Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.3-1-2023-02-22' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux

Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
"Miscellaneous:

- Add Ian Rogers to MAINTAINERS as a perf tools reviewer.

- Add support for retire latency feature (pipeline stall of a
instruction compared to the previous one, in cycles) present on
some Intel processors.

- Add 'perf c2c' report option to show false sharing with adjacent
cachelines, to be used in machines with cacheline prefetching,
where accesses to a cacheline brings the next one too.

- Skip 'perf test bpf' when the required kernel-debuginfo package
isn't installed.

- Avoid d3-flame-graph package dependency in 'perf script flamegraph',
making this feature more generally available.

- Add JSON metric events to present CPI stall cycles in Power10.

- Assorted improvements/refactorings on the JSON metrics parsing
code.

perf lock contention:

- Add -o/--lock-owner option:

$ sudo ./perf lock contention -abo -- ./perf bench sched pipe
# Running 'sched/pipe' benchmark:
# Executed 1000000 pipe operations between two processes

Total time: 4.766 [sec]

4.766540 usecs/op

1 8.25 us 8.25 us 8.25 us 1583144 sched-pipe
1 2.03 us 2.03 us 2.03 us 5068 chrome

The owner is unknown in most cases. Filtering only for the
mutex locks, it will more likely get the owners.

- -S/--callstack-filter is to limit display entries having the given
string in the callstack:

$ sudo ./perf lock contention -abv -S net sleep 1
...

Please note that to have the -b option (BPF) working above one has
to build with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1.

- Add more 'perf test' entries to test these new features.

perf script:

- Add 'cgroup' field for 'perf script' output:

$ perf record --all-cgroups -- true
$ perf script -F comm,pid,cgroup
true 337112 /user.slice/user-657345.slice/user@657345.service/...
true 337112 /user.slice/user-657345.slice/user@657345.service/...
true 337112 /user.slice/user-657345.slice/user@657345.service/...
true 337112 /user.slice/user-657345.slice/user@657345.service/...

- Add support for showing branch speculation information in 'perf
script' and in the 'perf report' raw dump (-D).

perf record:

- Fix 'perf record' segfault with --overwrite and --max-size.

perf test/bench:

- Switch basic BPF filtering test to use syscall tracepoint to avoid
the variable number of probes inserted when using the previous
probe point (do_epoll_wait) that happens on different CPU
architectures.

- Fix DWARF unwind test by adding non-inline to expected function in
a backtrace.

- Use 'grep -c' where the longer form 'grep | wc -l' was being used.

- Add getpid and execve benchmarks to 'perf bench syscall'.

Intel PT:

- Add support for synthesizing "cycle" events from Intel PT traces as
we support "instruction" events when Intel PT CYC packets are
available. This enables much more accurate profiles than when using
the regular 'perf record -e cycles' (the default) when the workload
lasts for very short periods (<10ms).

- .plt symbol handling improvements, better handling IBT (in the past
MPX) done in the context of decoding Intel PT processor traces,
IFUNC symbols on x86_64, static executables, understanding .plt.got
symbols on x86_64.

- Add a 'perf test' to test symbol resolution, part of the .plt
improvements series, this tests things like symbol size in contexts
where only the symbol start is available (kallsyms), etc.

- Better handle auxtrace/Intel PT data when using pipe mode (perf
record sleep 1|perf report).

- Fix symbol lookup with kcore with multiple segments match stext,
getting the symbol resolution to just show DSOs as unknown.

ARM:

- Timestamp improvements for ARM64 systems with ETMv4 (Embedded Trace
Macrocell v4).

- Ensure ARM64 CoreSight timestamps don't go backwards.

- Document that ARM64 SPE (Statistical Profiling Extension) is used
with 'perf c2c/mem'.

- Add raw decoding for ARM64 SPEv1.2 previous branch address.

- Update neoverse-n2-v2 ARM vendor events (JSON tables): topdown L1,
TLB, cache, branch, PE utilization and instruction mix metrics.

