Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main kernel side changes in this cycle were:
- Various Intel-PT updates and optimizations (Alexander Shishkin)
- Prohibit kprobes on Xen/KVM emulate prefixes (Masami Hiramatsu)
- Add support for LSM and SELinux checks to control access to the perf syscall (Joel Fernandes)
- Misc other changes, optimizations, fixes and cleanups - see the shortlog for details.
There were numerous tooling changes as well - 254 non-merge commits. Here are the main changes - too many to list in detail:
- Enhancements to core tooling infrastructure, perf.data, libperf, libtraceevent, event parsing, vendor events, Intel PT, callchains, BPF support and instruction decoding.
- There were updates to the following tools:
perf annotate perf diff perf inject perf kvm perf list perf maps perf parse perf probe perf record perf report perf script perf stat perf test perf trace
- And a lot of other changes: please see the shortlog and Git log for more details"

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-5.5-20191119' 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:
x86/insn:
Adrian Hunter:
- Add some more Intel instructions to the opcode map:
cldemote, encls, enclu, enclv, enqcmd, enqcmds, movdir64b, movdiri, pconfig, tpause, umonitor, umwait, wbnoinvd.
- The instruction decoding can be tested using the perf tools' "x86 instruction decoder - new instructions" test as folllows:
$ perf test -v "new " 2>&1 | grep -i cldemote Decoded ok: 0f 1c 00 cldemote (%eax) Decoded ok: 0f 1c 05 78 56 34 12 cldemote 0x12345678 Decoded ok: 0f 1c 84 c8 78 56 34 12 cldemote 0x12345678(%eax,%ecx,8) Decoded ok: 0f 1c 00 cldemote (%rax) Decoded ok: 41 0f 1c 00 cldemote (%r8) Decoded ok: 0f 1c 04 25 78 56 34 12 cldemote 0x12345678 Decoded ok: 0f 1c 84 c8 78 56 34 12 cldemote 0x12345678(%rax,%rcx,8) Decoded ok: 41 0f 1c 84 c8 78 56 34 12 cldemote 0x12345678(%r8,%rcx,8) $ perf test -v "new " 2>&1 | grep -i tpause Decoded ok: 66 0f ae f3 tpause %ebx Decoded ok: 66 0f ae f3 tpause %ebx Decoded ok: 66 41 0f ae f0 tpause %r8d
callchains:
Adrian Hunter:
- Fix segfault in thread__resolve_callchain_sample().
perf probe:
- Line fixes to show only lines where probes can be used with 'perf probe -L', and when reporting them via 'perf probe -l'.
- Support multiprobe events.
perf scripts python:
Adrian Hunter:
- Fix use of TRUE with SQLite < 3.23 in exported-sql-viewer.py.
perf maps:
- Trim 'struct map' by removing the rb_node member for sorting by map name, as that is only needed for processing kernel maps, and only when classifying symbols by section at load time. Sort them by name using qsort() and do lookups using bsearch() when map_groups__find_by_name() is used.
perf parse:
Ian Rogers:
- Report initial event parsing error, providing a less cryptic message to state that a PMU wasn't found in the system.
perf vendor events:
James Clark:
- Fix commas so that PMU event files for arm64, power8 and power nine become valid JSON.
libtraceevent:
Konstantin Khlebnikov:
- Fix parsing of event %o and %X argument types.

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:
- Add branch type profiling/tracing support. (Jin Yao)
- Add the PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR ABI to allow the tracing/profiling of physical memory addresses, where the PMU supports it. (Kan Liang)
- Export some PMU capability details in the new /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/caps/ sysfs directory. (Andi Kleen)
- Aux data fixes and updates (Will Deacon)
- kprobes fixes and updates (Masami Hiramatsu)
- AMD uncore PMU driver fixes and updates (Janakarajan Natarajan)
On the tooling side, here's a (limited!) list of highlights - there were many other changes that I could not list, see the shortlog and git history for details:
UI improvements:
- Implement a visual marker for fused x86 instructions in the annotate TUI browser, available now in 'perf report', more work needed to have it available as well in 'perf top' (Jin Yao)
Further explanation from one of Jin's patches:
│ ┌──cmpl $0x0,argp_program_version_hook 81.93 │ ├──je 20 │ │ lock cmpxchg %esi,0x38a9a4(%rip) │ │↓ jne 29 │ │↓ jmp 43 11.47 │20:└─→cmpxch %esi,0x38a999(%rip)
That means the cmpl+je is a fused instruction pair and they should be considered together.
- Record the branch type and then show statistics and info about in callchain entries (Jin Yao)
Example from one of Jin's patches:
# perf record -g -j any,save_type # perf report --branch-history --stdio --no-children
38.50% div.c:45 [.] main div | ---main div.c:42 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:2) compute_flag div.c:28 (cycles:2) compute_flag div.c:27 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:1) rand rand.c:28 (cycles:1) rand rand.c:28 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:1) __random random.c:298 (cycles:1) __random random.c:297 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M cycles:1) __random random.c:295 (cycles:1) __random random.c:295 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M cycles:1) __random random.c:295 (cycles:1) __random random.c:295 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:9)
namespaces support:
- Add initial support for namespaces, using setns to access files in namespaces, grabbing their build-ids, etc. (Krister Johansen)
perf trace enhancements:
- Beautify pkey_{alloc,free,mprotect} arguments in 'perf trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Add initial 'clone' syscall args beautifier in 'perf trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Ignore 'fd' and 'offset' args for MAP_ANONYMOUS in 'perf trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Beautifiers for the 'cmd' arg of several ioctl types, including: sound, DRM, KVM, vhost virtio and perf_events. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Add PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN and PERF_RECORD_MMAP[2] to 'perf data' CTF conversion, allowing CTF trace visualization tools to show callchains and to resolve symbols (Geneviève Bastien)
- Beautify the fcntl syscall, which is an interesting one in the sense that infrastructure had to be put in place to change the formatters of some arguments according to the value in a previous one, i.e. cmd dictates how arg and the syscall return will be formatted. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
perf stat enhancements:
- Use group read for event groups in 'perf stat', reducing overhead when groups are defined in the event specification, i.e. when using {} to enclose a list of events, asking them to be read at the same time, e.g.: "perf stat -e '{cycles,instructions}'" (Jiri Olsa)
pipe mode improvements:
- Process tracing data in 'perf annotate' pipe mode (David Carrillo-Cisneros)
- Add header record types to pipe-mode, now this command:
$ perf record -o - -e cycles sleep 1 | perf report --stdio --header
Will show the same as in non-pipe mode, i.e. involving a perf.data file (David Carrillo-Cisneros)
Vendor specific hardware event support updates/enhancements:
- Update POWER9 vendor events tables (Sukadev Bhattiprolu)
- Add POWER9 PMU events Sukadev (Bhattiprolu)
- Support additional POWER8+ PVR in PMU mapfile (Shriya)
- Add Skylake server uncore JSON vendor events (Andi Kleen)
- Support exporting Intel PT data to sqlite3 with python perf scripts, this is in addition to the postgresql support that was already there (Adrian Hunter)"

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.14-20170814' 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:
Infrastructure changes:
- Do not consider empty files as valid srclines (Milian Wolff)
- Fix wrong size in perf_record_mmap for last kernel module, which resulted in erroneous symbol resolution in at least s390x (Thomas Richter)
- Add missing newline to expr parser error messages (Andi Kleen)
- Fix saved values rbtree lookup in 'perf stat' (Andi Kleen)
- Add support for shell based tests in 'perf test', add a few that run 'perf probe', 'perf trace', using kprobes, uprobes to check the output of those tools and the effects on the system, checking, for instance, DWARF backtraces from uprobes (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Arch specific changes:
- Add ppc64le to audit uname list in the python scripting support (Naveen N. Rao)
- Update POWER9 vendor events tables (Sukadev Bhattiprolu)
- Fix module symbol adjustment for s390x (Thomas Richter)
