'perf record' will error out if both --delay and LBR are applied.
For example:
# perf record -D 1000 -a -e cycles -j any -- sleep 2
Error:
dummy:HG: PMU Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts.
Try 'perf stat'
#
A dummy event is added implicitly for initial delay, which has the same
configurations as real sampling events. The dummy event is a software
event. If LBR is configured, perf must error out.
The dummy event will only be used to track PERF_RECORD_MMAP while perf
waits for the initial delay to enable the real events. The BRANCH_STACK
bit can be safely cleared for the dummy event.
After applying the patch:
# perf record -D 1000 -a -e cycles -j any -- sleep 2
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.054 MB perf.data (828 samples) ]

There's no reason to have separate function to display clock events.
It's only purpose was to convert the nanosecond value into microseconds.
We do that now in generic code, if the unit and scale values are
properly set, which this patch do for clock events.
The output differs in the unit field being displayed in its columns
rather than having it added as a suffix of the event name. Plus the
value is rounded into 2 decimal numbers as for any other event.
Before:
# perf stat -e cpu-clock,task-clock -C 0 sleep 3
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':
3001.123137 cpu-clock (msec) # 1.000 CPUs utilized
3001.133250 task-clock (msec) # 1.000 CPUs utilized
3.001159813 seconds time elapsed
Now:
# perf stat -e cpu-clock,task-clock -C 0 sleep 3
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':
3,001.05 msec cpu-clock # 1.000 CPUs utilized
3,001.05 msec task-clock # 1.000 CPUs utilized

There's a small difference in csv output, as we now output the unit
field, which was empty before. It's in the proper spot, so there's no
compatibility issue.

so add an evsel__has_callchain(evsel) helper.
This will actually get more uses as we check that instead of

Perf doesn't support mixed events from different PMUs (except software
event) in a group. The perf stat should output <not counted>/<not
supported> for all events, but it doesn't. For example,
perf stat -e '{cycles,uncore_imc_5/umask=0xF,event=0x4/,instructions}'
<not counted> cycles
<not supported> uncore_imc_5/umask=0xF,event=0x4/
1,024,300 instructions
If perf fails to open an event, it doesn't error out directly. It will
disable some features and retry, until the event is opened or all
features are disabled. The disabled features will not be re-enabled. The
group read is one of these features.
For the example as above, the IMC event and the leader event "cycles"
are from different PMUs. Opening the IMC event must fail. The group read
feature must be disabled for IMC event and the followed event
"instructions". The "instructions" event has the same PMU as the leader
"cycles". It can be opened successfully. Since the group read feature
has been disabled, the "instructions" event will be read as a single
event, which definitely has a value.
The group read fallback is still useful for the case which kernel
doesn't support group read. It is good enough to be handled only by the
leader.
For the fallback request from members, it must be caused by an error.
The fallback only breaks the semantics of group. Limit the group read
fallback only for the leader.

The 'perf stat' fallback for EACCES error sets the exclude_kernel
perf_event_attr and tries perf_event_open() again with it. In addition,
it also changes the name of the event to reflect that change by adding
the 'u' modifier.
But it does not take into account the '/' separator, so the event name
can end up mangled, like: (note the '/:' characters)
$ perf stat -e cpu/cpu-cycles/ kill
...
386,832 cpu/cpu-cycles/:u
Adding the code to check on the '/' separator and set the following
correct event name:

To simplify creation of events accross multiple instances of the same
type of PMU stat supports two methods for creating multiple events from
a single event specification:
1. A prefix or glob can be used in the PMU name.
2. Aliases, which are listed immediately after the Kernel PMU events
by perf list, are used.
When the --no-merge option is passed and these events are displayed
individually the PMU name is lost and it's not possible to see which
count corresponds to which pmu:
$ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
67 l3cache/read-miss/
67 l3cache/read-miss/
63 l3cache/read-miss/
60 l3cache/read-miss/
0.001675706 seconds time elapsed
$ perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
12 l3cache_read_miss
17 l3cache_read_miss
10 l3cache_read_miss
8 l3cache_read_miss
0.001661305 seconds time elapsed
This change adds the original pmu name to the event. For dynamic pmu
events the pmu name is restored in the event name:
$ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
63 l3cache_0_3/read-miss/
74 l3cache_0_1/read-miss/
64 l3cache_0_2/read-miss/
74 l3cache_0_0/read-miss/
0.001675706 seconds time elapsed
For alias events the name is added after the event name:
$ perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
10 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_3]
12 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_1]

