LinuxLists.cc - [PATCH 3/3] libperf: Add man pages

2019-12-06 13:57:02

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] libperf: Add man pages

Changing the man page generation to, because it's easier
to use and been more common in related projects. Removing
the current rst pages.

Adding 3 man pages to have the man page base for more
additions:

libperf.3 - overall description
libperf-counting.7 - counting basics explained on simple example
libperf-sampling.7 - sampling basics explained on simple example

The plan is to add more man pages to cover the basic API.

The build generates html and man pages:

$ cd tools/lib/perf/Documentation
$ make
ASCIIDOC libperf.xml
XMLTO libperf.3
ASCIIDOC libperf-counting.xml
XMLTO libperf-counting.7
ASCIIDOC libperf-sampling.xml
XMLTO libperf-sampling.7
ASCIIDOC libperf.html
ASCIIDOC libperf-counting.html
ASCIIDOC libperf-sampling.html

Adding following install targets:
install-man - man pages
install-html - html version of man pages
install-examples - examples mentioned in the man pages

+===================
+
+NAME
+----
+libperf-counting - counting interface
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The counting interface provides API to meassure and get count for specific perf events.
+
+The following test tries to explain count on `counting.c` example.
+
+It is by no means complete guide to counting, but shows libperf basic API for counting.
+
+The `counting.c` comes with libbperf package and can be compiled and run like:
+
+[source,bash]
+--
+$ gcc -o counting counting.c -lperf
+$ sudo ./counting
+count 176792, enabled 176944, run 176944
+count 176242, enabled 176242, run 176242
+--
+
+It requires root access, because of the `PERF_COUNT_SW_CPU_CLOCK` event,
+which is available only for root.
+
+The `counting.c` example monitors two events on the current process and displays their count, in a nutshel it:
+
+* creates events
+* adds them to the event list
+* opens and enables events through the event list
+* does some workload
+* disables events
+* reads and displays event counts
+* destroys the event list
+
+The first thing you need to do before using libperf is to call init function:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 8 static int libperf_print(enum libperf_print_level level,
+ 9 const char *fmt, va_list ap)
+ 10 {
+ 11 return vfprintf(stderr, fmt, ap);
+ 12 }
+
+ 14 int main(int argc, char **argv)
+ 15 {
+ ...
+ 35 libperf_init(libperf_print);
+--
+
+It will setup the library and sets function for debug output from library.
+
+The `libperf_print` callback will receive any message with its debug level,
+defined as:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+enum libperf_print_level {
+ LIBPERF_ERR,
+ LIBPERF_WARN,
+ LIBPERF_INFO,
+ LIBPERF_DEBUG,
+ LIBPERF_DEBUG2,
+ LIBPERF_DEBUG3,
+};
+--
+
+Once the setup is complete we start by defining specific events using the `struct perf_event_attr`.
+
+We create software events for cpu and task:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 20 struct perf_event_attr attr1 = {
+ 21 .type = PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE,
+ 22 .config = PERF_COUNT_SW_CPU_CLOCK,
+ 23 .read_format = PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING,
+ 24 .disabled = 1,
+ 25 };
+ 26 struct perf_event_attr attr2 = {
+ 27 .type = PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE,
+ 28 .config = PERF_COUNT_SW_TASK_CLOCK,
+ 29 .read_format = PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING,
+ 30 .disabled = 1,
+ 31 };
+--
+
+The `read_format` setup tells perf to include timing details together with each count.
+
+Next step is to prepare threads map.
+
+In this case we will monitor current process, so we create threads map with single pid (0):
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 37 threads = perf_thread_map__new_dummy();
+ 38 if (!threads) {
+ 39 fprintf(stderr, "failed to create threads\n");
+ 40 return -1;
+ 41 }
+ 42
+ 43 perf_thread_map__set_pid(threads, 0, 0);
+--
+
+Now we create libperf's event list, which will serve as holder for the events we want:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 45 evlist = perf_evlist__new();
+ 46 if (!evlist) {
+ 47 fprintf(stderr, "failed to create evlist\n");
+ 48 goto out_threads;
+ 49 }
+--
+
+We create libperf's events for the attributes we defined earlier and add them to the list:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 51 evsel = perf_evsel__new(&attr1);
+ 52 if (!evsel) {
+ 53 fprintf(stderr, "failed to create evsel1\n");
+ 54 goto out_evlist;
+ 55 }
+ 56
+ 57 perf_evlist__add(evlist, evsel);
+ 58
+ 59 evsel = perf_evsel__new(&attr2);
+ 60 if (!evsel) {
+ 61 fprintf(stderr, "failed to create evsel2\n");
+ 62 goto out_evlist;
+ 63 }
+ 64
+ 65 perf_evlist__add(evlist, evsel);
+--
+
+Configure event list with the thread map and open events:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 67 perf_evlist__set_maps(evlist, NULL, threads);
+ 68
+ 69 err = perf_evlist__open(evlist);
+ 70 if (err) {
+ 71 fprintf(stderr, "failed to open evsel\n");
+ 72 goto out_evlist;
+ 73 }
+--
+
+Both events are created as disabled (note the `disabled = 1` assignment above),
+so we need to enable the whole list explicitely (both events).
+
+From this moment events are counting and we can do our workload.
+
+When we are done we disable the events list.
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 75 perf_evlist__enable(evlist);
+ 76
+ 77 while (count--);
+ 78
+ 79 perf_evlist__disable(evlist);
+--
+
+Now we need to get the counts from events, following code iterates throught the events list and read counts:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 81 perf_evlist__for_each_evsel(evlist, evsel) {
+ 82 perf_evsel__read(evsel, 0, 0, &counts);
+ 83 fprintf(stdout, "count %llu, enabled %llu, run %llu\n",
+ 84 counts.val, counts.ena, counts.run);
+ 85 }
+--
+
+And finaly cleanup.
+
+We close the whole events list (both events) and remove it together with the threads map:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 87 perf_evlist__close(evlist);
+ 88
+ 89 out_evlist:
+ 90 perf_evlist__delete(evlist);
+ 91 out_threads:
+ 92 perf_thread_map__put(threads);
+ 93 return err;
+ 94 }
+--

