When there's only a single callchain, perf doesn't print its percentage
in front of the symbols. This is because it assumes that the percentage
is same as parents. But if a percent limit is applied, it's possible
that there are actually a couple of child nodes but only one of them is
shown. In this case it should display the percent to prevent
misunderstanding of its percentage is same as the parent's.
For example, let's see the following callchain.
$ perf report -s comm --percent-limit 0.01 --stdio
...
9.95% swapper
|
|--7.57%--intel_idle
| cpuidle_enter_state
| cpuidle_enter
| call_cpuidle
| cpu_startup_entry
| |
| |--4.89%--start_secondary
| |
| --2.68%--rest_init
| start_kernel
| x86_64_start_reservations
| x86_64_start_kernel
|
|--0.15%--__schedule

| |--0.13%--schedule
| | schedule_preempt_disable
| | cpu_startup_entry

Current code omits the percent if 'intel_idle' becomes the only node
when percent limit is set to 0.5%, its percent is not 9.95% but users
will assume it incorrectly.

$ perf report --percent-limit 0.5 --stdio

Pass hist entry's period to graph callchain print function. This info
is needed by later patch to determine whether it can omit percentage of
top-level node or not.

It's just a wrapper function to align the start position ofcallchains to
'comm' of each thread if it's a first sort key. But it doesn't not work

Currently the hist entry addition path doesn't update total_period of
hists and it's calculated during 'resort' path. But the resort path
needs to know the total period before doing its job because it's used
for calculating percent limit of callchains in hist entries.
So this patch update the total period during the addition path. It
makes the percent limit of callchains working (again).

The total period should be get using hists__total_period() since it
takes filtered entries into account. In addition, if callchain mode is
'fractal', the total period should be the entry's period.

Intel PT attempts to find the sched:sched_switch tracepoint but that seg
faults if tracefs is not readable, because the error reporting structure
is null, as errors are not reported when automatically adding
tracepoints. Fix by checking before using.
Committer note:
This doesn't take place in a kernel that supports
perf_event_attr.context_switch, that is the default way that will be
used for tracking context switches, only in older kernels, like 4.2, in
a machine with Intel PT (e.g. Broadwell) for non-priviledged users.
Further info from a similar patch by Wang:
The error is in tracepoint_error: it assumes the 'e' parameter is valid.
However, there are many situation a parse_event() can be called without
parse_events_error. See result of
$ grep 'parse_events(.*NULL)' ./tools/perf/ -r'

Powerpc provides hcall events that also provides insights into guest
behaviour. Enhance perf kvm stat to record and analyze hcall events.
- To trace hcall events :
perf kvm stat record
- To show the results :
perf kvm stat report --event=hcall
The result shows the number of hypervisor calls from the guest grouped
by their respective reasons displayed with the frequency.
This patch makes use of two additional tracepoints
"kvm_hv:kvm_hcall_enter" and "kvm_hv:kvm_hcall_exit". To map the hcall
codes to their respective names, it needs a mapping. Such mapping is
added in this patch in book3s_hcalls.h.
# pgrep qemu
A sample output :
19378
60515
2 VMs running.
# perf kvm stat record -a
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 4.153 MB perf.data.guest (39624

# perf kvm stat report -p 60515 --event=hcall

perf kvm can be used to analyze guest exit reasons. This support already
exists in x86. Hence, porting it to powerpc.
- To trace KVM events :
perf kvm stat record
If many guests are running, we can track for a specific guest by using
--pid as in : perf kvm stat record --pid <pid>
- To see the results :
perf kvm stat report
The result shows the number of exits (from the guest context to
host/hypervisor context) grouped by their respective exit reasons with
their frequency.
Since, different powerpc machines have different KVM tracepoints, this
patch discovers the available tracepoints dynamically and accordingly
looks for them. If any single tracepoint is not present, this support
won't be enabled for reporting. To record, this will fail if any of the
events we are looking to record isn't available. Right now, its only
supported on PowerPC Book3S_HV architectures.
To analyze the different exits, group them and present them (in a slight
descriptive way) to the user, we need a mapping between the "exit code"
(dumped in the kvm_guest_exit tracepoint data) and to its related
Interrupt vector description (exit reason). This patch adds this mapping
in book3s_hv_exits.h.
It records on two available KVM tracepoints for book3s_hv:
"kvm_hv:kvm_guest_exit" and "kvm_hv:kvm_guest_enter".
Here is a sample o/p:
# pgrep qemu
19378
60515
2 Guests are running on the host.
# perf kvm stat record -a
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 4.153 MB perf.data.guest (39624
samples) ]
# perf kvm stat report -p 60515

Will Deacon [1] has some question on patch [2]. This patch improves
test__bp_signal so we can test:
1. A watchpoint and a breakpoint that fire on the same instruction
2. Nested signals
Test result:
On x86_64 and ARM64 (result are similar with patch [2] on ARM64):
# ./perf test -v signal
17: Test breakpoint overflow signal handler :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 10213
count1 1, count2 3, count3 2, overflow 3, overflows_2 3
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
Test breakpoint overflow signal handler: Ok
So at least 2 cases Will doubted are handled correctly.

