Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.17-2025-08-01' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools

Pull perf tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
"Build-ID processing goodies:

Build-IDs are content based hashes to link regions of memory to ELF
files in post processing. They have been available in distros for
quite a while:

$ file /bin/bash
/bin/bash: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV),
dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2,
BuildID[sha1]=707a1c670cd72f8e55ffedfbe94ea98901b7ce3a,
for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, stripped

It is possible to ask the kernel to get it from mmap executable
backing storage at time they are being put in place and send it as
metadata at that moment to have in perf.data.

Prefer that across the board to speed up 'record' time - it post
processes the samples to find binaries touched by any samples and
to save them with build-ID. It can skip reading build-ID in
userspace if it comes from the kernel.

perf record:

* Make --buildid-mmap default. The kernel can generate MMAP2 events
with a build-ID from ELF header. Use that by default instead of using
inode and device ID to identify binaries. It also can be disabled
with --no-buildid-mmap.

* Use BPF for -u/--uid option to sample processes belong to a user.
BPF can track user processes more accurately and the existing logic
often fails to get the list of processes due to race with reading the
/proc filesystem.

* Generate PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA when it profiles BPF programs and
they have variables starting with "bpf_metadata_". This will help to
identify BPF objects used in the profile. This has been supported in
bpftool for some time and allows the recording of metadata such as
commit hashes, versions, etc, that now gets recorded in perf.data as
well.

* Collect list of DSOs touched in the sample callchains as well as in
the sample itself. This would increase the processing time at the end
of record, but can improve the data quality.

perf stat:

* Add a new 'drm' pseudo-PMU support like in 'hwmon'. It can collect
DRM usage stats using fdinfo in /proc.

On my Intel laptop, it shows like below:

$ perf list drm
...

drm:
drm-active-stolen-system0
[Total memory active in one or more engines. Unit: drm_i915]
drm-active-system0
[Total memory active in one or more engines. Unit: drm_i915]

1.002086194 seconds time elapsed

perf list

* Add description for software events. The description is in JSON format
and the event parser now can handle the software events like others
(for example, it's case-insensitive and subject to wildcard matching).

$ perf list software

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

software:
alignment-faults
[Number of kernel handled memory alignment faults. Unit: software]
bpf-output
[An event used by BPF programs to write to the perf ring buffer. Unit: software]
cgroup-switches
[Number of context switches to a task in a different cgroup. Unit: software]
context-switches
[Number of context switches [This event is an alias of cs]. Unit: software]
cpu-clock
[Per-CPU high-resolution timer based event. Unit: software]
cpu-migrations
[Number of times a process has migrated to a new CPU [This event is an alias of migrations]. Unit: software]
cs
[Number of context switches [This event is an alias of context-switches]. Unit: software]
dummy
[A placeholder event that doesn't count anything. Unit: software]
emulation-faults
[Number of kernel handled unimplemented instruction faults handled through emulation. Unit: software]
faults
[Number of page faults [This event is an alias of page-faults]. Unit: software]
major-faults
[Number of major page faults. Major faults require I/O to handle. Unit: software]
migrations
[Number of times a process has migrated to a new CPU [This event is an alias of cpu-migrations]. Unit: software]
minor-faults
[Number of minor page faults. Minor faults don't require I/O to handle. Unit: software]
page-faults
[Number of page faults [This event is an alias of faults]. Unit: software]
task-clock
[Per-task high-resolution timer based event. Unit: software]

perf ftrace:

* Add -e/--events option to perf ftrace latency to measure latency
between the two events instead of a function.

$ sudo perf ftrace latency -ab -e i915_request_wait_begin,i915_request_wait_end --hide-empty -- sleep 1
# DURATION | COUNT | GRAPH |

# statistics (in usec)
total time: 194915
avg time: 6961
max time: 12855
min time: 373
count: 28

* Add new function graph tracer options (--graph-opts) to display more
info like arguments and return value. They will be passed to the
kernel ftrace directly.

$ sudo perf ftrace -G vfs_write --graph-opts retval,retaddr
# tracer: function_graph

5) 0.845 us | } /* _raw_spin_lock_irqsave ret=0x292 */
...

Misc:

* Add perf archive --exclude-buildids <FILE> option to skip some binaries.
The format of the FILE should be same as an output of perf buildid-list.

* Get rid of dependency of libcrypto. It was just to get SHA-1 hash so
implement it directly like in the kernel. A side effect is that it
needs -fno-strict-aliasing compiler option (again, like in the kernel).

