2024-02-01perf evsel: Rename get_states() to parse_task_states() and make it publicZe Gao5-114/+119
Since get_states() assumes the existence of libtraceevent, so move to where it should belong, i.e, util/trace-event-parse.c, and also rename it to parse_task_states(). Leave evsel_getstate() untouched as it fits well in the evsel category. Also make some necessary tweaks for python support, and get it verified with: perf test python.

This is because when re-opening the file and parsing the header, Perf expects that any file that has more than one event has the sample ID flag set. Perf record already sets the flag in a similar way when there is more than one event, so add the same logic to evlist__new_default(). evlist__new_default() is only currently used in tests, so I don't expect this change to have any other side effects. The other tests that use it don't save and re-open the file so don't hit this issue.

2024-01-25perf pmu: Treat the msr pmu as softwareIan Rogers1-1/+11
The msr PMU is a software one, meaning msr events may be grouped with events in a hardware context. As the msr PMU isn't marked as a software PMU by perf_pmu__is_software, groups with the msr PMU in are broken and the msr events placed in a different group. This may lead to multiplexing errors where a hardware event isn't counted while the msr event, such as tsc, is. Fix all of this by marking the msr PMU as software, which agrees with the driver.

The mem_events can be retrieved from the struct perf_pmu now. An ARCH specific perf_mem_events__ptr() is not required anymore. Remove all of them. The Intel hybrid has multiple mem-events-supported PMUs. But they share the same mem_events. Other ARCHs only support one mem-events-supported PMU. In the configuration, it's good enough to only configure the mem_events for one PMU. Add perf_mem_events_find_pmu() which returns the first mem-events-supported PMU. In the perf_mem_events__init(), the perf_pmus__scan() is not required anymore. It avoids checking the sysfs for every PMU on the system. Make the perf_mem_events__record_args() more generic. Remove the perf_mem_events__print_unsupport_hybrid(). Since pmu is added as a new parameter, rename perf_mem_events__ptr() to perf_pmu__mem_events_ptr().

2024-01-22perf util: Add helpers to parse task state string from libtraceeventZe Gao1-0/+112
Perf uses a hard coded string "RSDTtXZPI" to index the sched_switch prev_state field raw bitmask value. This works well except for when the kernel changes this string, in which case this will break again. Instead we add a new way to parse task state string from tracepoint print format already recorded by perf, which eliminates the further dependencies with this hardcode and unmaintainable macro, and this is exactly what libtraceevent[1] does for now. So we borrow the print flags parsing logic from libtraceevent[1]. And in get_states(), we walk the print arguments until the __print_flags() for the target state field is found, and use that to build the states string for future parsing.

2024-01-22perf dwarf-aux: Check allowed DWARF OpsNamhyung Kim1-4/+40
The DWARF location expression can be fairly complex and it'd be hard to match it with the condition correctly. So let's be conservative and only allow simple expressions. For now it just checks the first operation in the list. The following operations looks ok: * DW_OP_stack_value * DW_OP_deref_size * DW_OP_deref * DW_OP_piece To refuse complex (and unsupported) location expressions, add check_allowed_ops() to compare the rest of the list. It seems earlier result contained those unsupported expressions. For example, I found some local struct variable is placed like below. <2><43d1517>: Abbrev Number: 62 (DW_TAG_variable) <43d1518> DW_AT_location : 15 byte block: 91 50 93 8 91 78 93 4 93 84 8 91 68 93 4 (DW_OP_fbreg: -48; DW_OP_piece: 8; DW_OP_fbreg: -8; DW_OP_piece: 4; DW_OP_piece: 1028; DW_OP_fbreg: -24; DW_OP_piece: 4) Another example is something like this. 0057c8be ffffffffffffffff ffffffff812109f0 (base address) 0057c8ce ffffffff812112b5 ffffffff812112c8 (DW_OP_breg3 (rbx): 0; DW_OP_constu: 18446744073709551612; DW_OP_and; DW_OP_stack_value) It should refuse them.

2024-01-22perf annotate-data: Support stack variablesNamhyung Kim3-24/+93
Local variables are allocated in the stack and the location list should look like base register(s) and an offset. Extend the die_find_variable_by_reg() to handle the following expressions * DW_OP_breg{0..31} * DW_OP_bregx * DW_OP_fbreg Ususally DWARF subprogram entries have frame base information and use it to locate stack variable like below: <2><43d1575>: Abbrev Number: 62 (DW_TAG_variable) <43d1576> DW_AT_location : 2 byte block: 91 7c (DW_OP_fbreg: -4) <--- here <43d1579> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x2c00c9): i <43d157d> DW_AT_decl_file : 1 <43d157e> DW_AT_decl_line : 78 <43d157f> DW_AT_type : <0x43d19d7> I found some differences on saving the frame base between gcc and clang.

2024-01-22perf annotate-data: Support global variablesNamhyung Kim4-13/+92
Global variables are accessed using PC-relative address so it needs to be handled separately. The PC-rel addressing is detected by using DWARF_REG_PC. On x86, %rip register would be used. The address can be calculated using the ip and offset in the instruction. But it should start from the next instruction so add calculate_pcrel_addr() to do it properly. But global variables defined in a different file would only have a declaration which doesn't include a location list. So it first tries to get the type info using the address, and then looks up the variable declarations using name. The name of global variables should be get from the symbol table. The declaration would have the type info. So extend find_var_type() to take both address and name for global variables. The stat is now looks like: Annotate data type stats: total 294, ok 153 (52.0%), bad 141 (48.0%) ----------------------------------------------------------- 30 : no_sym 32 : no_mem_ops 61 : no_var 10 : no_typeinfo 8 : bad_offset Reviewed-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240117062657.985479-7-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>

Extend find_data_type_die() to find data type from PC-relative address using die_find_variable_by_addr(). Users need to pass the address for the (global) variable. The offset for the variable should be updated after finding the type because the offset in the instruction is just to calcuate the address for the variable. So it changed to pass a pointer to offset and renamed it to 'poffset'. First it searches variables in the CU DIE as it's likely that the global variables are defined in the file level. And then it iterates the scope DIEs to find a local (static) variable.

2024-01-22perf annotate-data: Add stack operation pseudo typeNamhyung Kim2-0/+27
A typical function prologue and epilogue include multiple stack operations to save and restore the current value of registers. On x86, it looks like below: push r15 push r14 push r13 push r12 ... pop r12 pop r13 pop r14 pop r15 ret As these all touches the stack memory region, chances are high that they appear in a memory profile data. But these are not used for any real purpose yet so it'd return no types. One of my profile type shows that non neglible portion of data came from the stack operations.

For simplicity it prints the number of samples per field for now. But it should be easy to show the overhead percentage instead. The number at the outer struct is a sum of the numbers of the inner members. For example, struct cfs_rq got total 13 samples, and 2 came from the load (struct load_weight) and 1 from h_nr_running. Similarly, the struct load_weight got total 2 samples and they all came from the weight field. I've added two new flags in the symbol_conf for this. The annotate_data_member is to get the members of the type. This is also needed for perf report with typeoff sort key. The annotate_data_sample is to update sample stats for each offset and used only in annotate. Currently it only support stdio output mode, TUI support can be added later.
