* perf sched: Add sched latency profilingFrederic Weisbecker2009-09-131-11/+285
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the -l --latency option that reports statistics about the scheduler latencies. For now, the latencies are measured in the following sequence scope: - task A is sleeping (D or S state) - task B wakes up A ^ | | latency timeframe | | v - task A is scheduled in Start by recording every scheduler events: perf record -e sched:* and then fetch the results: perf sched -l Tasks count total avg max migration/0 2 39849 19924 28826 ksoftirqd/0 7 756383 108054 373014 migration/1 5 45391 9078 10452 ksoftirqd/1 2 399055 199527 359130 events/0 8 4780110 597513 4500250 events/1 9 6353057 705895 2986012 kblockd/0 42 37805097 900121 5077684 The snapshot are in nanoseconds. - Count: number of snapshots taken for the given task - Total: total latencies in nanosec - Avg : average of latency between wake up and sched in - Max : max snapshot latency Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* perf sched: Make it easier to plug in new sub profilersFrederic Weisbecker2009-09-131-78/+165
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Create a sched event structure of handlers in which various sched events reader can plug their own callbacks. This makes easier the addition of new perf sched sub commands.

* perf sched: Fix bad event alignmentFrederic Weisbecker2009-09-131-25/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | perf sched raises the following error when it meets a sched switch event: perf: builtin-sched.c:286: register_pid: Assertion `!(pid >= 65536)' failed. Abandon Currently in x86-64, the sched switch events have a hole in the middle of the structure: u16 common_type; u8 common_flags; u8 common_preempt_count; u32 common_pid; u32 common_tgid; char prev_comm[16]; u32 prev_pid; u32 prev_prio; <--- there u64 prev_state; char next_comm[16]; u32 next_pid; u32 next_prio; Gcc inserts a 4 bytes hole there for prev_state to be u64 aligned. And the events are exported to userspace with this hole. But in userspace, from perf sched, we fetch it using a structure that has a new field in the beginning: u32 size. This is because our trace is exported with its size as a field. But now that we have this new field, the hole in the middle disappears because it makes prev_state becoming well aligned. And since we are using a pointer to the raw trace using this struct, instead of reading prev_state, we are reading the hole. We could fix it by keeping the size seperate from the struct but actually there a lot of other potential problems: some fields may be saved as long in a 64 bits system and later read as long in a 32 bits system. Also this direct cast doesn't care about the endianness differences between the host traced machine and the machine in which we do the post processing. So instead of using such dangerous direct casts, fetch the values using the trace parsing API that already takes care of all these problems.

* perf sched: Import schedbench.cIngo Molnar2009-09-131-25/+817
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Import the schedbench.c tool that i wrote some time ago to simulate scheduler behavior but never finished. It's a good basis for perf sched nevertheless. Most of its guts are not hooked up to the perf event loop yet - that will be done in the patches to come.

* perf: Add 'perf sched' toolIngo Molnar2009-09-131-0/+297
This turn-key tool allows scheduler measurements to be conducted and the results be displayed numerically. First baby step towards that goal: clone the new command off of perf trace. Fix a few other details along the way: - add (minimal) perf trace documentation - reorder a few places - list perf trace in the mainporcelain list as well as it's a very useful utility.
