If one uses:
# perf trace --min-stack 16
Then it implicitly means that callgraphs should be enabled, and the best
option in terms of widespread availability is "dwarf".
Further work needed to choose a better alternative, LBR, in capable

Now, one can print the call chain for every encountered sys_exit event,
e.g.:
$ perf trace -e nanosleep --call-graph dwarf path/to/ex_sleep
1005.757 (1000.090 ms): ex_sleep/13167 nanosleep(...) = 0
syscall_slow_exit_work ([kernel.kallsyms])
syscall_return_slowpath ([kernel.kallsyms])
int_ret_from_sys_call ([kernel.kallsyms])
__nanosleep (/usr/lib/libc-2.23.so)
[unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.6.0)
QThread::sleep (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.6.0)
main (path/to/ex_sleep)
__libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc-2.23.so)
_start (path/to/ex_sleep)
Note that it is advised to increase the number of mmap pages to prevent
event losses when using this new feature. Often, adding `-m 10M` to the
`perf trace` invocation is enough.
This feature is also available in strace when built with libunwind via
`strace -k`. Performance wise, this solution is much better:
$ time find path/to/linux &> /dev/null
real 0m0.051s
user 0m0.013s
sys 0m0.037s
$ time perf trace -m 800M --call-graph dwarf find path/to/linux &> /dev/null
real 0m2.624s
user 0m1.203s
sys 0m1.333s
$ time strace -k find path/to/linux &> /dev/null
real 0m35.398s
user 0m10.403s
sys 0m23.173s
Note that it is currently not possible to configure the print output.
Adding such a feature, similar to what is available in `perf script` via
its `--fields` knob can be added later on.

When using 'perf script' to look at PT traces it is often useful to
ignore the initialization code at the beginning.
On larger traces which may have many millions of instructions in
initialization code doing that in a pipeline can be very slow, with perf
script spending a lot of CPU time calling printf and writing data.
This patch adds an extension to the --itrace argument that skips 'n'
events (instructions, branches or transactions) at the beginning. This
is much more efficient.
v2:
Add support for BTS (Adrian Hunter)

Add a new mode to only print metrics. Sometimes we don't care about the
raw values, just want the computed metrics. This allows more compact
printing, so with -I each sample is only a single line. This also
allows easier plotting and processing with other tools.
The main target is with using --topdown, but it also works with -T and
standard perf stat. A few metrics are not supported.
To avoiding having to hardcode all the metrics in the code it uses a two
pass approach: first compute dummy metrics and only print the headers in
the print_metric callback. Then use the callback to print the actual
values.
There are some additional changes in the stat printout code to handle
all metrics being on a single line.
One issue is that the column code doesn't know in advance what events
are not supported by the CPU, and it would be hard to find out as this
could change based on dynamic conditions. That causes empty columns in
some cases.
The output can be fairly wide, often you may need more than 80 columns.
Example:
% perf stat -a -I 1000 --metric-only
1.001452803 frontend cycles idle insn per cycle stalled cycles per insn branch-misses of all branches
1.001452803 158.91% 0.66 2.39 2.92%
2.002192321 180.63% 0.76 2.08 2.96%

This patch adds a --jit/-j option to perf inject.
This options injects MMAP records into the perf.data file to cover the
jitted code mmaps. It also emits ELF images for each function in the
jidump file. Those images are created where the jitdump file is. The
MMAP records point to that location as well.
Typical flow:
$ perf record -k mono -- java -agentpath:libpjvmti.so java_class
$ perf inject --jit -i perf.data -o perf.data.jitted
$ perf report -i perf.data.jitted
Note that jitdump.h support is not limited to Java, it works with any
jitted environment modified to emit the jitdump file format, include
those where code can be jitted multiple times and moved around.
The jitdump.h format is adapted from the Oprofile project.
The genelf.c (ELF binary generation) depends on MD5 hash encoding for
the buildid. To enable this, libssl-dev must be installed. If not, then
genelf.c defaults to using urandom to generate the buildid, which is not
ideal. The Makefile auto-detects the presence on libssl-dev.
This version mmaps the jitdump file to create a marker MMAP record in
the perf.data file. The marker is used to detect jitdump and cause perf
inject to inject the jitted mmaps and generate ELF images for jitted
functions.
In V8, the following fixes and changes were made among other things:
- the jidump header format include a new flags field to be used
to carry information about the configuration of the runtime agent.
Contributed by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>
- Fix mmap pgoff: MMAP event pgoff must be the offset within the ELF file
at which the code resides.
Contributed by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>
- Fix ELF virtual addresses: perf tools expect the ELF virtual addresses of dynamic
objects to match the file offset.
Contributed by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>
- JIT MMAP injection does not obey finished_round semantics. JIT MMAP injection injects all
MMAP events in one go, so it does not obey finished_round semantics, so drop the
finished_round events from the output perf.data file.

USe 'jump_arrows' config name instead of 'code' on 'colors' section.
'colors.code' config is only for jump arrows on assembly code listings
i.e.
│ ┌──jmp 1333
│ │ xchg %ax,%ax
│ │ mov %r15,%r10
│ └─→cmp %r15,%r14
But this config name seems unfit.
'jump_arrows' is more descriptive than 'code'.

The --buildid-all option is to record build-id of all DSOs in the file.
It might be very costly to postprocess samples to find which DSO hits.

Currently perf report only shows a help message "For a higher level
overview, try: perf report --sort comm,dso" unconditionally (even if
the sort keys were used). Add more help tips and show randomly.
Load tips from ${prefix}/share/doc/perf-tip/tips.txt file.

Allowing to override record aggr_mode. It's possible to use perf stat
like:
$ perf stat report -A
$ perf stat report --per-core
$ perf stat report --per-socket
To customize the recorded aggregate mode regardless what was used during
the stat record command.
