H A D | bpf_prog_profiler.bpf.c | fa853c4b Tue Dec 29 15:42:14 CST 2020 Song Liu <songliubraving@fb.com> perf stat: Enable counting events for BPF programs
Introduce 'perf stat -b' option, which counts events for BPF programs, like:
[root@localhost ~]# ~/perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles -b 254 -I 1000 1.487903822 115,200 ref-cycles 1.487903822 86,012 cycles 2.489147029 80,560 ref-cycles 2.489147029 73,784 cycles 3.490341825 60,720 ref-cycles 3.490341825 37,797 cycles 4.491540887 37,120 ref-cycles 4.491540887 31,963 cycles
The example above counts 'cycles' and 'ref-cycles' of BPF program of id 254. This is similar to bpftool-prog-profile command, but more flexible.
'perf stat -b' creates per-cpu perf_event and loads fentry/fexit BPF programs (monitor-progs) to the target BPF program (target-prog). The monitor-progs read perf_event before and after the target-prog, and aggregate the difference in a BPF map. Then the user space reads data from these maps.
A new 'struct bpf_counter' is introduced to provide a common interface that uses BPF programs/maps to count perf events.
Committer notes:
Removed all but bpf_counter.h includes from evsel.h, not needed at all.
Also BPF map lookups for PERCPU_ARRAYs need to have as its value receive buffer passed to the kernel libbpf_num_possible_cpus() entries, not evsel__nr_cpus(evsel), as the former uses /sys/devices/system/cpu/possible while the later uses /sys/devices/system/cpu/online, which may be less than the 'possible' number making the bpf map lookup overwrite memory and cause hard to debug memory corruption.
We need to continue using evsel__nr_cpus(evsel) when accessing the perf_counts array tho, not to overwrite another are of memory :-)

Also BPF map lookups for PERCPU_ARRAYs need to have as its value receive buffer passed to the kernel libbpf_num_possible_cpus() entries, not evsel__nr_cpus(evsel), as the former uses /sys/devices/system/cpu/possible while the later uses /sys/devices/system/cpu/online, which may be less than the 'possible' number making the bpf map lookup overwrite memory and cause hard to debug memory corruption.
We need to continue using evsel__nr_cpus(evsel) when accessing the perf_counts array tho, not to overwrite another are of memory :-)

H A D | stat-display.c | fa853c4b Tue Dec 29 15:42:14 CST 2020 Song Liu <songliubraving@fb.com> perf stat: Enable counting events for BPF programs
Introduce 'perf stat -b' option, which counts events for BPF programs, like:
[root@localhost ~]# ~/perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles -b 254 -I 1000 1.487903822 115,200 ref-cycles 1.487903822 86,012 cycles 2.489147029 80,560 ref-cycles 2.489147029 73,784 cycles 3.490341825 60,720 ref-cycles 3.490341825 37,797 cycles 4.491540887 37,120 ref-cycles 4.491540887 31,963 cycles
The example above counts 'cycles' and 'ref-cycles' of BPF program of id 254. This is similar to bpftool-prog-profile command, but more flexible.
'perf stat -b' creates per-cpu perf_event and loads fentry/fexit BPF programs (monitor-progs) to the target BPF program (target-prog). The monitor-progs read perf_event before and after the target-prog, and aggregate the difference in a BPF map. Then the user space reads data from these maps.
A new 'struct bpf_counter' is introduced to provide a common interface that uses BPF programs/maps to count perf events.
Committer notes:
Removed all but bpf_counter.h includes from evsel.h, not needed at all.
Also BPF map lookups for PERCPU_ARRAYs need to have as its value receive buffer passed to the kernel libbpf_num_possible_cpus() entries, not evsel__nr_cpus(evsel), as the former uses /sys/devices/system/cpu/possible while the later uses /sys/devices/system/cpu/online, which may be less than the 'possible' number making the bpf map lookup overwrite memory and cause hard to debug memory corruption.
