perf callchain: Support handling complete branch stacks as histograms Currently branch stacks can be only shown as edge histograms for individual branches. I never found this display particularly useful. This implements an alternative mode that creates histograms over complete branch traces, instead of individual branches, similar to how normal callgraphs are handled. This is done by putting it in front of the normal callgraph and then using the normal callgraph histogram infrastructure to unify them. This way in complex functions we can understand the control flow that lead to a particular sample, and may even see some control flow in the caller for short functions. Example (simplified, of course for such simple code this is usually not needed), please run this after the whole patchkit is in, as at this point in the patch order there is no --branch-history, that will be added in a patch after this one: tcall.c: volatile a = 10000, b = 100000, c; __attribute__((noinline)) f2() { c = a / b; } __attribute__((noinline)) f1() { f2(); f2(); } main() { int i; for (i = 0; i < 1000000; i++) f1(); } % perf record -b -g ./tsrc/tcall [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.044 MB perf.data (~1923 samples) ] % perf report --no-children --branch-history ... 54.91% tcall.c:6 [.] f2 tcall | |--65.53%-- f2 tcall.c:5 | | | |--70.83%-- f1 tcall.c:11 | | f1 tcall.c:10 | | main tcall.c:18 | | main tcall.c:18 | | main tcall.c:17 | | main tcall.c:17 | | f1 tcall.c:13 | | f1 tcall.c:13 | | f2 tcall.c:7 | | f2 tcall.c:5 | | f1 tcall.c:12 | | f1 tcall.c:12 | | f2 tcall.c:7 | | f2 tcall.c:5 | | f1 tcall.c:11 | | | --29.17%-- f1 tcall.c:12 | f1 tcall.c:12 | f2 tcall.c:7 | f2 tcall.c:5 | f1 tcall.c:11 | f1 tcall.c:10 | main tcall.c:18 | main tcall.c:18 | main tcall.c:17 | main tcall.c:17 | f1 tcall.c:13 | f1 tcall.c:13 | f2 tcall.c:7 | f2 tcall.c:5 | f1 tcall.c:12 The default output is unchanged. This is only implemented in perf report, no change to record or anywhere else. This adds the basic code to report: - add a new "branch" option to the -g option parser to enable this mode - when the flag is set include the LBR into the callstack in machine.c. The rest of the history code is unchanged and doesn't know the difference between LBR entry and normal call entry. - detect overlaps with the callchain - remove small loop duplicates in the LBR Current limitations: - The LBR flags (mispredict etc.) are not shown in the history and LBR entries have no special marker. - It would be nice if annotate marked the LBR entries somehow (e.g. with arrows) v2: Various fixes. v3: Merge further patches into this one. Fix white space. v4: Improve manpage. Address review feedback. v5: Rename functions. Better error message without -g. Fix crash without -b. v6: Rebase v7: Rebase. Use NO_ENTRY in memset. v8: Port to latest tip. Move add_callchain_ip to separate patch. Skip initial entries in callchain. Minor cleanups.

perf symbols: Improve DSO long names lookup speed with rbtree With workload that spawns and destroys many threads and processes, it was found that perf-mem could took a long time to post-process the perf data after the target workload had completed its operation. The performance bottleneck was found to be the lookup and insertion of the new DSO structures (thousands of them in this case). In a dual-socket Ivy-Bridge E7-4890 v2 machine (30-core, 60-thread), the perf profile below shows what perf was doing after the profiled AIM7 shared workload completed: - 83.94% perf libc-2.11.3.so [.] __strcmp_sse42 - __strcmp_sse42 - 99.82% map__new machine__process_mmap_event perf_session_deliver_event perf_session__process_event __perf_session__process_events cmd_record cmd_mem run_builtin main __libc_start_main - 13.17% perf perf [.] __dsos__findnew __dsos__findnew map__new machine__process_mmap_event perf_session_deliver_event perf_session__process_event __perf_session__process_events cmd_record cmd_mem run_builtin main __libc_start_main So about 97% of CPU times were spent in the map__new() function trying to insert new DSO entry into the DSO linked list. The whole post-processing step took about 9 minutes. The DSO structures are currently searched linearly. So the total processing time will be proportional to n^2. To overcome this performance problem, the DSO code is modified to also put the DSO structures in a RB tree sorted by its long name in additional to being in a simple linked list. With this change, the processing time will become proportional to n*log(n) which will be much quicker for large n. However, the short name will still be searched using the old linear searching method. With that patch in place, the same perf-mem post-processing step took less than 30 seconds to complete.

