[PATCHv2 0/8] perf tools: Add perf data CTF conversion

[PATCHv2 0/8] perf tools: Add perf data CTF conversion

[Jiri Olsa]

hi,
this is follow up on original RFC patchset:
  http://marc.info/?t=140732735600004&r=1&w=2

Basically we are adding 'perf data convert' command to
allow conversion of perf data file into CTF [1] data.

v2 changes:
  - addressed comments from Namhyung
  - rebased to latest acme's perf/core

Changes from RFC:
  - able to generate CTF data, that are possible to be displayed under
    tracecompas GUI [3], please check several screenshots in here [4]
  - storing CTF data streams per cpu
  - several cleanups

Examples:
- Catch default perf data (cycles event):
  $ perf record ls
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.012 MB perf.data (~546 samples) ]

- To display converted CTF data run [2]:
  $ babeltrace ./ctf-data/
  [03:19:13.962125533] (+?.?????????) cycles: { }, { ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8105443A, tid = 20714, pid = 20714, period = 1 }
  [03:19:13.962130001] (+0.000004468) cycles: { }, { ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8105443A, tid = 20714, pid = 20714, period = 1 }
  [03:19:13.962131936] (+0.000001935) cycles: { }, { ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8105443A, tid = 20714, pid = 20714, period = 8 }
  [03:19:13.962133732] (+0.000001796) cycles: { }, { ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8105443A, tid = 20714, pid = 20714, period = 114 }
  [03:19:13.962135557] (+0.000001825) cycles: { }, { ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8105443A, tid = 20714, pid = 20714, period = 2087 }
  [03:19:13.962137627] (+0.000002070) cycles: { }, { ip = 0xFFFFFFFF81361938, tid = 20714, pid = 20714, period = 37582 }
  [03:19:13.962161091] (+0.000023464) cycles: { }, { ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8124218F, tid = 20714, pid = 20714, period = 600246 }
  [03:19:13.962517569] (+0.000356478) cycles: { }, { ip = 0xFFFFFFFF811A75DB, tid = 20714, pid = 20714, period = 1325731 }

- To get some nice output in tracecompas GUI [3], please capture sched:*
  and syscall tracepoints like:
  # perf record -e 'sched:*,raw_syscalls:*' -a
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 412.347 MB perf.data (~18015721 samples) ]

- To convert perf data file run:
  # perf data convert --to-ctf=./ctf 
  [ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './ctf' ]
  [ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 408.421 MB (3964792 samples) ]

- To display converted CTF data run [2]:
  # babeltrace ./ctf-data/

[PATCH 1/8] perf tools: Add feature check for libbabeltrace

[Jiri Olsa]

Adding feature check for babeltrace library [1], which will be
used for perf data file CTF [2] conversion in following patches.

The babeltrace library is now automatically detected as standard
feature. It's possible to specify LIBBABELTRACE_DIR make variable
to specify location of installed libbabeltrace, like:

  $ make LIBBABELTRACE_DIR=/opt/libbabeltrace/
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j4' parallel build

  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                         dwarf: [ on  ]
  ...                         glibc: [ on  ]
  ...                          gtk2: [ on  ]
  ...                      libaudit: [ on  ]
  ...                        libbfd: [ on  ]
  ...                        libelf: [ on  ]
  ...                       libnuma: [ on  ]
  ...                       libperl: [ on  ]
  ...                     libpython: [ on  ]
  ...                      libslang: [ on  ]
  ...                     libunwind: [ on  ]
  ...                 libbabeltrace: [ on  ]
  ...            libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ on  ]
  ...                          zlib: [ on  ]
  ...     DWARF post unwind library: libunwind

[PATCH 2/8] perf tools: Add new perf data command

[Jiri Olsa]

Adding new 'perf data' command to provide operations over
data files.

The 'perf data convert' sub command is coming in following
patch, but there's possibility for other useful commands
like 'perf data ls' (to display perf data file in directory
in ls style).

[PATCH 3/8] perf data: Add perf data to CTF conversion support

[Jiri Olsa]

Adding 'perf data convert' to convert perf data file into
different format. This patch adds support for CTF format
conversion.

To convert perf.data into CTF run:
  $ perf data convert --to-ctf=./ctf-data/
  [ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './ctf-data/' ]
  [ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 11.268 MB (100230 samples) ]

The command will create CTF metadata out of perf.data file
(or one specified via -i option) and then convert all sample
events into single CTF stream.

Each sample_type bit is translated into separated CTF event
field apart from following exceptions:

  PERF_SAMPLE_RAW          - added in next patch
  PERF_SAMPLE_READ         - TODO
  PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN    - TODO
  PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK - TODO
  PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_USER    - TODO
  PERF_SAMPLE_STACK_USER   - TODO

  $ perf --debug=data-convert=2 data convert ...

