6a38b515a5 perf session: Validate HEADER_ATTR attr.size before swapping
Harden PERF_RECORD_HEADER_ATTR handling against crafted perf.data:

- Validate attr.size: must be >= PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER0, a multiple
  of sizeof(u64), and fit within the event payload.
- Copy only min(attr.size, sizeof(struct perf_event_attr)) bytes
  into a local attr, zeroing the rest so legacy files don't leak
  adjacent event data into new fields.
- Keep the original attr.size so perf_event__synthesize_attr()
  uses it for both allocation and ID-array placement.

Fix perf_event__synthesize_attr() to use attr->size (not the
compiled sizeof) for event allocation and layout, so perf inject
correctly re-synthesizes attrs from files recorded by a different
perf version.  Without this, the ID array destination pointer
(computed via perf_record_header_attr_id()) would be inconsistent
with the allocation when attr->size differs from sizeof.

Also fix the parse-no-sample-id-all test to set attr.size, which
is now validated, and improve error handling in read_attr() for
short reads and invalid attr sizes.

Handle ABI0 pipe/inject events where attr.size is 0: use a local
attr_size variable set to PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER0 for both the bounded
copy and ID array position, instead of writing back to the event.
Native-endian files may be MAP_SHARED (read-only mmap), so writing
to the event buffer would SIGSEGV.  The swap path handles ABI0 in
perf_event__attr_swap() which writes to the MAP_PRIVATE copy.

header.size alignment is now validated centrally in
perf_session__process_event() (see "Add minimum event size and
alignment validation").

3ade633da7 perf session: Use bounded copy for PERF_RECORD_TIME_CONV
session->time_conv = event->time_conv copies sizeof(struct
perf_record_time_conv) bytes unconditionally, but older kernels
emit shorter TIME_CONV events without the time_cycles, time_mask,
cap_user_time_zero, and cap_user_time_short fields.

For a 32-byte event (the original format), this reads 24 bytes
past the event boundary into adjacent mmap'd data.  The garbage
values end up in session->time_conv and can cause incorrect TSC
conversion if cap_user_time_zero happens to be non-zero.

Replace the struct assignment with a bounded memcpy capped at
event->header.size, zeroing the remainder so extended fields
default to off when absent.

981f13ae62 perf session: Add validated swap infrastructure with null-termination checks
Change swap callbacks from void to int return so handlers can
propagate errors.  All 28 existing handlers are converted to
return 0 on success, -1 on error.  Three new handlers (KSYMBOL,
BPF_EVENT, HEADER_FEATURE) are added returning int from the
start, with sample_id_all handling for the kernel event types.

event_swap() propagates the return to its callers (process_event
and peek_event), which skip events that fail to swap.

Add perf_event__check_nul() for null-termination enforcement
on the common event delivery path for MMAP, MMAP2, COMM,
CGROUP, and KSYMBOL events.  Events with
unterminated strings are skipped — native-endian files are
mapped read-only, so writing a NUL byte in place would segfault.

Swap handler hardening:

 - Use strnlen bounded by event size (instead of strlen) in
   COMM/MMAP/MMAP2/CGROUP swap handlers, returning -1 on
   unterminated strings.

 - Bounds check text_poke old_len+new_len before computing the
   sample_id offset, returning -1 on overflow.  Use offsetof()
   for the native-path check in machines__deliver_event() since
   sizeof() includes struct padding past the flexible array.

 - Fix PERF_RECORD_SWITCH sample_id_all: non-CPU_WIDE SWITCH
   events have sample_id immediately after the 8-byte header,
   not at sizeof(struct perf_record_switch) which is the
   CPU_WIDE variant size.

 - Fix perf_event__time_conv_swap(): decouple time_cycles and
   time_mask into independent per-field event_contains() checks,
   so each field is only swapped when the event is large enough
   to contain it.  The original code guarded both fields under
   a single time_cycles check, which would swap time_mask on a
   short event that contains time_cycles but not time_mask.

 - Handle ABI0 (attr.size == 0) in perf_event__attr_swap()
   by substituting PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER0, so bswap_safe()
   correctly swaps VER0 fields instead of skipping everything.

 - peek_events: on swap failure, advance past the malformed
   entry instead of aborting the loop.

Note: the nr-field bounds checks for namespaces, thread_map,
cpu_map, and stat_config arrays are added by a subsequent
patch ("perf session: Validate nr fields against event size
on both swap and common paths").  The HEADER_ATTR attr.size
validation is added by ("perf session: Validate HEADER_ATTR
attr.size before swapping").

By establishing the int-returning swap infrastructure first,
all subsequent hardening patches can use direct error returns
from day one — no poison values, no workarounds for void return.

Changes in v2:
- peek_events: abort instead of skip for AUXTRACE events on
  validation failure — skipping only header.size would land
  inside the raw trace payload, causing subsequent iterations
  to misparse data as events (Reported-by: sashiko-bot@kernel.org)

315c81b4b9 perf session: Fix swap_sample_id_all() crash on crafted events
swap_sample_id_all() calls BUG_ON(size % sizeof(u64)) which kills
perf on any event where the sample_id_all tail is not 8-byte aligned.
A crafted perf.data can trigger this trivially.

Replace BUG_ON with a bounds check: skip the swap if the data pointer
is past the end of the event, and only swap when there are bytes
remaining.

Note: the strlen calls in string-field swap handlers (comm,
mmap, mmap2, cgroup) are replaced with bounded strnlen by the
next patch in this series ("perf session: Add validated swap
infrastructure with null-termination checks").

fe84caf425 perf session: Fix PERF_RECORD_READ swap and dump for variable-length events
The kernel dynamically sizes PERF_RECORD_READ based on
attr.read_format: only the fields enabled by PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED,
PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING, PERF_FORMAT_ID, and PERF_FORMAT_LOST
are emitted, packed with no gaps.

perf_event__read_swap() unconditionally byte-swapped time_enabled,
time_running, and id at their fixed struct offsets, causing
out-of-bounds access on smaller events and swapping the wrong
bytes when not all format fields are present.  It also swapped
sample_id_all at a fixed offset past the full struct, which is
wrong for shorter events.

Replace the individual field swaps with a single mem_bswap_64()
over the entire tail from value onward.  Since every field after
pid/tid is u64 regardless of which combination is present, this
correctly handles any read_format combination and any trailing
sample_id_all fields.

Similarly, dump_read() accessed optional fields via fixed struct
offsets, displaying values from wrong positions when not all
format bits are set.  Walk the packed u64 array sequentially
instead, with bounds checks against event->header.size.

3ec93875fd perf zstd: Fix multi-iteration decompression and error handling
zstd_decompress_stream() has two bugs in its multi-iteration loop:

1. After each ZSTD_decompressStream() call, the code advances
   output.dst by output.pos but doesn't reset output.pos to 0.
   ZSTD interprets output.pos relative to output.dst, so the
   next iteration writes at (dst + pos) + pos = dst + 2*pos,
   skipping a gap and potentially writing out of bounds.

2. On ZSTD_decompressStream() error, the loop executes break
   and returns output.pos (which is > 0 if some bytes were
   decompressed before the error).  The caller checks
   !decomp_size and skips the error, silently accepting
   truncated or corrupted data.

Fix both by removing the output buffer adjustment — ZSTD
correctly accumulates output.pos across calls without it.
Return 0 on decompression error so the caller detects it.
Add a no-progress guard to prevent infinite loops if the
output buffer fills before all input is consumed.

Note: the compressed event data_size is validated against
header.size by a subsequent patch in this series
("perf tools: Harden compressed event processing").

a18908b505 perf zstd: Fix compression error path in zstd_compress_stream_to_records()
The error fallback does memcpy(dst, src, src_size) intending to store
uncompressed data when compression fails, but this has three bugs:

1. dst has been advanced past the record header (and potentially
   past earlier compressed records), so the copy writes to the
   wrong offset in the output buffer.

2. src still points to the start of the input, not to the
   remaining uncompressed data at src + input.pos.  On a second
   or later iteration, previously compressed data would be
   duplicated.

3. No check that dst_size >= src_size — if the remaining output
   space is smaller, this is an out-of-bounds write.

Replace with return -1 after resetting the ZSTD compression
context via ZSTD_initCStream().  The -1 propagates through
zstd_compress() -> record__pushfn() -> perf_mmap__push() to the
recording loop, which breaks out and terminates recording.

Add an out_child_no_flush label in __cmd_record() so the
mmap-read failure path skips the final record__mmap_read_all()
flush — retrying the same read that just failed would just fail
again, and the flush is only useful when the mmap data is intact
but the control path (auxtrace, switch_output) had an error.

Consolidate all error paths through a single 'reset' label to
ensure the compression context is always reset on failure —
including the output-buffer-full path, where a bare return
without resetting would leave stale stream state that corrupts
output if the caller retries.

Also guard against process_header() writing the event header
before the buffer-full check: add a sizeof(perf_event_header)
pre-check so the callback never writes past the output buffer.

Guard against ZSTD making no progress: if output.pos is zero
after ZSTD_compressStream(), calling process_header(record, 0)
would re-trigger header initialization, double-subtracting the
header size from dst_size and underflowing the unsigned counter.

Also fix two pre-existing issues in the same function:

- Add a dst_size guard before subtracting the record header
  size: if the output buffer is nearly full, the unsigned
  dst_size -= size underflows to a huge value, causing
  ZSTD_compressStream to write past the buffer boundary.

- Check the ZSTD_initCStream() return value and log an error
  if the context reset itself fails.

1a646a28a0 perf tools: Fix event_contains() macro to verify full field extent
event_contains() checked whether a field's start offset was within
the event (header.size > offsetof), but not whether the full field
fit.  A crafted event with header.size = offsetof(field) + 1 would
pass the check, but an 8-byte access (bswap_64, direct read) would
overrun the event boundary by up to 7 bytes.

Fix the macro to verify the complete field:

  header.size >= offsetof(field) + sizeof(field)

Also update all callers that check event_contains(time_cycles) but
access later fields (time_mask, cap_user_time_zero,
cap_user_time_short) to check for cap_user_time_short — the last
field accessed — so the entire extended block is verified:
tsc.c, arm-spe.c, cs-etm.c, jitdump.c.

Note: session.c's perf_event__time_conv_swap() also guards on
time_cycles but accesses time_mask — a pre-existing issue not
introduced by this macro change.  It is fixed by a later patch
in this series ("perf session: Add validated swap
infrastructure with null-termination checks"), which decouples
time_cycles and time_mask into independent per-field
event_contains() checks.  The struct assignment overread
(session->time_conv = event->time_conv copies sizeof on a
potentially shorter event) is separately fixed by "perf
session: Use bounded copy for PERF_RECORD_TIME_CONV".

da27c4379c perf session: Add minimum event size and alignment validation
Add a per-type minimum size table (perf_event__min_size[]) and
enforce it before swap and processing, so that both cross-endian
and native-endian paths are protected from accessing fields past
the event boundary.

The table uses offsetof() for types with trailing variable-length
fields (filenames, strings, msg arrays) and sizeof() for
fixed-size types.  Zero entries mean no minimum beyond the 8-byte
header already enforced by the reader.

Undersized events are skipped with a warning in process_event
and rejected in peek_event — both checked before the swap
handler runs, preventing OOB access on crafted event fields.

Also reject events whose header.size is not 8-byte aligned.  The
kernel aligns all event sizes to sizeof(u64) — see
perf_event_comm_event() (ALIGN), perf_event_mmap_event(),
perf_event_cgroup(), perf_event_ksymbol() (IS_ALIGNED loops),
and perf_event_text_poke() (ALIGN) in kernel/events/core.c.
An unaligned size means the file is corrupted or crafted; reject
early so downstream code that divides by sizeof(u64) to compute
array element counts gets exact results.

Three legacy user events are exempted from the alignment check:
TRACING_DATA (66) had a 12-byte struct before commit b39c915a4f
("libperf event: Ensure tracing data is multiple of 8 sized")
added padding, COMPRESSED (81) carries raw ZSTD output (already
superseded by COMPRESSED2 with PERF_ALIGN), and HEADER_FEATURE
(80) uses do_write_string() with a 4-byte length prefix.

Also guard event_swap() against crafted event types >=
PERF_RECORD_HEADER_MAX to prevent OOB reads on the
perf_event__swap_ops[] array.

Changes in v2:
- Fix double-skip for unsupported event types: return 0 instead
  of event->header.size in perf_session__process_event() for
  HEADER_MAX, since reader__read_event() already advances by
  event->header.size (Reported-by: sashiko-bot@kernel.org)
- Exempt TRACING_DATA, COMPRESSED, and HEADER_FEATURE from the
  alignment check — these legacy user events predate the 8-byte
  alignment rule (Reported-by: sashiko-bot@kernel.org)
- peek_event: return 0 (skip) for unknown event types instead of
  -1 (error), consistent with process_event which already skips
  unsupported types gracefully (Reported-by: sashiko-bot@kernel.org)

It can be removed entirely at the cost of only supporting synchronous

asynchronously.

This also makes struct msghdr smaller, helping every other caller of

43b16bf3e7 perf: Apply is_ignored_kernel_symbol() filter in ELF loading path for kernel DSOs
dso__load_sym_internal() had no filtering for .L* and L0* mapping
symbols while the kallsyms path already filters them via
is_ignored_kernel_symbol().

Add the same check gated by dso__kernel() so that kernel ELF objects
(vmlinux, .ko) have mapping symbols filtered across all architectures,
but userspace ELF objects are unaffected -- '$' is a valid prefix in
languages like Java and Scala.

The existing ARM/AArch64 and RISC-V architecture-specific mapping symbol
checks are preserved; the new is_ignored_kernel_symbol() check adds x86
local symbol (.L*, L0*) filtering and provides unified
cross-architecture coverage for kernel DSOs.

e987110f09 perf: Extract is_ignored_kernel_symbol() for kernel mapping symbol filtering
Mapping symbol filtering is scattered across multiple files with
inconsistent checks.  The kernel's own is_mapping_symbol() covers x86
local symbols ('.L*' and 'L0*') on top of the '$' prefix used by
ARM/AArch64/RISC-V, but the perf tool only checks '$'.

Extract is_ignored_kernel_symbol() into symbol.h matching the kernel
definition, and convert the kallsyms and ksymbol event paths to use it.
Add ksymbol event name validation and early mapping symbol filtering
before any state mutation.

perf trace record fails some cases in powerpc

 # perf test "perf trace record and replay"

  # perf trace record sleep 1
  # echo $?
    32

This is happening because of non-zero err value from
auxtrace_record__init() function.

 static int record__auxtrace_init(struct record *rec)
 {
        int err;

        if ((rec->opts.auxtrace_snapshot_opts || rec->opts.auxtrace_sample_opts)
            && record__threads_enabled(rec)) {
                pr_err("AUX area tracing options are not available in parallel streaming mode.\n");
                return -EINVAL;
        }

        if (!rec->itr) {
                rec->itr = auxtrace_record__init(rec->evlist, &err);
                if (err)
                        return err;
        }

Here "int err" is not initialised. The code expects "err" to be set from
auxtrace_record__init() function.

Update auxtrace_record__init() in arch/powerpc/util/auxtrace.c to clear
err value in the beginning.

- Clear err value in beginning of function. Any fail later will
set appropriate return code to err.

- Even if we haven't found any event for auxtrace, perf record
should continue for other events. NULL return
will indicate that there is no auxtrace record initialized.

- Not having "err" set here will affect monitoring of other events
also because perf record will fail seeing random value in err.

Set err to -EINVAL before invoking auxtrace_record__init() in
builtin-record.c

With the fix,

  # perf trace record sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.033 MB perf.data (228 samples) ]

with `--for-each-cgroup`, both with and without `--bpf-counters`.

The test:
- Checks if system-wide monitoring is supported (skips if not).
- Finds cgroups to test.
- Runs `perf stat` with `insn_per_cycle` metric and verifies that the
  metric is reported for each cgroup.
- Dynamically pairs and verifies instructions and cycles counts to
  avoid false failures on idle cgroups.
- Tests both standard mode and BPF counters mode (if supported).

65bd18199a perf stat: Propagate supported flag to follower cgroup BPF events
When using BPF counters with cgroups, follower events (for cgroups
other than the first one) are not opened. Because they are not opened,
their `supported` flag was left as `false`.

During metric calculation, `prepare_metric` checks if the event is
supported. If it is not supported (like the follower events), it
explicitly sets the value to `NAN`, which eventually causes the metric
to be reported as `nan %`.

Fix this by propagating the `supported` flag from the "leader" events
(the ones opened for the first cgroup) to the "follower" events.

Also add a validation check to `bperf_load_program` to ensure `nr_cgroups`
is not zero and the number of events is a multiple of `nr_cgroups`,
preventing a potential division-by-zero (SIGFPE) exception when
`num_events` evaluates to 0 (e.g., with a trailing comma in cgroups list).

7378b6656a perf riscv: Fix discarded const qualifier in _get_field()
The assignment of strrchr() return values to non-const char * variables
triggers a -Werror=discarded-qualifiers warning when building with GCC
14.

This happens because in newer glibc versions, strrchr() returns a 'const
char *' if the input string is const.

Properly declare 'line2' and 'nl' as const char * to match the glibc
function signature and ensure type safety. This avoids the need for
explicit type casting and aligns with the design pattern of not
modifying read-only memory in the perf tool.

0b18bced54 perf tool_pmu: Make tool PMU events respect enable/disable
Tool PMU events (duration_time, user_time, system_time) currently
count from when the event is opened to when it is read. This causes
issues with features like the delay option (-D) or control fd, where
events are opened but should not start counting immediately.

Make these events behave more like regular counters by implementing
proper enable and disable support. Add accumulated_time to struct
evsel to track time while enabled, and implement enable/disable CPU
callbacks to start/stop counting.

Also generalize userspace PMU mixed group handling. Userspace synthetic
PMUs (type > PERF_PMU_TYPE_PE_END) do not have kernel implementations and
cannot be grouped in the kernel (opened with group_fd = -1), and are
skipped by kernel enable/disable calls. Iterate over group members in
userspace and manually enable/disable any members if the leader or the
member is a non-perf-event open PMU, and synchronize their disabled flags.

On Zen4 (and future) CPUs, IBS_OP_DATA3[TlbRefillLat] is valid only if

if IBS_OP_DATA3[DcLinAddrValid] is _also_ set. Add these checks while
decoding IBS MSRs.

When IBS is triggered by an unprivileged user, the kernel now zeroes
PhysAddr before storing raw IBS register values in the perf sample. The
perf tool, however, still outputs these zero physical addresses, which
serves no purpose. So avoid printing zero physical addresses.

