2009-09-19perf: Add a sample_event type to the event_unionArjan van de Ven
Add a sample_event type to the event_union so that raw samples can be processed easily.

2009-09-19perf: Allow perf utilities to have "callback" options without argumentsArjan van de Ven
timechart needs to add a "callback" type command line argument that does not take arguments. This patch adds the parse-options.h infrastructure to make this possible.

2009-09-19perf: Store trace event name/id pairs in perf.dataArjan van de Ven
The trace event name<->id mapping is dynamic for each kernel compile. In order for perf.data to be useable outside the actual system, we thus need to store a table of this mapping for later use. This patch adds this table to perf.data, and provides helper functions for lookup up fields from this table. To avoid mistakes, lookup-from-table is kept completely seprate from lookup-from-local-debugfs.

2009-09-19perf: Add a timestamp to fork eventsArjan van de Ven
perf timechart needs to know when a process forked, in order to be able to visualize properly when tasks start. This patch adds a time field to the event structure, and fills it in appropriately.

2009-09-18perf sched: Add --input=file option to builtin-sched.cMike Galbraith
perf sched record passes unparsed args on to perf record, so specifying an output file via perf sched record -o FILE (cmd) just works. Ergo, provide an option to specify input file as well.

2009-09-14perf tools: Fix processing of randomly serialized sched tracesFrederic Weisbecker
Currently it's possible to meet such too high latency results with 'perf sched latency'. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Task | Runtime ms | Switches | Average delay ms | Maximum delay ms | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- xfce4-panel | 0.222 ms | 2 | avg: 4718.345 ms | max: 9436.493 ms | scsi_eh_3 | 3.962 ms | 36 | avg: 55.957 ms | max: 1977.829 ms | The origin is on traces that are sometimes badly serialized across cpus. For example the raw traces that raised such results for xfce4-panel: (1) [init]-0 [000] 1494.663899990: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] (R) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120] (2) xfce4-panel-4569 [000] 1494.663928373: sched_switch: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] (S) ==> swapper:0 [140] (3) Xorg-4276 [001] 1494.663860125: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000] (4) Xorg-4276 [001] 1504.098252756: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000] (5) perf-5219 [000] 1504.100353302: sched_switch: task perf:5219 [120] (S) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120] The traces are processed in the order they arrive. Then in (2), xfce4-panel sleeps, it is first waken up in (3) and eventually scheduled in (5). The latency reported is then 1504 - 1495 = 9 secs, as reported by perf sched. But this is wrong, we are confident in the fact the traces are nicely serialized while we should actually more trust the timestamps. If we reorder by timestamps we get: (1) Xorg-4276 [001] 1494.663860125: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000] (2) [init]-0 [000] 1494.663899990: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] (R) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120] (3) xfce4-panel-4569 [000] 1494.663928373: sched_switch: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] (S) ==> swapper:0 [140] (4) Xorg-4276 [001] 1504.098252756: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000] (5) perf-5219 [000] 1504.100353302: sched_switch: task perf:5219 [120] (S) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120] Now the trace make more sense, xfce4-panel is sleeping. Then it is woken up in (1), scheduled in (2) It goes to sleep in (3), woken up in (4) and scheduled in (5). Now, latency captured between (1) and (2) is of 39 us. And between (4) and (5) it is 2.1 ms. Such pattern of bad serializing is the origin of the high latencies reported by perf sched. Basically, we need to check whether wake up time is higher than schedule out time. If it's not the case, we need to tag the current work atom as invalid. Beside that, we may need to work later on a better ordering of the traces given by the kernel.

2009-09-13perf sched: Add 'perf sched latency' and 'perf sched replay'Ingo Molnar
Separate the option parsing cleanly and add two variants: - 'perf sched latency' (can be abbreviated via 'perf sched lat') - 'perf sched replay' (can be abbreviated via 'perf sched rep') Also add a repeat count option to replay and add a separation set of options for replay. Do the sorting setup only in the latency sub-command. Display separate help screens for 'perf sched' and 'perf sched replay -h' - i.e. further separation of the sub-commands.

2009-09-13perf sched: Fix bad event alignmentFrederic Weisbecker
perf sched raises the following error when it meets a sched switch event: perf: builtin-sched.c:286: register_pid: Assertion `!(pid >= 65536)' failed. Abandon Currently in x86-64, the sched switch events have a hole in the middle of the structure: u16 common_type; u8 common_flags; u8 common_preempt_count; u32 common_pid; u32 common_tgid; char prev_comm[16]; u32 prev_pid; u32 prev_prio; <--- there u64 prev_state; char next_comm[16]; u32 next_pid; u32 next_prio; Gcc inserts a 4 bytes hole there for prev_state to be u64 aligned. And the events are exported to userspace with this hole. But in userspace, from perf sched, we fetch it using a structure that has a new field in the beginning: u32 size. This is because our trace is exported with its size as a field. But now that we have this new field, the hole in the middle disappears because it makes prev_state becoming well aligned. And since we are using a pointer to the raw trace using this struct, instead of reading prev_state, we are reading the hole. We could fix it by keeping the size seperate from the struct but actually there a lot of other potential problems: some fields may be saved as long in a 64 bits system and later read as long in a 32 bits system. Also this direct cast doesn't care about the endianness differences between the host traced machine and the machine in which we do the post processing. So instead of using such dangerous direct casts, fetch the values using the trace parsing API that already takes care of all these problems.

2009-09-04perf stat: Clean up statistics calculations a bit morePeter Zijlstra
Remove some, now useless, global storage. Don't calculate the stddev when not needed. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-09-04perf stat: More advanced variance computationPeter Zijlstra
Use the more advanced single pass variance algorithm outlined on the wikipedia page. This is numerically more stable for larger sample sets. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-09-04perf stat: Use stddev_mean in stead of stddevPeter Zijlstra
When we're computing the mean by sampling the distribution, then the std dev of the mean is related to the std dev of the sample set by: stddev_mean = std_dev / sqrt(N) Which is exactly what we want. This results in the error on the mean decreasing with increasing number of samples. Also fix the scaled == -1, aka not counted case.
