perf tools updates for 7.1
perf report:
- Add 'comm_nodigit' sort key to combine similar threads that only have
different numbers in the comm. In the following example, the
'comm_nodigit' will have samples from all threads starting with
"bpfrb/" into an entry "bpfrb/<N>".
$ perf report -s comm_nodigit,comm -H

- Support flat layout for symfs. The --symfs option is to specify the
location of debugging symbol files. The default 'hierarchy' layout
would search the symbol file using the same path of the original file
under the symfs root. The new 'flat' layout would search only in the
root directory.
- Update 'simd' sort key for ARM SIMD flags to cover ASE/SME and more
predicate flags.
perf stat:
- Add --pmu-filter option to select specific PMUs. This would be
useful when you measure metrics from multiple instance of uncore PMUs
with similar names.

tools build: Fix feature test for rust compiler
Currently a dummy rust code is compiled to detect if the rust feature
could be enabled. It turns out that in this case rust emits a dependency
file without any external references:
/perf/feature/test-rust.d: test-rust.rs
/perf/feature/test-rust.bin: test-rust.rs
test-rust.rs:
This can lead to a situation, when rustc was removed after a successful build,
but the build process still thinks it's there and the feature is enabled on
subsequent runs.
Instead simply check the compiler presence to detect the feature, as
suggested by Arnaldo.
This way no actual test-rust.bin will be created, meaning the feature
check will not be cached and always performed. That's exactly what we
want, and the overhead of doing this every time is minimal.
Tested with multiple rounds of install/remove of the rust package.

tools build: Fix the common set of features test wrt libopenssl
The recent introduction of the libopenssl feature test forgot to add the
-lssl to the test-all.o target, which made it always fail, fix it.
Noticed by looking at this file after building:
$ cat /tmp/build/perf-tools/feature/test-all.make.output
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccBhO8WH.ltrans0.ltrans.o: in function `main':
/home/acme/git/perf-tools/tools/build/feature/test-libopenssl.c:6:(.text.startup+0x2ed): undefined reference to `OPENSSL_init_ssl'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
$
It was added only to the individual ssl test, that works:
$ cat /tmp/build/perf-tools/feature/test-libopenssl.make.output
$ ldd /tmp/build/perf-tools/feature/test-libopenssl.bin | grep ssl
libssl.so.3 => /usr/lib64/libssl.so.3 (0x00007fb81eda8000)

[GIT PULL] perf tools changes for v6.19
Perf event/metric description
-----------------------------
Unify all event and metric descriptions in JSON format.
Now event parsing and handling is greatly simplified by that.
From users point of view, perf list will provide richer
information about hardware events like the following.
$ perf list hw
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e or -M):
legacy hardware:
branch-instructions
[Retired branch instructions [This event is an alias of branches]. Unit: cpu]
branch-misses
[Mispredicted branch instructions. Unit: cpu]
branches
[Retired branch instructions [This event is an alias of branch-instructions]. Unit: cpu]
bus-cycles
[Bus cycles,which can be different from total cycles. Unit: cpu]
cache-misses
[Cache misses. Usually this indicates Last Level Cache misses; this is intended to be used in conjunction with the
PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_REFERENCES event to calculate cache miss rates. Unit: cpu]
cache-references
[Cache accesses. Usually this indicates Last Level Cache accesses but this may vary depending on your CPU. This may include
prefetches and coherency messages; again this depends on the design of your CPU. Unit: cpu]
cpu-cycles
[Total cycles. Be wary of what happens during CPU frequency scaling [This event is an alias of cycles]. Unit: cpu]
cycles
[Total cycles. Be wary of what happens during CPU frequency scaling [This event is an alias of cpu-cycles]. Unit: cpu]
instructions
[Retired instructions. Be careful,these can be affected by various issues,most notably hardware interrupt counts. Unit: cpu]
ref-cycles
[Total cycles; not affected by CPU frequency scaling. Unit: cpu]
But most notable changes would be in the perf stat. On the right side,
the default metrics are better named and aligned. :)

Deferred unwinding support
--------------------------
With the kernel support [1], perf can use deferred callchains for
userspace stack trace with frame pointers like below:
$ perf record --call-graph fp,defer ...
This will be transparent to users when it comes to other commands like
perf report and perf script. They will merge the deferred callchains to
the previous samples as if they were collected together.
[1] https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/c69993ecdd4dfde2b7da08b022052a33b203da07
ARM SPE updates
---------------
* Extensive enhancements to support various kinds of memory operations
including GCS, MTE allocation tags, memcpy/memset, register access,
and SIMD operations.
* Add inverted data source filter (inv_data_src_filter) support to
exclude certain data sources.
* Improve documentation.
Vendor event updates
--------------------
* Intel: Updated event files for Sierra Forest, Panther Lake, Meteor Lake,
Lunar Lake, Granite Rapids, and others.
* Arm64: Added metrics for i.MX94 DDR PMU and Cortex-A720AE definitions.
* RISC-V: Added JSON support for T-HEAD C920V2.
Misc
----
* Improve pointer tracking in data type profiling. It'd give better
output when the variable is using container_of() to convert type.
* Annotation support for perf c2c report in TUI. Press 'a' key to
enter annotation view from cacheline browser window. This will show
which instruction is causing the cacheline contention.
* Lots of fixes and test coverage improvements!

tool build: Remove __get_cpuid feature test
This feature test is no longer used so remove. The function tested by the feature test is used in: tools/power/x86/x86_energy_perf_policy/x86_energy_perf_policy.c however, the Makefile just assumes the presence of the function and doesn't perform a build feature test for it.

perf build: Don't fail fast path feature detection when binutils-devel is not available
This is one more remnant of the BUILD_NONDISTRO series to make building
with binutils-devel opt-in due to license incompatibility.
In this case just the references at link time were still in place, which
make building the test-all.bin file fail, which wasn't detected before
probably because the last test was done with binutils-devel available,
doh.
Now:
$ rpm -q binutils-devel
package binutils-devel is not installed
$ file /tmp/build/perf-tools/feature/test-all.bin
/tmp/build/perf-tools/feature/test-all.bin: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV),

perf build: Correct CROSS_ARCH for clang
Clang's -dumpmachine outputs "aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu", which does not match the MultiArch convention. This prevents the build system from detecting installed packages.

perf build: detect support for libbpf's emit_strings option
This creates a config option that detects libbpf's ability to display character arrays as strings, which was just added to the BPF tree (https://git.kernel.org/bpf/bpf-next/c/87c9c79a02b4). To test this change, I built perf (from later in this patch set) with: - static libbpf (default, using source from kernel tree) - dynamic libbpf (LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 LIBBPF_INCLUDE=/usr/local/include) For both the static and dynamic versions, I used headers with and without the ".emit_strings" option. I verified that of the four resulting binaries, the two with ".emit_strings" would successfully record BPF_METADATA events, and the two without wouldn't. All four binaries would successfully display BPF_METADATA events, because the relevant bit of libbpf code is only used during "perf record".

tools/build: Use SYSTEM_BPFTOOL for system bpftool
The feature test for system bpftool uses BPFTOOL as the variable to set
its path, defaulting to just "bpftool" if not set by the user.
This conflicts with selftests and a few other utilities, which expect
BPFTOOL to be set to the in-tree bpftool path by default. For example,
bpftool selftests fail to build:
$ make -C tools/testing/selftests/bpf/
make: Entering directory '/home/tglozar/dev/linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf'
make: *** No rule to make target 'bpftool', needed by '/home/tglozar/dev/linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/tools/include/vmlinux.h'. Stop.
make: Leaving directory '/home/tglozar/dev/linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf'
Fix the problem by renaming the variable used for system bpftool from
BPFTOOL to SYSTEM_BPFTOOL, so that the new usage does not conflict with
the existing one of BPFTOOL.

tools build: Add feature test for libelf with ZSTD
The macro ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD defines the compress algorithm, which was
introduced in the commit ("libelf: Document and make ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD
usable with old system elf.h") of the repository elfutils-0.188-67.
Therefore, libelf 0.189 and later versions require to link the libzstd
library.
Add a test for checking if libelf supports ZSTD algorithm. Pass the
macro ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD as an argument to the elf_compress() function.
If the build succeeds, it means the feature is supported.

