Subject: perf probe/trace python scripting integration issues

Ok, now I'm trying to convert net/ipv4/tcp_probe.c to perf probe + perf
trace python scripting, so first thing I stumbled was:

[root@ana ~]# perf probe tcp_rcv_established:32 'saddr=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_saddr daddr=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_daddr sport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_sport dport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_dport'
Add new events:
Failed to write event: Invalid argument
  Error: Failed to add events. (-1)
[root@ana ~]#

The message is cryptic, but then I looked at dmesg and:

Line length is too long: Should be less than 128.

128 seems like too little for real fun, but anyway, I suppressed saddr,
assuming a machine with just an IP address then:

[root@ana ~]# perf probe tcp_rcv_established:32 'daddr=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_daddr sport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_sport dport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_dport'
Add new events:
  probe:tcp_rcv_established (on tcp_rcv_established:32 with daddr=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_daddr sport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_sport dport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_dport)
  probe:tcp_rcv_established_1 (on tcp_rcv_established:32 with daddr=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_daddr sport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_sport dport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_dport)

You can now use it on all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e probe:tcp_rcv_established_1 -aR sleep 1

[root@ana ~]#

Better, but why that _1? I did this several times, but:

[root@ana ~]# perf probe --list
  probe:tcp_rcv_established (on tcp_rcv_established:32@...4/tcp_input.c with daddr sport dport)
  probe:tcp_rcv_established_1 (on tcp_rcv_established:32@...4/tcp_input.c with daddr sport dport)
[root@ana ~]# perf probe -d probe:tcp_rcv_established
Remove event: probe:tcp_rcv_established
[root@ana ~]# perf probe --list
  probe:tcp_rcv_established_1 (on tcp_rcv_established:32@...4/tcp_input.c with daddr sport dport)
[root@ana ~]# perf probe -d probe:tcp_rcv_established_1
Remove event: probe:tcp_rcv_established_1
[root@ana ~]# perf probe --list
[root@ana ~]# perf probe tcp_rcv_established:32 'daddr=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_daddr sport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_sport dport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_dport'
Add new events:
  probe:tcp_rcv_established (on tcp_rcv_established:32 with daddr=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_daddr sport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_sport dport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_dport)
  probe:tcp_rcv_established_1 (on tcp_rcv_established:32 with daddr=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_daddr sport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_sport dport=tp->inet_conn.icsk_inet.inet_dport)

You can now use it on all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e probe:tcp_rcv_established_1 -aR sleep 1

[root@ana ~]#

Strange! It is adding two events for the price of one :-\

Anyway, then:

[root@ana ~]# perf record -a -e probe:tcp_rcv_established
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.354 MB perf.data (~15445 samples) ]

[root@ana ~]#

And then lets get to perf trace --gen-script, which is a pearl, great stuff :-)

[root@ana ~]# perf trace --gen-script python
generated Python script: perf-trace.py
[root@ana ~]# cat perf-trace.py
# perf trace event handlers, generated by perf trace -g python
# Licensed under the terms of the GNU GPL License version 2

# The common_* event handler fields are the most useful fields common to
# all events.  They don't necessarily correspond to the 'common_*' fields
# in the format files.  Those fields not available as handler params can
# be retrieved using Python functions of the form common_*(context).
# See the perf-trace-python Documentation for the list of available functions.

	print "%-20s %5u %05u.%09u %8u %-20s " % \

[root@ana ~]#

If I add socket.inet_ntoa to pretty print daddr it works, but there is a
problem with sport:

[root@ana ~]# perf trace -s perf-trace.py

Look at the sport type, it flips from long to int sometimes, I saw this on
dport too, ideas?

[root@ana ~]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/probe/tcp_rcv_established/format

Ok, maybe this is just me trying to use the latest relesed kernel for a
current distribution, will try with 2.6.36-rc8 :-\
