933f82ff72 perf pmu: Use pmu_events table to create aliases
At run time (when 'perf' is starting up), locate the specific table of
PMU events that corresponds to the current CPU. Using that table, create
aliases for the each of the PMU events in the CPU. The use these aliases
to parse the user specified perf event.

In short this would allow the user to specify events using their aliases
rather than raw event codes.

Based on input and some earlier patches from Andi Kleen, Jiri Olsa.

ffa517adf6 perf tools: Introduce stat perf.data header feature
Introducing the 'stat' feature to mark a perf.data as created by  the
'perf stat record' command. It contains no data.

It's needed so that the report tools (report/script) can differentiate
sampling data from counting data, because they need to be treated in a
different way.

In the future it might be used to store the version of the stat storage
system used.

ffe777254c perf tools: Add event_update user level event
It'll serve as a base event for additional event attributes details,
that are not part of the attr event.

At the moment this event is just a dummy one without any specific
functionality. The type value will distinguish the update event details.
It'll come in the following patches.

The idea for this event is to be extensible for any update that the
event might need in the future.

2bb00d2f95 perf tools: Store the cpu socket and core ids in the perf.data header
This patch stores the cpu socket_id and core_id in a perf.data header,
and reads them into the perf_env struct when processing perf.data files.

The changes modifies the CPU_TOPOLOGY section, making sure it is
backward/forward compatible.

The patch checks the section size before reading the core and socket ids.

It never reads data crossing the section boundary.  An old perf binary
without this patch can also correctly read the perf.data from a new perf
with this patch.

Because the new info is added at the end of the cpu_topology section, an
old perf tool ignores the extra data.

Examples:

1. New perf with this patch read perf.data from an old perf without the
   patch:

  $ perf_new report -i perf_old.data --header-only -I
  ......
  # sibling threads : 33
  # sibling threads : 34
  # sibling threads : 35
  # Core ID and Socket ID information is not available
  # node0 meminfo  : total = 32823872 kB, free = 29315548 kB
  # node0 cpu list : 0-17,36-53
  ......

2. Old perf without the patch reads perf.data from a new perf with the
   patch:

  $ perf_old report -i perf_new.data --header-only -I
  ......
  # sibling threads : 33
  # sibling threads : 34
  # sibling threads : 35
  # node0 meminfo  : total = 32823872 kB, free = 29190932 kB
  # node0 cpu list : 0-17,36-53
  ......

3. New perf read new perf.data:

  $ perf_new report -i perf_new.data --header-only -I
  ......
  # sibling threads : 33
  # sibling threads : 34
  # sibling threads : 35
  # CPU 0: Core ID 0, Socket ID 0
  # CPU 1: Core ID 1, Socket ID 0
  ......
  # CPU 61: Core ID 10, Socket ID 1
  # CPU 62: Core ID 11, Socket ID 1
  # CPU 63: Core ID 16, Socket ID 1
  # node0 meminfo  : total = 32823872 kB, free = 29190932 kB
  # node0 cpu list : 0-17,36-53

d2709c7ce4 perf: Make perf build for x86 with UAPI disintegration applied
Make perf build for x86 once the UAPI disintegration patches for that arch
have been applied by adding the appropriate -I flags - in the right order -
and then converting some #includes that use ../.. notation to find main kernel
headerfiles to use <asm/foo.h> and <linux/foo.h> instead.

Note that -Iarch/foo/include/uapi is present _before_ -Iarch/foo/include.
This makes sure we get the userspace version of the pt_regs struct.  Ideally,
we wouldn't have the latter -I flag at all, but unfortunately we want
asm/svm.h and asm/vmx.h in builtin-kvm.c and these aren't part of the UAPI -
at least not for x86.  I wonder if the bits outside of the __KERNEL__ guards
*should* be transferred there.

I note also that perf seems to do its dependency handling manually by listing
all the header files it might want to use in LIB_H in the Makefile.  Can this
be changed to use -MD?

Note that to do make this work, we need to export and UAPI disintegrate
linux/hw_breakpoint.h, which I think should've been exported previously so that
perf can access the bits.  We have to do this in the same patch to maintain
bisectability.

bcf6edcd6f perf kvm: Events analysis tool
Add 'perf kvm stat' support to analyze kvm vmexit/mmio/ioport smartly

Usage:
- kvm stat
  run a command and gather performance counter statistics, it is the alias of
  perf stat

- trace kvm events:
  perf kvm stat record, or, if other tracepoints are interesting as well, we
  can append the events like this:
  perf kvm stat record -e timer:* -a

  If many guests are running, we can track the specified guest by using -p or
  --pid, -a is used to track events generated by all guests.

- show the result:
  perf kvm stat report

The output example is following:
13005
13059

total 2 guests are running on the host

Then, track the guest whose pid is 13059:
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.253 MB perf.data.guest (~11065 samples) ]

7dbf4dcfe2 perf tools: Back [vdso] DSO with real data
Storing data for VDSO shared object, because we need it for the post
unwind processing.