This is to reduce the number of PMU interrupts. The samples of the

be generated for the other member events.
$ perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}:S' ${MYPROG}

Build
-----
* Make libunwind opt-in (LIBUNWIND=1) rather than opt-out. The perf
tools are generally built with libelf and libdw which has unwinder
functionality. The libunwind support predates it and no need to
have duplicate unwinders by default.
* Rename NO_DWARF=1 build option to NO_LIBDW=1 in order to clarify it's
using libdw for handling DWARF information.
Internals
---------
* Do not set exclude_guest bit in the perf_event_attr by default. This
was causing a trouble in AMD IBS PMU as it doesn't support the bit.
The bit will be set when it's needed later by the fallback logic.
Also update the missing feature detection logic to make sure not clear
supported bits unnecessarily.
* Run perf test in parallel by default and mark flaky tests "exclusive"
to run them serially at the end. Some test numbers are changed but
the test can complete in less than half the time.
JSON vendor events
------------------
* Add AMD Zen 5 events and metrics.
* Add i.MX91 and i.MX95 DDR metrics
* Fix HiSilicon HIP08 Topdown metric name.
* Support compat events on PowerPC.

Build:
- Make libunwind opt-in (LIBUNWIND=1) rather than opt-out.
The perf tools are generally built with libelf and libdw which has
unwinder functionality. The libunwind support predates it and no
need to have duplicate unwinders by default.
- Rename NO_DWARF=1 build option to NO_LIBDW=1 in order to clarify
it's using libdw for handling DWARF information.
Internals:
- Do not set exclude_guest bit in the perf_event_attr by default.
This was causing a trouble in AMD IBS PMU as it doesn't support the
bit. The bit will be set when it's needed later by the fallback
logic. Also update the missing feature detection logic to make sure
not clear supported bits unnecessarily.
- Run perf test in parallel by default and mark flaky tests
"exclusive" to run them serially at the end. Some test numbers are
changed but the test can complete in less than half the time.
JSON vendor events:
- Add AMD Zen 5 events and metrics.
- Add i.MX91 and i.MX95 DDR metrics
- Fix HiSilicon HIP08 Topdown metric name.
- Support compat events on PowerPC"

perf build: Autodetect minimum required llvm-dev version
The new LLVM addr2line feature requires a minimum version of 13 to
compile. Add a feature check for the version so that NO_LLVM=1 doesn't
need to be explicitly added. Leave the existing llvm feature check
intact because it's used by tools other than Perf.
This fixes the following compilation error when the llvm-dev version
doesn't match:

Revert "tools build: Remove leftover libcap tests that prevents fast path feature detection from working"
Ian pointed out that the libcap feature test is also used by bpftool, so
we can't remove it just because perf stopped using it, revert the
removal of the feature test.
Since both perf and libcap uses the fast path feature detection
(tools/build/feature/test-all.c), probably the best thing is to keep
libcap-devel when building perf even it not being used there.
This reverts commit

tools build: Remove leftover libcap tests that prevents fast path feature detection from working
I noticed that the fast path feature detection was failing:
$ cat /tmp/build/perf-tools-next/feature/test-all.make.output
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcap: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
$
The patch removing the dependency (Fixes tag below) didn't remove the
detection of libcap, and as the fast path feature detection (test-all.c)
had -lcap in its Makefile link list of libraries to link, it was failing
when libcap-devel is not available, fix it by removing those leftover
files.

Since libdw version 0.177, elfutils has merged libebl.a into libdw (see the commit "libebl: Don't install libebl.a, libebl.h and remove backends from spec." in the elfutils repository). As a result, libebl.a does not exist on Debian Bullseye and newer releases, causing static perf builds to fail on these distributions.

When a build passes the environment variables PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR or PKG_CONFIG_PATH, like a user uses make command or a build system (like Yocto, Buildroot, etc) prepares the variables and passes to the Perf's Makefile, the commit keeps these variables for package configuration. Otherwise, this commit sets the PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR variable to use the Multiarch libs for the cross compilation.

perf build: Add feature check for dwarf_getcfi()
The dwarf_getcfi() is available on libdw 0.142+. Instead of just checking the version number, it'd be nice to have a config item to check the feature at build time.

