Jiri Olsa 53d0a57343 perf tools: Add feature check for libbabeltrace
Adding feature check for babeltrace library [1], which will be used for
perf data file CTF [2] conversion in following patches.

The babeltrace library is now automatically detected as standard
feature. It's possible to specify LIBBABELTRACE_DIR make variable to
specify location of installed libbabeltrace, like:

  $ make LIBBABELTRACE_DIR=/opt/libbabeltrace/
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j4' parallel build

  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                         dwarf: [ on  ]
  ...                         glibc: [ on  ]
  ...                          gtk2: [ on  ]
  ...                      libaudit: [ on  ]
  ...                        libbfd: [ on  ]
  ...                        libelf: [ on  ]
  ...                       libnuma: [ on  ]
  ...                       libperl: [ on  ]
  ...                     libpython: [ on  ]
  ...                      libslang: [ on  ]
  ...                     libunwind: [ on  ]
  ...                 libbabeltrace: [ on  ]
  ...            libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ on  ]
  ...                          zlib: [ on  ]
  ...     DWARF post unwind library: libunwind

NOTE The installation of the [1] to to used by above make:
     $ git clone git://git.efficios.com/babeltrace.git
     $ cd babeltrace
     $ vim README
     $ ./bootstrap
     $ ./configure --prefix=/opt/libbabeltrace
     $ make prefix=/opt/libbabeltrace
     $ sudo make install prefix=/opt/libbabeltrace

Please make sure that the /opt/libbabeltrace/lib directory is in your
LD_LIBRARY_PATH:

 $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/libbabeltrace/lib

Andi Kleen 85c273d2b6 perf record: Support recording running/enabled time
Add an option to perf record to record running/enabled time for read
events, similar to what stat does.

This is useful to understand multiplexing problems.

Right now the report support is not great, but at least report -D
already supports it.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo f078c3852c perf trace: Introduce --filter-pids
When tracing in X we get event loops due to the tracing activity, i.e.
updates to a gnome-terminal that generate syscalls for X.org, etc.

To get a more useful view of what is happening, syscall wise, system
wide, we need to filter those, like in:

 # ps ax|egrep '981|2296|1519' | grep -v egrep
   981 tty1 Ss+ 5:40 /usr/bin/Xorg :0 -background none ...
  1519 ?    Sl  2:22 /usr/bin/gnome-shell
  2296 ?    Sl  4:16 /usr/libexec/gnome-terminal-server
 #

 # trace -e write --filter-pids 981,2296,1519
    0.385 ( 0.021 ms): goa-daemon/2061 write(fd: 1</dev/null>, buf: 0x7fbeb017b000, count: 136) = 136
    0.922 ( 0.014 ms): goa-daemon/2061 write(fd: 1</dev/null>, buf: 0x7fbeb017b000, count: 140) = 140
 5006.525 ( 0.029 ms): goa-daemon/2061 write(fd: 1</dev/null>, buf: 0x7fbeb017b000, count: 136) = 136
 5007.235 ( 0.023 ms): goa-daemon/2061 write(fd: 1</dev/null>, buf: 0x7fbeb017b000, count: 140) = 140
 5177.646 ( 0.018 ms): rtkit-daemon/782 write(fd: 5<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, buf: 0x7f7eea70be88, count: 8) = 8
 8314.497 ( 0.004 ms): gsd-locate-poi/2084 write(fd: 5<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, buf: 0x7fffe96af7b0, count: 8) = 8

 ^C#

When this option is used the tracer pid is also filtered.

