[PATCH v2 20/21] libtracefs: Add CAST() syntax to SQL parsing for histogram types
From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Tue Aug 03 2021 - 00:25:56 EST
From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Use CAST() command of SQL to define the type of a field for a histogram.
For example:
SELECT common_pid, id FROM sys_enter
Will only create:
echo 'hist:keys=common_pid,id' > events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter
that produces the uninteresting:
{ common_pid: 1428 } hitcount: 2
{ common_pid: 1427 } hitcount: 2
{ common_pid: 13684 } hitcount: 2
{ common_pid: 1534 } hitcount: 3
{ common_pid: 1715 } hitcount: 3
{ common_pid: 1334 } hitcount: 4
Use CAST to add the conversions:
SELECT CAST(common_pid AS comm), CAST(id as syscall) FROM sys_enter
That creates:
echo 'hist:keys=common_pid.execname,id.syscall' > events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter
Which produces the much more informative histogram:
{ common_pid: bash [ 18116], id: sys_setpgid [109] } hitcount: 1
{ common_pid: cat [ 18116], id: sys_munmap [ 11] } hitcount: 1
{ common_pid: cat [ 18115], id: sys_exit_group [231] } hitcount: 1
{ common_pid: cat [ 18115], id: sys_fadvise64 [221] } hitcount: 1
{ common_pid: wpa_supplicant [ 1437], id: sys_select [ 23] } hitcount: 1
{ common_pid: gmain [ 1715], id: sys_poll [ 7] } hitcount: 1
{ common_pid: cat [ 18116], id: sys_fadvise64 [221] } hitcount: 1
{ common_pid: gmain [ 1534], id: sys_poll [ 7] } hitcount: 1
{ common_pid: bash [ 18117], id: sys_getpid [ 39] } hitcount: 1
{ common_pid: gmain [ 13684], id: sys_poll [ 7] } hitcount: 1
{ common_pid: bash [ 1768], id: sys_dup2 [ 33] } hitcount: 1

+
+Note, string fields may not be cast.
+
+The possible types to cast to are:
+
+*HEX* - convert the value to use hex and not decimal
+
+*SYM* - convert a pointer to symbolic (kallsyms values)
+
+*SYM-OFFSET* - convert a pointer to symbolic and include the offset.
+
+*SYSCALL* - convert the number to the mapped system call name
+
+*EXECNAME* or *COMM* - can only be used with the common_pid field. Will show the task
+name of the process.
+
+*LOG* or *LOG2* - bucket the key values in a log 2 values (1, 2, 3-4, 5-8, 9-16, 17-32, ...)
