我的 perf
在运行 ARCH Linux ARM 的 Cortex-A15 Chromebook 上运行良好。
我更新了 pacman
以获得 gcc-5.3,它要求更新我的内核,所以我做了。
现在 perf
返回:
[cortex@alarm Speckle]$ perf stat uname -a
Linux alarm 3.8.11-3-ARCH #1 SMP Wed Jan 20 13:44:59 MST 2016 armv7l GNU/Linux
Performance counter stats for 'uname -a':
<not supported> task-clock
<not supported> context-switches
<not supported> cpu-migrations
<not supported> page-faults
<not supported> cycles
<not supported> stalled-cycles-frontend
<not supported> stalled-cycles-backend
<not supported> instructions
<not supported> branches
<not supported> branch-misses
0.002148765 seconds time elapsed
如果我运行 perf list
,它告诉我它应该支持这些事件:
[cortex@alarm Speckle]$ perf list
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
branch-instructions OR branches [Hardware event]
branch-misses [Hardware event]
bus-cycles [Hardware event]
cache-misses [Hardware event]
cache-references [Hardware event]
cpu-cycles OR cycles [Hardware event]
instructions [Hardware event]
ref-cycles [Hardware event]
并且检查我的内核配置,似乎 perf
应该仍然被支持。
[cortex@alarm Speckle]$ zgrep PERF /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_CGROUP_PERF=y
CONFIG_HAVE_PERF_EVENTS=y
CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC=y
CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y
# CONFIG_DEBUG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC is not set
CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS=y
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE is not set
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_GOV_PERFORMANCE=y
# CONFIG_CLS_U32_PERF is not set
# CONFIG_DEVFREQ_GOV_PERFORMANCE is not set
如果我尝试 ocount/oprofile,它似乎有效:
[cortex@alarm ~]$ ocount --events INST_RETIRED uname -a
Linux alarm 3.8.11-3-ARCH #1 SMP Wed Jan 20 13:44:59 MST 2016 armv7l GNU/Linux
Events were actively counted for 1598252 nanoseconds.
Event counts (actual) for /usr/bin/uname:
Event Count % time counted
INST_RETIRED 609,518 100.00
查看 pacman 的日志,好像这里就是内核变化发生的地方?

我搞砸了什么,如何恢复 perf
?
最佳答案
我找到的解决方案是从 perf 4.5-2
降级到 perf 4.3-1
。
cd /var/cache/pacman/pkg/
sudo pacman -U perf-4.3-1-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz
运行 perf stat ls
现在返回我期望的计数器。
