Description of hardware operation
---------------------------------
The core AMD PMU has a 4-bit wide per-cycle increment for each
performance monitor counter. That works for most events, but
now with AMD Family 17h and above processors, some events can
occur more than 15 times in a cycle. Those events are called
"Large Increment per Cycle" events. In order to count these
events, two adjacent h/w PMCs get their count signals merged
to form 8 bits per cycle total. In addition, the PERF_CTR count
registers are merged to be able to count up to 64 bits.
Normally, events like instructions retired, get programmed on a single
counter like so:
PERF_CTL0 (MSR 0xc0010200) 0x000000000053ff0c # event 0x0c, umask 0xff
PERF_CTR0 (MSR 0xc0010201) 0x0000800000000001 # r/w 48-bit count
The next counter at MSRs 0xc0010202-3 remains unused, or can be used
independently to count something else.
When counting Large Increment per Cycle events, such as FLOPs,
however, we now have to reserve the next counter and program the
PERF_CTL (config) register with the Merge event (0xFFF), like so:
PERF_CTL0 (msr 0xc0010200) 0x000000000053ff03 # FLOPs event, umask 0xff
PERF_CTR0 (msr 0xc0010201) 0x0000800000000001 # rd 64-bit cnt, wr lo 48b
PERF_CTL1 (msr 0xc0010202) 0x0000000f004000ff # Merge event, enable bit
PERF_CTR1 (msr 0xc0010203) 0x0000000000000000 # wr hi 16-bits count
The count is widened from the normal 48-bits to 64 bits by having the
second counter carry the higher 16 bits of the count in its lower 16
bits of its counter register.
The odd counter, e.g., PERF_CTL1, is programmed with the enabled Merge
event before the even counter, PERF_CTL0.
The Large Increment feature is available starting with Family 17h.
For more details, search any Family 17h PPR for the "Large Increment
per Cycle Events" section, e.g., section 2.1.15.3 on p. 173 in this
version:

Description of software operation
---------------------------------
The following steps are taken in order to support reserving and
enabling the extra counter for Large Increment per Cycle events:
1. In the main x86 scheduler, we reduce the number of available
counters by the number of Large Increment per Cycle events being
scheduled, tracked by a new cpuc variable 'n_pair' and a new
amd_put_event_constraints_f17h(). This improves the counter
scheduler success rate.
2. In perf_assign_events(), if a counter is assigned to a Large
Increment event, we increment the current counter variable, so the
counter used for the Merge event is removed from assignment
consideration by upcoming event assignments.
3. In find_counter(), if a counter has been found for the Large
Increment event, we set the next counter as used, to prevent other
events from using it.
4. We perform steps 2 & 3 also in the x86 scheduler fastpath, i.e.,
we add Merge event accounting to the existing used_mask logic.
5. Finally, we add on the programming of Merge event to the
neighbouring PMC counters in the counter enable/disable{_all}
code paths.
Currently, software does not support a single PMU with mixed 48- and
64-bit counting, so Large increment event counts are limited to 48
bits. In set_period, we zero-out the upper 16 bits of the count, so
the hardware doesn't copy them to the even counter's higher bits.
Simple invocation example showing counting 8 FLOPs per 256-bit/%ymm
vaddps instruction executed in a loop 100 million times:
perf stat -e cpu/fp_ret_sse_avx_ops.all/,cpu/instructions/ <workload>
Performance counter stats for '<workload>':
800,000,000 cpu/fp_ret_sse_avx_ops.all/u
300,042,101 cpu/instructions/u
Prior to this patch, the reported SSE/AVX FLOPs retired count would
be wrong.

AMD Family 17h processors and above gain support for Large Increment
per Cycle events. Unfortunately there is no CPUID or equivalent bit
that indicates whether the feature exists or not, so we continue to
determine eligibility based on a CPU family number comparison.
For Large Increment per Cycle events, we add a f17h-and-compatibles
get_event_constraints_f17h() that returns an even counter bitmask:
Large Increment per Cycle events can only be placed on PMCs 0, 2,
and 4 out of the currently available 0-5. The only currently
public event that requires this feature to report valid counts
is PMCx003 "Retired SSE/AVX Operations".
Note that the CPU family logic in amd_core_pmu_init() is changed
so as to be able to selectively add initialization for features
available in ranges of backward-compatible CPU families. This
Large Increment per Cycle feature is expected to be retained
in future families.
A side-effect of assigning a new get_constraints function for f17h
disables calling the old (prior to f15h) amd_get_event_constraints
implementation left enabled by commit e40ed1542dd7 ("perf/x86: Add perf
support for AMD family-17h processors"), which is no longer
necessary since those North Bridge event codes are obsoleted.
Also fix a spelling mistake whilst in the area (calulating ->
calculating).

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:
perf record:
Alexey Budankov:
- Adapt affinity for machines with #CPUs > 1K to overcome current 1024 CPUs
mask size limitation of cpu_set_t type.
perf report/top TUI:
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Make ENTER consistently present the pop up menu with and without call
chains, to eliminate confusion. The menu continues available at all times
use 'm' and '+' can be used to toggle just one call chain level, 'e' for all
the call chains for a top level histogram entry and 'E' to expand all call
chains in all top level entries. Extra info about these options was added to
the pop up menu entries. Pressing 'k' serves as special hotkey to go straight
to the main vmlinux entries, to avoid having to press enter and then select
"Zoom into the kernel DSO".
perf sched timehist:
David Ahern:
- Add support for filtering on CPU.
perf tests:
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Show expected versus obtained values in bp_signal test.
libperf:
Jiri Olsa:
- Move to tools/lib/perf.
- Add man pages.
libapi:
Andrey Zhizhikin:
- Fix gcc9 stringop-truncation compilation error.
tools lib:
Vitaly Chikunov:
- Fix builds when glibc contains strlcpy(), which is the case for ALT Linux.