- Update decoder code for OpenCSD version 1.4, on ARM64 systems.

- Fix command line auto-complete of CPU events on aarch64.

Build:

- Fix 'perf probe' and 'perf test' when libtraceevent isn't linked,
as several tests use tracepoints, those should be skipped.

- More fallout fixes for the removal of tools/lib/traceevent/.

- Fix build error when linking with libpfm"

perf script: Show branch speculation info

Show the branch speculation info if provided by the branch recording
hardware feature. This can be useful for optimizing code further.

The speculation info is appended to the end of the list of fields so any
existing tools that use "/" as a delimiter for access fields via an index
remain unaffected. Also show "-" instead of "N/A" when speculation info
is unavailable because "/" is used as the field separator.

E.g.

$ perf record -j any,u,save_type ./test_branch
$ perf script --fields brstacksym

Before:

[...]
check_match+0x60/strcmp+0x0/P/-/-/0/CALL
do_lookup_x+0x3c5/check_match+0x0/P/-/-/0/CALL
[...]

After:

[...]
check_match+0x60/strcmp+0x0/P/-/-/0/CALL/NON_SPEC_CORRECT_PATH
do_lookup_x+0x3c5/check_match+0x0/P/-/-/0/CALL/NON_SPEC_CORRECT_PATH
[...]

The bitfield swapping scheme used duing sample parsing has changed
because of the addition of new branch flags, namely "spec", "new_type"
and "priv". Earlier, these were all part of the "reserved" field but
now, each of these fields get swapped separately. Change the expected
flag values accordingly for the test to pass.

E.g.

$ perf test -v 27

Before:

27: Sample parsing :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 61979
parsing failed for sample_type 0x800
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
Sample parsing: FAILED!

After:

27: Sample parsing :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 63293
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
Sample parsing: Ok

Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.2-1-2022-12-16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux

Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
"Libraries:

- Drop the old copy of libtraceevent in tools/lib/traceevent/ now
that all major distros ship it from its external repository.

This is now just another feature detection, emitting a warning when
the libtraceevent-dev[el] package isn't installed, disabling the
build of perf features and tools that strictly require parsing
things from tracefs while keeping the core functionality present
and working with a subset of the events, the most used ones like
CPU cycles, hardware cache and also vendor events, etc.

This was tested with lots of containers for Fedora, Debian,
OpenSUSE, Alpine Linux, Ubuntu, with cross builds, etc.

Build:

- Update to C standard to gnu11, like was done for the kernel.

- Install the tools/lib/ libraries locally instead of having headers
searched directly from the source code directories, to help the
cases where we can build either from in-kernel source libraries or
from the same library shipped as a distro package, as is the case
with libbpf and was the case with libtraceevent.

perf stat:

- Do not delay the workload with --delay, the delay is just for
starting to count the events, to skip noise at workload startup.

- When we have events for each cgroup, the metric should be printed
for each cgroup separately.

$ perf stat -a --for-each-cgroup system.slice,user.slice --metric-only sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

GHz insn per cycle branch-misses of all branches
system.slice 3.792 0.61 3.24%
user.slice 3.661 2.32 0.37%

- Fix printing field separator in CSV metrics output.

- Fix --metric-only --json output.

- Fix summary output in CSV with --metric-only.

- Update event group check for support of uncore event.

perf test:

- Stop requiring a C toolchain in shell tests, instead add a workload
option that has all the previously C snippets built as part of
'perf test -w' that then get used in the 'perf test' shell scripts.

- Add event group test for events in multiple PMUs

- The "kernel lock contention analysis" test should not print
warnings in quiet mode.

- Add attr tests for ARM64's new VG register.

- Fix record test on KVM guests, as using precise flag with the
br_inst_retired.near_call event causes the test fail on KVM guests,
even when the guests have PMU forwarding enabled and the event
itself is supported, so just remove the precise flag from the
event.

- Add mechanism for skipping attr tests on specific kernel versions
where it is known that these checks will fail.

