Paolo Bonzini 6745d8ea82 perf script: Add stackcollapse.py script
Add stackcollapse.py script as an example of parsing call chains, and
also of using optparse to access command line options.

The flame graph tools include a set of scripts that parse output from
various tools (including "perf script"), remove the offsets in the
function and collapse each stack to a single line.  The website also
says "perf report could have a report style [...] that output folded
stacks directly, obviating the need for stackcollapse-perf.pl", so here
it is.

This script is a Python rewrite of stackcollapse-perf.pl, using the perf
scripting interface to access the perf data directly from Python.

Chris Phlipot 3521f3bc9d perf script: Update export-to-postgresql to support callchain export
Update the export-to-postgresql.py to support the newly introduced
callchain export.

callchains are added into the existing call_paths table and can now
be associated with samples when the "callpaths" commandline option
is used with the script.

Ex.:

  $ perf script -s export-to-postgresql.py example_db all callchains

Includes the following changes to enable callchain export via the python export
APIs:

- Add the "callchains" commandline option, which is used to enable
  callchain export by setting the perf_db_export_callchains global
- Add perf_db_export_callchains checks for call_path table creation
  and population.
- Add call_path_id to samples_table to conform with the new API

example usage and output using a small test app:

  test_app.c:

	volatile int x = 0;
	void inc_x_loop()
	{
		int i;
		for(i=0; i<100000000; i++)
			x++;
	}

	void a()
	{
		inc_x_loop();
	}

	void b()
	{
		inc_x_loop();
	}

	int main()
	{
		a();
		b();
		return 0;
	}

example usage:

  $ gcc -g -O0 test_app.c
  $ perf record --call-graph=dwarf ./a.out
  [ perf record: Woken up 77 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 19.373 MB perf.data (2404 samples) ]

  $ perf script -s scripts/python/export-to-postgresql.py
	example_db all callchains

  $ psql example_db

  example_db=#
  SELECT
  (SELECT name FROM symbols WHERE id = cps.symbol_id) as symbol,
  (SELECT name FROM symbols WHERE id =
	(SELECT symbol_id from call_paths where id = cps.parent_id))
	as parent_symbol,
  sum(period) as event_count
  FROM samples join call_paths as cps on call_path_id = cps.id
  GROUP BY cps.id,evsel_id
  ORDER BY event_count DESC
  LIMIT 5;

        symbol      |      parent_symbol       | event_count
  ------------------+--------------------------+-------------
   inc_x_loop       | a                        |   734250982
   inc_x_loop       | b                        |   731028057
   unknown          | unknown                  |     1335858
   task_tick_fair   | scheduler_tick           |     1238842
   update_wall_time | tick_do_update_jiffies64 |      650373
  (5 rows)

The above data shows total "self time" in cycles for each call path that was
sampled. It is intended to demonstrate how it accounts separately for the two
ways to reach the "inc_x_loop" function(via "a" and "b").  Recursive common
table expressions can be used as well to get cumulative time spent in a
function as well, but that is beyond the scope of this basic example.

Chris Phlipot d6632dd59b perf script: Fix postgresql ubuntu install instructions
The current instructions for setting up an Ubuntu system for using the
export-to-postgresql.py script are incorrect.

The instructions in the script have been updated to work on newer
versions of ubuntu.

-Add missing dependencies to apt-get command:
    python-pyside.qtsql, libqt4-sql-psql
-Add '-s' option to createuser command to force the user to be a
    superuser since the command doesn't prompt as indicated in the
    current instructions.

Tested on: Ubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu 16.04(beta)

Taeung Song b416e204f8 perf python scripting: Append examples to err msg about audit-libs-python
To print syscall names, the audit-libs-python package is required.. If
not installed, it prints this error string:

    # perf script syscall-counts
    Install the audit-libs-python package to get syscall names.

But the package name is different in Ubuntu, mention that in the error
message, similar to a error message of util/trace-event-scripting.c:

    # perf script syscall-counts
    Install the audit-libs-python package to get syscall names.
    For example:
      # apt-get install python-audit (Ubuntu)
      # yum install audit-libs-python (Fedora)
      etc.

Jiri Olsa b8a1962d17 perf script: Add stat-cpi.py script
Adding stat-cpi.py as an example of how to do stat scripting.

It computes the CPI metrics from cycles and instructions events.

The CPI is based performance metric showing the Cycles Per Instructions
ratio, which helps to identify cycles-hungry code.

Following stat record/report/script combinations could be used:

- get CPI for given workload

    $ perf stat -e cycles,instructions record ls

    SNIP

     Performance counter stats for 'ls':

Tony Jones 84e5d89a77 perf scripts python: Add new compaction-times script
This patch creates a new script (compaction-times) to report time
spent in mm compaction. It is possible to report times in nanoseconds
(default) or microseconds (-u).

The option -p will break down results by process id, -pv will further
decompose by each compaction entry/exit.

For each compaction entry/exit what is reported is controlled by the
options:

  -t   report only timing
  -m   report migration stats
  -ms  report migration scanner stats
  -fs  report free scanner stats

The default is to report all.

Entries may be further filtered by pid, pid-range or comm (regex).

The script is useful when analysing workloads that compact memory. The
most common example will be THP allocations on systems with a lot of
uptime that has fragmented memory.

