perf_event_open-如何监视多个事件

这有点棘手.

我们照常创建第一个柜台.此外,我们通过PERF_FORMAT_GROUP并且PERF_FORMAT_ID能够同时使用多个计数器.这个柜台将成为我们的组长.

struct perf_event_attr pea;
int fd1, fd2;
uint64_t id1, id2; 

memset(&pea, 0, sizeof(struct perf_event_attr));
pea.type = PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE;
pea.size = sizeof(struct perf_event_attr);
pea.cOnfig= PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES;
pea.disabled = 1;
pea.exclude_kernel = 1;
pea.exclude_hv = 1;
pea.read_format = PERF_FORMAT_GROUP | PERF_FORMAT_ID;
fd1 = syscall(__NR_perf_event_open, &pea, 0, -1, -1, 0);

接下来,我们检索第一个计数器的标识符:

ioctl(fd1, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID, &id1);

第二个(以及所有其他计数器)以相同的方式创建,只有一个例外:我们将fd1值作为组长参数传递:

memset(&pea, 0, sizeof(struct perf_event_attr));
pea.type = PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE;
pea.size = sizeof(struct perf_event_attr);
pea.cOnfig= PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS;
pea.disabled = 1;
pea.exclude_kernel = 1;
pea.exclude_hv = 1;
pea.read_format = PERF_FORMAT_GROUP | PERF_FORMAT_ID;
fd2 = syscall(__NR_perf_event_open, &pea, 0, -1, fd1, 0); // <-- here
ioctl(fd2, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID, &id2);

接下来,我们需要声明一个数据结构来一次读取多个计数器.您必须声明不同的字段集,具体取决于您传递给哪些标志perf_event_open.手册页提到了所有可能的字段.在我们的例子中,我们通过PERF_FORMAT_ID了添加id字段的标志.这将使我们能够区分不同的计数器.

struct read_format {
    uint64_t nr;
    struct {
        uint64_t value;
        uint64_t id;
    } values[/*2*/];
};

现在我们称之为标准分析ioctls:

ioctl(fd1, PERF_EVENT_IOC_RESET, PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP);
ioctl(fd1, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP);
do_something();
ioctl(fd1, PERF_EVENT_IOC_DISABLE, PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP);

最后,我们从组长文件描述符中读取计数器.两个计数器都以read_format我们声明的单个结构返回:

char buf[4096];
struct read_format* rf = (struct read_format*) buf;
uint64_t val1, val2;

read(fd1, buf, sizeof(buf));
for (i = 0; i nr; i++) {
  if (rf->values[i].id == id1) {
    val1 = rf->values[i].value;
  } else if (rf->values[i].id == id2) {
    val2 = rf->values[i].value;
  }
}
printf("cpu cycles: %"PRIu64"\n", val1);
printf("page faults: %"PRIu64"\n", val2);
