Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Main kernel side changes:

- Big reorganization of the x86 perf support code. The old code grew
organically deep inside arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf* and its naming
became somewhat messy.

The new location is under arch/x86/events/, using the following
cleaner hierarchy of source code files:

perf/x86: Move perf_event.c .................. => x86/events/core.c
perf/x86: Move perf_event_amd.c .............. => x86/events/amd/core.c

(Borislav Petkov)

- Update various x86 PMU constraint and hw support details (Stephane
Eranian)

- Optimize kprobes for BPF execution (Martin KaFai Lau)

- Rewrite, refactor and fix the Intel uncore PMU driver code (Thomas
Gleixner)

- Rewrite, refactor and fix the Intel RAPL PMU code (Thomas Gleixner)

- Various fixes and smaller cleanups.

There are lots of perf tooling updates as well. A few highlights:

perf report/top:

- Hierarchy histogram mode for 'perf top' and 'perf report',
showing multiple levels, one per --sort entry: (Namhyung Kim)

On a mostly idle system:

# perf top --hierarchy -s comm,dso

Then expand some levels and use 'P' to take a snapshot:

# cat perf.hist.0
- 92.32% perf
58.20% perf
22.29% libc-2.22.so
5.97% [kernel]
4.18% libelf-0.165.so
1.69% [unknown]
- 4.71% qemu-system-x86
3.10% [kernel]
1.60% qemu-system-x86_64 (deleted)
+ 2.97% swapper
#

- Add 'L' hotkey to dynamicly set the percent threshold for
histogram entries and callchains, i.e. dynamicly do what the
--percent-limit command line option to 'top' and 'report' does.
(Namhyung Kim)

perf mem:

- Allow specifying events via -e in 'perf mem record', also listing
what events can be specified via 'perf mem record -e list' (Jiri
Olsa)

perf record:

- Add 'perf record' --all-user/--all-kernel options, so that one
can tell that all the events in the command line should be
restricted to the user or kernel levels (Jiri Olsa), i.e.:

perf record -e cycles:u,instructions:u

is equivalent to:

perf record --all-user -e cycles,instructions

- Make 'perf record' collect CPU cache info in the perf.data file header:

$ perf record usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (7 samples) ]
$ perf report --header-only -I | tail -10 | head -8
# CPU cache info:
# L1 Data 32K [0-1]
# L1 Instruction 32K [0-1]
# L1 Data 32K [2-3]
# L1 Instruction 32K [2-3]
# L2 Unified 256K [0-1]
# L2 Unified 256K [2-3]
# L3 Unified 4096K [0-3]

Will be used in 'perf c2c' and eventually in 'perf diff' to
allow, for instance running the same workload in multiple
machines and then when using 'diff' show the hardware difference.
(Jiri Olsa)

- Improved support for Java, using the JVMTI agent library to do
jitdumps that then will be inserted in synthesized
PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 events via 'perf inject' pointed to synthesized
ELF files stored in ~/.debug and keyed with build-ids, to allow
symbol resolution and even annotation with source line info, see
the changeset comments to see how to use it (Stephane Eranian)

perf script/trace:

- Decode data_src values (e.g. perf.data files generated by 'perf
mem record') in 'perf script': (Jiri Olsa)

# perf script
perf 693 [1] 4.088652: 1 cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: ffff88007d0b0f40 68100142 L1 hit|SNP None|TLB L1 or L2 hit|LCK No <SNIP>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Improve support to 'data_src', 'weight' and 'addr' fields in
'perf script' (Jiri Olsa)

- Handle empty print fmts in 'perf script -s' i.e. when running
python or perl scripts (Taeung Song)

perf stat:

- 'perf stat' now shows shadow metrics (insn per cycle, etc) in
interval mode too. E.g:

# perf stat -I 1000 -e instructions,cycles sleep 1
# time counts unit events
1.000215928 519,620 instructions # 0.69 insn per cycle
1.000215928 752,003 cycles
<SNIP>

- Port 'perf kvm stat' to PowerPC (Hemant Kumar)

- Implement CSV metrics output in 'perf stat' (Andi Kleen)

perf BPF support:

- Support converting data from bpf events in 'perf data' (Wang Nan)

- Print bpf-output events in 'perf script': (Wang Nan).

# perf record -e bpf-output/no-inherit,name=evt/ -e ./test_bpf_output_3.c/map:channel.event=evt/ usleep 1000
# perf script
usleep 4882 21384.532523: evt: ffffffff810e97d1 sys_nanosleep ([kernel.kallsyms])
BPF output: 0000: 52 61 69 73 65 20 61 20 Raise a
0008: 42 50 46 20 65 76 65 6e BPF even
0010: 74 21 00 00 t!..
BPF string: "Raise a BPF event!"
#

- Add API to set values of map entries in a BPF object, be it
individual map slots or ranges (Wang Nan)

- Introduce support for the 'bpf-output' event (Wang Nan)

- Add glue to read perf events in a BPF program (Wang Nan)

- Improve support for bpf-output events in 'perf trace' (Wang Nan)

... and tons of other changes as well - see the shortlog and git log
for details!"

set by tools using it (Jiri Olsa)

- libapi adopts filename__read_str() from perf, adds sysfs__read_str() (Jiri Olsa)

Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Kernel side changes:

- Improve accuracy of perf/sched clock on x86. (Adrian Hunter)

- Intel DS and BTS updates. (Alexander Shishkin)

- Intel cstate PMU support. (Kan Liang)

- Add group read support to perf_event_read(). (Peter Zijlstra)

- Branch call hardware sampling support, implemented on x86 and
PowerPC. (Stephane Eranian)

- Event groups transactional interface enhancements. (Sukadev
Bhattiprolu)

- Enable proper x86/intel/uncore PMU support on multi-segment PCI
systems. (Taku Izumi)

- ... misc fixes and cleanups.

The perf tooling team was very busy again with 200+ commits, the full
diff doesn't fit into lkml size limits. Here's an (incomplete) list
of the tooling highlights:

New features:

- Change the default event used in all tools (record/top): use the
most precise "cycles" hw counter available, i.e. when the user
doesn't specify any event, it will try using cycles:ppp, cycles:pp,
etc and fall back transparently until it finds a working counter.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Integration of perf with eBPF that, given an eBPF .c source file
(or .o file built for the 'bpf' target with clang), will get it
automatically built, validated and loaded into the kernel via the
sys_bpf syscall, which can then be used and seen using 'perf trace'
and other tools.

(Wang Nan)

Various user interface improvements:

- Automatic pager invocation on long help output. (Namhyung Kim)

- Search for more options when passing args to -h, e.g.: (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)

$ perf report -h interface

Usage: perf report [<options>]

--gtk Use the GTK2 interface
--stdio Use the stdio interface
--tui Use the TUI interface

- Show ordered command line options when -h is used or when an
unknown option is specified. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- If options are passed after -h, show just its descriptions, not all
options. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Implement column based horizontal scrolling in the hists browser
(top, report), making it possible to use the TUI for things like
'perf mem report' where there are many more columns than can fit in
a terminal. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Enhance the error reporting of tracepoint event parsing, e.g.:

$ oldperf record -e sched:sched_switc usleep 1
event syntax error: 'sched:sched_switc'
\___ unknown tracepoint
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

Now we get the much nicer:

$ perf record -e sched:sched_switc ls
event syntax error: 'sched:sched_switc'
\___ can't access trace events

Error: No permissions to read /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switc
Hint: Try 'sudo mount -o remount,mode=755 /sys/kernel/debug'

And after we have those mount point permissions fixed:

$ perf record -e sched:sched_switc ls
event syntax error: 'sched:sched_switc'
\___ unknown tracepoint

Error: File /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switc not found.
Hint: Perhaps this kernel misses some CONFIG_ setting to enable this feature?.

