Add core events taken from Section 1.4 "Core Performance Monitor Counters" of the Performance Monitor Counters for AMD Family 1Ah Model 00h-0Fh Processors document available at the link below. This constitutes events which capture information on op dispatch, execution and retirement, branch prediction, L1 and L2 cache activity, TLB activity, etc. Reviewed-by:

Syscall augmentation is causing samples not to be written to the perf.data file with "perf trace record". Disabling augmentation is sub-optimal, but it beats having a totally broken perf trace record.

Perf event names aren't case sensitive. For sysfs events the entire directory of events is read then iterated comparing names in a case insensitive way, most often to see if an event is present. Consider: $ perf stat -e inst_retired.any true The event inst_retired.any may be present in any PMU, so every PMU's sysfs events are loaded and then searched with strcasecmp to see if any match. This event is only present on the cpu PMU as a JSON event so a lot of events were loaded from sysfs unnecessarily just to prove an event didn't exist there. This change avoids loading all the events by assuming sysfs event names are always either lower or uppercase. It uses file exists and only loads the events when the desired event is present. For the example above, the number of openat calls measured by 'perf trace' on a tigerlake laptop goes from 325 down to 255. The reduction will be larger for machines with many PMUs, particularly replicated uncore PMUs. Ensure pmu_aliases_parse() is called before all uses of the aliases list, but remove some "pmu->sysfs_aliases_loaded" tests as they are now part of the function. Reviewed-by:

Being either lower or upper case means event name probes can avoid scanning the directory doing case insensitive comparisons, just the lower or upper case version of the name can be checked for existence. For the majority of PMUs event names are all lower case, upper case names are present on S390. Reviewed-by:

Allow events/aliases to be eagerly loaded for a PMU. Factor out the pmu_aliases_parse to allow this. Parse a test event and check it configures the attribute as expected. There is overlap with the parse-events tests, but this test is done with a PMU created in a temp directory and doesn't rely on PMUs in sysfs. Reviewed-by:

Ian Rogers authored
In tests/pmu.c, make a common utility that creates a PMU in a mkdtemp directory and uses regular PMU parsing logic to load that PMU. Formats must still be eagerly loaded as by default the PMU code assumes devices are going to be in sysfs. In util/pmu.[ch], hide perf_pmu__format_parse but add the eager argument to perf_pmu__lookup called by perf_pmus__add_test_pmu. Later patches will eagerly load other non-sysfs files when eager loading is enabled. In tests/pmu.c, rather than manually constructing a list of term arguments, just use the term parsing code from a string. Add more comments and debug logging. Reviewed-by:

I found that the debug build was a slowed down a lot by the maps lock code since it checks the invariants whenever it gets the pointer to the lock. This means it checks twice the invariants before and after the access. Instead, let's move the checking code within the lock area but after any modification and remove it from the read paths. This would remove (more than) half of the maps lock overhead. The time for perf report with a huge data file (200k+ of MMAP2 events).

When the config validation functions are warning about ETMv3, they do it based on "not ETMv4". If the drivers aren't all loaded or the hardware doesn't support Coresight it will appear as "not ETMv4" and then Perf will print the error message "... not supported in ETMv3 ..." which is wrong and confusing. cs_etm_is_etmv4() is also misnamed because it also returns true for ETE because ETE has a superset of the ETMv4 metadata files. Although this was always done in the correct order so it wasn't a bug. Improve all this by making a single get version function which also handles not present as a separate case. Change the ETMv3 error message to only print when ETMv3 is detected, and add a new error message for the not present case. Reviewed-by:

Most functions already have cs_etm_pmu, so it's a bit neater to pass it through rather than itr only to convert it again. Signed-off-by:

James Clark authored
The perf_cpu struct makes some iterators simpler and avoids some mistakes with interchanging CPU IDs with indexes etc. At the moment in this file the conversion to an integer is done somewhere in the middle of the call tree. Change it to delay the conversion to an int until the leaf functions. Some of the usage patterns are duplicated, so instead of changing them all, make cs_etm_get_ro() more reusable and use that everywhere. cs_etm_get_ro() didn't return an error before, but return one now so that it can also be used where an error is needed. Continue to ignore the error where it was already ignored. Use cs_etm_pmu_path_exists() instead of cs_etm_get_ro() in cs_etm_is_etmv4() because cs_etm_get_ro() prints a warning, but path exists is sufficient for this use case. Signed-off-by:

I sometimes see ("unknown type") in the result and it was because it didn't check the type of stack variables properly during the instruction tracking. The stack can carry constant values (without type info) and if the target instruction is accessing the stack location, it resulted in the "unknown type". Maybe we could pick one of integer types for the constant, but it doesn't really mean anything useful. Let's just drop the stack slot if it doesn't have a valid type info. Here's an example how it got the unknown type. Note that 0xffffff48 = -0xb8. ----------------------------------------------------------- find data type for 0xffffff48(reg6) at ...

