6f91ea283a perf header: Support CPU PMU capabilities
To stitch LBR call stack, the max LBR information is required. So the
CPU PMU capabilities information has to be stored in perf header.

Add a new feature HEADER_CPU_PMU_CAPS for CPU PMU capabilities.
Retrieve all CPU PMU capabilities, not just max LBR information.

Add variable max_branches to facilitate future usage.

Committer testing:

3a6c51e4d6 perf parser: Add support to specify rXXX event with pmu
The current rXXXX event specification creates event under PERF_TYPE_RAW
pmu type. This change allows to use rXXXX within pmu syntax, so it's
type is used via the following syntax:

  -e 'cpu/r3c/'
  -e 'cpum_cf/r0/'

The XXXX number goes directly to perf_event_attr::config the same way as
in '-e rXXXX' event. The perf_event_attr::type is filled with pmu type.

Committer testing:

So, lets see what goes in perf_event_attr::config for, say, the
'instructions' PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE (0) event, first we should look at how
to encode this event as a PERF_TYPE_RAW event for this specific CPU, an
AMD Ryzen 5:

  # cat /sys/devices/cpu/events/instructions
  event=0xc0
  #

Then try with it _and_ the instruction, just to see that they are close
enough:

  # perf stat -e rc0,instructions sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':

             919,794      rc0
             919,898      instructions

         1.000754579 seconds time elapsed

         0.000715000 seconds user
         0.000000000 seconds sys
  #

Now we should try, before this patch, the PMU event encoding:

  # perf stat -e cpu/rc0/ sleep 1
  event syntax error: 'cpu/rc0/'
                           \___ unknown term

  valid terms: event,edge,inv,umask,cmask,config,config1,config2,name,period,percore
  #

Now with this patch, the three ways of specifying the 'instructions' CPU
counter are accepted:

  # perf stat -e cpu/rc0/,rc0,instructions sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':

             892,948      cpu/rc0/
             893,052      rc0
             893,156      instructions

         1.000931819 seconds time elapsed

e345997914 perf tools: Add support for leader-sampling with AUX area events
When AUX area events are used in sampling mode, they must be the group
leader, but the group leader is also used for leader-sampling. However,
it is not desirable to use an AUX area event as the leader for
leader-sampling, because it doesn't have any samples of its own. To support
leader-sampling with AUX area events, use the 2nd event of the group as the
"leader" for the purposes of leader-sampling.

Example:

 # perf record --kcore --aux-sample -e '{intel_pt//,cycles,instructions}:S' -c 10000 uname
 [ perf record: Woken up 3 times to write data ]
 [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.786 MB perf.data ]

2a4b51666a perf bench: Add event synthesis benchmark
Event synthesis may occur at the start or end (tail) of a perf command.
In system-wide mode it can scan every process in /proc, which may add
seconds of latency before event recording. Add a new benchmark that
times how long event synthesis takes with and without data synthesis.

An example execution looks like:

 $ perf bench internals synthesize
 # Running 'internals/synthesize' benchmark:
 Average synthesis took: 168.253800 usec
 Average data synthesis took: 208.104700 usec

df7deb2cce perf top: Support --group-sort-idx to change the sort order
'perf report' supports the option --group-sort-idx, which sorts the
output by the event at the index n in event group.

For example:

  perf record -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses
  perf report --group --group-sort-idx 2 --stdio

The perf-report output is sorted by cache-misses.

This patch supports --group-sort-idx in perf-top.

For example:

  perf top --group -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses --group-sort-idx 2

The perf-top output is sorted by cache-misses.

8fb4b67939 perf record: Add --all-cgroups option
The --all-cgroups option is to enable cgroup profiling support.  It
tells kernel to record CGROUP events in the ring buffer so that perf
report can identify task/cgroup association later.

b629f3e9d0 perf report: Add 'cgroup' sort key
The cgroup sort key is to show cgroup membership of each task.
Currently it shows full path in the cgroupfs (not relative to the root
of cgroup namespace) since it'd be more intuitive IMHO.  Otherwise root
cgroup in different namespaces will all show same name - "/".

The cgroup sort key should come before cgroup_id otherwise
sort_dimension__add() will match it to cgroup_id as it only matches with
the given substring.

For example it will look like following.  Note that record patch adding
--all-cgroups patch will come later.

  $ perf record -a --namespace --all-cgroups  cgtest
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]

26567ed79d perf script: Introduce --deltatime option
For some kind of analysis a deltatime output is more human friendly and
reduce the cognitive load for further analysis.

The following output demonstrate the new option "deltatime": calculate
the time difference in relation to the previous event.

  $ perf script --deltatime

Committer testing:

So go from default output to --reltime and then this new --deltatime, to
contrast the various timestamp presentation modes for a random perf.data file I
had laying around:

  [root@five ~]#

Andi suggested we better implement it as a new field, i.e. -F deltatime, like:

  [root@five ~]# perf script -F deltatime
  Invalid field requested.

   Usage: perf script [<options>]
      or: perf script [<options>] record <script> [<record-options>] <command>
      or: perf script [<options>] report <script> [script-args]
      or: perf script [<options>] <script> [<record-options>] <command>
      or: perf script [<options>] <top-script> [script-args]

      -F, --fields <str>    comma separated output fields prepend with 'type:'. +field to add and -field to remove.Valid types: hw,sw,trace,raw,synth. Fields: comm,tid,pid,time,cpu,event,trace,ip,sym,dso,addr,symoff,srcline,period,iregs,uregs,brstack,brstacksym,flags,bpf-output,brstackinsn,brstackoff,callindent,insn,insnlen,synth,phys_addr,metric,misc,ipc
  [root@five ~]#

I.e. we have -F for maximum flexibility:

  [root@five ~]# perf script -F comm,pid,cpu,time | head
            perf 442394 [000]  7600.157861:
            perf 442394 [000]  7600.157864:
            perf 442394 [000]  7600.157866:
            perf 442394 [000]  7600.157867:
            perf 442394 [000]  7600.157870:
            perf 442394 [001]  7600.157897:
            perf 442394 [001]  7600.157900:
            perf 442394 [001]  7600.157901:
            perf 442394 [001]  7600.157903:
            perf 442394 [001]  7600.157906:
  [root@five ~]#

But since we already have --reltime, having --deltatime, documented one after
the other is sensible.

429a5f9d89 perf report: Allow specifying event to be used as sort key in --group output
When performing "perf report --group", it shows the event group
information together. By default, the output is sorted by the first
event in group.

It would be nice for user to select any event for sorting. This patch
introduces a new option "--group-sort-idx" to sort the output by the
event at the index n in event group.

For example,

Before:

  # perf report --group --stdio

  # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.

Now the output is sorted by the fourth event in group.

 v7:
 ---
 Rebase to latest perf/core, no other change.

 v4:
 ---
 1. Update Documentation/perf-report.txt to mention
    '--group-sort-idx' support multiple groups with different
    amount of events and it should be used on grouped events.

 2. Update __hpp__group_sort_idx(), just return when the
    idx is out of limit.

 3. Return failure on symbol_conf.group_sort_idx && !session->evlist->nr_groups.
    So now we don't need to use together with --group.

 v3:
 ---
 Refine the code in __hpp__group_sort_idx().

 Before:
   for (i = 1; i < nr_members; i++) {
        if (i == idx) {
                ret = field_cmp(fields_a[i], fields_b[i]);
                if (ret)
                        goto out;
        }
   }

 After:
   if (idx >= 1 && idx < nr_members) {
        ret = field_cmp(fields_a[idx], fields_b[idx]);
        if (ret)
                goto out;
   }

1af62ce61c perf stat: Show percore counts in per CPU output
We have supported the event modifier "percore" which sums up the event
counts for all hardware threads in a core and show the counts per core.

For example,

 # perf stat -e cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/ -a -A -- sleep 1

  Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

 S0-D0-C0                395,072      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 S0-D0-C1                851,248      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 S0-D0-C2                954,226      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 S0-D0-C3              1,233,659      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/

This patch provides a new option "--percore-show-thread". It is used
with event modifier "percore" together to sum up the event counts for
all hardware threads in a core but show the counts per hardware thread.