This is an example of using the script to analyse a thpscale from
mmtests which deliberately fragments memory and allocates THP in 4
separate threads

  # Recording step, one of the following;
  $ perf record -e 'compaction:mm_compaction_*' ./workload
  # or:
  $ perf script record compaction-times

    #define bool _Bool

Looks like the failure is caused by arm64 uapi/asm/sigcontext.h, which
includes linux/types.h while other archs not.

Current perl consider this problem:

http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/commit/bd31be4baa3ee68abdb92c0db3200efe0fad903b

However there are users which use old version of perl.

This patch includes stdbool.h before Context.xs and define HAS_BOOL to
prevent perl'e headers define its own 'bool'. Code is learn from perl's
git tree.

Adrian Hunter 2987e32f75 perf script: Add Python script to export to postgresql
Add a Python script to export to a postgresql database.

The script requires the Python pyside module and the Qt PostgreSQL
driver.  The packages needed are probably named "python-pyside" and
"libqt4-sql-psql"

The caller of the script must be able to create postgresql databases.

The script takes the database name as a parameter.  The database and
database tables are created.  Data is written to flat files which are
then imported using SQL COPY FROM.

Example:

  $ perf record ls
  ...
  $ perf script report export-to-postgresql lsdb

My notes (which may be out-of-date) on setting up postgresql so you can
create databases:

fedora:

        $ sudo yum install postgresql postgresql-server python-pyside qt-postgresql
        $ sudo su - postgres -c initdb
        $ sudo service postgresql start
        $ sudo su - postgres
        $ createuser -s <your username>

I used the the unix user name in createuser.

If it fails, try createuser without -s and answer the following question
to allow your user to create tables:

        Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) y

ubuntu:

        $ sudo apt-get install postgresql
        $ sudo su - postgres
        $ createuser <your username>
        Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) y

You may want to disable automatic startup.  One way is to edit
/etc/postgresql/9.3/main/start.conf.  Another is to disable the init
script e.g. sudo update-rc.d postgresql disable

Feng Tang 0076d546b4 perf scripts python: Add event_analyzing_sample.py as a sample for general event handling
Currently only trace point events are supported in perf/python script,
the first 3 patches of this serie add the support for all types of
events. This script is just a simple sample to show how to gather the
basic information of the events and analyze them.

This script will create one object for each event sample and insert them
into a table in a database, then leverage the simple SQL commands to
sort/group them. User can modify or write their brand new functions
according to their specific requirment.

Here is the sample of how to use the script:

 $ perf record -a tree
 $ perf script -s process_event.py

There is 100 records in gen_events table
Statistics about the general events grouped by thread/symbol/dso:

classes based on requriements.

Neil Horman 63e03724b5 perf script: Add drop monitor script
A while back I created the dropmonitor protocol, which allowed users to get
reports of dropped frames communicated to them via a netlink socket.

While useful, several people have now asked that I integrate the ability
to do drop monitoring with perf, so they don't have to run additional
tools.

This patch adds a drop monitor script to the perf suite, and provides
the same output that the netlink socket does.

Koki Sanagi 359d5106a2 perf: Add a script to show packets processing
Add a perf script which shows packets processing and processed
time. It helps us to investigate networking or network devices.

If you want to use it, install perf and record perf.data like
following.

If you set script, perf gathers records until it ends.
If not, you must Ctrl-C to stop recording.

And if you want a report from record,

If you use some options, you can limit the output.
Option is below.

tx: show only tx packets processing
rx: show only rx packets processing
dev=: show processing on this device
debug: work with debug mode. It shows buffer status.

For example, if you want to show received packets processing
associated with eth4,

106133.171439sec cpu=0
  irq_entry(+0.000msec irq=24:eth4)
         |
  softirq_entry(+0.006msec)
         |
         |---netif_receive_skb(+0.010msec skb=f2d15900 len=100)
         |            |
         |      skb_copy_datagram_iovec(+0.039msec 10291::10291)
         |
  napi_poll_exit(+0.022msec eth4)

This perf script helps us to analyze the processing time of a
transmit/receive sequence.

Make the perf migration GUI generic so that it can be reused for
other kinds of trace painting. No more notion of CPUs or runqueue
from the GUI class, it's now used as a library by the trace parser.

Frederic Weisbecker 70d815a3de perf, sched migration: Make it vertically scrollable
With scheduler traces covering more than two cpus, rectangles
of the CPUs 3 and more are not visibles.

This makes the vertical navigation scrollable so that all of the
CPUs rectangles are available.

We also want to be able to zoom vertically, so that we can fit at
best the screen with CPU rectangles, but that's for later.

Nikhil Rao 0cddf56aa8 perf, sched migration: Parameterize cpu height and spacing
Without vertical zoom, it is not possible to see all CPUs in a trace
taken on a larger machine. This patch parameterizes the height and
spacing of CPUs so that you can fit more cpus into the screen.

Ideally we should dynamically size/space the CPU rectangles with some
minimum threshold. Until then, this patch is a stop-gap.

Frederic Weisbecker 749e507411 perf, sched migration: Handle ignored migrate out events
Migrate out events may happen on tasks that are not in the
runqueue, for example this is the case for tasks that are
sleeping. In this case, we don't want to log the migrate out
event in the source runqueue because the task is not eventually
in the runqueue and we have already logged its sleep event.

This fixes timeslices that spuriously propagate a sleep event
from the previous timeslice.