Instead of explicit family/model checks use the !zen4_ibs_extensions as
a proxy flag to cover Zen 3 and earlier revisions.

swfilt is ignored by kernel on platforms that support RIP[63] bit filter

filter.

2. Ensures all 'name' fields in struct kwork_work are malloc-ed (or NULL)
   and properly freed by using strdup and zfree.

3. Fixes memory leaks in top_merge_tasks where kwork_work objects were
   dropped without being freed.

4. Adds robustness with NULL checks for name fields.

5. Fixes workqueue_work_init to correctly resolve and strdup kernel
   function names, preventing bad-free errors.

fdec0a81ca perf build: Unconditionally set up libunwind feature build flags
A "make feature-dump" build does not specify LIBUNWIND=1 because it is
run with the default configuration to detect system-wide capabilities.
This sets NO_LIBUNWIND := 1, causing Makefile.config to skip setting
LIBUNWIND_LIBS and FEATURE_CHECK_LDFLAGS-libunwind.

Consequently, when Makefile.feature is included and attempts to run
all feature checks (via FEATURE_TESTS := all), the local feature test
test-libunwind.bin compiles without the required architecture-specific
library flags (-lunwind-x86_64) and fails to link on x86_64. This
results in a corrupted cached BUILD_TEST_FEATURE_DUMP showing
feature-libunwind=0 even when the host supports it.

Subsequent test builds (like make_libunwind_O in the build-test suite)
which reuse the feature dump and specify LIBUNWIND=1 will fail to
compile due to a mismatch where CONFIG_LIBUNWIND is set (via remote
architecture checks which are self-contained) but HAVE_LIBUNWIND_SUPPORT
is disabled, causing compiler errors due to missing maps__e_machine
definitions in maps.h.

Fix this by unconditionally setting up the libunwind library lists
and feature check LDFLAGS in Makefile.config so they are always
populated and available to the feature detection engine regardless
of whether LIBUNWIND=1 is opted-in for the current run.

Fixes: 444508cd7c ("perf build: Be more programmatic when setting up libunwind variables")

7a978c2ac7 perf stat: Make metric only column line up with header
Since some time the metric-only output columns are messed up and do not
line up with the header, which makes it hard to read. I haven't bisected
it, but presumably it was broken for some time.

There were multiple problems:
- The dummy pm invocation at the beginning did print a bogus field
- The column computation in pm did not agree with the header length
- The color escape strings from highlighting confuse printf's field
  length computation

Fix all those. I simplified the column width computation significantly,
ignoring EVNAME_LEN, MGROUP_LEN, config->unit_width which don't
seem to be useful in the metric only context. It now only uses
the actual unit width as well as config->metric_only_len. The result
is more code removed than added.

Before:

% perf stat --topdown -a -I 1000

85cc481af5 perf build: Prefix SCRIPTS with output directory to fix continuous rebuilds
In Makefile.perf, ALL_PROGRAMS includes SCRIPTS (perf-archive,
perf-iostat). However, unlike PROGRAMS and DLFILTERS, SCRIPTS was not
prefixed with $(OUTPUT).

During out-of-tree builds (or when O= is specified), Make checked for the
unprefixed target 'tools/perf/perf-archive'. Since the actual script was
installed into $(OUTPUT)perf-archive, Make concluded the target was
missing and continuously re-executed the script installation rule on every
single incremental build.

Prefix SCRIPTS with $(OUTPUT) and update the static pattern rule to ensure
Kbuild correctly tracks generated script prerequisites during incremental
builds.

9f116f4b81 perf tests: Add test for uncore event sorting
Add a test for uncore event sorting matching multiple PMUs.

Uncore PMUs may have a common prefix, like the PMUs
uncore_imc_free_running_0 and uncore_imc_free_running_1 have a prefix of
uncore_imc_free_running.

Parsing an event group like "{data_read,data_write}" for those PMUs
should result with two groups:

  "{uncore_imc_free_running_0/data_read/,uncore_imc_free_running_0/data_write/},
   {uncore_imc_free_running_1/data_read/,uncore_imc_free_running_1/data_write/}"

which means the evsels need resorting as when initially parsed the
evsels are ordered with mixed PMUs:

  "{uncore_imc_free_running_0/data_read/,uncore_imc_free_running_1/data_read/,
  uncore_imc_free_running_0/data_write/,uncore_imc_free_running_1/data_write/}".

Because these variables were expanded inside the COPY_RULE dependency

Convert ZENS, ARMS, and INTELS to simply expanded variables (:=) and

bb922345ee perf pmu-events: Split big_c_string storage into standalone compilation unit
Currently, jevents.py emits both the massive 2.8 MB big_c_string literal
and tens of thousands of compact_pmu_event struct arrays into a single
pmu-events.c compilation unit. Compiling this giant file takes ~2.2 seconds
on a single CPU core during Kbuild startup.

Refactor jevents.py to emit big_c_string into a dedicated
pmu-events-string.c compilation unit. This allows Kbuild to compile
pmu-events.o and pmu-events-string.o simultaneously in parallel across
two separate CPU cores, preserving 100% string deduplication and zero
dynamic ELF relocations while cutting C compilation latency in half.

Add pmu-events-string.c to tools/perf/.gitignore to ensure in-tree Kbuild
runs do not leave untracked generated files in the working directory.

To guarantee 100% backward compatibility with GNU Make 4.0+ (avoiding the
Make 4.3+ grouped target &: syntax which causes older Make versions like
4.2.1 to spawn multiple concurrent jevents.py processes during parallel
builds), implement a robust dependency chaining pattern:
  $(PMU_EVENTS_C): $(JEVENTS_DEPS)
  $(PMU_EVENTS_STRING_C): $(PMU_EVENTS_C)
          @:
This ensures jevents.py is invoked exactly once. If jevents.py aborts
early, Make's .DELETE_ON_ERROR: purges pmu-events.c, guaranteeing that
subsequent Make invocations correctly re-execute the script and overwrite
pmu-events-string.c. In jevents.py, explicitly close output_file first
and output_string_file second at the tail of main() to guarantee that
pmu-events-string.c receives a filesystem timestamp greater than or equal
to pmu-events.c, completely avoiding redundant incremental rebuilds.

29331b2edb perf build: Remove redundant libbpf feature check for static builds
By default, the perf tool compiles and statically links against its own
internal copy of libbpf (tools/lib/bpf/libbpf.a), setting LIBBPF_STATIC=1.

Despite this static linkage, Makefile.config unconditionally executed
$(call feature_check,libbpf), which forced a synchronous sub-make fork
during AST parsing to detect dynamic system libbpf libraries.

As noted in the internal Makefile comments, this check was executed purely
so that running `make VF=1` would display the detection status of system
libbpf. During standard builds without LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1, the detection
result was entirely ignored.

Wrap the libbpf feature check inside LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 so Make avoids the
redundant sub-make fork overhead during standard static builds.

prepare step and into the dependencies for those targets to avoid it
being a source of serialization in the prepare step.

32969ef6e3 perf build: Pre-generate BPF skeleton tooling during umbrella prepare phase
Currently, BPF skeleton generation rules (bpf_skel.mak) are evaluated as
part of util/Build. However, because LIBPERF_UTIL_IN explicitly depends
on the top-level static libbpf archive, Make completely blocked the
execution of bpftool bootstrap and skeleton generation until libbpf
finished compiling midway through the build.

Since bpftool bootstrap compiles its own independent copy of libbpf.a, it
does not depend on the top-level libbpf target.

Decouple early skeleton tooling generation by attaching bpf-skel-prepare
to the umbrella prepare target, exporting CONFIG_PERF_BPF_SKEL to ensure
accurate feature propagation. This allows Make to compile bpftool and
dump vmlinux.h in the background at build startup, eliminating the initial
sub-make startup bottleneck before BPF object compilation while keeping
100% of tooling rules perfectly encapsulated in bpf_skel.mak. Provide an
empty fallback target to ensure builds succeed when BPF skeletons are
disabled.

9798ac0128 perf build: Encapsulate vmlinux.h and bpftool in bpf_skel.mak
Currently, bpftool and vmlinux.h are prerequisites of the top-level
prepare target in Makefile.perf. This unnecessarily blocks the massive
parallel C compilation of libraries (perf-util, perf-ui, pmu-events) during
the initial startup phase.

Move all bpftool and vmlinux.h generation rules down into
tools/perf/bpf_skel.mak to encapsulate BPF tooling completely within the
skeleton framework. Remove them entirely from prepare to unblock immediate
parallel build execution.

To prevent parallel sub-makes (perf-util and perf-bench) from racing to
build shared prerequisites concurrently, while maintaining strict directory
encapsulation without top-level inclusions, serialize bench after the util
static archive finishes using an order-only prerequisite:
  $(LIBPERF_BENCH_IN): FORCE prepare | $(LIBPERF_UTIL)

713eeb2279 perf build: Move BPF skeleton generation out of Makefile.perf
Currently, the top-level Makefile.perf defines a massive global bpf-skel
umbrella target that pre-compiles all 12+ BPF skeletons (%.skel.h) upfront
before launching sub-makes. This forces unrelated sub-makes to serialize
behind bpftool and clang BPF target evaluations, causing parallel build
bottlenecks.

Furthermore, bench_uprobe.bpf.c lived inside util/bpf_skel/, breaking
conceptual directory encapsulation since it is consumed purely by
bench/uprobe.c.

Refactor the BPF skeletons to better achieve directory isolation:
1. Move tools/perf/util/bpf_skel/bench_uprobe.bpf.c directly into
   tools/perf/bench/bpf_skel/.
2. Extract the skeleton generation infrastructure out of Makefile.perf into
   a shared inclusion file tools/perf/bpf_skel.mak.
3. Include bpf_skel.mak locally inside tools/perf/util/Build and
   tools/perf/bench/Build and bind precise local prerequisites.
4. Safely synchronize the shared bpftool bootstrap and vmlinux.h targets
   via the conditional prepare: umbrella to avoid parallel sub-make races,
   while evaluating the actual skeletons completely locally on demand. A
   later patch will move these targets into bpf_skel.mak.
5. Export CLANG from the global Makefile to ensure accurate tool
   propagation.
6. Clean up Makefile.perf by stripping the global bpf-skel umbrella target
   and its SKELETONS list.

While removing code from Makefile.perf generally helps build
performance, the impact here is minimal. The main motivation for the
change is to better encapsulate things in the build and simplify
Makefile.perf that has around 50 lines removed.

b9453fa772 perf build: Decouple pmu-events from prepare umbrella target
Currently, the $(LIBPMU_EVENTS_IN) sub-make depends on the massive
"prepare" umbrella target. Because "prepare" depends on external
libraries (libapi, libperf, etc.) as well as dozens of generated
headers, make completely serializes the launch of the pmu-events
sub-make behind some of those unrelated prerequisites.

Since pmu-events is a large compilation unit, unblock its startup by
binding it directly to only $(LIBPERF) instead of prepare. This allows
background python generation scripts to overlap simultaneously with
the rest of the build.

Testing a parallel build (make -j28 clean all) shows improvements:
  Before:
    real    0m27.642s
    user    2m32.356s
    sys     0m26.683s

  After:
    real    0m22.254s
    user    2m32.810s
    sys     0m24.646s

This reclaims over 5 full seconds of build latency (~19.5% overall
reduction) by elevating average CPU concurrency from ~5.5 active cores
up to ~8 active cores.

537609924c perf trace beauty: Make beauty generated C code standalone .o files
Previously, builtin-trace.c directly included 15 embedded C files
(e.g. trace/beauty/mmap.c and fsconfig_arrays.c), which in turn depend
on dozens of generated beauty script arrays. To satisfy these embedded
inclusions, the global Makefile.perf would define all the generator
variables/rules and include them in the prepare umbrella target, choking
parallel build startup.

Furthermore, tools/perf/util/syscalltbl.c included its own generated mapper,
and util/env.c conditionally included arch_errno_names.c inline, splitting
consumers across directories and preventing clean Make encapsulation.

Refactor the framework to achieve better encapsulation:
1. Move util/syscalltbl.[ch] into trace/beauty/ to co-locate with all
   generated code consumers.
2. Create fsconfig.c and flatten embedded beauty .c files to compile as
   independent standalone objects via trace/beauty/Build, exporting their
   formatting functions via beauty.h and env.h. Switch arch_errno_names.o
   and syscalltbl.o assignments directly to perf-util-y and add an
   unconditional top-level recursive kbuild hook (perf-util-y += trace/beauty/)
   to compile them into libperf-util.a, resolving remote linkage for util/env.c,
   util/bpf-trace-summary.c, and standalone python extensions.
3. Bridge private opaque references (struct trace) securely via accessors
   trace__show_zeros() and trace__host(), avoiding header entanglements.
4. Consolidate all generator variables, script paths, and array generation
   rules entirely out of Makefile.perf and place them directly inside the
   exact local Build files where their output objects are compiled
   (trace/beauty/Build and trace/beauty/tracepoints/Build), binding
   prerequisites locally. Use  directly inside
   generator recipes to guarantee dynamic directory creation before script
   redirection, and append  across all rules to print
   clean, standardized GEN ... file.c output during compilation.
5. Clean up clean target to recursively remove the generated directory
   instead of relying on dozens of individual variables.

This unchokes the "prepare" target parallel barrier, allows make to evaluate
generation scripts purely locally where consumed, and flattens the tracepoint
formatting architecture.

Testing a parallel build (make -j28 all from scratch) shows improvements:
  Before:
    real    0m28.689s
    user    2m38.490s
    sys     0m30.148s

  After:
    real    0m27.642s
    user    2m32.356s
    sys     0m26.683s

So reclaiming ~9.6 seconds of raw CPU time and over 1 full second off
overall real-world build latency, by overlapping sub-make startup and
avoiding top-level double-parsing overhead.

9416008e54 perf sched stats: Fix SIGCHLD vs pause() race in schedstat_record()
If the profiled workload exits very quickly, SIGCHLD can be delivered
and consumed by the empty signal handler before the process enters
pause(), causing an indefinite hang.

Fix this with a simpler approach:

 - The signal handler now sets a 'volatile sig_atomic_t done' flag.
   Reset 'done' before registering signal handlers so that an early
   signal during setup is not discarded by a later reset.

 - Replace pause() with a loop that checks 'done' and uses
   waitpid(WNOHANG) to detect child exit without blocking.  This
   handles both workload mode (child exits) and system-wide mode
   (user sends SIGINT/SIGTERM).  Using WNOHANG avoids the SA_RESTART
   problem where a blocking waitpid() would auto-restart and ignore
   the done flag if the child doesn't exit on signal.

9aa1ec2e1d perf evsel: Add bounds checking to trace point raw data accessors
Prevent out-of-bounds memory reads when parsing corrupted or maliciously crafted
perf.data files by introducing robust bounds validation to raw data accessors.

- Add a helper out_of_bounds() to check if field offsets and sizes exceed the
  sample's raw_size boundary, preventing heap read overflows.
- In perf_sample__rawptr(), properly resolve newer relative dynamic tracepoint
  fields (__rel_loc) by checking the boundaries before and after reading the
  dynamic field descriptor.

a41a462334 perf timechart: Bounds check CPU
Prevent out-of-bounds writes/reads in CPU state tracking arrays by enforcing
strict MAX_CPUS bounds checks in timechart's tracepoint handlers.

Ensure that cpu_id retrieved from idle/frequency and sched tracepoints is less
than MAX_CPUS before indexing into cpus_cstate_state, cpus_cstate_start_times,
and similar tracking arrays. Also, fix an off-by-one error in the CPU iteration
loop inside end_sample_processing() by changing the loop condition from
'cpu <= tchart->numcpus' to 'cpu < tchart->numcpus'.

16ccbec0f3 perf sched: Bounds check CPU in sched switch events
Ensure CPU indexes parsed from sched switch and runtime events fit within the
MAX_CPUS limit to prevent out-of-bounds indexing.

Add explicit bounds checks for sample->cpu against MAX_CPUS inside
process_sched_switch_event, process_sched_runtime_event, and
timehist_sched_change_event. This prevents indexing beyond the boundaries
of the sched->curr_pid tracking array, avoiding potential memory corruption or
undefined behavior.

Sanitize order and migrate_type values from tracepoint payloads before using
them as array indexes.

When processing page_alloc_event and page_free_event, verify that 'order' is less
than MAX_PAGE_ORDER and 'migrate_type' is less than MAX_MIGRATE_TYPES. This
guarantees that indexing into order_stats[MAX_PAGE_ORDER][MAX_MIGRATE_TYPES] remains
strictly within bounds, avoiding out-of-bound heap or static segment accesses.

00b36b394c perf timechart: Fix memory leaks
Resolve a major execution-time leak of backtrace strings in the timechart tool.

- Modify cat_backtrace() to return dynamically allocated memory via
  open_memstream(), transferring ownership to the caller.
- Free the returned backtrace string inside process_sample_event() immediately
  after invoking the tracepoint handler.
- In handlers like pid_put_sample() and sched_wakeup(), make a separate copy of
  the backtrace using strdup() if it needs to be persisted in the sample struct,
  preventing lifetime issues and double-free vulnerabilities.

5e807647e1 perf script: Don't pass evsel with sample
As struct perf_sample now directly contains its own resolved evsel pointer,
passing the evsel separately is redundant and clutters the interface.

Remove the redundant evsel parameter from script-specific handlers and
structures, ensuring the tool always directly accesses the evsel bound to the
sample. This simplifies the API signatures and eliminates the risk of passing
an inconsistent evsel.

948b5874ef perf db-export: Remove evsel from struct export_sample
As struct perf_sample now directly contains its own resolved evsel pointer,
passing the evsel separately is redundant and clutters the interface.

Remove the redundant evsel parameter from db-export-specific handlers and
structures, ensuring the tool always directly accesses the evsel bound to the
sample. This simplifies the API signatures and eliminates the risk of passing
an inconsistent evsel.

[ Fixed up conflict with "perf inject: Fix itrace branch stack synthesis" series ]

daac18e7c4 perf inject: Fix itrace branch stack synthesis
When using "perf inject --itrace=L" to synthesize branch stacks from
AUX data, several issues caused failures with the generated file:

1. The synthesized samples were delivered without the
   PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK flag if it was not in the original event's
   sample_type. Fixed by using sample_type | evsel->synth_sample_type
   in intel_pt_do_synth_pebs_sample.

2. Modifying evsel->core.attr.sample_type early in __cmd_inject caused
   parse failures for subsequent records in the input file. Fixed by
   moving this modification to just before writing the header.

3. perf_event__repipe_sample was narrowed to only synthesize samples
   when branch stack injection was requested, and restored the use of
   perf_inject__cut_auxtrace_sample as a fallback to preserve
   functionality.