* Convert all shell script tests to use bash"

perf tp_pmu: Factor existing tracepoint logic to new file

Start the creation of a tracepoint PMU abstraction. Tracepoint events

perf build: Specify shellcheck should use bash

When someone has a global shellcheckrc file, for example at
~/.config/shellcheckrc, with the directive 'shell=sh', building perf
will fail with many shellcheck errors like:

Passing the '-s bash' option ensures that it runs correctly regardless
of a developers global configuration.

This patch adds '-s bash' and other options to the SHELLCHECK variable
in Makefile.perf and makes use of the variable consistently.

perf util: add a basic SHA-1 implementation

SHA-1 can be written in fewer than 100 lines of code. Just add a basic
SHA-1 implementation so that there's no need to use an external library
or try to pull in the kernel's SHA-1 implementation. The kernel's SHA-1
implementation is not really intended to be pulled into userspace
programs in the way that it was proposed to do so for perf
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250521225307.743726-3-yuzhuo@google.com/),
and it's also likely to undergo some refactoring in the future. There's
no need to tie userspace tools to it.

Include a test for sha1() in the util test suite.

perf trace: Split BPF skel code to util/bpf_trace_augment.c

And make builtin-trace.c less conditional. Dummy functions will be
called when BUILD_BPF_SKEL=0 is used. This makes the builtin-trace.c
slightly smaller and simpler by removing the skeleton and its helpers.

The conditional guard of trace__init_syscalls_bpf_prog_array_maps() is
changed from the HAVE_BPF_SKEL to HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT as it doesn't
have a skeleton in the code directly. And a dummy function is added so
that it can be called unconditionally. The function will succeed only
if the both conditions are true.

Do not include trace_augment.h from the BPF code and move the definition
of TRACE_AUG_MAX_BUF to the BPF directly.

perf drm_pmu: Add a tool like PMU to expose DRM information

DRM clients expose information through usage stats as documented in
Documentation/gpu/drm-usage-stats.rst (available online at

PMU, similar to the hwmon PMU, that exposes DRM information. For
example on a tigerlake laptop:

As with the hwmon PMU, high numbered PMU types are used to encode
multiple possible "DRM" PMUs. The appropriate fdinfo is found by
scanning /proc and filtering which fdinfos to read with stat. To avoid
some unneeding scanning, events not starting with "drm-" are
ignored. The patch builds on commit 57e13264dcea ("perf pmus:
Restructure pmu_read_sysfs to scan fewer PMUs") and later so that only
if full wild carding is being done, the PMU starts with "drm_" or the
event starts with "drm-" will /proc be scanned. That is there should
be little to no cost in this PMU unless DRM events are requested.

perf mem/c2c:

- Add 'op', 'cache', 'snoop', 'dtlb' output fields

- Add support for 'ldlat' on AMD IBS (Instruction Based Sampling)

perf ftrace:

- Use process/session specific trace settings instead of messing with
the global ftrace knobs

perf trace:

- Implement syscall summary in BPF

- Support --summary-mode=cgroup

- Always print return value for syscalls returning a pid

- The rseq and set_robust_list don't return a pid, just -errno

perf lock contention:

perf test:

- Hybrid improvements for metric value validation test

- Fix LBR test by ignoring idle task

- Add AMD IBS sw filter ana d'ldlat' tests

- Add 'perf trace --summary-mode=cgroup' test

- Add tests for the various language symbol demanglers

Miscellaneous:

- Allow specifying the cpu an event will be tied using '-e
event/cpu=N/'

- Sync various headers with the kernel sources

- Add annotations to use clang's -Wthread-safety and fix some
problems it detected

- Make dump_stack() use perf's symbol resolution to provide better
backtraces

- Intel TPEBS support cleanups and fixes. TPEBS stands for Timed PEBS
(Precision Event-Based Sampling), that adds timing info, the
retirement latency of instructions

- Various memory allocation (some detected by ASAN) and reference
counting fixes

- Add a 8-byte aligned PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED2 to replace
PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED

- Skip unsupported event types in perf.data files, don't stop when
finding one

- Improve lookups using hashmaps and binary searches"

perf trace: Implement syscall summary in BPF

When -s/--summary option is used, it doesn't need (augmented) arguments
of syscalls. Let's skip the augmentation and load another small BPF
program to collect the statistics in the kernel instead of copying the
data to the ring-buffer to calculate the stats in userspace. This will
be much more light-weight than the existing approach and remove any lost
events.

Let's add a new option --bpf-summary to control this behavior. I cannot
make it default because there's no way to get e_machine in the BPF which
is needed for detecting different ABIs like 32-bit compat mode.

No functional changes intended except for no more LOST events. :)
