Subject: [RFC PATCH perf/core v3 00/17] perf-probe --cache and SDT support
Hi,
Here is the 3rd version of the patchset for probe-cache and
initial SDT support which are going to be perf-cache finally.
The previous version is here; https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/15/221
This version improves SDT support for perf-list and perf-record.
It is still just a basic support (no wildcard support, nor
@FILE/@...LDID support). So this is an ongoing work report :)
As we discussed on the previous series, now all SDT events have
"sdt_" prefix on the provider name. We also should support "@FILE"
or "@BUILDID" suffixes for same-name SDTs.
perf-list shows only SDTs on existing binaries (no old/deleted
files) and if the same-name events are shown, it adds
"@FILE@...LDID" suffixes after the events to clarify on which
binary the SDT exists.
----
# perf buildid-cache -a /usr/bin/gcc
# perf list sdt
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
sdt_libgcc:unwind [SDT event]
sdt_libstdcxx:catch [SDT event]
sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow [SDT event]
sdt_libstdcxx:throw [SDT event]
# perf buildid-cache -a /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6
# perf list sdt
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
sdt_libgcc:unwind [SDT event]
sdt_libstdcxx:catch@...r/bin/gcc@...5d261236bbb [SDT event]
sdt_libstdcxx:catch@...r/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.19@...d6ac0e6236c [SDT event]
sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow@...r/bin/gcc@...5d261236bbb [SDT event]
sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow@...r/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.19@...d6ac0e6236c [SDT event]
sdt_libstdcxx:throw@...r/bin/gcc@...5d261236bbb [SDT event]
sdt_libstdcxx:throw@...r/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.19@...d6ac0e6236c [SDT event]

In this version, I used "@" separater for both FILE and BUILDID,
but I think it is also possible to use "%" for BUILDID.
(BTW, I've cut down the BUILDID to the first 12 chars, and added "0x")
TODOs:
- (perf record) Allow glob matching for SDT event to specify events.
- (perf record) Support @FILE/@...LDID suffix to record specific SDTs.
- (perf record) Try to unregister SDT events after record.
- (perf probe) Allow glob matching for pre-cached events.
- (perf probe) Support @FILE/@...LDID suffix for pre-cached events.
(also removes -x option when using pre-cached events)
- (ftrace) Support multiple SDTs on single event.
Since multiple same SDTs are defined in a single binary (e.g. libc:setjump
has 3 different entries on libc-2.17.so), we need the last feature on
ftrace, so that a single uprobe event can occur several different
probe points.
Thank you,