I.e. basically now the event parsing routing uses the strerror_open()
routines introduced by and used in 'perf trace' work. (Jiri Olsa)

- Fail properly when pattern matching fails to find a tracepoint,
i.e. '-e non:existent' was being correctly handled, with a proper
error message about that not being a valid event, but '-e
non:existent*' wasn't, fix it. (Jiri Olsa)

- Do event name substring search as last resort in 'perf list'.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

E.g.:

# perf list clock

List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):

cpu-clock [Software event]
task-clock [Software event]

uncore_cbox_0/clockticks/ [Kernel PMU event]
uncore_cbox_1/clockticks/ [Kernel PMU event]

kvm:kvm_pvclock_update [Tracepoint event]
kvm:kvm_update_master_clock [Tracepoint event]
power:clock_disable [Tracepoint event]
power:clock_enable [Tracepoint event]
power:clock_set_rate [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_enter_clock_adjtime [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_enter_clock_getres [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_enter_clock_gettime [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_enter_clock_nanosleep [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_enter_clock_settime [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_exit_clock_adjtime [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_exit_clock_getres [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_exit_clock_gettime [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_exit_clock_nanosleep [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_exit_clock_settime [Tracepoint event]

Intel PT hardware tracing enhancements:

- Accept a zero --itrace period, meaning "as often as possible". In
the case of Intel PT that is the same as a period of 1 and a unit
of 'instructions' (i.e. --itrace=i1i). (Adrian Hunter)

- Harmonize itrace's synthesized callchains with the existing
--max-stack tool option. (Adrian Hunter)

- Allow time to be displayed in nanoseconds in 'perf script'.
(Adrian Hunter)

- Fix potential infinite loop when handling Intel PT timestamps.
(Adrian Hunter)

- Slighly improve Intel PT debug logging. (Adrian Hunter)

- Warn when AUX data has been lost, just like when processing
PERF_RECORD_LOST. (Adrian Hunter)

- Further document export-to-postgresql.py script. (Adrian Hunter)

- Add option to synthesize branch stack from auxtrace data. (Adrian
Hunter)

Misc notable changes:

- Switch the default callchain output mode to 'graph,0.5,caller', to
make it look like the default for other tools, reducing the
learning curve for people used to 'caller' based viewing. (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)

- various call chain usability enhancements. (Namhyung Kim)

- Introduce the 'P' event modifier, meaning 'max precision level,
please', i.e.:

$ perf record -e cycles:P usleep 1

Is now similar to:

$ perf record usleep 1

Useful, for instance, when specifying multiple events. (Jiri Olsa)

- Add 'socket' sort entry, to sort by the processor socket in 'perf
top' and 'perf report'. (Kan Liang)

- Introduce --socket-filter to 'perf report', for filtering by
processor socket. (Kan Liang)

- Add new "Zoom into Processor Socket" operation in the perf hists
browser, used in 'perf top' and 'perf report'. (Kan Liang)

- Allow probing on kmodules without DWARF. (Masami Hiramatsu)

- Fix 'perf probe -l' for probes added to kernel module functions.
(Masami Hiramatsu)

- Preparatory work for the 'perf stat record' feature that will allow
generating perf.data files with counting data in addition to the
sampling mode we have now (Jiri Olsa)

- Update libtraceevent KVM plugin. (Paolo Bonzini)

- ... plus lots of other enhancements that I failed to list properly,

tools lib api cpu: Introduce cpu.[ch] to obtain cpu related information

E.g.:

It does that, as Kan's patch does, by looking at these files:

tools lib api cpu: Introduce cpu.[ch] to obtain cpu related information

E.g.:

$ ./cpu__get_max_freq
3200000

It does that, as Kan's patch does, by looking at these files:

$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/online
0-3
$ ./sysfs__read_ull
devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq=3200000
$

I.e. find out the first online CPU, then read its cpufreq info.

But do it in tools/lib/api/, so that other tools/ living code can use
it, not just perf.