Copying perf to old kernel system results:
# perf test bpf
37: Test BPF filter :
37.1: Test basic BPF filtering : FAILED!
37.2: Test BPF prologue generation : Skip
However, in case when kernel doesn't support a test case it should
return 'Skip', 'FAILED!' should be reserved for kernel tests for when
the kernel supports a feature that then fails to work as advertised.
This patch checks environment before real testcase.

There is a nasty confusion that, for kernel module, dso->kernel is not
necessary to be DSO_TYPE_KERNEL or DSO_TYPE_GUEST_KERNEL. These two
enums are for vmlinux. See thread [1]. We tried to fix this part but it
is costy.
Code machine__write_buildid_table() is another unfortunate function fall
into this trap that, when issuing buildid event for a kernel module,
cpumode it gives to the event is PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER, not
PERF_RECORD_MISC_KERNEL.
However, even with this bug, most of the time it doesn't causes real
problem. I find this issue when trying to use a perf before commit
3d39ac538629 ("perf machine: No need to have two DSOs lists") to parse a
perf.data generated by newest perf.

Also adjusting the existing client of the interface to take the new

The 'tools/perf/test/make' makefile has in its default, 'all' target
builds that will pollute the source code directory, i.e. that will not
use O= variable.
The 'build-test' should be run as often as possible, preferrably after
each non strictly non-code commit, so speed it up by selecting just
the O= targets.
Furthermore it tests both the Makefile.perf file, that is normally
driven by the main Makefile, and the Makefile, reduce the time in half
by having just MK=Makefile, the most usual, tested by 'build-test'.
Please run:
make -C tools/perf -f tests/make
from time to time for testing also the in-place build tests.

To prevent the feature check tests to run repeately, one time per
'tests/make' target/test, this patch utilizes the previously introduced
'feature-dump' make target and FEATURES_DUMP variable, making sure that
the feature checkers run only once when doing build-test for normal test
cases.
However, since standard users doesn't reuse features dump result, we'd
better give an option to check their behaviors. The above feature
should be used to make build-test faster only. Only utilize it for
build-test.

I see problem with test-all case speedup, because it does not
comprise checks for 32bits compilations, fix it.
The problem could be noticed by calling:
make -C tools/perf feature-dump
That would end up misdetecting the feature-compile-x32, that, building
using 'gcc -mx32' needs stub headers not present in a fedora 23 devel
machine and thus fail to compile, but ended up appearing as detected,
i.e. present in tools/perf/FEATURE-DUMP as 'feature-compile-x32=1'.
With this fix it correctly appears as 'feature-compile-x32=0' and if we
uninstall the libc devel files for 32 bits (glibc-devel.i686), then the
relevant variable is flipped from 'feature-compile-32=1' to
'feature-compile-32=0'.
The same things happened for bionic and libbabeltrace, that were
misdetected because the are no tested in test-all.c

Libbpf should check the target section before doing relocation to ensure
the relocation is correct. If not, a bug in LLVM causes an error. See
[1]. Also, if an incorrect BPF script uses both global variable and
map, global variable whould be treated as map and be relocated without
error.
This patch saves the id of the map section into obj->efile and compare
target section of a relocation symbol against it during relocation.
Previous patch introduces a test case about this problem. After this

There's a bug in LLVM that it can generate unneeded relocation
information. See [1] and [2]. Libbpf should check the target section of
a relocation symbol.
This patch adds a testcase which references a global variable (BPF
doesn't support global variables). Before fixing libbpf, the new test
case can be loaded into kernel, the global variable acts like the first
map. It is incorrect.
Result:
# ~/perf test BPF

USe 'jump_arrows' config name instead of 'code' on 'colors' section.
'colors.code' config is only for jump arrows on assembly code listings
i.e.
│ ┌──jmp 1333
│ │ xchg %ax,%ax
│ │ mov %r15,%r10
│ └─→cmp %r15,%r14
But this config name seems unfit.
'jump_arrows' is more descriptive than 'code'.

perf_event_paranoid was only documented in source code and a perf error
message. Copy the documentation from the error message to
Documentation/sysctl/kernel.txt.
perf_cpu_time_max_percent was already documented but missing from the
list at the top, so add it there.
