Subject[PATCH v4 0/3] perf: add support for analyzing events for containers
From
Date
Currently, there is no trivial mechanism to analyze events based on
containers. perf -G can be used, but it will not filter events for the
containers created after perf is invoked, making it difficult to assess/
analyze performance issues of multiple containers at once.

This patch-set overcomes this limitation by using cgroup identifier as
container unique identifier. A new PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES event that
records namespaces related info is introduced, from which the cgroup
namespace's device & inode numbers are used as cgroup identifier. This
is based on the assumption that each container is created with it's own
cgroup namespace allowing assessment/analysis of multiple containers
using cgroup identifier.

The first patch introduces PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES in kernel while the
second patch makes the corresponding changes in perf tool to read this
PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES events. The third patch adds a cgroup identifier
column in perf report, which contains the cgroup namespace's device and
inode numbers.

Changes from v3:
* Saving device number for each inode.
* cgroup identifier includes device number along with inode number.

perf: add PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES to include namespaces related info
perf tool: add PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES to include namespaces related info
perf tool: add cgroup identifier entry in perf report