- Skip watchpoint tests if no watchpoints available.

- Add more Intel PT 'perf test' entries: hybrid CPUs, split the
packet decoder into a suite of subtests.

perf script:

- Introduce task analyzer python script, where one first records some events:

Recording can be done in two ways:

$ perf script record tasks-analyzer -- sleep 10
$ perf record -e sched:sched_switch -a -- sleep 10

The script can parse any perf.data files, as long as it has
sched:sched_switch events, other events will be ignored.

The most simple report use case is to just call the script without
arguments.

Runtime is the time the task was running on the CPU, Time Out-In is
the time between the process being scheduled *out* and scheduled
back *in*. So the last time span between two executions:

$ perf script report tasks-analyzer
Switched-In Switched-Out CPU PID TID Comm Runtime Time Out-In

perf record:

- Add remaining branch filters: "no_cycles", "no_flags" & "hw_index",
to be used with hardware such as Intel's LBR that allows things
like stitching stacks of two samples to overcome the limits of the
number of LBR registers.

Symbol resolution:

- Handle .debug files created with 'objcopy --only-keep-debug', where
program headers are zeroed and thus can't be used for adjustments,
use the info in the runtime_ss (runtime ELF) instead.

perf trace:

- Add BPF based augmenter for the 'perf_event_open's 'struct
perf_event_attr' argument.

- Add BPF based augmenter for the 'clock_gettime's 'struct timespec'
argument.

- In both cases the syscall tracepoint has just the pointer value, we
need to hook a BPF program to collect the pointer contents, and
then, in userspace, pretty print it in 'perf trace'.

perf list:

- Introduce JSON output of events.

- Streamline how the expression specifying what events should be
shown is handled, fixing several corner cases, such as the metric
filter that is specified as a glob but was using strstr().

perf probe:

- Fix to avoid crashing if DW_AT_decl_file is NULL, coping with clang
generating DWARF5 like that.

- Use dwarf_attr_integrate() as generic DWARF attr accessor as it
supersedes dwarf_attr(), supporting abstact origin DIEs.

perf inject:

- Set PERF_RECORD_MISC_BUILD_ID_SIZE in the PERF_RECORD_HEADER_BUILD_ID
so that perf.data readers can get the real build-id size and avoid
trailing zeroes.

perf data:

- Add tracepoint fields when converting a perf.data file to JSON.

arm64:

- Fix mksyscalltbl, don't lose syscalls due to sort -nu.

- Add Arm Neoverse V2 PMU events.

riscv:

- Add riscv sbi firmware std event files.

- Add Sifive U74 vendor events (JSON) file.

- Add some more events and metrics for Alderlake/Alderlake-N.

Documentation:

- Add data documentation for the PMU structs in the C source code.

Miscellaneous:

- Periodic sanitization of headers, adding missing includes, removing
needless ones, creating new ones, etc.

- Use sig_atomic_t for signal handlers to avoid undefined behaviour
in all perf tools.

- Fixes for libbpf 1.0+ compatibility (maps, etc) on 'perf trace' BPF
examples.

- Remove some old perf bpf examples, leave the best ones that
demonstrate how to associate BPF functions to points in the kernel.

- Make quiet mode consistent between tools.

- Use dedicated non-atomic clear/set bit helpers.

- Use "grep -E" instead of "egrep" as recommended by warning emitted
by GNU grep since at least version 3.8.

- Complete list of supported subcommands in the 'perf daemon' help
message.

- Update John Garry's email address for arm64 perf tooling on the
MAINTAINERS file, he moved from Huawei to Oracle"

perf util: Add host_is_bigendian to util.h

Avoid libtraceevent dependency for tep_is_bigendian or trace-event.h
dependency for bigendian. Add a new host_is_bigendian to util.h, using
the compiler defined __BYTE_ORDER__ when available.

Committer notes:

Added:

#else /* !__BYTE_ORDER__ */

On that nested #ifdef block, as per Namhyung's suggestion.
