[PATCH v11 tip 8/9] samples: bpf: IO latency analysis (iosnoop/heatmap)
From: Alexei Starovoitov
Date: Wed Mar 25 2015 - 15:50:57 EST
BPF C program attaches to blk_mq_start_request/blk_update_request kprobe events
to calculate IO latency.
For every completed block IO event it computes the time delta in nsec
and records in a histogram map: map[log10(delta)*10]++
User space reads this histogram map every 2 seconds and prints it as a 'heatmap'
using gray shades of text terminal. Black spaces have many events and white
spaces have very few events. Left most space is the smallest latency, right most
space is the largest latency in the range.
Usage:
$ sudo ./tracex3
and do 'sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null' in other terminal.
Observe IO latencies and how different activity (like 'make kernel') affects it.
Similar experiments can be done for network transmit latencies, syscalls, etc
'-t' flag prints the heatmap using normal ascii characters:
$ sudo ./tracex3 -t
heatmap of IO latency
# - many events with this latency
- few events
