All traceevent plugins code is moved to tools/lib/traceevent/plugins
subdirectory. It makes traceevent implementation in trace-cmd and in
kernel tree consistent. There is no changes in the way libtraceevent and
plugins are compiled and installed.
Committer notes:
Applied fixup provided by Steven, fixing the tools/perf/Makefile.perf
target for the plugin dynamic list file. Problem noticed when cross
building to aarch64 from a Ubuntu 19.04 container.

Enhance usability by allowing the same plurality used in the output
title, for the command line parameter.
BEFORE, perf deceitfully acts as if there are no metrics to be had:
$ perf list metrics
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
Metric Groups:
$
But singular 'metric' shows a list of metrics:
$ perf list metric
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
Metrics:
IPC
[Instructions Per Cycle (per logical thread)]
UPI
[Uops Per Instruction]
AFTER, when asking for 'metrics', we actually see the metrics get listed:
$ perf list metrics
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
Metrics:
IPC
[Instructions Per Cycle (per logical thread)]
UPI
[Uops Per Instruction]

Allow users to symbolically specify L3 events for Family 17h processors
using the existing AMD Uncore driver.
Source of events descriptions are from section 2.1.15.4.1 "L3 Cache PMC

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

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.

This patch is to return error code of perf_new_session function on
failure instead of NULL.
Test Results:
Before Fix:
$ perf c2c report -input
failed to open nput: No such file or directory
$ echo $?
0
$
After Fix:
$ perf c2c report -input
failed to open nput: No such file or directory
$ echo $?
254
$
Committer notes:
Fix 'perf tests topology' case, where we use that TEST_ASSERT_VAL(...,
session), i.e. we need to pass zero in case of failure, which was the
case before when NULL was returned by perf_session__new() for failure,
but now we need to negate the result of IS_ERR(session) to respect that
TEST_ASSERT_VAL) expectation of zero meaning failure.

Since add_probe_trace_event() can reuse tf->tevs[i] after calling
clear_probe_trace_event(), this can make perf-probe crash if the 1st
attempt of probe event finding fails to find an event argument, and the
2nd attempt fails to find probe point.
E.g.
$ perf probe -D "task_pid_nr tsk"
Failed to find 'tsk' in this function.
Failed to get entry address of warn_bad_vsyscall
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Fix to skip making a same probe address on given line.
Since a DWARF line info contains several entries for one line with
different column, perf probe will make a different probe on same address
if user specifies a probe point by "function:line" or "file:line".
e.g.
$ perf probe -D kernel_read:8
p:probe/kernel_read_L8 kernel_read+39
p:probe/kernel_read_L8_1 kernel_read+39
This skips such duplicated probe addresses.

Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]>

'perf kvm record' uses 'cycles'(if the user did not specify any event)
as the default event to profile the guest.
This will not provide any proper samples from the guest incase of
powerpc architecture, since in powerpc the PMUs are controlled by the
guest rather than the host.
Patch adds a function to pick an arch specific event for 'perf kvm
record', instead of selecting 'cycles' as a default event for all
architectures.
For powerpc this function checks for any user specified event, and if
there isn't any it returns invalid instead of proceeding with 'cycles'
event.

Move kvm-stat header file to the common include section, and make the
definitions in the header file under the conditional inclusion `#ifdef
HAVE_KVM_STAT_SUPPORT`.
This helps to define other 'perf kvm' related function prototypes in

Observe a segmentation fault when 'perf stat' is asked to repeat forever
with the interval option.
Without fix:
# perf stat -r 0 -I 5000 -e cycles -a sleep 10
# time counts unit events
5.000211692 3,13,89,82,34,157 cycles
10.000380119 1,53,98,52,22,294 cycles
10.040467280 17,16,79,265 cycles
Segmentation fault
This problem was only observed when we use forever option aka -r 0 and
works with limited repeats. Calling print_counter with ts being set to
NULL, is not a correct option when interval is set. Hence avoid
print_counter(NULL,..) if interval is set.
With fix:
# perf stat -r 0 -I 5000 -e cycles -a sleep 10
# time counts unit events

When using 'perf stat' with repeat and interval option, it shows wrong
values for events.
The wrong values will be shown for the first interval on the second and
subsequent repetitions.
Without the fix:
# perf stat -r 3 -I 2000 -e faults -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 5

#
prev_raw_counts is allocated when using intervals. This is used when
calculating the difference in the counts of events when using interval.
The current counts are stored in prev_raw_counts to calculate the
differences in the next iteration.
On the first interval of the second and subsequent repetitions,
prev_raw_counts would be the values stored in the last interval of the
previous repetitions, while the current counts will only be for the
first interval of the current repetition.
Hence there is a possibility of events showing up as big number.
Fix this by resetting prev_raw_counts whenever perf stat repeats the
command.
With the fix:
# perf stat -r 3 -I 2000 -e faults -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 5

This was broken since the cset introducing the --interval feature, i.e.
--repeat + --interval wasn't tested at that point, add the Fixes tag so

Pruning a bit more the includes dependency tree. Building this thing on
lots of containers takes time, we better reduce the time per build, each
container is doing 6 builds when clang and clang-devel are available,
and the plan is to do a 'make -C tools/perf build-test' that have many
more.
Also helps when doing normal development, as touching some random file
will have a much reduced chance of triggering lots of rebuilds.

Since we need to build this in !x86, we need to explicitely use the x86
files, not things like asm/insn.h, so we intentionally differ from the
master copy in the kernel sources, add -I diff directives to ignore just
these differences when checking for drift.

Now that there's a common version of the decoder for all tools, use it
instead of the local copy.
Also use perf's check-headers.sh script to diff the decoder files to
make sure they remain in sync with the kernel version. Objtool has a
similar check.
Committer notes:
Had to keep this all pointing explicitely to x86 headers/files, i.e.
instead of asm/isnn.h we had to use ../include/asm/insn.h when the files
were in differemt dirs, or just replace "<asm/foo.h>" with "foo.h".
This way we continue to be able to process perf.data files with Intel PT
traces in distros other than x86.
Also fixed up the awk script paths to use $(srcdir)/tools/arch instead
or relative directories so that we keep detached tarballs (make help |
grep perf) working.
For now the include lines in these headers are being ignored so as not
to flag false reports of kernel/tools out of sync.