+NAME
+----
+libperf-sampling - sampling interface
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The sampling interface provides API to meassure and get count for specific perf events.
+
+The following test tries to explain count on `sampling.c` example.
+
+It is by no means complete guide to sampling, but shows libperf basic API for sampling.
+
+The `sampling.c` comes with libbperf package and can be compiled and run like:
+
+[source,bash]
+--
+$ gcc -o sampling sampling.c -lperf
+$ sudo ./sampling
+cpu 0, pid 0, tid 0, ip ffffffffad06c4e6, period 1
+cpu 0, pid 4465, tid 4469, ip ffffffffad118748, period 18322959
+cpu 0, pid 0, tid 0, ip ffffffffad115722, period 33544846
+cpu 0, pid 4465, tid 4470, ip 7f84fe0cdad6, period 23687474
+cpu 0, pid 0, tid 0, ip ffffffffad9e0349, period 34255790
+cpu 0, pid 4465, tid 4469, ip ffffffffad136581, period 38664069
+cpu 0, pid 0, tid 0, ip ffffffffad9e55e2, period 21922384
+cpu 0, pid 4465, tid 4470, ip 7f84fe0ebebf, period 17655175
+...
+--
+
+It requires root access, because it uses hardware cycles event.
+
+The `sampling.c` example profiles/samples all CPUs with hardware cycles, in a nutshel it:
+
+- creates events
+- adds them to the event list
+- opens and enables events through the event list
+- sleeps for 3 seconds
+- disables events
+- reads and displays recorded samples
+- destroys the event list
+
+The first thing you need to do before using libperf is to call init function:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 12 static int libperf_print(enum libperf_print_level level,
+ 13 const char *fmt, va_list ap)
+ 14 {
+ 15 return vfprintf(stderr, fmt, ap);
+ 16 }
+
+ 23 int main(int argc, char **argv)
+ 24 {
+ ...
+ 40 libperf_init(libperf_print);
+--
+
+It will setup the library and sets function for debug output from library.
+
+The `libperf_print` callback will receive any message with its debug level,
+defined as:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+enum libperf_print_level {
+ LIBPERF_ERR,
+ LIBPERF_WARN,
+ LIBPERF_INFO,
+ LIBPERF_DEBUG,
+ LIBPERF_DEBUG2,
+ LIBPERF_DEBUG3,
+};
+--
+
+Once the setup is complete we start by defining cycles event using the `struct perf_event_attr`:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 29 struct perf_event_attr attr = {
+ 30 .type = PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE,
+ 31 .config = PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES,
+ 32 .disabled = 1,
+ 33 .freq = 1,
+ 34 .sample_freq = 10,
+ 35 .sample_type = PERF_SAMPLE_IP|PERF_SAMPLE_TID|PERF_SAMPLE_CPU|PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD,
+ 36 };
+--
+
+Next step is to prepare cpus map.
+
+In this case we will monitor all the available CPUs:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 42 cpus = perf_cpu_map__new(NULL);
+ 43 if (!cpus) {
+ 44 fprintf(stderr, "failed to create cpus\n");
