The flags field is synthesized and may have a value when Instruction Trace decoding. The flags are "bcrosyiABEx" which stand for branch, call, return, conditional, system, asynchronous, interrupt, transaction abort, trace begin, trace end, and in transaction, respectively. Change the display so that known combinations of flags are printed more nicely e.g.: "call" for "bc", "return" for "br", "jcc" for "bo", "jmp" for "b", "int" for "bci", "iret" for "bri", "syscall" for "bcs", "sysret" for "brs", "async" for "by", "hw int" for "bcyi", "tx abrt" for "bA", "tr strt" for "bB", "tr end" for "bE". However the "x" flag will be displayed separately in those cases e.g. "jcc (x)" for a condition branch within a transaction. Example: perf record -e intel_pt//u ls perf script --ns -F comm,cpu,pid,tid,time,ip,addr,sym,dso,symoff,flags ... ls 3689/3689 [001] 2062.020965237: jcc 7f06a958847a _dl_sysdep_start+0xfa (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) => 7f06a9588450 _dl_sysdep_start+0xd0 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) ls 3689/3689 [001] 2062.020965237: jmp 7f06a9588461 _dl_sysdep_start+0xe1 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) => 7f06a95885a0 _dl_sysdep_start+0x220 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) ls 3689/3689 [001] 2062.020965237: jmp 7f06a95885a4 _dl_sysdep_start+0x224 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) => 7f06a9588470 _dl_sysdep_start+0xf0 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) ls 3689/3689 [001] 2062.020965904: call 7f06a95884c3 _dl_sysdep_start+0x143 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) => 7f06a9589140 brk+0x0 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) ls 3689/3689 [001] 2062.020965904: syscall 7f06a958914a brk+0xa (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) => 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) ls 3689/3689 [001] 2062.020966237: tr strt 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) => 7f06a958914c brk+0xc (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) ls 3689/3689 [001] 2062.020966237: return 7f06a9589165 brk+0x25 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) => 7f06a95884c8 _dl_sysdep_start+0x148 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) ls 3689/3689 [001] 2062.020966237: jcc 7f06a95884d7 _dl_sysdep_start+0x157 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) => 7f06a95885f0 _dl_sysdep_start+0x270 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) ls 3689/3689 [001] 2062.020966237: call 7f06a95885f0 _dl_sysdep_start+0x270 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) => 7f06a958ac50 strlen+0x0 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) ls 3689/3689 [001] 2062.020966237: jcc 7f06a958ac6e strlen+0x1e (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) => 7f06a958ac60 strlen+0x10 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so) ...

2015-10-29perf script: Enable printing of branch stackStephane Eranian
This patch improves perf script by enabling printing of the branch stack via the 'brstack' and 'brstacksym' arguments to the field selection option -F. The option is off by default and operates only if the perf.data file has branch stack content. The branches are printed in to/from pairs. The most recent branch is printed first. The number of branch entries vary based on the underlying hardware and filtering used. The brstack prints FROM/TO addresses in raw hexadecimal format. The brstacksym prints FROM/TO addresses in symbolic form wherever possible. $ perf script -F ip,brstack 5d3000 0x401aa0/0x5d2000/M/-/-/-/0 ... $ perf script -F ip,brstacksym 4011e0 noploop+0x0/noploop+0x0/P/-/-/0 The notation F/T/M/X/A/C describes the attributes of the branch.

For perf report/script srcline currently only the base file name of the source file is printed. This is a good default because it usually fits on the screen. But in some cases we want to know the full file name, for example to aggregate hits per file. In the later case we need more than the base file name to resolve file naming collisions: for example the kernel source has ~70 files named "core.c" It's also useful as input to post processing tools which want to point to the right file.

