perf tools: Fix sparse CPU numbering related bugs At present, the perf subcommands that do system-wide monitoring (perf stat, perf record and perf top) don't work properly unless the online cpus are numbered 0, 1, ..., N-1. These tools ask for the number of online cpus with sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN) and then try to create events for cpus 0, 1, ..., N-1. This creates problems for systems where the online cpus are numbered sparsely. For example, a POWER6 system in single-threaded mode (i.e. only running 1 hardware thread per core) will have only even-numbered cpus online. This fixes the problem by reading the /sys/devices/system/cpu/online file to find out which cpus are online. The code that does that is in tools/perf/util/cpumap.[ch], and consists of a read_cpu_map() function that sets up a cpumap[] array and returns the number of online cpus. If /sys/devices/system/cpu/online can't be read or can't be parsed successfully, it falls back to using sysconf to ask how many cpus are online and sets up an identity map in cpumap[]. The perf record, perf stat and perf top code then calls read_cpu_map() in the system-wide monitoring case (instead of sysconf) and uses cpumap[] to get the cpu numbers to pass to perf_event_open.

perf stat: Basic support for TopDown in perf stat Add basic plumbing for TopDown in perf stat TopDown is intended to replace the frontend cycles idle/ backend cycles idle metrics in standard perf stat output. These metrics are not reliable in many workloads, due to out of order effects. This implements a new --topdown mode in perf stat (similar to --transaction) that measures the pipe line bottlenecks using standardized formulas. The measurement can be all done with 5 counters (one fixed counter) The result are four metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, BadSpeculation, Retiring that describe the CPU pipeline behavior on a high level. The full top down methology has many hierarchical metrics. This implementation only supports level 1 which can be collected without multiplexing. A full implementation of top down on top of perf is available in pmu-tools toplev. (http://github.com/andikleen/pmu-tools) The current version works on Intel Core CPUs starting with Sandy Bridge, and Atom CPUs starting with Silvermont. In principle the generic metrics should be also implementable on other out of order CPUs. TopDown level 1 uses a set of abstracted metrics which are generic to out of order CPU cores (although some CPUs may not implement all of them): topdown-total-slots Available slots in the pipeline topdown-slots-issued Slots issued into the pipeline topdown-slots-retired Slots successfully retired topdown-fetch-bubbles Pipeline gaps in the frontend topdown-recovery-bubbles Pipeline gaps during recovery from misspeculation These metrics then allow to compute four useful metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, Retiring, BadSpeculation. Add a new --topdown options to enable events. When --topdown is specified set up events for all topdown events supported by the kernel. Add topdown-* as a special case to the event parser, as is needed for all events containing -.

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. % perf stat -M Summary --metric-only -a sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': Instructions CLKS CPU_Utilization GFLOPs SMT_2T_Utilization Kernel_Utilization 317614222.0 1392930775.0 0.0 0.0 0.2 0.1 1.001497549 seconds time elapsed % perf stat -M GFLOPs flops Performance counter stats for 'flops': 3,999,541,471 fp_comp_ops_exe.sse_scalar_single # 1.2 GFLOPs (66.65%) 14 fp_comp_ops_exe.sse_scalar_double (66.65%) 0 fp_comp_ops_exe.sse_packed_double (66.67%) 0 fp_comp_ops_exe.sse_packed_single (66.70%) 0 simd_fp_256.packed_double (66.70%) 0 simd_fp_256.packed_single (66.67%) 0 duration_time 3.238372845 seconds time elapsed v2: Add missing header file v3: Move find_map to pmu.c Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170831194036.30146-7-andi@firstfloor.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

perf stat: Basic support for TopDown in perf stat Add basic plumbing for TopDown in perf stat TopDown is intended to replace the frontend cycles idle/ backend cycles idle metrics in standard perf stat output. These metrics are not reliable in many workloads, due to out of order effects. This implements a new --topdown mode in perf stat (similar to --transaction) that measures the pipe line bottlenecks using standardized formulas. The measurement can be all done with 5 counters (one fixed counter) The result are four metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, BadSpeculation, Retiring that describe the CPU pipeline behavior on a high level. The full top down methology has many hierarchical metrics. This implementation only supports level 1 which can be collected without multiplexing. A full implementation of top down on top of perf is available in pmu-tools toplev. (http://github.com/andikleen/pmu-tools) The current version works on Intel Core CPUs starting with Sandy Bridge, and Atom CPUs starting with Silvermont. In principle the generic metrics should be also implementable on other out of order CPUs. TopDown level 1 uses a set of abstracted metrics which are generic to out of order CPU cores (although some CPUs may not implement all of them): topdown-total-slots Available slots in the pipeline topdown-slots-issued Slots issued into the pipeline topdown-slots-retired Slots successfully retired topdown-fetch-bubbles Pipeline gaps in the frontend topdown-recovery-bubbles Pipeline gaps during recovery from misspeculation These metrics then allow to compute four useful metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, Retiring, BadSpeculation. Add a new --topdown options to enable events. When --topdown is specified set up events for all topdown events supported by the kernel. Add topdown-* as a special case to the event parser, as is needed for all events containing -. The actual code to compute the metrics is in follow-on patches. v2: Use standard sysctl read function. v3: Move x86 specific code to arch/ v4: Enable --metric-only implicitly for topdown. v5: Add --single-thread option to not force per core mode v6: Fix output order of topdown metrics v7: Allow combining with -d v8: Remove --single-thread again v9: Rename functions, adding arch_ and topdown_. v10: Expand man page and describe TopDown better Paste intro into commit description.

perf stat: add perf stat -B to pretty print large numbers It is hard to read very large numbers so provide an option to perf stat to separate thousands using a separator. The patch leverages the locale support of stdio. You need to set your LC_NUMERIC appropriately, for instance LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF8. You need to pass -B to activate this feature. This way existing scripts parsing the output do not need to be changed.

