2020-09-17perf stat: Support new per thread TopDown metricsAndi Kleen5-4/+134
Icelake has support for reporting per thread TopDown metrics. These are reported differently than the previous TopDown support, each metric is standalone, but scaled to pipeline "slots". We don't need to do anything special for HyperThreading anymore. Teach perf stat --topdown to handle these new metrics and print them in the same way as the previous TopDown metrics. The restrictions of only being able to report information per core is gone.

2020-09-17perf record: Support sample-read topdown metric groupKan Liang4-1/+44
With the hardware TopDown metrics feature, sample-read feature should be supported for a topdown group, e.g., sample a non-topdown event and read a topdown metric group. But the current perf record code errors out. For a topdown metric group, the slots event must be the leader of the group, but the leader slots event doesn't support sampling. To support sample-read the topdown metric group, use the 2nd event of the group as the "leader" for the purposes of sampling. Only the platform with Topdown metic feature supports sample-read the topdown group. Add arch_topdown_sample_read() to indicate whether the topdown group supports sample-read.

2020-09-17perf parse-event: Fix cpu map refcountingNamhyung Kim1-2/+2
Like evlist cpu map, evsel's cpu map should have a proper refcount. As it's created with a refcount, we don't need to get an extra count. Thanks to Arnaldo for the simpler suggestion.

2020-09-16perf stat: Fix the ratio comments of miss-eventsQi Liu1-10/+10
'perf stat' displays miss ratio of L1-dcache, L1-icache, dTLB cache, iTLB cache and LL-cache. Take L1-dcache for example, miss ratio is caculated as "L1-dcache-load-misses/L1-dcache-loads". So "of all L1-dcache hits" is unsuitable to describe it, and "of all L1-dcache accesses" seems better. The comments of L1-icache, dTLB cache, iTLB cache and LL-cache are fixed in the same way.

2020-09-15perf metric: Do not free metric when failed to resolveNamhyung Kim1-3/+6
It's dangerous to free the original metric when it's called from resolve_metric() as it's already in the metric_list and might have other resources too. Instead, it'd better let them bail out and be released properly at the later stage. So add a check when it's called from metricgroup__add_metric() and release it. Also make sure that mp is set properly.

If events in a group explicitly set a frequency or period with leader sampling, don't disable the samples on those events. Prior to 5.8: perf record -e '{cycles/period=12345000/,instructions/period=6789000/}:S' would clear the attributes then apply the config terms. In commit 5f34278867b7 leader sampling configuration was moved to after applying the config terms, in the example, making the instructions' event have its period cleared. This change makes it so that sampling is only disabled if configuration terms aren't present.

2020-09-10perf test: Introduce script for Arm CoreSight testingLeo Yan1-0/+183
We need a simple method to test Perf with ARM CoreSight drivers, this could be used for smoke testing when new patch is coming for perf or CoreSight drivers, and we also can use the test to confirm if the CoreSight has been enabled successfully on new platforms. This patch introduces the shell script test_arm_coresight.sh which is under the 'pert test' framework. This script provides three testing scenarios: Test scenario 1: traverse all possible paths between source and sink For traversing possible paths, simply to say, the testing rationale is source oriented testing, it traverses every source (now only refers to ETM device) and test its all possible sinks. To search the complete paths from one specific source to its sinks, this patch relies on the sysfs '/sys/bus/coresight/devices/devX/out:Y' for depth-first search (DFS) for iteration connected device nodes, if the output device is detected as a sink device (the script will exclude TPIU device which can not be supported for perf PMU), then it will test trace data recording and decoding for it. The script runs three output testings for every trace data: - Test branch samples dumping with 'perf script' command; - Test branch samples reporting with 'perf report' command; - Use option '--itrace=i1000i' to insert synthesized instructions events and the script will check if perf can output the percentage value successfully based on the instruction samples. Test scenario 2: system-wide test For system-wide testing, it passes option '-a' to perf tool to enable tracing on all CPUs, so it's hard to say which program will be traced. But perf tool itself contributes much overload in this case, so it will parse trace data and check if process 'perf' can be detected or not. Test scenario 3: snapshot mode test. For snapshot mode testing, it uses 'dd' command to launch a long running program, so this can give chance to send signal -USR2; it will check the captured trace data contains 'dd' related thread info or not. If any test fails, it will report failure and directly exit with error. This test will be only applied on a platform with PMU event 'cs_etm//', otherwise will skip the testing.