+ 45 return -1;
+ 46 }
+--
+
+Now we create libperf's event list, which will serve as holder for the cycles event:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 48 evlist = perf_evlist__new();
+ 49 if (!evlist) {
+ 50 fprintf(stderr, "failed to create evlist\n");
+ 51 goto out_cpus;
+ 52 }
+--
+
+We create libperf's event for the cycles attribute we defined earlier and add it to the list:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 54 evsel = perf_evsel__new(&attr);
+ 55 if (!evsel) {
+ 56 fprintf(stderr, "failed to create cycles\n");
+ 57 goto out_cpus;
+ 58 }
+ 59
+ 60 perf_evlist__add(evlist, evsel);
+--
+
+Configure event list with the cpus map and open event:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 62 perf_evlist__set_maps(evlist, cpus, NULL);
+ 63
+ 64 err = perf_evlist__open(evlist);
+ 65 if (err) {
+ 66 fprintf(stderr, "failed to open evlist\n");
+ 67 goto out_evlist;
+ 68 }
+--
+
+Once the events list is open, we can create memory maps AKA perf ring buffers:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 70 err = perf_evlist__mmap(evlist, 4);
+ 71 if (err) {
+ 72 fprintf(stderr, "failed to mmap evlist\n");
+ 73 goto out_evlist;
+ 74 }
+--
+
+The event is created as disabled (note the `disabled = 1` assignment above),
+so we need to enable the events list explicitely.
+
+From this moment the cycles event is sampling.
+
+We will sleep for 3 seconds while the ring buffers get data from all CPUs, then we disable the events list.
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 76 perf_evlist__enable(evlist);
+ 77 sleep(3);
+ 78 perf_evlist__disable(evlist);
+--
+
+Following code walks through the ring buffers and reads stored events/samples:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 80 perf_evlist__for_each_mmap(evlist, map, false) {
+ 81 if (perf_mmap__read_init(map) < 0)
+ 82 continue;
+ 83
+ 84 while ((event = perf_mmap__read_event(map)) != NULL) {
+
+ /* process event */
+
+108 perf_mmap__consume(map);
+109 }
+110 perf_mmap__read_done(map);
+111 }
+
+--
+
+Each sample needs to get parsed:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+ 85 int cpu, pid, tid;
+ 86 __u64 ip, period, *array;
+ 87 union u64_swap u;
+ 88
+ 89 array = event->sample.array;
+ 90
+ 91 ip = *array;
+ 92 array++;
+ 93
+ 94 u.val64 = *array;
+ 95 pid = u.val32[0];
+ 96 tid = u.val32[1];
+ 97 array++;
+ 98
+ 99 u.val64 = *array;
+100 cpu = u.val32[0];
+101 array++;
+102
+103 period = *array;
+104
+105 fprintf(stdout, "cpu %3d, pid %6d, tid %6d, ip %20llx, period %20llu\n",
+106 cpu, pid, tid, ip, period);
+--
+
+And finaly cleanup.
+
+We close the whole events list (both events) and remove it together with the threads map:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+113 out_evlist:
+114 perf_evlist__delete(evlist);
+115 out_cpus:
+116 perf_cpu_map__put(cpus);
+117 return err;
+118 }