perf stat: Basic support for TopDown in perf stat Add basic plumbing for TopDown in perf stat TopDown is intended to replace the frontend cycles idle/ backend cycles idle metrics in standard perf stat output. These metrics are not reliable in many workloads, due to out of order effects. This implements a new --topdown mode in perf stat (similar to --transaction) that measures the pipe line bottlenecks using standardized formulas. The measurement can be all done with 5 counters (one fixed counter) The result are four metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, BadSpeculation, Retiring that describe the CPU pipeline behavior on a high level. The full top down methology has many hierarchical metrics. This implementation only supports level 1 which can be collected without multiplexing. A full implementation of top down on top of perf is available in pmu-tools toplev. (http://github.com/andikleen/pmu-tools) The current version works on Intel Core CPUs starting with Sandy Bridge, and Atom CPUs starting with Silvermont. In principle the generic metrics should be also implementable on other out of order CPUs. TopDown level 1 uses a set of abstracted metrics which are generic to out of order CPU cores (although some CPUs may not implement all of them): topdown-total-slots Available slots in the pipeline topdown-slots-issued Slots issued into the pipeline topdown-slots-retired Slots successfully retired topdown-fetch-bubbles Pipeline gaps in the frontend topdown-recovery-bubbles Pipeline gaps during recovery from misspeculation These metrics then allow to compute four useful metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, Retiring, BadSpeculation. Add a new --topdown options to enable events. When --topdown is specified set up events for all topdown events supported by the kernel. Add topdown-* as a special case to the event parser, as is needed for all events containing -. The actual code to compute the metrics is in follow-on patches. v2: Use standard sysctl read function. v3: Move x86 specific code to arch/ v4: Enable --metric-only implicitly for topdown. v5: Add --single-thread option to not force per core mode v6: Fix output order of topdown metrics v7: Allow combining with -d v8: Remove --single-thread again v9: Rename functions, adding arch_ and topdown_. v10: Expand man page and describe TopDown better Paste intro into commit description.

perf stat: Add csv-style output This patch adds an option (-x/--field-separator) to print counts using a CSV-style output. The user can pass a custom separator. This makes it very easy to import counts directly into your favorite spreadsheet without having to write scripts. Example: $ perf stat --field-separator=, -a -- sleep 1 4009.961740,task-clock-msecs 13,context-switches 2,CPU-migrations 189,page-faults 9596385684,cycles 3493659441,instructions 872897069,branches 41562,branch-misses 22424,cache-references 1289,cache-misses Works also in non-aggregated mode: $ perf stat -x , -a -A -- sleep 1 CPU0,1002.526168,task-clock-msecs CPU1,1002.528365,task-clock-msecs CPU2,1002.523360,task-clock-msecs CPU3,1002.519878,task-clock-msecs CPU0,1,context-switches CPU1,5,context-switches CPU2,5,context-switches CPU3,6,context-switches CPU0,0,CPU-migrations CPU1,1,CPU-migrations CPU2,0,CPU-migrations CPU3,1,CPU-migrations CPU0,2,page-faults CPU1,6,page-faults CPU2,9,page-faults CPU3,174,page-faults CPU0,2399439771,cycles CPU1,2380369063,cycles CPU2,2399142710,cycles CPU3,2373161192,cycles CPU0,872900618,instructions CPU1,873030960,instructions CPU2,872714525,instructions CPU3,874460580,instructions CPU0,221556839,branches CPU1,218134342,branches CPU2,218161730,branches CPU3,218284093,branches CPU0,18556,branch-misses CPU1,1449,branch-misses CPU2,3447,branch-misses CPU3,12714,branch-misses CPU0,8330,cache-references CPU1,313844,cache-references CPU2,47993728,cache-references CPU3,826481,cache-references CPU0,272,cache-misses CPU1,5360,cache-misses CPU2,1342193,cache-misses CPU3,13992,cache-misses This second version adds the ability to name a separator and uses field-separator as the long option to be consistent with perf report. Commiter note: Since we enabled --big-num by default in 201e0b0 and -x can't be used with it, we need to notice if the user explicitely enabled or disabled -B, add code to disable big_num if the user didn't explicitely set --big_num when -x is used.

perf stat: Add support to print counts for fixed times Introduce a new option to print counts for fixed number of times and update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly. Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat. $ perf stat -I 1000 --interval-count 2 -e cycles -a # time counts unit events 1.002827089 93,884,870 cycles 2.004231506 56,573,446 cycles We can just print the counts for several times with this newly introduced option. The usage of it is a little like 'vmstat', and it should be used together with "-I" option. $ vmstat -n 1 2 procs ---------memory-------------- --swap- ----io-- -system-- ------cpu--- r b swpd free buff cache si so bi bo in cs us sy id wa st 0 0 0 78270544 547484 51732076 0 0 0 20 1 1 1 0 99 0 0 0 0 0 78270512 547484 51732080 0 0 0 16 477 1555 0 0 100 0 0 Changes since v3: - merge interval_count check and times check to one line. - fix the wrong indent in stat.h - use stat_config.times instead of 'times' in cmd_stat function. Changes since v2: - none. Changes since v1: - change the name of the new option "times-print" to "interval-count". - keep the new option interval specifically.

perf stat: add perf stat -B to pretty print large numbers It is hard to read very large numbers so provide an option to perf stat to separate thousands using a separator. The patch leverages the locale support of stdio. You need to set your LC_NUMERIC appropriately, for instance LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF8. You need to pass -B to activate this feature. This way existing scripts parsing the output do not need to be changed. Here is an example. $ perf stat noploop 2 noploop for 2 seconds Performance counter stats for 'noploop 2': 1998.347031 task-clock-msecs # 0.998 CPUs 61 context-switches # 0.000 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec 118 page-faults # 0.000 M/sec 4,138,410,900 cycles # 2070.917 M/sec (scaled from 70.01%) 2,062,650,268 instructions # 0.498 IPC (scaled from 70.01%) 2,057,653,466 branches # 1029.678 M/sec (scaled from 70.01%) 40,267 branch-misses # 0.002 % (scaled from 30.04%) 2,055,961,348 cache-references # 1028.831 M/sec (scaled from 30.03%) 53,725 cache-misses # 0.027 M/sec (scaled from 30.02%) 2.001393933 seconds time elapsed $ perf stat -B noploop 2 noploop for 2 seconds Performance counter stats for 'noploop 2': 1998.297883 task-clock-msecs # 0.998 CPUs 59 context-switches # 0.000 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec 119 page-faults # 0.000 M/sec 4,131,380,160 cycles # 2067.450 M/sec (scaled from 70.01%) 2,059,096,507 instructions # 0.498 IPC (scaled from 70.01%) 2,054,681,303 branches # 1028.216 M/sec (scaled from 70.01%) 25,650 branch-misses # 0.001 % (scaled from 30.05%) 2,056,283,014 cache-references # 1029.017 M/sec (scaled from 30.03%) 47,097 cache-misses # 0.024 M/sec (scaled from 30.02%) 2.001391016 seconds time elapsed Cc: David S.

perf stat: Add no-aggregation mode to -a This patch adds a new -A option to perf stat. If specified then perf stat does not aggregate counts across all monitored CPUs in system-wide mode, i.e., when using -a. This option is not supported in per-thread mode. Being able to get a per-cpu breakdown is useful to detect imbalances between CPUs when running a uniform workload than spans all monitored CPUs. The second version corrects the missing cpumap[] support, so that it works when the -C option is used. The third version fixes a missing cpumap[] in print_counter() and removes a stray patch in builtin-trace.c.

