This patchkit adds the ability to turn off callgraphs and time stamps
per event. This in term can reduce sampling overhead and the size of
the perf.data.
Changes since V1:
- Break up V1 patches into three patches(parse option changes,
partial time support and partial callgraph support).
- Use strings 'fp,dwarf,lbr,no' to identify callchains
- Add test case in parse-events.c
Changes since V2:
- Rebase on 60cd37eb10
Changes since V3:
- Replace OPT_CALLBACK_SET by current existing callback mechanism.
- Using perf_evsel__set_sample_bit if possible
- Change the expression "partial" to "per event"
- Using global variable to indicate if 'time' is set per event.
If 'time' is not set, enable it by default for perf record.
Changes since V4:
- Fix issue of setting callgraph_set
Changes since V5:
- per-event settings over global settings in general
- support for event post configuration structure
Changes since V6:
- Add error infor for per-event time
- rename the option to call-graph and stacl-size
- refine parse/config callchain functions,
and reuse them for per-event callgraph setting
- Modify perf test

and force user specified term value. It will be useful
for new time and backtrace terms.

1.8.3.1
From: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]>
Currently the command line option settings beats the
per event period settings:
With no global settings, we get per-event configuration:
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 20000 ...
With 'c' option period setup, we get 'c' option value:
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' -c 1000 sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 1000 ...
This patch makes the per-event settings overload the
global 'c' option setup:
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' -c 1000 sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 20000 ...
I think the making the per-event settings to overload any other
config makes more sense than current state. However it breaks
the current 'period' term handling, which might cause some
noise.. so let's see ;-).
Also fixing parse event tests with the new behaviour.

1.8.3.1
From: Kan Liang <[email protected]>
This patchkit adds the ability to turn off time stamps per event.
One usable case of partial time is to work with per-event callgraph to
enable "PEBS threshold > 1" (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/10/196), which
can significantly reduce the sampling overhead.
The event samples with time stamps off will not be ordered.

From: Kan Liang <[email protected]>
Pass global callchain_param into parse_callchain_record_opt and
perf_evsel__config_callgraph as parameter. So we can reuse these
functions to parse/config local param for callchain.

1.8.3.1
From: Kan Liang <[email protected]>
When multiple events are sampled it may not be needed to collect
callgraphs for all of them. The sample sites are usually nearby, and
it's enough to collect the callgraphs on a reference event (such as
precise cycles or precise instructions).
This patchkit adds the ability to turn off callgraphs and time stamp
per event. This in term can reduce sampling overhead and the size of the
perf.data. Furthermore, it makes collecting back traces and timestamps
possible when PEBS threshold > 1, which significantly reducing the
sampling overhead especially for frequently occurring events
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/10/196). For example, A slower event with
a larger period collects back traces/timestamps. Other more events run
fast with multi-pebs. The time stamps from the slower events can be used
to order the faster events. Their backtraces can give the user enough
hint to find the right spot.
Here are some examples and test results.
1. Comparing the elapsed time and perf.data size from "kernbench -M -H".
The test command for FULL callgraph and time support.
"perf record -e
'{cpu/cpu-cycles,period=100000/,cpu/instructions,period=20000/p}'
--call-graph fp --time"
The test command for PARTIAL callgraph and time support.
"perf record -e
'{cpu/cpu-cycles,call-graph=fp,time,period=100000/,
cpu/instructions,call-graph=no,time=0,period=20000/p}'"
The elapsed time for FULL is 24.3 Sec, while for PARTIAL is 16.9 Sec.
The perf.data size for FULL is 22.1 Gb, while for PARTIAL is 12.4 Gb.
2. Comparing the perf.data size and callgraph results.
The test command for FULL callgraph and time support.
"perf record -e
'{cpu/cpu-cycles,period=100000/pp,cpu/instructions,period=20000/p}'
--call-graph fp -- ./tchain_edit"
The test command for PARTIAL callgraph and time support.
"perf record -e
'{cpu/cpu-cycles,call-graph=fp,time,period=100000/pp,
cpu/instructions,call-graph=no,time=0,period=20000/p}'
-- ./tchain_edit"
The perf.data size for FULL is 43.2 MB, while for PARTIAL is 21.1 MB.
The callgraph is roughly the same.
The callgraph from FULL

please put code above into perf_evsel__reset_callgraph
ans place it close to perf_evsel__config_callgraph ;-)
other than that the change looks ok to me now
thanks,

perf tools: Add support for event post configuration
Add support to overload any global settings for event and force user
specified term value. It will be useful for new time and backtrace
terms.

perf tools: Force period term to overload global settings
Currently the command line option settings beats the per event period
settings:
With no global settings, we get per-event configuration:
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 20000 ...
With 'c' option period setup, we get 'c' option value:
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' -c 1000 sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 1000 ...
This patch makes the per-event settings overload the global 'c' option
setup:
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' -c 1000 sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 20000 ...
I think the making the per-event settings to overload any other config
makes more sense than current state. However it breaks the current
'period' term handling, which might cause some noise.. so let's see ;-).
Also fixing parse event tests with the new behaviour.
