Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 0a7c74eae3 perf tools: Provide mutex wrappers for pthreads rwlocks
Andi reported a performance drop in single threaded perf tools such as
'perf script' due to the growing number of locks being put in place to
allow for multithreaded tools, so wrap the POSIX threads rwlock routines
with the names used for such kinds of locks in the Linux kernel and then
allow for tools to ask for those locks to be used or not.

I.e. a tool may have a multithreaded phase and then switch to single
threaded, like the upcoming patches for the synthesizing of
PERF_RECORD_{FORK,MMAP,etc} for pre-existing processes to then switch to
single threaded mode in 'perf top'.

The init routines will not be conditional, this way starting as single
threaded to then move to multi threaded mode should be possible.

Andi Kleen b18f3e3650 perf stat: Support JSON metrics in perf stat
Add generic support for standalone metrics specified in JSON files to
perf stat. A metric is a formula that uses multiple events to compute a
higher level result (e.g. IPC).

Previously metrics were always tied to an event and automatically
enabled with that event. But now change it that we can have standalone
metrics. They are in the same JSON data structure as events, but don't
have an event name.

We also allow to organize the metrics in metric groups, which allows a
short cut to select several related metrics at once.

Add a new -M / --metrics option to perf stat that adds the metrics or
metric groups specified.

Add the core code to manage and parse the metric groups. They are
collected from the JSON data structures into a separate rblist.  When
computing shadow values look for metrics in that list.  Then they are
computed using the existing saved values infrastructure in stat-shadow.c

The actual JSON metrics are in a separate pull request.

Jin Yao 992c7e9267 perf util: Create branch.c/.h for common branch functions
Create new util/branch.c and util/branch.h to contain the common branch
functions. Such as:

branch_type_count(): Count the numbers of branch types
branch_type_name() : Return the name of branch type
branch_type_stat_display(): Display branch type statistics info
branch_type_str(): Construct the branch type string.

The branch type is saved in branch_flags.

Change log:

v8: Change PERF_BR_NONE to PERF_BR_UNKNOWN.

v7: Since the common branch type name is changed (e.g. JCC->COND),
    this patch is performed the modification accordingly.

v6: Move that multiline conditional code inside {} brackets.
    Move branch_type_stat_display() from builtin-report.c to
      branch.c.
    Move branch_type_str() from callchain.c to branch.c.

v5: It's a new patch in v5 patch series.

Andi Kleen 075167363f perf tools: Add a simple expression parser for JSON
Add a simple expression parser good enough to parse JSON relation
expressions. The parser is implemented using bison.

This is just intended as an simple parser for internal usage in the
event lists, not the beginning of a "perf scripting language"

v2: Use expr__ prefix instead of expr_
    Support multiple free variables for parser

Committer note:

The v2 patch had:

  %define api.pure full

In expr.y, that is a feature introduced in bison 2.7, to have reentrant
parsers, not using global variables, which would make tools/perf stop
building with the bison version shipped in older distros, so Andi
realised that the other parsers (e.g. parse-events.y) were using:

  %pure-parser

Which is present in older versions of bison and fits the bill.

I added:

  CFLAGS_expr-bison.o += -DYYENABLE_NLS=0 -DYYLTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL=0 -w

To finally make it build, copying what was there for pmu-bison.o,
another parser.

Andi Kleen 48d02a1d5c perf script: Add 'brstackinsn' for branch stacks
Implement printing instruction sequences as hex dump for branch stacks.

This relies on the x86 instruction decoder used by the PT decoder to
find the lengths of instructions to dump them individually.

This is good enough for pattern matching.

This allows to study hot paths for individual samples, together with
branch misprediction and cycle count / IPC information if available (on
Skylake systems).

  % perf record -b ...
  % perf script -F brstackinsn
  ...
    read_hpet+67:
          ffffffff9905b843        insn: 74 ea                     # PRED
          ffffffff9905b82f        insn: 85 c9
          ffffffff9905b831        insn: 74 12
          ffffffff9905b833        insn: f3 90
          ffffffff9905b835        insn: 48 8b 0f
          ffffffff9905b838        insn: 48 89 ca
          ffffffff9905b83b        insn: 48 c1 ea 20
          ffffffff9905b83f        insn: 39 f2
          ffffffff9905b841        insn: 89 d0
          ffffffff9905b843        insn: 74 ea                     # PRED

Only works when no special branch filters are specified.

Occasionally the path does not reach up to the sample IP, as the LBRs
may be frozen before executing a final jump. In this case we print a
special message.

The instruction dumper piggy backs on the existing infrastructure from
the IP PT decoder.

An earlier iteration of this patch relied on a disassembler, but this
version only uses the existing instruction decoder.

Committer note:

Added hint about how to get suitable perf.data files for use with
'-F brstackinsm':

  $ perf record usleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.018 MB perf.data (8 samples) ]
  $
  $ perf script -F brstackinsn
  Display of branch stack assembler requested, but non all-branch filter set
  Hint: run 'perf record -b ...'

Hari Bathini f3b3614a28 perf tools: Add PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES to include namespaces related info
Introduce a new option to record PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES events emitted
by the kernel when fork, clone, setns or unshare are invoked. And update
perf-record documentation with the new option to record namespace
events.

Committer notes:

Combined it with a later patch to allow printing it via 'perf report -D'
and be able to test the feature introduced in this patch. Had to move
here also perf_ns__name(), that was introduced in another later patch.

Also used PRIu64 and PRIx64 to fix the build in some enfironments wrt:

  util/event.c:1129:39: error: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 6 has type 'long long unsigned int' [-Werror=format=]

The use_browser and perf_version_string variables are both declared in

Therefore a user linking an own main() with libperf.a must declare those

This patch fixes this issue by moving use_browser and

Wang Nan 00b86691c7 perf clang: Add builtin clang support ant test case
Add basic clang support in clang.cpp and test__clang() testcase. The
first testcase checks if builtin clang is able to generate LLVM IR.

tests/clang.c is a proxy. Real testcase resides in
utils/c++/clang-test.cpp in c++ and exports C interface to perf test
subsystem.

Test result:

   $ perf test -v clang
   51: builtin clang support                               :
   51.1: Test builtin clang compile C source to IR              :

Committer note:

Make sure you've enabled CLANG and LLVM builtin support by setting
the LIBCLANGLLVM variable on the make command line, e.g.:

  make LIBCLANGLLVM=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin

Otherwise you'll get this when trying to do the 'perf test' call above:

  # perf test clang

can process the command line configuration elements found in
evsel::config_terms.

Peter Zijlstra 70fbe05745 perf annotate: Add branch stack / basic block
I wanted to know the hottest path through a function and figured the
branch-stack (LBR) information should be able to help out with that.

The below uses the branch-stack to create basic blocks and generate
statistics from them.

        from    to              branch_i
        * ----> *
                |
                | block
                v
                * ----> *
                from    to      branch_i+1

The blocks are broken down into non-overlapping ranges, while tracking
if the start of each range is an entry point and/or the end of a range
is a branch.

Each block iterates all ranges it covers (while splitting where required
to exactly match the block) and increments the 'coverage' count.

For the range including the branch we increment the taken counter, as
well as the pred counter if flags.predicted.

Using these number we can find if an instruction:

 - had coverage; given by:

        br->coverage / br->sym->max_coverage

   This metric ensures each symbol has a 100% spot, which reflects the
   observation that each symbol must have a most covered/hottest
   block.

 - is a branch target: br->is_target && br->start == add

 - for targets, how much of a branch's coverages comes from it:

	target->entry / branch->coverage

 - is a branch: br->is_branch && br->end == addr

 - for branches, how often it was taken:

        br->taken / br->coverage

   after all, all execution that didn't take the branch would have
   incremented the coverage and continued onward to a later branch.

 - for branches, how often it was predicted:

        br->pred / br->taken

The coverage percentage is used to color the address and asm sections;
for low (<1%) coverage we use NORMAL (uncolored), indicating that these
instructions are not 'important'. For high coverage (>75%) we color the
address RED.

For each branch, we add an asm comment after the instruction with
information on how often it was taken and predicted.

Output looks like (sans color, which does loose a lot of the
information :/)

branch points due to interrupts/faults, they show up as very small -/+
annotations on 'weird' locations)

Masami Hiramatsu 293d5b4394 perf probe: Support probing on offline cross-arch binary
Support probing on offline cross-architecture binary by adding getting
the target machine arch from ELF and choose correct register string for
the machine.

Here is an example:
  -----
  $ perf probe --vmlinux=./vmlinux-arm --definition 'do_sys_open $params'
  p:probe/do_sys_open do_sys_open+0 dfd=%r5:s32 filename=%r1:u32 flags=%r6:s32 mode=%r3:u16
  -----

Here, we can get probe/do_sys_open from above and append it to to the target
machine's tracing/kprobe_events file in the tracefs mountput, usually
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events (or /sys/kernel/tracing/kprobe_events).

David Tolnay cae15db749 perf symbols: Add Rust demangling
Rust demangling is another step after bfd demangling. Add a diagnosis to
identify mangled Rust symbols based on the hash that the Rust mangler appends
as the last path component, as well as other characteristics.  Add a demangler
to reconstruct the original symbol.

