perf tools: Support 'srccode' output

2018-12-17T17:57:07+00:00

When looking at PT or brstackinsn traces with 'perf script' it can be
very useful to see the source code. This adds a simple facility to print
them with 'perf script', if the information is available through dwarf

  % perf record ...
  % perf script -F insn,ip,sym,srccode
  ...

            4004c6 main
  5               for (i = 0; i < 10000000; i++)
             4004cd main

             4004c6 main

Not supported for callchains currently, would need some layout changes
there.

Fixed the build on Alpine Linux (3.4 .. 3.8) by addressing this

As the namespace support code will use this, which is not available in

perf auxtrace: Support for perf report -D for s390

2018-08-03T13:34:18+00:00

Add initial support for s390 auxiliary traces using the CPU-Measurement
Sampling Facility.

Support and ignore PERF_REPORT_AUXTRACE_INFO records in the perf data
file. Later patches will show the contents of the auxiliary traces.

Setup the auxtrace queues and data structures for s390.  A raw dump of
the perf.data file now does not show an error when an auxtrace event is
encountered.

Output before:

  [root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf report -D -i perf.data.auxtrace

Additional notes about the underlying hardware and software
implementation, provided by Hendrik Brueckner (see Link: below).

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

The CPU-Measurement Facility (CPU-MF) provides a set of functions to obtain
performance information on the mainframe.  Basically, it was introduced
with System z10 years ago for the z/Architecture, that means, 64-bit.
For Linux, there are two facilities of interest, counter facility and sampling
facility.  The counter facility provides hardware counters for instructions,
cycles, crypto-activities, and many more.

The sampling facility is a hardware sampler that when started will write
samples at a particular interval into a sampling buffer.  At some point,
for example, if a sample block is full, it generates an interrupt to collect
samples (while the sampler continues to run).

Few years ago, I started to provide the a perf PMU to use the counter
and sampling facilities.  Recently, the device driver was updated to also
"export" the sampling buffer into the AUX area.  Thomas now completed the
related perf work to interpret and process these AUX data.

If people are more interested in the sampling facility, they can have a
look into:

  http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg26fcd1cc32246f4c8852574ce0044734a

and to learn how-to use it for Linux on Z, have look at chapter 54,
"Using the CPU-measurement facilities" in the:

- Device Drivers, Features, and Commands, SC33-8411-34

perf tools: Add mem2node object

2018-03-16T16:52:37+00:00

Adding mem2node object to allow the easy lookup of the node for the
physical address.

It has following interface:

  int  mem2node__init(struct mem2node *map, struct perf_env *env);
  void mem2node__exit(struct mem2node *map);
  int  mem2node__node(struct mem2node *map, u64 addr);

The mem2node__toolsinit initialize object from the perf data file
MEM_TOPOLOGY feature data. Following calls to mem2node__node will return
node number for given physical address. The mem2node__exit function
frees the object.

perf tools: Add decoder mechanic to support dumping trace data

2018-01-25T09:37:25+00:00

This patch adds the required interface to the openCSD library to support
dumping CoreSight trace packet using the "report --dump" command.  The
information conveyed is related to the type of packets gathered by a
trace session rather than full decoding.

perf trace: Remove audit-libs dependency if syscall tables are present

2018-01-23T12:51:38+00:00

Change the Makefile and build process to no longer require audit-libs
interfaces when the architecture provides system call tables.

Committer notes:

Its not enough to hook into the NO_LIBAUDIT makefile block, we need to
define a CONFIG_TRACE that gets selected by both architectures
generating the syscall tables from the kernel headers and from detecting
the availability of libaudit.

With that in place we will not link against libaudit even if the
necessary files are available for that, in fact we will not even try to
detect its availability, speeding up a bit the feature detection phase.
