Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.6-1-2023-09-05' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools

Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
"perf tools maintainership:

- Add git information for perf-tools and perf-tools-next trees and
branches to the MAINTAINERS file. That is where development now
takes place and myself and Namhyung Kim have write access, more
people to come as we emulate other maintainer groups.

perf record:

- Record kernel data maps when 'perf record --data' is used, so that
global variables can be resolved and used in tools that do data
profiling.

perf trace:

- Remove the old, experimental support for BPF events in which a .c
file was passed as an event: "perf trace -e hello.c" to then get
compiled and loaded.

The only known usage for that, that shipped with the kernel as an
example for such events, augmented the raw_syscalls tracepoints and
was converted to a libbpf skeleton, reusing all the user space
components and the BPF code connected to the syscalls.

In the end just the way to glue the BPF part and the user space
type beautifiers changed, now being performed by libbpf skeletons.

The next step is to use BTF to do pretty printing of all syscall
types, as discussed with Alan Maguire and others.

Now, on a perf built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 we get most if not all
path/filenames/strings, some of the networking data structures,
perf_event_attr, etc, i.e. systemwide tracing of nanosleep calls
and perf_event_open syscalls while 'perf stat' runs 'sleep' for 5
seconds:

perf annotate:

- Building with binutils' libopcode now is opt-in (BUILD_NONDISTRO=1)
for licensing reasons, and we missed a build test on
tools/perf/tests makefile.

Since we now default to NDEBUG=1, we ended up segfaulting when
building with BUILD_NONDISTRO=1 because a needed initialization
routine was being "error checked" via an assert.

Fix it by explicitly checking the result and aborting instead if it
fails.

We better back propagate the error, but at least 'perf annotate' on
samples collected for a BPF program is back working when perf is
built with BUILD_NONDISTRO=1.

perf report/top:

- Add back TUI hierarchy mode header, that is seen when using 'perf
report/top --hierarchy'.

- Fix the number of entries for 'e' key in the TUI that was
preventing navigation of lines when expanding an entry.

perf report/script:

- Support cross platform register handling, allowing a perf.data file
collected on one architecture to have registers sampled correctly
displayed when analysis tools such as 'perf report' and 'perf
script' are used on a different architecture.

- Fix handling of event attributes in pipe mode, i.e. when one uses:

perf record -o - | perf report -i -

When no perf.data files are used.

- Handle files generated via pipe mode with a version of perf and
then read also via pipe mode with a different version of perf,
where the event attr record may have changed, use the record size
field to properly support this version mismatch.

perf probe:

- Accessing global variables from uprobes isn't supported, make the
error message state that instead of stating that some minimal
kernel version is needed to have that feature. This seems just a
tool limitation, the kernel probably has all that is needed.

perf tests:

- Fix a reference count related leak in the dlfilter v0 API where the
result of a thread__find_symbol_fb() is not matched with an
addr_location__exit() to drop the reference counts of the resolved
components (machine, thread, map, symbol, etc). Add a dlfilter test
to make sure that doesn't regresses.

- Lots of fixes for the 'perf test' written in shell script related
to problems found with the shellcheck utility.

- Fixes for 'perf test' shell scripts testing features enabled when
perf is built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1, such as 'perf stat' bpf
counters.

- Add perf record sample filtering test, things like the following
example, that gets implemented as a BPF filter attached to the
event:

# perf record -e task-clock -c 10000 --filter 'ip < 0xffffffff00000000'

- Improve the way the task_analyzer test checks if libtraceevent is
linked, using 'perf version --build-options' instead of the more
expensinve 'perf record -e "sched:sched_switch"'.

- Add support for riscv in the mmap-basic test. (This went as well
via the RiscV tree, same contents).

libperf:

- Implement riscv mmap support (This went as well via the RiscV tree,
same contents).

perf script:

- New tool that converts perf.data files to the firefox profiler
format so that one can use the visualizer at
https://profiler.firefox.com/. Done by Anup Sharma as part of this
year's Google Summer of Code.

One can generate the output and upload it to the web interface but
Anup also automated everything:

perf script gecko -F 99 -a sleep 60

- Support syscall name parsing on arm64.

- Print "cgroup" field on the same line as "comm".

perf bench:

- Add new 'uprobe' benchmark to measure the overhead of uprobes
with/without BPF programs attached to it.

- breakpoints are not available on power9, skip that test.

perf stat:

- Add #num_cpus_online literal to be used in 'perf stat' metrics, and
add this extra 'perf test' check that exemplifies its purpose:

TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus_online",
expr__parse(&num_cpus_online, ctx, "#num_cpus_online") == 0);
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus", expr__parse(&num_cpus, ctx, "#num_cpus") == 0);
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus >= #num_cpus_online", num_cpus >= num_cpus_online);

Miscellaneous:

- Improve tool startup time by lazily reading PMU, JSON, sysfs data.

