From: Wojciech Zmuda <wzmuda(a)n7space.com> Hello, After our discussion in [1] I came up with this proposal solution on how to timestamp perf samples, so we can tell in trace post-processing, how long does it take to execute traced blocks of code. I'll be grateful if you find some time to take a look at it. The patch itself is 37 lines of additions, so it shouldn't consume a lot of your time. I also have some ideas to further improve this patch I'm not quite sure about, so I'd like to ask you for your input. The simplest verification is visibility of the time field in 'perf script' output: root@zynq:~# perf script --ns -F comm,cpu,event,time | head Frame deformatter: Found 4 FSYNCS singlethread-at [001] 4572.697372400: branches:u: singlethread-at [001] 4572.697372404: branches:u: singlethread-at [001] 4572.697372408: branches:u: singlethread-at [001] 4572.697372412: branches:u: singlethread-at [001] 4572.697372416: branches:u: The step above works only if trace has been collected in CPU-wide mode. I have an idea on how to improve this, but I'd like to get some more information first. I elaborated in the last paragraph. Another way to access these values is using the script engine, which I used for validation of sanity of timestamp values. Using python script I checked if timestamps in subsequent samples are monotonically increasing and it seems they are. The only exception are discontinuities in trace. From my understanding, we can't timestamp discontinuities reasonably, since after decoder synchronizes back after trace loss, it needs to wait for another timestamp packet. from __future__ import print_function import os import sys sys.path.append(os.environ['PERF_EXEC_PATH'] + \ '/scripts/python/Perf-Trace-Util/lib/Perf/Trace') from perf_trace_context import * prev_sample = 0 cnt = 0; def process_event(s): global prev_sample global cnt sample = s['sample'] if not prev_sample: prev_sample = sample; cnt = cnt+1 return if sample['time'] < prev_sample['time']: print('Sample %d has higher timestamp than sample %d' % (cnt-1, cnt)) cnt = cnt+1 By subtracting timestamps of two samples, we can approximately tell, how long did it take (in timestamp units) to execute instructions between these two points. Now, (basing on Al's response in [1]) knowing the timestamp generator clock frequency, we can tell how long did it take in proper time units. The frequency is known (we have it in DT) and can be saved to and retrieved from TSGEN register. This is not done at this moment (the register is empty), but the idea is, if it was, it might then be saved in perf.data headers (similarly as TRCIDR are saved now), and later programmatically retrieved to calculate timestamp differences into actual time. I didn't experiment with it yet - I'd like to learn your opinion on it. I've also tried to access the time field with 'perf script -F time' and while it's possible for traces recorded in CPU-wide mode, it's not possible in per-thread mode due to PERF_SAMPLE_TIME not being set in that mode (cs_etm__synth_events()). I tried to analyze that code, but I can't understand relation between this flag and ETM's timeless_decoding property. It looks to me that timeless decoding was equal to per-thread mode, where timestamps were not really utilized, while in CPU-wide mode they were used to inter-queue correlation. Would it be a good direction to have a separate property of TSGEN being on/off and to set PERF_SAMPLE_TIME based on this, rather than on etm->timeless_decoding? I see an obstacle in the cs_etm__is_timeless_decoding() function, that sets etm->timeless_decoding basing on events having this SAMPLE_TIME flag or not - could the criterion here be the tracing mode (CPU-wide/per-thread) instead?

[RFC PATCH v2 0/2] perf test: Support Arm CoreSight testing

by Leo Yan

This patch set tries to add support Arm CoreSight testing with perf tool. Since the testings might be very diverse according to different requirements, to keep the testing as simple as possible from the start point, I'd like to define the testings to fulfil below duties: - Sanity testing for integration perf tool with CoreSight tracing; - Trace source oriented testing, it needs to test for every source and iterate the paths from the source to its possible sinks; - Test with 'perf script' for branch samples; - Test with 'perf report' for branch samples and synthesized instruction samples. Before started this work, we need a reliable and simple method to help us to analysis every possible path from one specific source to its output sinks. Suzuki has one the patch [1] which creates sysfs in/out nodes in CoreSight device folders, based on this it's convenient to use depth-first search (DFS) to traverse the paths from ETM to its connected sink devices. Patch 0001 introduces shell script, which based on sysfs in/out nodes to find every feasible path from one CPU to one sink, then we can specify the sink in perf record command and use taskset command to bind task to the target CPU. Use this way it can very if the target CPU can generate trace data and output to the specific sink successfully or not, below is the iteration flow in Juno board: Recording trace with path: CPU0 => 20010000.etf Recording trace with path: CPU0 => 20070000.etr Recording trace with path: CPU1 => 20010000.etf Recording trace with path: CPU1 => 20070000.etr Recording trace with path: CPU2 => 20010000.etf Recording trace with path: CPU2 => 20070000.etr Recording trace with path: CPU3 => 20010000.etf Recording trace with path: CPU3 => 20070000.etr Recording trace with path: CPU4 => 20010000.etf Recording trace with path: CPU4 => 20070000.etr Recording trace with path: CPU5 => 20010000.etf Recording trace with path: CPU5 => 20070000.etr Patch 0002 adds two testings for 'perf report', one is the general testing and the second is testing with option '-itrace'. I verified this patch set on Juno board, the code is based on CoreSight next branch, and applied Suzuki's the patch set 'coresight: Support for ACPI bindings' (have applied the total 36 patches) [2].