It is not really closing the cgroup, but instead dropping a reference
count and if it hits zero, then calling delete, which will, among other
cleanup shores, close the cgroup fd.
So it is really dropping a reference to that cgroup, and the method name
for that is "put", so rename close_cgroup() to cgroup__put() to follow
this naming convention.

If we execute 'perf stat --per-thread' with non-root account (even set

Error:
You may not have permission to collect system-wide stats.
Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid,
which controls use of the performance events system by
unprivileged users (without CAP_SYS_ADMIN).
The current value is 2:
-1: Allow use of (almost) all events by all users
Ignore mlock limit after perf_event_mlock_kb without CAP_IPC_LOCK
>= 0: Disallow ftrace function tracepoint by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
Disallow raw tracepoint access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
>= 1: Disallow CPU event access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
>= 2: Disallow kernel profiling by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
To make this setting permanent, edit /etc/sysctl.conf too, e.g.:
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1
Perhaps the ptrace rule doesn't allow to trace some processes. But anyway
the global --per-thread mode had better ignore such errors and continue
working on other threads.
This patch will record the index of error thread in perf_evsel__open()
and remove this thread before retrying.

event, as we know it already, it is in perf_event_attr.sample_period.

When we use a global DWARF setting as in:
perf record --call-graph dwarf
According to 5c0cf22477 ("perf record: Store data mmaps for dwarf unwind") we need
to set up some extra perf_event_attr bits.
But when we instead do a per event dwarf setting:
perf record -e cycles/call-graph=dwarf/
This was not being done, make them equivalent.
This didn't produce any output changes in my tests while fixing up loose
ends in the per-event settings, I found it just by comparing the
perf_event_attr fields trying to find an explanation for those problems.

While monitoring a multithread process with pid option, perf sometimes
may return sys_perf_event_open failure with 3(No such process) if any of
the process's threads die before we open the event. However, we want
perf continue monitoring the remaining threads and do not exit with
error.
Here, the patch enables perf_evsel::ignore_missing_thread for -p option
to ignore complete failure if any of threads die before we open the event.
But it may still return sys_perf_event_open failure with 22(Invalid) if we
monitors several event groups.
sys_perf_event_open: pid 28960 cpu 40 group_fd 118202 flags 0x8
sys_perf_event_open: pid 28961 cpu 40 group_fd 118203 flags 0x8
WARNING: Ignored open failure for pid 28962
sys_perf_event_open: pid 28962 cpu 40 group_fd [118203] flags 0x8
sys_perf_event_open failed, error -22
That is because when we ignore a missing thread, we change the thread_idx
without dealing with its fds, FD(evsel, cpu, thread). Then get_group_fd()
may return a wrong group_fd for the next thread and sys_perf_event_open()
return with 22.
sys_perf_event_open(){
...
if (group_fd != -1)
perf_fget_light()//to get corresponding group_leader by group_fd
...
if (group_leader)
if (group_leader->ctx->task != ctx->task)//should on the same task
goto err_context
...
}
This patch also fixes this bug by introducing perf_evsel__remove_fd() and
update_fds to allow removing fds for the missing thread.
Changes since v1:
- Change group_fd__remove() into a more genetic way without changing code logic
- Remove redundant condition
Changes since v2:
- Use a proper function name and add some comment.
- Multiline comment style fixes.
Committer testing:
Before this patch the recently added 'perf stat --per-thread' for system
wide counting would race while enumerating all threads using /proc:
[root@jouet ~]# perf stat --per-thread
failed to parse CPUs map: No such file or directory
Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]
-C, --cpu <cpu> list of cpus to monitor in system-wide
-a, --all-cpus system-wide collection from all CPUs
[root@jouet ~]# perf stat --per-thread
failed to parse CPUs map: No such file or directory
Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]
-C, --cpu <cpu> list of cpus to monitor in system-wide
-a, --all-cpus system-wide collection from all CPUs
[root@jouet ~]#
When, say, the kernel was being built, so lots of shortlived threads,
after this patch this doesn't happen.

