[PATCH v2 00/10] perf stat: Enable '--per-thread' on all threads

Jin Yao
2017-11-27T06:12:15Z

v2:
---
Update according to Jiri's comments. The major modifications are:

1. Remove unnecessary memset for runtime_stat and
walltime_nsecs_stats.

2. Remove init_saved_rblist/free_saved_rblist and move the codes
to runtime_stat__init/runtime_stat__free.

3. Change function name from perf_stat__init_runtime_stat/
perf_stat__free_runtime_stat to runtime_stat__init/
runtime_stat__free

4. Create a new patch 'perf util: Extend rbtree to support shadow stats'
to add new ctx/type/stat into rbtree keys for supporting per-thread
shadow stats. It also comment in here on the cases where evsel is
defined and when not.

5. Pass &rt_stat directly to perf_stat__update_shadow_stats, replace
original parameter NULL.

6. Move the code of shadow stat updating for per-thread case to config->stats
allocation/usage patch.

7. Add BUG_ON(!rb_node) in saved_value_delete.

8. s/stat_num/stats_num/ or s/stats/stat/ in struct perf_stat_config.

9. Rebase to latest perf/core branch.

Impacted patch:
---------------
perf util: Define a structure for runtime shadow metrics stats
perf util: Extend rbtree to support shadow stats
perf util: Add rbtree node_delete ops
perf util: Update and print per-thread shadow stats
perf stat: Allocate shadow stats buffer for threads
perf stat: Remove --per-thread pid/tid limitation
perf stat: Resort '--per-thread' result

Initial post:
-------------

perf stat --per-thread is useful to break down data per thread.
But it currently requires specifying --pid/--tid to limit it to a process.

For analysis it would be useful to do it globally for the whole system.

1. Currently, if we perform 'perf stat --per-thread' without pid/tid,
perf returns error:

root@skl:/tmp# perf stat --per-thread
The --per-thread option is only available when monitoring via -p -t options.
-p, --pid <pid> stat events on existing process id
-t, --tid <tid> stat events on existing thread id

2. With this patch series, it returns data per thread with shadow metrics.
(run "vmstat 1" in following example)

root@skl:/tmp# perf stat --per-thread