Ingo Molnar 8a26ce4e54 Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core
Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

User visible changes:

  - No need to explicitely enable evsels for workload started from perf, let it
    be enabled via perf_event_attr.enable_on_exec, removing some events that take
    place in the 'perf trace' before a workload is really started by it.
    (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  - Fix to handle optimized not-inlined functions in 'perf probe' (Masami Hiramatsu)

  - Update 'perf probe' man page (Masami Hiramatsu)

  - 'perf trace': Allow mixing with tracepoints and suppressing plain syscalls
    (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Infrastructure changes:

  - Introduce {trace_seq_do,event_format_}_fprintf functions to allow
    a default tracepoint field list printer to be used in tools that allows
    redirecting output to a file. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  - The man page for pthread_attr_set_affinity_np states that _GNU_SOURCE
    must be defined before pthread.h, do it to fix the build in some
    systems (Josh Boyer)

  - Cleanups in 'perf buildid-cache' (Masami Hiramatsu)

  - Fix dso cache test case (Namhyung Kim)

  - Do Not rely on dso__data_read_offset() to open DSO (Namhyung Kim)

  - Make perf aware of tracefs (Steven Rostedt).

  - Fix build by defining STT_GNU_IFUNC for glibc 2.9 and older (Vinson Lee)

  - AArch64 symbol resolution fixes (Victor Kamensky)

  - Kconfig beachhead (Jiri Olsa)

  - Simplify nr_pages validity (Kaixu Xia)

  - Fixup header positioning in 'perf list' (Yunlong Song)

Kan Liang 384b60557b 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:

If using LBR, perf report -D output looks like:

3458145275743 0x2fd750 [0xd8]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x2): 9748/9748: 0x408ea8 period: 609644 addr: 0

The LBR call stack has the following known limitations:

 - Zero length calls are not filtered out by the hardware

 - Exception handing such as setjmp/longjmp will have calls/returns not
   match

 - Pushing different return address onto the stack will have
   calls/returns not match

 - If callstack is deeper than the LBR, only the last entries are
   captured

Kan Liang aad2b21c15 perf tools: Enable LBR call stack support
Currently, there are two call chain recording options, fp and dwarf.

Haswell has a new feature that utilizes the existing LBR facility to
record call chains. Kernel side LBR support code provides this as a
third option to record call chains. This patch enables the lbr call
stack support on the tooling side.

LBR call stack has some limitations:

 - It reuses current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and branch record
   can not be enabled at the same time.

 - It is only available for user-space callchains.

However, it also offers some advantages:

 - LBR call stack can work on user apps which don't have frame-pointers
   or dwarf debug info compiled. It is a good alternative when nothing
   else works.

 #

Next steps, probably in this order:

1) Use ordered_events code, the logic in trace needs the events to be
   time ordered when needed, i.e. when multiple CPUs are involved.

2) Callchains!

3) Automatically account for interruptions when saying how long things
   took.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 42052bea16 perf trace: Print thread info when following children
The default for 'trace workload' is to set perf_event_attr.inherit to 1,
i.e. to make it equivalent to 'strace -f workload', so we were ending
with syscalls for multiple processes mixed up, fix it:

Before:

  [root@ssdandy ~]# trace -e brk time usleep 1
     0.071 ( 0.002 ms): brk(              ) = 0x100e000
     0.802 ( 0.001 ms): brk(              ) = 0x1d99000
     1.132 ( 0.003 ms): brk(              ) = 0x1d99000
     1.136 ( 0.003 ms): brk(brk: 0x1dba000) = 0x1dba000
     1.140 ( 0.001 ms): brk(              ) = 0x1dba000
  0.00user 0.00system 0:00.00elapsed 63%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 528maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+181minor)pagefaults 0swaps
  [root@ssdandy ~]#

After:

  [root@ssdandy ~]# trace -f -e brk time usleep 1
     0.072 ( 0.002 ms): time/26308 brk(               ) = 0x1e6e000
     0.860 ( 0.001 ms): usleep/26309 brk(             ) = 0xb91000
     1.193 ( 0.003 ms): usleep/26309 brk(             ) = 0xb91000
     1.197 ( 0.003 ms): usleep/26309 brk(brk: 0xbb2000) = 0xbb2000
     1.201 ( 0.001 ms): usleep/26309 brk(             ) = 0xbb2000
  0.00user 0.00system 0:00.00elapsed 0%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 524maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+180minor)pagefaults 0swaps
  [root@ssdandy ~]#

BTW: to achieve the 'strace workload' behaviour, i.e. without a explicit
'-f', one has to use --no-inherit.