If specified then perf stat does not aggregate counts across all monitored CPUs in system-wide mode, i.e., when using -a. This option is not supported in per-thread mode. Being able to get a per-cpu breakdown is useful to detect imbalances between CPUs when running a uniform workload than spans all monitored CPUs. The second version corrects the missing cpumap[] support, so that it works when the -C option is used. The third version fixes a missing cpumap[] in print_counter() and removes a stray patch in builtin-trace.c.

perf stat: Add support for --initial-delay option When measuring workloads the startup phase -- doing page faults, dynamic linking, opening files -- is often very different from the rest of the workload. Especially with smaller kernels and using counter multiplexing this can give significant measurement errors. Multiplexing assumes that the workload is mostly the same over longer periods. But at startup there is typically some spike of activity which is relatively short. If many groups are multiplexing the one group seeing the spike, and which is then scaled up over the time to run all groups, may see a significant error. Also in general it's often not useful to measure the startup, because it is so different from the rest. One way around this is to use interval mode and discard the first sample, but this can be awkward because interval mode doesn't support intervals of less than 100ms, and also a useful interval is not necessarily the same as a useful startup delay. This patch adds a new --initial-delay / -D option to skip measuring for the startup phase. The time can be specified in ms Here's a simple example: perf stat -e page-faults bash -c 'for i in $(seq 100000) ; do true ; done' ... 3,721 page-faults ... If we just wait 20 ms the number of page faults is 1/3 less: perf stat -D 20 -e page-faults bash -c 'for i in $(seq 100000) ; do true ; done' ... 2,823 page-faults ... So we filtered out most of the startup noise from bash.

perf stat: Avoid skew when reading events When we don't have a tracee (i.e. we're attaching to a task or CPU), counters can still be running after our workload finishes, and can still be running as we read their values. As we read events one-by-one, there can be arbitrary skew between values of events, even within a group. This means that ratios within an event group are not reliable. This skew can be seen if measuring a group of identical events, e.g: # perf stat -a -C0 -e '{cycles,cycles}' sleep 1 To avoid this, we must stop groups from counting before we read the values of any constituent events. This patch adds and makes use of a new disable_counters() helper, which disables group leaders (and thus each group as a whole). This mirrors the use of enable_counters() for starting event groups in the absence of a tracee. Closing a group leader splits the group, and without a disabled group leader the newly split events will begin counting. Thus to ensure counts are reliable we must defer closing group leaders until all counts have been read. To do so this patch removes the event closing logic from the read_counters() helper, explicitly closes the events using perf_evlist__close(), which also aids legibility.

perf stat: Add support to print counts after a period of time Introduce a new option to print counts after N milliseconds and update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly. Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat. $ perf stat --time 2000 -e cycles -a Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 157,260,423 cycles 2.003060766 seconds time elapsed We can print the count deltas after N milliseconds with this new introduced option. This option is not supported with "-I" option. In addition, according to Kangliang's patch(19afd10410957), the monitoring overhead for system-wide core event could be very high if the interval-print parameter was below 100ms, and the limitation value is 10ms. So the same warning will be displayed when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms, and the minimal time is limited to 10ms. Users can make a decision according to their spcific cases. Committer notes: This actually stops the workload after the specified time, then prints the counts. So I renamed the option to --timeout and updated the documentation to state that it will not just print the counts after the specified time, but will really stop the 'perf stat' session and print the counts. The rename from 'time' to 'timeout' also fixes the build in systems where 'time' is used by glibc and can't be used as a name of a variable, such as centos:5 and centos:6. Changes since v3: - none. Changes since v2: - modify the time check in __run_perf_stat func to keep some consistency with the workload case. - add the warning when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms. - add the pr_err when the time is set below 10ms. Changes since v1: - none.

tools/perf/stat: Add event unit and scale support This patch adds perf stat support for handling event units and scales as exported by the kernel. The kernel can export PMU events actual unit and scaling factor via sysfs: $ ls -1 /sys/devices/power/events/energy-* /sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores /sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores.scale /sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores.unit /sys/devices/power/events/energy-pkg /sys/devices/power/events/energy-pkg.scale /sys/devices/power/events/energy-pkg.unit $ cat /sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores.scale 2.3283064365386962890625e-10 $ cat cat /sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores.unit Joules This patch modifies the pmu event alias code to check for the presence of the .unit and .scale files to load the corresponding values. They are then used by perf stat transparently: # perf stat -a -e power/energy-pkg/,power/energy-cores/,cycles -I 1000 sleep 1000 # time counts unit events 1.000214717 3.07 Joules power/energy-pkg/ [100.00%] 1.000214717 0.53 Joules power/energy-cores/ 1.000214717 12965028 cycles [100.00%] 2.000749289 3.01 Joules power/energy-pkg/ 2.000749289 0.52 Joules power/energy-cores/ 2.000749289 15817043 cycles When the event does not have an explicit unit exported by the kernel, nothing is printed. In csv output mode, there will be an empty field. Special thanks to Jiri for providing the supporting code in the parser to trigger reading of the scale and unit files.

perf_counter tools: Reduce perf stat measurement overhead/skew Vince Weaver reported a 'perf stat' measurement overhead in the count of retired instructions, which can amount to a +6000 instructions inflated count in the reported count. At present, perf stat creates its counters on the perf process. Thus the counters count the fork and various other activity in both the parent and child, such as the resolver overhead for resolving PLT entries for any libc functions that haven't been called before, such as execvp. This reduces the overhead by creating the counters on the child process after the fork, using a couple of pipes to synchronize so that the child process waits until the parent has created the counters before doing the exec. To eliminate the PLT resolution overhead on calling execvp, this does a dummy execvp first which will always fail. With this, the overhead of executing a program goes down from over 4800 instructions to about 90 instructions on powerpc (32-bit). This was measured with a statically-linked program written in assembler which only does the 3 instructions needed to call _exit(0).

perf tools: Enable grouping logic for parsed events This patch adds a functionality that allows to create event groups based on the way they are specified on the command line. Adding functionality to the '{}' group syntax introduced in earlier patch. The current '--group/-g' option behaviour remains intact. If you specify it for record/stat/top command, all the specified events become members of a single group with the first event as a group leader. With the new '{}' group syntax you can create group like: # perf record -e '{cycles,faults}' ls resulting in single event group containing 'cycles' and 'faults' events, with cycles event as group leader. All groups are created with regards to threads and cpus. Thus recording an event group within a 2 threads on server with 4 CPUs will create 8 separate groups. Examples (first event in brackets is group leader): # 1 group (cpu-clock,task-clock) perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock ls perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock}' ls # 2 groups (cpu-clock,task-clock) (minor-faults,major-faults) perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock},{minor-faults,major-faults}' ls # 1 group (cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults) perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock -e minor-faults,major-faults ls perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults}' ls # 2 groups (cpu-clock,task-clock) (minor-faults,major-faults) perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock} -e '{minor-faults,major-faults}' \ -e instructions ls # 1 group # (cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults,instructions) perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock \ -e minor-faults,major-faults -e instructions ls perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults,instructions}' ls It's possible to use standard event modifier for a group, which spans over all events in the group and updates each event modifier settings, for example: # perf record -r '{faults:k,cache-references}:p' resulting in ':kp' modifier being used for 'faults' and ':p' modifier being used for 'cache-references' event.

perf tools: Support weak groups in 'perf stat' Setting up groups can be complicated due to the complicated scheduling restrictions of different PMUs. User tools usually don't understand all these restrictions. Still in many cases it is useful to set up groups and they work most of the time. However if the group is set up wrong some members will not report any value because they never get scheduled. Add a concept of a 'weak group': try to set up a group, but if it's not schedulable fallback to not using a group. That gives us the best of both worlds: groups if they work, but still a usable fallback if they don't. In theory it would be possible to have more complex fallback strategies (e.g. try to split the group in half), but the simple fallback of not using a group seems to work for now. So far the weak group is only implemented for perf stat, not for record.

perf stat: Fall weak group back even for EBADF It's not possible to run a package event and a per cpu event in the same group. This is used by some of the power metrics. They work correctly when not using a group. Normally weak groups should handle that, but in this case EBADF is returned instead of the normal EINVAL. $ strace -e perf_event_open ./perf stat -v -e '{cstate_pkg/c2-residency/,msr/tsc/}:W' -a sleep 1 Using CPUID GenuineIntel-6-3E perf_event_open({type=0x17 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 0, -1, PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) perf_event_open({type=0x17 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 0, -1, 0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) perf_event_open({type=0x17 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 0, -1, 0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) perf_event_open({type=0x17 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 0, -1, 0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) perf_event_open({type=0x17 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 0, -1, 0) = 3 perf_event_open({type=0x7 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 0, 3, 0) = 4 perf_event_open({type=0x7 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 1, 0, 0) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor) and perf errors out.

perf tools: Support weak groups in 'perf stat' Setting up groups can be complicated due to the complicated scheduling restrictions of different PMUs. User tools usually don't understand all these restrictions. Still in many cases it is useful to set up groups and they work most of the time. However if the group is set up wrong some members will not report any value because they never get scheduled. Add a concept of a 'weak group': try to set up a group, but if it's not schedulable fallback to not using a group. That gives us the best of both worlds: groups if they work, but still a usable fallback if they don't. In theory it would be possible to have more complex fallback strategies (e.g. try to split the group in half), but the simple fallback of not using a group seems to work for now.

perf stat: clarify unsupported events from uncounted events perf stat continues running even if the event list contains counters that are not supported. The resulting output then contains <not counted> for those events which gets confusing as to which events are supported, but not counted and which are not supported.

tools/perf/stat: Add event unit and scale support This patch adds perf stat support for handling event units and scales as exported by the kernel. The kernel can export PMU events actual unit and scaling factor via sysfs: $ ls -1 /sys/devices/power/events/energy-* /sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores /sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores.scale /sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores.unit /sys/devices/power/events/energy-pkg /sys/devices/power/events/energy-pkg.scale /sys/devices/power/events/energy-pkg.unit $ cat /sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores.scale 2.3283064365386962890625e-10 $ cat cat /sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores.unit Joules This patch modifies the pmu event alias code to check for the presence of the .unit and .scale files to load the corresponding values. They are then used by perf stat transparently: # perf stat -a -e power/energy-pkg/,power/energy-cores/,cycles -I 1000 sleep 1000 # time counts unit events 1.000214717 3.07 Joules power/energy-pkg/ [100.00%] 1.000214717 0.53 Joules power/energy-cores/ 1.000214717 12965028 cycles [100.00%] 2.000749289 3.01 Joules power/energy-pkg/ 2.000749289 0.52 Joules power/energy-cores/ 2.000749289 15817043 cycles When the event does not have an explicit unit exported by the kernel, nothing is printed. In csv output mode, there will be an empty field. Special thanks to Jiri for providing the supporting code in the parser to trigger reading of the scale and unit files.

perf stat: Add feature to run and measure a command multiple times Add the --repeat <n> feature to perf stat, which repeats a given command up to a 100 times, collects the stats and calculates an average and a stddev. For example, the following oneliner 'perf stat' command runs hackbench 5 times and prints a tabulated result of all metrics, with averages and noise levels (in percentage) printed: aldebaran:~/linux/linux/tools/perf> ./perf stat --repeat 5 ~/hackbench 10 Time: 0.117 Time: 0.108 Time: 0.089 Time: 0.088 Time: 0.100 Performance counter stats for '/home/mingo/hackbench 10' (5 runs): 1243.989586 task-clock-msecs # 10.460 CPUs ( +- 4.720% ) 47706 context-switches # 0.038 M/sec ( +- 19.706% ) 387 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec ( +- 3.608% ) 17793 page-faults # 0.014 M/sec ( +- 0.354% ) 3770941606 cycles # 3031.329 M/sec ( +- 4.621% ) 1566372416 instructions # 0.415 IPC ( +- 2.703% ) 16783421 cache-references # 13.492 M/sec ( +- 5.202% ) 7128590 cache-misses # 5.730 M/sec ( +- 7.420% ) 0.118924455 seconds time elapsed. The goal of this feature is to allow the reliance on these accurate statistics and to know how many times a command has to be repeated for the noise to go down to an acceptable level.

perf stat: Add support to print counts after a period of time Introduce a new option to print counts after N milliseconds and update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly. Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat. $ perf stat --time 2000 -e cycles -a Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 157,260,423 cycles 2.003060766 seconds time elapsed We can print the count deltas after N milliseconds with this new introduced option. This option is not supported with "-I" option. In addition, according to Kangliang's patch(19afd10410957), the monitoring overhead for system-wide core event could be very high if the interval-print parameter was below 100ms, and the limitation value is 10ms. So the same warning will be displayed when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms, and the minimal time is limited to 10ms. Users can make a decision according to their spcific cases. Committer notes: This actually stops the workload after the specified time, then prints the counts. So I renamed the option to --timeout and updated the documentation to state that it will not just print the counts after the specified time, but will really stop the 'perf stat' session and print the counts. The rename from 'time' to 'timeout' also fixes the build in systems where 'time' is used by glibc and can't be used as a name of a variable, such as centos:5 and centos:6. Changes since v3: - none. Changes since v2: - modify the time check in __run_perf_stat func to keep some consistency with the workload case. - add the warning when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms. - add the pr_err when the time is set below 10ms.

perf stat: Fix endless wait for child process We hit a 'perf stat' issue by using following script: #!/bin/bash sleep 1000 & exec perf stat -a -e cycles -I1000 -- sleep 5 Since "perf stat" is launched by exec, the "sleep 1000" would be the child process of "perf stat". The wait4() call will not return because it's waiting for the child process "sleep 1000" to end. So 'perf stat' doesn't return even after 5s passes. This patch lets 'perf stat' return when the specified child process ends (in this case, the specified child process is "sleep 5").

perf stat: Avoid skew when reading events When we don't have a tracee (i.e. we're attaching to a task or CPU), counters can still be running after our workload finishes, and can still be running as we read their values. As we read events one-by-one, there can be arbitrary skew between values of events, even within a group. This means that ratios within an event group are not reliable. This skew can be seen if measuring a group of identical events, e.g: # perf stat -a -C0 -e '{cycles,cycles}' sleep 1 To avoid this, we must stop groups from counting before we read the values of any constituent events. This patch adds and makes use of a new disable_counters() helper, which disables group leaders (and thus each group as a whole). This mirrors the use of enable_counters() for starting event groups in the absence of a tracee. Closing a group leader splits the group, and without a disabled group leader the newly split events will begin counting. Thus to ensure counts are reliable we must defer closing group leaders until all counts have been read. To do so this patch removes the event closing logic from the read_counters() helper, explicitly closes the events using perf_evlist__close(), which also aids legibility.

perf stat: Avoid skew when reading events When we don't have a tracee (i.e. we're attaching to a task or CPU), counters can still be running after our workload finishes, and can still be running as we read their values. As we read events one-by-one, there can be arbitrary skew between values of events, even within a group. This means that ratios within an event group are not reliable. This skew can be seen if measuring a group of identical events, e.g: # perf stat -a -C0 -e '{cycles,cycles}' sleep 1 To avoid this, we must stop groups from counting before we read the values of any constituent events. This patch adds and makes use of a new disable_counters() helper, which disables group leaders (and thus each group as a whole). This mirrors the use of enable_counters() for starting event groups in the absence of a tracee. Closing a group leader splits the group, and without a disabled group leader the newly split events will begin counting. Thus to ensure counts are reliable we must defer closing group leaders until all counts have been read. To do so this patch removes the event closing logic from the read_counters() helper, explicitly closes the events using perf_evlist__close(), which also aids legibility.

perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variables perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking unused variables. The variable __used is defined to __attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to __attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning: '__used__' attribute ignored __unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition. If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name in its headers. The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android. This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with __maybe_unused.

perf stat: Basic support for TopDown in perf stat Add basic plumbing for TopDown in perf stat TopDown is intended to replace the frontend cycles idle/ backend cycles idle metrics in standard perf stat output. These metrics are not reliable in many workloads, due to out of order effects. This implements a new --topdown mode in perf stat (similar to --transaction) that measures the pipe line bottlenecks using standardized formulas. The measurement can be all done with 5 counters (one fixed counter) The result are four metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, BadSpeculation, Retiring that describe the CPU pipeline behavior on a high level. The full top down methology has many hierarchical metrics. This implementation only supports level 1 which can be collected without multiplexing. A full implementation of top down on top of perf is available in pmu-tools toplev. (http://github.com/andikleen/pmu-tools) The current version works on Intel Core CPUs starting with Sandy Bridge, and Atom CPUs starting with Silvermont. In principle the generic metrics should be also implementable on other out of order CPUs. TopDown level 1 uses a set of abstracted metrics which are generic to out of order CPU cores (although some CPUs may not implement all of them): topdown-total-slots Available slots in the pipeline topdown-slots-issued Slots issued into the pipeline topdown-slots-retired Slots successfully retired topdown-fetch-bubbles Pipeline gaps in the frontend topdown-recovery-bubbles Pipeline gaps during recovery from misspeculation These metrics then allow to compute four useful metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, Retiring, BadSpeculation. Add a new --topdown options to enable events. When --topdown is specified set up events for all topdown events supported by the kernel. Add topdown-* as a special case to the event parser, as is needed for all events containing -. The actual code to compute the metrics is in follow-on patches. v2: Use standard sysctl read function. v3: Move x86 specific code to arch/ v4: Enable --metric-only implicitly for topdown. v5: Add --single-thread option to not force per core mode v6: Fix output order of topdown metrics v7: Allow combining with -d v8: Remove --single-thread again v9: Rename functions, adding arch_ and topdown_. v10: Expand man page and describe TopDown better Paste intro into commit description.

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. % perf stat -M Summary --metric-only -a sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': Instructions CLKS CPU_Utilization GFLOPs SMT_2T_Utilization Kernel_Utilization 317614222.0 1392930775.0 0.0 0.0 0.2 0.1 1.001497549 seconds time elapsed % perf stat -M GFLOPs flops Performance counter stats for 'flops': 3,999,541,471 fp_comp_ops_exe.sse_scalar_single # 1.2 GFLOPs (66.65%) 14 fp_comp_ops_exe.sse_scalar_double (66.65%) 0 fp_comp_ops_exe.sse_packed_double (66.67%) 0 fp_comp_ops_exe.sse_packed_single (66.70%) 0 simd_fp_256.packed_double (66.70%) 0 simd_fp_256.packed_single (66.67%) 0 duration_time 3.238372845 seconds time elapsed v2: Add missing header file v3: Move find_map to pmu.c Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170831194036.30146-7-andi@firstfloor.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

perf stat: Add support to print counts for fixed times Introduce a new option to print counts for fixed number of times and update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly.

Changes since v2: - none. Changes since v1: - change the name of the new option "times-print" to "interval-count". - keep the new option interval specifically.

perf stat: Add support to print counts after a period of time Introduce a new option to print counts after N milliseconds and update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly. Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat. $ perf stat --time 2000 -e cycles -a Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 157,260,423 cycles 2.003060766 seconds time elapsed We can print the count deltas after N milliseconds with this new introduced option. This option is not supported with "-I" option. In addition, according to Kangliang's patch(19afd10410957), the monitoring overhead for system-wide core event could be very high if the interval-print parameter was below 100ms, and the limitation value is 10ms. So the same warning will be displayed when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms, and the minimal time is limited to 10ms. Users can make a decision according to their spcific cases. Committer notes: This actually stops the workload after the specified time, then prints the counts. So I renamed the option to --timeout and updated the documentation to state that it will not just print the counts after the specified time, but will really stop the 'perf stat' session and print the counts. The rename from 'time' to 'timeout' also fixes the build in systems where 'time' is used by glibc and can't be used as a name of a variable, such as centos:5 and centos:6. Changes since v3: - none. Changes since v2: - modify the time check in __run_perf_stat func to keep some consistency with the workload case. - add the warning when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms. - add the pr_err when the time is set below 10ms. Changes since v1: - none.

perf stat: Basic support for TopDown in perf stat Add basic plumbing for TopDown in perf stat TopDown is intended to replace the frontend cycles idle/ backend cycles idle metrics in standard perf stat output. These metrics are not reliable in many workloads, due to out of order effects. This implements a new --topdown mode in perf stat (similar to --transaction) that measures the pipe line bottlenecks using standardized formulas. The measurement can be all done with 5 counters (one fixed counter) The result are four metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, BadSpeculation, Retiring that describe the CPU pipeline behavior on a high level. The full top down methology has many hierarchical metrics. This implementation only supports level 1 which can be collected without multiplexing. A full implementation of top down on top of perf is available in pmu-tools toplev. (http://github.com/andikleen/pmu-tools) The current version works on Intel Core CPUs starting with Sandy Bridge, and Atom CPUs starting with Silvermont. In principle the generic metrics should be also implementable on other out of order CPUs. TopDown level 1 uses a set of abstracted metrics which are generic to out of order CPU cores (although some CPUs may not implement all of them): topdown-total-slots Available slots in the pipeline topdown-slots-issued Slots issued into the pipeline topdown-slots-retired Slots successfully retired topdown-fetch-bubbles Pipeline gaps in the frontend topdown-recovery-bubbles Pipeline gaps during recovery from misspeculation These metrics then allow to compute four useful metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, Retiring, BadSpeculation. Add a new --topdown options to enable events. When --topdown is specified set up events for all topdown events supported by the kernel. Add topdown-* as a special case to the event parser, as is needed for all events containing -. The actual code to compute the metrics is in follow-on patches. v2: Use standard sysctl read function. v3: Move x86 specific code to arch/ v4: Enable --metric-only implicitly for topdown. v5: Add --single-thread option to not force per core mode v6: Fix output order of topdown metrics v7: Allow combining with -d v8: Remove --single-thread again v9: Rename functions, adding arch_ and topdown_. v10: Expand man page and describe TopDown better Paste intro into commit description.

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. % perf stat -M Summary --metric-only -a sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': Instructions CLKS CPU_Utilization GFLOPs SMT_2T_Utilization Kernel_Utilization 317614222.0 1392930775.0 0.0 0.0 0.2 0.1 1.001497549 seconds time elapsed % perf stat -M GFLOPs flops Performance counter stats for 'flops': 3,999,541,471 fp_comp_ops_exe.sse_scalar_single # 1.2 GFLOPs (66.65%) 14 fp_comp_ops_exe.sse_scalar_double (66.65%) 0 fp_comp_ops_exe.sse_packed_double (66.67%) 0 fp_comp_ops_exe.sse_packed_single (66.70%) 0 simd_fp_256.packed_double (66.70%) 0 simd_fp_256.packed_single (66.67%) 0 duration_time 3.238372845 seconds time elapsed v2: Add missing header file v3: Move find_map to pmu.c Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170831194036.30146-7-andi@firstfloor.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

perf tools: Replace _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF with max_present_cpu in cpu_topology_map There are 2 problems wrt. cpu_topology_map on systems with sparse CPUs: 1. offline/absent CPUs will have their socket_id and core_id set to -1 which triggers: "socket_id number is too big.You may need to upgrade the perf tool." 2. size of cpu_topology_map (perf_env.cpu[]) is allocated based on _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF, but can be indexed with CPU ids going above. Users of perf_env.cpu[] are using CPU id as index. This can lead to read beyond what was allocated: ==19991== Invalid read of size 4 ==19991== at 0x490CEB: check_cpu_topology (topology.c:69) ==19991== by 0x490CEB: test_session_topology (topology.c:106) ... For example: _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF == 16 available: 2 nodes (0-1) node 0 cpus: 0 6 8 10 16 22 24 26 node 0 size: 12004 MB node 0 free: 9470 MB node 1 cpus: 1 7 9 11 23 25 27 node 1 size: 12093 MB node 1 free: 9406 MB node distances: node 0 1 0: 10 20 1: 20 10 This patch changes HEADER_NRCPUS.nr_cpus_available from _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF to max_present_cpu and updates any user of cpu_topology_map to iterate with nr_cpus_avail.

perf stat: Basic support for TopDown in perf stat Add basic plumbing for TopDown in perf stat TopDown is intended to replace the frontend cycles idle/ backend cycles idle metrics in standard perf stat output. These metrics are not reliable in many workloads, due to out of order effects. This implements a new --topdown mode in perf stat (similar to --transaction) that measures the pipe line bottlenecks using standardized formulas. The measurement can be all done with 5 counters (one fixed counter) The result are four metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, BadSpeculation, Retiring that describe the CPU pipeline behavior on a high level. The full top down methology has many hierarchical metrics. This implementation only supports level 1 which can be collected without multiplexing. A full implementation of top down on top of perf is available in pmu-tools toplev. (http://github.com/andikleen/pmu-tools) The current version works on Intel Core CPUs starting with Sandy Bridge, and Atom CPUs starting with Silvermont. In principle the generic metrics should be also implementable on other out of order CPUs. TopDown level 1 uses a set of abstracted metrics which are generic to out of order CPU cores (although some CPUs may not implement all of them): topdown-total-slots Available slots in the pipeline topdown-slots-issued Slots issued into the pipeline topdown-slots-retired Slots successfully retired topdown-fetch-bubbles Pipeline gaps in the frontend topdown-recovery-bubbles Pipeline gaps during recovery from misspeculation These metrics then allow to compute four useful metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, Retiring, BadSpeculation. Add a new --topdown options to enable events. When --topdown is specified set up events for all topdown events supported by the kernel. Add topdown-* as a special case to the event parser, as is needed for all events containing -. The actual code to compute the metrics is in follow-on patches. v2: Use standard sysctl read function. v3: Move x86 specific code to arch/ v4: Enable --metric-only implicitly for topdown. v5: Add --single-thread option to not force per core mode v6: Fix output order of topdown metrics v7: Allow combining with -d v8: Remove --single-thread again v9: Rename functions, adding arch_ and topdown_. v10: Expand man page and describe TopDown better Paste intro into commit description.

perf stat: Basic support for TopDown in perf stat Add basic plumbing for TopDown in perf stat TopDown is intended to replace the frontend cycles idle/ backend cycles idle metrics in standard perf stat output. These metrics are not reliable in many workloads, due to out of order effects. This implements a new --topdown mode in perf stat (similar to --transaction) that measures the pipe line bottlenecks using standardized formulas. The measurement can be all done with 5 counters (one fixed counter) The result are four metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, BadSpeculation, Retiring that describe the CPU pipeline behavior on a high level. The full top down methology has many hierarchical metrics. This implementation only supports level 1 which can be collected without multiplexing. A full implementation of top down on top of perf is available in pmu-tools toplev. (http://github.com/andikleen/pmu-tools) The current version works on Intel Core CPUs starting with Sandy Bridge, and Atom CPUs starting with Silvermont. In principle the generic metrics should be also implementable on other out of order CPUs. TopDown level 1 uses a set of abstracted metrics which are generic to out of order CPU cores (although some CPUs may not implement all of them): topdown-total-slots Available slots in the pipeline topdown-slots-issued Slots issued into the pipeline topdown-slots-retired Slots successfully retired topdown-fetch-bubbles Pipeline gaps in the frontend topdown-recovery-bubbles Pipeline gaps during recovery from misspeculation These metrics then allow to compute four useful metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, Retiring, BadSpeculation. Add a new --topdown options to enable events. When --topdown is specified set up events for all topdown events supported by the kernel. Add topdown-* as a special case to the event parser, as is needed for all events containing -. The actual code to compute the metrics is in follow-on patches. v2: Use standard sysctl read function. v3: Move x86 specific code to arch/ v4: Enable --metric-only implicitly for topdown. v5: Add --single-thread option to not force per core mode v6: Fix output order of topdown metrics v7: Allow combining with -d v8: Remove --single-thread again v9: Rename functions, adding arch_ and topdown_. v10: Expand man page and describe TopDown better Paste intro into commit description.

perf stat: Basic support for TopDown in perf stat Add basic plumbing for TopDown in perf stat TopDown is intended to replace the frontend cycles idle/ backend cycles idle metrics in standard perf stat output. These metrics are not reliable in many workloads, due to out of order effects. This implements a new --topdown mode in perf stat (similar to --transaction) that measures the pipe line bottlenecks using standardized formulas. The measurement can be all done with 5 counters (one fixed counter) The result are four metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, BadSpeculation, Retiring that describe the CPU pipeline behavior on a high level. The full top down methology has many hierarchical metrics. This implementation only supports level 1 which can be collected without multiplexing. A full implementation of top down on top of perf is available in pmu-tools toplev. (http://github.com/andikleen/pmu-tools) The current version works on Intel Core CPUs starting with Sandy Bridge, and Atom CPUs starting with Silvermont. In principle the generic metrics should be also implementable on other out of order CPUs. TopDown level 1 uses a set of abstracted metrics which are generic to out of order CPU cores (although some CPUs may not implement all of them): topdown-total-slots Available slots in the pipeline topdown-slots-issued Slots issued into the pipeline topdown-slots-retired Slots successfully retired topdown-fetch-bubbles Pipeline gaps in the frontend topdown-recovery-bubbles Pipeline gaps during recovery from misspeculation These metrics then allow to compute four useful metrics: FrontendBound, BackendBound, Retiring, BadSpeculation. Add a new --topdown options to enable events. When --topdown is specified set up events for all topdown events supported by the kernel.

perf stat: Use cpu-clock event for cpu targets Currently 'perf stat' always counts task-clock event by default. But it's somewhat confusing for system-wide targets (especially with 'sleep N' as the 'sleep' task just sleeps and doesn't use cputime). Changing to cpu-clock event instead for that case makes more sense IMHO.

/* Append very, very detailed run extra attributes: */
perf stat: Initialize default events wrt exclude_{guest,host} When no event is specified the tools use perf_evlist__add_default(), that will call event_attr_init to initialize the KVM exclusion bits. When the change was made to the tools so that by default guest samples would be excluded, the changes were made just to the parsing routines and to perf_evlist__add_default(), not to perf_evlist__add_attrs, that is used so far just by perf stat to add multiple events, according to the level of detail specified. Recently the tools were changed to reconstruct the event name from all the details in perf_event_attr, not just from .type and .config, but taking into account all the feature bits (.exclude_{guest,host,user,kernel,etc}, .precise_ip, etc). That is when we noticed that the default for perf stat wasn't the one for the rest of the tools, i.e. the .exclude_guest bit wasn't being set. I.e. the default, that doesn't call event_attr_init was showing the :HG modifier: $ perf stat usleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1': 0.942119 task-clock # 0.454 CPUs utilized 1 context-switches # 0.001 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 126 page-faults # 0.134 M/sec 693,193 cycles:HG # 0.736 GHz [40.11%] 407,461 stalled-cycles-frontend:HG # 58.78% frontend cycles idle [72.29%] 365,403 stalled-cycles-backend:HG # 52.71% backend cycles idle 465,982 instructions:HG # 0.67 insns per cycle # 0.87 stalled cycles per insn 89,760 branches:HG # 95.275 M/sec 6,178 branch-misses:HG # 6.88% of all branches 0.002077228 seconds time elapsed While if one explicitely specifies the same events, which will make the parsing code to be called and thus event_attr_init is called: $ perf stat -e task-clock,context-switches,migrations,page-faults,cycles,stalled-cycles-frontend,stalled-cycles-backend,instructions,branches,branch-misses usleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1': 1.040349 task-clock # 0.500 CPUs utilized 2 context-switches # 0.002 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 127 page-faults # 0.122 M/sec 587,966 cycles # 0.565 GHz [13.18%] 459,167 stalled-cycles-frontend # 78.09% frontend cycles idle 390,249 stalled-cycles-backend # 66.37% backend cycles idle 504,006 instructions # 0.86 insns per cycle # 0.91 stalled cycles per insn 96,455 branches # 92.714 M/sec 6,522 branch-misses # 6.76% of all branches [96.12%] 0.002078681 seconds time elapsed Fix it by introducing a perf_evlist__add_default_attrs method that will call evlist_attr_init in all the perf_event_attr entries before adding the events.

perf stat: Add support to print counts after a period of time Introduce a new option to print counts after N milliseconds and update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly. Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat. $ perf stat --time 2000 -e cycles -a Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 157,260,423 cycles 2.003060766 seconds time elapsed We can print the count deltas after N milliseconds with this new introduced option. This option is not supported with "-I" option. In addition, according to Kangliang's patch(19afd10410957), the monitoring overhead for system-wide core event could be very high if the interval-print parameter was below 100ms, and the limitation value is 10ms. So the same warning will be displayed when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms, and the minimal time is limited to 10ms. Users can make a decision according to their spcific cases. Committer notes: This actually stops the workload after the specified time, then prints the counts. So I renamed the option to --timeout and updated the documentation to state that it will not just print the counts after the specified time, but will really stop the 'perf stat' session and print the counts. The rename from 'time' to 'timeout' also fixes the build in systems where 'time' is used by glibc and can't be used as a name of a variable, such as centos:5 and centos:6. Changes since v3: - none. Changes since v2: - modify the time check in __run_perf_stat func to keep some consistency with the workload case. - add the warning when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms. - add the pr_err when the time is set below 10ms. Changes since v1: - none.