4. Potential Heap Overflow in perf_event__repipe_sample: Addressed by
   adding a check that prints an error and returns -EFAULT if the
   calculated event size exceeds PERF_SAMPLE_MAX_SIZE.

5. Header vs Payload Mismatch in __cmd_inject: Addressed by narrowing
   the condition so that HEADER_BRANCH_STACK is only set in the file
   header if add_last_branch was true.

6. NULL Pointer Dereference in intel-pt.c: When branch stack injection
   is requested (add_last_branch is true) but last_branch is false
   (e.g., perf inject --itrace=L), ptq->last_branch was not allocated.
   However, PEBS branch stack synthesis (via synth_sample_type) still
   forced LBR handling in do_synth_pebs_sample(), dereferencing the
   NULL ptq->last_branch pointer. Guarding the dereference is not
   sufficient because downstream sample size calculation and synthesis
   strictly require a non-NULL branch_stack when the bit is set.
   Fixed by ensuring ptq->last_branch is allocated in
   intel_pt_alloc_queue() when add_last_branch is requested.

7. Modifying event attributes in perf_event__repipe_attr in-place caused
   SIGSEGV on read-only mmap buffers in file mode and downstream parser
   breakage in pipe mode. Fixed by processing the unmodified attribute
   first, returning immediately in non-pipe mode, and correctly
   synthesizing a new attribute event for pipe output using
   perf_event__synthesize_attr. Also:
   - Added a size validation check and integer underflow protection when
     parsing n_ids.
   - Prevented Trailing ID memory corruption by zero-initializing the
     local attr copy and safely copying using min_t(size_t, sizeof(attr),
     event->attr.attr.size).
   - Resolved ID array parsing mismatch downstream by expanding attr.size
     to sizeof(struct perf_event_attr) before synthesis to guarantee
     perfect header/attribute size alignment.

8. Potential dangling pointer vulnerability in perf_event__repipe_sample:
   Addressed by restoring the original sample->branch_stack pointer
   before returning, including on early error return paths.

9. Off-by-one error in sample size check in perf_event__repipe_sample:
   Fixed by checking if sz >= PERF_SAMPLE_MAX_SIZE instead of >.

10. Unadvertised size field left in payload by cut_auxtrace_sample:
    Addressed by excluding the 8-byte size field from the copied
    payload to correctly match the cleared PERF_SAMPLE_AUX bit. Cut
    the AUX sample payload even if size is 0.

11. Inaccurate sample size calculation and uninitialized memory leaks in
    convert_sample_callchain: Fixed by replacing manual arithmetic with
    perf_event__sample_event_size and adding a bounds check against
    PERF_SAMPLE_MAX_SIZE.

12. Omission of branch_sample_type in file headers: Addressed by
    expanding older, smaller attributes to PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER2 in
    __cmd_inject to ensure branch_sample_type is not silently omitted.

059e9100d8 perf event: Fix size of synthesized sample with branch stacks
Synthesizing branch stacks for Intel-PT highlighted an issue where
PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX was assumed to always be set in the
perf_event_attr branch_sample_type. This caused an incorrect size
calculation.

Fix the writing of the nr and hw_idx values during sample event
synthesis by passing the branch_sample_type into the sample size
and synthesis functions. Also update hardware tracers (Intel PT,
ARM SPE, CS-ETM) to retrieve and pass their branch_sample_type
dynamically to prevent payload misalignment.

017bca78e4 perf build-id: Fix off-by-one bug when printing kernel/module build-id
When changing sprintf functions to snprintf, one byte got lost. Since
snprintf ones do not handle the '\0' terminating character, the number
of printed characters is 40, while sizeof(sbuild_id) is 41, including
the terminating '\0' character.

This makes the later check fail so that nothing is printed.

Fix that.

    [Michael@Carbon ~]$ perf buildid-list -k

b5050b133e perf clang-format: Add a perf clang-format that overrides some kernel behaviors
In particular, header file ordering is an issue in the tools/perf
directory given the larger number of depended upon libraries.

The order of header file includes was proposed in:

  https://lore.kernel.org/linux-perf-users/CAP-5=fUitzKwJONTngiW17XkS7kVr2cDS4cDL_HccJKcnR2EgQ@mail.gmail.com/

Sorting headers is desirable to avoid issues like duplicate includes.

6a082433bc perf riscv: Add SDT argument parsing for RISC-V
Implement __perf_sdt_arg_parse_op_riscv() to convert RISC-V GCC-generated
SDT probe operands into uprobe-compatible format, and register it in the
perf_sdt_arg_parse_op() dispatcher for EM_RISCV.

RISC-V GCC uses the 'nor' constraint for SDT arguments, producing operands
in the following formats:

  Format       Example      Uprobe format
  -----------  -----------  -------------
  register     a0           %a0
  memory (+)   8(a0)        +8(%a0)
  memory (-)   -20(s0)      -20(%s0)
  constant     99           (skip, not supported by uprobe)

Key differences from other architectures:
 - Register names use ABI aliases (a0-a7, t0-t6, s0-s11, sp, ra, etc.)
   without any '%' prefix, unlike x86 (%rax) or arm64 (x0).
 - Memory operands use OFFSET(REG) syntax where OFFSET may be negative,
   unlike arm64's [sp, NUM] or powerpc's NUM(%rREG).

Two regexes are used:
 - SDT_OP_REGEX1: matches RISC-V ABI register names saved in pt_regs
 - SDT_OP_REGEX2: matches [-]NUM(REG) memory operands

e445b78ffb perf trace: Introduce --show-cpu option to display cpu id
When tracing system-wide workloads or specific events, it is highly
valuable to know exactly which CPU executed a specific event. Currently,
perf trace output defaults to omitting CPU information.

Introduce a new "--show-cpu" command-line option. When provided, this
flag extracts the CPU from the perf sample and prints it in a "[000]"
format immediately following the timestamp. This mirrors the behaviour of
other tracing tools like ftrace and perf script. For example:

  # perf trace -e sched:sched_switch --max-events 5 --show-cpu
       0.000 [002] :0/0 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm: "swapper/2", prev_prio: 120, next_comm: "rcu_preempt", next_pid: 16 (rcu_preempt), next_prio: 120)
       0.009 [002] rcu_preempt/16 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm: "rcu_preempt", prev_pid: 16 (rcu_preempt), prev_prio: 120, prev_state: 128, next_comm: "swapper/2", next_prio: 120)
       0.033 [002] :0/0 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm: "swapper/2", prev_prio: 120, next_comm: "kworker/u32:48", next_pid: 35840 (kworker/u32:48-), next_prio: 120)
       0.041 [002] kworker/u32:48/35840 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm: "kworker/u32:48", prev_pid: 35840 (kworker/u32:48-), prev_prio: 120, prev_state: 128, next_comm: "swapper/2", next_prio: 120)
       0.045 [002] :0/0 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm: "swapper/2", prev_prio: 120, next_comm: "kworker/u32:48", next_pid: 35840 (kworker/u32:48-), next_prio: 120)

The feature is implemented strictly as an opt-in toggle to prevent
cluttering the standard output and to preserve backwards compatibility
for scripts parsing the default output format.

2e2ba7d1ea perf pmu: Skip test on Arm64 when #slots is zero
Some Arm64 PMUs expose 'caps/slots' as 0 when the slot count is not
implemented, tool_pmu__read_event() currently returns false for this,
so metrics that reference #slots are reported as syntax error.

Since the commit 3a61fd866e ("perf expr: Return -EINVAL for syntax
error in expr__find_ids()"), these syntax errors are populated as
failures and make the PMU metric test fail:

    9.3: Parsing of PMU event table metrics:
    --- start ---
    ...

    Found metric 'backend_bound'
    metric expr 100 * (stall_slot_backend / (#slots * cpu_cycles)) for backend_bound
    parsing metric: 100 * (stall_slot_backend / (#slots * cpu_cycles))
    Failure to read '#slots'
    literal: #slots = nan
    syntax error
    Fail to parse metric or group `backend_bound'

    ...
    ---- end(-1) ----
    9.3: Parsing of PMU event table metrics    : FAILED!

This commit introduces a new function is_expected_broken_metric() to
identify broken metrics, and treats metrics containing "#slots" as
expected broken when #slots == 0 on Arm64 platforms.

88b4275ff5 perf unwind-libunwind: Remove libunwind-local
Local unwinding only works on the machine libunwind is built for,
rather than cross platform, the APIs for remote and local unwinding
are similar but types like unw_word_t depend on the included
header. Place the architecture specific code into the appropriate
libunwind-<arch>.c file. Put generic code in unwind-libunwind.c and
use libunwind-arch to choose the correct implementation based on the
thread's e_machine. Structuring the code this way avoids including the
unwind-libunwind-local.c for each architecture of remote
unwinding. Data is moved into the struct unwind_info to simplify the
architecture and generic code, trying to keep as much code as possible
generic.

2723e9f8b5 perf unwind-libunwind: Move flush/finish access out of local
Flush and finish access are relatively simple calls into libunwind,
move them out struct unwind_libunwind_ops. So that the correct version
can be called, add an e_machine variable to maps. This size regression
will go away when the unwind_libunwind_ops no longer need stashing in
the maps. To set the e_machine up pass it into unwind__prepare_access,
which no longer needs to determine the unwind operations based on a
map dso because of this. This also means the maps copying code can
call unwind__prepare_access once for the e_machine rather than once
per map.

tools headers UAPI: Sync case-sensitivity flags from linux/fs.h
The case-sensitivity series adds FS_XFLAG_CASEFOLD and
FS_XFLAG_CASENONPRESERVING to include/uapi/linux/fs.h, and
tools/perf/check-headers.sh would warn about the resulting drift
in the perf beauty copy.  Pick up only those two flags (and the
surrounding comment block) so the series does not introduce new
drift of its own.

This is not a full sync.  The perf copy is also missing the
FS_IOC_SHUTDOWN block added by commit 1f662195db ("fs: add
generic FS_IOC_SHUTDOWN definitions").  Because
tools/perf/check-headers.sh emits a single warning per file, that
warning will remain active until the older drift is picked up
too; closing it is left to a separate sync outside this series.

4248ae6e79 perf unwind: Refactor get_entries to allow dynamic libdw/libunwind selection
Currently, both libdw and libunwind define 'unwind__get_entries'. This
causes a duplicate symbol build failure when both are compiled into
perf.

This commit refactors the DWARF unwind post-processing to be
configurable at runtime via the .perfconfig file option
'unwind.style', or using the argument '--unwind-style' in the commands
'perf report', 'perf script' and 'perf inject', in a similar manner to
the addr2line or the disassembler style.

The file 'tools/perf/util/unwind.c' adds the top-level dispatch
function 'unwind__get_entries'. The backend implementations are
renamed to 'libdw__get_entries' and 'libunwind__get_entries'. Both are
attempted as fallbacks if not configured, or if the primary backend
fails.

41a543c86d perf pmu-events AMD: Switch l2_itlb_misses to bp_l1_tlb_miss_l2_tlb_miss.all
l2_itlb_misses is a valid legacy cache event name, hence allowing it
in all_events in metric.py. l2_itlb_misses was also a json event for
AMD zen1, zen2 and zen3.

For zen4, zen5 and zen6 the checking that metric events are within the
json was skipping l2_itlb_misses as it is a valid legacy event, however,
the PMU driver lacks the event mapping causing it to be a bad event when
used in the metric.

Add bp_l1_tlb_miss_l2_tlb_miss.all as the l2 itlb miss event (bp =
branch predictor, the AMD way to say itlb), so that is used in
preference to l2_itlb_misses when the event exists.

Remove l2_itlb_misses from metric.py as the legacy event isn't used by
any metrics and having it is error prone for newer AMD zen models.

issues due to the use of weak symbols. Move the adding of LR to the
sample_user_regs into arm64-frame-pointer-unwind-support.c conditional
on EM_HOST == EM_AARCH64 (false on all non-ARM64 builds).

This also better encapsulates the use of the sampled registers by
get_leaf_frame_caller_aarch64 and the set up by the new
add_leaf_frame_caller_opts_aarch64, exposing opportunities for possibly
sampling PC and SP to help the unwinder.

09d355618f perf tool: Fix missing schedstat delegates and dont_split_sample_group in delegate_tool
delegate_tool was missing the delegate overrides for schedstat_cpu
and schedstat_domain. As a result, when allocated with zalloc, these
callbacks defaulted to NULL, causing a segmentation fault crash if
any schedstat events were delivered during event processing.
Fix this by adding delegate_schedstat_cpu and delegate_schedstat_domain
via the CREATE_DELEGATE_OP2 macro, and ensuring delegate_tool__init
correctly registers them.

Additionally, delegate_tool__init completely omitted copying the
dont_split_sample_group property from the delegate. This would cause
wrapper tools to default the flag to false, which corrupts piped event
processing (e.g., in perf inject) by triggering duplicate event
deliveries on split sample values in deliver_sample_group().

Similarly, perf_tool__init() omitted the initialization of this
boolean field. On stack-allocated tools that rely on this initializer
(like intel-tpebs or __cmd_evlist), this could result in uninitialized
stack garbage evaluating to true—silently dropping non-leader event
members in deliver_sample_group().

Fix both issues by properly copying the field in delegate_tool__init
and initializing it to false in perf_tool__init.

Fixes: 6331b26693 ("perf tool: Add a delegate_tool that just delegates actions to another tool")
Fixes: 79bcd34e0f ("perf inject: Fix leader sampling inserting additional samples")

9118274136 perf sched: Add missing mmap2 handler in timehist
perf_sched__timehist() registers event handlers for options using the
sched->tool struct. It registers handlers for MMAP, COMM, EXIT, FORK, etc.
but completely omits registering a handler for MMAP2 events.

Failing to register both MMAP and MMAP2 handlers causes modern systems
(which primarily output MMAP2 records) to silently drop VMA map mappings.
This results in uninitialized machine/thread mapping structures, making it
impossible to resolve shared library instruction pointers (IPs) to dynamic
symbols/DSOs during timehist callchain analysis.

Fix this by correctly registering perf_event__process_mmap2 in
sched->tool inside perf_sched__timehist().

111388a0c0 perf sched stats: Fix segmentation faults, memory leaks, and stale pointers in diff mode
The patch addresses multiple segmentation fault vectors, out-of-bounds
reads, and memory leaks in perf sched stats by adding bounds checks,
NULL checks, proper error propagation, and robust memory cleanup.

1. In get_all_cpu_stats(), added assert(!list_empty(head)) to prevent
   unsafe list_first_entry() calls on empty lists, added a missing NULL
   check for summary_head->cpu_data allocation, and implemented a cleanup
   ladder using a temporary list to prevent memory leaks on error paths.

2. In free_schedstat(), fixed memory leaks by ensuring internal domain_data
   and cpu_data pointers are freed.

3. In show_schedstat_data(), fixed a stale pointer issue where ds2 retained
   its value from a previous iteration when dptr2 became NULL, and added
   proper propagation of errors from get_all_cpu_stats().

4. Propagated show_schedstat_data() errors up to perf_sched__schedstat_diff()
   and perf_sched__schedstat_live() to prevent output corruption on failure.

5. In show_schedstat_data(), added NULL checks for cd_map1 and cd_map2
   to gracefully handle invalid or empty data files.

6. Added parallel iteration termination checks using list_is_last() in
   show_schedstat_data() for both domain and CPU lists to safely terminate
   at the end of each list when files contain a different number of CPUs
   or domains.

7. Added CPU bounds checks (cs1->cpu >= nr1 and cs2->cpu >= nr2) in
   show_schedstat_data() to prevent out-of-bounds reads from cd_map1 and
   cd_map2 when comparing files from machines with different CPU counts.

8. Added NULL checks for cd_info1 and cd_info2 to prevent crashes when
   a CPU has data samples but no corresponding domain info in the header.

9. Added domain bounds checks (ds1->domain >= cd_info1->nr_domains and
   ds2->domain >= cd_info2->nr_domains) to prevent out-of-bounds array
   accesses in the domains array.

10. Added NULL checks for dinfo1 and dinfo2 in show_schedstat_data()
    to prevent crashes when a domain has no corresponding domain info.

11. Zero-initialized the perf_data array in perf_sched__schedstat_diff()
    to prevent stack garbage from causing perf_data_file__fd() to attempt
    to use a NULL fptr when use_stdio happened to be non-zero.

e1c19cd376 perf test: Fix "trace summary" test for musl-based systems
The trace summary test calls /bin/true and filters for open, read and
close events. These events are coming from shared library loads.

On a musl system, the loader and libc may point to the same file. true
needs only libc, no further shared libraries are loaded at startup. The
test fails since no open, read and close events are captured.

  root@host:~# ldd /bin/true
	/lib/ld-musl-riscv64.so.1 (0x3fb8882000)
	libc.so => /lib/ld-musl-riscv64.so.1 (0x3fb8882000)

  root@host:~# file /lib/ld-musl-riscv64.so.1
  /lib/ld-musl-riscv64.so.1: symbolic link to /usr/lib/libc.so

  root@host:~# strace -f /bin/true
  execve("/bin/true", ["/bin/true", ...], ... /* 18 vars */) = 1
  set_tid_address(0x3fa1f7bf70)           = 330
  mprotect(0x2ad6b8e000, 12288, PROT_READ) = 0
  exit_group(0)                           = ?
  +++ exited with 0 +++

Run "cat /dev/null" instead of "true". This creates the required events
regardless of the C library and it works for cat from busybox or from
coreutils.

8cf4d17ec7 perf arm_spe: Store MIDR in arm_spe_pkt
The MIDR will affect printing of arm_spe_pkts, so store a copy of it
there. Technically it's constant for each decoder, but there is no
decoder when doing a raw dump, so it has to be stored in every packet.
It will only be used in raw dump mode and not in normal decoding for
now, but to avoid any surprises, set MIDR properly on the decoder too.

Having both the MIDR and the arm_spe_pkt (which has a copy of it) in the
decoder seemed a bit weird, so remove arm_spe_pkt from the decoder. The
packet is only short lived anyway so probably shouldn't have been there
in the first place.

0c7e4d11fb perf arm_spe: Handle missing CPU IDs
Don't call strtol() with a null pointer to avoid undefined behavior.

I'm not sure of the exact scenario for missing CPU IDs but I don't think
it happens in practice. SPE decoding can continue without them with
reduced functionality, but print an error message anyway.

ae15db3e9b perf callchain: Handle multiple address spaces
perf test 'perf inject to convert DWARF callchains to regular ones'
fails on s390. It was introduced with commit 92ea788d2a ("perf
inject: Add --convert-callchain option")

The failure comes the difference in output. Without the inject script to
convert DWARF the callchains is:

 # perf record -F 999 --call-graph dwarf -- perf test -w noploop
 # perf report -i perf.data --stdio --no-children -q \
					 --percent-limit=1 > /tmp/111
 # cat /tmp/111
    99.30%  perf-noploop  perf               [.] noploop

            ---noploop

               __libc_start_main_impl (inlined)
               _start
 #

With the inject script step the output is:

 # perf inject -i perf.data --convert-callchain -o /tmp/perf-inject-1.out
 # perf report -i /tmp/perf-inject-1.out --stdio --no-children -q \
		--percent-limit=1 > /tmp/222

 #

The difference are the symbols __libc_start_call_main and
__libc_start_main_impl.

On x86_64, kernel and user space share a single virtual address space,
with the kernel mapped to the upper end of memory. The instruction
pointer value alone is sufficient to distinguish between user space and
kernel space addresses.

This is not true for s390, which uses separate address spaces for user
and kernel.

The same virtual address can be valid in both address spaces, so the
instruction pointer value alone cannot determine whether an address
belongs to the kernel or user space.

Instead, perf must rely on the cpumode metadata derived from the
processor status word (PSW) at sample time.

In function perf_event__convert_sample_callchain() the first part
copies a kernel callchain and context entries, if any.

It then appends additional entries ignoring the address space
architecture. Taking that into account, the symbols at addresses

   0x3ff970348cb __libc_start_call_main
   0x3ff970349c5 __libc_start_main_impl

(located after the kernel address space on s390) are now included.

Output before:

 # perf test 83
 83: perf inject to convert DWARF callchains to regular ones : FAILED!

Output after:
 # perf test 83
 83: perf inject to convert DWARF callchains to regular ones : Ok

Question to Namhyung:

In function perf_event__convert_sample_callchain() just before the
for() loop this patch modifies, the kernel callchain is copied,
see this comment and the next 5 lines:

   /* copy kernel callchain and context entries */

Then why is machine__kernel_ip() needed in the for() loop, when
the kernel entries have been copied just before the loop?

Note: This patch was tested on x86_64 virtual machine and succeeded.

Check return values of `dwarf_decl_line` (where non-optional),

stack variables or incorrectly reporting success on failure.

For the root DIE in `die_walk_lines()`, `dwarf_decl_line` and
`die_get_decl_file` are optional and their failures are handled
gracefully to avoid breaking line walking on valid functions.
Specifically, remove the strict `!decf` (declared file) check that
would prematurely abort line walking on generated or artificial
functions lacking this optional attribute.

Additionally:
 - Add NULL pointer protection for `strcmp()` in `die_walk_lines()`
   when `inf` or `decf` are NULL to prevent crashes on generated
   code.
 - Use `dwarf_attr_integrate` in `die_get_data_member_location` to

   origin or specification).

d37a546770 perf dwarf-aux: Fix libdw segmentation fault in cu_walk_functions_at
A segmentation fault was observed in `libdw` when running `perf kmem`
with `--page stat` on some workloads. The crash occurred deep inside
`libdw` (specifically in `dwarf_child` and `dwarf_diename`) when
processing DWARF information.

The root cause was improper error handling of `dwarf_getfuncs` in
`die_find_realfunc` and `die_find_tailfunc`.

`dwarf_getfuncs` returns:
 - `0` on success (when all functions have been processed).
 - A positive offset if the callback aborts early (e.g., via
   `DWARF_CB_ABORT` when a match is found).
 - `-1` on error.

The original code used `if (!dwarf_getfuncs(...)) return NULL;`. On
error (`-1`), `!-1` evaluates to `0` (false), bypassing the error
check. Execution then proceeded as if a match was found, returning
uninitialized stack memory (`die_mem`) to the caller
(`cu_walk_functions_at`). When `cu_walk_functions_at` passed this
uninitialized memory to `libdw` via `dwarf_diename`, it caused a
segmentation fault.

Fix this by correcting the error check to `if (dwarf_getfuncs(...) <= 0)`.

a355eefc36 perf annotate: Use jump__delete when freeing LoongArch jumps
Currently, the initialization of loongarch_jump_ops does not contain an
assignment to its .free field. This causes disasm_line__free() to fall
through to ins_ops__delete() for LoongArch jump instructions.

ins_ops__delete() will free ins_operands.source.raw and
ins_operands.source.name, and these fields overlaps with
ins_operands.jump.raw_comment and ins_operands.jump.raw_func_start.
Since in loongarch_jump__parse(), these two fields are populated by
strchr()-ing the same buffer, trying to free them will lead to undefined
behavior.

This invalid free usually leads to crashes:

86d1095fdb perf test: Fixes for check branch stack sampling
When filtering branch stack samples on user events they sample in user
land but may have come from the kernel. Aarch64 avoids leaking the
kernel address for kaslr reasons but other platforms, for now,
don't. Be more permissive in allowing kernel addresses in the source
of user branch stacks.

When filtering branch stack samples on kernel events they sample in
kernel land but may have come from user land. Avoid the target being a
user address but allow the source to be in user land. Aarch64 may not
leak the user land addresses (making them 0) but other platforms
do. As the kernel address sampling implies privelege, just allow this.

Increase the duration of the system call sampling test to make the
likelihood of sampling a system call higher (increased from 1000 to
8000 loops - a number found through experimentation on an Intel
Tigerlake laptop), also make the period of the event a prime number.

Put unneeded perf record output into a temporary file so that the test
output isn't cluttered. More clearly state which test is running and
the pass, fail or skipped result of the test.

These changes make the test on an Intel tigerlake laptop reliably pass
rather than reliably fail.

c7fe4e5665 perf test: Fix inet_pton probe failure and unroll call graph
When adding a probe for libc's inet_pton, perf probe may create multiple
probe points (e.g., due to inlining or multiple symbol resolutions),
resulting in multiple identical event names being output (e.g.,
`probe_libc:inet_pton_1`).

The script previously used a brittle pipeline (`tail -n +2 | head -n -5`)
and an awk script to extract the event name. When multiple probes were
added, awk would output the event name multiple times, which expanded
to multiple words in bash. This broke the subsequent `perf record` and
`perf probe -d` commands, causing the test to fail with:
`Error: another command except --add is set.`

Fix this by removing the brittle `tail/head` commands and appending
`| head -n 1` to the awk extraction. This ensures that only a single,
unique event name is captured, regardless of how many probe points
are created.

Additionally, the test artificially limited the backtrace size via
`max-stack=4` and did not specify dwarf call graphs for non-s390x
architectures. In newer libc versions where `inet_pton` is nested
deeper or compiled without frame pointers, `perf script` failed to resolve
the backtrace up to `/bin/ping`. Fix this by explicitly collecting
dwarf call-graphs for all architectures and increasing `max-stack` to 8.

97ab89686a perf build: fix "argument list too long" in second location
Turns out that displaying "RM $^" via quiet_cmd_rm can also upset the
shell and cause it to display "argument list too long".

Trying to quote $^ doesn't help.

In the end, *not* displaying the (potentially long) list of files is
probably the right thing to do for a "quiet" message, anyway. Instead,
let's display a count of how many files were removed. There is always
V=1 if more detail is required.

  TEST    linux/tools/perf/pmu-events/metric_test.log
  RM      ...634 orphan file(s)...
  LD      linux/tools/perf/util/perf-util-in.o

Also move the comment regarding xargs before the rule, so it doesn't
show up in the build output.

4e03d6494f perf arm_spe: Improve SIMD flags setting
Fill in ASE and SME operations for the SIMD arch field.

Also set the predicate flags for SVE and SME, but differences between
them: SME does not have a predicate flag, so the setting is based on
events. SVE provides a predicate flag to indicate whether the predicate
is disabled, which allows it to be distinguished into four cases: full
predicates, empty predicates, fully predicated, and disabled predicates.

4cf1f549bb perf test: Make perf trace BTF general tests exclusive
Running both tests cases 126 128 together causes the first test case

 # for i in $(seq 3); do ./perf test 'perf trace BTF general tests' \
	'perf trace record and replay'; done

Test case 126 fails because test case 128 runs concurrently as can
be observed using a ps -ef | grep perf output list on a different

As suggested in an unrelated sashiko review:

  https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260407195145.2372104-1-acme%40kernel.org

"
Could a malformed perf.data file provide out-of-bounds values for cpu and
domain?
These variables are read directly from the file and used as indices for
cd_map and cd_map[cpu]->domains without any validation against
env->nr_cpus_avail or max_sched_domains.
Similar to the issue above, this is an existing lack of validation that
becomes apparent when looking at the allocation boundaries.

046fd8206d perf tools: Make more global variables static
`make check` will run sparse on the perf code base. A frequent warning
is "warning: symbol '...' was not declared. Should it be static?" Go
through and make global definitions without declarations static.

In some cases it is deliberate due to dlsym accessing the symbol, this
change doesn't clean up the missing declarations for perf test suites.

Sometimes things can opportunistically be made const.

Making somethings static exposed unused functions warnings, so
restructuring of ifdefs was necessary for that.

These changes reduce the size of the perf binary by 568 bytes.

Committer notes:

Refreshed the patch, the original one fell thru the cracks, updated the
size reduction.

Remove the trace-event-scripting.c changes, break the build, noticed
with container builds and with sashiko:

  https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260401215306.2152898-1-acme%40kernel.org

Also make two variables static to address another sashiko review

The deferred stack trace code wasn't using perf_sample__init/exit. Add
the deferred stack trace clean up to perf_sample__exit which requires
proper NULL initialization in perf_sample__init. Make the
perf_sample__exit robust to being called more than once by using
zfree. Make the error paths in evsel__parse_sample exit the
sample. Add a merged_callchain boolean to capture that callchain is
allocated, deferred_callchain doen't suffice for this. Pack the struct
variables to avoid padding bytes for this.

Similiarly powerpc_vpadtl_sample wasn't using perf_sample__init/exit,
use it for consistency and potential issues with uninitialized
variables.

Similarly guest_session__inject_events in builtin-inject wasn't using
perf_sample_init/exit. The lifetime management for fetched events is
somewhat complex there, but when an event is fetched the sample should
be initialized and needs exiting on error. The sample may be left in

08ee155905 prctl: cfi: change the branch landing pad prctl()s to be more descriptive
Per Linus' comments requesting the replacement of "INDIR_BR_LP" in the
indirect branch tracking prctl()s with something more readable, and
suggesting the use of the speculation control prctl()s as an exemplar,
reimplement the prctl()s and related constants that control per-task
forward-edge control flow integrity.

This primarily involves two changes.  First, the prctls are
restructured to resemble the style of the speculative execution
workaround control prctls PR_{GET,SET}_SPECULATION_CTRL, to make them
easier to extend in the future.  Second, the "indir_br_lp" abbrevation
is expanded to "branch_landing_pads" to be less telegraphic.  The
kselftest and documentation is adjusted accordingly.

210259987d perf metrics: Make common stalled metrics conditional on having the event
The metric code uses the event parsing code but it generally assumes
all events are supported. Arnaldo reported AMD supporting
stalled-cycles-frontend but not stalled-cycles-backend [1]. An issue
with this is that before parsing happens the metric code tries to
share events within groups to reduce the number of events and
multiplexing. If the group has some supported and not supported
events, the whole group will become broken. To avoid this situation
add has_event tests to the metrics for stalled-cycles-frontend and
stalled-cycles-backend. has_events is evaluated when parsing the
metric and its result constant propagated (with if-elses) to reduce
the number of events. This means when the metric code considers
sharing the events, only supported events will be shared.

Note for backporting. This change updates
tools/perf/pmu-events/empty-pmu-events.c a convenience file for builds
on systems without python present. While the metrics.json code should
backport easily there can be conflicts on empty-pmu-events.c. In this
case the build will have left a file test-empty-pmu-events.c that can
be copied over empty-pmu-events.c to resolve issues and make an
appropriate empty-pmu-events.c for the json in the source tree at the
time of the build.

8a4aab17c3 perf header: Refactor pipe mode end marker handling
In non-pipe/data mode the header has a 256-bit bitmap representing
whether a feature is enabled or not. In pipe mode features are written
out in perf_event__synthesize_features as PERF_RECORD_HEADER_FEATURE
events with a special zero sized marker for the last feature. If a new
feature is added the last feature marker event appears as that feature
from old pipe mode perf data. As the event is zero sized it will fail
to be processed and generally terminate perf.

Add a last_feat variable to the header that in non-pipe/data mode is
just HEADER_LAST_FEATURE. In pipe mode compute the last_feat by
handling zero sized feature events, assuming they are the marker and
updating last_feat accordingly. Potentially a feature event could be
zero sized and so still process the feature event, just ignore the
error if it fails.

As perf_event__process_feature can properly handle pipe mode data,
migrate users to it except for report that still wants to group events
and stop header printing with the last feature marker. Make
perf_event__process_feature non-fatal in the case of a newer feature
than this version of perf's HEADER_LAST_FEATURE, which was the
behavior all users wanted.

on hybrid PMU's with auto counter reload support. Instead, iterate over the
event group generated for each core PMU. Also update "wrong leader" test to
check that the subordinate event has the correct leader instead of checking
that it is not the group leader. Finally, do not exit immediately if a PMU
without auto counter reload support is found.

9a82bfde47 perf tools: Fix module symbol resolution for non-zero .text sh_addr
When perf resolves symbols from kernel module ELF files (ET_REL),
it converts symbol addresses to file offsets so that sample IPs
can be matched to the correct symbol. The conversion adjusts each
symbol's st_value:

  sym->st_value -= shdr->sh_addr - shdr->sh_offset;

For vmlinux (ET_EXEC), st_value is a virtual address and sh_addr
is the section's virtual base, so subtracting sh_addr and adding
sh_offset correctly yields a file offset.

For kernel modules (ET_REL), st_value is a section-relative
offset. The module loader ignores sh_addr entirely and places
symbols at module_base + st_value. Converting to file offset
requires only adding sh_offset; subtracting sh_addr introduces an
error equal to sh_addr bytes.

When .text has sh_addr == 0 -- the historical norm for simple
modules -- both formulas produce the same result and the bug is
latent. As modules gain more metadata sections before .text (.note,
.static_call.text, etc.), the linker assigns .text a non-zero
sh_addr, exposing the defect. For example, nfsd.ko on this kernel
has sh_addr=0xa80, kvm-intel.ko has sh_addr=0x1e90.

The effect is that all .text symbols in affected modules
shift by sh_addr bytes relative to sample IPs, causing perf
report to attribute samples to incorrect, nearby symbols. This
was observed as 13% of LLC-load-miss samples misattributed
to nfsd_file_get_dio_attrs when the actual hot function was
nfsd_cache_lookup, approximately 0xa80 bytes away in the symbol
table.

Use the existing dso__rel() flag (already set for ET_REL modules)
to select the correct adjustment: add sh_offset for ET_REL,
subtract (sh_addr - sh_offset) for ET_EXEC/ET_DYN.

b5708a308a perf stat: Fix crash on arm64
Perf stat is crashing on arm64 hosts with the following issue:

  # make -C tools/perf DEBUG=1
  # perf stat sleep 1
  perf: util/evsel.c:2034: get_group_fd: Assertion `!(!leader->core.fd)' failed.
  [1]    1220794 IOT instruction (core dumped)  ./perf stat

The sorting function introduced by commit a745c0831c ("perf stat:
Sort default events/metrics") compares events based on their individual
properties. This can cause events from different groups to be
interleaved, resulting in group members appearing before their leaders
in the sorted evlist.

When the iterator opens events in list order, a group member may be
processed before its leader has been opened.

For example, CPU_CYCLES (idx=32) with leader STALL_SLOT_BACKEND (idx=37)
could be sorted before its leader, causing the crash when CPU_CYCLES
tries to get its group fd from the not-yet-opened leader.

Fix this by comparing events based on their leader's attributes instead
of their own attributes when the events are in different groups. This
ensures all members of a group share the same sort key as their leader,
keeping groups together and guaranteeing leaders are opened before their
members.

e397dd81bc perf report: Add comm_nodigit sort key
The "comm" column allows grouping events by the process command. It is
intended to group like programs, despite having different PIDs. But some
workloads may adjust their own command, so that a unique identifier
(e.g. a PID or some other numeric value) is part of the command name.
This destroys the utility of "comm", forcing perf to place each unique
process name into its own bucket, which can contribute to a
combinatorial explosion of memory use in perf report.

Create a less strict version of this column, which ignores digits when
comparing command names. Commands whose names are the same (ignoring
digits) are sorted into the same histogram buckets, and displayed with
the placeholder value "<N>" in the place of digits. For example,
hypothetical command names "kworker/1" "kworker/2" "kworker/3" would
sort into the same bucket and be represented as "kworker/<N>".

Committer testing:

  $ perf report -s comm,comm_nodigit | grep -F "<N>"
       0.01%  CPU 6/TCG        CPU <N>/TCG
       0.01%  kworker/53:2-mm  kworker/<N>:<N>-mm

Previously, only the first DWARF location entry was collected for each

could reconstruct the remaining state. However, variables may have
different locations across different address ranges, and relying solely
on instruction tracking can miss valid type information.

Change __die_collect_vars_cb() to iterate over all location entries
using dwarf_getlocations() in a loop. This ensures that variables with

4fb7eefe6c perf annotate-data: Use DWARF location ranges to preserve reg state
When a function call occurs, caller-saved registers are typically
invalidated since the callee may clobber them. However, DWARF debug info
provides location ranges that indicate exactly where a variable is valid
in a register.

Track the DWARF location range end address in type_state_reg and use it
to determine if a caller-saved register should be preserved across a
call. If the current call address is within the DWARF-specified lifetime
of the variable, keep the register state valid instead of invalidating
it.

This improves type annotation for code where the compiler knows a
register value survives across calls (e.g., when the callee is known not
to clobber certain registers or when the value is reloaded after the
call at the same logical location).

Changes:
- Add `end` and `has_range` fields to die_var_type to capture DWARF
  location range information
- Add `lifetime_active` and `lifetime_end` fields to type_state_reg
- Check location lifetime before invalidating caller-saved registers

d35b0d5877 perf annotate-data: Invalidate caller-saved regs for all calls
Previously, the x86 call handler returned early without invalidating
caller-saved registers when the call target symbol could not be resolved
(func == NULL). This violated the ABI which requires caller-saved
registers to be considered clobbered after any call instruction.

Fix this by:
1. Always invalidating caller-saved registers for any call instruction
   (except __fentry__ which preserves registers)
2. Using dl->ops.target.name as fallback when func->name is unavailable,
   allowing return type lookup for more call targets

This is a conservative change that may reduce type coverage for indirect
calls (e.g., callq *(%rax)) where we cannot determine the return type
but it ensures correctness.

1b8db0c963 perf annotate-data: Handle global variable access with const register
When a register holds a constant value (TSR_KIND_CONST) and is used with
a negative offset, treat it as a potential global variable access
instead of falling through to CFA (frame) handling.

