perf stat: Fix no metric header if --per-socket and --metric-only set

2020-04-14T11:49:26+00:00

We received a report that was no metric header displayed if --per-socket
and --metric-only were both set.

It's hard for script to parse the perf-stat output. This patch fixes this
issue.

Before:

  root@kbl-ppc:~# perf stat -a -M CPI --metric-only --per-socket
  ^C
   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

perf python: Check if clang supports -fno-semantic-interposition

2020-04-14T11:43:18+00:00

The set of C compiler options used by distros to build python bindings
may include options that are unknown to clang, we check for a variety of
such options, add -fno-semantic-interposition to that mix:

This fixes the build on, among others, Manjaro Linux:

    GEN      /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so
  clang-9: error: unknown argument: '-fno-semantic-interposition'

perf python: Fix clang detection to strip out options passed in $CC

2020-04-03T13:04:59+00:00

The clang check in the python setup.py file expected $CC to be just the
name of the compiler, not the compiler + options, i.e. all options were
expected to be passed in $CFLAGS, this ends up making it fail in systems
where CC is set to, e.g.:

 "aarch64-linaro-linux-gcc --sysroot=/oe/build/tmp/work/juno-linaro-linux/perf/1.0-r9/recipe-sysroot"

Like this:

  $ python3
  >>> from subprocess import Popen
  >>> a = Popen(["aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc --sysroot=/oe/build/tmp/work/juno-linaro-linux/perf/1.0-r9/recipe-sysroot", "-v"])
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "", line 1, in 
    File "/usr/lib/python3.6/subprocess.py", line 729, in __init__
      restore_signals, start_new_session)
    File "/usr/lib/python3.6/subprocess.py", line 1364, in _execute_child
      raise child_exception_type(errno_num, err_msg, err_filename)

  >>>

Make it more robust, covering this case, by passing cc.split()[0] as the
first arg to popen().

perf script report: Fix SEGFAULT when using DWARF mode

2020-04-03T12:39:53+00:00

When running perf script report with a Python script and a callgraph in
DWARF mode, intr_regs->regs can be 0 and therefore crashing the regs_map
function.

Added a check for this condition (same check as in builtin-script.c:595).

perf events parser: Add missing Intel CPU events to parser

2020-04-03T12:37:56+00:00

perf list expects CPU events to be parseable by name, e.g.

    # perf list | grep el-capacity-read
      el-capacity-read OR cpu/el-capacity-read/          [Kernel PMU event]

But the event parser does not recognize them that way, e.g.

    # perf test -v "Parse event"
    
    running test 54 'cycles//u'
    running test 55 'cycles:k'
    running test 0 'cpu/config=10,config1,config2=3,period=1000/u'
    running test 1 'cpu/config=1,name=krava/u,cpu/config=2/u'
    running test 2 'cpu/config=1,call-graph=fp,time,period=100000/,cpu/config=2,call-graph=no,time=0,period=2000/'
    running test 3 'cpu/name='COMPLEX_CYCLES_NAME:orig=cycles,desc=chip-clock-ticks',period=0x1,event=0x2/ukp'
    -> cpu/event=0,umask=0x11/
    -> cpu/event=0,umask=0x13/
    -> cpu/event=0x54,umask=0x1/
    failed to parse event 'el-capacity-read:u,cpu/event=el-capacity-read/u', err 1, str 'parser error'
    event syntax error: 'el-capacity-read:u,cpu/event=el-capacity-read/u'
                           \___ parser error test child finished with 1
    ---- end ----
    Parse event definition strings: FAILED!

This happens because the parser splits names by '-' in order to deal
with cache events. For example 'L1-dcache' is a token in
parse-events.l which is matched to 'L1-dcache-load-miss' by the
following rule:

    PE_NAME_CACHE_TYPE '-' PE_NAME_CACHE_OP_RESULT '-' PE_NAME_CACHE_OP_RESULT opt_event_config

And so there is special handling for 2-part PMU names i.e.

    PE_PMU_EVENT_PRE '-' PE_PMU_EVENT_SUF sep_dc

but no handling for 3-part names, which are instead added as tokens e.g.

    topdown-[a-z-]+

While it would be possible to add a rule for 3-part names, that would
not work if the first parts were also a valid PMU name e.g.
'el-capacity-read' would be matched to 'el-capacity' before the parser
reached the 3rd part.

The parser would need significant change to rationalize all this, so
instead fix for now by adding missing Intel CPU events with 3-part names
to the event parser as tokens.

Missing events were found by using:

    grep -r EVENT_ATTR_STR arch/x86/events/intel/core.c

perf script: Allow --symbol to accept hexadecimal addresses

2020-04-03T12:37:56+00:00

This patch extends the perf script --symbols option to filter on
hexadecimal addresses in addition to symbol names. This makes it easier
to handle cases where symbols are aliased.

With this patch, it is possible to mix and match symbols and hexadecimal
addresses using the --symbols option.

perf record: Add --all-cgroups option

2020-04-03T12:37:55+00:00

The --all-cgroups option is to enable cgroup profiling support.  It
tells kernel to record CGROUP events in the ring buffer so that perf
report can identify task/cgroup association later.

perf record: Support synthesizing cgroup events

2020-04-03T12:37:55+00:00

Synthesize cgroup events by iterating cgroup filesystem directories.
The cgroup event only saves the portion of cgroup path after the mount
point and the cgroup id (which actually is a file handle).

perf report: Add 'cgroup' sort key

2020-04-03T12:37:55+00:00

The cgroup sort key is to show cgroup membership of each task.
Currently it shows full path in the cgroupfs (not relative to the root
of cgroup namespace) since it'd be more intuitive IMHO.  Otherwise root
cgroup in different namespaces will all show same name - "/".

The cgroup sort key should come before cgroup_id otherwise
sort_dimension__add() will match it to cgroup_id as it only matches with
the given substring.

For example it will look like following.  Note that record patch adding
--all-cgroups patch will come later.

  $ perf record -a --namespace --all-cgroups  cgtest
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.208 MB perf.data (4090 samples) ]