perf tools: Fix build-id matching on vmlinux There's a problem on finding correct kernel symbols when perf report runs on a different kernel. Although a part of the problem was solved by the prior commit 0a7e6d1b6844 ("perf tools: Check recorded kernel version when finding vmlinux"), there's a remaining problem still. When perf records samples, it synthesizes the kernel map using machine__mmap_name() and ref_reloc_sym like "[kernel.kallsyms]_text". You can easily see it using 'perf report -D' command. After finishing record, it goes through the recorded events to find maps/dsos actually used. And then record build-id info of them. During this process, it needs to load symbols in a dso and it'd call dso__load_vmlinux_path() since the default value of the symbol_conf. try_vmlinux_path is true. However it changes dso->long_name to a real path of the vmlinux file (e.g. /lib/modules/3.16.4/build/vmlinux) if one is running on a custom kernel. It resulted in that perf report reads the build-id of the vmlinux, but cannot use it since it only knows about the [kernel.kallsyms] map. It then falls back to possible vmlinux paths by using the recorded kernel version (in case of a recent version) or a running kernel silently. Even with the recent tools, this still has a possibility of breaking the result. As the build directory is a symbolic link, if one built a new kernel in the same directory with different source/config, the old link to vmlinux will point the new file. So it's absolutely needed to use build-id when finding a kernel image. In this patch, it's now changed to try to search a kernel dso in the existing dso list which was constructed during build-id table parsing so it'll always have a build-id. If not found, search "[kernel.kallsyms]".

perf tools: Sample after exit loses thread correlation Occassionally events (e.g., context-switch, sched tracepoints) are losing the conversion of sample data associated with a thread. For example: $ perf record -e sched:sched_switch -c 1 -a -- sleep 5 $ perf script <selected events shown> ls 30482 [000] 1379727.583037: sched:sched_switch: prev_comm=ls prev_pid=30482 ... ls 30482 [000] 1379727.586339: sched:sched_switch: prev_comm=ls prev_pid=30482 ... :30482 30482 [000] 1379727.589462: sched:sched_switch: prev_comm=ls prev_pid=30482 ... The last line lost the conversion from tid to comm. If you look at the events (perf script -D) you see why - a SAMPLE event is generated after the EXIT: 0 1379727589449774 0x1540b0 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(30482:30482):(30482:30482) 0 1379727589462497 0x1540e8 [0x80]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 1): 30482/30482: 0xffffffff816416f1 period: 1 addr: 0 ... thread: :30482:30482 When perf processes the EXIT event the thread is moved to the dead_threads list.

perf callchain: Support handling complete branch stacks as histograms Currently branch stacks can be only shown as edge histograms for individual branches. I never found this display particularly useful. This implements an alternative mode that creates histograms over complete branch traces, instead of individual branches, similar to how normal callgraphs are handled.

perf tools: Construct LBR call chain LBR call stack only has user-space callchains. It is output in the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK data format. For kernel callchains, it's still in the form of PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN. The perf tool has to handle both data sources to construct a complete callstack. For the "perf report -D" option, both lbr and fp information will be displayed. A new call chain recording option "lbr" is introduced into the perf tool for LBR call stack. The user can use --call-graph lbr to get the call stack information from hardware. Here are some examples.