perf tools changes for v6.6:
perf tools maintainership:
- Add git information for perf-tools and perf-tools-next trees/branches to the
MAINTAINERS file. That is where development now takes place and myself and
Namhyung Kim have write access, more people to come as we emulate other
maintainer groups.
perf record:
- Record kernel data maps when 'perf record --data' is used, so that global variables can
be resolved and used in tools that do data profiling.
perf trace:
- Remove the old, experimental support for BPF events in which a .c file was passed as
an event: "perf trace -e hello.c" to then get compiled and loaded.
The only known usage for that, that shipped with the kernel as an example for such events,
augmented the raw_syscalls tracepoints and was converted to a libbpf skeleton, reusing all
the user space components and the BPF code connected to the syscalls.
In the end just the way to glue the BPF part and the user space type beautifiers changed,
now being performed by libbpf skeletons.
The next step is to use BTF to do pretty printing of all syscall types, as discussed with
Alan Maguire and others.
Now, on a perf built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 we get most if not all path/filenames/strings,
some of the networking data structures, perf_event_attr, etc, i.e. systemwide tracing of
nanosleep calls and perf_event_open syscalls while 'perf stat' runs 'sleep' for 5 seconds:
# perf trace -a -e *nanosleep,perf* perf stat -e cycles,instructions sleep 5

perf annotate:
- Building with binutils' libopcode now is opt-in (BUILD_NONDISTRO=1) for
licensing reasons, and we missed a build test on tools/perf/tests makefile.
Since we now default to NDEBUG=1, we ended up segfaulting when building with
BUILD_NONDISTRO=1 because a needed initialization routine was being "error
checked" via an assert.
Fix it by explicitly checking the result and aborting instead if it fails.
We better back propagate the error, but at least 'perf annotate' on samples
collected for a BPF program is back working when perf is built with
BUILD_NONDISTRO=1.
perf report/top:
- Add back TUI hierarchy mode header, that is seen when using 'perf report/top --hierarchy'.
- Fix the number of entries for 'e' key in the TUI that was preventing navigation of
lines when expanding an entry.
perf report/script:
- Support cross platform register handling, allowing a perf.data file collected
on one architecture to have registers sampled correctly displayed when
analysis tools such as 'perf report' and 'perf script' are used on a different
architecture.
- Fix handling of event attributes in pipe mode, i.e. when one uses:
perf record -o - | perf report -i -
When no perf.data files are used.
- Handle files generated via pipe mode with a version of perf and then read
also via pipe mode with a different version of perf, where the event attr
record may have changed, use the record size field to properly support this
version mismatch.
perf probe:
- Accessing global variables from uprobes isn't supported, make the error
message state that instead of stating that some minimal kernel version is
needed to have that feature. This seems just a tool limitation, the kernel
probably has all that is needed.
perf tests:
- Fix a reference count related leak in the dlfilter v0 API where the result
of a thread__find_symbol_fb() is not matched with an addr_location__exit()
to drop the reference counts of the resolved components (machine, thread, map,
symbol, etc). Add a dlfilter test to make sure that doesn't regresses.
- Lots of fixes for the 'perf test' written in shell script related to problems
found with the shellcheck utility.
- Fixes for 'perf test' shell scripts testing features enabled when perf is
built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1, such as 'perf stat' bpf counters.
- Add perf record sample filtering test, things like the following example, that gets
implemented as a BPF filter attached to the event:
# perf record -e task-clock -c 10000 --filter 'ip < 0xffffffff00000000'
- Improve the way the task_analyzer test checks if libtraceevent is linked,
using 'perf version --build-options' instead of the more expensinve
'perf record -e "sched:sched_switch"'.
- Add support for riscv in the mmap-basic test. (This went as well via the RiscV tree, same contents).
libperf:
- Implement riscv mmap support (This went as well via the RiscV tree, same contents).
perf script:
- New tool that converts perf.data files to the firefox profiler format so that one can use
the visualizer at https://profiler.firefox.com/. Done by Anup Sharma as part of this year's
Google Summer of Code.
One can generate the output and upload it to the web interface but Anup also automated
everything:
perf script gecko -F 99 -a sleep 60
- Support syscall name parsing on arm64.
- Print "cgroup" field on the same line as "comm".
perf bench:
- Add new 'uprobe' benchmark to measure the overhead of uprobes with/without
BPF programs attached to it.
- breakpoints are not available on power9, skip that test.
perf stat:
- Add #num_cpus_online literal to be used in 'perf stat' metrics, and add this extra
'perf test' check that exemplifies its purpose:
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus_online",
expr__parse(&num_cpus_online, ctx, "#num_cpus_online") == 0);
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus", expr__parse(&num_cpus, ctx, "#num_cpus") == 0);
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus >= #num_cpus_online", num_cpus >= num_cpus_online);
Miscellaneous:
- Improve tool startup time by lazily reading PMU, JSON, sysfs data.
- Improve error reporting in the parsing of events, passing YYLTYPE to error routines,
so that the output can show were the parsing error was found.
- Add 'perf test' entries to check the parsing of events improvements.
- Fix various leak for things detected by -fsanitize=address, mostly things that would
be freed at tool exit, including:
- Free evsel->filter on the destructor.
- Allow tools to register a thread->priv destructor and use it in 'perf trace'.
- Free evsel->priv in 'perf trace'.
- Free string returned by synthesize_perf_probe_point() when the caller fails
to do all it needs.
- Adjust various compiler options to not consider errors some warnings when
building with broken headers found in things like python, flex, bison, as we
otherwise build with -Werror. Some for gcc, some for clang, some for some
specific version of those, some for some specific version of flex or bison, or
some specific combination of these components, bah.
- Allow customization of clang options for BPF target, this helps building on
gentoo where there are other oddities where BPF targets gets passed some compiler
options intended for the native build, so building with WERROR=0 helps while
these oddities are fixed.
- Dont pass ERR_PTR() values to perf_session__delete() in 'perf top' and 'perf lock',
fixing some segfaults when handling some odd failures.
- Add LTO build option.
- Fix format of unordered lists in the perf docs (tools/perf/Documentation).
- Overhaul the bison files, using constructs such as YYNOMEM.
- Remove unused tokens from the bison .y files.
- Add more comments to various structs.
- A few LoongArch enablement patches.
Vendor events (JSON):
- Add JSON metrics for Yitian 710 DDR (aarch64). Things like:
EventName, BriefDescription
visible_window_limit_reached_rd, "At least one entry in read queue reaches the visible window limit.",
visible_window_limit_reached_wr, "At least one entry in write queue reaches the visible window limit.",
op_is_dqsosc_mpc , "A DQS Oscillator MPC command to DRAM.",
op_is_dqsosc_mrr , "A DQS Oscillator MRR command to DRAM.",
op_is_tcr_mrr , "A Temperature Compensated Refresh(TCR) MRR command to DRAM.",
- Add AmpereOne metrics (aarch64).
- Update N2 and V2 metrics (aarch64) and events using Arm telemetry repo.
- Update scale units and descriptions of common topdown metrics on aarch64. Things like:
- "MetricExpr": "stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles)",
- "BriefDescription": "Frontend bound L1 topdown metric",
+ "MetricExpr": "100 * (stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles))",
+ "BriefDescription": "This metric is the percentage of total slots that were stalled due to resource constraints in the frontend of the processor.",
- Update events for intel: meteorlake to 1.04, sapphirerapids to 1.15, Icelake+ metric constraints.
- Update files for the power10 platform.