-libperf tutorial
-================
-
-Compile and install libperf from kernel sources
-===============================================
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
- cd linux/tools/perf/lib
- make
- sudo make install prefix=/usr
-
-Libperf object
-==============
-The libperf library provides several high level objects:
-
-struct perf_cpu_map
- Provides a cpu list abstraction.
-
-struct perf_thread_map
- Provides a thread list abstraction.
-
-struct perf_evsel
- Provides an abstraction for single a perf event.
-
-struct perf_evlist
- Gathers several struct perf_evsel object and performs functions on all of them.
-
-The exported API binds these objects together,
-for full reference see the libperf.7 man page.
-
-Examples
-========
-Examples aim to explain libperf functionality on simple use cases.
-They are based in on a checked out linux kernel git tree:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- $ cd tools/perf/lib/Documentation/tutorial/
- $ ls -d ex-*
- ex-1-compile ex-2-evsel-stat ex-3-evlist-stat
-
-ex-1-compile example
-====================
-This example shows the basic usage of *struct perf_cpu_map*,
-how to create it and display its cpus:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- $ cd ex-1-compile/
- $ make
- gcc -o test test.c -lperf
- $ ./test
- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
-
-
-The full code listing is here:
-
-.. code-block:: c
-
- 1 #include <perf/cpumap.h>
- 2
- 3 int main(int argc, char **Argv)
- 4 {
- 5 struct perf_cpu_map *cpus;
- 6 int cpu, tmp;
- 7
- 8 cpus = perf_cpu_map__new(NULL);
- 9
- 10 perf_cpu_map__for_each_cpu(cpu, tmp, cpus)
- 11 fprintf(stdout, "%d ", cpu);
- 12
- 13 fprintf(stdout, "\n");
- 14
- 15 perf_cpu_map__put(cpus);
- 16 return 0;
- 17 }
-
-
-First you need to include the proper header to have *struct perf_cpumap*
-declaration and functions:
-
-.. code-block:: c
-
- 1 #include <perf/cpumap.h>
-
-
-The *struct perf_cpumap* object is created by *perf_cpu_map__new* call.
-The *NULL* argument asks it to populate the object with the current online CPUs list:
-
-.. code-block:: c
-
- 8 cpus = perf_cpu_map__new(NULL);
-
-This is paired with a *perf_cpu_map__put*, that drops its reference at the end, possibly deleting it.
-
-.. code-block:: c
-
- 15 perf_cpu_map__put(cpus);
-
-The iteration through the *struct perf_cpumap* CPUs is done using the *perf_cpu_map__for_each_cpu*
-macro which requires 3 arguments:
-
-- cpu - the cpu numer
-- tmp - iteration helper variable
-- cpus - the *struct perf_cpumap* object
-
-.. code-block:: c
-
- 10 perf_cpu_map__for_each_cpu(cpu, tmp, cpus)
- 11 fprintf(stdout, "%d ", cpu);
-
-ex-2-evsel-stat example
-=======================
-
-TBD
-
-ex-3-evlist-stat example
-========================

-TBD