When we detect a different endianity we swap event before processing.
It's tricky for samples because we have no idea what's inside. We treat
it as an array of u64s, swap them and later on we swap back parts which
are different.
We mangle this way also the tracepoint raw data, which ends up in report
showing wrong data:
1.95% comm=Q^B pid=29285 prio=16777216 target_cpu=000
1.67% comm=l^B pid=0 prio=16777216 target_cpu=000
Luckily the traceevent library handles the endianity by itself (thank
you Steven!), so we can pass the RAW data directly in the other
endianity.
2.51% comm=beah-rhts-task pid=1175 prio=120 target_cpu=002
2.23% comm=kworker/0:0 pid=11566 prio=120 target_cpu=000
The fix is basically to swap back the raw data if different endianity is
detected.

The Intel PMU event aliases have a implicit period= specifier to set the
default period.
Unfortunately this breaks overriding these periods with -c or -F,
because the alias terms look like they are user specified to the
internal parser, and user specified event qualifiers override the
command line options.
Track that they are coming from aliases by adding a "weak" state to the
term. Any weak terms don't override command line options.
I only did it for -c/-F for now, I think that's the only case that's
broken currently.
Before:
$ perf record -c 1000 -vv -e uops_issued.any

Yet another fix for probing the max attr.precise_ip setting: it is not
enough settting attr.exclude_kernel for !root users, as they _can_
profile the kernel if the kernel.perf_event_paranoid sysctl is set to
-1, so check that as well.
Testing it:
As non root:
$ sysctl kernel.perf_event_paranoid
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = 2
$ perf record sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
cycles:uppp: ..., exclude_kernel: 1, ... precise_ip: 3, ...
Now as non-root, but with kernel.perf_event_paranoid set set to the
most permissive value, -1:
$ sysctl kernel.perf_event_paranoid
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1
$ perf record sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
cycles:ppp: ..., exclude_kernel: 0, ... precise_ip: 3, ...
$
I.e. non-root, default kernel.perf_event_paranoid: :uppp modifier = not allowed to sample the kernel,
non-root, most permissible kernel.perf_event_paranoid: :ppp = allowed to sample the kernel.
In both cases, use the highest available precision: attr.precise_ip = 3.

The event is allocated with cpus == 1, but freed with cpus == real number
When the evsel close function walks the file descriptors it exceeds the
fd xyarray boundaries and reads random memory.
v2:
Now that xyarrays save their original dimensions we can use these to
iterate the two dimensional fd arrays. Fix some users (close, ioctl) in
evsel.c to use these fields directly. This allows simplifying the code
and dropping quite a few function arguments. Adjust all callers by
removing the unneeded arguments.
The actual perf event reading still uses the original values from the
evsel list.

Make perf stat use group read if there are groups defined. The group
read will get the values for all member of groups within a single
syscall instead of calling read syscall for every event.
We can see considerable less amount of kernel cycles spent on single
group read, than reading each event separately, like for following perf
stat command:
# perf stat -e {cycles,instructions} -I 10 -a sleep 1
Monitored with "perf stat -r 5 -e '{cycles:u,cycles:k}'"
Before:
24,325,676 cycles:u
297,040,775 cycles:k
1.038554134 seconds time elapsed
After:
25,034,418 cycles:u
158,256,395 cycles:k
1.036864497 seconds time elapsed

Add perf_evsel__read_counter() to read single or group counter. After
calling this function the counter's evsel::counts struct is filled with
values for the counter and member of its group if there are any.

Currently we use the size of struct perf_counts_values to read the
event, which prevents us to put any new member to the struct.
Adding perf_evsel__read_size to return size of the buffer needed for
event read.

We create many test events before the real ones just to test specific
features. But there's no way for attr tests to separate those test
events from those it needs to check.
Adding 'ready' call from the events open interface to trigger/start
events collection for attr test.

There are cases where we want to leave attr.precise_ip as zero, such
as when using 'perf record --no-samples', where this would make the
kernel return -EINVAL.