- Add AmpereOne metrics (aarch64).
- Update N2 and V2 metrics (aarch64) and events using Arm telemetry
repo.
- Update scale units and descriptions of common topdown metrics on
aarch64. Things like:
- "MetricExpr": "stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles)",
- "BriefDescription": "Frontend bound L1 topdown metric",
+ "MetricExpr": "100 * (stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles))",
+ "BriefDescription": "This metric is the percentage of total slots that were stalled due to resource constraints in the frontend of the processor.",
- Update events for intel: meteorlake to 1.04, sapphirerapids to
1.15, Icelake+ metric constraints.
- Update files for the power10 platform"

perf build: Update feature check for clang and llvm
Perf build auto-detects features and packages already installed for its build. This is done in directory tools/build/feature. This directory contains small sample programs. When they successfully compile the necessary prereqs in form of libraries and header files are present. Such a check is also done for llvm and clang. And the checks fail. Fix this and update to the latest C++ standard and use the new library provided by clang (which contains new packaging) s/ee this link for reference: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Stop-Shipping-Individual-Component-Libraries-In-clang-lib-Package Output before: # rm -f ./test-clang.bin; make test-clang.bin; ./test-clang.bin; \ ll test-clang.make.output g++ -MD -Wall -Werror -o test-clang.bin test-clang.cpp \ > test-clang.make.output 2>&1 -std=gnu++14 \ -I/usr/include \ -L/usr/lib64 \ -Wl,--start-group -lclangBasic -lclangDriver \ -lclangFrontend -lclangEdit -lclangLex \ -lclangAST -Wl,--end-group \ -lLLVM-16 \ \ > test-clang.make.output 2>&1 make: *** [Makefile:356: test-clang.bin] Error 1 -bash: ./test-clang.bin: No such file or directory -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 252041 Jul 12 09:56 test-clang.make.output # File test-clang.make.output contains many lines of unreferenced symbols.
