.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
The \fBlockstat\fR utility gathers and displays kernel locking and profiling
|
|
statistics. \fBlockstat\fR allows you to specify which events to watch (for
|
|
example, spin on adaptive mutex, block on read access to rwlock due to waiting
|
|
writers, and so forth) how much data to gather for each event, and how to
|
|
display the data. By default, \fBlockstat\fR monitors all lock contention
|
|
events, gathers frequency and timing data about those events, and displays the
|
|
data in decreasing frequency order, so that the most common events appear
|
|
first.
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
\fBlockstat\fR gathers data until the specified command completes. For example,
|
|
to gather statistics for a fixed-time interval, use \fBsleep\fR(1) as the
|
|
command, as follows:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
\fBexample#\fR \fBlockstat\fR \fBsleep\fR \fB5\fR
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
When the \fB-I\fR option is specified, \fBlockstat\fR establishes a
|
|
per-processor high-level periodic interrupt source to gather profiling data.
|
|
The interrupt handler simply generates a \fBlockstat\fR event whose caller is
|
|
the interrupted PC (program counter). The profiling event is just like any
|
|
other \fBlockstat\fR event, so all of the normal \fBlockstat\fR options are
|
|
applicable.
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
\fBlockstat\fR relies on DTrace to modify the running kernel's text to
|
|
intercept events of interest. This imposes a small but measurable overhead on
|
|
all system activity, so access to \fBlockstat\fR is restricted to super-user by
|
|
default. The system administrator can permit other users to use \fBlockstat\fR
|
|
by granting them additional DTrace privileges. Refer to the \fISolaris Dynamic
|
|
Tracing Guide\fR for more information about DTrace security features.

\fBfoo()\fR (along with any work done by \fBfoo()\fR itself). The \fB-g\fR
|
|
option works by counting the total number of stack frames in which each
|
|
function appears. This implies two things: (1) the data reported by \fB-g\fR
|
|
can be misleading if the stack traces are not deep enough, and (2) functions
|
|
that are called recursively might show greater than 100% activity. In light of

issue (1), the default data gathering mode when using \fB-g\fR is \fB-s\fR

For basic profiling, we don't care whether the profiling interrupt sampled

\fBfoo()\fR\fB+0x4c\fR or \fBfoo()\fR\fB+0x78\fR; we care only that it sampled
|
|
somewhere in \fBfoo()\fR, so we use \fB-k\fR. The \fBCPU\fR and \fBPIL\fR
|
|
aren't relevant to basic profiling because we are measuring the system as a

whole, not a particular \fBCPU\fR or interrupt level, so we use \fB-W\fR.

\fBExample 5 \fRGenerated-load Profiling
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
In the example above, 5% of the samples were in \fBpoll()\fR. This tells us how
|
|
much time was spent inside \fBpoll()\fR itself, but tells us nothing about how
|
|
much work was \fBgenerated\fR by \fBpoll()\fR; that is, how much time we spent
|
|
in functions called by \fBpoll()\fR. To determine that, we use the \fB-g\fR
|
|
option. The example below shows that although \fBpolltest\fR spends only 5% of
|
|
its time in \fBpoll()\fR itself, \fBpoll()\fR-induced work accounts for 34% of
|
|
the load.
|
|
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
Note that the functions that generate the profiling interrupt
|
|
(\fBlockstat_intr()\fR, \fBcyclic_fire()\fR, and so forth) appear in every
|
|
stack trace, and therefore are considered to have generated 100% of the load.
|
|
This illustrates an important point: the generated load percentages do
|
|
\fBnot\fR add up to 100% because they are not independent. If 72% of all stack
|
|
traces contain both \fBfoo()\fR and \fBbar()\fR, then both \fBfoo()\fR and
|
|
\fBbar()\fR are 72% load generators.

The profiling support provided by \fBlockstat\fR \fB-I\fR replaces the old (and
|
|
undocumented) \fB/usr/bin/kgmon\fR and \fB/dev/profile\fR.
|
|
.sp

|
.LP
|
|
Tail-call elimination can affect call sites. For example, if
|
|
\fBfoo()\fR\fB+0x50\fR calls \fBbar()\fR and the last thing \fBbar()\fR does is
|
|
call \fBmutex_exit()\fR, the compiler can arrange for \fBbar()\fR to branch to
|
|
\fBmutex_exit()\fRwith a return address of \fBfoo()\fR\fB+0x58\fR. Thus, the
|
|
\fBmutex_exit()\fR in \fBbar()\fR will appear as though it occurred at
|
|
\fBfoo()\fR\fB+0x58\fR.
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
The \fBPC\fR in the stack frame in which an interrupt occurs can be bogus
|
|
because, between function calls, the compiler is free to use the return address
|
|
register for local storage.
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
When using the \fB-I\fR and \fB-s\fR options together, the interrupted PC will
|
|
usually not appear anywhere in the stack since the interrupt handler is entered
|
|
asynchronously, not by a function call from that \fBPC\fR.
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
The \fBlockstat\fR technology is provided on an as-is basis. The format and
|
|
content of \fBlockstat\fR output reflect the current Solaris kernel
|
|
implementation and are therefore subject to change in future releases.
