linux性能分析工具之火焰图

一.环境

1.1 jello@jello:~$ uname -a

Linux jello 4.4.0-98-generic #121-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 10 14:24:03 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

1.2 jello@jello-Inspiron-N4050:~$ lsb_release -a

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
Release: 16.04
Codename: xenial

二.准备工作.

2.1安装systemtap (火焰图依赖于此工具)

sudo apt-get install systemtap

2.2 查找内核对应的debug包

jello@jello$ uname -r
4.4.0-98-generic

那么接下来就是去http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/main/l/linux/下载对应的debug包,找4.4.0-98-generic一致的

2.3 下载对应的debug包

wget http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/main/l/linux/linux-image-4.4.0-98-generic-dbgsym_4.4.0-98.121_amd64.ddeb  (这是笔者自己找到的对应下载路径)

2.4 安装debug包

sudo dpkg -i linux-image-4.4.0-98-generic-dbgsym_4.4.0-98.121_amd64.ddeb

2.5 安装nginx

sudo apt-get install nginx

此时在浏览器中输入localhost即可出现以下信息表明安装ok

Welcome to nginx!

If you see this page, the nginx web server is successfully installed and working. Further configuration is required.

For online documentation and support please refer to nginx.org.
Commercial support is available at nginx.com.

Thank you for using nginx.

2.5 编写systemtap脚本nginx.systemtap,内容如下:

global s;
global quit=0;
probe timer.profile {
if (pid() == target()){
if (quit) {
foreach (i in s-) {
print_ustack(i);
printf("\t%d\n",@count(s[i]));
}
exit();
}
else {
s[ubacktrace()] <<< 1;
}
}
}
probe timer.s(20){
quit = 1
}

2.6 使用systemtap

sudo stap --ldd -d /usr/sbin/nginx --all-modules -D MAXMAPENTRIES=256 -D MAXACTION=20000 -D MAXTRACE=100 -D MAXSTRINGLEN=4096 -D MAXBACKTRACE=100 -x 2082 nginx.systemtap --vp 0001 > nginx.out

各参数解析:

--ldd，添加通过ldd解析出来的所有共享库符号表信息以便为probe到的用户空间二进制提供信息或者以-d选项列出来，注意：这会使得probe模块相当的大

-d /usr/sbin/nginx，为给定的模块(这里是nginx)添加符号表信息到内核对象模块,这可能使能这些模块或者程序的象征性traceback，即使他们没有显式probe到他们里面

--all-modules,相当于为所有当前被加载的模块指定'-dkernel'和‘-d'选项

-D MAXMAPENTRIES=256 ,添加给定的c预处理直接到模块makefile中,这些能被用来限制以下描述的参数,MAXMAPENTRIES=256,设定默认全局数组的最大默认长度为256，通过了解，是用来指定堆栈大小的  

-D MAXACTION=20000 设定单个probe hit包含执行的最大语句数目

-D MAXTRACE=100

-D MAXSTRINGLEN=4096 设定字符串最大长度

-D MAXBACKTRACE=100 设定栈帧的最大数目

-x 2082 设定target()的pid为2082

--vp 0001

笔者运行之后出现以下错误信息：

jello@jello:~$ sudo stap --ld -d /usr/sbin/nginx --all-modules -D MAXMAPENTRIES=256 -D MAXACTION=20000 -D MAXTRACE=100 -D MAXSTRINGLEN=4096 -D MAXBACKTRACE=100 -x 2082 nginx.systemtap --vp 0001 > nginx.out

Tip: /usr/share/doc/systemtap/README.Debian should help you get started

从错误信息来看是某个mod的某个字段不存在，所以断定是内核版本过高，但是systemtap版本过低导致的，因此升级systemtap版本

2.6.1 升级systemtap版本

2.6.1.1获取最新systemtap代码

方案一.git clone git://sourceware.org/git/systemtap.git  (下载速度比较慢,虽然配置翻墙了，仍然慢，推荐方案二)

方案二.tsocks wget https://sourceware.org/systemtap/ftp/releases/systemtap-3.2.tar.gz (tsocks使能wget通过翻墙下载源码，需要配置vpn进行翻墙)

以上方案均需翻墙，否则下载会非常慢!

