Subject: [PATCH v6 4/8] perf record off-cpu: Dump direct off-cpu samples in BPF
Add perf_event_array map for dumping direct off-cpu samples, but keep
the at-the-end approach.
Tons of checking before access, to pass the BPF verifier.
If off-cpu time (represented as delta) exceeds the off-cpu threshold, do
output.
Output PERF_SAMPLE_TID, PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD, PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN, and
PERF_SAMPLE_CGROUP in bpf_perf_event_output().
Ideally, we should only output
PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD (off-cpu time) and PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN (sched_in
process's callchain). One only needs to set PERF_SAMPLE_TID and
PERF_SAMPLE_CGROUP, and perf_event will do everything for us.
But in reality, that's not the case. Setting PERF_SAMPLE_TID will mostly
give us TID of 0. We might get the correct TID for offcpu-time event
from time to time, but it is really rare.
swapper 0 [000] offcpu-time: /
:1321819 1321819 [002] offcpu-time: /user.slice/user-1000.slice/session-2.scope
swapper 0 [001] offcpu-time: /
swapper 0 [003] offcpu-time: /
And setting PERF_SAMPLE_CGROUP doesn't work properly either.
tmux: server 3701 [003] offcpu-time: /
blueman-tray 1064 [001] offcpu-time: /
bash 1350867 [001] offcpu-time: /
bash 1350844 [000] offcpu-time: /
We need to retrieve PERF_SAMPLE_TID, PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD,
PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN, and PERF_SAMPLE_CGROUP using BPF and output these
four fields.
