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

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"With over 300 commits it's been a busy cycle - with most of the work
concentrated on the tooling side (as it should).

The main kernel side enhancements were:

- Add per event callchain limit: Recently we introduced a sysctl to
tune the max-stack for all events for which callchains were
requested:

$ sysctl kernel.perf_event_max_stack
kernel.perf_event_max_stack = 127

Now this patch introduces a way to configure this per event, i.e.
this becomes possible:

$ perf record -e sched:*/max-stack=2/ -e block:*/max-stack=10/ -a

allowing finer tuning of how much buffer space callchains use.

This uses an u16 from the reserved space at the end, leaving
another u16 for future use.

There has been interest in even finer tuning, namely to control the
max stack for kernel and userspace callchains separately. Further
discussion is needed, we may for instance use the remaining u16 for
that and when it is present, assume that the sample_max_stack
introduced in this patch applies for the kernel, and the u16 left
is used for limiting the userspace callchain (Arnaldo Carvalho de
Melo)

- Optimize AUX event (hardware assisted side-band event) delivery
(Kan Liang)

- Rework Intel family name macro usage (this is partially x86 arch
work) (Dave Hansen)

- Refine and fix Intel LBR support (David Carrillo-Cisneros)

- Add support for Intel 'TopDown' events (Andi Kleen)

- Intel uncore PMU driver fixes and enhancements (Kan Liang)

- ... other misc changes.

Here's an incomplete list of the tooling enhancements (but there's
much more, see the shortlog and the git log for details):

- Support cross unwinding, i.e. collecting '--call-graph dwarf'
perf.data files in one machine and then doing analysis in another
machine of a different hardware architecture. This enables, for
instance, to do:

$ perf record -a --call-graph dwarf

on a x86-32 or aarch64 system and then do 'perf report' on it on a
x86_64 workstation (He Kuang)

- Allow reading from a backward ring buffer (one setup via
sys_perf_event_open() with perf_event_attr.write_backward = 1)
(Wang Nan)

- Finish merging initial SDT (Statically Defined Traces) support, see
cset comments for details about how it all works (Masami Hiramatsu)

- Support attaching eBPF programs to tracepoints (Wang Nan)

- Add demangling of symbols in programs written in the Rust language
(David Tolnay)

- Add support for tracepoints in the python binding, including an
example, that sets up and parses sched:sched_switch events,
tools/perf/python/tracepoint.py (Jiri Olsa)

- Introduce --stdio-color to set up the color output mode selection
in 'annotate' and 'report', allowing emit color escape sequences
when redirecting the output of these tools (Arnaldo Carvalho de
Melo)

- Add 'callindent' option to 'perf script -F', to indent the Intel PT
call stack, making this output more ftrace-like (Adrian Hunter,
Andi Kleen)

- Allow dumping the object files generated by llvm when processing
eBPF scriptlet events (Wang Nan)

- Add stackcollapse.py script to help generating flame graphs (Paolo
Bonzini)

- Add --ldlat option to 'perf mem' to specify load latency for loads
event (e.g. cpu/mem-loads/ ) (Jiri Olsa)

- Tooling support for Intel TopDown counters, recently added to the
kernel (Andi Kleen)"

perf tools: Enable overwrite settings

This patch allows following config terms and option:

Globally setting events to overwrite;

# perf record --overwrite ...

Set specific events to be overwrite or no-overwrite.

# perf record --event cycles/overwrite/ ...
# perf record --event cycles/no-overwrite/ ...

Add missing config terms and update the config term array size because
the longest string length has changed.

For overwritable events, it automatically selects attr.write_backward
since perf requires it to be backward for reading.

Test result:

# perf record --overwrite -e syscalls:*enter_nanosleep* usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.011 MB perf.data (1 samples) ]

perf evlist: Drop redundant evsel->overwrite indicator

evsel->overwrite indicator means an event should be put into
overwritable ring buffer. In current implementation, it equals to
evsel->attr.write_backward. To reduce compliexity, remove
evsel->overwrite, use evsel->attr.write_backward instead.

In addition, in __perf_evsel__open(), if kernel doesn't support
write_backward and user explicitly set it in evsel, don't fallback
like other missing feature, since it is meaningless to fall back to
a forward ring buffer in this case: we are unable to stably read
from an forward overwritable ring buffer.

- Introduce --stdio-color to set up the color output mode selection in

redirecting the output of these tools (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Infrastructure changes:

- Various tweaks to allow the 'perf trace' beautifiers to build without using
kernel headers and in a wider range of Linux distributions/releases
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Stop using kernel source files, instead copy what is needed and
check when the original kernel source file gets modified, warning
the developers about it. This helps in building the tool in older
systems and even in recent ones, for just added kernel features
for which ABI details (struct changes, defines, etc) still are not
available on system headers (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Be consistent in how to use strerror_r, adding a wrapper that makes sure that
it returns a pointer to passed buffer, and using the XSI variant, that is
available in more libc implementations (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Avoid checking code drift on busibox's diff perf intel-pt-decoder, as it
doesn't have the '-I' command line switch to check for regexps
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Add missing headers in various places (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Remove unneeded headers from various other places (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Add feature detection for gelf_getnote(), disabling SDT support if not
present (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fix oddities with GCC 5.3.0 by initializing some variables
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- With those changes in place perf now builds on Alpine Linux 3.4, in addition to
on centos (5, 6, 7), debian (7, 8, experimental), fedora (21, 22, 23, 24, rawhide),
mageia 5, opensuse (13.2, 42.1) and ubuntu (12.04.5, 14.04.4, 15.10, 16.04) and
will be test build on those systems prior to future pull requests.

tools: Introduce str_error_r()

The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that
returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else.

But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the
function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided
buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that
instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine
Linux, where musl libc is used.

So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU
interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that
users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is
returned.

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-20160510' 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:

- Recording 'dwarf' callchains do not need DWARF unwinding support (He Kuang)

- Print recently added perf_event_attr.write_backward bit flag in -vv
verbose mode (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fix incorrect python db-export error message in 'perf script' (Chris Phlipot)

- Fix handling of zero-length symbols (Chris Phlipot)

- perf stat: Scale values by unit before metrics (Andi Kleen)

Infrastructure changes:

- Rewrite strbuf not to die(), making tools using it to check its
return value instead (Masami Hiramatsu)

- Support reading from backward ring buffer, add a 'perf test' entry
for it (Wang Nan)

perf tests: Add test to check backward ring buffer

This test checks reading from backward ring buffer.

Test result:

# ~/perf test 'ring buffer'
45: Test backward reading from ring buffer

perf tests: Add test to check backward ring buffer

This test checks reading from backward ring buffer.

Test result:

# ~/perf test 'ring buffer'
45: Test backward reading from ring buffer : Ok

The test case is a while loop which calls prctl(PR_SET_NAME) multiple
times. Each prctl should issue 2 events: one PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE, one
PERF_RECORD_COMM.

The first round creates a relative large ring buffer (256 pages). It can
afford all events. Read from it and check the count of each type of
events.

The second round creates a small ring buffer (1 page) and makes it
overwritable. Check the correctness of the buffer.
