Currently, 'perf script' uses host unwind methods to parse perf.data
callchain info without taking the target architecture into account, i.e.
assuming the perf.data file was generated on the same machine where the
analysis is being performed. So we get wrong result without any warnings
when unwinding callchains of x86(32-bit) on x86(64-bit) machine.
This patch adds an extra step that checks the target platform before
assigning unwind methods. In later patches in this series, we can use
this info to assign the right unwind methods for supported platforms.
Committer note:
After fixing it to register the local unwinder for live mode tools
('perf trace', 'perf top'), i.e. tools that don't use a perf.data file,
it works as intended and passes the 'perf test unwind' test:
# perf trace -e nanosleep --call dwarf usleep 1
0.328 ( 0.058 ms): usleep/11115 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7fff083fa480) = 0
__nanosleep_nocancel+0x7 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.22.so)

__libc_start_main+0xf0 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.22.so)

# perf test 48

Currently, libunwind operations are fixed, and they are chosen according
to the host architecture. This will lead to a problem that if a thread
is run as x86_32 on a x86_64 machine, perf will use libunwind methods
for x86_64 to parse the callchain and get wrong results.
This patch changes the fixed methods of libunwind operations to be
thread/map related, and each thread can have individual libunwind
operations. Local libunwind methods are registered as default value.

Because of die() at perf_parse_file() a config set was freed in
collect_config(), if failed. But it is natural to free a config set
after collect_config() is done when some problems happened.
So, in case of failure, lastly free a config set at perf_config_set__new()
instead of freeing the config set in collect_config().

To try to, over time, consistently use the IS_ERR() interface instead of
using two return values, i.e. the integer return value for an error and
the pointer address to return the bpf_map->priv pointer.
Also rename it to bpf__priv(), to leave the "get" term for reference
counting.
Noticed while working on using BPF for collecting non-integer syscall
argument payloads (struct sockaddr in calls such as connect(), for
instance), where we need to use BPF maps and thus generalise
bpf__setup_stdout() to connect bpf_output events with maps in a bpf
proggie.

If a config file has wrong key-value pairs, the perf process will be
forcibly terminated by die() at perf_parse_file() called by
perf_config() so terminal settings can be crushed because of unusual
termination.
For example:
If user config file has a wrong value 'red;default' instead of a normal
value like 'red, default' for a key 'colors.top',
# cat ~/.perfconfig
[colors]
medium = red;default # wrong value
and if running sub-command 'top',
# perf top
perf process is dead by force and terminal setting is broken
with a messge like below.
Fatal: bad config file line 2 in /root/.perfconfig
So fix it.
If perf_config() can return on failure without calling die()
at perf_parse_file(), this problem can be solved.
And if a config file has wrong values, show the error message
and then use default config values instead of wrong config values.

Add basic plumbing for TopDown in perf stat
TopDown is intended to replace the frontend cycles idle/ backend cycles
idle metrics in standard perf stat output. These metrics are not
reliable in many workloads, due to out of order effects.
This implements a new --topdown mode in perf stat (similar to
--transaction) that measures the pipe line bottlenecks using
standardized formulas. The measurement can be all done with 5 counters
(one fixed counter)
The result are four metrics:
FrontendBound, BackendBound, BadSpeculation, Retiring
that describe the CPU pipeline behavior on a high level.
The full top down methology has many hierarchical metrics. This
implementation only supports level 1 which can be collected without
multiplexing. A full implementation of top down on top of perf is
available in pmu-tools toplev. (http://github.com/andikleen/pmu-tools)
The current version works on Intel Core CPUs starting with Sandy Bridge,
and Atom CPUs starting with Silvermont. In principle the generic
metrics should be also implementable on other out of order CPUs.
TopDown level 1 uses a set of abstracted metrics which are generic to
out of order CPU cores (although some CPUs may not implement all of
them):
topdown-total-slots Available slots in the pipeline
topdown-slots-issued Slots issued into the pipeline
topdown-slots-retired Slots successfully retired
topdown-fetch-bubbles Pipeline gaps in the frontend
topdown-recovery-bubbles Pipeline gaps during recovery
from misspeculation
These metrics then allow to compute four useful metrics:
FrontendBound, BackendBound, Retiring, BadSpeculation.
Add a new --topdown options to enable events. When --topdown is
specified set up events for all topdown events supported by the kernel.
Add topdown-* as a special case to the event parser, as is needed for
all events containing -.
The actual code to compute the metrics is in follow-on patches.
v2: Use standard sysctl read function.
v3: Move x86 specific code to arch/
v4: Enable --metric-only implicitly for topdown.
v5: Add --single-thread option to not force per core mode
v6: Fix output order of topdown metrics
v7: Allow combining with -d
v8: Remove --single-thread again
v9: Rename functions, adding arch_ and topdown_.
v10: Expand man page and describe TopDown better