This is essentially a replacement for the any bit (which is gone in
Icelake). Per core counts are useful for some formulas, e.g. CoreIPC.
The original percore version was inconvenient to post process. This
variant matches the output of the any bit.

With this patch, for example,

 # perf stat -e cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/ -a -A --percore-show-thread  -- sleep 1

  Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

 CPU0               2,453,061      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU1               1,823,921      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU2               1,383,166      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU3               1,102,652      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU4               2,453,061      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU5               1,823,921      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU6               1,383,166      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU7               1,102,652      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/

We can see counts are duplicated in CPU pairs (CPU0/CPU4, CPU1/CPU5,
CPU2/CPU6, CPU3/CPU7).

The interval mode also works. For example,

 # perf stat -e cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/ -a -A --percore-show-thread  -I 1000
 #           time CPU                    counts unit events
      1.000425421 CPU0                 925,032      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
      1.000425421 CPU1                 430,202      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
      1.000425421 CPU2                 436,843      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
      1.000425421 CPU3               1,192,504      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
      1.000425421 CPU4                 925,032      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
      1.000425421 CPU5                 430,202      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
      1.000425421 CPU6                 436,843      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
      1.000425421 CPU7               1,192,504      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/

If we offline CPU5, the result is:

 # perf stat -e cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/ -a -A --percore-show-thread -- sleep 1

  Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

 CPU0               2,752,148      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU1               1,009,312      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU2               2,784,072      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU3               2,427,922      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU4               2,752,148      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU6               2,784,072      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU7               2,427,922      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/

        1.001416041 seconds time elapsed

 v4:
 ---
 Ravi Bangoria reports an issue in v3. Once we offline a CPU,
 the output is not correct. The issue is we should use the cpu
 idx in print_percore_thread rather than using the cpu value.

 v3:
 ---
 1. Fix the interval mode output error
 2. Use cpu value (not cpu index) in config->aggr_get_id().
 3. Refine the code according to Jiri's comments.

 v2:
 ---
 Add the explanation in change log. This is essentially a replacement
 for the any bit. No code change.

perf config annotate options says it works only with TUI, which is wrong.

9974406884 perf kvm: Clarify the 'perf kvm' -i and -o command line options
The 'perf kvm' subcommand has options that it in turn passes to other
perf subcommands such as 'report' and 'record', particularly -i and -o
end up setting the same variable that will then be used for 'record's -o
and report '-i', which ends up being confusing, leading some to think
that both -i and -o can be used with 'report'.

Improve the man page to state that -i is used with the post-processing
subcommands while -o is used just with 'record' and that to save the
output of 'report' one should simply redirect its output to a file.

Noticed while reading the https://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Perf_events
page.

eb7a52d46c perf record: Add aux-sample-size config term
To allow individual events to be selected for AUX area sampling, add
aux-sample-size config term. attr.aux_sample_size is updated by
auxtrace_parse_sample_options() so that the existing validation will see
the value. Any event that has a non-zero aux_sample_size will cause AUX
area sampling to be configured, irrespective of the --aux-sample option.

c0a6de06c4 perf record: Add support for AUX area sampling
Add a 'perf record' option '--aux-sample' to request AUX area sampling.
AUX area sampling uses an overwriting buffer much like snapshot mode, so
adjust the AUX buffer mmapping accordingly. To make it easy to queue
samples for decoding, synthesize an ID index.

Committer notes:

Just like the 'verbose' variable this new 'debug_peo_args' needs to be
added to util/python.c, since we don't link the debug.o file in the
python binding, which ended up making 'perf test python' fail with:

  # perf test -v python
  18: 'import perf' in python                               :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 19237
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  ImportError: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: debug_peo_args
  test child finished with -1
  ---- end ----
  'import perf' in python: FAILED!
  #

After adding that new variable to util/python.c:

  # perf test -v python
  18: 'import perf' in python                               :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 22364
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----
  'import perf' in python: Ok

6f7164fa23 perf report: Sort by sampled cycles percent per block for stdio
It would be useful to support sorting for all blocks by the sampled
cycles percent per block. This is useful to concentrate on the globally
hottest blocks.

