[PATCH -tip v5 0/5] perf script: add BTS analysis features

[PATCH -tip v5 0/5] perf script: add BTS analysis features

[Akihiro Nagai]

Hi Frederic, David,

This patch series adds the functions to analyze BTS logs to perf-script and,
makes perf-script more informative version 5.
The patches add the following functions.
 - Unify the expression to "[unknown]"
 - Fix BTS record header to resolve DSOs and symbols of user-space
 - Resolve DSOs and symbols for BTS's branch_from addresses
 - Show the offset of symbols with the 'symoff' field specifier.
 - Resolve the real path of [kernel.kallsym] using
   '--show-kernel-path' option.

Usage:
First, get the BTS log with the following command.
# perf record -e branches:u -c 1 -d <command>

Second, analyze that trace data.
# perf script -f ip,addr,sym,symoff,dso [--show-kernel-path]
This command's output format is:
<branch_from addr> <branch_from function+offset> <branch_from DSO> => <branch_to addr> <branch_to function+offset> <branch_to DSO> 

Output sample:
# perf record -e branches:u -c 1 -d ls
[snip]
# perf script -f ip,addr,sym,dso,symoff --show-kernel-path
[snip]
      3430c21399 __libc_start_main+0xe9 (/lib64/libc-2.14.so)               => 402c1c main+0x0             (/root/bin/ls)
          402c41 main+0x25              (/root/bin/ls)                      => 40b390 set_program_name+0x0 (/root/bin/ls)
ffffffff814ac5ed irq_return+0x0         (/lib/modules/3.2.0+/build/vmlinux) => 40b390 set_program_name+0x0 (/root/bin/ls)
          40b39e set_program_name+0xe   (/root/bin/ls)                      => 401e20 strrchr@plt+0x0      (/root/bin/ls)
          401e20 strrchr@plt+0x0        (/root/bin/ls)                      => 401e26 strrchr@plt+0x6      (/root/bin/ls)
          401e2b strrchr@plt+0xb        (/root/bin/ls)                      => 401b80 _init+0x18           (/root/bin/ls)
          401b86 _init+0x1e             (/root/bin/ls)                      => 3430813850 _dl_runtime_resolve+0x0 (/lib64/ld-2.14.so)
[snip]

It shows the tracee application's execution path.


Future Works:
 - add source code path field, line number field ...etc.
 - add record/report script to use easily and, show human-friendly output.
 - filtering kernel functions using scripts

Changes in v5:
 - Use fprintf() instead of printf() in struct map/symbol's functions
   to print something.
 - Abolish using 'self' in function's paramater
   e.g. map__print_dsoname(self) => map__fprintf_dsoname(map, fp)
 - Change the specifier to print symbol_offset 'offs' to 'symoff'
 - Change the output format "<branch_to> <branch_from>" to
   "<branch_from> => <branch_to>"

Changes in v4:
 - add check routine to set correct perf_sample's header.

Changes in v3:
 - remove the bug fix patch already fixed.
 - unify the "[unknown]" expressions in perf-script.
 - fix perf_event_header of BTS events.
 - fix patch's descriptions

Changes in v2:
 - add a bug fix patch that prints correct IP address
 - output the magic word "(unknown)" as symbol name when perf-script can't
   resolve symbols.
 - output "[unknown]" as DSO name when perf-script can't resolve DSO path.
 - change the way to output offset of symbols from '--show-symbol-offset' to
   'offs' field.
 - clean up codes.

Thanks,

---

[PATCH -tip v5 1/5] perf-script: unify the expressions indicate "unknown"

[Akihiro Nagai]

perf-script uses various expressions to indicate "unknown".
It is unfriendly for user scripts to parse it. So, this patch unifies
the expressions to "[unknown]".

Changes in v5:
 - Use fprintf() instead of printf() in struct map/symbol's functions
   to print something.
 - Abolish using 'self' in function's paramater

Changes in v3:
 - unify all expressions to [unknown]

Changes in v2:
 - add this patch

[PATCH -tip v5 3/5] perf script: print branch_from and branch_to of BTS events

[Akihiro Nagai]

BTS records branch_from_addr and branch_to_addr in IP and ADDR field in perf_sample.
This patch enables to print them in following format,

<from_addr> <from_symbol> (<from_dso>) => <to_addr> <to_symbol> (<to_dso>)

Sample:
# perf script -f ip,addr,dso,sym
 ffffffff814675d2 irq_return ([kernel.kallsyms]) => 3f03e016b0    _start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so)

[PATCH -tip v5 4/5] perf script: add the offset field specifier

[Akihiro Nagai]

Add the offset field specifier 'symoff' to show the offset from
the symbols in the output of perf-script. We can get the more
detailed address information.

Output sample:
# perf script -f ip,addr,sym,symoff
ffffffff81467612 irq_return+0x0 => 301ec016b0 _start+0x0
ffffffff81467612 irq_return+0x0 => 301ec016b0 _start+0x0
      301ec016b3 _start+0x3     => 301ec04b70 _dl_start+0x0
ffffffff81467612 irq_return+0x0 => 301ec04b70 _dl_start+0x0
ffffffff81467612 irq_return+0x0 => 301ec04b96 _dl_start+0x26
ffffffff81467612 irq_return+0x0 => 301ec04b9d _dl_start+0x2d
      301ec04beb _dl_start+0x7b => 301ec04c0d _dl_start+0x9d
      301ec04c11 _dl_start+0xa1 => 301ec04bf0 _dl_start+0x80
[snip]

Changes in v5:
 - rename offset specifier 'offs' to 'symoff'

Changes in v2:
 - change the way to output offset from '--show-symbol-offset' to
   'offs' field.
 - clean up codes.