2015-04-29perf script: Add field option 'flags' to print sample flagsAdrian Hunter
Instruction tracing will typically have access to information about the instruction being executed for a particular ip sample. Some of that information will be available in the 'flags' member of struct perf_sample. With the addition of transactions events synthesis to Instruction Tracing options, there is a need to be able easily to see the flags because they show whether the ip is at the start, commit or abort of a tranasaction. Consequently add an option to display the flags. The flags are "bcrosyiABEx" which stand for branch, call, return, conditional, system, asynchronous, interrupt, transaction abort, trace begin, trace end, and in transaction, respectively. Example using Intel PT: perf script -fip,time,event,sym,addr,flags ... 1288.721584105: branches:u: bo 401146 main => 401152 main 1288.721584105: transactions: x 0 401164 main 1288.721584105: branches:u: bx 40117c main => 40119b main 1288.721584105: branches:u: box 4011a4 main => 40117e main 1288.721584105: branches:u: bcx 401187 main => 401094 g ... 1288.721591645: branches:u: bx 4010c4 g => 4010cb g 1288.721591645: branches:u: brx 4010cc g => 401189 main 1288.721591645: transactions: 0 4011a6 main 1288.721593199: branches:u: b 4011a9 main => 4011af main 1288.721593199: branches:u: bo 4011bc main => 40113e main 1288.721593199: branches:u: b 401150 main => 40115a main 1288.721593199: transactions: x 0 401164 main 1288.721593199: branches:u: bx 40117c main => 40119b main 1288.721593199: branches:u: box 4011a4 main => 40117e main 1288.721593199: branches:u: bcx 401187 main => 40105e f ... 1288.722284747: branches:u: brx 401093 f => 401189 main 1288.722284747: branches:u: box 4011a4 main => 40117e main 1288.722284747: branches:u: bcx 401187 main => 40105e f 1288.722285883: transactions: bA 0 401071 f 1288.722285883: branches:u: bA 401071 f => 40116a main 1288.722285883: branches:u: bE 40116a main => 0 [unknown] 1288.722297174: branches:u: bB 0 [unknown] => 40116a main ...

2011-12-23perf report: Accept fifos as input fileRobert Richter
The default input file for perf report is not handled the same way as perf record does it for its output file. This leads to unexpected behavior of perf report, etc. E.g.: # perf record -a -e cpu-cycles sleep 2 | perf report | cat failed to open perf.data: No such file or directory (try 'perf record' first) While perf record writes to a fifo, perf report expects perf.data to be read. This patch changes this to accept fifos as input file. Applies to the following commands: perf annotate perf buildid-list perf evlist perf kmem perf lock perf report perf sched perf script perf timechart Also fixes char const* -> const char* type declaration for filename strings. v2: * Prevent potential null pointer access to input_name in builtin-report.c.

2011-10-07perf tools: Make perf.data more self-descriptive (v8)Stephane Eranian
The goal of this patch is to include more information about the host environment into the perf.data so it is more self-descriptive. Overtime, profiles are captured on various machines and it becomes hard to track what was recorded, on what machine and when. This patch provides a way to solve this by extending the perf.data file with basic information about the host machine. To add those extensions, we leverage the feature bits capabilities of the perf.data format. The change is backward compatible with existing perf.data files. We define the following useful new extensions: - HEADER_HOSTNAME: the hostname - HEADER_OSRELEASE: the kernel release number - HEADER_ARCH: the hw architecture - HEADER_CPUDESC: generic CPU description - HEADER_NRCPUS: number of online/avail cpus - HEADER_CMDLINE: perf command line - HEADER_VERSION: perf version - HEADER_TOPOLOGY: cpu topology - HEADER_EVENT_DESC: full event description (attrs) - HEADER_CPUID: easy-to-parse low level CPU identication The small granularity for the entries is to make it easier to extend without breaking backward compatiblity. Many entries are provided as ASCII strings. Perf report/script have been modified to print the basic information as easy-to-parse ASCII strings. Extended information about CPU and NUMA topology may be requested with the -I option. Thanks to David Ahern for reviewing and testing the many versions of this patch. $ perf report --stdio # ======== # captured on : Mon Sep 26 15:22:14 2011 # hostname : quad # os release : 3.1.0-rc4-tip # perf version : 3.1.0-rc4 # arch : x86_64 # nrcpus online : 4 # nrcpus avail : 4 # cpudesc : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz # cpuid : GenuineIntel,6,15,11 # total memory : 8105360 kB # cmdline : /home/eranian/perfmon/official/tip/build/tools/perf/perf record date # event : name = cycles, type = 0, config = 0x0, config1 = 0x0, config2 = 0x0, excl_usr = 0, excl_kern = 0, id = { 29, 30, 31, # HEADER_CPU_TOPOLOGY info available, use -I to display # HEADER_NUMA_TOPOLOGY info available, use -I to display # ======== # ... $ perf report --stdio -I # ======== # captured on : Mon Sep 26 15:22:14 2011 # hostname : quad # os release : 3.1.0-rc4-tip # perf version : 3.1.0-rc4 # arch : x86_64 # nrcpus online : 4 # nrcpus avail : 4 # cpudesc : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz # cpuid : GenuineIntel,6,15,11 # total memory : 8105360 kB # cmdline : /home/eranian/perfmon/official/tip/build/tools/perf/perf record date # event : name = cycles, type = 0, config = 0x0, config1 = 0x0, config2 = 0x0, excl_usr = 0, excl_kern = 0, id = { 29, 30, 31, # sibling cores : 0-3 # sibling threads : 0 # sibling threads : 1 # sibling threads : 2 # sibling threads : 3 # node0 meminfo : total = 8320608 kB, free = 7571024 kB # node0 cpu list : 0-3 # ======== # ...

2011-07-05perf report/annotate/script: Add option to specify a CPU rangeAnton Blanchard
Add an option to perf report/annotate/script to specify which CPUs to operate on. This enables us to take a single system wide profile and analyse each CPU (or group of CPUs) in isolation. This was useful when profiling a multiprocess workload where the bottleneck was on one CPU but this was hidden in the overall profile. Per process and per thread breakdowns didn't help because multiple processes were running on each CPU and no single process consumed an entire CPU. The patch converts the list of CPUs returned by cpu_map__new into a bitmap for fast lookup. I wanted to use -C to be consistent with perf top/record/stat, but unfortunately perf report already uses -C <comms>. v2: Incorporate suggestions from David Ahern: - Added -c to perf script - Check that SAMPLE_CPU is set when -c is used - Update documentation v3: Create perf_session__cpu_bitmap() Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Acked-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20110704215750.11647eb9@kryten Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2011-03-14perf script: Support custom field selection for outputDavid Ahern
Allow a user to select which fields to print to stdout for event data. Options include comm (command name), tid (thread id), pid (process id), time (perf timestamp), cpu, event (for event name), and trace (for trace data). Default is set to maintain compatibility with current output; this feature does alter output format slightly -- no '-' between command and pid/tid. Thanks to Frederic Weisbecker for detailed suggestions on this approach. Examples (output compressed) 1. trace, default format perf record -ga -e sched:sched_switch perf script swapper 0 [000] 537.037184: sched_switch: prev_comm=swapper prev_pid=0... sshd 1675 [000] 537.037309: sched_switch: prev_comm=sshd prev_pid=1675... netstat 1692 [001] 537.038664: sched_switch: prev_comm=netstat prev_pid=1692... 2. trace, custom format perf record -ga -e sched:sched_switch perf script -f comm,pid,time,trace <--- omitting cpu and event name swapper 0 537.037184: prev_comm=swapper prev_pid=0 prev_prio=120 ... sshd 1675 537.037309: prev_comm=sshd prev_pid=1675 prev_prio=120 ... netstat 1692 537.038664: prev_comm=netstat prev_pid=1692 prev_prio=120 ...
