So now we can use:
# perf trace -e pkey_*
532.784 ( 0.006 ms): pkey/16018 pkey_alloc(init_val: DISABLE_WRITE) = -1 EINVAL Invalid argument
532.795 ( 0.004 ms): pkey/16018 pkey_mprotect(start: 0x7f380d0a6000, len: 4096, prot: READ|WRITE, pkey: -1) = 0
532.801 ( 0.002 ms): pkey/16018 pkey_free(pkey: -1 ) = -1 EINVAL Invalid argument
^C[root@jouet ~]#
Or '-e epoll*', '-e *msg*', etc.
Combining syscall names with perf events, tracepoints, etc, continues to
be valid, i.e. this is possible:
# perf probe -L sys_nanosleep
<SyS_nanosleep@/home/acme/git/linux/kernel/time/hrtimer.c:0>
0 SYSCALL_DEFINE2(nanosleep, struct timespec __user *, rqtp,
struct timespec __user *, rmtp)
{
struct timespec64 tu;
5 if (get_timespec64(&tu, rqtp))
6 return -EFAULT;
if (!timespec64_valid(&tu))
9 return -EINVAL;
11 current->restart_block.nanosleep.type = rmtp ? TT_NATIVE : TT_NONE;
12 current->restart_block.nanosleep.rmtp = rmtp;
13 return hrtimer_nanosleep(&tu, HRTIMER_MODE_REL, CLOCK_MONOTONIC);
}
# perf probe my_probe="sys_nanosleep:12 rmtp"
Added new event:
probe:my_probe (on sys_nanosleep:12 with rmtp)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:my_probe -aR sleep 1
#
# perf trace -e probe:my_probe/max-stack=5/,*sleep sleep 1
0.427 ( 0.003 ms): sleep/16690 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffefc245090) ...
0.430 ( ): probe:my_probe:(ffffffffbd112923) rmtp=0)
sys_nanosleep ([kernel.kallsyms])
do_syscall_64 ([kernel.kallsyms])
return_from_SYSCALL_64 ([kernel.kallsyms])
__nanosleep_nocancel (/usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
0.427 (1000.208 ms): sleep/16690 ... [continued]: nanosleep()) = 0

=============

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
perf-trace - strace inspired tool
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'perf trace'
|
|
'perf trace record'
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
This command will show the events associated with the target, initially
|
|
syscalls, but other system events like pagefaults, task lifetime events,
|
|
scheduling events, etc.
|
|
|
|
This is a live mode tool in addition to working with perf.data files like
|
|
the other perf tools. Files can be generated using the 'perf record' command
|
|
but the session needs to include the raw_syscalls events (-e 'raw_syscalls:*').
|
|
Alternatively, 'perf trace record' can be used as a shortcut to
|
|
automatically include the raw_syscalls events when writing events to a file.
|
|
|
|
The following options apply to perf trace; options to perf trace record are
|
|
found in the perf record man page.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
-a::
|
|
--all-cpus::
|
|
System-wide collection from all CPUs.
|
|
|
|
-e::
|
|
--expr::
|
|
--event::
|
|
List of syscalls and other perf events (tracepoints, HW cache events,
|
|
etc) to show. Globbing is supported, e.g.: "epoll_*", "*msg*", etc.
|
|
See 'perf list' for a complete list of events.
|
|
Prefixing with ! shows all syscalls but the ones specified. You may
|
|
need to escape it.
|
|
|
|
-D msecs::
|
|
--delay msecs::
|
|
After starting the program, wait msecs before measuring. This is useful to
|
|
filter out the startup phase of the program, which is often very different.
|
|
|
|
-o::
|
|
--output=::
|
|
Output file name.
|
|
|
|
-p::
|
|
--pid=::
|
|
Record events on existing process ID (comma separated list).
|
|
|
|
-t::
|
|
--tid=::
|
|
Record events on existing thread ID (comma separated list).
|
|
|
|
-u::
|
|
--uid=::
|
|
Record events in threads owned by uid. Name or number.
|
|
|
|
--filter-pids=::
|
|
Filter out events for these pids and for 'trace' itself (comma separated list).
|
|
|
|
-v::
|
|
--verbose=::
|
|
Verbosity level.
|
|
|
|
--no-inherit::
|
|
Child tasks do not inherit counters.
|
|
|
|
-m::
|
|
--mmap-pages=::
|
|
Number of mmap data pages (must be a power of two) or size
|
|
specification with appended unit character - B/K/M/G. The
|
|
size is rounded up to have nearest pages power of two value.
|
|
|
|
-C::
|
|
--cpu::
|
|
Collect samples only on the list of CPUs provided. Multiple CPUs can be provided as a
|
|
comma-separated list with no space: 0,1. Ranges of CPUs are specified with -: 0-2.
|
|
In per-thread mode with inheritance mode on (default), Events are captured only when
|
|
the thread executes on the designated CPUs. Default is to monitor all CPUs.
|
|
|
|
--duration:
|
|
Show only events that had a duration greater than N.M ms.
|
|
|
|
--sched:
|
|
Accrue thread runtime and provide a summary at the end of the session.
|
|
|
|
-i
|
|
--input
|
|
Process events from a given perf data file.
|
|
|
|
-T
|
|
--time
|
|
Print full timestamp rather time relative to first sample.
|
|
|
|
--comm::
|
|
Show process COMM right beside its ID, on by default, disable with --no-comm.
|
|
|
|
-s::
|
|
--summary::
|
|
Show only a summary of syscalls by thread with min, max, and average times
|
|
(in msec) and relative stddev.
|
|
|
|
-S::
|
|
--with-summary::
|
|
Show all syscalls followed by a summary by thread with min, max, and
|
|
average times (in msec) and relative stddev.
|
|
|
|
--tool_stats::
|
|
Show tool stats such as number of times fd->pathname was discovered thru
|
|
hooking the open syscall return + vfs_getname or via reading /proc/pid/fd, etc.
|
|
|
|
-F=[all|min|maj]::
|
|
--pf=[all|min|maj]::
|
|
Trace pagefaults. Optionally, you can specify whether you want minor,
|
|
major or all pagefaults. Default value is maj.
|
|
|
|
--syscalls::
|
|
Trace system calls. This options is enabled by default, disable with
|
|
--no-syscalls.
|
|
|
|
--call-graph [mode,type,min[,limit],order[,key][,branch]]::
|
|
Setup and enable call-graph (stack chain/backtrace) recording.
|
|
See `--call-graph` section in perf-record and perf-report
|
|
man pages for details. The ones that are most useful in 'perf trace'
|
|
are 'dwarf' and 'lbr', where available, try: 'perf trace --call-graph dwarf'.
|
|
|
|
Using this will, for the root user, bump the value of --mmap-pages to 4
|
|
times the maximum for non-root users, based on the kernel.perf_event_mlock_kb
|
|
sysctl. This is done only if the user doesn't specify a --mmap-pages value.
|
|
|
|
--kernel-syscall-graph::
|
|
Show the kernel callchains on the syscall exit path.
|
|
|
|
--max-stack::
|
|
Set the stack depth limit when parsing the callchain, anything
|
|
beyond the specified depth will be ignored. Note that at this point
|
|
this is just about the presentation part, i.e. the kernel is still
|
|
not limiting, the overhead of callchains needs to be set via the
|
|
knobs in --call-graph dwarf.
|
|
|
|
Implies '--call-graph dwarf' when --call-graph not present on the
|
|
command line, on systems where DWARF unwinding was built in.
|
|
|
|
Default: /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack when present for
|
|
live sessions (without --input/-i), 127 otherwise.
|
|
|
|
--min-stack::
|
|
Set the stack depth limit when parsing the callchain, anything
|
|
below the specified depth will be ignored. Disabled by default.
|
|
|
|
Implies '--call-graph dwarf' when --call-graph not present on the
|
|
command line, on systems where DWARF unwinding was built in.
|
|
|
|
--proc-map-timeout::
|
|
When processing pre-existing threads /proc/XXX/mmap, it may take a long time,
|
|
because the file may be huge. A time out is needed in such cases.
|
|
This option sets the time out limit. The default value is 500 ms.
|
|
|
|
PAGEFAULTS
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
When tracing pagefaults, the format of the trace is as follows:
|
|
|
|
<min|maj>fault [<ip.symbol>+<ip.offset>] => <addr.dso@addr.offset> (<map type><addr level>).
|
|
|
|
- min/maj indicates whether fault event is minor or major;
|
|
- ip.symbol shows symbol for instruction pointer (the code that generated the
|
|
fault); if no debug symbols available, perf trace will print raw IP;
|
|
- addr.dso shows DSO for the faulted address;
|
|
- map type is either 'd' for non-executable maps or 'x' for executable maps;
|
|
- addr level is either 'k' for kernel dso or '.' for user dso.
|
|
|
|
For symbols resolution you may need to install debugging symbols.
|
|
|
|
Please be aware that duration is currently always 0 and doesn't reflect actual
|
|
time it took for fault to be handled!
|
|
|
|
When --verbose specified, perf trace tries to print all available information
|
|
for both IP and fault address in the form of dso@symbol+offset.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
Trace only major pagefaults:
|
|
|
|
$ perf trace --no-syscalls -F
|
|
|
|
Trace syscalls, major and minor pagefaults:
|
|
|
|
$ perf trace -F all
|
|
|
|
1416.547 ( 0.000 ms): python/20235 majfault [CRYPTO_push_info_+0x0] => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0@0x61be0 (x.)
|
|
|
|
As you can see, there was major pagefault in python process, from
|
|
CRYPTO_push_info_ routine which faulted somewhere in libcrypto.so.
