Hi All, I follow this guide to do test on i.MX8MP, https://elinux.org/images/b/b3/Hardware_Assisted_Tracing_on_ARM.pdf I could see dump with perf report --dump (attached), but when I use perf report --stdio, I met Error: The perf.data data has no samples! # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # The perf I use to dump data is not compiled with CORESIGHT support, but the host perf has been compiled with CORESIGHT support. Do you know what might cause this issue? Thanks, Peng.

Two parallel perf sessions tracing processes on two CPUs to shared sink?

by Wojciech Żmuda

Hello, I'm exploring possibilities of tracing two concurrent programs pinned to two CPU cores, sharing the same sink. I tried to spawn two concurrent perf sessions but my results are not satisfying, so I wonder if such possibility exists at all. # taskset -c 1 ./progA # taskset -c 2 ./progB # perf record -e cs_etm/timestamp,@tmc_etr0/u --filter "filter symbolA @./progA" --per-thread --pid $progA_pid # perf record -e cs_etm/timestamp,@tmc_etr0/u --filter "filter symbolA @./progA" --per-thread --pid $progB_pid If progA and progB mostly sleep - I get trace data for both, which is fine. However If at least one of the programs gets more CPU-intensive (loops with arithmetic computations inside, no explicit sleeping nor waiting or IO), I get trace only for the more intensive one. If both are intensive, it seems random which one gets traced. This observations suggests ETR buffer overflow. However, if CPU-intensive versions of progA and progB are scheduled on the same CPU - this method seem to work. I would expect ETR buffer being insufficient in this scenario as well. To enlarge the ETR buffer I experimented with the -m flag, but I'm unable to use more than -m,16M. Independent RSZ polling shows that this value gets programmed, but anything above 16 MB makes TMC-ETR driver complain that cma_alloc failed to get that amount of memory. Anyway, enlarging buffer to 16MB doesn't seem to affect my issue. With bigger buffer my observations are identical. Those observations make me suspect that another technical obstacle might exists, beside possible buffer overflow. I also tried with CPU-wide mode and it seem to work: taskset -c 1 ./progA taskset -c 2 ./progB perf record -e cs_etm/timestamp,@tmc_etr0/u -C 2,3 but this approach is quite limited as filters don't work in CPU-wide mode and perf itself is also traced (which is weird, as I tried setting CPU affinity of perf-record with taskset as well - didn't help). To wrap-up: 1. Is it possible to trace two programs with two perf-record sessions at the same time, sharing a sink? 2. Is it possible to enlarge TMC-ETR buffer above 16MB? I guess SG mode might be an option here, but as I can't really modify my kernel and DT right now. Perhaps there's a possibility to make the kernel allocator work past the 16MB boundary? Thank you and best regards, Wojciech PS Sorry I don't proceed with the Coresight@Zynq MPSoC support I started some time ago. My access to the board is limited recently and it's hard to proceed with kernel development remotely. I hope to get back to it soon.

[PATCH v5 0/5] perf cs-etm: Fix synthesizing instruction samples

by Leo Yan

This patch series is to address issues for synthesizing instruction samples, especially when the instruction sample period is small enough, the current logic cannot synthesize multiple instruction samples within one instruction range packet. Patch 0001 is to swap packets for instruction samples, so this allow option '--itrace=iNNN' can work well. Patch 0002 avoids to reset the last branches for every instruction sample; if reset the last branches for every time generating sample, the later samples in the same range packet cannot use the last branches anymore. Patch 0003 is the fixing for handling different instruction periods, especially for small sample period. Patch 0004 is an optimization for copying last branches; it only copies last branches once if the instruction samples share the same last branches. Patch 0005 is a minor fix for unsigned variable comparison to zero. This patch set has been rebased on the latest perf/core branch; and verified on Juno board with below commands: # perf script --itrace=i2 # perf script --itrace=i2il16 # perf inject --itrace=i2il16 -i perf.data -o perf.data.new # perf inject --itrace=i100il16 -i perf.data -o perf.data.new Changes from v4: * Added Mike's review tag for patch 03; * Added Mathieu's review tags for all patches. Changes from v3: * Refactored patch 0001 with new function cs_etm__packet_swap() (Mike); * Refined instruction sample generation flow with single while loop, which completely uses Mike's suggestions (Mike); * Added Mike's review tags for patch 01/02/04/05. Changes from v2: * Added patch 0001 which is to fix swapping packets for instruction samples; * Refined minor commit logs and comments; * Rebased on the latest perf/core branch. Changes from v1: * Rebased patch set on perf/core branch with latest commit 9fec3cd5fa4a ("perf map: Check if the map still has some refcounts on exit").

