perf build: Prevent "argument list too long" error

Due to a recent change, building perf may result in a build error when
it is trying to "prune orphans".

The file list passed to "rm" may exceed what the shell can handle.

The build will then abort with an error like this:

TEST [...]/arm64/build/linux-custom/tools/perf/pmu-events/metric_test.log
make[5]: /bin/sh: Argument list too long
make[5]: *** [pmu-events/Build:217: prune_orphans] Error 127
make[5]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[4]: *** [Makefile.perf:773: [...]/tools/perf/pmu-events/pmu-events-in.o] Error 2
make[4]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[3]: *** [Makefile.perf:289: sub-make] Error 2

Processing the arguments via "xargs", instead of passing the list of
files directly to "rm" via the shell, prevents this issue.

perf build: Reduce pmu-events related copying and mkdirs

When building to an output directory the previous code would remove
files and then copy the source files over.

Each source file copy would have a rule to make its directory. All JSON
for every architecture was considered a source file.

This led to unnecessary copying as a file would be deleted and then the
same file copied again, unnecessary directory making, and copying of
files not used in the build.

A side-effect would be a lot of build messages.

This change makes it so that all computed output files are created and
then compared to all files in the OUTPUT directory.

By filtering out the files that would be copied, unnecessary files can
be determined and then deleted - note, this is a phony target which
would remake the pmu-events.c if always depended upon, and so the
dependency is conditional on there being files to remove.

This has some overhead as the $(OUTPUT)/pmu-events is "find" over rather
than just "rm -fr", but the savings from unnecessary copying, etc.
should make up for this new make overhead.

The copy target just does copying but has a dependency on the directory
it needs being built, avoiding repetitive mkdirs.

The source files for copying only consider the JEVENTS_ARCH unless the
JEVENTS_ARCH is all.

The metric JSON is only generated if appropriate, rather than always
being generated and jevents.py deciding whether or not to use the files.

The mypy and pylint targets are fixed as variable names had changed but
the rules not updated.

The line count of a build with "make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/perf clean all"
prior to this change was 2181 lines, after this change it is 1596
lines.

This is a reduction of 585 lines or about 27%.

The generated pmu-events.c for JEVENTS_ARCH "x86" and "all" were
validated as being identical after this change.

perf jevents: Add load event JSON to verify and allow fallbacks

Add a LoadEvents function that loads all event JSON files in a
directory.

In the Event constructor ensure all events are defined in the event JSON
except for legacy events like "cycles".

If the initial event isn't found then legacy_event1 is used, and if that
isn't found legacy_event2 is used.

This allows a single Event to have multiple event names as models will
often rename the same event over time. If the event doesn't exist an
exception is raised.

So that references to metrics can be added, add the MetricRef
class. This doesn't validate as an event name and so provides an
escape hatch for metrics to refer to each other.

If a build takes place in tools/perf/ then extra-metrics.json and
extra-metricgroups.json are generated in that directory and so added
to .gitignore.

perf jevents: Handle deleted JSONS in out of source builds

Make the source folders a dependency for the generated folder root so
that whenever a file is deleted from the source it will force a new
fresh copy of all the JSON files and avoid stale deleted files.

JSON_DIRS_OUTPUT_ROOT needs to be a dependency of LEGACY_CACHE_JSON so
that the root folder doesn't get cleaned after the legacy JSON is
generated. But this is a no-op with in-source builds as
JSON_DIRS_OUTPUT_ROOT is unset.

JSON_DIRS is added as a dependency of PMU_EVENTS_C which also forces a
re-build for in source builds when JSON files are deleted. This could
have also resulted in stale builds, but never a broken one.

"Perf event/metric description:

Unify all event and metric descriptions in JSON format. Now event
parsing and handling is greatly simplified by that.

From users point of view, perf list will provide richer information
about hardware events like the following.

