2016-04-28perf evsel: Handle ENOMEM for perf_event_max_stack + PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAINArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+8
When the kernel allows tweaking perf_event_max_stack and the event being setup has PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN in its perf_event_attr.sample_type, tell the user that tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack may solve the problem. Before: # echo 32000 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack # perf record -g usleep 1 Error: The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 12 (Cannot allocate memory) for event (cycles:ppp). /bin/dmesg may provide additional information.

2016-04-28powercap, perf/x86/intel/rapl: Add PSys supportSrinivas Pandruvada1-0/+69
Skylake processor supports a new set of RAPL registers for controlling entire SoC instead of just CPU package. This is useful for thermal and power control when source of power/thermal is not just CPU/GPU. This change adds a new platform domain (AKA PSys) to the current power capping Intel RAPL driver. PSys also supports PL1 (long term) and PL2 (short term) control like package domain. This also follows same MSRs for energy and time units as package domain. Unlike package domain, PSys support requires more than just processor level implementation. The other parts in the system need additional implementation, which OEMs needs to support. So not all Skylake systems will support PSys. Signed-off-by: Srinivas Pandruvada <srinivas.pandruvada@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Acked-by: Rafael J.

2016-04-28perf/x86/intel: Fix incorrect lbr_sel_mask valueKan Liang1-2/+4
This patch fixes a bug which was introduced by: b16a5b52eb90 ("perf/x86: Add option to disable reading branch flags/cycles") In this patch, lbr_sel_mask is used to mask the lbr_select. But LBR_SEL_MASK doesn't include the bit for LBR_CALL_STACK. So LBR call stack will never be set in lbr_select. This patch corrects the LBR_SEL_MASK by including all valid bits in LBR_SELECT. Also, the LBR_CALL_STACK bit is different as other bit in LBR_SELECT. It does not operate in suppress mode, so it needs to be specially handled in intel_pmu_setup_hw_lbr_filter.

2016-04-28perf/x86/intel/pt: Don't die on VMXONAlexander Shishkin4-11/+75
Some versions of Intel PT do not support tracing across VMXON, more specifically, VMXON will clear TraceEn control bit and any attempt to set it before VMXOFF will throw a #GP, which in the current state of things will crash the kernel. Namely: $ perf record -e intel_pt// kvm -nographic on such a machine will kill it. To avoid this, notify the intel_pt driver before VMXON and after VMXOFF so that it knows when not to enable itself.

2016-04-28perf/core: Fix perf_event_open() vs. execve() racePeter Zijlstra1-16/+36
Jann reported that the ptrace_may_access() check in find_lively_task_by_vpid() is racy against exec(). Specifically: perf_event_open() execve() ptrace_may_access() commit_creds() ... if (get_dumpable() != SUID_DUMP_USER) perf_event_exit_task(); perf_install_in_context() would result in installing a counter across the creds boundary. Fix this by wrapping lots of perf_event_open() in cred_guard_mutex. This should be fine as perf_event_exit_task() is already called with cred_guard_mutex held, so all perf locks already nest inside it.

2016-04-27perf core: Allow setting up max frame stack depth via sysctlArnaldo Carvalho de Melo13-23/+84
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.

Perf can add a probe on kernel module which has not been loaded yet. The current implementation finds the module name from path. But if the filename is different from the actual module name then perf fails to register a probe while loading module because of mismatch in the names.

And besides we should probably stop synthesizing those records and instead read thread information in a lazy way, i.e. just when we need, like done in this patch: Now the 'pid_t' argument in 'perf_event_open' gets translated to a COMM: # perf trace -e perf_event_open perf stat -e cycles -p 31601 0.027 ( 0.027 ms): perf/23393 perf_event_open(attr_uptr: 0x2fdd0d8, pid: 31601 (abrt-dump-journ), cpu: -1, group_fd: -1, flags: FD_CLOEXEC) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ = 3 ^C And in other syscalls containing pid_t without thread->comm_set at the time of the formatting.

For example: old head | | V V +---+------+----------+----+-----+--+ |..E|D....D|C........C|B..B|A....|E.| +---+------+----------+----+-----+--+ 'old' pointer points to the beginning of 'A' and trying read from it, but 'A' has been overwritten.

2016-04-25perf script: Fix segfault when printing callchainsChris Phlipot1-6/+6
This fixes a bug caused by an unitialized callchain cursor. The crash frist appeared in: 6f736735e30f ("perf evsel: Require that callchains be resolved before calling fprintf_{sym,callchain}") The callchain cursor is a struct that contains pointers, that when uninitialized will cause unpredictable behavior (usually a crash) when trying to append to the callchain. The existing implementation has the following issues: 1. The callchain cursor used is not initialized, resulting in unpredictable behavior when used. 2. The cursor is declared on the stack. Even if it is properly initalized, the implmentation will leak memory when the function returns, since all the references to the callchain_nodes allocated by callchain_cursor_append will be lost when the cursor goes out of scope. 3. Storing the cursor on the stack is inefficient. Even if memory is properly freed when it goes out of scope, a performance penalty will be incurred due to reallocation of callchain nodes. callchain_cursor_append is designed to avoid these reallocations when an existing cursor is reused. This patch fixes the crash by replacing cursor_callchain with a reference to the global callchain_cursor which also resolves all 3 issues mentioned above.

2016-04-23perf/x86/intel/rapl: Support Skylake RAPL domainsSrinivas Pandruvada2-2/+54
Add Skylake client support for RAPL domains. In addition to RAPL domains in Broadwell clients, it has support for platform domain (aka PSys). The PSys domain controls the entire SoC instead of just a CPU package. Unlike package domain, PSys support requires more than just processor level implementation. The other parts in the system need additional HW level signaling, which OEMs need to support. When not supported, the energy counter register in PSys domain returns 0. Also corrected error in comment for GPU counter, which previously was DRAM counter.

2016-04-23perf/core: Add ::write_backward attribute to perf eventWang Nan4-10/+85
This patch introduces 'write_backward' bit to perf_event_attr, which controls the direction of a ring buffer. After set, the corresponding ring buffer is written from end to beginning. This feature is design to support reading from overwritable ring buffer. Ring buffer can be created by mapping a perf event fd. Kernel puts event records into ring buffer, user tooling like perf fetch them from address returned by mmap(). To prevent racing between kernel and tooling, they communicate to each other through 'head' and 'tail' pointers. Kernel maintains 'head' pointer, points it to the next free area (tail of the last record). Tooling maintains 'tail' pointer, points it to the tail of last consumed record (record has already been fetched). Kernel determines the available space in a ring buffer using these two pointers to avoid overwrite unfetched records. By mapping without 'PROT_WRITE', an overwritable ring buffer is created. Different from normal ring buffer, tooling is unable to maintain 'tail' pointer because writing is forbidden. Therefore, for this type of ring buffers, kernel overwrite old records unconditionally, works like flight recorder. This feature would be useful if reading from overwritable ring buffer were as easy as reading from normal ring buffer. However, there's an obscure problem. The following figure demonstrates a full overwritable ring buffer. In this figure, the 'head' pointer points to the end of last record, and a long record 'E' is pending. For a normal ring buffer, a 'tail' pointer would have pointed to position (X), so kernel knows there's no more space in the ring buffer. However, for an overwritable ring buffer, kernel ignore the 'tail' pointer. (X) head . | . V +------+-------+----------+------+---+ |A....A|B.....B|C........C|D....D| | +------+-------+----------+------+---+ Record 'A' is overwritten by event 'E': head | V +--+---+-------+----------+------+---+ |.E|..A|B.....B|C........C|D....D|E..| +--+---+-------+----------+------+---+ Now tooling decides to read from this ring buffer. However, none of these two natural positions, 'head' and the start of this ring buffer, are pointing to the head of a record. Even the full ring buffer can be accessed by tooling, it is unable to find a position to start decoding. The first attempt tries to solve this problem AFAIK can be found from [1]. It makes kernel to maintain 'tail' pointer: updates it when ring buffer is half full. However, this approach introduces overhead to fast path. Test result shows a 1% overhead [2]. In addition, this method utilizes no more tham 50% records. Another attempt can be found from [3], which allows putting the size of an event at the end of each record. This approach allows tooling to find records in a backward manner from 'head' pointer by reading size of a record from its tail. However, because of alignment requirement, it needs 8 bytes to record the size of a record, which is a huge waste. Its performance is also not good, because more data need to be written. This approach also introduces some extra branch instructions to fast path. 'write_backward' is a better solution to this problem. Following figure demonstrates the state of the overwritable ring buffer when 'write_backward' is set before overwriting: head | V +---+------+----------+-------+------+ | |D....D|C........C|B.....B|A....A| +---+------+----------+-------+------+ and after overwriting: head | V +---+------+----------+-------+---+--+ |..E|D....D|C........C|B.....B|A..|E.| +---+------+----------+-------+---+--+ In each situation, 'head' points to the beginning of the newest record. From this record, tooling can iterate over the full ring buffer and fetch records one by one. The only limitation that needs to be considered is back-to-back reading. Due to the non-deterministic of user programs, it is impossible to ensure the ring buffer keeps stable during reading. Consider an extreme situation: tooling is scheduled out after reading record 'D', then a burst of events come, eat up the whole ring buffer (one or multiple rounds). When the tooling process comes back, reading after 'D' is incorrect now. To prevent this problem, we need to find a way to ensure the ring buffer is stable during reading. ioctl(PERF_EVENT_IOC_PAUSE_OUTPUT) is suggested because its overhead is lower than ioctl(PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE). By carefully verifying 'header' pointer, reader can avoid pausing the ring-buffer. For example: /* A union of all possible events */ union perf_event event; p = head = perf_mmap__read_head(); while (true) { /* copy header of next event */ fetch(&event.header, p, sizeof(event.header)); /* read 'head' pointer */ head = perf_mmap__read_head(); /* check overwritten: is the header good? */ if (!verify(sizeof(event.header), p, head)) break; /* copy the whole event */ fetch(&event, p, event.header.size); /* read 'head' pointer again */ head = perf_mmap__read_head(); /* is the whole event good? */ if (!verify(event.header.size, p, head)) break; p += event.header.size; } However, the overhead is high because: a) In-place decoding is not safe. Copying-verifying-decoding is required. b) Fetching 'head' pointer requires additional synchronization. (From Alexei Starovoitov: Even when this trick works, pause is needed for more than stability of reading. When we collect the events into overwrite buffer we're waiting for some other trigger (like all cpu utilization spike or just one cpu running and all others are idle) and when it happens the buffer has valuable info from the past. At this point new events are no longer interesting and buffer should be paused, events read and unpaused until next trigger comes.) This patch utilizes event's default overflow_handler introduced previously. perf_event_output_backward() is created as the default overflow handler for backward ring buffers. To avoid extra overhead to fast path, original perf_event_output() becomes __perf_event_output() and marked '__always_inline'. In theory, there's no extra overhead introduced to fast path. Performance testing: Calling 3000000 times of 'close(-1)', use gettimeofday() to check duration. Use 'perf record -o /dev/null -e raw_syscalls:*' to capture system calls. In ns.