- Improve error reporting in the parsing of events, passing YYLTYPE
to error routines, so that the output can show were the parsing
error was found.

- Add 'perf test' entries to check the parsing of events
improvements.

- Fix various leak for things detected by -fsanitize=address, mostly
things that would be freed at tool exit, including:

- Free evsel->filter on the destructor.

- Allow tools to register a thread->priv destructor and use it in
'perf trace'.

- Free evsel->priv in 'perf trace'.

- Free string returned by synthesize_perf_probe_point() when the
caller fails to do all it needs.

- Adjust various compiler options to not consider errors some
warnings when building with broken headers found in things like
python, flex, bison, as we otherwise build with -Werror. Some for
gcc, some for clang, some for some specific version of those, some
for some specific version of flex or bison, or some specific
combination of these components, bah.

- Allow customization of clang options for BPF target, this helps
building on gentoo where there are other oddities where BPF targets
gets passed some compiler options intended for the native build, so
building with WERROR=0 helps while these oddities are fixed.

- Dont pass ERR_PTR() values to perf_session__delete() in 'perf top'
and 'perf lock', fixing some segfaults when handling some odd
failures.

- Add LTO build option.

- Fix format of unordered lists in the perf docs
(tools/perf/Documentation)

- Overhaul the bison files, using constructs such as YYNOMEM.

- Remove unused tokens from the bison .y files.

- Add more comments to various structs.

- A few LoongArch enablement patches.

Vendor events (JSON):

- Add JSON metrics for Yitian 710 DDR (aarch64). Things like:

EventName, BriefDescription
visible_window_limit_reached_rd, "At least one entry in read queue reaches the visible window limit.",
visible_window_limit_reached_wr, "At least one entry in write queue reaches the visible window limit.",
op_is_dqsosc_mpc , "A DQS Oscillator MPC command to DRAM.",
op_is_dqsosc_mrr , "A DQS Oscillator MRR command to DRAM.",
op_is_tcr_mrr , "A Temperature Compensated Refresh(TCR) MRR command to DRAM.",

- Add AmpereOne metrics (aarch64).

- Update N2 and V2 metrics (aarch64) and events using Arm telemetry
repo.

- Update scale units and descriptions of common topdown metrics on
aarch64. Things like:
- "MetricExpr": "stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles)",
- "BriefDescription": "Frontend bound L1 topdown metric",
+ "MetricExpr": "100 * (stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles))",
+ "BriefDescription": "This metric is the percentage of total slots that were stalled due to resource constraints in the frontend of the processor.",

- Update events for intel: meteorlake to 1.04, sapphirerapids to
1.15, Icelake+ metric constraints.

- Update files for the power10 platform"

perf parse-events: Remove BPF event support

New features like the BPF --filter support in perf record have made the
BPF event functionality somewhat redundant. As shown by commit
fcb027c1a4f6 ("perf tools: Revert enable indices setting syntax for BPF
map") and commit 14e4b9f4289a ("perf trace: Raw augmented syscalls fix
libbpf 1.0+ compatibility") the BPF event support hasn't been well
maintained and it adds considerable complexity in areas like event
parsing, not least as '/' is a separator for event modifiers as well as
in paths.

This patch removes support in the event parser for BPF events and then
the associated functions are removed. This leads to the removal of whole
source files like bpf-loader.c. Removing support means that augmented
syscalls in perf trace is broken, this will be fixed in a later commit
adding support using BPF skeletons.

The removal of BPF events causes an unused label warning from flex
generated code, so update build to ignore it:

```
util/parse-events-flex.c:2704:1: error: label ‘find_rule’ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-label]
2704 | find_rule: /* we branch to this label when backing up */
```

Committer notes:

Extracted from a larger patch that was also removing the support for
linking with libllvm and libclang, that were an alternative to using an
external clang execution to compile the .c event source code into BPF
bytecode.

Testing it:

# perf trace -e /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c
event syntax error: '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c'
\___ Bad event or PMU

Unabled to find PMU or event on a PMU of 'home'

Initial error:
event syntax error: '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c'
\___ Cannot find PMU `home'. Missing kernel support?
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

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

Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.5-1-2023-06-28' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools-next

Pull perf tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
"Internal cleanup:

- Refactor PMU data management to handle hybrid systems in a generic
way.

Do more work in the lexer so that legacy event types parse more
easily. A side-effect of this is that if a PMU is specified,
scanning sysfs is avoided improving start-up time.

- Fix hybrid metrics, for example, the TopdownL1 works for both
performance and efficiency cores on Intel machines. To support
this, sort and regroup events after parsing.