Committer notes:

How I tested it:

Enabled COPR on Fedora 24 and then installed the 'rust-binary' package,
with it:

  $ cat src/main.rs
  fn main() {
      println!("Hello, world!");
  }
  $ cat Cargo.toml
  [package]

  name = "hello_world"
  version = "0.0.1"
  authors = [ "Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org>" ]

  $ perf record cargo bench
   Compiling hello_world v0.0.1 (file:///home/acme/projects/hello_world)
     Running target/release/hello_world-d4b9dab4b2a47d75

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo c8b5f2c96d tools: Introduce str_error_r()
The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that
returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else.

But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the
function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided
buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that
instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine
Linux, where musl libc is used.

So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU
interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that
users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is
returned.

Chris Phlipot 451db12617 perf tools: Refactor code to move call path handling out of thread-stack
Move the call path handling code out of thread-stack.c and
thread-stack.h to allow other components that are not part of
thread-stack to create call paths.

Summary:

- Create call-path.c and call-path.h and add them to the build.

- Move all call path related code out of thread-stack.c and thread-stack.h
  and into call-path.c and call-path.h.

- A small subset of structures and functions are now visible through
  call-path.h, which is required for thread-stack.c to continue to
  compile.

This change is a prerequisite for subsequent patches in this change set
and by itself contains no user-visible changes.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 1b700c9975 perf tools: Build syscall table .c header from kernel's syscall_64.tbl
We used libaudit to map ids to syscall names and vice-versa, but that
imposes a delay in supporting new syscalls, having to wait for libaudit
to get those new syscalls on its tables.

To remove that delay, for x86_64 initially, grab a copy of
arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl and use it to generate those
tables.

Syscalls currently not available in audit-libs:

  # trace -e copy_file_range,membarrier,mlock2,pread64,pwrite64,timerfd_create,userfaultfd
  Error:	Invalid syscall copy_file_range, membarrier, mlock2, pread64, pwrite64, timerfd_create, userfaultfd
  Hint:	try 'perf list syscalls:sys_enter_*'
  Hint:	and: 'man syscalls'
  #

With this patch:

Because the jitdump code needs the DWARF related development packages to
be installed. So make it dependent on that so that the build can succeed
without jitdump support.

Stephane Eranian 598b7c6919 perf jit: add source line info support
This patch adds source line information support to perf for jitted code.

The source line info must be emitted by the runtime, such as JVMTI.

Perf injects extract the source line info from the jitdump file and adds
the corresponding .debug_lines section in the ELF image generated for
each jitted function.

The source line enables matching any address in the profile with a
source file and line number.

The improvement is visible in perf annotate with the source code
displayed alongside the assembly code.

The dwarf code leverages the support from OProfile which is also
released under GPLv2.  Copyright 2007 OProfile authors.

Stephane Eranian 9b07e27f88 perf inject: Add jitdump mmap injection support
This patch adds a --jit/-j option to perf inject.

This options injects MMAP records into the perf.data file to cover the
jitted code mmaps. It also emits ELF images for each function in the
jidump file.  Those images are created where the jitdump file is.  The
MMAP records point to that location as well.

Typical flow:

  $ perf record -k mono -- java -agentpath:libpjvmti.so java_class
  $ perf inject --jit -i perf.data -o perf.data.jitted
  $ perf report -i perf.data.jitted

Note that jitdump.h support is not limited to Java, it works with any
jitted environment modified to emit the jitdump file format, include
those where code can be jitted multiple times and moved around.

The jitdump.h format is adapted from the Oprofile project.

The genelf.c (ELF binary generation) depends on MD5 hash encoding for
the buildid. To enable this, libssl-dev must be installed. If not, then
genelf.c defaults to using urandom to generate the buildid, which is not
ideal.  The Makefile auto-detects the presence on libssl-dev.

This version mmaps the jitdump file to create a marker MMAP record in
the perf.data file. The marker is used to detect jitdump and cause perf
inject to inject the jitted mmaps and generate ELF images for jitted
functions.

In V8, the following fixes and changes were made among other things:

  -  the jidump header format include a new flags field to be used
     to carry information about the configuration of the runtime agent.
     Contributed by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>

  - Fix mmap pgoff: MMAP event pgoff must be the offset within the ELF file
    at which the code resides.
    Contributed by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>

  - Fix ELF virtual addresses: perf tools expect the ELF virtual addresses of dynamic
    objects to match the file offset.
    Contributed by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>

  - JIT MMAP injection does not obey finished_round semantics. JIT MMAP injection injects all
    MMAP events in one go, so it does not obey finished_round semantics, so drop the
    finished_round events from the output perf.data file.

Josh Poimboeuf 5feaac248a perf tools: Move help_unknown_cmd() to its own file
help_unknown_cmd() is quite perf-specific because it relies on some
perf_config*() functions.  Move it and its supporting functions out into
a separate file so that help.c can be moved to a library.

Josh Poimboeuf 1fe143c5f9 perf tools: Move term functions out of util.c
The term functions are needed by help.c which is going to be moved into
a separate library.  Move them out of util.c and into their own file.
