perf augmented_syscalls: Remove example hardcoded set of filtered pids
Now that 'perf trace' fills in that "filtered_pids" BPF map, remove the set of filtered pids used as an example to test that feature. That feature works like this: Starting a system wide 'strace' like 'perf trace' augmented session we noticed that lots of events take place for a pid, which ends up being the feedback loop of perf trace's syscalls being processed by the 'gnome-terminal' process: # perf trace -e tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c 0.391 ( 0.002 ms): gnome-terminal/2469 read(fd: 17</dev/ptmx>, buf: 0x564b79f750bc, count: 8176) = 453 0.394 ( 0.001 ms): gnome-terminal/2469 read(fd: 17</dev/ptmx>, buf: 0x564b79f75280, count: 7724) = -1 EAGAIN Resource temporarily unavailable 0.438 ( 0.001 ms): gnome-terminal/2469 read(fd: 4<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, buf: 0x7fffc696aeb0, count: 16) = 8 0.519 ( 0.001 ms): gnome-terminal/2469 read(fd: 17</dev/ptmx>, buf: 0x564b79f75280, count: 7724) = 114 0.522 ( 0.001 ms): gnome-terminal/2469 read(fd: 17</dev/ptmx>, buf: 0x564b79f752f1, count: 7611) = -1 EAGAIN Resource temporarily unavailable ^C So we can use --filter-pids to get rid of that one, and in this case what is being used to implement that functionality is that "filtered_pids" BPF map that the tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c created and that 'perf trace' bpf loader noticed and created a "struct bpf_map" associated that then got populated by 'perf trace': # perf trace --filter-pids 2469 -e tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c 0.020 ( 0.002 ms): gnome-shell/1663 epoll_pwait(epfd: 12<anon_inode:[eventpoll]>, events: 0x7ffd8f3ef960, maxevents: 32, sigsetsize: 8) = 1 0.025 ( 0.002 ms): gnome-shell/1663 read(fd: 24</dev/input/event4>, buf: 0x560c01bb8240, count: 8112) = 48 0.029 ( 0.001 ms): gnome-shell/1663 read(fd: 24</dev/input/event4>, buf: 0x560c01bb8258, count: 8088) = -1 EAGAIN Resource temporarily unavailable 0.032 ( 0.001 ms): gnome-shell/1663 read(fd: 24</dev/input/event4>, buf: 0x560c01bb8240, count: 8112) = -1 EAGAIN Resource temporarily unavailable 0.040 ( 0.003 ms): gnome-shell/1663 recvmsg(fd: 46<socket:[35893]>, msg: 0x7ffd8f3ef950) = -1 EAGAIN Resource temporarily unavailable 21.529 ( 0.002 ms): gnome-shell/1663 epoll_pwait(epfd: 5<anon_inode:[eventpoll]>, events: 0x7ffd8f3ef960, maxevents: 32, sigsetsize: 8) = 1 21.533 ( 0.004 ms): gnome-shell/1663 recvmsg(fd: 82<socket:[42826]>, msg: 0x7ffd8f3ef7b0, flags: DONTWAIT|CMSG_CLOEXEC) = 236 21.581 ( 0.006 ms): gnome-shell/1663 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: DRM_I915_GEM_BUSY, arg: 0x7ffd8f3ef060) = 0 21.605 ( 0.020 ms): gnome-shell/1663 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: DRM_I915_GEM_CREATE, arg: 0x7ffd8f3eeea0) = 0 21.626 ( 0.119 ms): gnome-shell/1663 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: DRM_I915_GEM_SET_DOMAIN, arg: 0x7ffd8f3eee94) = 0 21.746 ( 0.081 ms): gnome-shell/1663 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: DRM_I915_GEM_PWRITE, arg: 0x7ffd8f3eeea0) = 0 ^C Oops, yet another gnome process that is involved with the output that 'perf trace' generates, lets filter that out too: # perf trace --filter-pids 2469,1663 -e tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c ?