$ perf list hw

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

legacy hardware:
branch-instructions
[Retired branch instructions [This event is an alias of branches]. Unit: cpu]
branch-misses
[Mispredicted branch instructions. Unit: cpu]
branches
[Retired branch instructions [This event is an alias of branch-instructions]. Unit: cpu]
bus-cycles
[Bus cycles,which can be different from total cycles. Unit: cpu]
cache-misses
[Cache misses. Usually this indicates Last Level Cache misses; this is intended to be used in conjunction with the
PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_REFERENCES event to calculate cache miss rates. Unit: cpu]
cache-references
[Cache accesses. Usually this indicates Last Level Cache accesses but this may vary depending on your CPU. This may include
prefetches and coherency messages; again this depends on the design of your CPU. Unit: cpu]
cpu-cycles
[Total cycles. Be wary of what happens during CPU frequency scaling [This event is an alias of cycles]. Unit: cpu]
cycles
[Total cycles. Be wary of what happens during CPU frequency scaling [This event is an alias of cpu-cycles]. Unit: cpu]
instructions
[Retired instructions. Be careful,these can be affected by various issues,most notably hardware interrupt counts. Unit: cpu]
ref-cycles
[Total cycles; not affected by CPU frequency scaling. Unit: cpu]

But most notable changes would be in the perf stat. On the right side,
the default metrics are better named and aligned. :)

Deferred unwinding support:

With the kernel support (commit c69993ecdd4d: "perf: Support deferred
user unwind"), perf can use deferred callchains for userspace stack
trace with frame pointers like below:

$ perf record --call-graph fp,defer ...

This will be transparent to users when it comes to other commands like
perf report and perf script. They will merge the deferred callchains
to the previous samples as if they were collected together.

ARM SPE updates

- Extensive enhancements to support various kinds of memory
operations including GCS, MTE allocation tags, memcpy/memset,
register access, and SIMD operations.

- Add inverted data source filter (inv_data_src_filter) support to
exclude certain data sources.

- Improve documentation.

Vendor event updates:

- Intel: Updated event files for Sierra Forest, Panther Lake, Meteor
Lake, Lunar Lake, Granite Rapids, and others.

- Arm64: Added metrics for i.MX94 DDR PMU and Cortex-A720AE
definitions.

- RISC-V: Added JSON support for T-HEAD C920V2.

Misc:

- Improve pointer tracking in data type profiling. It'd give better
output when the variable is using container_of() to convert type.

- Annotation support for perf c2c report in TUI. Press 'a' key to
enter annotation view from cacheline browser window. This will show
which instruction is causing the cacheline contention.

- Lots of fixes and test coverage improvements!"

there is any file in the Perf source ending in .json. This can happen
when using tools like Bear and clangd which generate a
compile_commands.json file. With the glob already expanded by the shell,
the find command will fail to wildcard any real json events files.

Fix it by wrapping the star in quotes so it's passed to find rather than
the shell.

This fixes the following build error (most of the diff output omitted):

$ make V=1 -C tools/perf O=/tmp/perf_build_with_json

th

perf jevents: Add legacy-hardware and legacy-cache json

The legacy-hardware.json is added containing hardware events similarly
to the software.json file. A difference is that for the software PMU
the name is known and matches sysfs. In the legacy-hardware.json no
Unit/PMU is specified for the events meaning default_core is used and
the events will appear for all core PMUs.

There are potentially 1216 legacy cache events, rather than list them
in a json file add a make_legacy_cache.py helper to generate them.

By using json for legacy hardware and cache events: descriptions of
the events can be added; events can be marked as deprecated, such as
those misleadingly named l2 (deprecated is also used to mark all
events that weren't previously displayed in perf list); and the name
lookup becomes case insensitive.

The C string encoding all the perf events and metrics is increased in
size by 123,499 bytes which will increase the perf binary size. Later
changes will remove hard coded event parsing for legacy hardware and
cache events, turning parsing overhead into a binary search during
event lookup.

That event descriptions are based off of those in perf_event_open man
page, credit to Vince Weaver <vincent.weaver@maine.edu>.

perf jevents: Support copying the source json files to OUTPUT

The jevents command expects all json files to be organized under a
single directory. When generating json files from scripts (to reduce
laborious copy and paste in the json) we don't want to generate the
json into the source directory if there is an OUTPUT directory
specified. This change adds a GEN_JSON for this case where the
GEN_JSON copies the JSON files to OUTPUT, only when OUTPUT is
specified. The Makefile.perf clean code is updated to clean up this
directory when present.

This patch is part of:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240926173554.404411-12-irogers@google.com/
which was similarly adding support for generating json in scripts for
the consumption of jevents.py.
