如何在linux中通过linux源码安装最新的perf,使用perf data convert --force --to-json

本文主要是介绍如何在linux中通过linux源码安装最新的perf,使用perf data convert --force --to-json,对大家解决编程问题具有一定的参考价值,需要的程序猿们随着小编来一起学习吧!

perf可以针对进程进行profile,也可以对线程进行profile。再对进程profile之后,拿到perf.data,也可以修改为针对进程下的线程进行profile。所以照理来说应该是可以从perf.data中查看到有多少线程。
这也符合我们的一般要求,即有perf.data之后,可以针对线程显示火焰图。经过查询资料发现,perf中有perf data convert --force --to-json temp.json可以把perf.data转成json进行查看,但是要新版本的perf才有…这就恨坑爹,以为着我们需要自己安装最新的perf。

安装perf

我的系统是RedHat系列,对应的Debian系列需要自己修改一下install相关。
拉取最新的内核代码git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git --depth 1000

Makefile.config:201: *** Error: flex is missing on this system, please install it.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [sub-make] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

错误原因是没有flex,安装flex,yum install flex,安装flex之后还需要安装bison,yum install bison,安装完毕后重新LIBBABELTRACE=1 LIBBABELTRACE_DIR=/usr/local make即可,前面加环境变量是因为需要在这个环境变量下编译才能使用perf data做转换。否则会报错perf should be compiled with environment variables LIBBABELTRACE=1 and LIBBA。
之后便可以用perf data将采集到的数据转成json,这样就可以看到进程中有哪些线程,可以针对单线程做profile。

[root@ip-10-155-136-104 ~]# ./linux/tools/perf/perf record -g -F 99 -p 3169  ## 3169是进程id
[root@ip-10-155-136-104 ~]# ./linux/tools/perf/perf data convert --force --to-json temp.json

最后在写个脚本分析json文件即可。
参考:
perf.data转成json。
perf file format
perf.data-file-format.txt
