Fall back to probing with the current pid if cpu-wide probing fails. This primarily affects the setting of comm_exec flag when the user is un-privileged and /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid > 0. The change to comm_exec can be observed by using -vv with perf record and a kernel that supports comm_exec. Signed-off-by:

Current perf probe --del doesn't work if only CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS=y because it aborts when it fails to open kprobe_events file before checking uprobe_events file.

Keeping track of all the various CPU names is hard enough; adding extra silly names for no reason is just not helping. If we know the base arch name (IvyBridge) then we can do the client/server parts with the well known {,EP,EX} postfixes, no need to remember endless amounts of unrelated and pointless names for this.

This patch exposes two basic events for Ivytown IMC uncore PMU: - cas_count_read: number of full-cache line reads to memory controller - cas_count_write: number of full-cache line writes to memory controller Those events use the same encoding as for SNB-EP, so reuse the same event table. See specification in: http://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/manuals/xeon-e5-2600-v2-uncore-manual.pdf By aggregating all the read and write events from all the memory controllers of each processor socket, one can determine the total memory bandwidth utilization.

This patch fixes issues introuduce by Andi's previous patch 'Revamp PEBS' series. This patch fixes the following: - precise_store_data_hsw() encode the mem op type whenever we can - precise_store_data_hsw set the default data source correctly - 0 is not a valid init value for data source.

Haswell supports reporting the data address for a range of PEBS events, including: UOPS_RETIRED.ALL MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.STLB_MISS_LOADS MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.STLB_MISS_STORES MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.LOCK_LOADS MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.SPLIT_LOADS MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.SPLIT_STORES MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.ALL_LOADS MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.ALL_STORES MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.L1_HIT MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.L2_HIT MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.L3_HIT MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.L1_MISS MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.L2_MISS MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.L3_MISS MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.HIT_LFB MEM_LOAD_UOPS_L3_HIT_RETIRED.XSNP_MISS MEM_LOAD_UOPS_L3_HIT_RETIRED.XSNP_HIT MEM_LOAD_UOPS_L3_HIT_RETIRED.XSNP_HITM MEM_LOAD_UOPS_L3_HIT_RETIRED.XSNP_NONE MEM_LOAD_UOPS_L3_MISS_RETIRED.LOCAL_DRAM This facility was already enabled earlier with the original Haswell perf changes. However these addresses were always reports as stores by perf, which is wrong, as they could be loads too. The hardware does not distinguish loads and stores for these instructions, so there's no (cheap) way for the profiler to find out. Change the type to PERF_MEM_OP_NA instead. Signed-off-by:

The basic idea is that it does not make sense to list all PEBS events individually. The list is very long, sometimes outdated and the hardware doesn't need it. If an event does not support PEBS it will just not count, there is no security issue. We need to only list events that something special, like supporting load or store addresses. This vastly simplifies the PEBS event selection. It also speeds up the scheduling because the scheduler doesn't have to walk as many constraints. Bugs fixed: - We do not allow setting forbidden flags with PEBS anymore (SDM 18.9.4), except for the special cycle event. This is done using a new constraint macro that also matches on the event flags. - Correct DataLA and load/store/na flags reporting on Haswell [Requires a followon patch] - We did not allow all PEBS events on Haswell: We were missing some valid subevents in d1-d2 (MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.*, MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED_L3_HIT_RETIRED.*) This includes the changes proposed by Stephane earlier and obsoletes his patchkit (except for some changes on pre Sandy Bridge/Silvermont CPUs) I only did Sandy Bridge and Silvermont and later so far, mostly because these are the parts I could directly confirm the hardware behavior with hardware architects. Also I do not believe the older CPUs have any missing events in their PEBS list, so there's no pressing need to change them. I did not implement the flag proposed by Peter to allow setting forbidden flags. If really needed this could be implemented on to of this patch. v2: Fix broken store events on SNB/IVB (Stephane Eranian) v3: More fixes. Rename some arguments (Stephane Eranian) v4: List most Haswell events individually again to report memory operation type correctly. Add new flags to describe load/store/na for datala.

