perf tools: Add kmod_path__parse function Provides united way of parsing kernel module path into several components. The new kmod_path__parse function and few defines: int __kmod_path__parse(struct kmod_path *m, const char *path, bool alloc_name, bool alloc_ext); #define kmod_path__parse(__m, __p) __kmod_path__parse(__m, __p, false, false) #define kmod_path__parse_name(__m, __p) __kmod_path__parse(__m, __p, true , false) #define kmod_path__parse_ext(__m, __p) __kmod_path__parse(__m, __p, false, true) parse kernel module @path and updates @m argument like: @comp - true if @path contains supported compression suffix, false otherwise @kmod - true if @path contains '.ko' suffix in right position, false otherwise @name - if (@alloc_name && @kmod) is true, it contains strdup-ed base name of the kernel module without suffixes, otherwise strudup-ed base name of @path @ext - if (@alloc_ext && @comp) is true, it contains strdup-ed string the compression suffix It returns 0 if there's no strdup error, -ENOMEM otherwise.

perf symbols: Fix dso lookup by long name and missing buildids Commit 4598a0a6d22f ("perf symbols: Improve DSO long names lookup speed with rbtree") Added a tree to lookup dsos by long name. That tree gets corrupted whenever a dso long name is changed because the tree is not updated. One effect of that is buildid-list does not work with the 'with-hits' option because dso lookup fails and results in two structs for the same dso. The first has the buildid but no hits, the second has hits but no buildid. e.g. Before: $ tools/perf/perf record ls arch certs CREDITS Documentation firmware include ipc Kconfig lib Makefile net REPORTING-BUGS scripts sound usr block COPYING crypto drivers fs init Kbuild kernel MAINTAINERS mm README samples security tools virt [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.012 MB perf.data (11 samples) ] $ tools/perf/perf buildid-list 574da826c66538a8d9060d393a8866289bd06005 [kernel.kallsyms] 30c94dc66a1fe95180c3d68d2b89e576d5ae213c /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so $ tools/perf/perf buildid-list -H 574da826c66538a8d9060d393a8866289bd06005 [kernel.kallsyms] 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so After: $ tools/perf/perf buildid-list -H 574da826c66538a8d9060d393a8866289bd06005 [kernel.kallsyms] 30c94dc66a1fe95180c3d68d2b89e576d5ae213c /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so The fix is to record the root of the tree on the dso so that dso__set_long_name() can update the tree when the long name changes.

perf symbols: Improve DSO long names lookup speed with rbtree With workload that spawns and destroys many threads and processes, it was found that perf-mem could took a long time to post-process the perf data after the target workload had completed its operation. The performance bottleneck was found to be the lookup and insertion of the new DSO structures (thousands of them in this case). In a dual-socket Ivy-Bridge E7-4890 v2 machine (30-core, 60-thread), the perf profile below shows what perf was doing after the profiled AIM7 shared workload completed: - 83.94% perf libc-2.11.3.so [.] __strcmp_sse42 - __strcmp_sse42 - 99.82% map__new machine__process_mmap_event perf_session_deliver_event perf_session__process_event __perf_session__process_events cmd_record cmd_mem run_builtin main __libc_start_main - 13.17% perf perf [.] __dsos__findnew __dsos__findnew map__new machine__process_mmap_event perf_session_deliver_event perf_session__process_event __perf_session__process_events cmd_record cmd_mem run_builtin main __libc_start_main So about 97% of CPU times were spent in the map__new() function trying to insert new DSO entry into the DSO linked list. The whole post-processing step took about 9 minutes. The DSO structures are currently searched linearly. So the total processing time will be proportional to n^2. To overcome this performance problem, the DSO code is modified to also put the DSO structures in a RB tree sorted by its long name in additional to being in a simple linked list. With this change, the processing time will become proportional to n*log(n) which will be much quicker for large n. However, the short name will still be searched using the old linear searching method. With that patch in place, the same perf-mem post-processing step took less than 30 seconds to complete.

perf symbols: Fix dso lookup by long name and missing buildids Commit 4598a0a6d22f ("perf symbols: Improve DSO long names lookup speed with rbtree") Added a tree to lookup dsos by long name.

