c65c83ffe9 perf trace: Allow asking for not suppressing common string prefixes
So far we've been suppressing common stuff such as "MAP_" in the mmap
flags, showing "SHARED" instead of "MAP_SHARED", allow for those
prefixes (and a few suffixes) to be shown:

  # trace -e *map,open*,*seek sleep 1

9ed45d59ae perf trace: Make the alignment of the syscall args be configurable
Since the start 'perf trace' aligns the parens enclosing the list of
syscall args to align the syscall results, allow this to be
configurable, keeping the default of 70. Using:

  # perf config
  llvm.dump-obj=true
  trace.add_events=/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
  trace.show_zeros=yes
  trace.show_duration=no
  trace.no_inherit=yes
  trace.show_timestamp=no
  trace.show_arg_names=no
  trace.args_alignment=0
  # trace -e open*,close,*sleep sleep 1
  openat(CWD, /etc/ld.so.cache, CLOEXEC) = 3
  close(3) = 0
  openat(CWD, /lib64/libc.so.6, CLOEXEC) = 3
  close(3) = 0
  openat(CWD, /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive, CLOEXEC) = 3
  close(3) = 0
  nanosleep(0x7ffc00de66f0, 0) = 0
  close(1) = 0

d32de87e73 perf trace: Allow configuring default for perf_event_attr.inherit
I.f. if children should inherit the parent perf_event configuration,
i.e. if we should trace children as well or just the parent.

The default is to follow children, to disable this and have a behaviour
similar to strace, set this config option or use the --no_inherit 'perf
trace' option.

E.g.:

Default:

  # perf config trace.no_inherit
  # trace -e clone,*sleep time sleep 1
     0.000 time/21107 clone(clone_flags: CHILD_CLEARTID|CHILD_SETTID|0x11, newsp: 0, child_tidptr: 0x7f7b8f9ae810) = 21108 (time)
         ? time/21108  ... [continued]: clone()
     0.691 sleep/21108 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffed01d0540, rmtp: 0                               ) = 0
  0.00user 0.00system 0:01.00elapsed 0%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 1988maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+76minor)pagefaults 0swaps
  #

Disable it:

  # trace -e clone,*sleep time sleep 1
     0.000 clone(clone_flags: CHILD_CLEARTID|CHILD_SETTID|0x11, newsp: 0, child_tidptr: 0x7ff41e100810) = 21414 (time)
  0.00user 0.00system 0:01.00elapsed 0%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 1964maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+76minor)pagefaults 0swaps
  #

Notice that since there is just one thread, the "comm/TID" column is
suppressed.

e7c634fcc6 perf trace: Allow configuring if zeroed syscall args should be printed
The default so far, since we show argument names followed by its values,
was to make the output more compact by suppressing most zeroed args.

Make this configurable so that users can choose what best suit their
needs.

ac96287cae perf trace: Allow specifying a set of events to add in perfconfig
To add augmented_raw_syscalls to the events speficied by the user, or be
the only one if no events were specified by the user, one can add this
to perfconfig:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [trace]
	  add_events = /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
  #

I.e. pre-compile the augmented_raw_syscalls.c BPF program and make it
always load, this way:

  # perf trace -e open* cat /etc/passwd > /dev/null

a761a8d102 perf trace: Allow selecting use the use of the ordered_events code
I was trigger happy on this one, as using ordered_events as implemented
by Jiri for use with the --block code under discussion on lkml incurs
in delaying processing to form batches that then get ordered and then
printed.

With 'perf trace' we want to process the events as they go, without that
delay, and doing it that way works well for the common case which is to
trace a thread or a workload started by 'perf trace'.

So revert back to not using ordered_events but add an option to select
that mode so that users can experiment with their particular use case to
see if works better, i.e. if the added delay is not a problem and the
ordering helps.

3fcb10e496 perf tools: Allow specifying proc-map-timeout in config file
The default timeout of 500ms for parsing /proc/<pid>/maps files is too
short for profiling many of our services.

This can be overridden by passing --proc-map-timeout to the relevant
command but it'd be nice to globally increase our default value.

This patch permits setting a different default with the
core.proc-map-timeout config file parameter.

1a7ea3283f perf tools Documentation: Fix diverse typos
Go over the tools/ files that are maintained in Arnaldo's tree and
fix common typos: half of them were in comments, the other half
in JSON files.

No change in functionality intended.

Committer notes:

This was split from a larger patch as there are code that is,
additionally, maintained outside the kernel tree, so to ease cherry
picking and/or backporting, split this into multiple patches.

In this particular case, it affects documentation, so may be interesting
to cherry pick as it is information that is presented to the user.

93f20c0fe3 perf record: Extend trace writing to multi AIO
Multi AIO trace writing allows caching more kernel data into userspace
memory postponing trace writing for the sake of overall profiling data
thruput increase. It could be seen as kernel data buffer extension into
userspace memory.

With an --aio option value different from 0 (default value is 1) the
tool has capability to cache more and more data into user space along
with delegating spill to AIO.

That allows avoiding to suspend at record__aio_sync() between calls of
record__mmap_read_evlist() and increases profiling data thruput at the
cost of userspace memory.

d3d1af6f01 perf record: Enable asynchronous trace writing
The trace file offset is read once before mmaps iterating loop and
written back after all performance data is enqueued for aio writing.

The trace file offset is incremented linearly after every successful aio
write operation.

record__aio_sync() blocks till completion of the started AIO operation
and then proceeds.

record__aio_mmap_read_sync() implements a barrier for all incomplete
aio write requests.

1b3aae90c6 perf top: Allow passing a kallsyms file
This basically replicates what was done for 'perf report' in:

   b226a5a729 ("perf report: Allow user to specify path to kallsyms file")

This should help with resolving eBPF symbols, that are in kallsyms but,
of course, not in vmlinux.

121dd9ea01 perf bench: Add epoll parallel epoll_wait benchmark
This program benchmarks concurrent epoll_wait(2) for file descriptors
that are monitored with with EPOLLIN along various semantics, by a
single epoll instance. Such conditions can be found when using
single/combined or multiple queuing when load balancing.

Each thread has a number of private, nonblocking file descriptors,
referred to as fdmap. A writer thread will constantly be writing to the
fdmaps of all threads, minimizing each threads's chances of epoll_wait
not finding any ready read events and blocking as this is not what we
want to stress. Full details in the start of the C file.

cf99ad1424 perf record: Support weak groups
Implement a weak group fallback for 'perf record', similar to the
existing 'perf stat' support.  This allows to use groups that might be
longer than the available counters without failing.

Before:

  $ perf record  -e '{cycles,cache-misses,cache-references,cpu_clk_unhalted.thread,cycles,cycles,cycles}' -a sleep 1
  Error:
  The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (cycles).
  /bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.

After:

  $ ./perf record  -e '{cycles,cache-misses,cache-references,cpu_clk_unhalted.thread,cycles,cycles,cycles}:W' -a sleep 1
  WARNING: No sample_id_all support, falling back to unordered processing
  [ perf record: Woken up 3 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 8.136 MB perf.data (134069 samples) ]

218d61110f perf top: Do not use overwrite mode by default
Enabling --overwrite mode allows us to to use just the most recent
records, which helps in high core count machines such as Knights
Landing/Mill, but right now is being disabled by default as the pausing
used in this technique is leading to loss of metadata events such as
PERF_RECORD_MMAP which makes 'perf top' unable to resolve samples,
leading to lots of unknown samples appearing on the UI.

Enabling this may be useful if you are in such machines and profiling a
workload that doesn't creates short lived threads and/or doesn't uses
many executable mmap operations.

Work is being planed to solve this situation, till then, this will
remain disabled by default.

4e303fbe2d perf top: Allow disabling the overwrite mode
In ebebbf0823 ("perf top: Switch default mode to overwrite mode") we
forgot to leave a way to disable that new default, add a --overwrite
option that can be disabled using --no-overwrite, since the code already
in such a way that we can readily disable this mode.

This is useful when investigating bugs with this mode like the recent
report from David Miller where lots of unknown symbols appear due to
disabling the events while processing them which disables all record
types, not just PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE, which makes it impossible to resolve
maps when we lose PERF_RECORD_MMAP records.

This can be easily seen while building a kernel, when there are lots of
short lived processes.

4eb0681571 perf script: Make itrace script default to all calls
By default 'perf script' for itrace outputs sampled instructions or
branches. In my experience this is confusing to users because it's hard
to correlate with real program behavior. The sampling makes sense for
tools like 'perf report' that actually sample to reduce the run time,
but run time is normally not a problem for 'perf script'.  It's better
to give an accurate representation of the program flow.

Default 'perf script' to output all calls for itrace. That's a much saner
default. The old behavior can be still requested with 'perf script'
--itrace=ibxwpe100000

v3: Really fix ETM build failure (Kim Phillips)

b585ebdb59 perf script: Add --insn-trace for instruction decoding
Add a --insn-trace short hand option for decoding and disassembling
instruction streams for intel_pt. This automatically pipes the output
into the xed disassembler to generate disassembled instructions.  This
just makes this use model much nicer to use.

5067a8cdd4 perf trace: Introduce --max-events
Allow stopping tracing after a number of events take place, considering
strace-like syscalls formatting as one event per enter/exit pair or when
in a multi-process tracing session a syscall is interrupted and printed
ending with '...'.

Examples included in the documentation:

Trace the first 4 open, openat or open_by_handle_at syscalls (in the future more syscalls may match here):

  $ perf trace -e open* --max-events 4
  [root@jouet perf]# trace -e open* --max-events 4

  2277.481 ( 0.139 ms): gnome-shell/3039 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /proc/self/stat) = 65
  3026.398 ( 0.076 ms): gnome-shell/3039 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /proc/self/stat) = 65
  4294.665 ( 0.015 ms): sed/15879 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3

0ce2da1483 perf stat: Display user and system time
Adding the support to read rusage data once the workload is finished and
display the system/user time values:

  $ perf stat --null perf bench sched pipe
  ...

   Performance counter stats for 'perf bench sched pipe':

       5.342599256 seconds time elapsed

       2.544434000 seconds user
       4.549691000 seconds sys

It works only in non -r mode and only for workload target.

So as of now, for workload targets, we display 3 types of timings. The
time we meassure in perf stat from enable to disable+period:

       5.342599256 seconds time elapsed

The time spent in user and system lands, displayed only for workload
session/target:

       2.544434000 seconds user
       4.549691000 seconds sys

Those times are the very same displayed by 'time' tool.  They are
returned by wait4 call via the getrusage struct interface.

Committer notes:

Had to rename some variables to avoid this on older systems such as
centos:6:

  builtin-stat.c: In function 'print_footer':
  builtin-stat.c:1831: warning: declaration of 'stime' shadows a global declaration

ffef80ecf8 perf Documentation: Support for asciidoctor
The asciidoc package seems behind the recent big wave of python3
conversion, and we were advised to switch to asciidoctor instead.  It's
almost compatible but some extensions used for perf documentation don't
work with it.  Here is the patch to cover them, and add the proper
support for asciidoctor.

Pass USE_ASCIIDOCTOR=yes to make for using asciidoctor instead of
asciidoc.  The man source and manual attributes are passed via command
options.  The support for these attributes have been fixed in the
latest asciidoctor code.

Since asciidoctor can covert to a man page and an HTML directly, we
can omit the dependency on xmlto when USE_ASCIIDOCTOR is set.

8e1e0d7467 perf buildid-cache: Support --list option
'perf buildid-cache' allows to add/remove files into cache but there is
no option to list all cached files. Add --list option to list all
_valid_ cached files.

Ex,
  # perf buildid-cache --add /tmp/a.out
  # perf buildid-cache -l

For perf mem report / perf mem record, pass all unknown options
through to the underlying report/record commands. This makes things
like

perf mem record -a sleep 1

work. Matches how c2c and other tools work.

'Sp' means preemption context switch. Documentation is extended to cover

43c4023152 perf annotate: Allow setting the offset level in .perfconfig
The default is 1 (jump_target):

  # perf annotate --ignore-vmlinux --stdio2 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
  Samples: 3K of event 'cycles:ppp', 3000 Hz, Event count (approx.): 2766398574
  _raw_spin_lock_irqsave() /proc/kcore
    0.26        nop
    4.61        push   %rbx
   19.33        pushfq
    7.97        pop    %rax
    0.32        nop
    0.06        mov    %rax,%rbx
   14.63        cli
    0.06        nop
                xor    %eax,%eax
                mov    $0x1,%edx
   49.94        lock   cmpxchg %edx,(%rdi)
    0.16        test   %eax,%eax
              ↓ jne    2b
    2.66        mov    %rbx,%rax
                pop    %rbx
              ← retq
          2b:   mov    %eax,%esi
              → callq  *ffffffffb30eaed0
                mov    %rbx,%rax
                pop    %rbx
              ← retq
  #

But one can ask for showing offsets for call instructions by setting
this:

  # perf annotate --ignore-vmlinux --stdio2 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
  Samples: 3K of event 'cycles:ppp', 3000 Hz, Event count (approx.): 2766398574
  _raw_spin_lock_irqsave() /proc/kcore
    0.26        nop
    4.61        push   %rbx
   19.33        pushfq
    7.97        pop    %rax
    0.32        nop
    0.06        mov    %rax,%rbx
   14.63        cli
    0.06        nop
                xor    %eax,%eax
                mov    $0x1,%edx
   49.94        lock   cmpxchg %edx,(%rdi)
    0.16        test   %eax,%eax
              ↓ jne    2b
    2.66        mov    %rbx,%rax
                pop    %rbx
              ← retq
          2b:   mov    %eax,%esi
          2d: → callq  *ffffffffb30eaed0
                mov    %rbx,%rax
                pop    %rbx
              ← retq
  #

Or using a big value to ask for all offsets to be shown:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [annotate]

	offset_level = 100

	hide_src_code = true
  # perf annotate --ignore-vmlinux --stdio2 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
  Samples: 3K of event 'cycles:ppp', 3000 Hz, Event count (approx.): 2766398574
  _raw_spin_lock_irqsave() /proc/kcore
    0.26   0:   nop
    4.61   5:   push   %rbx
   19.33   6:   pushfq
    7.97   7:   pop    %rax
    0.32   8:   nop
    0.06   d:   mov    %rax,%rbx
   14.63  10:   cli
    0.06  11:   nop
          17:   xor    %eax,%eax
          19:   mov    $0x1,%edx
   49.94  1e:   lock   cmpxchg %edx,(%rdi)
    0.16  22:   test   %eax,%eax
          24: ↓ jne    2b
    2.66  26:   mov    %rbx,%rax
          29:   pop    %rbx
          2a: ← retq
          2b:   mov    %eax,%esi
          2d: → callq  *ffffffffb30eaed0
          32:   mov    %rbx,%rax
          35:   pop    %rbx
          36: ← retq
   #

This also affects the TUI, i.e. the default 'perf annotate' and 'perf
top/report' -> A hotkey -> annotate interfaces, when slang-devel is present
in the build, i.e.:

  # perf version --build-options | grep slang
              libslang: [ on  ]  # HAVE_SLANG_SUPPORT
