It might be useful to see what's happening behind us rather than just waiting few seconds during the config checking. Also align the CHK message with other ones. Signed-off-by:

Ingo reported (again!) that 'make clean' on perf/traceevent does not work due to some reason with system header file. Quotes Ingo: "Note that the old dependency related build failure thought to be fixed in commit 860df583 is back: make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.0/include/stddef.h', needed by `.trace-seq.d'. Stop. 'make clean' itself does not work in libtraceevent: comet:~/tip/tools/lib/traceevent> make clean make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.0/include/stddef.h', needed by `.trace-seq.d'. Stop. So I had to clean it out manually: comet:~/tip/tools/lib/traceevent> git ls-files --others | xargs rm comet:~/tip/tools/lib/traceevent> and then things build fine." Try to fix it by excluding system headers from dependency generation. Signed-off-by:

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core Pull perf/core trace improvements from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: * Don't stop synthesizing threads when one vanishes, this is for the existing threads when we start a tool like trace. * Use sched:sched_stat_runtime to provide a thread summary, this produces the same output as the 'trace summary' subcommand of tglx's original "trace" tool.

The perf_event__synthesize_threads routine synthesizes all the existing threads in the system, because we don't have any kernel facilities to ask for PERF_RECORD_{FORK,MMAP,COMM} for existing threads. It was returning an error as soon as one thread couldn't be synthesized, which is a bit extreme when, for instance, a forkish workload is running, like a kernel compile.

David Ahern authored
Platforms (e.g., VM's) without support for precise mode get a confusing error message. e.g., $ perf record -e cycles:p -a -- sleep 1 Error: sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 95 (Operation not supported). /bin/dmesg may provide additional information. No hardware sampling interrupt available. No APIC? If so then you can boot the kernel with the "lapic" boot parameter to force-enable it. sleep: Terminated which is not clear that precise mode might be the root problem. With this patch: $ perf record -e cycles:p -fo /tmp/perf.data -- sleep 1 Error: 'precise' request may not be supported. Try removing 'p' modifier sleep: Terminated v2: softened message to 'may not be' supported per Robert's suggestion Signed-off-by:

Add automated tests for all events found under PMU/events directory. Tested events are in the 'cpu/event=xxx/u' format, where 'xxx' is substituted by every event found.

The sysfs events group attribute currently shows all hw events, including also undefined ones. This patch filters out all undefined events out of the sysfs events group attribute, so they don't even show up. Suggested-by:

Add support to display hardware events translations available through the sysfs. Add 'events' group attribute under the sysfs x86 PMU record with attribute/file for each hardware event. This patch adds only backbone for PMUs to display config under 'events' directory. The specific PMU support itself will come in next patches, however this is how the sysfs group will look like: # ls /sys/devices/cpu/events/ branch-instructions branch-misses bus-cycles cache-misses cache-references cpu-cycles instructions ref-cycles stalled-cycles-backend stalled-cycles-frontend The file - hw event ID mapping is: file hw event ID --------------------------------------------------------------- cpu-cycles PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES instructions PERF_COUNT_HW_INSTRUCTIONS cache-references PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_REFERENCES cache-misses PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_MISSES branch-instructions PERF_COUNT_HW_BRANCH_INSTRUCTIONS branch-misses PERF_COUNT_HW_BRANCH_MISSES bus-cycles PERF_COUNT_HW_BUS_CYCLES stalled-cycles-frontend PERF_COUNT_HW_STALLED_CYCLES_FRONTEND stalled-cycles-backend PERF_COUNT_HW_STALLED_CYCLES_BACKEND ref-cycles PERF_COUNT_HW_REF_CPU_CYCLES Each file in the 'events' directory contains the term translation for the symbolic hw event for the currently running cpu model. # cat /sys/devices/cpu/events/stalled-cycles-backend event=0xb1,umask=0x01,inv,cmask=0x01 Suggested-by:

In check_hw_exists() we try to detect non-emulated MSR accesses by writing an arbitrary value into one of the PMU registers and check if it's value after a readout is still the same. This algorithm silently assumes that the register does not contain the magic value already, which is wrong in at least one situation. Fix the algorithm to really do a read-modify-write cycle. This fixes a warning under Xen under some circumstances on AMD family 10h CPUs. The reasons in more details actually sound like a story from Believe It or Not!: First you need an AMD family 10h/12h CPU. These do not reset the PERF_CTR registers on a reboot. Now you boot bare metal Linux, which goes successfully through this check, but leaves the magic value of 0xabcd in the register. You don't use the performance counters, but do a reboot (warm reset). Then you choose to boot Xen. The check will be triggered with a recent Linux kernel as Dom0 again, trying to write 0xabcd into the MSR. Xen silently drops the write (expected), but the subsequent read will return the value in the register, which just happens to be the expected magic value. Thus the test misleadingly succeeds, leaving the kernel in the belief that the PMU is available. This will trigger the following message: [ 0.020294] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 0.020311] WARNING: at arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c:730 xen_apic_write+0x15/0x17() [ 0.020318] Hardware name: empty [ 0.020323] Modules linked in: [ 0.020334] Pid: 1, comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.3.8 #7 [ 0.020340] Call Trace: [ 0.020354] [<ffffffff81050379>] warn_slowpath_common+0x80/0x98 [ 0.020369] [<ffffffff810503a6>] warn_slowpath_null+0x15/0x17 [ 0.020378] [<ffffffff810034df>] xen_apic_write+0x15/0x17 [ 0.020392] [<ffffffff8101cb2b>] perf_events_lapic_init+0x2e/0x30 [ 0.020410] [<ffffffff81ee4dd0>] init_hw_perf_events+0x250/0x407 [ 0.020419] [<ffffffff81ee4b80>] ? check_bugs+0x2d/0x2d [ 0.020430] [<ffffffff81002181>] do_one_initcall+0x7a/0x131 [ 0.020444] [<ffffffff81edbbf9>] kernel_init+0x91/0x15d [ 0.020456] [<ffffffff817caaa4>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 [ 0.020471] [<ffffffff817c347c>] ? retint_restore_args+0x5/0x6 [ 0.020481] [<ffffffff817caaa0>] ? gs_change+0x13/0x13 [ 0.020500] ---[ end trace a7919e7f17c0a725 ]--- The new code will change every of the 16 low bits read from the register and tries to write and read-back that modified number from the MSR.

Merge tag 'perf-urgent-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: * Validate syscall id before growing syscall table in 'trace', fixing potential excessive memory usage. * Validate perf_sample.raw_data, making 'trace' more robust, avoiding some potential SEGFAULTs when reading tracepoint fields. * Fix exclude_guest parse events 'perf test's, from Jiri Olsa. * Do not flush maps on COMM, that is sent by the kernel when a process is exec'ed, but also when a process changes its name. Since we were assuming a COMM always meant an EXEC, we were losing track of a process maps by flushing its maps. Fix from Luigi Semenzato. * A recent patch introduced a problem by not initializing what should be the first kind of pager to use, 'man', instead it was being left as zero which means no pager. This caused 'perf subcmd --help' to produce no output. Fix from Namhyung Kim. Signed-off-by:
