perf record: Fix priv level with branch sampling for paranoid=2
Now that the default perf_events paranoid level is set to 2, a regular user cannot monitor kernel level activity anymore. As such, with the following cmdline:
$ perf record -e cycles date
The perf tool first tries cycles:uk but then falls back to cycles:u as can be seen in the perf report --header-only output:
cmdline : /export/hda3/tmp/perf.tip record -e cycles ls event : name = cycles:u, , id = { 436186, ... }
This is okay as long as there is way to learn the priv level was changed internally by the tool.
But consider a similar example:
$ perf record -b -e cycles date Error: You may not have permission to collect stats.
Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid, which controls use of the performance events system by unprivileged users (without CAP_SYS_ADMIN). ...
Why is that treated differently given that the branch sampling inherits the priv level of the first event in this case, i.e., cycles:u? It turns out that the branch sampling code is more picky and also checks exclude_hv.
In the fallback path, perf record is setting exclude_kernel = 1, but it does not change exclude_hv. This does not seem to match the restriction imposed by paranoid = 2.
This patch fixes the problem by forcing exclude_hv = 1 in the fallback for paranoid=2. With this in place:
$ perf record -b -e cycles date cmdline : /export/hda3/tmp/perf.tip record -b -e cycles ls event : name = cycles:u, , id = { 436847, ... }
And the command succeeds as expected.
V2 fix a white space.
Committer testing:
After aplying the patch we get:
[acme@quaco ~]$ perf record -b -e cycles date WARNING: Kernel address maps (/proc/{kallsyms,modules}) are restricted, check /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict and /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid.
Samples in kernel functions may not be resolved if a suitable vmlinux file is not found in the buildid cache or in the vmlinux path.
Samples in kernel modules won't be resolved at all.
If some relocation was applied (e.g. kexec) symbols may be misresolved even with a suitable vmlinux or kallsyms file.
Mon 23 Sep 2019 11:00:59 AM -03 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.005 MB perf.data (14 samples) ] [acme@quaco ~]$ perf evlist -v cycles:u: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD|BRANCH_STACK, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, exclude_kernel: 1, exclude_hv: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1, ksymbol: 1, bpf_event: 1, branch_sample_type: ANY [acme@quaco ~]$
That warning about restricted kernel maps will be suppressed in a follow up patch, as perf_event_attr.exclude_kernel is set, i.e. no samples for the kernel will be taken and thus no need for those maps.

perf tools: Add aux-output config term
Expose the aux_output attribute flag to the user to configure, by adding a config term 'aux-output'. For events that support it, selection of 'aux-output' causes the generation of AUX records instead of event records. This requires that an AUX area event is also provided.