[PATCH 11/23] perf cs-etm: Correct synthesizing instruction samples

by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

From: Leo Yan <leo.yan(a)linaro.org> When 'etm->instructions_sample_period' is less than 'tidq->period_instructions', the function cs_etm__sample() cannot handle this case properly with its logic. Let's see below flow as an example: - If we set itrace option '--itrace=i4', then function cs_etm__sample() has variables with initialized values: tidq->period_instructions = 0 etm->instructions_sample_period = 4 - When the first packet is coming: packet->instr_count = 10; the number of instructions executed in this packet is 10, thus update period_instructions as below: tidq->period_instructions = 0 + 10 = 10 instrs_over = 10 - 4 = 6 offset = 10 - 6 - 1 = 3 tidq->period_instructions = instrs_over = 6 - When the second packet is coming: packet->instr_count = 10; in the second pass, assume 10 instructions in the trace sample again: tidq->period_instructions = 6 + 10 = 16 instrs_over = 16 - 4 = 12 offset = 10 - 12 - 1 = -3 -> the negative value tidq->period_instructions = instrs_over = 12 So after handle these two packets, there have below issues: The first issue is that cs_etm__instr_addr() returns the address within the current trace sample of the instruction related to offset, so the offset is supposed to be always unsigned value. But in fact, function cs_etm__sample() might calculate a negative offset value (in handling the second packet, the offset is -3) and pass to cs_etm__instr_addr() with u64 type with a big positive integer. The second issue is it only synthesizes 2 samples for sample period = 4. In theory, every packet has 10 instructions so the two packets have total 20 instructions, 20 instructions should generate 5 samples (4 x 5 = 20). This is because cs_etm__sample() only calls once cs_etm__synth_instruction_sample() to generate instruction sample per range packet. This patch fixes the logic in function cs_etm__sample(); the basic idea for handling coming packet is: - To synthesize the first instruction sample, it combines the left instructions from the previous packet and the head of the new packet; then generate continuous samples with sample period; - At the tail of the new packet, if it has the rest instructions, these instructions will be left for the sequential sample.

[PATCH 10/23] perf cs-etm: Continuously record last branch

by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

From: Leo Yan <leo.yan(a)linaro.org> Every time synthesize instruction sample, the last branch recording will be reset. This is fine if the instruction period is big enough, for example if use the option '--itrace=i100000', the last branch array is reset for every sample with 100000 instructions per period; before generate the next instruction sample, there has the sufficient packets coming to fill the last branch array. On the other hand, if set a very small period, the packets will be significantly reduced between two continuous instruction samples, thus the last branch array is almost empty for new instruction sample by frequently resetting. To allow the last branches to work properly for any instruction periods, this patch avoids to reset the last branch for every instruction sample and only reset it when flush the trace data. The last branches will be reset only for two cases, one is for trace starting, another case is for discontinuous trace; other cases can keep recording last branches for continuous instruction samples.

[PATCH v5 0/6] Describe CoreSight topology using sysfs links

by Mike Leach

The connections between CoreSight sources, links and sinks is not obvious without documentation or access to the device tree / ACPI definitions for the platform. This patchset provides sysfs links to enable the user to follow the trace patch from source to sink. Components in the trace path are updated to have a connections sysfs group, which collates all the links for that component. The CTI components which exist aside from the main trace patch, also have an added connections directory showing connections to other CoreSight devices. This patchset applies on top of the recent CTI v10 patchset [1]. Adaptation of an original patchset [2] from Suzuki, reusing 2 patches unchanged with update to 3rd adapt to the new common code for trace path and CTI component links & add a default connections group. Tested on Juno r1, DB410c; kernel 5.6-rc3 [1] http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2020-February/714140.… [2] https://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/coresight/2019-May/002803.html Changes since v4: 1) Rebased for v10 CTI set[1]. 2) Code for adding in the CTI->[other CoreSight] links revised to ensure consistent create / release process.
