perf scripts python: Add event_analyzing_sample.py as a sample for general event handling

2012-08-08T15:55:38Z

Currently only trace point events are supported in perf/python script, the first 3 patches of this serie add the support for all types of events. This script is just a simple sample to show how to gather the basic information of the events and analyze them. This script will create one object for each event sample and insert them into a table in a database, then leverage the simple SQL commands to sort/group them. User can modify or write their brand new functions according to their specific requirment. Here is the sample of how to use the script: $ perf record -a tree $ perf script -s process_event.py There is 100 records in gen_events table Statistics about the general events grouped by thread/symbol/dso: comm number histgram ========================================== swapper 56 ###### tree 20 ##### perf 10 #### sshd 8 #### kworker/7:2 4 ### ksoftirqd/7 1 # plugin-containe 1 # symbol number histgram ========================================================== native_write_msr_safe 40 ###### __lock_acquire 8 #### ftrace_graph_caller 4 ### prepare_ftrace_return 4 ### intel_idle 3 ## native_sched_clock 3 ## Unknown_symbol 2 ## do_softirq 2 ## lock_release 2 ## lock_release_holdtime 2 ## trace_graph_entry 2 ## _IO_putc 1 # __d_lookup_rcu 1 # __do_fault 1 # __schedule 1 # _raw_spin_lock 1 # delay_tsc 1 # generic_exec_single 1 # generic_fillattr 1 # dso number histgram ================================================================== [kernel.kallsyms] 95 ####### /lib/libc-2.12.1.so 5 ### Signed-off-by: Feng Tang Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: David Ahern Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Robert Richter Cc: Stephane Eranian Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1344419875-21665-6-git-send-email-feng.tang@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf scripts python: Add a python library EventClass.py

2012-08-08T15:53:08Z

This library defines several class types for perf events which could help to better analyze the event samples. Currently there are just a few classes, PerfEvent is the base class for all perf events, PebsEvent is a HW base Intel x86 PEBS event, and user could add more SW/HW event classes based on requriements.

perf script: Add drop monitor script

2011-09-29T19:41:37Z

A while back I created the dropmonitor protocol, which allowed users to get reports of dropped frames communicated to them via a netlink socket. While useful, several people have now asked that I integrate the ability to do drop monitoring with perf, so they don't have to run additional tools. This patch adds a drop monitor script to the perf suite, and provides the same output that the netlink socket does.

perf script: Finish the rename from trace to script

2010-12-25T13:29:02Z

The scripts have calls to 'perf trace' that need to be converted to 'perf script', do it. This problem was introduced in 133dc4c.

Free the perf trace name space and rename the trace to 'script' which is a better match for the scripting engine. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner

perf trace scripting: remove system-wide param from shell scripts

2010-11-10T14:08:20Z
