Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

New, user visible features:

- Add --buildid-all option to 'perf record' to avoid processing
samples, just collecting build-ids for _all_ the DSOs that appears
in PERF_RECORD_MMAP records (Namhyung Kim)

- Add some more usage tips to appear in the hists browser
(top & report) (Namhyung Kim, Andi Kleen)

- Fix mmap2 event allocation in synthesize code, where we were
allocating space just for PERF_RECORD_MMAP, the older variant,
which could lead to corner case problems (Wang Nan)

Infrastructure fixes:

- Make list.h self-sufficient, removing one more reference to
kernel headers that lead to recent breakage when some rculist
change was made in the kernel sources. (Josh Poimboeuf)

Add missing NORETURN define for parse-options.h in
tools/lib/subcmd (Josh Poimboeuf)

- Fallback to srcdir/Documentation/ when not finding tips.txt
elsewhere (Namhyung Kim)

- Core code improvements. (Peter Zijlstra.)

- Event filter, LBR and PEBS fixes. (Stephane Eranian)

- AMD cache events fix. (Vince Weaver)

Tons of tooling changes:

- Show random perf tool tips in the 'perf report' bottom line
(Namhyung Kim)

- perf report now defaults to --group if the perf.data file has
grouped events, try it with:

# perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}' -a sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.093 MB perf.data (1247 samples) ]
# perf report
# Samples: 1K of event 'anon group { cycles, instructions }'
# Event count (approx.): 1955219195

- Introduce the 'perf stat record/report' workflow:

Generate perf.data files from 'perf stat', to tap into the
scripting capabilities perf has instead of defining a 'perf stat'
specific scripting support to calculate event ratios, etc.

Simple example:

$ perf stat record -e cycles usleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':

1,134,996 cycles

0.000670644 seconds time elapsed

$ perf stat report

Performance counter stats for '/home/acme/bin/perf stat record -e cycles usleep 1':

1,134,996 cycles

0.000670644 seconds time elapsed

$

It generates PERF_RECORD_ userspace records to store the details:

$ perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD
0xf0 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_THREAD_MAP nr: 1 thread: 27637
0x118 [0x12]: PERF_RECORD_CPU_MAP nr: 1 cpu: 65535
0x12a [0x40]: PERF_RECORD_STAT_CONFIG
0x16a [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_STAT
-1 -1 0x19a [0x40]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP -1/0: [0xffffffff81000000(0x1f000000) @ 0xffffffff81000000]: x [kernel.kallsyms]_text
0x1da [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_STAT_ROUND
[acme@ssdandy linux]$

An effort was made to make perf.data files generated like this to
not generate cryptic messages when processed by older tools.

The 'perf script' bits need rebasing, will go up later.

- Make command line options always available, even when they depend
on some feature being enabled, warning the user about use of such
options (Wang Nan)

- Support hw breakpoint events (mem:0xAddress) in the default output
mode in 'perf script' (Wang Nan)

- Fixes and improvements for supporting annotating ARM binaries,
support ARM call and jump instructions, more work needed to have
arch specific stuff separated into tools/perf/arch/*/annotate/
(Russell King)

- Add initial 'perf config' command, for now just with a --list
command to the contents of the configuration file in use and a
basic man page describing its format, commands for doing edits and
detailed documentation are being reviewed and proof-read. (Taeung
Song)

- Allows BPF scriptlets specify arguments to be fetched using DWARF
info, using a prologue generated at compile/build time (He Kuang,
Wang Nan)

- Allow attaching BPF scriptlets to module symbols (Wang Nan)

- Allow attaching BPF scriptlets to userspace code using uprobe (Wang
Nan)

- BPF programs now can specify 'perf probe' tunables via its section
name, separating key=val values using semicolons (Wang Nan)

Testing some of these new BPF features:

Use case: get callchains when receiving SSL packets, filter then in the
kernel, at arbitrary place.

#define SEC(NAME) __attribute__((section(NAME), used))

#

- Use 'perf probe' various options to list functions, see what
variables can be collected at any given point, experiment first
collecting without a filter, then filter, use it together with
'perf trace', 'perf top', with or without callchains, if it
explodes, please tell us!

- Introduce a new callchain mode: "folded", that will list per line
representations of all callchains for a give histogram entry,
facilitating 'perf report' output processing by other tools, such
as Brendan Gregg's flamegraph tools (Namhyung Kim)

E.g:

# perf report | grep -v ^# | head
18.37% 0.00% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] cpu_startup_entry
|
---cpu_startup_entry
|
|--12.07%--start_secondary
|
--6.30%--rest_init
start_kernel
x86_64_start_reservations
x86_64_start_kernel
#

Becomes, in "folded" mode:

# perf report -g folded | grep -v ^# | head -5
18.37% 0.00% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] cpu_startup_entry
12.07% cpu_startup_entry;start_secondary
6.30% cpu_startup_entry;rest_init;start_kernel;x86_64_start_reservations;x86_64_start_kernel
16.90% 0.00% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] call_cpuidle

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

New features:

- Allow using trace events fields as sort order keys, making 'perf evlist --trace_fields'
show those, and then the user can select a subset and use like:

perf top -e sched:sched_switch -s prev_comm,next_comm

That works as well in 'perf report' when handling files containing
tracepoints.

The default when just tracepoint events are found in a perf.data file is to
format it like ftrace, using the libtraceevent formatters, plugins, etc (Namhyung Kim)

- Add support in 'perf script' to process 'perf stat record' generated files,
culminating in a python perf script that calculates CPI (Cycles per
Instruction) (Jiri Olsa)

- Show random perf tool tips in the 'perf report' bottom line (Namhyung Kim)

- perf report now defaults to --group if the perf.data file has grouped events, try it with:

# perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}' -a sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.093 MB perf.data (1247 samples) ]

User visible fixes:

- Coect data mmaps so that the DWARF unwinder can handle usecases needing them,
like softice (Jiri Olsa)

- Decay callchains in fractal mode, fixing up cases where 'perf top -g' would
show entries with more than 100% (Namhyung Kim)

Infrastructure changes:

- Sync tools/lib with the lib/ in the kernel sources for find_bit.c and
move bitmap.[ch] from tools/perf/util/ to tools/lib/ (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- No need to set attr.sample_freq in some 'perf test' entries that only
want to deal with PERF_RECORD_ meta-events, improve a bit error output
for CQM test (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fix python binding build, adding some missing object files now required
due to cpumap using find_bit stuff (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- tools/build improvemnts (Jiri Olsa)

- Add more files to cscope/ctags databases (Jiri Olsa)

- Do not show 'trace' in 'perf help' if it is not compiled in (Jiri Olsa)

- Make perf_evlist__open() open evsels with their cpus and threads,
like perf record does, making them consistent (Adrian Hunter)

- Fix pmu snapshot initialization bug (Stephane Eranian)

- Add missing headers in perf's MANIFEST (Wang Nan)

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-2.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core improvements from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

User visible changes:

- Add record.build-id config option to 'perf record', to allow configuring
in the ~/.perfconfig file if and how build-ids should be processed, allowing
a permanent setting for options such as -B and -N: (Namhyung Kim)

$ perf record -h -B -N

Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

-B, --no-buildid do not collect buildids in perf.data
-N, --no-buildid-cache do not update the buildid cache

$

Infrastructure changes:

- Move code for options parsing and subcommand handling from tools/perf/
to tools/lib/subcmd/, so that it can be used by other tools/ living
utilities (Josh Poimboeuf)

perf tools: Provide subcmd configuration at runtime

Create init functions for exec_cmd.c and pager.c. This allows their
configuration to be specified at runtime so they can be split out into a
separate library which can be used by other programs. Their
configuration is stored in a shared subcmd_config struct.
