Now, one can print the call chain for every encountered sys_exit event, e.g.: $ perf trace -e nanosleep --call-graph dwarf path/to/ex_sleep 1005.757 (1000.090 ms): ex_sleep/13167 nanosleep(...) = 0 syscall_slow_exit_work ([kernel.kallsyms]) syscall_return_slowpath ([kernel.kallsyms]) int_ret_from_sys_call ([kernel.kallsyms]) __nanosleep (/usr/lib/libc-2.23.so) [unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.6.0) QThread::sleep (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.6.0) main (path/to/ex_sleep) __libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc-2.23.so) _start (path/to/ex_sleep) Note that it is advised to increase the number of mmap pages to prevent event losses when using this new feature. Often, adding `-m 10M` to the `perf trace` invocation is enough. This feature is also available in strace when built with libunwind via `strace -k`. Performance wise, this solution is much better: $ time find path/to/linux &> /dev/null real 0m0.051s user 0m0.013s sys 0m0.037s $ time perf trace -m 800M --call-graph dwarf find path/to/linux &> /dev/null real 0m2.624s user 0m1.203s sys 0m1.333s $ time strace -k find path/to/linux &> /dev/null real 0m35.398s user 0m10.403s sys 0m23.173s Note that it is currently not possible to configure the print output. Adding such a feature, similar to what is available in `perf script` via its `--fields` knob can be added later on.

=============

|
|
NAME
|
|
----
|
|
perf-trace - strace inspired tool
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'perf trace'
|
|
'perf trace record'
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
This command will show the events associated with the target, initially
|
|
syscalls, but other system events like pagefaults, task lifetime events,
|
|
scheduling events, etc.
|
|
|
|
This is a live mode tool in addition to working with perf.data files like
|
|
the other perf tools. Files can be generated using the 'perf record' command
|
|
but the session needs to include the raw_syscalls events (-e 'raw_syscalls:*').
|
|
Alternatively, 'perf trace record' can be used as a shortcut to
|
|
automatically include the raw_syscalls events when writing events to a file.
|
|
|
|
The following options apply to perf trace; options to perf trace record are
|
|
found in the perf record man page.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS

|
|
|
|
-e::
|
|
--expr::
|
|

|
|
Prefixing with ! shows all syscalls but the ones specified. You may
|
|
need to escape it.
|

|
|
Record events on existing thread ID (comma separated list).
|
|
|
|
-u::
|
|
--uid=::
|
|
Record events in threads owned by uid. Name or number.
|
|
|
|
--filter-pids=::
|
|

|
|
|
|
-v::
|
|
--verbose=::
|
|

|
|
|
|
--no-inherit::
|
|
Child tasks do not inherit counters.
|
|
|
|
-m::
|
|
--mmap-pages=::
|
|
Number of mmap data pages (must be a power of two) or size
|
|
specification with appended unit character - B/K/M/G. The
|
|
size is rounded up to have nearest pages power of two value.
|
|
|
|
-C::
|
|
--cpu::
|
|
Collect samples only on the list of CPUs provided. Multiple CPUs can be provided as a
|
|
comma-separated list with no space: 0,1. Ranges of CPUs are specified with -: 0-2.
|
|
In per-thread mode with inheritance mode on (default), Events are captured only when
|
|
the thread executes on the designated CPUs. Default is to monitor all CPUs.
|
|
|
|
--duration:
|
|
Show only events that had a duration greater than N.M ms.
|
|
|
|
--sched:
|
|
Accrue thread runtime and provide a summary at the end of the session.
|
|
|
|
-i
|
|
--input
|
|
Process events from a given perf data file.
|
|
|
|
-T
|
|
--time
|
|
Print full timestamp rather time relative to first sample.
|
|
|
|
--comm::
|
|
Show process COMM right beside its ID, on by default, disable with --no-comm.
|
|
|
|
-s::
|
|
--summary::
|
|
Show only a summary of syscalls by thread with min, max, and average times
|
|
(in msec) and relative stddev.
|
|
|
|
-S::
|
|
--with-summary::
|
|
Show all syscalls followed by a summary by thread with min, max, and
|
|
average times (in msec) and relative stddev.
|
|
|
|
--tool_stats::
|
|
Show tool stats such as number of times fd->pathname was discovered thru
|
|
hooking the open syscall return + vfs_getname or via reading /proc/pid/fd, etc.
|
|
|
|
-F=[all|min|maj]::
|
|
--pf=[all|min|maj]::
|
|
Trace pagefaults. Optionally, you can specify whether you want minor,
|
|
major or all pagefaults. Default value is maj.
|
|
|
|
--syscalls::
|
|
Trace system calls. This options is enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
--call-graph [mode,type,min[,limit],order[,key][,branch]]::
|
|
Setup and enable call-graph (stack chain/backtrace) recording.
|
|
See `--call-graph` section in perf-record and perf-report
|
|
man pages for details. The ones that are most useful in 'perf trace'
|
|
are 'dwarf' and 'lbr', where available, try: 'perf trace --call-graph dwarf'.
|
|
|
|
--event::
|
|
Trace other events, see 'perf list' for a complete list.
|
|
|
|
--proc-map-timeout::
|
|
When processing pre-existing threads /proc/XXX/mmap, it may take a long time,
|
|
because the file may be huge. A time out is needed in such cases.
|
|
This option sets the time out limit. The default value is 500 ms.
|
|
|
|
PAGEFAULTS
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
When tracing pagefaults, the format of the trace is as follows:
|
|
|
|
<min|maj>fault [<ip.symbol>+<ip.offset>] => <addr.dso@addr.offset> (<map type><addr level>).
|
|
|
|
- min/maj indicates whether fault event is minor or major;
|
|
- ip.symbol shows symbol for instruction pointer (the code that generated the
|
|
fault); if no debug symbols available, perf trace will print raw IP;
|
|
- addr.dso shows DSO for the faulted address;
|
|
- map type is either 'd' for non-executable maps or 'x' for executable maps;
|
|
- addr level is either 'k' for kernel dso or '.' for user dso.
|
|
|
|
For symbols resolution you may need to install debugging symbols.
|
|
|
|
Please be aware that duration is currently always 0 and doesn't reflect actual
|
|
time it took for fault to be handled!
|
|
|
|
When --verbose specified, perf trace tries to print all available information
|
|
for both IP and fault address in the form of dso@symbol+offset.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
Trace only major pagefaults:
|
|
|
|
$ perf trace --no-syscalls -F
|
|
|
|
Trace syscalls, major and minor pagefaults:
|
|
|
|
$ perf trace -F all
|
|
|
|
1416.547 ( 0.000 ms): python/20235 majfault [CRYPTO_push_info_+0x0] => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0@0x61be0 (x.)
|
|
|
|
As you can see, there was major pagefault in python process, from
|
|
CRYPTO_push_info_ routine which faulted somewhere in libcrypto.so.