This patch implements a new option "--total-cycles" which sorts all
blocks by 'Sampled Cycles%'. The 'Sampled Cycles%' is the percent:

 percent = block sampled cycles aggregation / total sampled cycles

Note that, this patch only supports "--stdio" mode.

For example,

  # perf record -b ./div
  # perf report --total-cycles --stdio
  # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
  #
  # Total Lost Samples: 0
  #
  # Samples: 2M of event 'cycles'
  # Event count (approx.): 2753248
  #
  # Sampled Cycles%  Sampled Cycles  Avg Cycles%  Avg Cycles                             [Program Block Range]      Shared Object

 v7:
 ---
 Use use_browser in report__browse_block_hists for supporting
 stdio and potential tui mode.

 v6:
 ---
 Create report__browse_block_hists in block-info.c (codes are
 moved from builtin-report.c). It's called from
 perf_evlist__tty_browse_hists.

 v5:
 ---
 1. Move all block functions to block-info.c

 2. Move the code of setting ms in block hist_entry to
    other patch.

 v4:
 ---
 1. Use new option '--total-cycles' to replace
    '-s total_cycles' in v3.

 2. Move block info collection out of block info
    printing.

 v3:
 ---
 1. Use common function block_info__process_sym to
    process the blocks per symbol.

 2. Remove the nasty hack for skipping calculation
    of column length

 3. Some minor cleanup

6d57581659 perf record: Add support for limit perf output file size
The patch adds a new option to limit the output file size, then based on
it, we can create a wrapper of the perf command that uses the option to
avoid exhausting the disk space by the unconscious user.

In order to make the perf.data parsable, we just limit the sample data
size, since the perf.data consists of many headers and sample data and
other data, the actual size of the recorded file will bigger than the
setting value.

Testing it:

  # ./perf record -a -g --max-size=10M
  Couldn't synthesize bpf events.
  [ perf record: perf size limit reached (10249 KB), stopping session ]
  [ perf record: Woken up 32 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 10.133 MB perf.data (71964 samples) ]

  # ls -lh perf.data
  -rw------- 1 root root 11M Oct 22 14:32 perf.data

  # ./perf record -a -g --max-size=10K
  [ perf record: perf size limit reached (10 KB), stopping session ]
  Couldn't synthesize bpf events.
  [ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.546 MB perf.data (69 samples) ]

  # ls -l perf.data
  -rw------- 1 root root 1626952 Oct 22 14:36 perf.data

Committer notes:

Fixed the build in multiple distros by using PRIu64 to print u64 struct
members, fixing this:

  builtin-record.c: In function 'record__write':
  builtin-record.c:150:5: error: format '%lu' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 3 has type 'u64' [-Werror=format=]
       rec->bytes_written >> 10);

eeb399b531 perf record: Put a copy of kcore into the perf.data directory
Add a new 'perf record' option '--kcore' which will put a copy of
/proc/kcore, kallsyms and modules into a perf.data directory. Note, that
without the --kcore option, output goes to a file as previously.  The
tools' -o and -i options work with either a file name or directory name.

Example:

  $ sudo perf record --kcore uname

  $ sudo tree perf.data
  perf.data
  ├── kcore_dir
  │   ├── kallsyms
  │   ├── kcore
  │   └── modules
  └── data

46e201efa1 perf data: Support single perf.data file directory
Support directory output that contains a regular perf.data file, named
"data". By default the directory is named perf.data i.e.
	perf.data
	└── data

Most of the infrastructure to support a directory is already there. This
patch makes the changes needed to support the format above.

Presently there is no 'perf record' option to output a directory.

This is preparation for adding support for putting a copy of /proc/kcore in
the directory.

a7f6c8c81a perf list: Hide deprecated events by default
There are some deprecated events listed by perf list. But we can't
remove them from perf list with ease because some old scripts may use
them.