[PATCH -tip v5 5/5] perf script: add option resolving vmlinux path

[Akihiro Nagai]

Add the option get the path of [kernel.kallsyms].
Specify '--show-kernel-path' option to use this function.
This patch enables other applications to use this output easily.

Without --show-kernel-path  option

# perf script -f ip,dso
ffffffff81467612 irq_return ([kernel.kallsyms])
ffffffff81467612 irq_return ([kernel.kallsyms])
    7f24fc02a6b3 _start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so)
[snip]

With --show-kernel-path option

# perf script -f ip,dso --show-kernel-path
ffffffff81467612 irq_return (/lib/modules/3.2.0+/build/vmlinux)
ffffffff81467612 irq_return (/lib/modules/3.2.0+/build/vmlinux)
    7f24fc02a6b3 _start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so)

Why not key off of the from? If its a jump from userspace its a user
event, its a jump from kernel space its a kernel event?

perf script: Unify the expressions indicating "unknown"

The perf script command uses various expressions to indicate "unknown".

It is unfriendly for user scripts to parse it. So, this patch unifies
the expressions to "[unknown]".

perf script: Print branch_from and branch_to of BTS events

BTS records branch_from_addr and branch_to_addr in IP and ADDR field in perf_sample.
This patch enables to print them in following format,

<from_addr> <from_symbol> (<from_dso>) => <to_addr> <to_symbol> (<to_dso>)

Sample:
 ffffffff814675d2 irq_return ([kernel.kallsyms]) => 3f03e016b0    _start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so)
 ffffffff814675d2 irq_return ([kernel.kallsyms]) => 3f03e016b0    _start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so)
       3f03e016b3     _start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so) => 3f03e04b80 _dl_start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so)
 ffffffff814675d2 irq_return ([kernel.kallsyms]) => 3f03e04b80 _dl_start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so)
 ffffffff814675d2 irq_return ([kernel.kallsyms]) => 3f03e04ba6 _dl_start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so)
 ffffffff814675d2 irq_return ([kernel.kallsyms]) => 3f03e04bad _dl_start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so)
       3f03e04bfb  _dl_start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so) => 3f03e04c1d _dl_start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so)

perf script: Add the offset field specifier

Add the offset field specifier 'symoff' to show the offset from
the symbols in the output of perf-script. We can get the more
detailed address information.

Output sample:
ffffffff81467612 irq_return+0x0 => 301ec016b0 _start+0x0
ffffffff81467612 irq_return+0x0 => 301ec016b0 _start+0x0
      301ec016b3 _start+0x3     => 301ec04b70 _dl_start+0x0
ffffffff81467612 irq_return+0x0 => 301ec04b70 _dl_start+0x0
ffffffff81467612 irq_return+0x0 => 301ec04b96 _dl_start+0x26
ffffffff81467612 irq_return+0x0 => 301ec04b9d _dl_start+0x2d
      301ec04beb _dl_start+0x7b => 301ec04c0d _dl_start+0x9d
      301ec04c11 _dl_start+0xa1 => 301ec04bf0 _dl_start+0x80

Of course, originally, perf does that. And, in those cases,
BTS records the both addresses of kernel and user in one
perf_sample on branches from kernel to user. Current perf
sets PERF_RECORD_MISC_KERNEL to all BTS events, and
perf-script doesn't resolve symbols and DSOs about the
user-space address, because it is a kernel event. So, to
solve both kernel and user symbols on an event, I had to
add this change.

Thank you,

I don't think it does.

Sorry, I don't get this.

It doesn't, it does something far more stupid.. it sets the state to
wherever we were when the BTS overflow interrupt happens. If that was in
kernel space, we mark all of them as in-kernel, if that was in
user-space we mark all of then in-user.

Well, that's a perf-script problem, not something you should change the
kernel for.

So how about something like this?

Normally, perf does. However, BTS (intel_pmu_drain_bts_buffer) uses
local-defined and not-initialized pt_regs to decide PERF_RECORD_MISC_KERNEL or USER.
Accordingly, almost all BTS events are set PERF_RECORD_MISC_KERNEL.

BTW, I think it's a bug that uses not-initialized pt_regs.
So, it needs initialize:
-    struct pt_regs regs;
+    struct pt_regs regs = {0};

Or, intel_pmu_drain_bts_buffer() get pt_regs from a function argument.
- int intel_pmu_drain_bts_buffer(void)
+ int intel_pmu_drain_bts_buffer(struct pt_regs *regs)

Exactly. I'm going to fix perf-script.

It looks good. I think it's correct semantically to set
PERF_RECORD_MISC_KERNEL or USER by the from-address.
However, this patch needs perf-script fix too.
I'm going to send next patches including this patch.

Thank you,
