When the event is passed as list, the default events should be listed as
per 'perf mem record -e list'. Previous behavior is:
$ perf c2c record -e list
failed: event 'list' not found, use '-e list' to get list of available events
Usage: perf c2c record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf c2c record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
-e, --event <event> event selector. Use 'perf mem record -e list' to list available events
$
New behavior:
$ perf c2c record -e list
ldlat-loads : available
ldlat-stores : available
v3: is a rebase.
v2: addresses review comments by Jiri Olsa.

perf-c2c - Shared Data C2C/HITM Analyzer.
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'perf c2c record' [<options>] <command>
|
|
'perf c2c record' [<options>] -- [<record command options>] <command>
|
|
'perf c2c report' [<options>]

DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
C2C stands for Cache To Cache.
|
|
|
|
The perf c2c tool provides means for Shared Data C2C/HITM analysis. It allows
|
|
you to track down the cacheline contentions.
|
|
|
|
On x86, the tool is based on load latency and precise store facility events
|
|
provided by Intel CPUs. On PowerPC, the tool uses random instruction sampling
|
|
with thresholding feature.
|
|
|
|
These events provide:
|
|
- memory address of the access
|
|
- type of the access (load and store details)
|
|
- latency (in cycles) of the load access
|
|
|
|
The c2c tool provide means to record this data and report back access details
|
|
for cachelines with highest contention - highest number of HITM accesses.
|
|
|
|
The basic workflow with this tool follows the standard record/report phase.
|
|
User uses the record command to record events data and report command to
|
|
display it.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
perf c2c record --call-graph lbr.
|
|
Disabled by default. In common cases with call stack overflows,
|
|
it can recreate better call stacks than the default lbr call stack
|
|
output. But this approach is not full proof. There can be cases
|
|
where it creates incorrect call stacks from incorrect matches.
|
|
The known limitations include exception handing such as
|
|
setjmp/longjmp will have calls/returns not match.
|
|
|
|
C2C RECORD
|
|
----------
|
|
The perf c2c record command setup options related to HITM cacheline analysis
|
|
and calls standard perf record command.
|
|
|
|
Following perf record options are configured by default:
|
|
(check perf record man page for details)
|
|
|
|
-W,-d,--phys-data,--sample-cpu
|
|
|
|
Unless specified otherwise with '-e' option, following events are monitored by
|
|
default on x86:
|
|
|
|
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P
|
|
cpu/mem-stores/P
|
|
|
|
and following on PowerPC:
|
|
|
|
cpu/mem-loads/
|
|
cpu/mem-stores/
|
|
|
|
User can pass any 'perf record' option behind '--' mark, like (to enable
|
|
callchains and system wide monitoring):
|
|
|
|
$ perf c2c record -- -g -a
|
|
|
|
Please check RECORD OPTIONS section for specific c2c record options.
|
|
|
|
C2C REPORT
|
|
----------
|
|
The perf c2c report command displays shared data analysis. It comes in two
|
|
display modes: stdio and tui (default).
|
|
|
|
The report command workflow is following:
|
|
- sort all the data based on the cacheline address
|
|
- store access details for each cacheline
|
|
- sort all cachelines based on user settings
|
|
- display data
|
|
|
|
In general perf report output consist of 2 basic views:
|
|
1) most expensive cachelines list
|
|
2) offsets details for each cacheline
|
|
|
|
For each cacheline in the 1) list we display following data:
|
|
(Both stdio and TUI modes follow the same fields output)
|
|
|
|
Index
|
|
- zero based index to identify the cacheline
|
|
|
|
Cacheline
|
|
- cacheline address (hex number)
|
|
|
|
Total records
|
|
- sum of all cachelines accesses
|
|
|
|

|
|
- cacheline percentage of all Remote/Local HITM accesses
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
For each offset in the 2) list we display following data:

|
|
- % of Remote/Local HITM accesses for given offset within cacheline
|
|
|
|

The 'Node' field displays nodes that accesses given cacheline
|
|
offset. Its output comes in 3 flavors:
|
|
- node IDs separated by ','
|
|
- node IDs with stats for each ID, in following format:
|
|
Node{cpus %hitms %stores}
|

User can switch between above flavors with -N option or
|
|
use 'n' key to interactively switch in TUI mode.