Deprecated events are old names of renamed events.  When an event gets
renamed the old name is kept around for some time and marked with
Deprecated. The newer Intel event lists in the tree already have these
headers.

So we need to keep them in the event list, but provide a new option to
show them. The new option is "--deprecated".

With this patch, the deprecated events are hidden by default but they
can be displayed when option "--deprecated" is enabled.

dd071024bf perf stat: Support --all-kernel/--all-user
'perf record' has supported --all-kernel / --all-user to configure all
used events to run in kernel space or run in user space. But 'perf stat'
doesn't support these options.

It would be useful to support these options in 'perf stat' too to keep
the same semantics available in both tools.

cebf7d51a6 perf diff: Report noisy for cycles diff
This patch prints the stddev and hist for the cycles diff of program
block. It can help us to understand if the cycles is noisy or not.

This patch is inspired by Andi Kleen's patch:

  https://lwn.net/Articles/600471/

We create new option '--cycles-hist'.

Example:

  perf record -b ./div
  perf record -b ./div
  perf diff -c cycles

 Rebase to perf/core branch

 v7:
 ---
 1. v6 got Jiri's ACK.
 2. Rebase to latest perf/core branch.

 v6:
 ---
 1. Jiri provides better code for using data__hpp_register() in ui_init().
    Use this code in v6.

 v5:
 ---
 1. Refine the use of data__hpp_register() in ui_init() according to
    Jiri's suggestion.

 v4:
 ---
 1. Rename the new option from '--noisy' to '--cycles-hist'
 2. Remove the option '-n'.
 3. Only update the spark value and stats when '--cycles-hist' is enabled.
 4. Remove the code of printing '..'.

 v3:
 ---
 1. Move the histogram to a separate column
 2. Move the svals[] out of struct stats

 v2:
 ---
 Jiri got a compile error,

  CC       builtin-diff.o
  builtin-diff.c: In function ‘compute_cycles_diff’:
  builtin-diff.c:712:10: error: taking the absolute value of unsigned type ‘u64’ {aka ‘long unsigned int’} has no effect [-Werror=absolute-value]
  712 |          labs(pair->block_info->cycles_spark[i] -
      |          ^~~~

 Because the result of u64 - u64 is still u64. Now we change the type of
 cycles_spark[] to s64.

d4097f1937 perf trace: Introduce --filter for tracepoint events
Similar to what is in 'perf record', works just like there:

  # perf trace -e msr:*
   328.297 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.302 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.306 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.317 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.322 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.327 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.331 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.336 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.340 :0/0 ^Cmsr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
  #

So, for a system wide trace session looking at the write_msr tracepoint
we see a flood of MSR_FS_BASE, we need to get the number for that:

  # grep FS_BASE /tmp/build/perf/trace/beauty/generated/x86_arch_MSRs_array.c
	[0xc0000100 - x86_64_specific_MSRs_offset] = "FS_BASE",
  #

And then use it in a filter:

  # perf trace -e msr:* --filter="msr!=0xc0000100"
  <SNIP>
   942.177 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: IA32_TSC_DEADLINE, val: 3056931068232)
   942.199 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: IA32_TSC_DEADLINE, val: 3057135655252)
   942.203 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: IA32_TSC_DEADLINE, val: 3056931068222)
   942.231 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: IA32_TSC_DEADLINE, val: 3056998373022)
   942.241 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: IA32_TSC_DEADLINE, val: 3056931068236)
  <SNIP>
  #

Ok, lets filter that too, too noisy:

  # grep TSC_DEADLINE /tmp/build/perf/trace/beauty/generated/x86_arch_MSRs_array.c
	[0x000006E0] = "IA32_TSC_DEADLINE",
  #

Ok, just another form of KVM to emit MSRs :-)

Next step: elliminate those greps by getting the filter expression,
looking for arg names, then for the arrays associated with it to do a
reverse lookup.

Also allow those filters to be associated with strace-like syscall
names.

