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,

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of 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:

User visible changes:

- Enable per-event perf_event_attr.inherit setting by config terms, i.e.
this becomes possible:

$ perf record -e cycles/inherit/ -e instructions/no-inherit/

This affects the default, that can be changed globally using the --no-inherit
option.

This fine grained control appeared in the eBPF patchkit, but this added
flexibility may end up being useful in other scenarios. (Wang Nan)

- Setup pager when printing usage and help, we have long lists of options,
better use the pager like we do with normal tooling output, i.e. when needed,
and including any error messages in the paged 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

- Fix reading separate debuginfo files based on a build-id, problem
found on a Debian system. (Dima Kogan)

- Fix endless loop when splitting kallsyms symbols per section for
handling kcore files, problem found on a s390x system. (Jiri Olsa)

Infrastructure changes:

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

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

Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
"Core kernel changes:

- One of the more interesting features in this cycle is the ability
to attach eBPF programs (user-defined, sandboxed bytecode executed
by the kernel) to kprobes.

This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image
that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively.
(Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might
allow unprivileged use as well.)

(Alexei Starovoitov)

- Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this
allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock
sources for event timestamps traced via perf.

This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated
events with external events that were measured with different
clocks:

- cluster wide profiling

- for system wide tracing with user-space events,

- JIT profiling events

etc. Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via
the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al.

(Peter Zijlstra)

Hardware enablement kernel changes:

- x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer
on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs.

The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space
ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added
to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the
necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous.

This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result.
A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT
driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU.
More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well -
will probably be ready by 4.2.

(Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra)

- x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware
feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and
allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads.

These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU
driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events. (The
partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged
as a cgroup extension.)

(Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P
Waskiewicz Jr)

- x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell
feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus
tooling support. To activate this feature you have to enable it
via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option:

perf record --call-graph lbr
perf report

or:

perf top --call-graph lbr

This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf
based unwinding, but has some limitations:

- It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and
branch record can not be enabled at the same time.

- It is only available for user-space callchains.

(Yan, Zheng)

- x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and
event table fixes for earlier models.

(Andi Kleen)

- x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds. This is a complex
CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter
value corruption. The mitigation code is automatically enabled and
is transparent.

(Maria Dimakopoulou, Stephane Eranian)

The perf tooling side had a ton of changes in this cycle as well, so
I'm only able to list the user visible changes here, in addition to
the tooling changes outlined above:

User visible changes affecting all tools:

- Improve support of compressed kernel modules (Jiri Olsa)
- Save DSO loading errno to better report errors (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Bash completion for subcommands (Yunlong Song)
- Add 'I' event modifier for perf_event_attr.exclude_idle bit (Jiri Olsa)
- Support missing -f to override perf.data file ownership. (Yunlong Song)
- Show the first event with an invalid filter (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

User visible changes in individual tools:

'perf data':

New tool for converting perf.data to other formats, initially
for the CTF (Common Trace Format) from LTTng (Jiri Olsa,
Sebastian Siewior)

'perf diff':

Add --kallsyms option (David Ahern)

'perf list':

Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix (Yunlong Song)

Sort the output of the command (Yunlong Song)

'perf kmem':

Respect -i option (Jiri Olsa)

Print big numbers using thousands' group (Namhyung Kim)

Allow -v option (Namhyung Kim)

Fix alignment of slab result table (Namhyung Kim)

'perf probe':

Support multiple probes on different binaries on the same command line (Masami Hiramatsu)

Support unnamed union/structure members data collection. (Masami Hiramatsu)

Check kprobes blacklist when adding new events. (Masami Hiramatsu)

'perf record':

Teach 'perf record' about perf_event_attr.clockid (Peter Zijlstra)

Support recording running/enabled time (Andi Kleen)

'perf sched':

Improve the performance of 'perf sched replay' on high CPU core count machines (Yunlong Song)

'perf report' and 'perf top':

Allow annotating entries in callchains in the hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Indicate which callchain entries are annotated in the
TUI hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Add pid/tid filtering to 'report' and 'script' commands (David Ahern)

Consider PERF_RECORD_ events with cpumode == 0 in 'perf top', removing one
cause of long term memory usage buildup, i.e. not processing PERF_RECORD_EXIT
events (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

'perf stat':

Report unsupported events properly (Suzuki K. Poulose)

Output running time and run/enabled ratio in CSV mode (Andi Kleen)

'perf trace':

Handle legacy syscalls tracepoints (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Only insert blank duration bracket when tracing syscalls (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Filter out the trace pid when no threads are specified (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Dump stack on segfaults (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

No need to explicitely enable evsels for workload started from perf, let it
be enabled via perf_event_attr.enable_on_exec, removing some events that take
place in the 'perf trace' before a workload is really started by it.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Allow mixing with tracepoints and suppressing plain syscalls. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

There's also been a ton of infrastructure work done, such as the
split-out of perf's build system into tools/build/ and other changes -

# 9e3b6ec1 02-Apr-2015 Yunlong Song <yunlong.song@huawei.com>

perf evlist: Support using -f to override perf.data file ownership

Enable perf evlist to use perf.data when it is not owned by current user
or root.

Example:

# perf record ls
# chown Yunlong.Son

perf evlist: Support using -f to override perf.data file ownership

Enable perf evlist to use perf.data when it is not owned by current user
or root.

Example:

# perf record ls
# chown Yunlong.Song:Yunlong.Song perf.data
# ls -al perf.data
-rw------- 1 Yunlong.Song Yunlong.Song 28260 Apr 2 10:18 perf.data
# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),64(pkcs11)

Before this patch:

# perf evlist
File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)
# perf evlist -f
Error: unknown switch `f'

usage: perf evlist [<options>]

-i, --input <file> Input file name
-F, --freq Show the sample frequency
-v, --verbose Show all event attr details
-g, --group Show event group information

As shown above, the -f option does not work at all.

After this patch:

# perf evlist
File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)
# perf evlist -f
cycles

As shown above, the -f option really works now.