The converted CTF data could be analyzed by CTF tools, like
babletrace or tracecompass [1].

  $ babeltrace ./ctf-data/
  [03:19:13.962125533] (+?.?????????) cycles: { }, { ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8105443A, tid = 20714, pid = 20714, period = 1 }

The following members to the ctf-environment were decided
to be added to distinguish and specify perf CTF data:
  - domain
    It says "kernel" because it contains a kernel trace (not to be
    confused with a user space like lttng-ust does)
  - tracer_name
    It says perf. This can be used to distinguish between lttng and
    perf CTF based trace.
  - version
    The kernel version from stream. In addition to release, this is
    what it looks like on a Debian kernel:
      release = "3.14-1-amd64";
      version = "3.14.0";

[PATCH 4/8] perf data: Add a 'perf' prefix to the generic fields

[Jiri Olsa]

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>

Some of the tracers bring their own id or pid fields and we can end up
having two of them. This patch adds a "perf_" prefix to the 'generic'
fields so we avoid a clash of the member names.

The change is visible in the babeltrace output:

Before:
  $ babeltrace ./ctf-data/
  [03:19:13.962131936] (+0.000001935) cycles: { }, { ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8105443A, tid = 20714, pid = 20714, period = 8 }
  [03:19:13.962133732] (+0.000001796) cycles: { }, { ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8105443A, tid = 20714, pid = 20714, period = 114 }
  ...

Now:
  $ babeltrace ./ctf-data/
  [03:19:13.962131936] (+0.000001935) cycles: { }, { perf_ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8105443A, perf_tid = 20714, perf_pid = 20714, perf_period = 8 }
  [03:19:13.962133732] (+0.000001796) cycles: { }, { perf_ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8105443A, perf_tid = 20714, perf_pid = 20714, perf_period = 114 }
  ...

[PATCH 5/8] perf data: Add tracepoint events fields CTF conversion support

[Jiri Olsa]

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>

Adding support to convert tracepoint event fields into CTF
event fields.

We parse each tracepoint event for CTF conversion and add
tracepoint fields as regular CTF event fields, so they
appear in babeltrace output like:

  $ babeltrace ./ctf-data/
  ...
  [09:02:00.950703057] (+?.?????????) sched:sched_stat_runtime: { }, { perf_ip = ... SNIP ... common_type = 298, common_flags = 1, \
  common_preempt_count = 0, common_pid = 31813, comm = "perf", pid = 31813, runtime = 458800, vruntime = 52059858071 }

[PATCH 6/8] perf data: Switch to multiple cpu stream files

[Jiri Olsa]

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>

Currently we store the data into single data strea/file. The cpu
if data is stored within the event sample. The lttng puts the CPU
number that belongs to the event into the packet context instead
into the event.

This patch makes sure that the trace produce by perf does look the
same way. We now use one stream per-CPU. Having it all in one stream
increased the total size of the resulting file. The test went from
416KiB (with perf_cpu event member) to 24MiB due to the required
(and pointless) flush. With the per-cpu streams the total size went
up to 588KiB.

[PATCH 7/8] perf data: Enable stream flush within processing

[Jiri Olsa]

For big data files the size of data allocated for stream
instance could get really high. It's needed to flush the
data out of the stream once in a while.

Unfortunately there's no size indication in the stream
object, so we govern the flush based on the number of
stored events. Current flush limit is set ot 100000
events.

Are you expecting to need a --from-ctf? if not should that just be --ctf?

I guess the motivation (unintentional) was more to have the 'sentence' like command ;-)

  perf data convert --to-ctf ..

IMO it's more descriptive then:

  perf data convert --ctf

How is babeltrace showing time-of-day for perf-based data files? Is that 
tod when the command is run?

CTF needs an a base offset which we set to 0 because we don't have it.
It then takes the NS timestamp and computes the "time".

so the perf-clock timestamp is converted to hour-min-second-nsec. That 
is even more confusing - for me at least.

By base offset you mean the conversion between perf-clock and realtime? 
What if that information is known (e.g., my tree at 
https://github.com/dsahern/linux as time-of-day support through a klm) - 
what's the ctf function to set the base offset? Can it be changed as a 
file is processed - e.g., tracepoints capturing ntp adjustments?

This is the default view of babeltrace. You can switch it off and see
the timestamp in (base + ns).

> By base offset you mean the conversion between perf-clock and realtime?
yes.

Not sure I can follow here. If I'm not mistaken, the perf-clock starts
at 0 at boot time and is then incremented. If you manage to compute the
offset between perf-clock "0" and current-time at-this point then you
can use this as "base". That means, perf-timestamp + base is the
time+date when this event was captured. This base offset isn't stored
in the perf stream.
If you look at ctf_writer__setup_clock() (patch #3) it sets the offset
I refer to. This offset can be set only once and can't be adjusted.
