2019-04-01perf record: Implement --mmap-flush=<number> optionAlexey Budankov
Implement a --mmap-flush option that specifies minimal number of bytes that is extracted from mmaped kernel buffer to store into a trace. The default option value is 1 byte what means every time trace writing thread finds some new data in the mmaped buffer the data is extracted, possibly compressed and written to a trace. $ tools/perf/perf record --mmap-flush 1024 -e cycles -- matrix.gcc $ tools/perf/perf record --aio --mmap-flush 1K -e cycles -- matrix.gcc The option is independent from -z setting, doesn't vary with compression level and can serve two purposes. The first purpose is to increase the compression ratio of a trace data. Larger data chunks are compressed more effectively so the implemented option allows specifying data chunk size to compress. Also at some cases executing more write syscalls with smaller data size can take longer than executing less write syscalls with bigger data size due to syscall overhead so extracting bigger data chunks specified by the option value could additionally decrease runtime overhead. The second purpose is to avoid self monitoring live-lock issue in system wide (-a) profiling mode. Profiling in system wide mode with compression (-a -z) can additionally induce data into the kernel buffers along with the data from monitored processes. If performance data rate and volume from the monitored processes is high then trace streaming and compression activity in the tool is also high. High tool process activity can lead to subtle live-lock effect when compression of single new byte from some of mmaped kernel buffer leads to generation of the next single byte at some mmaped buffer. So perf tool process ends up in endless self monitoring. Implemented synch parameter is the mean to force data move independently from the specified flush threshold value. Despite the provided flush value the tool needs capability to unconditionally drain memory buffers, at least in the end of the collection. Committer testing: Running with the default value, i.e. as soon as there is something to read go on consuming, we first write the synthesized events, small chunks of about 128 bytes: # perf trace -m 2048 --call-graph dwarf -e write -- perf record <SNIP> 101.142 ( 0.004 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x210db60, count: 120) = 120 __libc_write (/usr/lib64/libpthread-2.28.so) ion (/home/acme/bin/perf) record__write (inlined) process_synthesized_event (/home/acme/bin/perf) perf_tool__process_synth_event (inlined) perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events (/home/acme/bin/perf) Then we move to reading the mmap buffers consuming the events put there by the kernel perf infrastructure: 107.561 ( 0.005 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7f1befc02000, count: 336) = 336 __libc_write (/usr/lib64/libpthread-2.28.so) ion (/home/acme/bin/perf) record__write (inlined) record__pushfn (/home/acme/bin/perf) perf_mmap__push (/home/acme/bin/perf) record__mmap_read_evlist (inlined) record__mmap_read_all (inlined) __cmd_record (inlined) cmd_record (/home/acme/bin/perf) 12919.953 ( 0.136 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7f1befc83150, count: 184984) = 184984 <SNIP same backtrace as in the 107.561 timestamp> 12920.094 ( 0.155 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7f1befc02150, count: 261816) = 261816 <SNIP same backtrace as in the 107.561 timestamp> 12920.253 ( 0.093 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7f1befb81120, count: 170832) = 170832 <SNIP same backtrace as in the 107.561 timestamp> If we limit it to write only when more than 16MB are available for reading, it throttles that to a quarter of the --mmap-pages set for 'perf record', which by default get to 528384 bytes, found out using 'record -v': mmap flush: 132096 mmap size 528384B With that in place all the writes coming from record__mmap_read_evlist(), i.e. from the mmap buffers setup by the kernel perf infrastructure were at least 132096 bytes long.

2018-12-17perf record: Extend trace writing to multi AIOAlexey Budankov
Multi AIO trace writing allows caching more kernel data into userspace memory postponing trace writing for the sake of overall profiling data thruput increase. It could be seen as kernel data buffer extension into userspace memory. With an --aio option value different from 0 (default value is 1) the tool has capability to cache more and more data into user space along with delegating spill to AIO. That allows avoiding to suspend at record__aio_sync() between calls of record__mmap_read_evlist() and increases profiling data thruput at the cost of userspace memory.

Usage: perf_mmap__read_init() while(event = perf_mmap__read_event()) { //process the event perf_mmap__consume() } perf_mmap__read_done() It cannot use perf_mmap__read_backward(). Because it always reads the stale buffer which is already processed. Furthermore, the forward and backward concepts have been removed.

2018-02-15perf mmap: Recalculate size for overwrite modeKan Liang
In perf_mmap__push(), the 'size' need to be recalculated, otherwise the invalid data might be pushed to the record in overwrite mode. The issue is introduced by commit 7fb4b407a124 ("perf mmap: Don't discard prev in backward mode"). When the ring buffer is full in overwrite mode, backward_rb_find_range() will be called to recalculate the 'start' and 'end'. The 'size' needs to be recalculated accordingly. Unconditionally recalculate the 'size', not just for full ring buffer in overwrite mode. Because: - There is no harmful to recalculate the 'size' for other cases. - The code of calculating 'start' and 'end' will be factored out later. The new function does not need to return 'size'.

2017-12-05perf mmap: Don't discard prev in backward modeWang Nan
'perf record' can switch its output data file. The new output should only store the data after switching. However, in overwrite backward mode, the new output still can have data from before switching. That also brings extra overhead. At the end of mmap_read(), the position of the processed ring buffer is saved in md->prev. Next mmap_read should be end in md->prev if it is not overwriten. That avoids processing duplicate data. However, md->prev is discarded. So next the mmap_read() has to process whole valid ring buffer, which probably includes old processed data. Avoid calling backward_rb_find_range() when md->prev is still available.