The instruction tracking should be the same for the both registers. Just do it once and compare the result with multi regs as with the previous patches.

The following instruction pattern is used to access a global variable. mov $0x231c0, %rax movsql %edi, %rcx mov -0x7dc94ae0(,%rcx,8), %rcx cmpl $0x0, 0xa60(%rcx,%rax,1) <<<--- here The first instruction set the address of the per-cpu variable (here, it is 'runqueues' of type 'struct rq'). The second instruction seems like a cpu number of the per-cpu base. The third instruction get the base offset of per-cpu area for that cpu. The last instruction compares the value of the per-cpu variable at the offset of 0xa60. Signed-off-by:

Like per-cpu base offset array, sometimes it accesses the global variable directly using the offset. Allow this type of instructions as long as it finds a global variable for the address. movslq %edi, %rcx mov -0x7dc94ae0(,%rcx,8), %rcx <<<--- here As %rcx has a valid type (i.e. array index) from the first instruction, it will be checked by the first case in check_matching_type(). But as it's not a pointer type, the match will fail. But in this case, it should check if it accesses the kernel global array variable. Signed-off-by:

Currently it looks up global variables from the current CU using address and name. But it sometimes fails to find a variable as the variable can come from a different CU - but it's still strange it failed to find a declaration for some reason. Anyway, it can collect all global variables from all CU once and then lookup them later on. This slightly improves the success rate of my test data set. Signed-off-by:

We can't default to doing parallel tests as there are tests that compete for the same resources and thus clash, for instance tests that put in place 'perf probe' probes, that clean the probes without regard to other tests needs, ARM64 coresight tests, Intel PT ones, etc. So reintroduce --p/--parallel and make -S/--sequential the default. We need to come up with infrastructure that state which tests can't run in parallel because they need exclusive access to some resource, something as simple as "probes" that would then avoid 'perf probe' tests from running while other such test is running, or make the tests more resilient, till then we can't use parallel mode as default. While at it, document all these options in the 'perf test' man page. Reported-by:

Memory sanitizer lacks an interceptor for scandirat, reporting all memory it allocates as uninitialized. Memory sanitizer has a scandir interceptor so use the fallback function in this case. This allows 'perf test' to run under memory sanitizer. Additional notes from Ian on running in this mode: Note, as msan needs to instrument memory allocations libraries need to be compiled with it. I lacked the msan built libraries and so built with: ``` $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/perf DEBUG=1 EXTRA_CFLAGS="-O0 -g -fno-omit-frame-pointer -fsanitize=memory -fsanitize-memory-track-origins" CC=clang CXX=clang++ HOSTCC=clang NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 NO_LIBELF=1 BUILD_BPF_SKEL=0 NO_LIBPFM=1 ``` oh, I disabled libbpf here as the bpf system call also lacks msan interceptors.

dso__disassemble_filename() tries to get the filename for objdump (or capstone) using build-id. But I found sometimes it didn't disassemble some functions. It turned out that those functions belong to a DSO which has no binary type set. It seems it sets the binary type for some special files only - like kernel (kallsyms or kcore) or BPF images. And there's a logic to skip dso with DSO_BINARY_TYPE__NOT_FOUND. As it's checked the build-id cache link, it should set the binary type as DSO_BINARY_TYPE__BUILD_ID_CACHE.

It was requested that RISC-V be able to add events to the perf tool so the PMU driver didn't need to map legacy events to config encodings: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240217005738.3744121-1-atishp@rivosinc.com/ This change makes the priority of events specified without a PMU the same as those specified with a PMU, namely sysfs and JSON events are checked first before using the legacy encoding. The hw_term is made more generic as a hardware_event that encodes a pair of string and int value, allowing parse_events_multi_pmu_add to fall back on a known encoding when the sysfs/JSON adding fails for core events.

New behavior is to look for sysfs/JSON events first on all PMUs, for core PMUs add a legacy event if the sysfs/JSON event isn't present. This is done so that there is consistency with how event names in terms are handled and their prioritization of sysfs/JSON over legacy. It may make sense to use a legacy cache event name as an event name on a non-core PMU so we should allow it. Signed-off-by:
