4.3. Profiling
The following sections showcase scripts that profile kernel activity by monitoring function calls.
4.3.1. Counting Function Calls Made
This section describes how to identify how many times the system called a specific kernel function in a 30-second sample. Depending on your use of wildcards, you can also use this script to target multiple kernel functions.
functioncallcount.stp
#! /usr/bin/env stap # The following line command will probe all the functions # in kernel's memory management code: # # stap functioncallcount.stp "*@mm/*.c" probe kernel.function(@1).call { # probe functions listed on commandline called[probefunc()] <<< 1 # add a count efficiently } global called probe end { foreach (fn in called-) # Sort by call count (in decreasing order) # (fn+ in called) # Sort by function name printf("%s %d\n", fn, @count(called[fn])) exit() }
functioncallcount.stp takes the targeted kernel function as an argument. The argument supports wildcards, which enables you to target multiple kernel functions up to a certain extent.
The output of functioncallcount.stp contains the name of the function called and how many times it was called during the sample time (in alphabetical order). Example 4.11, “functioncallcount.stp Sample Output” contains an excerpt from the output of
stap functioncallcount.stp "*@mm/*.c"
