NAME
----
perf-ftrace - simple wrapper for kernel's ftrace functionality
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'perf ftrace' <command>
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The 'perf ftrace' command is a simple wrapper of kernel's ftrace
functionality. It only supports single thread tracing currently and
just reads trace_pipe in text and then write it to stdout.
The following options apply to perf ftrace.
OPTIONS
-------
-t::
--tracer=::
Tracer to use: function_graph or function.
-v::
--verbose=::
Verbosity level.
perf ftrace: Add support for --pid option The -p (--pid) option enables to trace existing process by its pid. Committer notes: Testing it: Using the function_graph tracer on a process that is just waiting for user input and thus will make 'perf ftrace' sit there waiting for that, then press any key on that mutt session and see what happens: # perf ftrace -t function_graph -p `pidof mutt` | head -40 2) 1.038 us | switch_mm_irqs_off(); ------------------------------------------ 2) <idle>-0 => mutt-3595 ------------------------------------------ 2) | finish_task_switch() { 2) | smp_irq_work_interrupt() { 2) | irq_enter() { 2) 0.180 us | rcu_irq_enter(); 2) 1.248 us | } 2) | __wake_up() { 2) 0.126 us | _raw_spin_lock_irqsave(); 2) | __wake_up_common() { 2) | pollwake() { 2) | default_wake_function() { 2) | try_to_wake_up() { 2) 0.662 us | _raw_spin_lock_irqsave(); 2) | select_task_rq_fair() { 2) 1.719 us | effective_load.isra.41(); 2) 1.343 us | effective_load.isra.41(); 2) | select_idle_sibling() { 2) 0.331 us | idle_cpu(); 2) 1.458 us | } 2) 8.350 us | } 2) 0.200 us | _raw_spin_lock(); 2) | ttwu_do_activate() { 2) | activate_task() { 2) 0.136 us | update_rq_clock.part.77(); 2) | enqueue_task_fair() { 2) | enqueue_entity() { 2) 0.146 us | update_curr(); 2) 0.330 us | account_entity_enqueue(); 2) 0.280 us | update_cfs_shares(); 2) 0.321 us | place_entity(); 2) 0.206 us | __enqueue_entity(); 2) 6.926 us | } 2) | enqueue_entity() { 2) 0.105 us | update_curr(); 2) 0.175 us | account_entity_enqueue(); 2) 0.531 us | update_cfs_shares(); # Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: kernel-team@lge.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170224011251.14946-1-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

-p::
--pid=::
Trace on existing process id (comma separated list).
-a::
--all-cpus::
Force system-wide collection. Scripts run without a <command>
normally use -a by default, while scripts run with a <command>
normally don't - this option allows the latter to be run in
system-wide mode.
-C::
--cpu=::
Only trace for the list of CPUs provided. Multiple CPUs can
be provided as a comma separated list with no space like: 0,1.
Ranges of CPUs are specified with -: 0-2.
Default is to trace on all online CPUs.
perf ftrace: Add option for function filtering The -T/--trace-funcs and -N/--notrace-funcs options are to specify functions to enable/disable tracing dynamically. The -G/--graph-funcs and -g/--nograph-funcs options are to set filters for function graph tracer. For example, to trace fault handling functions only: $ sudo perf ftrace -T *fault hello 0) | __do_page_fault() { 0) | handle_mm_fault() { 0) 2.117 us | __handle_mm_fault(); 0) 3.627 us | } 0) 7.811 us | } 0) | __do_page_fault() { 0) | handle_mm_fault() { 0) 2.014 us | __handle_mm_fault(); 0) 2.424 us | } 0) 2.951 us | } ... To trace all functions executed in __do_page_fault: $ sudo perf ftrace -G __do_page_fault hello 2) | __do_page_fault() { 3) 0.060 us | down_read_trylock(); 3) | find_vma() { 3) 0.075 us | vmacache_find(); 3) 0.053 us | vmacache_update(); 3) 1.246 us | } 3) | handle_mm_fault() { 3) 0.063 us | __rcu_read_lock(); 3) 0.056 us | mem_cgroup_from_task(); 3) 0.057 us | __rcu_read_unlock(); 3) | __handle_mm_fault() { 3) | filemap_map_pages() { 3) 0.058 us | __rcu_read_lock(); 3) | alloc_set_pte() { ... But don't want to show details in handle_mm_fault: $ sudo perf ftrace -G __do_page_fault -g handle_mm_fault hello 3) | __do_page_fault() { 3) 0.049 us | down_read_trylock(); 3) | find_vma() { 3) 0.048 us | vmacache_find(); 3) 0.041 us | vmacache_update(); 3) 0.680 us | } 3) 0.036 us | up_read(); 3) 4.547 us | } /* __do_page_fault */ ...

-T::
--trace-funcs=::
Only trace functions given by the argument. Multiple functions
can be given by using this option more than once. The function
argument also can be a glob pattern. It will be passed to
'set_ftrace_filter' in tracefs.
-N::
--notrace-funcs=::
Do not trace functions given by the argument. Like -T option,
this can be used more than once to specify multiple functions
(or glob patterns). It will be passed to 'set_ftrace_notrace'
in tracefs.
-G::
--graph-funcs=::
Set graph filter on the given function (or a glob pattern).
This is useful for the function_graph tracer only and enables
tracing for functions executed from the given function.
This can be used more than once to specify multiple functions.
It will be passed to 'set_graph_function' in tracefs.
-g::
--nograph-funcs=::
Set graph notrace filter on the given function (or a glob pattern).
Like -G option, this is useful for the function_graph tracer only
and disables tracing for function executed from the given function.
This can be used more than once to specify multiple functions.
It will be passed to 'set_graph_notrace' in tracefs.
-D::
--graph-depth=::
Set max depth for function graph tracer to follow
