NAME

       perf-iostat - Show I/O performance metrics

SYNOPSIS

       perf iostat list
       perf iostat <ports> -- <command> [<options>]

DESCRIPTION

       Mode is intended to provide four I/O performance metrics per each PCIe root port:

       •   Inbound Read - I/O devices below root port read from the host memory, in MB

       •   Inbound Write - I/O devices below root port write to the host memory, in MB

       •   Outbound Read - CPU reads from I/O devices below root port, in MB

       •   Outbound Write - CPU writes to I/O devices below root port, in MB

OPTIONS

       <command>...
           Any command you can specify in a shell.

       list
           List all PCIe root ports.

       <ports>
           Select the root ports for monitoring. Comma-separated list is supported.

EXAMPLES

        1. List all PCIe root ports (example for 2-S platform):

               $ perf iostat list
               S0-uncore_iio_0<0000:00>
               S1-uncore_iio_0<0000:80>
               S0-uncore_iio_1<0000:17>
               S1-uncore_iio_1<0000:85>
               S0-uncore_iio_2<0000:3a>
               S1-uncore_iio_2<0000:ae>
               S0-uncore_iio_3<0000:5d>
               S1-uncore_iio_3<0000:d7>

        2. Collect metrics for all PCIe root ports:

               $ perf iostat -- dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/nvme0n1 bs=1M oflag=direct
               357708+0 records in
               357707+0 records out
               375083606016 bytes (375 GB, 349 GiB) copied, 215.974 s, 1.7 GB/s

               Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                  port             Inbound Read(MB)    Inbound Write(MB)    Outbound Read(MB)   Outbound Write(MB)
               0000:00                    1                    0                    2                    3

               0000:17               352552                   43                    0                   21

               0000:3a                    3                    0                    0                    0

               0000:5d                    0                    0                    0                    0
               0000:d7                    0                    0                    0                    0

        3. Collect metrics for comma-separated list of PCIe root ports:

               $ perf iostat 0000:17,0:3a -- dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/nvme0n1 bs=1M oflag=direct
               357708+0 records in
               357707+0 records out
               375083606016 bytes (375 GB, 349 GiB) copied, 197.08 s, 1.9 GB/s

               Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                  port             Inbound Read(MB)    Inbound Write(MB)    Outbound Read(MB)   Outbound Write(MB)
               0000:17               358559                   44                    0                   22