After that: augment the 'val' arg for 'msr:write_msr' based on the first
arg, 'msr'.

Then, do that with eBPF too, not just with tracepoint filters.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
f11b2803bb perf trace: Allow choosing how to augment the tracepoint arguments
So far we used the libtraceevent printing routines when showing
tracepoint arguments, but since 'perf trace' has a lot of beautifiers
for syscall arguments, and since some of those can be used to augment
tracepoint arguments, add a routine to make use of those beautifiers
and allow the user to choose which one to use.

The default now is to use the same beautifiers used for the strace-like
sys_enter+sys_exit lines, but the user can choose the libtraceevent ones
by either using the:

    perf trace --libtraceevent_print

command line option, or by setting:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [trace]
	tracepoint_beautifiers = libtraceevent

For instance, here are some examples:

  # perf trace -e sched:*switch,*sleep,sched:*wakeup,exit*,sched:*exit sleep 1
       0.000 sched:sched_wakeup(comm: "perf", pid: 5273 (perf), prio: 120, success: 1, target_cpu: 6)
       0.621 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffdd06d1140, rmtp: NULL) ...
       0.628 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm: "sleep", prev_pid: 5273 (sleep), prev_prio: 120, prev_state: 1, next_comm: "swapper/6", next_pid: 0, next_prio: 120)
    1000.879 sched:sched_wakeup(comm: "sleep", pid: 5273 (sleep), prio: 120, success: 1, target_cpu: 6)
       0.621  ... [continued]: nanosleep())          = 0
    1001.026 exit_group(error_code: 0)               = ?
    1001.216 sched:sched_process_exit(comm: "sleep", pid: 5273 (sleep), prio: 120)
  #

And then using libtraceevent, as before:

  # perf trace --libtraceevent_print -e sched:*switch,*sleep,sched:*wakeup,exit*,sched:*exit sleep 1
       0.000 sched:sched_wakeup(comm=perf pid=5288 prio=120 target_cpu=001)
       0.739 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffeba6c2f40, rmtp: NULL) ...
       0.747 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm=sleep prev_pid=5288 prev_prio=120 prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/1 next_pid=0 next_prio=120)
    1000.902 sched:sched_wakeup(comm=sleep pid=5288 prio=120 target_cpu=001)
       0.739  ... [continued]: nanosleep())          = 0
    1001.012 exit_group(error_code: 0)               = ?
  #

The new default allocates an array of 'struct syscall_arg_fmt' for the
tracepoint arguments and, just like with syscall arguments, tries to
find suitable syscall_arg__scnprintf_NAME() routines to augment those
tracepoint arguments based on their type (as in the tracefs "format"
file), or even in their name + type, for instance arguntents with names
ending in "fd" with type "int" get the fd scnprintf beautifier attached,
etc.

Soon this will take advantage of the kernel BTF information to augment
enumerations based on the tracefs "format" type info.

2657983b4c perf docs: Correct and clarify jitdump spec
Specification claims latest version of jitdump file format is 2. Current
jit dump reading code treats 1 as the latest version.

Correct spec to match code.

The original language made it unclear the value to be written in the
magic field.

Revise language that the writer always writes the same value. Specify
that the reader uses the value to detect endian mismatches.

d586ac10ce perf docs: Allow man page date to be specified
With this change if a perf_date parameter is provided to asciidoc then
it will override the default date written to the man page metadata.

Without this change, or if the perf_date isn't specified, then the
current date is written to the metadata.

Having this parameter allows the metadata to be constant if builds
happen on different dates.

The name of the parameter is intended to be consistent with the existing
perf_version parameter.

ef4b1a539f perf report: Add --switch-on/--switch-off events
Since 'perf top' shares the histogram browser with 'perf report', then
the same explanation in the previous cset applies.