This fixes cases like array indexing with computed offsets:

    movzbl -0x7d72725a(%rax), %eax   # array[%rax]

Where %rax contains a computed index and the negative offset points to a
global array. Previously this fell through to the CFA path which doesn't
handle global variables, resulting in "no type information".

The fix redirects such accesses to check_kernel which calls
get_global_var_type() to resolve the type from the global variable
cache. This is only done for kernel DSOs since the pattern relies on
kernel-specific global variable resolution. We could also treat
registers with integer types to the global variable path, but this
requires more changes.

752e662ae0 perf annotate-data: Collect global variables without name
Previously, global_var__collect() required get_global_var_info() to
succeed (i.e., the variable must have a symbol name) before caching a
global variable. This prevented variables that exist in DWARF but lack
symbol table coverage from being cached.

Remove the symbol table requirement since DW_OP_addr already provides
the variable's address directly from DWARF. The symbol table lookup is
now optional to obtain the variable name when available.

Also remove the var_offset != 0 check, which was intended to skip
variables where the access address doesn't match the symbol start. The
symbol table lookup is now optional and I found removing this check has
no effect on the annotation results for both kernel and userspace
programs.

Test results show improved annotation coverage especially for userspace
programs with RIP-relative addressing instructions.

6ffc3d0d3d perf dwarf-aux: Handle array types in die_get_member_type
When a struct member is an array type, die_get_member_type() would stop
iterating since array types weren't handled in the loop. This caused
accesses to array elements within structs to not resolve properly.

Add array type handling by resolving the array to its element type and
calculating the offset within an element using modulo arithmetic

This improves type annotation coverage for struct members that are
arrays.

69953f9c65 perf annotate-data: Improve type comparison from different scopes
When comparing types from different scopes, first compare their type
offsets. A larger offset means the field belongs to an outer (enclosing)
struct. This helps resolve cases where a pointer is found in an inner
scope, but a struct containing that pointer exists in an outer scope.
Previously, is_better_type would prefer the pointer type, but the struct
type is actually more complete and should be chosen.

Prefer types from outer scopes when is_better_type cannot determine a
better type. This is a heuristic for the case `struct A { struct B; }`
where A and B have the same size but I think in most cases A is in the
outer scope and should be preferred.

8b8d8b8f17 perf dwarf-aux: Skip check_variable for variable lookup
Both die_find_variable_by_reg and die_find_variable_by_addr call
match_var_offset which already performs sufficient checking and type
matching. The additional check_variable call is redundant, and its
need_pointer logic is only a heuristic. Since DWARF encodes accurate
type information, which match_var_offset verifies, skipping
check_variable improves both coverage and accuracy.

Return the matched type from die_find_variable_by_reg and
die_find_variable_by_addr via the existing `type` field in

30b2e6fa58 perf dwarf-aux: Add die_get_pointer_type to get pointer types

to first resolve it to the underlying DW_TAG_pointer_type or
DW_TAG_array_type. A simple tag check is not enough and directly calling
__die_get_real_type() can stop at the pointer type (e.g. typedef ->
pointer) instead of the pointee type.

Add die_get_pointer_type() helper that follows typedef/qualifier chains

616cd6047c perf symbol: Add RISCV case in get_plt_sizes
According to RISC-V psABI specification, the PLT (Program Linkage Table)
has the following layout:
- The first PLT entry occupies two 16-byte entries (32 bytes total)
- Subsequent PLT entries take up 16 bytes each

This aligns with the binutils-gdb implementation which defines the same
PLT sizes for RISC-V architecture.

Update get_plt_sizes() to set plt_header_size=32 and plt_entry_size=16
for EM_RISCV, matching the architecture's standard ABI.

Since AARCH64, LOONGARCH, and RISCV have the same PLT size definition,
they are merged together.

35cd0098ee perf: tools: cs-etm: Enhance raw Coresight trace debug display
When compiling perf with CORESIGHT=1, an additional build option may
be used: CSTRACE_RAW=1, which will cause the CoreSight formatted trace
frames to be printed out during a perf --dump command. This is useful
when investigating issues with trace generation, decode or possible
data corruption.

e.g. for ETMv4 trace source into a formatted ETR sink a dump -

. ... CoreSight ETMV4I Trace data: size 0x28c150 bytes
Idx:0; ID:14;	I_ASYNC : Alignment Synchronisation.
Idx:12; ID:14;	I_TRACE_INFO : Trace Info.; INFO=0x0 { CC.0 };
                Decoder Sync point TINFO
Idx:17; ID:14;	I_ADDR_L_64IS0 : Address, Long, 64 bit, IS0.;
                Addr=0x0000000000000000;

becomes with CSTRACE_RAW=1:

. ... CoreSight ETMV4I Trace data: size 0x28c150 bytes
Frame Data; Index 0; ID_DATA[0x14]; 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
                                    00 00 00 80 01 01
Idx:0; ID:14;	I_ASYNC : Alignment Synchronisation.
Frame Data; Index 16; ID_DATA[0x14]; 00 9d 00 00 00 00 00 00
                                     00 00 04 85 57 08 f2
Idx:12; ID:14;	I_TRACE_INFO : Trace Info.; INFO=0x0 { CC.0 };
                Decoder Sync point TINFO
Idx:17; ID:14;	I_ADDR_L_64IS0 : Address, Long, 64 bit, IS0.;
                Addr=0x0000000000000000;

CSTRACE_RAW=1 has no effect on ETE + TRBE trace as there is no trace
formatting in the TRBE buffer.

This patch enhances the output so that for each packet the individual
bytes associated with the packet are printed.

Thus for ETMv4 this now becomes:

. ... CoreSight ETMV4I Trace data: size 0x28c150 bytes
Frame Data; Index 0; ID_DATA[0x14]; 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
                                    00 00 00 80 01 01
Idx:0; ID:14;[0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x80];
             I_ASYNC : Alignment Synchronisation.
Frame Data; Index 16; ID_DATA[0x14]; 00 9d 00 00 00 00 00 00
                                     00 00 04 85 57 08 f2
Idx:12; ID:14; [0x01 0x01 0x00 ]; I_TRACE_INFO : Trace Info.; INFO=0x0
                                  { CC.0 }; Decoder Sync point TINFO
Idx:17; ID:14; [0x9d 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 ];

	       Addr=0x0000000000000000;

ETE trace output changes from:

Idx:0; ID:14; I_ASYNC : Alignment Synchronisation.
Idx:12; ID:14; I_TRACE_INFO : Trace Info.; INFO=0x0 { CC.0, TSTATE.0 };
               Decoder Sync point TINFO

               Addr=0xFFFF80007CF7F56C;
becoming:

6c478e7b3e perf: tools: cs-etm: Fix print issue for Coresight debug in ETE/TRBE trace
Building perf with CORESIGHT=1 and the optional CSTRACE_RAW=1 enables
additional debug printing of raw trace data when using command:-
perf report --dump.

This raw trace prints the CoreSight formatted trace frames, which may be
used to investigate suspected issues with trace quality / corruption /
decode.

These frames are not present in ETE + TRBE trace.
This fix removes the unnecessary call to print these frames.

This fix also rationalises implementation - original code had helper
function that unnecessarily repeated initialisation calls that had
already been made.

Due to an addtional fault with the OpenCSD library, this call when ETE/TRBE
are being decoded will cause a segfault in perf. This fix also prevents
that problem for perf using older (<= 1.8.0 version) OpenCSD libraries.

72a8b9c060 perf parse-events: Fix big-endian 'overwrite' by writing correct union member
The "Read backward ring buffer" test crashes on big-endian (e.g. s390x)
due to a NULL dereference when the backward mmap path isn't enabled.

Reproducer:
  # ./perf test -F 'Read backward ring buffer'
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)
  # uname -m
  s390x
  #

Root cause:
get_config_terms() stores into evsel_config_term::val.val (u64) while later
code reads boolean fields such as evsel_config_term::val.overwrite.
On big-endian the 1-byte boolean is left-aligned, so writing
evsel_config_term::val.val = 1 is read back as
evsel_config_term::val.overwrite = 0,
leaving backward mmap disabled and a NULL map being used.

Store values in the union member that matches the term type, e.g.:
  /* for OVERWRITE */
  new_term->val.overwrite = 1;  /* not new_term->val.val = 1 */
to fix this. Improve add_config_term() and add two more parameters for
string and value. Function add_config_term() now creates a complete node
element of type evsel_config_term and handles all evsel_config_term::val
union members.

Impact:
Enables backward mmap on big-endian and prevents the crash.
No change on little-endian.

Output after:
 # ./perf test -Fv 44

35b16a7a2c perf synthetic-events: Fix stale build ID in module MMAP2 records
perf_event__synthesize_modules() allocates a single union perf_event and
reuses it across every kernel module callback.

After the first module is processed, perf_record_mmap2__read_build_id()
sets PERF_RECORD_MISC_MMAP_BUILD_ID in header.misc and writes that
module's build ID into the event.

On subsequent iterations the callback overwrites start, len, pid, and
filename for the next module but never clears the stale build ID fields
or the MMAP_BUILD_ID flag.

When perf_record_mmap2__read_build_id() runs for the second module it
sees the flag, reads the stale build ID into a dso_id, and
__dso__improve_id() permanently poisons the DSO with the wrong build ID.

Every module after the first therefore receives the first module's build
ID in its MMAP2 record.

On a system with the sunrpc and nfsd modules loaded, this causes perf
script and perf report to show [unknown] for all module symbols.

The latent bug has existed since commit d9f2ecbc5e ("perf dso:
Move build_id to dso_id") introduced the PERF_RECORD_MISC_MMAP_BUILD_ID
check in perf_record_mmap2__read_build_id().

Commit 53b00ff358 ("perf record: Make --buildid-mmap the default")
then exposed it to all users by making the MMAP2-with-build-ID path the
default.  Both commits were merged in the same series.

Clear the MMAP_BUILD_ID flag and zero the build_id union before each
call to perf_record_mmap2__read_build_id() so that every module starts
with a clean slate.

container or remote machine), the debug files are often stored in a
flat directory structure with only filenames, not the full original
paths. In this case, using 'flat' layout allows perf to find debug
symbols by matching only the filename rather than the full path.

For example, given a binary path like:
  /build/output/lib/foo.so

With 'perf report --symfs /debug/files,flat', perf will look for:
  /debug/files/foo.so

Instead of:
  /debug/files/build/output/lib/foo.so

This is particularly useful when:
- Extracting debug files from containers with different directory layouts
- Working with build systems that flatten directory structures

3c3b41e591 perf cs-etm: Finish removal of ETM_OPT_*
These #defines have been removed from the kernel headers in favour of
the string based PMU format attributes. Usages were previously removed
from the recording side of cs-etm in Perf. Finish the removal by
removing usages from the decode side too.

It's a straight replacement of the old #defines with the new register
bit definitions. Except cs_etm__setup_timeless_decoding() which wasn't
looking at the saved metadata and was instead hard coding an access to
'attr.config'. This was vulnerable to the same issue of .config being
moved to .config2 etc that the original removal of ETM_OPT_* tried to
fix. So fix that too.

Detect required target and pass it via rust_flags to the compiler.

Note that CROSS_COMPILE might be different from what rust compiler
expects, since it may omit the target vendor value, e.g.
"aarch64-linux-gnu" instead of "aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu".

Thus explicitly map supported CROSS_COMPILE values to corresponding Rust
versions, as suggested by Miguel Ojeda.

Tested using arm64 cross-compilation example from [1].

b6712d91f8 perf build: Prevent "argument list too long" error
Due to a recent change, building perf may result in a build error when
it is trying to "prune orphans".

The file list passed to "rm" may exceed what the shell can handle.

The build will then abort with an error like this:

    TEST    [...]/arm64/build/linux-custom/tools/perf/pmu-events/metric_test.log
  make[5]: /bin/sh: Argument list too long

  make[4]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  make[3]: *** [Makefile.perf:289: sub-make] Error 2

Processing the arguments via "xargs", instead of passing the list of
files directly to "rm" via the shell, prevents this issue.

0feca0b788 perf script: Fix brcntr output with --xed
brcntr in perf script brstack insn currently outputs

  $ perf record -j any,counter ...
  $ perf script -F +brcntr,+brstackinsn
  ...
              BC1s 3450809 5665912.127194:     100127
  cpu_core/cycles/:      7f0475d6cc89 handle_intel.constprop.0+0x2b

  ...

This has two issues:
- The description says no event is a single dash, but that is not what is printed.
- The b in brcntr is ambigious with the hex numbers in insns, which
  breaks with --xed. It parses the b as another instruction byte and
merges the instruction with a missing b and no space:

  $ perf script -F +brstackinsn,+brcntr --xed
  ...
          00005618c6d683b5                        jnz 0x5618c6d683bdr_cntr:       # PRED 5 cycles [1396] 8.60 IPC

This patches fixes these two problems. It moves the brcntr output into
the "#" comment which also looks nicer and also fixes the no event case.

  $ perf script -F +brstackinsn,+brcntr --xed
  ...
          00005618c6d6624f                        jnz 0x5618c6d65fb7 # br_cntr: -  MISPRED 1 cycles [1398] 3.00 IPC

Since the old broken format has shipped for a few releases there is a
risk of breaking some existing parser, but since this is a obscure
feature I hope they're not too common and can adapt.

aa6a6a2d16 perf parse-events: Fix big-endian 'overwrite' by writing correct union member
The "Read backward ring buffer" test crashes on big-endian (e.g. s390x)
due to a NULL dereference when the backward mmap path isn't enabled.

Reproducer:
  # ./perf test -F 'Read backward ring buffer'
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)
  # uname -m
  s390x
  #

Root cause:
get_config_terms() stores into evsel_config_term::val.val (u64) while later
code reads boolean fields such as evsel_config_term::val.overwrite.
On big-endian the 1-byte boolean is left-aligned, so writing
evsel_config_term::val.val = 1 is read back as
evsel_config_term::val.overwrite = 0,
leaving backward mmap disabled and a NULL map being used.

Store values in the union member that matches the term type, e.g.:
  /* for OVERWRITE */
  new_term->val.overwrite = 1;  /* not new_term->val.val = 1 */
to fix this. Improve add_config_term() and add two more parameters for
string and value. Function add_config_term() now creates a complete node
element of type evsel_config_term and handles all evsel_config_term::val
union members.

Impact:
Enables backward mmap on big-endian and prevents the crash.
No change on little-endian.

Output after:
 # ./perf test -Fv 44
 --- start ---
 Using CPUID IBM,9175,705,ME1,3.8,002f

 - Fix return value for memory reads from and writes to in-kernel devices.
 
 - Add support for detecting preemption from within a guest.
 
 - Add KVM steal time test case to tools/selftests.
 
 ARM:
 
 - Add support for FEAT_IDST, allowing ID registers that are not

   exception.
 
 - Add sanitisation of the VTCR_EL2 register, fixing a number of

 - Full handling of RESx bits, instead of only RES0, and resulting in
   SCTLR_EL2 being added to the list of sanitised registers.

   guests.
 
 - Make sure that MTE being disabled on the pKVM host doesn't give it
   the ability to attack the hypervisor.
 
 - Allow pKVM's host stage-2 mappings to use the Force Write Back
   version of the memory attributes by using the "pass-through'

 - Fix trapping of ICC_DIR_EL1 on GICv5 hosts emulating GICv3 for the

 - Preliminary work for guest GICv5 support.
 
 - A bunch of debugfs fixes, removing pointless custom iterators stored
   in guest data structures.
 
 - A small set of FPSIMD cleanups.
 
 - Selftest fixes addressing the incorrect alignment of page
   allocation.
 
 - Other assorted low-impact fixes and spelling fixes.
 
 RISC-V:
 
 - Fixes for issues discoverd by KVM API fuzzing in
   kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_has_attr(), kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_rw_attr(),
   and kvm_riscv_vcpu_aia_imsic_update()
 
 - Allow Zalasr, Zilsd and Zclsd extensions for Guest/VM
 
 - Transparent huge page support for hypervisor page tables
 
 - Adjust the number of available guest irq files based on MMIO
   register sizes found in the device tree or the ACPI tables
 
 - Add RISC-V specific paging modes to KVM selftests
 
 - Detect paging mode at runtime for selftests
 
 s390:
 
 - Performance improvement for vSIE (aka nested virtualization)
 
 - Completely new memory management.  s390 was a special snowflake that enlisted
   help from the architecture's page table management to build hypervisor
   page tables, in particular enabling sharing the last level of page
   tables.  This however was a lot of code (~3K lines) in order to support
   KVM, and also blocked several features.  The biggest advantages is
   that the page size of userspace is completely independent of the
   page size used by the guest: userspace can mix normal pages, THPs and
   hugetlbfs as it sees fit, and in fact transparent hugepages were not
   possible before.  It's also now possible to have nested guests and
   guests with huge pages running on the same host.
 
 - Maintainership change for s390 vfio-pci
 
 - Small quality of life improvement for protected guests
 
 x86:
 
 - Add support for giving the guest full ownership of PMU hardware (contexted
   switched around the fastpath run loop) and allowing direct access to data
   MSRs and PMCs (restricted by the vPMU model).  KVM still intercepts
   access to control registers, e.g. to enforce event filtering and to
   prevent the guest from profiling sensitive host state.  This is more
   accurate, since it has no risk of contention and thus dropped events, and
   also has significantly less overhead.
 
   For more information, see the commit message for merge commit bf2c3138ae
   ("Merge tag 'kvm-x86-pmu-6.20' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEAD").
 
 - Disallow changing the virtual CPU model if L2 is active, for all the same
   reasons KVM disallows change the model after the first KVM_RUN.
 
 - Fix a bug where KVM would incorrectly reject host accesses to PV MSRs
   when running with KVM_CAP_ENFORCE_PV_FEATURE_CPUID enabled, even if those
   were advertised as supported to userspace,
 
 - Fix a bug with protected guest state (SEV-ES/SNP and TDX) VMs, where KVM
   would attempt to read CR3 configuring an async #PF entry.
 
 - Fail the build if EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL or EXPORT_SYMBOL is used in KVM (for x86
   only) to enforce usage of EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_KVM_INTERNAL.  Only a few exports
   that are intended for external usage, and those are allowed explicitly.
 
 - When checking nested events after a vCPU is unblocked, ignore -EBUSY instead
   of WARNing.  Userspace can sometimes put the vCPU into what should be an
   impossible state, and spurious exit to userspace on -EBUSY does not really
   do anything to solve the issue.
 
 - Also throw in the towel and drop the WARN on INIT/SIPI being blocked when vCPU
   is in Wait-For-SIPI, which also resulted in playing whack-a-mole with syzkaller
   stuffing architecturally impossible states into KVM.
 
