Subject: [PATCH v5 3/7] perf/sdt: Directly record SDT events with 'perf record'
From: Hemant Kumar <hemant@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>
Add basic support for directly recording SDT events which are present
in the probe cache. Without this patch, we could probe into SDT events
using 'perf probe' and 'perf record'. With this patch, we can probe the
SDT events directly using 'perf record'.
After invoking 'perf record', behind the scenes, it checks whether the
event specified is an SDT event using the string 'sdt_' or flag '%'.
After that, it does a lookup of the probe cache to find out the SDT
event. If its not present, it throws an error. Otherwise, it goes on
and writes the event into the uprobe_events file and starts recording.
It also maintains a list of the event names that were written to
uprobe_events file. At the end of the record session, it removes the
events from the uprobe_events file using the maintained name list.
For example:
$ sudo ./perf list sdt
sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry [SDT event]
sdt_libc:setjmp [SDT event]
$ sudo ./perf record -a -e sdt_libc:setjmp
$ sudo ./perf script
bash 793 [002] 260.382957: sdt_libc:setjmp: (7ff85b6596a1)
reset 1296 [000] 260.511983: sdt_libc:setjmp: (7f26862e06a1)
Recording on SDT events with same provider and marker names is also
supported:
$ readelf -n /usr/lib64/libpthread-2.24.so | grep -A2 Provider
Provider: libpthread
Name: mutex_entry
Location: 0x0000000000009ddb, Base: 0x00000000000139cc, ...
--
Provider: libpthread
Name: mutex_entry
Location: 0x000000000000bcbb, Base: 0x00000000000139cc, ...
$ sudo ./perf record -a -e sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry
Warning : Recording on 2 occurences of sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry
$ sudo ./perf evlist
sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry_1
sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry
Note that, it always fetch sdt events in probe cache and ignores
entries of uprobe_events file. Hence, it creates new probe points
for event even if it already exists in uprobe_events.
$ sudo ./perf probe sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry
Added new events:
sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry (on %mutex_entry in /usr/lib64/libpthread-2.24.so)
sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry_1 (on %mutex_entry in /usr/lib64/libpthread-2.24.so)
$ sudo ./perf record -a -e sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry
Warning : Recording on 2 occurences of sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry
$ sudo ./perf evlist
sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry_3
sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry_2
As it does not look at uprobe_events file, it can't record those events
whose probe points are created with different name. For ex,
$ sudo ./perf record -a -e sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry_1
Error: sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry_1 not found in the cache
invalid or unsupported event: 'sdt_libpthread:mutex_entry_1'