There's a display inconsistency when there are multiple tracepoint
events, some of which have the 'call-graph' config option set but the
first one hasn't, i.e. the whole logic for call graph processing is
enabled only if the first tracepoint event has call-graph set.
For instance, if we record signal_deliver with call-graph and
signal_generate without:
$ perf record -g -a -e signal:signal_deliver -e signal:signal_generate/call-graph=no/
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (2 samples) ]
$ perf script
kworker/u2:1 13 [000] 6563.875949: signal:signal_generate: sig=2 errno=0 code=128 comm=perf pid=1313 grp=1 res=0 ff61cc __send_signal+0x3ec ([kernel.kallsyms])
perf 1313 [000] 6563.877584: signal:signal_deliver: sig=2 errno=0 code=128 sa_handler=43115e sa_flags=14000000
7ffff314 get_signal+0x80007f0023a4 ([kernel.kallsyms])
7fffe358 do_signal+0x80007f002028 ([kernel.kallsyms])
7fffa5e8 exit_to_usermode_loop+0x80007f002053 ([kernel.kallsyms])
...
Then we exchange the order of these two events in commandline, and keep
signal_generate without call-graph.
$ perf record -g -a -e signal:signal_generate/call-graph=no/ -e signal:signal_deliver
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (2 samples) ]
$ perf script
kworker/u2:2 1314 [000] 6933.353060: signal:signal_generate: sig=2 errno=0 code=128 comm=perf pid=1321 grp=1 res=0
perf 1321 [000] 6933.353872: signal:signal_deliver: sig=2 errno=0 code=128 sa_handler=43115e sa_flags=14000000
This time, the callchain of the event signal_deliver disappeared. The
problem is caused by that perf only checks for the first evsel in evlist
and decides if callchain should be printed.
This patch traverses all evsels in evlist to see if any of them have
callchains, and shows the right result:
$ perf script
kworker/u2:2 1314 [000] 6933.353060: signal:signal_generate: sig=2 errno=0 code=128 comm=perf pid=1321 grp=1 res=0 ff61cc __send_signal+0x3ec ([kernel.kallsyms])

Add declarations for the events needed for topdown to the
Intel big core CPUs starting with Sandy Bridge. We need
to report different values if HyperThreading is on or off.
The only thing this patch does is to export some events
in sysfs.
topdown level 1 uses a set of abstracted metrics which
are generic to out of order CPU cores (although some
CPUs may not implement all of them):
topdown-total-slots Available slots in the pipeline
topdown-slots-issued Slots issued into the pipeline
topdown-slots-retired Slots successfully retired
topdown-fetch-bubbles Pipeline gaps in the frontend
topdown-recovery-bubbles Pipeline gaps during recovery
from misspeculation
A slot is a single operation in the CPU pipe line.
These metrics then allow to compute four useful metrics:
FrontendBound, BackendBound, Retiring, BadSpeculation.
The formulas to compute the metrics are generic, they
only change based on the availability on the abstracted
input values.
The kernel declares the events supported by the current
CPU and their scaling factors (such as the pipeline width)
and perf stat then computes the formulas based on the
available metrics. This is similar how existing
perf metrics, such as TSC metrics or IPC, are implemented.
This abstracts all CPU pipe line specific knowledge in the
kernel driver, but still avoids the need for larger scale perf
interface changes.
For HyperThreading the any bit is needed to get accurate
values when both threads are executing. This implies that
the events can only be collected as root or with
perf_event_paranoid=-1 for now.
The basic scheme is based on the following paper:
Yasin, A Top Down Method for Performance analysis and Counter architecture ISPASS14 (pdf available via google)

For SMT specific workarounds it is useful to know if SMT is active
on any online CPU in the system. This currently requires a loop
over all online CPUs.
Add a global variable that is updated with the maximum number
of smt threads on any CPU on online/offline, and use it for
topology_max_smt_threads()
The single call is easier to use than a loop.

Some platforms, e.g. Knights Landing, use a common PCI device ID for
multiple instances of an uncore PMU device type. So it is impossible to
locate the specific instances only by PCI device ID.
The current code specially handles Knights Landing by arbitrarily pointing
an instance to an unused uncore box. However, we still have no idea
which uncore device is mapped to which box.
Furthermore, there could be more platforms which use a common PCI device ID
for uncore devices. We have to specially handle them one by one.
This patch records full device information (slot, func, and device ID)
in id_table[]. So the probe function can point the instance to a specific
uncore box by checking the full device information.

This patch fixes an issue which was introduced by commit:
91a612eea9 ("perf/core: Fix dynamic interrupt throttle")
... which commit unconditionally sets the perf_sample_allowed_ns value
to !0. But that could trigger a bug in the following corner case:
The user can disable the dynamic interrupt throttle mechanism by setting
perf_cpu_time_max_percent to 0. Then they change perf_event_max_sample_rate.
For this case, the mechanism will be enabled implicitly, because
perf_sample_allowed_ns becomes !0 - which is not what we want.
This patch only updates perf_sample_allowed_ns when the dynamic
interrupt throttle mechanism is enabled.

The perf_event_aux() function iterates all PMUs and all events in
their respective per-CPU contexts to find the events to deliver
side-band records to.
For example, the brk test case in lkp triggers many mmap() operations,
which, if we're also running perf, results in many perf_event_aux()
invocations.
If we enable uncore PMU support (even when uncore events are not used),
dozens of uncore PMUs will be iterated, which can significantly
decrease brk_test's throughput.
For example, the brk throughput:
without uncore PMUs: 2647573 ops_per_sec
with uncore PMUs: 1768444 ops_per_sec
... a 33% reduction.
To get at the per-CPU events that need side-band records, this patch
puts these events on a per-CPU list, this avoids iterating the PMUs
and any events that do not need side-band records.
Per task events are unchanged to avoid extra overhead on the context
switch paths.

max-stack for all events for which callchains were requested:
$ sysctl kernel.perf_event_max_stack
kernel.perf_event_max_stack = 127
Now this patch introduces a way to configure this per event, i.e. this
becomes possible:
$ perf record -e sched:*/max-stack=2/ -e block:*/max-stack=10/ -a
allowing finer tuning of how much buffer space callchains use.
This uses an u16 from the reserved space at the end, leaving another
u16 for future use.
There has been interest in even finer tuning, namely to control the
max stack for kernel and userspace callchains separately. Further
discussion is needed, we may for instance use the remaining u16 for
that and when it is present, assume that the sample_max_stack introduced
in this patch applies for the kernel, and the u16 left is used for
limiting the userspace callchain. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Infrastructure:
- Adopt get_main_thread from db-export.c (Andi Kleen)
- More prep work for backward ring buffer support (Wang Nan)
- Prep work for supporting SDT (Statically Defined Tracing)
tracepoints (Masami Hiramatsu)
- Add arch/*/include/generated/ to .gitignore (Taeung Song)

Use path/to/bin/buildid/elf instead of path/to/bin/buildid
to store corresponding elf binary.
This also stores vdso in buildid/vdso, kallsyms in buildid/kallsyms.
Note that the existing caches are not updated until user adds
or updates the cache. Anyway, if there is the old style build-id
cache it falls back to use it. (IOW, it is backward compatible)

Cleanup the code flow of dso__find_kallsyms() to remove redundant
checking code and add some comment for readability.

Introduce filename__readable to check readability by opening the file
directly. Since the access(R_OK) just checks the readability based on
real UID/GID, it is ignored that the effective UID/GID and capabilities
for some special file (e.g. /proc/kcore).
filename__readable() directly opens given file with O_RDONLY so that the
kernel checks it by effective UID/GID and capabilities.

Before this patch there's no way to pass arguments to fdarray__filter's
call back function.
This improvement will be used by 'perf record' to support unmapping ring
buffer for both main evlist and overwrite evlist. Without this patch
there's no way to track overwrite evlist from 'struct fdarray'.