- Add reference count checking for the 'thread' data structure.

- Lots of fixes for memory leaks in various places thanks to the ASAN
and Ian's refcount checker.

- Reduce the binary size by replacing static variables with local or
dynamically allocated memory.

- Introduce shared_mutex for annotate data to reduce memory
footprint.

- Make filesystem access library functions more thread safe.

Test:

- Organize cpu_map tests into a single suite.

- Add metric value validation test to check if the values are within
correct value ranges.

- Add perf stat stdio output test to check if event and metric names
match.

- Add perf data converter JSON output test.

- Fix a lot of issues reported by shellcheck(1). This is a
preparation to enable shellcheck by default.

- Make the large x86 new instructions test optional at build time
using EXTRA_TESTS=1.

- Add a test for libpfm4 events.

perf script:

- Add 'dsoff' outpuf field to display offset from the DSO.

$ perf script -F comm,pid,event,ip,dsoff
ls 2695501 cycles: 152cc73ef4b5 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.31.so+0x1c4b5)
ls 2695501 cycles: ffffffff99045b3e ([kernel.kallsyms])
ls 2695501 cycles: ffffffff9968e107 ([kernel.kallsyms])
ls 2695501 cycles: ffffffffc1f54afb ([kernel.kallsyms])
ls 2695501 cycles: ffffffff9968382f ([kernel.kallsyms])

ls 2695501 cycles: ffffffff992a6db0 ([kernel.kallsyms])

- Adjust width for large PID/TID values.

perf report:

- Robustify reading addr2line output for srcline by checking sentinel
output before the actual data and by using timeout of 1 second.

- Allow config terms (like 'name=ABC') with breakpoint events.

$ perf record -e mem:0x55feb98dd169:x/name=breakpoint/ -p 19646 -- sleep 1

perf annotate:

- Handle x86 instruction suffix like 'l' in 'movl' generally.

- Parse instruction operands properly even with a whitespace. This is

- Support RISC-V binutils lookup using the triplet prefixes.

- Add '<' and '>' key to navigate to prev/next symbols in TUI.

- Fix instruction association and parsing for LoongArch.

perf srcline: Add a timeout to reading from addr2line

addr2line may fail to send expected values causing perf to wait
indefinitely. Add a 1 second timeout (twice the timeout for reading from
/proc/pid/maps) so that such reads don't cause perf to appear to lock
up.

There are already checks that the file for addr2line contains a debug
section but this isn't always sufficient. The problem was observed when
a valid elf file would set the configuration for binutils addr2line,
then a later read of vmlinux with ELF debug sections would cause a
failing write/read which would block indefinitely.

As a service to future readers, if the io hits eof or an error, cleanup
the addr2line process.

Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.2-1-2022-12-16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux

Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
"Libraries:

- Drop the old copy of libtraceevent in tools/lib/traceevent/ now
that all major distros ship it from its external repository.

This is now just another feature detection, emitting a warning when
the libtraceevent-dev[el] package isn't installed, disabling the
build of perf features and tools that strictly require parsing
things from tracefs while keeping the core functionality present
and working with a subset of the events, the most used ones like
CPU cycles, hardware cache and also vendor events, etc.

This was tested with lots of containers for Fedora, Debian,
OpenSUSE, Alpine Linux, Ubuntu, with cross builds, etc.

Build:

- Update to C standard to gnu11, like was done for the kernel.

- Install the tools/lib/ libraries locally instead of having headers
searched directly from the source code directories, to help the
cases where we can build either from in-kernel source libraries or
from the same library shipped as a distro package, as is the case
with libbpf and was the case with libtraceevent.

perf stat:

- Do not delay the workload with --delay, the delay is just for
starting to count the events, to skip noise at workload startup.

- When we have events for each cgroup, the metric should be printed
for each cgroup separately.

$ perf stat -a --for-each-cgroup system.slice,user.slice --metric-only sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

GHz insn per cycle branch-misses of all branches
system.slice 3.792 0.61 3.24%
user.slice 3.661 2.32 0.37%

- Fix printing field separator in CSV metrics output.

- Fix --metric-only --json output.

- Fix summary output in CSV with --metric-only.

- Update event group check for support of uncore event.

perf test:

- Stop requiring a C toolchain in shell tests, instead add a workload
option that has all the previously C snippets built as part of
'perf test -w' that then get used in the 'perf test' shell scripts.

- Add event group test for events in multiple PMUs

- The "kernel lock contention analysis" test should not print
warnings in quiet mode.

- Add attr tests for ARM64's new VG register.

- Fix record test on KVM guests, as using precise flag with the
br_inst_retired.near_call event causes the test fail on KVM guests,
even when the guests have PMU forwarding enabled and the event
itself is supported, so just remove the precise flag from the
event.

- Add mechanism for skipping attr tests on specific kernel versions
where it is known that these checks will fail.

- Skip watchpoint tests if no watchpoints available.

- Add more Intel PT 'perf test' entries: hybrid CPUs, split the
packet decoder into a suite of subtests.

perf script:

- Introduce task analyzer python script, where one first records some events:

Recording can be done in two ways:

$ perf script record tasks-analyzer -- sleep 10
$ perf record -e sched:sched_switch -a -- sleep 10

The script can parse any perf.data files, as long as it has
sched:sched_switch events, other events will be ignored.

The most simple report use case is to just call the script without
arguments.

Runtime is the time the task was running on the CPU, Time Out-In is
the time between the process being scheduled *out* and scheduled
back *in*. So the last time span between two executions:

$ perf script report tasks-analyzer
Switched-In Switched-Out CPU PID TID Comm Runtime Time Out-In

[...]

perf lock:

- Allow concurrent record and report to support live monitoring of
kernel lock contention without BPF:

# perf lock record -a -o- sleep 1 | perf lock contention -i-
contended total wait max wait avg wait type caller

2 10.27 us 6.17 us 5.13 us spinlock load_balance+0xc03

1 3.28 us 3.28 us 3.28 us mutex pipe_read+0x50

- Implement -t/--threads option when using BPF:

$ sudo ./perf lock contention -abt -E 5 sleep 1
contended total wait max wait avg wait pid comm

1 740.66 ms 740.66 ms 740.66 ms 1950 nv_queue

1 20.18 us 20.18 us 20.18 us 2725033 EventManager_De

- Add -l/--lock-addr to aggregate per-lock-instance contention:

$ sudo ./perf lock contention -abl sleep 1
contended total wait max wait avg wait address symbol

1 36.28 us 36.28 us 36.28 us ffff92615d6448b8

1 924 ns 924 ns 924 ns ffff926095ba9d20
1 436 ns 436 ns 436 ns ffff9260bfda4f60

perf record:

- Add remaining branch filters: "no_cycles", "no_flags" & "hw_index",
to be used with hardware such as Intel's LBR that allows things
like stitching stacks of two samples to overcome the limits of the
number of LBR registers.

Symbol resolution:

- Handle .debug files created with 'objcopy --only-keep-debug', where
program headers are zeroed and thus can't be used for adjustments,
use the info in the runtime_ss (runtime ELF) instead.

perf trace:

- Add BPF based augmenter for the 'perf_event_open's 'struct
perf_event_attr' argument.

- Add BPF based augmenter for the 'clock_gettime's 'struct timespec'
argument.

- In both cases the syscall tracepoint has just the pointer value, we
need to hook a BPF program to collect the pointer contents, and
then, in userspace, pretty print it in 'perf trace'.

perf list:

- Introduce JSON output of events.

- Streamline how the expression specifying what events should be
shown is handled, fixing several corner cases, such as the metric
filter that is specified as a glob but was using strstr().

perf probe:

- Fix to avoid crashing if DW_AT_decl_file is NULL, coping with clang
generating DWARF5 like that.

- Use dwarf_attr_integrate() as generic DWARF attr accessor as it
supersedes dwarf_attr(), supporting abstact origin DIEs.

perf inject:

- Set PERF_RECORD_MISC_BUILD_ID_SIZE in the PERF_RECORD_HEADER_BUILD_ID
so that perf.data readers can get the real build-id size and avoid
trailing zeroes.

perf data:

- Add tracepoint fields when converting a perf.data file to JSON.

arm64:

- Fix mksyscalltbl, don't lose syscalls due to sort -nu.

- Add Arm Neoverse V2 PMU events.

riscv:

- Add riscv sbi firmware std event files.

- Add Sifive U74 vendor events (JSON) file.

- Add some more events and metrics for Alderlake/Alderlake-N.

Documentation:

- Add data documentation for the PMU structs in the C source code.

Miscellaneous:

- Periodic sanitization of headers, adding missing includes, removing
needless ones, creating new ones, etc.

- Use sig_atomic_t for signal handlers to avoid undefined behaviour
in all perf tools.

- Fixes for libbpf 1.0+ compatibility (maps, etc) on 'perf trace' BPF
examples.

- Remove some old perf bpf examples, leave the best ones that
demonstrate how to associate BPF functions to points in the kernel.

- Make quiet mode consistent between tools.

- Use dedicated non-atomic clear/set bit helpers.

- Use "grep -E" instead of "egrep" as recommended by warning emitted
by GNU grep since at least version 3.8.

- Complete list of supported subcommands in the 'perf daemon' help
message.

- Update John Garry's email address for arm64 perf tooling on the
MAINTAINERS file, he moved from Huawei to Oracle"
