similar to: Can Xenoprof monitor Core events and Uncore Events simultaneously?

Hi, I ran xenoprof with the event mask LLC_MISSES:10000. This should be L2 cache misses on Core2 arch. After the run when I run opreport it displays : Counted *L2_RQSTS* events (number of L2 cache requests) with a unit mask of 0x41 (multiple flags) count 10000 LLC_MISSES:10000 | ..... My questions was whether the message is incorrect or the event mask is not being set correctly by oprofile. My

Hello everyone, I''m trying to run Xenoprof (Oprofile 0.9.4) in Gentoo Linux 2.6.21-xen (64 bit) on an AMD 64 system and am facing the following two issues: 1. Xenoprof complains about a write error, but starts and runs anyway. dom0 # opcontrol --start-daemon --active-domains=0 --event=CPU_CLK_UNHALTED:75000::1:1 --vmlinux=/usr/src/linux-2.6.21-xen-dom0/vmlinux

my system configuration xen 3.4.2, oprofile 0.9.5( xenoprof patched ), dom0( jeremy''s pvops kernel 2.6.31.6 - patched dullor''s xenoprof patch ), domU( vanilla kernel 2.6.32 with paravirt enabled ), distribution( ubuntu 9.10 ) In passive mode, xenoprof seems to work well, opreport showed good information. but, in active mode, it seems not to be done correctly. my command is

Hi All. I''m trying to use xenoprof in my Xeon machine with PVOPS (3.1.0 kernel) & xen 4.1.1. In the past, I had failed to use the xenoprof in this environment. (1 year ago) While baremetal booting shows the counter object in /dev/oprofile/0 (or 1,2,3) , booting with xen fails to create those objects. Of course, opcontrol command doesn''t work. It only prints

Dear experts, to monitor performance of applications on our private clouds I decided to use Xenoprof. For that, I installed patched OProfile 0.9.5 on Dom0 and DomU. Then, I started the daemon on Dom0 opcontrol --start-daemon --active-domains=1 --separate=library --event=LLC_MISSES:90000 and received the following error: /usr/local/bin/opcontrol: line 1171: echo write error: invalid

Hi all, Is anyone using oprofile? I'm getting segfaults from opreport at the moment, and I'm not sure if it is opreport, or just me. In case it is something just plain daft I am doing, here is how it goes: opcontrol --reset opcontrol --setup --no-vmlinux opcontrol --start ... now I run my program, /tmp/myprog ... opcontrol --dump opcontrol --shutdown then I run, opreport -l

Renato, When I tried running "opcontrol --start" (after previously running "opcontrol --start-daemon") in dom0, I get this error message: /usr/local/bin/opcontrol: line 1639: echo: write error: Operation not permitted and this message in the Xen console: (XEN) xenoprof: operation 9 failed for dom 0 (status : -1) It looks like opcontrol is trying to do this: echo 1 >

Nicholas Thierry-Mieg, Thank you for your reply on Saturday Apr 23,2011. Since then I have been trying to learn how to use oprofile 0.9.4 on Centos Linux 5.5. If I follow the following steps running as root, opcontrol --shutdown opcontrol --callgraph=7 opcontrol --image=/home/frankc/DQTTest5/MatchUpTest/lirh5g_deb/Mary48.exe opcontrol --start

Hi , I am getting following error when i try to run xenoprof /usr/local/bin/opcontrol: line 1082: echo: write error: Invalid argument Using 2.6+ OProfile kernel interface. Reading module info. Using log file /var/lib/oprofile/oprofiled.log Daemon started. what is this write error ? Any help is really appreciated. -John _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list

Hi I am trying to use oprofile with centos 6.0. I know that the debug-info for the kernel is not available, so I believe I used the correct switches to account for this. here is my script... # reset everything opcontrol --shutdown rm /root/.oprofile/da* opcontrol --separate=kernel --no-vmlinux opcontrol --event=CPU_CLK_UNHALTED:100000 opcontrol --start sleep 5

HI all : I got the message "Using timer interrupt." when trying the command "opcontrol --list-events". then I found infomation "xenoprof: Initialization failed. Intel processor model 44 for P6 class family is not supported“ after "xm dmesg". the TYPE OF CPUS here is Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5620 @ 2.40GHz. So does it really not support this

Hi, I want to use xenoprof to profile the overhead of the hypervisor. I patched the oprofile-0.9.5 using the patch from xenoprof.sourceforge.net Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 (lenny) Xen-4.0.1 + 2.6.32.27 (linux-2.6-pvops.git) Dom0 My platform is Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 960 @ 3.20GHz My problems are: In Dom0, But hardware performance counters don''t be mounted after initialization

Hi! I am trying to profile my custom 2.6.37 linux kernel with oprofile in centos 5.5, and i have encountered the following problem. (Before everyone starts shouting, I know that custom kernels are not supported by centos team, however I really need to run a modified version, due to a project concerning my MSc thesis. So i hope for your understanding :-) . I have build the kernel

Hi all, I am trying to do Xen / Kernel profiling. So I tried passive domain profile with oprofile tool in Dom0 as below. * Environment 1 + i7-2600 CPU + XCP 1.6 Base ISO + CentOS 6.3 Guest (HVM,PV) * Environment 2 + i7-2600 CPU + Xen hypervisor 4.2.1 + Konrad''s passive domain profiling patch applied Dom0 Kernel ( 2.6.32 jeremy branch & 3.2.44 mainline kernel) + CentOS 6.3

Hi, I want to get the performance data like documents <<Xenoprofoverview&Networking Performance Analysis>> (http://www.xensource.com/files/xs0106_xenoprof.pdf ). But how can I get the modules'' profile in kernel? Now I use command: Opcontrol --no-vmlinux --separate=kernel,cpu --start-daemon ...run benchmark Opcontrol --sutdown Opreport >list The report shows: CPU:

So, we just moved to some much faster hardware. intel q6600 CPU, 8Gb unbuffered ECC, ICH7 sata (2x1TB disks) - and we were irritated and puzzled to find that the new setup had really, really slow I/O. The odd thing is that the performance is fine if you just mount the LV directly from the Dom0... but if you xm block-attach it to the Dom0 and then mount it, you get 1/10th the speed. we are