Disable a couple of compilation warnings (which are treated as errors)
on strlcpy() definition and declaration, allowing users to compile perf
and kernel (objtool) when:
1. glibc have strlcpy() (such as in ALT Linux since 2004) objtool and
perf build fails with this (in gcc):

2. clang ignores `-Wredundant-decls', but produces another warning when
building perf:

callchains
The 'e' and 'c' hotkeys were present for a long time, but not documented
in the help window, change 'e' to be a toggle so that it gets consistent
with other toggles like '+' and document it in the help window.
Keep 'c' as is for people used to it but don't document, as it is easier
to just use 'e' to show/hide all the callchains for a top level
histogram entry.

This can happen in the --children mode, i.e. the default mode when
callchains are present, where one of the main entries may be a callchain
entry with no samples.
So far we were not providing any information about why an annotation
couldn't be provided even offering the Annotation option in the popup
menu.
Work is needed to allow for no-samples "annotation', i.e. to show the
disassembly anyway and allow for navigation, etc.

When the users presses ENTER in the main 'perf report/top' screen a
popup menu is presented, in it some hotkeys are suggested as
alternatives to using the menu, or for additional features.
At that point the user may try those hotkeys, so allow for that by
recording the key used and exiting, the caller then can check for that
possibility and process the hotkey.
I.e. try pressing ENTER, and then 'k' to exit and zoom into the kernel
map, using ESC then zooms out, etc.

With this patch if an optional pointer is passed to ui__popup_menu()
then when any key that is not being handled (ENTER, ESC, etc) is typed,
it'll record that key in the pointer and return, allowing for hotkey
processing on the caller.
If NULL is passed, no change in logic, unhandled keys continue to be
ignored.

Sometimes we're in an outer code, like the main hists browser popup menu
and the user follows a suggestion about using some hotkey, and that
hotkey is really handled by hists_browser__run(), so allow for calling
it with that hotkey, making it handle it instead of waiting for the user
to press one.

GCC9 introduced string hardening mechanisms, which exhibits the error
during fs api compilation:
error: '__builtin_strncpy' specified bound 4096 equals destination size
[-Werror=stringop-truncation]
This comes when the length of copy passed to strncpy is is equal to
destination size, which could potentially lead to buffer overflow.
There is a need to mitigate this potential issue by limiting the size of
destination by 1 and explicitly terminate the destination with NULL.

rst pages.
Add 3 man pages to have a base for more additions:
libperf.3 - overall description
libperf-counting.7 - counting basics explained on simple example
libperf-sampling.7 - sampling basics explained on simple example
The plan is to add more man pages to cover the basic API.
The build generates html and man pages:
$ cd tools/lib/perf/Documentation
$ make
ASCIIDOC libperf.xml
XMLTO libperf.3
ASCIIDOC libperf-counting.xml
XMLTO libperf-counting.7
ASCIIDOC libperf-sampling.xml

Use struct mmap_cpu_mask type for the tool's thread and mmap data
buffers to overcome current 1024 CPUs mask size limitation of cpu_set_t
type.
Currently glibc's cpu_set_t type has an internal mask size limit of 1024
CPUs.
Moving to the 'struct mmap_cpu_mask' type allows overcoming that limit.
The tools bitmap API is used to manipulate objects of 'struct mmap_cpu_mask'
type.

To print the 'nbits' struct member we must use %zd, since it is a

Declare a dedicated struct map_cpu_mask type for cpu masks of arbitrary
length.
The mask is available thru bits pointer and the mask length is kept in

The mmap_cpu_mask__scnprintf() function can be used to log text
representation of the mask.

LTP pipeio_1 test is hanging with v5.5-rc2-385-gb8e382a185eb,
with read side observing empty pipe and sleeping and write
side running out of space and then sleeping as well. In this
scenario there are 5 writers and 1 reader.
Problem is that after pipe_write() reacquires pipe lock, it
re-checks for empty pipe with potentially stale 'head' and
doesn't wake up read side anymore. pipe->tail can advance
beyond 'head', because there are multiple writers.
Use pipe->head for empty pipe check after reacquiring lock
to observe current state.
Testing: With patch, LTP pipeio_1 ran successfully in loop for 1 hour.
Without patch it hanged within a minute.

At least on PA-RISC and s390 synthetic histogram triggers are failing
selftests because trace_event_raw_event_synth() always writes a 64 bit
values, but the reader expects a field->size sized value. On little endian
machines this doesn't hurt, but on big endian this makes the reader always
read zero values.

trace_printk schedules work via irq_work_queue(), but doesn't
wait until it was processed. The kprobe_module.tc testcase does:
:;: "Load module again, which means the event1 should be recorded";:
modprobe trace-printk
grep "event1:" trace
so the grep which checks the trace file might run before the irq work
was processed. Fix this by adding a irq_work_sync().

This gives a circular dependency deadlock between trace_types_lock and

event_mutex in trace_options_core_write(). This keeps the sequence of