One effect of that is buildid-list does not work with the 'with-hits' option because dso lookup fails and results in two structs for the same dso.

perf symbols: Fix vdso list searching When "perf record" was used on a large machine with a lot of CPUs, the perf post-processing time (the time after the workload was done until the perf command itself exited) could take a lot of minutes and even hours depending on how large the resulting perf.data file was. While running AIM7 1500-user high_systime workload on a 80-core x86-64 system with a 3.9 kernel (with only the -s -a options used), the workload itself took about 2 minutes to run and the perf.data file had a size of 1108.746 MB. However, the post-processing step took more than 10 minutes. With a gprof-profiled perf binary, the time spent by perf was as follows: % cumulative self self total time seconds seconds calls s/call s/call name 96.90 822.10 822.10 192156 0.00 0.00 dsos__find 0.81 828.96 6.86 172089958 0.00 0.00 rb_next 0.41 832.44 3.48 48539289 0.00 0.00 rb_erase So 97% (822 seconds) of the time was spent in a single dsos_find() function.

This problem is due to the fact that there are 2 types of name in the dso entry - short name and long name. The initial dso__new() adds "[vdso]" to both the short and long names. After that, vdso__dso_findnew() modifies the long name to something like /tmp/perf-vdso.so-NoXkDj. The dsos__find() function only compares the long name. As a result, the same vdso entry is duplicated many time in the dso list. This bug increases memory consumption as well as slows the symbol processing time to a crawl. To resolve this problem, the dsos__find() function interface was modified to enable searching either the long name or the short name. The vdso__dso_findnew() will now search only the short name while the other call sites search for the long name as before. With this change, the cpu time of perf was reduced from 848.38s to 15.77s and dsos__find() only accounted for 0.06% of the total time. 0.06 15.73 0.01 192151 0.00 0.00 dsos__find Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hp.com> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: "Chandramouleeswaran, Aswin" <aswin@hp.com> Cc: "Norton, Scott J" <scott.norton@hp.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1368110568-64714-1-git-send-email-Waiman.Long@hp.com [ replaced TRUE/FALSE with stdbool.h equivalents, fixing builds where those macros are not present (NO_LIBPYTHON=1 NO_LIBPERL=1), fix from Jiri Olsa ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

As a result, the same vdso entry is duplicated many time in the dso list. This bug increases memory consumption as well as slows the symbol processing time to a crawl. To resolve this problem, the dsos__find() function interface was modified to enable searching either the long name or the short name. The vdso__dso_findnew() will now search only the short name while the other call sites search for the long name as before. With this change, the cpu time of perf was reduced from 848.38s to 15.77s and dsos__find() only accounted for 0.06% of the total time. 0.06 15.73 0.01 192151 0.00 0.00 dsos__find Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hp.com> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: "Chandramouleeswaran, Aswin" <aswin@hp.com> Cc: "Norton, Scott J" <scott.norton@hp.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1368110568-64714-1-git-send-email-Waiman.Long@hp.com [ replaced TRUE/FALSE with stdbool.h equivalents, fixing builds where those macros are not present (NO_LIBPYTHON=1 NO_LIBPERL=1), fix from Jiri Olsa ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

perf tools: Fix __dsos__addnew to put dso after adding it to the list __dsos__addnew should drop the constructor reference to dso after adding it to the list, because __dsos__add() will get a reference that will be kept while it is in the list. This fixes DSO leaks when entries are removed to the list and the refcount never gets to zero.

perf symbols: Save DSO loading errno to better report errors Before, when some problem happened while trying to load the kernel symtab, 'perf top' would show: ┌─Warning:───────────────────────────┐ │The vmlinux file can't be used. │ │Kernel samples will not be resolved.│ │ │ │ │ │Press any key... │ └────────────────────────────────────┘ Now, it reports: # perf top --vmlinux /dev/null ┌─Warning:───────────────────────────────────────────┐ │The /tmp/passwd file can't be used: Invalid ELF file│ │Kernel samples will not be resolved. │ │ │ │ │ │Press any key... │ └────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ This is possible because we now register the reason for not being able to load the symtab in the dso->load_errno member, and provide a dso__strerror_load() routine to format this error into a strerror like string with a short reason for the error while loading. That can be just forwarding the dso__strerror_load() call to strerror_r(), or, for a separate errno range providing a custom message.
