2019-01-08perf top: Lift restriction on using callchains without "sym" in --sortArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
This restriction is not present in 'perf report' and since 'perf top' uses the same hists browser, remove it from it as well. With this we create per event buckets with callchain trees, so that # perf top --sort dso -g --no-children Bucketizes samples by DSO and below it shows the callchains leading to functions in this DSO. Try also: # perf top -e sched:*switch -g --no-children To see the callchains leading to sched switches, pressing 'E' to expand all one can quickly see the most common scheduler switches and what leads to them, for instance, calls to IO, futexes, etc. Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190107140854.GA28965@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Use conditional variable logic to synchronize between the reading and processing threads. Currently it's done by having mutex around rotation code. Using a POSIX cond variable to sync both threads after queues rotation: Process thread: - Detects data - Switches queues - Sets rotate variable - Waits in pthread_cond_wait() Read thread: - Detects rotate is set - Kicks the process thread with a pthread_cond_signal() After this rotation is safely completed and both threads can continue with the new queue.

2018-12-17perf top: Add processing threadJiri Olsa
Add a new thread that takes care of the hist creating to alleviate the main reader thread so it can keep perf mmaps served in time so that we reduce the possibility of losing events. The 'perf top' command now spawns 2 extra threads, the data processing is the following: 1) The main thread reads the data from mmaps and queues them to ordered events object; 2) The processing threads takes the data from the ordered events object and create initial histogram; 3) The GUI thread periodically sorts the initial histogram and presents it. Passing the data between threads 1 and 2 is done by having 2 ordered events queues. One is always being stored by thread 1 while the other is flushed out in thread 2. Passing the data between threads 2 and 3 stays the same as was initially for threads 1 and 3. Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Acked-by: David S.

The default timeout of 500ms for parsing /proc/<pid>/maps files is too short for profiling many of our services.

2018-11-05perf top: Display the LBR stats in callchain entryJin Yao
'perf report' has supported the displaying of LBR stats (such as cycles, predicted%) in callchain entry. For example: $ perf report --branch-history --stdio --1.01%--intel_idle mwait.h:29 intel_idle cpufeature.h:164 (cycles:5) intel_idle cpufeature.h:164 (predicted:76.4%) intel_idle mwait.h:102 (cycles:41) intel_idle current.h:15 While 'perf top' doesn't support that. For example: $ perf top -a -b --call-graph branch - 13.86% 0.23% [kernel] [k] __x86_indirect_thunk_rax - 13.65% __x86_indirect_thunk_rax + 1.69% do_syscall_64 + 1.68% do_select + 1.41% ktime_get + 0.70% __schedule + 0.62% do_sys_poll 0.58% __x86_indirect_thunk_rax Actually it's very easy to enable this feature in 'perf top'. With this patch, the result is: $ perf top -a -b --call-graph branch $ - 13.58% 0.00% [kernel] [k] __x86_indirect_thunk_rax $ - 13.57% __x86_indirect_thunk_rax (predicted:93.9%) $ + 1.78% do_select (cycles:2) $ + 1.68% perf_pmu_disable.part.99 (cycles:1) $ + 1.45% ___sys_recvmsg (cycles:25) $ + 0.81% unix_stream_sendmsg (cycles:18) $ + 0.80% ktime_get (cycles:400) $ 0.58% pick_next_task_fair (cycles:47) $ + 0.56% i915_request_retire (cycles:2) $ + 0.52% do_sys_poll (cycles:4) Signed-off-by: Jin Yao <yao.jin@linux.intel.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1540983995-20462-1-git-send-email-yao.jin@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2018-10-31perf top: Start display thread earlierDavid Miller
If events are coming in at a rate such that the event processing thread can barely keep up, our initial run of the event ring will almost never terminate and this delays the starting of the display thread. The screen basically stays black until the event thread can get out of it's endless loop. Therefore, start the display thread before we start processing the ring buffer. This also make sure that we always have the user requested real time setting engaged when processing the ring. Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-10-31perf top: Do not use overwrite mode by defaultArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Enabling --overwrite mode allows us to to use just the most recent records, which helps in high core count machines such as Knights Landing/Mill, but right now is being disabled by default as the pausing used in this technique is leading to loss of metadata events such as PERF_RECORD_MMAP which makes 'perf top' unable to resolve samples, leading to lots of unknown samples appearing on the UI. Enabling this may be useful if you are in such machines and profiling a workload that doesn't creates short lived threads and/or doesn't uses many executable mmap operations. Work is being planed to solve this situation, till then, this will remain disabled by default.

2018-10-30perf top: Allow disabling the overwrite modeArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
In ebebbf082357 ("perf top: Switch default mode to overwrite mode") we forgot to leave a way to disable that new default, add a --overwrite option that can be disabled using --no-overwrite, since the code already in such a way that we can readily disable this mode. This is useful when investigating bugs with this mode like the recent report from David Miller where lots of unknown symbols appear due to disabling the events while processing them which disables all record types, not just PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE, which makes it impossible to resolve maps when we lose PERF_RECORD_MMAP records. This can be easily seen while building a kernel, when there are lots of short lived processes.

Fix it by calling perf_default_config() when the top.call-graph variable is set.

2018-02-15perf top: Switch default mode to overwrite modeKan Liang
perf_top__mmap_read() has a severe performance issue in the Knights Landing/Mill platform, when monitoring heavy load systems. It costs several minutes to finish, which is unacceptable. Currently, 'perf top' uses the non overwrite mode. For non overwrite mode, it tries to read everything in the ringbuffer and doesn't pause it. Once there are lots of samples delivered persistently, the processing time could be very long. Also, the latest samples could be lost when the ringbuffer is full. For overwrite mode, it takes a snapshot for the system by pausing the ringbuffer, which could significantly reduce the processing time. Also, the overwrite mode always keep the latest samples. Considering the real time requirement for 'perf top', the overwrite mode is more suitable for it. Actually, 'perf top' was overwrite mode. It is changed to non overwrite mode since commit 93fc64f14472 ("perf top: Switch to non overwrite mode"). It's better to change it back to overwrite mode by default. For the kernel which doesn't support overwrite mode, it will fall back to non overwrite mode. There would be some records lost in overwrite mode because of pausing the ringbuffer. It has little impact for the accuracy of the snapshot and can be tolerated. For overwrite mode, unconditionally wait 100 ms before each snapshot. It also reduces the overhead caused by pausing ringbuffer, especially on light load system.

Per-event overwrite term is not forbidden in 'perf top', which can bring problems. Because 'perf top' only support non-overwrite mode now. Add new rules and check regarding to overwrite term for 'perf top'. - All events either have same per-event term or don't have per-event mode setting. Otherwise, it will error out. - Per-event overwrite term should be consistent as opts->overwrite. If not, updating the opts->overwrite according to per-event term. Make it possible to support either non-overwrite or overwrite mode. The overwrite mode is forbidden now, which will be removed when the overwrite mode is supported later.