 - Add support for new Intel instructions that don't require anything beyond
   enumerating feature flags to userspace.
 
 - Grab SRCU when reading PDPTRs in KVM_GET_SREGS2.
 
 - Add WARNs to guard against modifying KVM's CPU caps outside of the intended
   setup flow, as nested VMX in particular is sensitive to unexpected changes
   in KVM's golden configuration.
 
 - Add a quirk to allow userspace to opt-in to actually suppress EOI broadcasts
   when the suppression feature is enabled by the guest (currently limited to
   split IRQCHIP, i.e. userspace I/O APIC).  Sadly, simply fixing KVM to honor
   Suppress EOI Broadcasts isn't an option as some userspaces have come to rely
   on KVM's buggy behavior (KVM advertises Supress EOI Broadcast irrespective
   of whether or not userspace I/O APIC supports Directed EOIs).
 
 - Clean up KVM's handling of marking mapped vCPU pages dirty.
 
 - Drop a pile of *ancient* sanity checks hidden behind in KVM's unused
   ASSERT() macro, most of which could be trivially triggered by the guest
   and/or user, and all of which were useless.
 
 - Fold "struct dest_map" into its sole user, "struct rtc_status", to make it
   more obvious what the weird parameter is used for, and to allow fropping
   these RTC shenanigans if CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=n.
 
 - Bury all of ioapic.h, i8254.h and related ioctls (including
   KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP) behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y.
 
 - Add a regression test for recent APICv update fixes.
 
 - Handle "hardware APIC ISR", a.k.a. SVI, updates in kvm_apic_update_apicv()
   to consolidate the updates, and to co-locate SVI updates with the updates
   for KVM's own cache of ISR information.
 
 - Drop a dead function declaration.
 
 - Minor cleanups.
 
 x86 (Intel):
 
 - Rework KVM's handling of VMCS updates while L2 is active to temporarily
   switch to vmcs01 instead of deferring the update until the next nested
   VM-Exit.  The deferred updates approach directly contributed to several
   bugs, was proving to be a maintenance burden due to the difficulty in
   auditing the correctness of deferred updates, and was polluting
   "struct nested_vmx" with a growing pile of booleans.
 
 - Fix an SGX bug where KVM would incorrectly try to handle EPCM page faults,
   and instead always reflect them into the guest.  Since KVM doesn't shadow
   EPCM entries, EPCM violations cannot be due to KVM interference and
   can't be resolved by KVM.
 
 - Fix a bug where KVM would register its posted interrupt wakeup handler even
   if loading kvm-intel.ko ultimately failed.
 
 - Disallow access to vmcb12 fields that aren't fully supported, mostly to
   avoid weirdness and complexity for FRED and other features, where KVM wants
   enable VMCS shadowing for fields that conditionally exist.
 
 - Print out the "bad" offsets and values if kvm-intel.ko refuses to load (or
   refuses to online a CPU) due to a VMCS config mismatch.
 
 x86 (AMD):
 
 - Drop a user-triggerable WARN on nested_svm_load_cr3() failure.
 
 - Add support for virtualizing ERAPS.  Note, correct virtualization of ERAPS
   relies on an upcoming, publicly announced change in the APM to reduce the
   set of conditions where hardware (i.e. KVM) *must* flush the RAP.
 
 - Ignore nSVM intercepts for instructions that are not supported according to
   L1's virtual CPU model.
 
 - Add support for expedited writes to the fast MMIO bus, a la VMX's fastpath
   for EPT Misconfig.
 
 - Don't set GIF when clearing EFER.SVME, as GIF exists independently of SVM,
   and allow userspace to restore nested state with GIF=0.
 
 - Treat exit_code as an unsigned 64-bit value through all of KVM.
 
 - Add support for fetching SNP certificates from userspace.
 
 - Fix a bug where KVM would use vmcb02 instead of vmcb01 when emulating VMLOAD
   or VMSAVE on behalf of L2.
 
 - Misc fixes and cleanups.
 
 x86 selftests:
 
 - Add a regression test for TPR<=>CR8 synchronization and IRQ masking.
 
 - Overhaul selftest's MMU infrastructure to genericize stage-2 MMU support,
   and extend x86's infrastructure to support EPT and NPT (for L2 guests).
 
 - Extend several nested VMX tests to also cover nested SVM.
 
 - Add a selftest for nested VMLOAD/VMSAVE.
 
 - Rework the nested dirty log test, originally added as a regression test for
   PML where KVM logged L2 GPAs instead of L1 GPAs, to improve test coverage
   and to hopefully make the test easier to understand and maintain.
 
 guest_memfd:
 
 - Remove kvm_gmem_populate()'s preparation tracking and half-baked hugepage
   handling.  SEV/SNP was the only user of the tracking and it can do it via
   the RMP.
 
 - Retroactively document and enforce (for SNP) that KVM_SEV_SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE
   and KVM_TDX_INIT_MEM_REGION require the source page to be 4KiB aligned, to
   avoid non-trivial complexity for something that no known VMM seems to be
   doing and to avoid an API special case for in-place conversion, which
   simply can't support unaligned sources.
 
 - When populating guest_memfd memory, GUP the source page in common code and
   pass the refcounted page to the vendor callback, instead of letting vendor
   code do the heavy lifting.  Doing so avoids a looming deadlock bug with
   in-place due an AB-BA conflict betwee mmap_lock and guest_memfd's filemap
   invalidate lock.
 
 Generic:
 
 - Fix a bug where KVM would ignore the vCPU's selected address space when
   creating a vCPU-specific mapping of guest memory.  Actually this bug
   could not be hit even on x86, the only architecture with multiple
   address spaces, but it's a bug nevertheless.

Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "Loongarch:

   - Add more CPUCFG mask bits

   - Improve feature detection

   - Add lazy load support for FPU and binary translation (LBT) register
     state

   - Fix return value for memory reads from and writes to in-kernel
     devices

   - Add support for detecting preemption from within a guest

   - Add KVM steal time test case to tools/selftests

  ARM:

   - Add support for FEAT_IDST, allowing ID registers that are not
     implemented to be reported as a normal trap rather than as an UNDEF
     exception

   - Add sanitisation of the VTCR_EL2 register, fixing a number of
     UXN/PXN/XN bugs in the process

   - Full handling of RESx bits, instead of only RES0, and resulting in
     SCTLR_EL2 being added to the list of sanitised registers

   - More pKVM fixes for features that are not supposed to be exposed to
     guests

   - Make sure that MTE being disabled on the pKVM host doesn't give it
     the ability to attack the hypervisor

   - Allow pKVM's host stage-2 mappings to use the Force Write Back
     version of the memory attributes by using the "pass-through'
     encoding

   - Fix trapping of ICC_DIR_EL1 on GICv5 hosts emulating GICv3 for the
     guest

   - Preliminary work for guest GICv5 support

   - A bunch of debugfs fixes, removing pointless custom iterators
     stored in guest data structures

   - A small set of FPSIMD cleanups

   - Selftest fixes addressing the incorrect alignment of page
     allocation

   - Other assorted low-impact fixes and spelling fixes

  RISC-V:

   - Fixes for issues discoverd by KVM API fuzzing in
     kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_has_attr(), kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_rw_attr(), and
     kvm_riscv_vcpu_aia_imsic_update()

   - Allow Zalasr, Zilsd and Zclsd extensions for Guest/VM

   - Transparent huge page support for hypervisor page tables

   - Adjust the number of available guest irq files based on MMIO
     register sizes found in the device tree or the ACPI tables

   - Add RISC-V specific paging modes to KVM selftests

   - Detect paging mode at runtime for selftests

  s390:

   - Performance improvement for vSIE (aka nested virtualization)

   - Completely new memory management. s390 was a special snowflake that
     enlisted help from the architecture's page table management to
     build hypervisor page tables, in particular enabling sharing the
     last level of page tables. This however was a lot of code (~3K
     lines) in order to support KVM, and also blocked several features.
     The biggest advantages is that the page size of userspace is
     completely independent of the page size used by the guest:
     userspace can mix normal pages, THPs and hugetlbfs as it sees fit,
     and in fact transparent hugepages were not possible before. It's
     also now possible to have nested guests and guests with huge pages
     running on the same host

   - Maintainership change for s390 vfio-pci

   - Small quality of life improvement for protected guests

  x86:

   - Add support for giving the guest full ownership of PMU hardware
     (contexted switched around the fastpath run loop) and allowing
     direct access to data MSRs and PMCs (restricted by the vPMU model).

     KVM still intercepts access to control registers, e.g. to enforce
     event filtering and to prevent the guest from profiling sensitive
     host state. This is more accurate, since it has no risk of
     contention and thus dropped events, and also has significantly less
     overhead.

     For more information, see the commit message for merge commit
     bf2c3138ae ("Merge tag 'kvm-x86-pmu-6.20' ...")

   - Disallow changing the virtual CPU model if L2 is active, for all
     the same reasons KVM disallows change the model after the first
     KVM_RUN

   - Fix a bug where KVM would incorrectly reject host accesses to PV
     MSRs when running with KVM_CAP_ENFORCE_PV_FEATURE_CPUID enabled,
     even if those were advertised as supported to userspace,

   - Fix a bug with protected guest state (SEV-ES/SNP and TDX) VMs,
     where KVM would attempt to read CR3 configuring an async #PF entry

   - Fail the build if EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL or EXPORT_SYMBOL is used in KVM
     (for x86 only) to enforce usage of EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_KVM_INTERNAL.
     Only a few exports that are intended for external usage, and those
     are allowed explicitly

   - When checking nested events after a vCPU is unblocked, ignore
     -EBUSY instead of WARNing. Userspace can sometimes put the vCPU
     into what should be an impossible state, and spurious exit to
     userspace on -EBUSY does not really do anything to solve the issue

   - Also throw in the towel and drop the WARN on INIT/SIPI being
     blocked when vCPU is in Wait-For-SIPI, which also resulted in
     playing whack-a-mole with syzkaller stuffing architecturally
     impossible states into KVM

   - Add support for new Intel instructions that don't require anything
     beyond enumerating feature flags to userspace

   - Grab SRCU when reading PDPTRs in KVM_GET_SREGS2

   - Add WARNs to guard against modifying KVM's CPU caps outside of the
     intended setup flow, as nested VMX in particular is sensitive to
     unexpected changes in KVM's golden configuration

   - Add a quirk to allow userspace to opt-in to actually suppress EOI
     broadcasts when the suppression feature is enabled by the guest
     (currently limited to split IRQCHIP, i.e. userspace I/O APIC).
     Sadly, simply fixing KVM to honor Suppress EOI Broadcasts isn't an
     option as some userspaces have come to rely on KVM's buggy behavior
     (KVM advertises Supress EOI Broadcast irrespective of whether or
     not userspace I/O APIC supports Directed EOIs)

   - Clean up KVM's handling of marking mapped vCPU pages dirty

   - Drop a pile of *ancient* sanity checks hidden behind in KVM's
     unused ASSERT() macro, most of which could be trivially triggered
     by the guest and/or user, and all of which were useless

   - Fold "struct dest_map" into its sole user, "struct rtc_status", to
     make it more obvious what the weird parameter is used for, and to
     allow fropping these RTC shenanigans if CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=n

   - Bury all of ioapic.h, i8254.h and related ioctls (including
     KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP) behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y

   - Add a regression test for recent APICv update fixes

   - Handle "hardware APIC ISR", a.k.a. SVI, updates in
     kvm_apic_update_apicv() to consolidate the updates, and to
     co-locate SVI updates with the updates for KVM's own cache of ISR
     information

   - Drop a dead function declaration

   - Minor cleanups

  x86 (Intel):

   - Rework KVM's handling of VMCS updates while L2 is active to
     temporarily switch to vmcs01 instead of deferring the update until
     the next nested VM-Exit.

     The deferred updates approach directly contributed to several bugs,
     was proving to be a maintenance burden due to the difficulty in
     auditing the correctness of deferred updates, and was polluting
     "struct nested_vmx" with a growing pile of booleans

   - Fix an SGX bug where KVM would incorrectly try to handle EPCM page
     faults, and instead always reflect them into the guest. Since KVM
     doesn't shadow EPCM entries, EPCM violations cannot be due to KVM
     interference and can't be resolved by KVM

   - Fix a bug where KVM would register its posted interrupt wakeup
     handler even if loading kvm-intel.ko ultimately failed

   - Disallow access to vmcb12 fields that aren't fully supported,
     mostly to avoid weirdness and complexity for FRED and other
     features, where KVM wants enable VMCS shadowing for fields that
     conditionally exist

   - Print out the "bad" offsets and values if kvm-intel.ko refuses to
     load (or refuses to online a CPU) due to a VMCS config mismatch

  x86 (AMD):

   - Drop a user-triggerable WARN on nested_svm_load_cr3() failure

   - Add support for virtualizing ERAPS. Note, correct virtualization of
     ERAPS relies on an upcoming, publicly announced change in the APM
     to reduce the set of conditions where hardware (i.e. KVM) *must*
     flush the RAP

   - Ignore nSVM intercepts for instructions that are not supported
     according to L1's virtual CPU model

   - Add support for expedited writes to the fast MMIO bus, a la VMX's
     fastpath for EPT Misconfig

   - Don't set GIF when clearing EFER.SVME, as GIF exists independently
     of SVM, and allow userspace to restore nested state with GIF=0

   - Treat exit_code as an unsigned 64-bit value through all of KVM

   - Add support for fetching SNP certificates from userspace

   - Fix a bug where KVM would use vmcb02 instead of vmcb01 when
     emulating VMLOAD or VMSAVE on behalf of L2

   - Misc fixes and cleanups

  x86 selftests:

   - Add a regression test for TPR<=>CR8 synchronization and IRQ masking

   - Overhaul selftest's MMU infrastructure to genericize stage-2 MMU
     support, and extend x86's infrastructure to support EPT and NPT
     (for L2 guests)

   - Extend several nested VMX tests to also cover nested SVM

   - Add a selftest for nested VMLOAD/VMSAVE

     test for PML where KVM logged L2 GPAs instead of L1 GPAs, to
     improve test coverage and to hopefully make the test easier to
     understand and maintain

   - Remove kvm_gmem_populate()'s preparation tracking and half-baked
     hugepage handling. SEV/SNP was the only user of the tracking and it
     can do it via the RMP

   - Retroactively document and enforce (for SNP) that

9eb1760f84 perf build: Allow passing extra Clang flags via EXTRA_BPF_FLAGS
Add support for EXTRA_BPF_FLAGS in the eBPF skeleton build, allowing
users to pass additional clang options such as --sysroot or custom
include paths when cross-compiling perf.

This is primarily intended for cross-build scenarios where the default
host include paths do not match the target kernel version.

Example usage:

    make perf ARCH="arm64" EXTRA_BPF_FLAGS="--sysroot=..."

KVM mediated PMU support for 6.20

Add support for mediated PMUs, where KVM gives the guest full ownership of PMU
hardware (contexted switched around the fastpath run loop) and allows direct
access to data MSRs and PMCs (restricted by the vPMU model), but intercepts
access to control registers, e.g. to enforce event filtering and to prevent the
guest from profiling sensitive host state.

To keep overall complexity reasonable, mediated PMU usage is all or nothing
for a given instance of KVM (controlled via module param).  The Mediated PMU
is disabled default, partly to maintain backwards compatilibity for existing
setup, partly because there are tradeoffs when running with a mediated PMU that
may be non-starters for some use cases, e.g. the host loses the ability to
profile guests with mediated PMUs, the fastpath run loop is also a blind spot,
entry/exit transitions are more expensive, etc.

Versus the emulated PMU, where KVM is "just another perf user", the mediated
PMU delivers more accurate profiling and monitoring (no risk of contention and
thus dropped events), with significantly less overhead (fewer exits and faster
emulation/programming of event selectors) E.g. when running Specint-2017 on
a single-socket Sapphire Rapids with 56 cores and no-SMT, and using perf from
within the guest:

  Perf command:
  a. basic-sampling: perf record -F 1000 -e 6-instructions  -a --overwrite
  b. multiplex-sampling: perf record -F 1000 -e 10-instructions -a --overwrite

  Guest performance overhead:
  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  | Test case          | emulated vPMU | all passthrough | passthrough with |
  |                    |               |                 | event filters    |
  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  | basic-sampling     |   33.62%      |    4.24%        |   6.21%          |

4d84667627 Performance events changes for v7.0:
x86 PMU driver updates:
 
  - Add support for the core PMU for Intel Diamond Rapids (DMR) CPUs.
    Compared to previous iterations of the Intel PMU code, there's
    been a lot of changes, which center around three main areas:
 
     - Introduce the OFF-MODULE RESPONSE (OMR) facility to
       replace the Off-Core Response (OCR) facility
 
     - New PEBS data source encoding layout
 
     - Support the new "RDPMC user disable" feature
 
    (Dapeng Mi)
 
  - Likewise, a large series adds uncore PMU support for
    Intel Diamond Rapids (DMR) CPUs, which center around these
    four main areas:
 
     - DMR may have two Integrated I/O and Memory Hub (IMH) dies,
       separate from the compute tile (CBB) dies.  Each CBB and
       each IMH die has its own discovery domain.
 
     - Unlike prior CPUs that retrieve the global discovery table
       portal exclusively via PCI or MSR, DMR uses PCI for IMH PMON
       discovery and MSR for CBB PMON discovery.
 
     - DMR introduces several new PMON types: SCA, HAMVF, D2D_ULA,
       UBR, PCIE4, CRS, CPC, ITC, OTC, CMS, and PCIE6.
 
     - IIO free-running counters in DMR are MMIO-based, unlike SPR.
 
    (Zide Chen)
 
  - Also add support for Add missing PMON units for Intel Panther Lake,
    and support Nova Lake (NVL), which largely maps to Panther Lake.
    (Zide Chen)
 
  - KVM integration: Add support for mediated vPMUs (by Kan Liang
    and Sean Christopherson, with fixes and cleanups by Peter Zijlstra,
    Sandipan Das and Mingwei Zhang)
 
  - Add Intel cstate driver to support for Wildcat Lake (WCL)
    CPUs, which are a low-power variant of Panther Lake.
    (Zide Chen)
 
  - Add core, cstate and MSR PMU support for the Airmont NP Intel CPU
    (aka MaxLinear Lightning Mountain), which maps to the existing
    Airmont code. (Martin Schiller)
 
 Performance enhancements:
 
  - core: Speed up kexec shutdown by avoiding unnecessary
    cross CPU calls. (Jan H. Schönherr)
 
  - core: Fix slow perf_event_task_exit() with LBR callstacks
    (Namhyung Kim)
 
 User-space stack unwinding support:
 
  - Various cleanups and refactorings in preparation to generalize
    the unwinding code for other architectures. (Jens Remus)
 
 Uprobes updates:
 
  - Transition from kmap_atomic to kmap_local_page (Keke Ming)
 
  - Fix incorrect lockdep condition in filter_chain() (Breno Leitao)
 
  - Fix XOL allocation failure for 32-bit tasks (Oleg Nesterov)
 
 Misc fixes and cleanups:

  - x86/intel/uncore: Convert comma to semicolon (Chen Ni)
 
  - x86/uncore: Clean up const mismatch (Greg Kroah-Hartman)

Add flag that disables affinity behavior.

Using sched_setaffinity() to place a perf thread on a CPU can avoid
certain interprocessor interrupts but may introduce a delay due to the
scheduling, particularly on loaded machines.

Add a command line option to disable the behavior.

This behavior is less present in other tools like `perf record`, as it
uses a ring buffer and doesn't make repeated system calls.

d484361550 perf evlist: Reduce affinity use and move into iterator, fix no affinity
The evlist__for_each_cpu iterator will call sched_setaffitinity when
moving between CPUs to avoid IPIs.

If only 1 IPI is saved then this may be unprofitable as the delay to get
scheduled may be considerable.

This may be particularly true if reading an event group in `perf stat`
in interval mode.

Move the affinity handling completely into the iterator so that a single
evlist__use_affinity can determine whether CPU affinities will be used.

For `perf record` the change is minimal as the dummy event and the real
event will always make the use of affinities the thing to do.

In `perf stat`, tool events are ignored and affinities only used if >1
event on the same CPU occur.

Determining if affinities are useful is done by evlist__use_affinity
which tests per-event whether the event's PMU benefits from affinity use
- it is assumed only perf event using PMUs do.

Fix a bug where when there are no affinities that the CPU map iterator
may reference a CPU not present in the initial evsel. Fix by making the
iterator and non-iterator code common.

ff8548172f perf evlist: Special map propagation for tool events that read on 1 CPU
Tool events like duration_time don't need a perf_cpu_map that contains
all online CPUs.

Having such a perf_cpu_map causes overheads when iterating between
events for CPU affinity.

During parsing mark events that just read on a single CPU map index as
such, then during map propagation set up the evsel's CPUs and thereby
the evlists accordingly.

The setting cannot be done early in parsing as user CPUs are only fully
known when evlist__create_maps is called.

bc105a8918 Revert "perf tool_pmu: More accurately set the cpus for tool events"
This reverts commit d8d8a0b360.

The setting of a user CPU map can cause an empty intersection when
combined with CPU 0 and the event removed. This later triggers a segv in
the stat-shadow logic. Let's put back a full online CPU map for now by
reverting this patch.

3d012b8614 perf test: Fix test case perftool-testsuite_report for s390
Test case perftool-testsuite_report fails on s390 for some time
now.

Root cause is a time out which is too tight for large s390 machines.
The time out value addr2line_timeout_ms is per default set to 1 second.

This is the maximum time the function read_addr2line_record() waits for
a reply from the forked off tool addr2line, which is started as a child
in interactive mode.

It reads stdin (an address in hexadecimal) and replies on stdout with
function name, file name and line number. This might take more than one
second.

However one second is not always enough and the reply from addr2line
tool is not received. Function read_addr2line_record() fails and emits
a warning, which is not expected by the test case. It fails.

Output before:

2e05bb52a1 perf test workload: Add code_with_type test workload
The purpose of the workload is to gather samples of rust runtime. To
achieve that it has a dummy rust library linked with it.

Per recommendations for such scenarios [1], the rust library is
statically linked.

An example:

$ perf record perf test -w code_with_type
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.160 MB perf.data (4074 samples) ]

$ perf report --stdio --dso perf -s srcfile,srcline
    45.16%  ub_checks.rs       ub_checks.rs:72
     6.72%  code_with_type.rs  code_with_type.rs:15
     6.64%  range.rs           range.rs:767
     4.26%  code_with_type.rs  code_with_type.rs:21
     4.23%  range.rs           range.rs:0
     3.99%  code_with_type.rs  code_with_type.rs:16

ff9aeb6bd1 perf test parse-metric: Ensure aggregate counts appear to have run
Commit bb5a920b90 ("perf stat: Ensure metrics are displayed even
with failed events") with failed events") made it so that counters which
weren't enabled in the kernel were handled as NaN in metrics.

This caused the "Parse and process metrics" test to start failing as it
wasn't putting a non-zero value in these variables.

Add arbitrary values of 1 to fix the test.

36a1b0061a perf build: Reduce pmu-events related copying and mkdirs
When building to an output directory the previous code would remove
files and then copy the source files over.

Each source file copy would have a rule to make its directory. All JSON
for every architecture was considered a source file.

This led to unnecessary copying as a file would be deleted and then the
same file copied again, unnecessary directory making, and copying of
files not used in the build.

A side-effect would be a lot of build messages.

This change makes it so that all computed output files are created and
then compared to all files in the OUTPUT directory.

By filtering out the files that would be copied, unnecessary files can
be determined and then deleted - note, this is a phony target which
would remake the pmu-events.c if always depended upon, and so the
dependency is conditional on there being files to remove.

This has some overhead as the $(OUTPUT)/pmu-events is "find" over rather
than just "rm -fr", but the savings from unnecessary copying, etc.
should make up for this new make overhead.

The copy target just does copying but has a dependency on the directory
it needs being built, avoiding repetitive mkdirs.

The source files for copying only consider the JEVENTS_ARCH unless the
JEVENTS_ARCH is all.

The metric JSON is only generated if appropriate, rather than always
being generated and jevents.py deciding whether or not to use the files.

The mypy and pylint targets are fixed as variable names had changed but
the rules not updated.

The line count of a build with "make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/perf clean all"
prior to this change was 2181 lines, after this change it is 1596
lines.

This is a reduction of 585 lines or about 27%.

The generated pmu-events.c for JEVENTS_ARCH "x86" and "all" were
validated as being identical after this change.

Committer notes:

This addresses a TODO and improves the situation where record and
report/c2c are performed on the same machine or in machines with the
same cacheline size, but the proper way is to store the cacheline size
in the perf.data header at 'record' time and then use it at post

c73a56ed3c perf test: Fix test case Leader sampling on s390
The subtest 'Leader sampling' some time fails on s390.
- for z/VM guest: Disable the test for z/VM guest. There is no
  CPU Measurement facility to run the test successfully.
- for LPAR: Use correct event names.

A detailed analysis follows here:
Now to the debugging and investigation:
1. With command
       perf record -e '{cycles,cycles}:S' -- ....
   the first cycles event starts sampling.
   On s390 this sets up sampling with a frequency of 4000 Hz.
   This translates to hardware sample rate of 1377000 instructions per
   micro-second to meet a frequency of 4000 HZ.

2. With first event cycles now sampling into a hardware buffer, an
   interrupt is triggered each time a sampling buffer gets full.
   The interrupt handler is then invoked and debug output shows the
   processing of samples.  The size of one hardware sample is 32 bytes.
   With an interrupt triggered when the hardware buffer page of 4KB
   gets full, the interrupt handler processes 128 samples.
   (This is taken from s390 specific fast debug data gathering)

3. The value is constantly increasing by the number of instructions
   executed to generate a sample entry.  This is the first line of the
   pairs of lines. count 0x1502e8 --> 1377000

   # perf script | grep 1377000 | wc -l
   214
   # perf script | wc -l
   428
   #
   That is 428 lines in total, and half of the lines contain value
   1377000.

4. The second event cycles is opened against the counting PMU, which
   is an independent PMU and is not interrupt driven.  Once enabled it
   runs in the background and keeps running, incrementing silently
   about 400+ counters. The counter values are read via assembly
   instructions.

   This second counter PMU's read call back function is called when the
   interrupt handler of the sampling facility processes each sample. The
   function call sequence is:

   perf_event_overflow()
   +--> __perf_event_overflow()
        +--> __perf_event_output()
               +--> perf_output_sample()
                    +--> perf_output_read()
                         +--> perf_output_read_group()
	                          for_each_sibling_event(sub, leader) {
		values[n++] = perf_event_count(sub, self);
		printk("%s sub %p values %#lx\n", __func__, sub, values[n-1]);
			          }

   The last function perf_event_count() is invoked on the second event
   cylces *on* the counting PMU. An added printk statement shows the
   following lines in the dmesg output:

   # dmesg|grep perf_output_read_group |head -10
   [  332.368620] perf_output_read_group sub 00000000d80b7c1f values 0x3a80917 (1)

Summary:
- Above command starts the CPU sampling facility, with runs interrupt
  driven when a 4KB page is full. An interrupt processes the 128 samples
  and calls eventually perf_output_read_group() for each sample to save it
  in the event's ring buffer.

- At that time the CPU counting facility is invoked to read the value of
  the event cycles. This value is saved as the second value in the
  sample_read structure.

- The first and odd lines in the perf script output displays the period
  value between 2 samples being created by hardware. It is the number
  of instructions executes before the hardware writes a sample.

- The second and even lines in the perf script output displays the number
  of CPU cycles needed to process each sample and save it in the event's
  ring buffer.
These 2 different values can never be identical on s390.

Since event leader sampling is not possible on s390 the perf tool will
return EOPNOTSUPP soon. Perpare the test case for that.

bb5a920b90 perf stat: Ensure metrics are displayed even with failed events
Currently, `perf stat` skips or hides metrics when the underlying
hardware events cannot be counted (e.g., due to insufficient permissions
or unsupported events).

In `--metric-only` mode, this often results in missing columns or blank
spaces, making the output difficult to parse.

Modify the logic to ensure metrics are consistently displayed by
propagating NAN (Not a Number) through the expression evaluator.
Specifically:

1. Update `prepare_metric()` in stat-shadow.c to treat uncounted events
   (where `run == 0`) as NAN. This leverages the existing math in expr.y
   to propagate NAN through metric expressions.

2. Remove the early return in the display logic's `printout()` function
   that was previously skipping metrics in `--metric-only` mode for
   failed events.
l
3. Simplify `perf_stat__skip_metric_event()` to no longer depend on
   event runtime.

Tested:

1. `perf all metrics test` did not crash while paranoid is 2.

2. Multiple combinations with `CPUs_utilized` while paranoid is 2.

  $ ./perf stat -M CPUs_utilized -a -- sleep 1

04f81f45b4 perf callchain lbr: Make the leaf IP that of the sample
The current IP of a leaf function when reported from a perf record with
"--call-graph lbr" is the "to" field of the LBR branch stack record.

The sample for the event being recorded may be further into the function
and there may be inlining information associated with it.

Rather than use the branch stack "to" field in this case switch to the
callchain appending the sample->ip and thereby allowing the inline
information to show.

Before this change:
```
$ perf record --call-graph lbr perf test -w inlineloop
...
$ perf script --fields +srcline
...
perf-inlineloop  467586  4649.344493:     950905 cpu_core/cycles/P:

a724a8fce5 perf kvm stat: Fix build error
Since commit ceea279f93 ("perf kvm stat: Remove use of the arch

    7 | #include <asm/svm.h>

  compilation terminated.

The build fails to find x86's asm headers when building for Arm64.  Fix
this by including asm headers with relative path instead.

e5e66adfe4 perf regs: Remove __weak attributive arch_sdt_arg_parse_op() function
In line with the previous patch, the __weak arch_sdt_arg_parse_op()
function is removed.

Architectural-specific implementations in the arch/ directory are now
converted into sub-functions within the util/perf-regs-arch/ directory.

The perf_sdt_arg_parse_op() function will call these sub-functions based
on the EM_HOST.

This change enables cross-architecture calls to arch_sdt_arg_parse_op().

No functional changes are intended.

16dccbb842 perf regs: Remove __weak attributive arch__xxx_reg_mask() functions
Currently, some architecture-specific perf-regs functions, such as
arch__intr_reg_mask() and arch__user_reg_mask(), are defined with the
__weak attribute.

This approach ensures that only functions matching the architecture of
the build/run host are compiled and executed, reducing build time and
binary size.

However, this __weak attribute restricts these functions to be called
only on the same architecture, preventing cross-architecture
functionality.

For example, a perf.data file captured on x86 cannot be parsed on an ARM
platform.

To address this limitation, this patch removes the __weak attribute from
these perf-regs functions.

The architecture-specific code is moved from the arch/ directory to the
util/perf-regs-arch/ directory.

The appropriate architectural functions are then called based on the
EM_HOST.

No functional changes are intended.

e716e69cf6 perf arch: Update arch headers to use relative UAPI paths
The architectural specific headers perf_regs.h currently rely on the
host architecture's 'asm/perf_regs.h'.

This can lead to compilation inconsistencies or failures when including
and building perf for a target architecture that differs from the host's
architecture.

Explicitly point to the UAPI headers within the tools source tree using
relative paths.

This ensures that perf is always built against the intended
architecture.

c2e28ae294 perf regs: Fix abort for "-I" or "--user-regs" options
Fix an issue where the `perf` tool aborts unexpectedly when running the
following command:

```
perf record -e cycles -I -- true

 Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
    or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

    -I, --intr-regs[=<any register>]
    sample selected machine registers on interrupt, use '-I?' to list register names
```

The usage of the `-I` or `--user-regs` options without specifying any
registers should default to sampling all general-purpose registers.

However, this currently causes an abnormal termination.

The issue was introduced by commit 3d06db9bad ("perf regs: Refactor
 use of arch__sample_reg_masks() to perf_reg_name()").

This patch resolves the problem, ensuring that the `-I` or `--user-regs`
options work as intended without causing an abort.

c4f4392264 perf header: Add e_machine/e_flags to the header
Add 64-bits of feature data to record the ELF machine and flags.

This allows readers to initialize based on the data.

For example, `perf kvm stat` wants to initialize based on the kind of
data to be read, but at initialization time there are no threads to base
this data upon and using the host means cross platform support won't
work.

The values in the perf_env also act as a cache for these within the
session.

43af548436 perf kvm: Wire up e_machine
Pass the e_machine to the kvm functions so that they aren't just wired
to EM_HOST.

In the case of a session move some setup until the session
is created.

As the session isn't fully running the default EM_HOST is returned as no
e_machine can be found in a running machine.

This is, however, some marginal progress to cross platform support.

ceea279f93 perf kvm stat: Remove use of the arch directory
`perf kvm stat` supports record and report options.

By using the arch directory a report for a different machine type cannot
be supported.

Move the kvm-stat code out of the arch directory and into
util/kvm-stat-arch following the pattern of perf-regs and dwarf-regs.

Avoid duplicate symbols by renaming functions to have the architecture
name within them.

For global variables, wrap them in an architecture specific function.
Selecting the architecture to use with `perf kvm stat` is selected by
EM_HOST, ie no different than before the change.

Later the ELF machine can be determined from the session or a header
feature (ie EM_HOST at the time of the record).

The build and #define HAVE_KVM_STAT_SUPPORT is now redundant so remove
across Makefiles and in the build.

Opportunistically constify architectural structs and arrays.

b5c9bcde61 perf capstone: Support for dlopen-ing libcapstone.so
If perf is built with LIBCAPSTONE_DLOPEN=1, support dlopen-ing
libcapstone.so and then calling the necessary functions by looking them
up using dlsym.

The types come from capstone.h which means the libcapstone feature check
needs to pass, and NO_CAPSTONE=1 hasn't been defined. This will cause
the definition of HAVE_LIBCAPSTONE_SUPPORT.

Earlier versions of this code tried to declare the necessary
capstone.h constants and structs, but they weren't stable and caused
breakages across libcapstone releases.

6bd6c5ef6c perf jevents: Add load event JSON to verify and allow fallbacks
Add a LoadEvents function that loads all event JSON files in a
directory.

In the Event constructor ensure all events are defined in the event JSON
except for legacy events like "cycles".

If the initial event isn't found then legacy_event1 is used, and if that
isn't found legacy_event2 is used.

This allows a single Event to have multiple event names as models will
often rename the same event over time. If the event doesn't exist an
exception is raised.

So that references to metrics can be added, add the MetricRef
class. This doesn't validate as an event name and so provides an
escape hatch for metrics to refer to each other.

297c9d96e3 perf jevents: Handle deleted JSONS in out of source builds
Make the source folders a dependency for the generated folder root so
that whenever a file is deleted from the source it will force a new
fresh copy of all the JSON files and avoid stale deleted files.

JSON_DIRS_OUTPUT_ROOT needs to be a dependency of LEGACY_CACHE_JSON so
that the root folder doesn't get cleaned after the legacy JSON is
generated. But this is a no-op with in-source builds as
JSON_DIRS_OUTPUT_ROOT is unset.

JSON_DIRS is added as a dependency of PMU_EVENTS_C which also forces a
re-build for in source builds when JSON files are deleted. This could
have also resulted in stale builds, but never a broken one.

612e4022c6 perf strlist: Remove dont_dupstr logic, used only once
Ian Rogers noticed that 678ed6b707 ("perf strlist: Don't write to
const memory") breaks the 'Remove thread map' 'perf test' entry, because
it keeps pointers to the temporary string introduced to avoid touching
the const memory.

This is because the thread_map__new_by_[pt]id_str() were the only
methods using the slist->dont_dupstr knob to keep pointers to the
original const string list, as it uses strtol to parse numbers and it
stops at the comma.

As this is the only case of dont_dupstr use, dupstr being the default,
and it gets in the way of getting rid of the last const-correctness,
remove this knob, with it:

  $ perf test 37
  37: Remove thread map   : Ok

traversing through the RB-Tree.

These are visible when using high verbosity (-vvvv) in KVM environments,
during perf report dumps.

Testing:

- Test 1: Record the local machine and guest VM using 'perf kvm record' and
generate the report using 'perf kvm report -vvvv -D'. The dump should show
the threads and other details related to local and guest machine.
    - 1 Ubuntu VM running on Fedora host
    - VM is running a noisy program =>
	$ dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/null
    - On host run =>
	$ sudo ./perf kvm --guestvmlinux=/tmp/shared/guest_vmlinux \
                        --guestkallsyms=/tmp/shared/guest_kallsyms \
                        --guestmodules=/tmp/shared/guest_modules \
                        record -a -g -o perf.data.guest
      and exit after a few seconds.
      [ perf record: Woken up 9 times to write data ]
      [ perf record: Captured and wrote 3.150 MB perf.data.guest \
	(29311 samples) ]
    - Generate dump =>
	$ sudo ./perf kvm --guestkallsyms /tmp/shared/guest_kallsyms \
                        report -vvvv -D -i perf.data.guest > output.txt
    - Check for threads associated with guest machine.
      $ grep "Thread 0" output.txt
      Thread 0 swapper
      Thread 0 [guest/0]
    PASS

- Test 2: Record the local machine and guest VM using 'perf kvm record' and
generate the report using 'perf kvm report'. The functions running on
guest VM should be seen in the report.
    - Same setup as Test 1 but the test looks at the performance profile,
      to check if the function names are visible.
    - Peek into profile using =>
	$ sudo ./perf kvm  --guestkallsyms /tmp/shared/guest_kallsyms \
                                    report -i perf.data.guest

- Test 3: Record the local and 2 guest VMs using 'perf kvm record' and
generate the report using 'perf kvm report -vvvv -D'. The dump should show
the threads and other details related to local and guest machines.
    - 1 Ubuntu and 1 Alpine VMs running on Fedora host.
    - Find PIDs of qemu instances and use them during record and report
	$ pgrep qemu
        5816
        25098
    - Record the activity =>
	$ sudo ./perf kvm record -p 5816,25098 -a -g -o perf.data.guests
        Warning:
        PID/TID switch overriding SYSTEM

        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 3.692 MB perf.data.guests \
	  (57389 samples) ]
    - Generate dump =>
	$ sudo ./perf kvm report -vvvv -D -i perf.data.guests > output.txt
    - Check if the threads related to the local machine and guest VMs
      are present =>
	$ grep "Thread 0" output.txt
        Thread 0 swapper
        Thread 0 [guest/0]
      NOTE: Threads from Ubuntu and Alpine VMs are bundled together and
      appear as one guest machine.
      Looking into output.txt =>
	Threads: 6
	Thread 0 [guest/0]
	Thread 5816 :5816
	Thread 25098 :25098
	Thread 5819 :5819
	Thread 5820 :5820
	Thread 25103 :25103
      To conclude, information is collected for both VMs and not listed
      as two different guest machines.
    PASS

- Test 4: Check if any guest-related information is printed in
perf annotate. This test is included because the command calls
perf_session__fprintf() in its code path when using -vvvv option.
This could be explained by inability / lack of options for 'perf annotate'
to look into guest VM from host machine, due to no option to specify the
guest's kallsyms or modules. A similar explanation for 'perf mem' could
be used, as perf_session__fprintf() is also present in its code path.
    - Run annotate =>
	$ sudo ./perf annotate -i perf.data.guest -vvvv  > output.txt
    - Check for threads from local machine or guest VM =>
	$ grep "Thread 0" output.txt
        Thread 0 swapper

        Threads from local machine are found while threads from guest VM
	are not found. It is possibly because of a lack of a guest kallsyms
	option for DSO matching in perf annotate.
    PASS

- Test 5: Run kvm test available on perf path
    - $ sudo ./perf test kvm
        89: perf kvm tests                                            : Ok

3d06db9bad perf regs: Refactor use of arch__sample_reg_masks() to perf_reg_name()
arch__sample_reg_masks isn't supported on ARM(32), csky, loongarch,
MIPS, RISC-V and s390.

The table returned by the function just has the name of a register
paired with the corresponding sample_regs_user mask value.

For a given perf register we can compute the name with perf_reg_name and
the mask is just 1 left-shifted by the perf register number.

Change __parse_regs to use this method for finding registers rather than
arch__sample_reg_masks, thereby adding __parse_regs support for ARM(32),
csky, loongarch, MIPS, RISC-V and s390.

As arch__sample_reg_masks is then unused, remove the now unneeded
declarations.

0e26ba5a87 perf disasm: Refactor arch__find and initialization of arch structs
Switch arch__find to using an ELF machine number rather than a
string.

Rather than an array of fixed size arch structs turn the init functions
into new functions indexed by the ELF machine they correspond to.

This allows data to be stored with a struct arch with the container_of
trick, so the priv variable can be removed.

Switch to using the thread to find the arch rather than the evsel as the
evsel only has limited notions of the running thread upon which
disassembly is performed.

Factor out the e_machine and e_flags into their own struct to make them
easier to pass around.

c4e3a00356 perf map_symbol: Switch from holding maps to holding thread

As the maps can be gained from the thread switch from holding maps in
struct map_symbol to holding the thread.

Holding the maps in addr_location is also redundant, switch this to

kallsyms: Get rid of kallsyms relative base
When the kallsyms relative base was introduced, per-CPU variable
references on x86_64 SMP were implemented as offsets into the respective
per-CPU region, rather than offsets relative to the location of the
variable's template in the kernel image, which is how other
architectures implement it.

This required kallsyms to reason about the difference between the two,
and the sign of the value in the kallsyms_offsets[] array was used to
distinguish them. This meant that negative offsets were not permitted
for ordinary variables, and so it was crucial that the relative base was
chosen such that all offsets were positive numbers.

This is no longer needed: instead, the offsets can simply be encoded as
values in the range -/+ 2 GiB, which is precisely what PC32 relocations
provide on most architectures. So it is possible to simplify the logic,
and just use _text as the anchor directly, and let the linker calculate
the final value based on the location of the entry itself.

Some architectures (nios2, extensa) do not support place-relative
relocations at all, but these are all 32-bit and non-relocatable, and so
there is no need for place-relative relocations in the first place, and
the actual symbol values can just be stored directly.

This makes all entries in the kallsyms_offsets[] array visible as
place-relative references in the ELF metadata, which will be important
when implementing ELF-based fg-kaslr.

5a357ae6ad perf sched stats: Add support for report subcommand
`perf sched stats record` captures two sets of samples. For workload
profile, first set right before workload starts and second set after
workload finishes. For the systemwide profile, first set at the
beginning of profile and second set on receiving SIGINT signal.

Add `perf sched stats report` subcommand that will read both the set
of samples, get the diff and render a final report. Final report prints
scheduler stat at cpu granularity as well as sched domain granularity.

Example usage:

  # ./perf sched stats record -- true
  [ perf sched stats: Wrote samples to perf.data ]

  # perf sched stats report

805da27252 perf sched stats: Add schedstat v17 support
The /proc/schedstat file output is standardized with version number.

Add support to record and raw dump v17 version layout.

Version 17 of schedstats removed 'lb_imbalance' field as it has no
significance anymore and instead added more relevant fields namely
'lb_imbalance_load', 'lb_imbalance_util', 'lb_imbalance_task' and
'lb_imbalance_misfit'.

The domain field prints the name of the corresponding sched domain from
this version onwards.

The /proc/schedstat file output is standardized with version number.

Add support to record and raw dump v16 version layout.

Version 16 of schedstats changed the order of definitions within 'enum
cpu_idle_type', which changed the order of [CPU_MAX_IDLE_TYPES] columns
in show_schedstat().

In particular the position of CPU_IDLE and __CPU_NOT_IDLE changed
places.

c3030995f2 perf sched stats: Add record and rawdump support
Define new, perf tool only, sample types and their layouts. Add logic
to parse /proc/schedstat, convert it to perf sample format and save
samples to perf.data file with `perf sched stats record` command.

Also add logic to read perf.data file, interpret schedstat samples and
print rawdump of samples with `perf script -D`.

Note that, /proc/schedstat file output is standardized with version
number. The patch supports v15 but older or newer version can be added
easily.

d40c68a49f perf header: Support CPU DOMAIN relation info
The '/proc/schedstat' file gives info about load balancing statistics
within a given domain.

It also contains the cpu_mask giving information about the sibling cpus
and domain names after schedstat version 17.

Storing this information in perf header will help tools like `perf sched
stats` for better analysis.

29132d1696 perf list: Don't write to const memory
Something now detected on fedora 44, where strchr() returns const if it
is passed a const pointer:

  util/print-events.c: In function 'print_sdt_events':
  util/print-events.c:89:29: error: initialization discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Werror=discarded-qualifiers]
     89 |                 char *bid = strchr(sdt_name->s, '@');
        |                             ^~~~~~

Fix it by using strchrnul() + strncmp() instead of temporarily scrubbing
it with '\0'.

2c850606a4 perf trace: Deal with compiler const checks
The strchr() function these days return const/non-const based on the arg
it receives, and sometimes we need to use casts when we're dealing with
variables that are used in code that needs to safely change the returned
value and sometimes not (as it points to really const areas).

Tweak one such case.

a70493e2bb perf cs-etm: Fix decoding for sparse CPU maps
The ETM decoder incorrectly assumed that auxtrace queue indices were
equivalent to CPU number. This assumption is used for inserting records
into the queue, and for fetching queues when given a CPU number. This
assumption held when Perf always opened a dummy event on every CPU, even
if the user provided a subset of CPUs on the commandline, resulting in
the indices aligning.

For example:

  # event : name = cs_etm//u, , id = { 2451, 2452 }, type = 11 (cs_etm), size = 136, config = 0x4010, { sample_period, samp>
  # event : name = dummy:u, , id = { 2453, 2454, 2455, 2456 }, type = 1 (PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE), size = 136, config = 0x9 (PER>

  0 0 0x200 [0xd0]: PERF_RECORD_ID_INDEX nr: 6
  ... id: 2451  idx: 2  cpu: 2  tid: -1
  ... id: 2452  idx: 3  cpu: 3  tid: -1
  ... id: 2453  idx: 0  cpu: 0  tid: -1
  ... id: 2454  idx: 1  cpu: 1  tid: -1
  ... id: 2455  idx: 2  cpu: 2  tid: -1
  ... id: 2456  idx: 3  cpu: 3  tid: -1

Since commit 811082e4b6 ("perf parse-events: Support user CPUs mixed
with threads/processes") the dummy event no longer behaves in this way,
making the ETM event indices start from 0 on the first CPU recorded
regardless of its ID:

  # event : name = cs_etm//u, , id = { 771, 772 }, type = 11 (cs_etm), size = 144, config = 0x4010, { sample_period, sample>
  # event : name = dummy:u, , id = { 773, 774 }, type = 1 (PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE), size = 144, config = 0x9 (PERF_COUNT_SW_DUM>

  0 0 0x200 [0x90]: PERF_RECORD_ID_INDEX nr: 4
  ... id: 771  idx: 0  cpu: 2  tid: -1

  ... id: 773  idx: 0  cpu: 2  tid: -1
  ... id: 774  idx: 1  cpu: 3  tid: -1

This causes the following segfault when decoding:

  $ perf record -e cs_etm//u -C 2,3 -- true
  $ perf report

Fix it by inserting into the queues based on CPU number, rather than

9bb93278c3 perf tools: Always uniquify event names
evlist__uniquify_evsel_names() only gets called in __parse_events() if
verbose is > 0. This means that the auto added "slots" events stay as
"slots" rather than being expanded to "cpu_core/slots/" unless Perf is
run in verbose mode. This is invisible to users when running Perf stat
because evlist__print_counters() always calls it regardless of verbose
mode before displaying.

The only thing this seems to affect is the test "Parsing of all PMU
events from sysfs" which fails when not run in verbose mode.
test__checkevent_pmu_events() always expects event names to be prefixed
with the pmu name, but this only happens for "slots" events after
evlist__uniquify_evsel_names() is called.

One fix could be to relax the test to accept the non prefixed name in
normal mode. But seeing as Perf stat uniquifies unconditionally, make
parse_events() do the same.

This fixes the following test failure:

  $ perf test "Parsing of all PMU events from sysfs"
  5.2: Parsing of all PMU events from sysfs                    : FAILED!

92ea788d2a perf inject: Add --convert-callchain option
There are applications not built with frame pointers, so DWARF is needed
to get the stack traces.

`perf record --call-graph dwarf` saves the stack and register data for
each sample to get the stacktrace offline.  But sometimes this data may
have sensitive information and we don't want to keep them in the file.

This new 'perf inject --convert-callchain' option creates the callchains
and discards the stack and register after that.

This saves storage space and processing time for the new data file.

Of course, users should remove the original data file to not keep
sensitive data around.  :)

The down side is that it cannot handle inlined callchain entries as they
all have the same IPs.

Maybe we can add an option to 'perf report' to look up inlined functions
using DWARF - IIUC it doesn't require stack and register data.

This is an example.

  $ perf record --call-graph dwarf -- perf test -w noploop

  $ perf report --stdio --no-children --percent-limit=0 > output-prev

  $ perf inject -i perf.data --convert-callchain -o perf.data.out

  $ perf report --stdio --no-children --percent-limit=0 -i perf.data.out > output-next

  $ diff -u output-prev output-next

6b2658b3f3 perf unwind-libdw: Don't discard loaded ELF/DWARF after every unwind
The unwind-libdw dwfl has ELF binaries associated with mmap
addresses. Experimenting with using the per dso dwfl it is required to
alter the address to be 0 based variant. Unfortunately libdwfl doesn't
allow a single unwind and then an update to the return address to be 0
based as there are assertions that registers aren't updated once an
unwind has started, etc.

As removing the dwfl didn't prove possible, an alternative is to just
not discard the dwfl when the unwind ends. The dwfl is valid for a
process unless a dso is loaded at the same address as a previous
one. So keep the dwfl with the maps, invalidate it if a map is removed
(in case a new map replaces it) and recycle the dwfl in the unwinding
code. A wrinkly in the implementation of this is that the attached
thread argument is remembered by the dwfl and so it needs to be a
pointer to memory that also persists with the dwfl (struct
dwfl_ui_thread_info in the code).

Recording 10 seconds of system wide data with --call-graph=dwarf and
then processing with perf report shows a total runtime improvement
from 41.583s to 2.279s (an 18x speedup).

2e9191573a perf build: Remove NO_LIBDW_DWARF_UNWIND option
Libdw unwinding support is present for every architecture that has a
perf_regs.h - perf registers are needed for the initial frame to
unwind.

Elfutils also supports SPARC, ARC and m68k but there is no support in
the Linux kernel for perf registers on these architectures.

As the perf supported DWARF unwinding architectures are a subset of the
elfutils ones, remove NO_LIBDW_DWARF_UNWIND as there isn't a case of
elfutils lacking the support need for perf.

406b51a9a5 perf dwarf-regs: Add MIPS perf to DWARF register number mapping functions
Despite an unused function declaration, there was no unwind-libdw for
MIPS but there is a perf_regs.h and a libdw implementation.

Fill in the pieces so hopefully MIPS unwinding with libdw works.

Note, the link register was being coped to DWARF register 65 that the
SysV ABI spec claims is FPSCR. It is corrected here to 108, but this is
unlikely to matter as FPSCR has little to no impact on unwinding.

d3ab52c31e perf dwarf-regs: Add get_dwarf_regnum_for_perf_regnum() and use for x86 unwinding
Add a utility to map a perf register number to a DWARF register number
for a particular ELF machine type.

Create a generic unwind-libdw initial register initialization routine
that uses this function and thereby avoids arch specific
initialization. The unwind-libdw code does:

1) compute the maximum DWARF register from the set of sampled user registers,
2) allocates a set of DWARF registers,
3) copies the sample registers into the appropriate DWARF registers.

This generic solution is initially implemented for use with x86 as
only get_dwarf_regnum_for_perf_regnum() support for x86 is currently present.

c310400859 perf dwarf-regs: Clean up x86 dwarf_regnum code
The i386 and x86-64 register numbers differ on x86, but previously x86
was a single arch string and so this couldn't be handled. The
transition to using ELF EM_* values means we can translate x86
registers correctly for either the x86-64 dwarf register mappings
(from the System V ABI) or i386 register mappings. Correct the mappings.

Switch to passing in an e_machine that in the bulk of cases is computed

The e_machine also allows identification of 32-bit vs 64-bit processes.

b7a2b011e9 perf powerpc: Unify the skip-callchain-idx libdw with that for addr2line
Rather than have 2 Dwfl unify the Dwfl in skip-callchain-idx with that
is used by libdw__addr2line().

Rename that variable in 'struct dso' from 'a2l_libdw' to just 'libdw' as
it is now used in more than addr2line.

The Dwfl in skip-callchain-idx uses a map address when being read with
dwfl_report_elf (rather than dwfl_report_offline that addr2line
uses).

skip-callchain-idx is wrong as the map address can vary between
processes because of ASLR, ie it should need a different Dwfl per
process.

In the code after this patch the base address becomes 0 and the mapped
PC is used with the dwfl functions.

This should increase the accuracy of skip-callchain-idx, but the impact
has only been build tested.

e62fae9d9e perf unwind-libdw: Fix a cross-arch unwinding bug
The set_initial_registers field of Dwfl_Thread_Callbacks needs to be set
according to the arch of the stack samples being analyzed, not the arch
that perf itself is built for.

Currently perf fails to unwind stack samples collected from archs
different from that of the host perf is running on.

This patch moves the arch-specific implementations of set_initial_registers
from tools/perf/arch to tools/perf/utli/unwind-libdw-arch, similar to the
way the perf-regs-arch folder contains arch-specific functions related to
registers, and chooses the implementation based on the arch of the data
being processed.

6f87719b8a perf parse-events: Always track user config changes
Requiring the 'pmu->perf_event_attr_init_default' callback to be set to
track user changes is a bit of a trap to fall in. It's hard to see that
this is required when depending on the user change tracking.

It's possible to want all 0 defaults so not set it, but at the same time
still do some programmatic setting of configs with
evsel__set_config_if_unset(). Also if a PMU reverts to 0 defaults and
deletes its existing callback, it will silently break existing uses of
evsel__set_config_if_unset().

One way to fix this would be to assert in evsel__set_config_if_unset()
if the changes weren't tracked, but that would be a possibly untested
runtime failure. Instead, always track it as it's harmless and
simplifies testing too.

all users of it happen to operate on bits that are in that config field.
Fix it before there are any new users of the function which operate on
bits in different config fields.

In theory it's also possible for a driver to move an existing bit to
another config field and this fixes that scenario too, although this
hasn't happened yet either.

a2441cf3a5 perf parse-events: Track all user changed config bits
Currently we only track which bits were set by the user in attr->config.
But all configN fields should be treated equally as they can all have
default and user overridden values.

Track them all by making get_config_chgs() generic and calling it once
for each config value.

5b5e01304f perf evsel: Support sparse fields in evsel__set_config_if_unset()
Sparse config fields are technically supported although currently
unused. field_prep() only works for contiguous bitfields so replace it
with pmu_format_value().

pmu_format_value() also takes a bitmap rather than a u64 so replace
'u64 bits' with format->bits.

159ca97cd9 perf parse-events: Refactor get_config_terms() to remove macros
The ADD_CONFIG_TERM() macros build the __type argument out of a partial
EVSEL__CONFIG_TERM_x enum name. This means that they can't be called
from a function where __type is a variable and it's also impossible to
grep the codebase to find usages of these enums as they're never typed
in full.

Fix this by removing the macros and replacing them with an
add_config_term() function. It seems the main reason these existed in
the first place was to avoid type punning and to write to a specific
field in the union, but the same thing can be achieved with a single
write to a u64 'val' field.

Running the Perf tests with "-fsanitize=undefined -fno-sanitize-recover"
results in no new issues as a result of this change.