[PATCH v3 00/30] coresight: Support for ACPI bindings

by Suzuki K Poulose

This series adds the support for CoreSight devices on ACPI based platforms. The device connections are encoded as _DSD graph property[0], with CoreSight specific extensions to indicate the direction of data flow as described in [1]. Components attached to CPUs are listed as child devices of the corresponding CPU, removing explicit links to the CPU like we do in the DT. The majority of the series cleans up the driver and prepares the subsystem for platform agnostic firwmare probing, naming scheme, searching etc. We introduce platform independent helpers to parse the platform supplied information. Thus we rename the platform handling code from: of_coresight.c => coresight-platform.c The CoreSight driver creates shadow devices that appear on the Coresight bus, in addition to the real devices (e.g, AMBA bus devices). The name of these devices match the real device. This makes the device name a bit cryptic for ACPI platform. So this series also introduces a generic platform agnostic device naming scheme for the shadow Coresight devices. Towards this we also make changes to the way we lookup devices to resolve the connections, as we can't use the names to identify the devices. So, we use the "fwnode_handle" of the real device for the device lookups. Towards that we clean up the drivers to keep track of the "CoreSight" device rather than the "real" device. However, all real operations, like DMA allocation, Power management etc. must be performed on the real device which is the parent of the shadow device. Finally we add the support for parsing the ACPI platform data. The power management support is missing in the ACPI (and this is not specific to CoreSight). The firmware must ensure that the respective power domains are turned on. Applies on Mathieu's coresight/next tree. Tested on a Juno-r0 board with ACPI bindings patch (Patch 31/30) added on top of [2]. You would need to make sure that the debug power domain is turned on before the Linux kernel boots. (e.g, connect the DS-5 to the Juno board while at UEFI). arm32 code is only compile tested.

[RFC] Trace-based execution time profiling (timestamp in perf-script?)

by Wojciech Żmuda

Hello, I'm trying to design a solution to use CoreSight for measuring application execution time, with granularity of specific ranges of instructions. I have some idea how this may be achieved and I'd like to know your opinion. Great inspiration comes from this patch set by Leo Yan, especially from the disassembly script: https://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/coresight/2018-May/001325.html Analyzing this, I learned that perf-script is capable of understanding perf.data AUXTRACE section and parsing some of the trace elements to branch samples, which illustrate how the IP moved around. These pieces of information are available for the built-in python interpreter, so we can script it to get assembly from the program image. If I understand perf-script in its current shape correctly, it ignores all the non-branching events (so everything that's not an ATOM, EXCEPTION or TRACE_ON packet) - specifically, timestamping is lost during the process. I'd like to modify perf-script to generate samples on such timing events, so later I can have them in between assembly instructions to calculate deltas and be able to tell either: - how much time and/or CPU cycles have been spent between two arbitrary instructions (ideally), or - what instructions have been executed between timestamp T and T+1 (this seems to be more in-line with how timestamping in CS works, I think) Brief analysis of tools/perf/util.cs-etm.c and cs-etm-decoder/cs-etm-decoder.c suggests that timestamp events are not turned into packets, but merely recorded as a packet queue parameter (I'm not sure why this is needed, though). The cycacc event is not processed further at all, beside being later decoded to plaintext by OpenCSD. I think it may be worth to give them both a dedicated `enum cs_etm_sample_type` value and packet generator functions. Then, I think, it should be possible to generate samples (not sure what type though, perhaps not 'branch' this time) for timestamp/cycacc packets, analogically to what has been done for TRACE_ON https://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/coresight/2018-May/001327.html and then expose it in the python interface. I'd be grateful for any opinion about this idea, especially about usefulness of such feature for the general audience, as well as any possible compatibility issues. If you are aware of another approach to achieve timestamp correlation with branch samples, it would also be very welcome. I hope the idea is not completely pointless. I'm still making my way through the perf subsystem, so I might have missed some crucial details. Thank you for your time, Wojciech

Re: [PATCH 0/5] coresight: Fix snapshot mode

by Wojciech Żmuda

Hello Mathieu, Does this patch set have impact on other modes as well? I’m thinking --switch-output – it works kind of similar to --snapshot, i.e. may write into perf.data on SIGUSR2 (or on other triggers). What was the high-level reason for these changes? I can see that you adjust perf ring buffer to match sink hardware buffer. Does this mismatch cause some visible trace loss? Thanks, Wojciech