2.6.1.2解压systemtap源码

tar xvf systemtap-3.2.tar.gz

2.6.1.3 切换到解压后的systemtap目录

cd systemtap-3.2

2.6.1.4 进行编译

2.6.1.4.1 根据README得知：

需要安装带有libdwfl库的elfutils (版本号需要大于或等于0.151)才能正常配合systemtap;

2.6.1.4.2 安装elfutils

sudo apt-get install elfutils

2.6.1.4.3 验证elfutils的版本信息

eu-objdump -V

2.6.1.4.4 安装必不可少的编译工具

sudo apt-get build-dep systemtap

2.6.1.4.5 创建编译目录

mkdir build

2.6.1.4.6 切换到build目录

cd build

2.6.1.4.7 进行编译前的配置

../configure

2.6.1.4.8 进行正式编译

make all

2.6.1.4.8.1 编译过程中出现以下问题

../bpf-translate.cxx:37:29: fatal error: elfutils/libebl.h: 没有那个文件或目录

2.6.1.4.8.2 查看bpf-translate.cxx

2.6.1.4.8.2 修改以上内容为:

typedef Dwelf_Strtab Stap_Strtab;

#define stap_strent_offset ebl_strtaboffset

从以上信息可知：以上修改反而会引入更多的问题,因此看一下代码

2.6.1.4.8.4 将sytemtap的代码还原

2.6.1.4.8.5 清掉build目录

rm -rf build

2.6.1.4.8.6 重新创建build目录

mkdir build

2.6.1.4.8.7 切换到build目录

cd build

2.6.1.4.8.8 查找elfutils目录

sudo find / |grep elfutils

笔者找到elfutils对应的头文件路径是/usr/include (默认使用apt-get install安装的软件对应的头文件在/usr/include目录下)

2.6.1.4.8.9 指定elfutils的头文件路径进行配置并且指定安装目录为/opt/

rm  * -rf (需要清一下之前在build目录下生成的文件)

../configure --with-elfutils=/usr/include --prefix=/opt/

出现以下错误信息:

从此信息中发现缺少configure，应该与elfutils有关,那么下载与当前elfutils对应的版本源代码

2.6.1.4.8.10 查看当前elfutils版本的方法:

eu-objdump -V

版本为0.165

2.6.1.4.8.11 获取elfutils的源码

笔者找到的0.165下载地址为:https://sourceware.org/elfutils/ftp/0.165/elfutils-0.165.tar.bz2

2.6.1.4.8.12 下载elfutils源码

tsocks wget https://sourceware.org/elfutils/ftp/0.165/elfutils-0.165.tar.bz2 (翻墙下载才快)

2.6.1.4.8.13解压elfutils

tar xvf elfutils-0.165.tar.bz2

2.6.1.4.8.14 指定elfutils源码的路径(笔者的elfutils源码路径在/home/jello/elfutils-0.165下)并指定systemtap的安装路径

../configure --with-elfutils=/home/jello/elfutils-0.165 --prefix=/opt/

2.6.1.4.8.15 开始编译

make

2.6.1.4.8.16 编译又出现错误

从以上信息可知:没有头文件sys/sdt.h,那么就查找sys/sdt.h的路径

2.6.1.4.8.17 查找sys/sdt.h的路径

sudo find /|grep "sys/sdt.h"

发现sys/sdt.h在systemtap-3.2的includes目录下

2.6.1.4.8.18 修改build/python目录下的Makefile

修改前的内容:

        -I$(abs_builddir)/../includes/sys修改后的内容:AM_CPPFLAGS = -I$(srcdir)/../includes \
        -I$(abs_builddir)/../includes/sys \ 　　-I$(abs_srcdir)/../includes

2.6.2.2 启动stap  (之前写过一个nginx.systemtap文件，记得指定该文件路径，笔者将nginx.systemtap放在了当前目录下，因此直接的指定文件）
