perf record __cmd_record() does not poll evlist pollfds. Instead it polls
thread_data[0].pollfd. That happens whether or not threads are being used.
perf record duplicates evlist mmap pollfds as needed for separate threads.
The non-perf-event represented by evlist->ctl_fd has to handled separately,
which is done explicitly, duplicating it into the thread_data[0] pollfds.
That approach neglects any other non-perf-event file descriptors. Currently
there is also done_fd which needs the same handling.
Add a new generalized approach.
Add fdarray_flag__non_perf_event to identify the file descriptors that
need the special handling. For those cases, also keep a mapping of the
evlist pollfd index and thread pollfd index, so that the evlist revents
can be updated.
Although this patch adds the new handling, it does not take it into use.
There is no functional change, but it is the precursor to a fix, so is
marked as a fix.
Fixes: 415ccb58f68a ("perf record: Introduce thread specific data array")

evlist__add_wakeup_eventfd() calls perf_evlist__add_pollfd() to add a
non-perf-event to the evlist pollfds. Since commit 415ccb58f68a
("perf record: Introduce thread specific data array") that doesn't work
because evlist pollfs is not polled and done_fd is not duplicated into
thread-data.
Patch "perf record: Fix way of handling non-perf-event pollfds" added a new
approach that ensures file descriptors like done_fd are handled correctly
by flagging them as fdarray_flag__non_perf_event.
Fix by flagging done_fd as fdarray_flag__non_perf_event.
Example:
Before:
$ sleep 3 & perf record -vv -p $!
...
thread_data[0x55f44bd34140]: pollfd[0] <- event_fd=5
thread_data[0x55f44bd34140]: pollfd[1] <- event_fd=6
thread_data[0x55f44bd34140]: pollfd[2] <- event_fd=7
thread_data[0x55f44bd34140]: pollfd[3] <- event_fd=8
thread_data[0x55f44bd34140]: pollfd[4] <- event_fd=9
thread_data[0x55f44bd34140]: pollfd[5] <- event_fd=10
thread_data[0x55f44bd34140]: pollfd[6] <- event_fd=11
thread_data[0x55f44bd34140]: pollfd[7] <- event_fd=12
...
After:
$ sleep 3 & perf record -vv -p $!
...
thread_data[0x55a8ded89140]: pollfd[0] <- event_fd=5
thread_data[0x55a8ded89140]: pollfd[1] <- event_fd=6
thread_data[0x55a8ded89140]: pollfd[2] <- event_fd=7
thread_data[0x55a8ded89140]: pollfd[3] <- event_fd=8
thread_data[0x55a8ded89140]: pollfd[4] <- event_fd=9
thread_data[0x55a8ded89140]: pollfd[5] <- event_fd=10
thread_data[0x55a8ded89140]: pollfd[6] <- event_fd=11
thread_data[0x55a8ded89140]: pollfd[7] <- event_fd=12
thread_data[0x55a8ded89140]: pollfd[8] <- non_perf_event fd=4
...
This patch depends on "perf record: Fix way of handling non-perf-event
pollfds".

Patch "perf record: Fix way of handling non-perf-event pollfds" added a
generic way to handle non-perf-event file descriptors like evlist->ctl_fd.
Use it instead of handling evlist->ctl_fd separately.

Dummy events are used to provide sideband information like MMAP events that
are always needed even when main events are disabled. Add functions that
take that into account.

nit: I think it is better to prefer to name the argument when passing
constants, it can avoid errors if later constants are introduced, etc.
It can also be checked by compiler warnings. As this is limited to the
same file it is not hugely critical.

AUX area traces can produce too much data to record successfully or
analyze subsequently. Add another means to reduce data collection by
allowing multiple recording time ranges.
This is useful, for instance, in cases where a workload produces
predictably reproducible events in specific time ranges.
Today we only have perf record -D <msecs> to start at a specific region, or
some complicated approach using snapshot mode and external scripts sending
signals or using the fifos. But these approaches are difficult to set up
compared with simply having perf do it.
Extend perf record option -D/--delay option to specifying relative time
stamps for start stop controlled by perf with the right time offset, for
instance:
perf record -e intel_pt// -D 10-20,30-40
to record 10ms to 20ms into the trace and 30ms to 40ms.
Example:
The example workload is:
$ cat repeat-usleep.c
int usleep(useconds_t usec);
int usage(int ret, const char *msg)
{
if (msg)
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", msg);
fprintf(stderr, "Usage is: repeat-usleep <microseconds>\n");
return ret;
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
unsigned long usecs;
char *end_ptr;
if (argc != 2)
return usage(1, "Error: Wrong number of arguments!");
errno = 0;
usecs = strtoul(argv[1], &end_ptr, 0);
if (errno || *end_ptr || usecs > UINT_MAX)
return usage(1, "Error: Invalid argument!");
while (1) {
int ret = usleep(usecs);
if (ret & errno != EINTR)
return usage(1, "Error: usleep() failed!");
}
return 0;
}
$ perf record -e intel_pt//u --delay 10-20,40-70,110-160 -- ./repeat-usleep 500

A dlfilter is used to determine continuous data collection (timestamps
less than 1ms apart):
$ cat dlfilter-show-delays.c
static __u64 start_time;
static __u64 last_time;
int start(void **data, void *ctx)
{
printf("%-17s\t%-9s\t%-6s\n", " Time", " Duration", " Delay");
return 0;
}
int filter_event_early(void *data, const struct perf_dlfilter_sample *sample, void *ctx)
{
__u64 delta;
if (!sample->time)
return 1;
if (!last_time)
goto out;
delta = sample->time - last_time;
if (delta < 1000000)
goto out2;;
printf("%17.9f\t%9.1f\t%6.1f\n", start_time / 1000000000.0, (last_time - start_time) / 1000000.0, delta / 1000000.0);
out:
start_time = sample->time;
out2:
last_time = sample->time;
return 1;
}
int stop(void *data, void *ctx)
{
printf("%17.9f\t%9.1f\n", start_time / 1000000000.0, (last_time - start_time) / 1000000.0);
return 0;
}
The result shows the times roughly match the --delay option:
$ perf script --itrace=qb --dlfilter dlfilter-show-delays.so

Could you add a test like this in:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux.git/tree/tools/perf/tests/shell/record.sh?h=perf/core
If for no other reason than code coverage. It would also be
interesting to see what happens if floating point values are passed,
ranges are incomplete, etc. As the functionality is generic the event
could be cycles or instructions rather than intel_pt.
Thanks,
Ian

Just checking arguments does not add much value. Really it needs to
get information about what perf is doing. A simple way would be to
add debug messages specifically formatted to give that information.
Then a test could capture them and check they match what is expected.
For example, to test the -D option, print debug messages with
timestamps when events are enabled / disabled, when the workload
starts etc.
Maybe want a new pr_... for such messages like pr_test()
that print at, say, verbose level 3 or 4 (or 5)? Or a new
"verbose" option just for test messages?
