Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.14-2025-01-21' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools

Pull perf-tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
"There are a lot of changes in the perf tools in this cycle.

build:

- Use generic syscall table to generate syscall numbers on supported
archs

- This also enables to get rid of libaudit which was used for syscall
numbers

- Remove python2 support as it's deprecated for years

- Fix issues on static build with libzstd

perf record:

- Intel-PT supports "aux-action" config term to pause or resume
tracing in the aux-buffer. Users can start the intel_pt event as
"started-paused" and configure other events to control the Intel-PT
tracing:

# perf record --kcore -e intel_pt/aux-action=start-paused/ \
-e syscalls:sys_enter_newuname/aux-action=resume/ \
-e syscalls:sys_exit_newuname/aux-action=pause/ -- uname

This requires kernel support (which was added in v6.13)

perf lock:

- 'perf lock contention' command has an ability to symbolize locks in
dynamically allocated objects using slab cache name when it runs
with BPF. Those dynamic locks would have "&" prefix in the name to
distinguish them from ordinary (static) locks

# perf lock con -abl -E 5 sleep 1
contended total wait max wait avg wait address symbol

2 1.95 us 1.77 us 975 ns ffff9d5e852d3498 &task_struct (mutex)
1 1.18 us 1.18 us 1.18 us ffff9d5e852d3538 &task_struct (mutex)
4 1.12 us 354 ns 279 ns ffff9d5e841ca800 &kmalloc-cg-512 (mutex)
2 859 ns 617 ns 429 ns ffffffffa41c3620 delayed_uprobe_lock (mutex)
3 691 ns 388 ns 230 ns ffffffffa41c0940 pack_mutex (mutex)

This also requires kernel/BPF support (which was added in v6.13)

perf ftrace:

- 'perf ftrace latency' command gets a couple of options to support
linear buckets instead of exponential. Also it's possible to
specify max and min latency for the linear buckets:

# perf ftrace latency -abn -T switch_mm_irqs_off --bucket-range=100 \
--min-latency=200 --max-latency=800 -- sleep 1
# DURATION | COUNT | GRAPH |
0 - 200 ns | 186 | ### |
200 - 300 ns | 256 | ##### |
300 - 400 ns | 364 | ####### |
400 - 500 ns | 223 | #### |
500 - 600 ns | 111 | ## |
600 - 700 ns | 41 | |
700 - 800 ns | 141 | ## |
800 - ... ns | 169 | ### |

# statistics (in nsec)
total time: 2162212
avg time: 967
max time: 16817
min time: 132
count: 2236

- As you can see in the above example, it nows shows the statistics
at the end so that users can see the avg/max/min latencies easily

- 'perf ftrace profile' command has --graph-opts option like 'perf
ftrace trace' so that it can control the tracing behaviors in the
same way. For example, it can limit the function call depth or
threshold

perf script:

- Improve physical memory resolution in 'mem-phys-addr' script by
parsing /proc/iomem file

# perf script mem-phys-addr -- find /
...
Event: mem_inst_retired.all_loads:P
Memory type count percentage
---------------------------------------- ---------- ----------
100000000-85f7fffff : System RAM 8929 69.7
547600000-54785d23f : Kernel data 1240 9.7

100000-89c01fff : System RAM 18 0.1
8a22c000-8df6efff : System RAM 5 0.0

Others:

- 'perf test' gets --runs-per-test option to run the test cases
repeatedly. This would be helpful to see if it's flaky

- Add 'parse_events' method to Python perf extension module, so that
users can use the same event parsing logic in the python code. One
more step towards implementing perf tools in Python. :)

- Support opening tracepoint events without libtraceevent. This will
be helpful if it won't use the tracing data like in 'perf stat'

- Update ARM Neoverse N2/V2 JSON events and metrics"

perf tools: Remove dependency on libaudit

All architectures now support HAVE_SYSCALL_TABLE_SUPPORT, so the flag is
no longer needed. With the removal of the flag, the related
GENERIC_SYSCALL_TABLE can also be removed.

libaudit was only used as a fallback for when HAVE_SYSCALL_TABLE_SUPPORT
was not defined, so libaudit is also no longer needed for any
architecture.

"perf record:

- Enable leader sampling for inherited task events. It was supported
only for system-wide events but the kernel started to support such
a setup since v6.12.

This is to reduce the number of PMU interrupts. The samples of the
leader event will contain counts of other events and no samples
will be generated for the other member events.

$ perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}:S' ${MYPROG}

perf stat:

- Add HWMON PMU support.

The HWMON provides various system information like CPU/GPU
temperature, fan speed and so on. Expose them as PMU events so that
users can see the values using perf stat commands.

$ perf stat -e temp_cpu,fan1 true

Performance counter stats for 'true':

60.00 'C temp_cpu
0 rpm fan1

0.000745382 seconds time elapsed

0.000883000 seconds user
0.000000000 seconds sys

- Display metric threshold in JSON output.

Some metrics define thresholds to classify value ranges. It used to
be in a different color but it won't work for JSON.

Add "metric-threshold" field to the JSON that can be one of "good",
"less good", "nearly bad" and "bad".

# perf stat -a -M TopdownL1 -j true

Build:

- Make libunwind opt-in (LIBUNWIND=1) rather than opt-out.

The perf tools are generally built with libelf and libdw which has
unwinder functionality. The libunwind support predates it and no
need to have duplicate unwinders by default.

- Rename NO_DWARF=1 build option to NO_LIBDW=1 in order to clarify
it's using libdw for handling DWARF information.

Internals:

- Do not set exclude_guest bit in the perf_event_attr by default.

This was causing a trouble in AMD IBS PMU as it doesn't support the
bit. The bit will be set when it's needed later by the fallback
logic. Also update the missing feature detection logic to make sure
not clear supported bits unnecessarily.

- Run perf test in parallel by default and mark flaky tests
"exclusive" to run them serially at the end. Some test numbers are
changed but the test can complete in less than half the time.

JSON vendor events:

- Add AMD Zen 5 events and metrics.

- Add i.MX91 and i.MX95 DDR metrics

- Fix HiSilicon HIP08 Topdown metric name.

- Support compat events on PowerPC"

perf build: Make libunwind opt-in rather than opt-out

Having multiple unwinding libraries makes the perf code harder to
understand and we have unused/untested code paths.

Perf made BPF support an opt-out rather than opt-in feature. As libbpf
has a libelf dependency, elfutils that provides libelf will also
provide libdw. When libdw is present perf will use libdw unwinding
rather than libunwind unwinding even if libunwind support is compiled
in.

Rather than have libunwind built into perf and never used, explicitly
disable the support and make it opt-in.

Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

- Use BPF + BTF to collect and pretty print syscall and tracepoint
arguments in 'perf trace', done as an GSoC activity

- Data-type profiling improvements:

- Cache debuginfo to speed up data type resolution

- Add the 'typecln' sort order, to show which cacheline in a target
is hot or cold. The following shows members in the cfs_rq's first
cache line:

$ perf report -s type,typecln,typeoff -H
...
- 2.67% struct cfs_rq

0.39% struct cfs_rq +0x14 (h_nr_running)
0.02% struct cfs_rq +0x38 (tasks_timeline.rb_leftmost)

- When a typedef resolves to a unnamed struct, use the typedef name

- When a struct has just one basic type field (int, etc), resolve
the type sort order to the name of the struct, not the type of
the field

- Support type folding/unfolding in the data-type annotation TUI

- Fix bitfields offsets and sizes

- Initial support for PowerPC, using libcapstone and the usual
objdump disassembly parsing routines

- Add support for disassembling and addr2line using the LLVM libraries,
speeding up those operations

- Support --addr2line option in 'perf script' as with other tools

- Intel branch counters (LBR event logging) support, only available in
recent Intel processors, for instance, the new "brcntr" field can be
asked from 'perf script' to print the information collected from this
feature:

feature in Intel processors

- Add 'perf ftrace profile' subcommand, using ftrace's function-graph
tracer so that users can see the total, average, max execution time
as well as the number of invocations easily, for instance:

$ sudo perf ftrace profile -G __x64_sys_perf_event_open -- \
perf stat -e cycles -C1 true 2> /dev/null | head
# Total (us) Avg (us) Max (us) Count Function
65.611 65.611 65.611 1 __x64_sys_perf_event_open
30.527 30.527 30.527 1 anon_inode_getfile
30.260 30.260 30.260 1 __anon_inode_getfile
29.700 29.700 29.700 1 alloc_file_pseudo
17.578 17.578 17.578 1 d_alloc_pseudo
17.382 17.382 17.382 1 __d_alloc
16.738 16.738 16.738 1 kmem_cache_alloc_lru
15.686 15.686 15.686 1 perf_event_alloc
14.012 7.006 11.264 2 obj_cgroup_charge

- 'perf sched timehist' improvements, including the addition of
priority showing/filtering command line options

- Varios improvements to the 'perf probe', including 'perf test'
regression testings

- Introduce the 'perf check', initially to check if some feature is
in place, using it in 'perf test'

- Various fixes for 32-bit systems

- Address more leak sanitizer failures

- Fix memory leaks (LBR, disasm lock ops, etc)

- More reference counting fixes (branch_info, etc)

- Constify 'struct perf_tool' parameters to improve code generation
and reduce the chances of having its internals changed, which isn't
expected

- More constifications in various other places

- Add more build tests, including for JEVENTS

- Add more 'perf test' entries ('perf record LBR', pipe/inject,
--setup-filter, 'perf ftrace', 'cgroup sampling', etc)

- Inject build ids for all entries in a call chain in 'perf inject',
not just for the main sample

- Improve the BPF based sample filter, allowing root to setup filters
in bpffs that then can be used by non-root users

- Allow filtering by cgroups with the BPF based sample filter

- Allow a more compact way for 'perf mem report' using the
-T/--type-profile and also provide a --sort option similar to the one
in 'perf report', 'perf top', to setup the sort order manually

- Fix --group behavior in 'perf annotate' when leader has no samples,
where it was not showing anything even when other events in the group
had samples

- Fix spinlock and rwlock accounting in 'perf lock contention'

- Fix libsubcmd fixdep Makefile dependencies

- Improve 'perf ftrace' error message when ftrace isn't available

- Update various Intel JSON vendor event files

- ARM64 CoreSight hardware tracing infrastructure improvements, mostly
not visible to users

- Update power10 JSON events