An additional example uses a pair of SDT events available for systemtap:

  # perf probe --exec=/usr/bin/stap '%*:*'
  Added new events:
    sdt_stap:benchmark__thread__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:benchmark   (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:benchmark__thread__end (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass6__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass6__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass5__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass5__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass0__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass0__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass1a__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass1b__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass1__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass2__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass2__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass3__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass3__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass4__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass4__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:benchmark__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:benchmark__end (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:cache__get  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:cache__clean (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:cache__add__module (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:cache__add__source (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:stap_system__complete (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:stap_system__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:stap_system__spawn (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:stap_system__fork (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:intern_string (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:client__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:client__end (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

  	perf record -e sdt_stap:client__end -aR sleep 1

  #

From these we're use the two below to run systemtap's test suite:

  # perf record -e sdt_stap:pass2__*,cycles:P make installcheck > /dev/null
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 8 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.691 MB perf.data (39638 samples) ]
  Terminated
  # perf script | grep sdt_stap
              stap 28979 [000] 19424.302660: sdt_stap:pass2__start: (561b9a537de3) arg1=140730364262544
              stap 28979 [000] 19424.333083:   sdt_stap:pass2__end: (561b9a53a9e1) arg1=140730364262544

2f53ae347f perf top: Add --switch-on/--switch-off events
Just like 'perf trace' and 'perf script', should be useful for instance
to only consider samples after the initialization phase of some
workload.

The man page has some examples and considerations about its current
interface, that still doesn't handle the on/off events in a special way,
behaving just like when multiple events are specified, i.e.:

- In non-group mode (when the event list is not enclosed in {}) show a
  a menu to allow choosing which event the user wants to see in the
  histograms browser

- In group mode, be it using {} or asking for --group, show one column
  per event.

Try for instance:

  # perf top -e '{cycles,instructions,probe:icmp_rcv}' --switch-on=probe:icmp_rcv

Replace probe:icmp_rcv, that I put in place using:

  # perf probe icmp_rcv:59

To hit when broadcast packets arrive, with a probe installed after an
initialization phase is over or after some other point of interest, some
garbage collection, etc, and also use --switch-off, for instance, on a
probe installed after said garbage collection is over.

Now think about using this together with 'perf probe' to create custom on/off
events in your app :-)

f90a24171a perf script: Allow specifying event to switch on processing of other events
Sometime we want to only consider events after something happens, so
allow discarding events till such events is found, e.g.:

Record all scheduler tracepoints and the sys_enter_nanosleep syscall
event for the 'sleep 1' workload:

  # perf record -e sched:*,syscalls:sys_enter_nanosleep sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 31 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.032 MB perf.data (10 samples) ]
  #

So we have these events in the generated perf data file:

  # perf evlist
  sched:sched_kthread_stop
  sched:sched_kthread_stop_ret
  sched:sched_waking
  sched:sched_wakeup
  sched:sched_wakeup_new
  sched:sched_switch
  sched:sched_migrate_task
  sched:sched_process_free
  sched:sched_process_exit
  sched:sched_wait_task
  sched:sched_process_wait
  sched:sched_process_fork
  sched:sched_process_exec
  sched:sched_stat_wait
  sched:sched_stat_sleep
  sched:sched_stat_iowait
  sched:sched_stat_blocked
  sched:sched_stat_runtime
  sched:sched_pi_setprio
  sched:sched_move_numa
  sched:sched_stick_numa
  sched:sched_swap_numa
  sched:sched_wake_idle_without_ipi
  syscalls:sys_enter_nanosleep
  # Tip: use 'perf evlist --trace-fields' to show fields for tracepoint events
  #

Then show all of the events that actually took place in this 'perf record' session:

  # perf script
          :13637 13637 [002] 108237.581529:            sched:sched_waking: comm=perf pid=13638 prio=120 target_cpu=001
          :13637 13637 [002] 108237.581537:            sched:sched_wakeup: perf:13638 [120] success=1 CPU:001
           sleep 13638 [001] 108237.581992:      sched:sched_process_exec: filename=/usr/bin/sleep pid=13638 old_pid=13638

  #

           sleep 13638 [001] 108237.582289:      sched:sched_stat_runtime: comm=sleep pid=13638 runtime=578104 [ns] vruntime=202889459556 [ns]
