[PATCH V6 1/3] perf tool: Add sort key symoff for perf diff
From: Kan Liang
Date: Mon Dec 01 2014 - 09:59:55 EST
From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@xxxxxxxxx>
Sometime, especially debugging scaling issue, the function level diff
may be high granularity. The user may want to do deeper diff analysis
for some cache or lock issue. The "symoff" key can let the user sort
differential profile by ips.
Here is an example.
The source code for example_v1.c is as below:
noinline void f3(void)
{
volatile int i;
for (i = 0; i < 10000;) {
if(i%2)
i++;
else
i++;
}
}
noinline void f2(void)
{
volatile int a = 100, b, c;
for (b = 0; b < 10000; b++)
c = a * b;
}
noinline void f1(void)
{
f2();
f3();
}
int main()
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++)
f1();
}
We run the example twice. (That's a simplified case. Of course, we
cannot find the scaling issue here. )
[lk@localhost perf_diff]$ gcc example_v1.c -o example
[lk@localhost perf_diff]$ perf record -o example_symoff_1.data ./example
[ perf record: Woken up 4 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.808 MB example_symoff_1.data (~35314
samples) ]
[lk@localhost perf_diff]$ perf record -o example_symoff_2.data ./example
[ perf record: Woken up 4 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.814 MB example_symoff_2.data (~35580
samples) ]
[lk@localhost perf_diff]$ perf diff -s symoff example_symoff_1.data

The patch is seperated from "[PATCH V4 0/3] perf tool: perf diff sort
changes" patch set.
The first patch of the patch set has been merged.
The second patch to support perf diff different binaries was submitted by
another thread.
This is the third patch to support symoff.
Changes since V4:
- Seperate from old patch set
- Symoff print format
- Check build_id
- Update man page
No change since V5