perf report: Add --max-stack option to limit callchain stack scan When callgraph data was included in the perf data file, it may take a long time to scan all those data and merge them together especially if the stored callchains are long and the perf data file itself is large, like a Gbyte or so. The callchain stack is currently limited to PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH (127). This is a large value. Usually the callgraph data that developers are most interested in are the first few levels, the rests are usually not looked at. This patch adds a new --max-stack option to perf-report to limit the depth of callchain stack data to look at to reduce the time it takes for perf-report to finish its processing. It trades the presence of trailing stack information with faster speed. The following table shows the elapsed time of doing perf-report on a perf.data file of size 985,531,828 bytes. --max_stack Elapsed Time Output data size ----------- ------------ ---------------- not set 88.0s 124,422,651 64 87.5s 116,303,213 32 87.2s 112,023,804 16 86.6s 94,326,380 8 59.9s 33,697,248 4 40.7s 10,116,637 -g none 27.1s 2,555,810 Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hp.com> Acked-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Aswin Chandramouleeswaran <aswin@hp.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Scott J Norton <scott.norton@hp.com> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1382107129-2010-4-git-send-email-Waiman.Long@hp.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

perf callchain: Support handling complete branch stacks as histograms Currently branch stacks can be only shown as edge histograms for individual branches. I never found this display particularly useful. This implements an alternative mode that creates histograms over complete branch traces, instead of individual branches, similar to how normal callgraphs are handled. This is done by putting it in front of the normal callgraph and then using the normal callgraph histogram infrastructure to unify them. This way in complex functions we can understand the control flow that lead to a particular sample, and may even see some control flow in the caller for short functions. Example (simplified, of course for such simple code this is usually not needed), please run this after the whole patchkit is in, as at this point in the patch order there is no --branch-history, that will be added in a patch after this one: tcall.c: volatile a = 10000, b = 100000, c; __attribute__((noinline)) f2() { c = a / b; } __attribute__((noinline)) f1() { f2(); f2(); } main() { int i; for (i = 0; i < 1000000; i++) f1(); } % perf record -b -g ./tsrc/tcall [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.044 MB perf.data (~1923 samples) ] % perf report --no-children --branch-history ... 54.91% tcall.c:6 [.] f2 tcall | |--65.53%-- f2 tcall.c:5 | | | |--70.83%-- f1 tcall.c:11 | | f1 tcall.c:10 | | main tcall.c:18 | | main tcall.c:18 | | main tcall.c:17 | | main tcall.c:17 | | f1 tcall.c:13 | | f1 tcall.c:13 | | f2 tcall.c:7 | | f2 tcall.c:5 | | f1 tcall.c:12 | | f1 tcall.c:12 | | f2 tcall.c:7 | | f2 tcall.c:5 | | f1 tcall.c:11 | | | --29.17%-- f1 tcall.c:12 | f1 tcall.c:12 | f2 tcall.c:7 | f2 tcall.c:5 | f1 tcall.c:11 | f1 tcall.c:10 | main tcall.c:18 | main tcall.c:18 | main tcall.c:17 | main tcall.c:17 | f1 tcall.c:13 | f1 tcall.c:13 | f2 tcall.c:7 | f2 tcall.c:5 | f1 tcall.c:12 The default output is unchanged.

The rest of the history code is unchanged and doesn't know the difference between LBR entry and normal call entry. - detect overlaps with the callchain - remove small loop duplicates in the LBR Current limitations: - The LBR flags (mispredict etc.) are not shown in the history and LBR entries have no special marker. - It would be nice if annotate marked the LBR entries somehow (e.g. with arrows) v2: Various fixes. v3: Merge further patches into this one.