perf stat: add perf stat -B to pretty print large numbers It is hard to read very large numbers so provide an option to perf stat to separate thousands using a separator. The patch leverages the locale support of stdio. You need to set your LC_NUMERIC appropriately, for instance LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF8. You need to pass -B to activate this feature. This way existing scripts parsing the output do not need to be changed.

perf stat: Output JSON MetricExpr metric Add generic infrastructure to perf stat to output ratios for "MetricExpr" entries in the event lists. Many events are more useful as ratios than in raw form, typically some count in relation to total ticks. Transfer the MetricExpr information from the alias to the evsel. We mark the events that need to be collected for MetricExpr, and also link the events using them with a pointer. The code is careful to always prefer the right event in the same group to minimize multiplexing errors. At the moment only a single relation is supported. Then add a rblist to the stat shadow code that remembers stats based on the cpu and context. Then finally update and retrieve and print these values similarly to the existing hardcoded perf metrics. We use the simple expression parser added earlier to evaluate the expression. Normally we just output the result without further commentary, but for --metric-only this would lead to empty columns. So for this case use the original event as description. There is no attempt to automatically add the MetricExpr event, if it is missing, however we suggest it to the user, because the user tool doesn't have enough information to reliably construct a group that is guaranteed to schedule. So we leave that to the user. % perf stat -a -I 1000 -e '{unc_p_clockticks,unc_p_freq_max_os_cycles}' 1.000147889 800,085,181 unc_p_clockticks 1.000147889 93,126,241 unc_p_freq_max_os_cycles # 11.6 2.000448381 800,218,217 unc_p_clockticks 2.000448381 142,516,095 unc_p_freq_max_os_cycles # 17.8 3.000639852 800,243,057 unc_p_clockticks 3.000639852 162,292,689 unc_p_freq_max_os_cycles # 20.3 % perf stat -a -I 1000 -e '{unc_p_clockticks,unc_p_freq_max_os_cycles}' --metric-only # time freq_max_os_cycles % 1.000127077 0.9 2.000301436 0.7 3.000456379 0.0 v2: Change from DivideBy to MetricExpr v3: Use expr__ prefix.

Commiter note: Since we enabled --big-num by default in 201e0b0 and -x can't be used with it, we need to notice if the user explicitely enabled or disabled -B, add code to disable big_num if the user didn't explicitely set --big_num when -x is used.

perf stat: Add support to print counts after a period of time Introduce a new option to print counts after N milliseconds and update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly. Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat. $ perf stat --time 2000 -e cycles -a Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 157,260,423 cycles 2.003060766 seconds time elapsed We can print the count deltas after N milliseconds with this new introduced option. This option is not supported with "-I" option. In addition, according to Kangliang's patch(19afd10410957), the monitoring overhead for system-wide core event could be very high if the interval-print parameter was below 100ms, and the limitation value is 10ms. So the same warning will be displayed when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms, and the minimal time is limited to 10ms. Users can make a decision according to their spcific cases. Committer notes: This actually stops the workload after the specified time, then prints the counts. So I renamed the option to --timeout and updated the documentation to state that it will not just print the counts after the specified time, but will really stop the 'perf stat' session and print the counts. The rename from 'time' to 'timeout' also fixes the build in systems where 'time' is used by glibc and can't be used as a name of a variable, such as centos:5 and centos:6. Changes since v3: - none. Changes since v2: - modify the time check in __run_perf_stat func to keep some consistency with the workload case. - add the warning when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms. - add the pr_err when the time is set below 10ms. Changes since v1: - none.

perf stat: Implement --metric-only mode Add a new mode to only print metrics. Sometimes we don't care about the raw values, just want the computed metrics. This allows more compact printing, so with -I each sample is only a single line. This also allows easier plotting and processing with other tools. The main target is with using --topdown, but it also works with -T and standard perf stat. A few metrics are not supported. To avoiding having to hardcode all the metrics in the code it uses a two pass approach: first compute dummy metrics and only print the headers in the print_metric callback. Then use the callback to print the actual values. There are some additional changes in the stat printout code to handle all metrics being on a single line.

Changes since v2: - none. Changes since v1: - change the name of the new option "times-print" to "interval-count". - keep the new option interval specifically.

perf stat: Add support to print counts after a period of time Introduce a new option to print counts after N milliseconds and update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly. Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat. $ perf stat --time 2000 -e cycles -a Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 157,260,423 cycles 2.003060766 seconds time elapsed We can print the count deltas after N milliseconds with this new introduced option. This option is not supported with "-I" option. In addition, according to Kangliang's patch(19afd10410957), the monitoring overhead for system-wide core event could be very high if the interval-print parameter was below 100ms, and the limitation value is 10ms. So the same warning will be displayed when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms, and the minimal time is limited to 10ms. Users can make a decision according to their spcific cases. Committer notes: This actually stops the workload after the specified time, then prints the counts. So I renamed the option to --timeout and updated the documentation to state that it will not just print the counts after the specified time, but will really stop the 'perf stat' session and print the counts. The rename from 'time' to 'timeout' also fixes the build in systems where 'time' is used by glibc and can't be used as a name of a variable, such as centos:5 and centos:6. Changes since v3: - none. Changes since v2: - modify the time check in __run_perf_stat func to keep some consistency with the workload case. - add the warning when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms. - add the pr_err when the time is set below 10ms. Changes since v1: - none.

perf stat: Add feature to run and measure a command multiple times Add the --repeat <n> feature to perf stat, which repeats a given command up to a 100 times, collects the stats and calculates an average and a stddev. For example, the following oneliner 'perf stat' command runs hackbench 5 times and prints a tabulated result of all metrics, with averages and noise levels (in percentage) printed: aldebaran:~/linux/linux/tools/perf> ./perf stat --repeat 5 ~/hackbench 10 Time: 0.117 Time: 0.108 Time: 0.089 Time: 0.088 Time: 0.100 Performance counter stats for '/home/mingo/hackbench 10' (5 runs): 1243.989586 task-clock-msecs # 10.460 CPUs ( +- 4.720% ) 47706 context-switches # 0.038 M/sec ( +- 19.706% ) 387 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec ( +- 3.608% ) 17793 page-faults # 0.014 M/sec ( +- 0.354% ) 3770941606 cycles # 3031.329 M/sec ( +- 4.621% ) 1566372416 instructions # 0.415 IPC ( +- 2.703% ) 16783421 cache-references # 13.492 M/sec ( +- 5.202% ) 7128590 cache-misses # 5.730 M/sec ( +- 7.420% ) 0.118924455 seconds time elapsed. The goal of this feature is to allow the reliance on these accurate statistics and to know how many times a command has to be repeated for the noise to go down to an acceptable level. (The -v option can be used to see a line printed out as each run progresses.)
