perf core: Add perf_callchain_store_context() helper

2016-05-17T02:11:52+00:00

We need have different helpers to account how many contexts we have in
the sample and for real addresses, so do it now as a prep patch, to
ease review.

perf core: Add a 'nr' field to perf_event_callchain_context

2016-05-17T02:11:51+00:00

We will use it to count how many addresses are in the entry->ip[] array,
excluding PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER,etc} entries, so that we can really
return the number of entries specified by the user via the relevant
sysctl, kernel.perf_event_max_contexts, or via the per event
perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack knob.

This way we keep the perf_sample->ip_callchain->nr meaning, that is the
number of entries, be it real addresses or PERF_CONTEXT_ entries, while
honouring the max_stack knobs, i.e. the end result will be max_stack
entries if we have at least that many entries in a given stack trace.

perf core: Pass max stack as a perf_callchain_entry context

2016-05-17T02:11:50+00:00

This makes perf_callchain_{user,kernel}() receive the max stack
as context for the perf_callchain_entry, instead of accessing
the global sysctl_perf_event_max_stack.

powerpc/mm: Use pte_user() instead of open coding

2016-05-01T08:32:25+00:00

We have a common declaration in pte-common.h Add a book3s specific one
and switch to pte_user() in callchain.c. In a subsequent patch we will
switch _PAGE_USER to _PAGE_PRIVILEGED in the book3s version only.

perf core: Allow setting up max frame stack depth via sysctl

2016-04-27T13:20:39+00:00

The default remains 127, which is good for most cases, and not even hit
most of the time, but then for some cases, as reported by Brendan, 1024+
deep frames are appearing on the radar for things like groovy, ruby.

And in some workloads putting a _lower_ cap on this may make sense. One
that is per event still needs to be put in place tho.

The new file is:

  # cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
  127

Chaging it:

  # echo 256 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
  # cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
  256

But as soon as there is some event using callchains we get:

  # echo 512 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
  -bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
  #

Because we only allocate the callchain percpu data structures when there
is a user, which allows for changing the max easily, its just a matter
of having no callchain users at that point.

powerpc/perf: Add support for sampling interrupt register state

2016-04-21T13:32:59+00:00

The perf infrastructure uses a bit mask to find out valid registers to
display. Define a register mask for supported registers defined in
uapi/asm/perf_regs.h. The bit positions also correspond to register IDs
which is used by perf infrastructure to fetch the register values.
CONFIG_HAVE_PERF_REGS enables sampling of the interrupted machine state.