perf tools: Construct LBR call chain LBR call stack only has user-space callchains. It is output in the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK data format. For kernel callchains, it's still in the form of PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN. The perf tool has to handle both data sources to construct a complete callstack. For the "perf report -D" option, both lbr and fp information will be displayed. A new call chain recording option "lbr" is introduced into the perf tool for LBR call stack. The user can use --call-graph lbr to get the call stack information from hardware. Here are some examples. When profiling bc(1) on Fedora 19: echo 'scale=2000; 4*a(1)' > cmd; perf record --call-graph lbr bc -l < cmd If enabling LBR, perf report output looks like: 50.36% bc bc [.] bc_divide | --- bc_divide execute run_code yyparse main __libc_start_main _start 33.66% bc bc [.] _one_mult | --- _one_mult bc_divide execute run_code yyparse main __libc_start_main _start 7.62% bc bc [.] _bc_do_add | --- _bc_do_add | |--99.89%-- 0x2000186a8 --0.11%-- [...] 6.83% bc bc [.] _bc_do_sub | --- _bc_do_sub | |--99.94%-- bc_add | execute | run_code | yyparse | main | __libc_start_main | _start --0.06%-- [...] 0.46% bc libc-2.17.so [.] __memset_sse2 | --- __memset_sse2 | |--54.13%-- bc_new_num | | | |--51.00%-- bc_divide | | execute | | run_code | | yyparse | | main | | __libc_start_main | | _start | | | |--30.46%-- _bc_do_sub | | bc_add | | execute | | run_code | | yyparse | | main | | __libc_start_main | | _start | | | --18.55%-- _bc_do_add | bc_add | execute | run_code | yyparse | main | __libc_start_main | _start | --45.87%-- bc_divide execute run_code yyparse main __libc_start_main _start If using FP, perf report output looks like: echo 'scale=2000; 4*a(1)' > cmd; perf record --call-graph fp bc -l < cmd 50.49% bc bc [.] bc_divide | --- bc_divide 33.57% bc bc [.] _one_mult | --- _one_mult 7.61% bc bc [.] _bc_do_add | --- _bc_do_add 0x2000186a8 6.88% bc bc [.] _bc_do_sub | --- _bc_do_sub 0.42% bc libc-2.17.so [.] __memcpy_ssse3_back | --- __memcpy_ssse3_back If using LBR, perf report -D output looks like: 3458145275743 0x2fd750 [0xd8]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x2): 9748/9748: 0x408ea8 period: 609644 addr: 0 ...

perf callchain: Support handling complete branch stacks as histograms Currently branch stacks can be only shown as edge histograms for individual branches. I never found this display particularly useful. This implements an alternative mode that creates histograms over complete branch traces, instead of individual branches, similar to how normal callgraphs are handled. This is done by putting it in front of the normal callgraph and then using the normal callgraph histogram infrastructure to unify them. This way in complex functions we can understand the control flow that lead to a particular sample, and may even see some control flow in the caller for short functions. Example (simplified, of course for such simple code this is usually not needed), please run this after the whole patchkit is in, as at this point in the patch order there is no --branch-history, that will be added in a patch after this one: tcall.c: volatile a = 10000, b = 100000, c; __attribute__((noinline)) f2() { c = a / b; } __attribute__((noinline)) f1() { f2(); f2(); } main() { int i; for (i = 0; i < 1000000; i++) f1(); } % perf record -b -g ./tsrc/tcall [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.044 MB perf.data (~1923 samples) ] % perf report --no-children --branch-history ... 54.91% tcall.c:6 [.] f2 tcall | |--65.53%-- f2 tcall.c:5 | | | |--70.83%-- f1 tcall.c:11 | | f1 tcall.c:10 | | main tcall.c:18 | | main tcall.c:18 | | main tcall.c:17 | | main tcall.c:17 | | f1 tcall.c:13 | | f1 tcall.c:13 | | f2 tcall.c:7 | | f2 tcall.c:5 | | f1 tcall.c:12 | | f1 tcall.c:12 | | f2 tcall.c:7 | | f2 tcall.c:5 | | f1 tcall.c:11 | | | --29.17%-- f1 tcall.c:12 | f1 tcall.c:12 | f2 tcall.c:7 | f2 tcall.c:5 | f1 tcall.c:11 | f1 tcall.c:10 | main tcall.c:18 | main tcall.c:18 | main tcall.c:17 | main tcall.c:17 | f1 tcall.c:13 | f1 tcall.c:13 | f2 tcall.c:7 | f2 tcall.c:5 | f1 tcall.c:12 The default output is unchanged. This is only implemented in perf report, no change to record or anywhere else. This adds the basic code to report: - add a new "branch" option to the -g option parser to enable this mode - when the flag is set include the LBR into the callstack in machine.c. The rest of the history code is unchanged and doesn't know the difference between LBR entry and normal call entry. - detect overlaps with the callchain - remove small loop duplicates in the LBR Current limitations: - The LBR flags (mispredict etc.) are not shown in the history and LBR entries have no special marker. - It would be nice if annotate marked the LBR entries somehow (e.g. with arrows) v2: Various fixes. v3: Merge further patches into this one. Fix white space. v4: Improve manpage. Address review feedback. v5: Rename functions. Better error message without -g. Fix crash without -b. v6: Rebase v7: Rebase. Use NO_ENTRY in memset. v8: Port to latest tip. Move add_callchain_ip to separate patch. Skip initial entries in callchain. Minor cleanups.

perf tools: Construct LBR call chain LBR call stack only has user-space callchains. It is output in the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK data format. For kernel callchains, it's still in the form of PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN. The perf tool has to handle both data sources to construct a complete callstack. For the "perf report -D" option, both lbr and fp information will be displayed. A new call chain recording option "lbr" is introduced into the perf tool for LBR call stack. The user can use --call-graph lbr to get the call stack information from hardware. Here are some examples. When profiling bc(1) on Fedora 19: echo 'scale=2000; 4*a(1)' > cmd; perf record --call-graph lbr bc -l < cmd If enabling LBR, perf report output looks like: 50.36% bc bc [.] bc_divide | --- bc_divide execute run_code yyparse main __libc_start_main _start 33.66% bc bc [.] _one_mult | --- _one_mult bc_divide execute run_code yyparse main __libc_start_main _start 7.62% bc bc [.] _bc_do_add | --- _bc_do_add | |--99.89%-- 0x2000186a8 --0.11%-- [...] 6.83% bc bc [.] _bc_do_sub | --- _bc_do_sub | |--99.94%-- bc_add | execute | run_code | yyparse | main | __libc_start_main | _start --0.06%-- [...] 0.46% bc libc-2.17.so [.] __memset_sse2 | --- __memset_sse2 | |--54.13%-- bc_new_num | | | |--51.00%-- bc_divide | | execute | | run_code | | yyparse | | main | | __libc_start_main | | _start | | | |--30.46%-- _bc_do_sub | | bc_add | | execute | | run_code | | yyparse | | main | | __libc_start_main | | _start | | | --18.55%-- _bc_do_add | bc_add | execute | run_code | yyparse | main | __libc_start_main | _start | --45.87%-- bc_divide execute run_code yyparse main __libc_start_main _start If using FP, perf report output looks like: echo 'scale=2000; 4*a(1)' > cmd; perf record --call-graph fp bc -l < cmd 50.49% bc bc [.] bc_divide | --- bc_divide 33.57% bc bc [.] _one_mult | --- _one_mult 7.61% bc bc [.] _bc_do_add | --- _bc_do_add 0x2000186a8 6.88% bc bc [.] _bc_do_sub | --- _bc_do_sub 0.42% bc libc-2.17.so [.] __memcpy_ssse3_back | --- __memcpy_ssse3_back If using LBR, perf report -D output looks like: 3458145275743 0x2fd750 [0xd8]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x2): 9748/9748: 0x408ea8 period: 609644 addr: 0 ...