The VDSO shared object is same for all process on a running system, so
it makes no difference when we store it inside the tracer - perf.

When [vdso] map memory is hit, we retrieve [vdso] DSO image and store it
into temporary file.

During the build-id processing phase, the [vdso] DSO image is stored in
build-id db, and build-id reference is made inside perf.data. The
build-id vdso file object is called '[vdso]'. We don't use temporary
file name which gets removed when record is finished.

During report phase the vdso build-id object is treated as any other
build-id DSO object.

Adding following API for vdso object:

  bool is_vdso_map(const char *filename)
    - returns true if the filename matches vdso map name

  struct dso *vdso__dso_findnew(struct list_head *head)
    - find/create proper vdso DSO object

  vdso__exit(void)
    - removes temporary VDSO image if there's any

This change makes backtrace dwarf post unwind possible from [vdso] maps.

Following output is current report of [vdso] sample dwarf backtrace:

  # Overhead  Command      Shared Object                         Symbol
  # ........  .......  .................  .............................
  #

Following output is new report of [vdso] sample dwarf backtrace:

50a9667c93 perf tools: Add pmu mappings to header information
With dynamic pmu allocation there are also dynamically assigned pmu ids.
These ids are used in event->attr.type to describe the pmu to be used
for that event. The information is available in sysfs, e.g:

 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/breakpoint/type: 5
 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/type: 4
 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_fetch/type: 6
 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_op/type: 7
 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/software/type: 1
 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/tracepoint/type: 2

These mappings are needed to know which samples belong to which pmu.  If
a pmu is added dynamically like for ibs_fetch or ibs_op the type value
may vary.

Now, when decoding samples from perf.data this information in sysfs
might be no longer available or may have changed. We need to store it in
perf.data. Using the header for this. Now the header information created
with perf report contains an additional section looking like this:

 # pmu mappings: ibs_op = 7, ibs_fetch = 6, cpu = 4, breakpoint = 5, tracepoint = 2, software = 1

f4d834367c perf tools: Fix type for evsel->ids and add size check for ids
Use same type for ids everywhere.

In case of writing to perf.data the size is u32. In pipe mode it is
limited to header.size (less than u16). Adding a size check here.

Size overflow due to casting shouldn't actually happen in practice, but
during development this may cause type missmatch warninngs/errors,
unifying types avoids this.

330aa675b4 perf record: Add HEADER_BRANCH_STACK tag
This patch adds a new feature bit, namely,
HEADER_BRANCH_STACK.  When present, it indicates
that sample records may contain branch stack.

This could be useful to a viewer to switch to
branch mode without having to parse all the
samples or without a specific cmdline option.

This will be used in a subsequent patch to
enhance perf report with branch stacks.

781ba9d2ed perf record: Make feature initialization generic
Loop over all features to enable it instead of explicitly enabling every
single feature. Reducing duplicate code and making it more robust to
later changes e.g. when adding more features.

d20deb64e0 perf tools: Pass tool context in the the perf_event_ops functions
So that we don't need to have that many globals.

Next steps will remove the 'session' pointer, that in most cases is
not needed.

Then we can rename perf_event_ops to 'perf_tool' that better describes
this class hierarchy.

fbe96f29ce perf tools: Make perf.data more self-descriptive (v8)
The goal of this patch is to include more information about the host
environment into the perf.data so it is more self-descriptive. Overtime,
profiles are captured on various machines and it becomes hard to track
what was recorded, on what machine and when.

This patch provides a way to solve this by extending the perf.data file
with basic information about the host machine. To add those extensions,
we leverage the feature bits capabilities of the perf.data format.  The
change is backward compatible with existing perf.data files.

We define the following useful new extensions:
 - HEADER_HOSTNAME: the hostname
 - HEADER_OSRELEASE: the kernel release number
 - HEADER_ARCH: the hw architecture
 - HEADER_CPUDESC: generic CPU description
 - HEADER_NRCPUS: number of online/avail cpus
 - HEADER_CMDLINE: perf command line
 - HEADER_VERSION: perf version
 - HEADER_TOPOLOGY: cpu topology
 - HEADER_EVENT_DESC: full event description (attrs)
 - HEADER_CPUID: easy-to-parse low level CPU identication

The small granularity for the entries is to make it easier to extend
without breaking backward compatiblity. Many entries are provided as
ASCII strings.

Perf report/script have been modified to print the basic information as
easy-to-parse ASCII strings. Extended information about CPU and NUMA
topology may be requested with the -I option.

Thanks to David Ahern for reviewing and testing the many versions of
this patch.

a91e5431d5 perf session: Use evlist/evsel for managing perf.data attributes
So that we can reuse things like the id to attr lookup routine
(perf_evlist__id2evsel) that uses a hash table instead of the linear
lookup done in the older perf_header_attr routines, etc.

Also to make evsels/evlist more pervasive an API, simplyfing using the
emerging perf lib.