This fixes a side effect of Kan's earlier patch to probe the LBRs at boot time. Normally when the LBRs are disabled cycles:pp is disabled too. So for example cycles:pp doesn't work. However this is not needed with PEBSv2 and later (Haswell) because it does not need LBRs to correct the IP-off-by-one. So add an extra check for PEBSv2 that also allows :pp Signed-off-by:

One should first enqueue to the waitqueue and then check for the condition. If the condition gets true after mutex_unlock() but before poll_wait() then we lose it and would have wait for another wakeup. This has been like this since v2.6.31-rc1 commit c7138f37 ("perf_counter: fix perf_poll()"). Before that it was slightly worse. I guess we get enough wakeups so if we miss here one it doesn't really matter. It is still a bad example. Signed-off-by:

HSW-EP has a larger offcore mask than the client Haswell CPUs. It is the same mask as on Sandy/IvyBridge-EP. All of Haswell was using the client mask, so some bits were missing. On the client parts some bits were also missing compared to Sandy/IvyBridge, in particular the bits to match on a L4 cache hit. The Haswell core in both client and server incarnations accepts the same bits (but some are nops), so we can use the same mask. So use the snbep extended mask, which is a superset of the client and the server, for all of Haswell. This allows specifying a number of extra offcore events, like for example for HSW-EP. % perf stat -e cpu/event=0xb7,umask=0x1,offcore_rsp=0x3fffc00100,name=offcore_response_pf_l3_rfo_l3_miss_any_response/ true which were <not supported> before.

In cases when the owner task exits before the workload and the workload made some forks, all the events stay in until the last workload process exits. Thats' because each child event holds parent reference. We want to release all children events once the parent is gone, because at that time there's no process to read them anyway, so they're just eating resources. This removal races with process exit, which removes all events and fork, which clone events. To be clear of those two, adding work queue to remove orphaned child for context in case such event is detected. Using delayed work queue (with delay == 1), because we queue this work under perf scheduler callbacks. Normal work queue tries to wake up the queue process, which deadlocks on rq->lock in this place. Also preventing clones from abandoned parent event. Signed-off-by:

(Jiri Olsa) * Honour -w in the report tools (report, top), allowing to specify the widths for the histogram entries columns. (Namhyung Kim) * Don't run workload if not told to, as happens when the user has no permission for profiling and even then the specified workload ends up running (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) * Do not ignore mmap events in 'perf kmem report'. This tool was using the kernel mmaps in the running machine instead of processing the mmap records from the perf.data file.

According to PEP 394 recommendation [1], it's more portable to use python2 rather than plain python to refer python binary version 2. Since there're distros using python3 by default like Arch, and we don't support python3 (yet), it'd be better using python2 explicitly. But older versions (prior to 2.7) seem not to provide python2 but just python. Given that it's only old version, try python2 first and then fallback to python. It'll ensure that it always points to python 2.x. I tested (compiles and perf script runs) with the combinations: 1) python -> python2.x, python-config -> python2.x-config python2 N/A, python2-config N/A 2) python -> python3.x, python-config -> python3.x-config python2 -> python2.x, python2-config -> python2.x-config 3) python -> python2.x, python-config -> python2.x-config python2 -> python2.x, python2-config -> python2.x-config 4) python -> python2.x, python-config -> python2.x-config python2 -> python2.x, python2-config N/A Based on / replaces the patch 2/2 by Namhyung Kim.

Now perf left-aligns column headers but the contents does not. It should have same alignment. This requires a change in pid sort key - it consists of two part (pid and comm).

Thomas reported that make PYTHON=python2 is not work on some systems. I can reproduce it on my ArchLinux box too. This is because it's overridden by config/feature-checks/Makefile regardless of PYTHON setting. I guess it's a bug slipped into during the feature checking change. Actually, we don't need to check python-config in the feature-checks. We can just pass appropriate FEATURE_CHECK_*FLAGS. Reported-by:
