      perf vendor events intel: Add NO_NMI_WATCHDOG metric constraint · b95fcd2c
      Kan Liang authored
      Add NO_NMI_WATCHDOG metric constraint to Page_Walks_Utilization for Sky Lake
      and Cascade Lake.
      
      Committer testing:
      
      On a Lenovo T480S, Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8650U Kaby Lake, that looking at x86's
      mapfile.csv file is a:
      
        $ grep -w skylake tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/mapfile.csv
        GenuineIntel-6-[4589]E,v24,skylake,core
        $
      
      So uses the constraint added in this patch in this file:
      
        tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/skylake/skl-metrics.json
      
      Before:

        The events in group usually have to be from the same PMU. Try reorganizing the group.

      perf metricgroup: Support metric constraint · ab483d8b
      Kan Liang authored
      Some metric groups have metric constraints. A metric group can be
      scheduled as a group only when some constraints are applied.  For
      example, Page_Walks_Utilization has a metric constraint,
      "NO_NMI_WATCHDOG".
      
      When NMI watchdog is disabled, the metric group can be scheduled as a
      group. Otherwise, splitting the metric group into standalone metrics.
      
      Add a new function, metricgroup__has_constraint(), to check whether all
      constraints are applied. If not, splitting the metric group into
      standalone metrics.
      
      Currently, only one constraint, "NO_NMI_WATCHDOG", is checked. Print a
      warning for the metric group with the constraint, when NMI WATCHDOG is
      enabled.

      perf util: Factor out sysctl__nmi_watchdog_enabled() · 2a14c1bf
      Kan Liang authored
      The NMI watchdog status is required for metric group constraint
      examination.  Factor out sysctl__nmi_watchdog_enabled() to retrieve the
      NMI watchdog status.
      
      Users may count more than one metric group each time. If so, the NMI
      watchdog status may be retrieved several times. To reduce the overhead,
      cache the NMI watchdog status.
      
      Replace the NMI watchdog status checking in print_footer() by
      sysctl__nmi_watchdog_enabled().

      perf block-info: Allow selecting which columns to report and its order · cca0cc76
      Jin Yao authored
      Currently we use a predefined array to set the block info output
      formats, it's fixed and inflexible.
      
      This patch adds two parameters "block_hpps" and "nr_hpps" in
      block_info__create_report and other static functions, in order to let
      user decide which columns to report and with specified report ordering.
      It should be more flexible.
      
      Buffers will be allocated to contain the new fmts, of course, we need to
      release them before perf exits.

      perf diff: Use __block_info__cmp() to replace block_pair_cmp() · a8a9f6dc
      Jin Yao authored
      'perf diff' uses block_pair_cmp() to compare two blocks. But
      block_info__cmp() has the similar functionality and it's a bit more
      complete.
      
      This patch removes block_pair_cmp() and uses __block_info__cmp()
      instead. __block_info__cmp() is wrapped by block_info__cmp() and it
      doesn't receives a perf_hpp_fmt parameter.

      perf block-info: Fix wrong block address comparison in block_info__cmp() · 3e152aa9
      Jin Yao authored
      Commit 60414418 ("perf block: Cleanup and refactor block info
      functions") introduces block_info__cmp(), which compares two blocks.
      
      But the issues are:
      
      1. It should return the strcmp cmp value only if it's not 0.
      
      2. When symbol names are matched, we need to compare the addresses
         of blocks further. But it wrongly uses the symbol addresses for
         comparison.
      
      3. If the syms are both NULL, we can't consider these two blocks are
         matched.
      
      This patch fixes above 3 issues.

      perf expr: Increase EXPR_MAX_OTHER to support metrics with more than 15 variables · 58ca7076
      Jiri Olsa authored
      We have metrics that define more than 15 variables, like
      Branch_Misprediction_Cost. Increasing the allowed variables count to 20.
      
      As Andy pointed out, we can't go too high in here, because some of the
      code has O(n^2) complexity (already_seen) and we might want to do some
      other changes (like using hash tables) before increasing the maximum
      even more.

      perf expr: Move expr lexer to flex · 26226a97
      Jiri Olsa authored
      Adding expr flex code instead of the manual parser code. So it's easily
      extensible in upcoming changes.
      
      The new flex code is in flex.l object and gets compiled like all the
      other flexers we use.  It's defined as flex reentrant parser.
      
      It's used by both expr__parse and expr__find_other interfaces by
      separating the starting point.
      
      There's no intended change of functionality ;-) the test expr is
      passing.

      The perf.data may be generated by a newer version of perf tool, which
      support new input bits in attr, e.g. new bit for branch_sample_type.
      
      The perf.data may be parsed by an older version of perf tool later.  The
      old perf tool may parse the perf.data incorrectly. There is no warning
      message for this case.
      
      Current perf header never check for unknown input bits in attr.
      
      When read the event desc from header, check the stored event attr.  The
      reserved bits, sample type, read format and branch sample type will be
      checked.

      perf evsel: Support PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX · d3f85437
      Kan Liang authored
      A new branch sample type PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX has been introduced
      in latest kernel.
      
      Enable HW_INDEX by default in LBR call stack mode.
      
      If kernel doesn't support the sample type, switching it off.
      
      Add HW_INDEX in attr_fprintf as well. User can check whether the branch
      sample type is set via debug information or header.
      
      Committer testing:
      
      First collect some samples with LBR callchains, system wide, for a few
      seconds:
      
        # perf record --call-graph lbr -a sleep 5
        [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.625 MB perf.data (224 samples) ]
        #
      
      Now lets use 'perf evlist -v' to look at the branch_sample_type:
      
        # perf evlist -v
        cycles: size: 120, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CALLCHAIN|CPU|PERIOD|BRANCH_STACK, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, precise_ip: 3, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1, ksymbol: 1, bpf_event: 1, branch_sample_type: USER|CALL_STACK|NO_FLAGS|NO_CYCLES|HW_INDEX
        #
      
      So the machine has the kernel feature, and it was correctly added to
      perf_event_attr.branch_sample_type, for the default 'cycles' event.
      
      If we do it in another machine, where the kernel lacks the HW_INDEX
      feature, we get:
      
        # perf record --call-graph lbr -a sleep 2s
        [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.690 MB perf.data (499 samples) ]
        # perf evlist -v
        cycles: size: 120, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CALLCHAIN|CPU|PERIOD|BRANCH_STACK, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, precise_ip: 3, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1, ksymbol: 1, bpf_event: 1, branch_sample_type: USER|CALL_STACK|NO_FLAGS|NO_CYCLES
        #
      
      No HW_INDEX in attr.branch_sample_type.

      perf tools: Add hw_idx in struct branch_stack · 42bbabed
      Kan Liang authored
      The low level index of raw branch records for the most recent branch can
      be recorded in a sample with PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX
      branch_sample_type. Extend struct branch_stack to support it.
      
      However, if the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX is not applied, only nr and
      entries[] will be output by kernel. The pointer of entries[] could be
      wrong, since the output format is different with new struct
      branch_stack.  Add a variable no_hw_idx in struct perf_sample to
      indicate whether the hw_idx is output.  Add get_branch_entry() to return
      corresponding pointer of entries[0].
      
      To make dummy branch sample consistent as new branch sample, add hw_idx
      in struct dummy_branch_stack for cs-etm and intel-pt.
      
      Apply the new struct branch_stack for synthetic events as well.
      
      Extend test case sample-parsing to support new struct branch_stack.
      
      Committer notes:
      
      Renamed get_branch_entries() to perf_sample__branch_entries() to have
      proper namespacing and pave the way for this to be moved to libperf,
      eventually.
      
      Add 'static' to that inline as it is in a header.
      
      Add 'hw_idx' to 'struct dummy_branch_stack' in cs-etm.c to fix the build
      on arm64.

      perf stat: Show percore counts in per CPU output · 1af62ce6
      Jin Yao authored
      We have supported the event modifier "percore" which sums up the event
      counts for all hardware threads in a core and show the counts per core.
      
      For example,
      
       # perf stat -e cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/ -a -A -- sleep 1
      
        Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
      
       S0-D0-C0                395,072      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
       S0-D0-C1                851,248      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
       S0-D0-C2                954,226      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
       S0-D0-C3              1,233,659      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
      
      This patch provides a new option "--percore-show-thread". It is used
      with event modifier "percore" together to sum up the event counts for
      all hardware threads in a core but show the counts per hardware thread.
      
      This is essentially a replacement for the any bit (which is gone in
      Icelake). Per core counts are useful for some formulas, e.g. CoreIPC.
      The original percore version was inconvenient to post process. This
      variant matches the output of the any bit.
      
      With this patch, for example,
      
       # perf stat -e cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/ -a -A --percore-show-thread  -- sleep 1
      
        Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
      
       CPU0               2,453,061      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
       CPU1               1,823,921      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
       CPU2               1,383,166      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
       CPU3               1,102,652      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
       CPU4               2,453,061      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
       CPU5               1,823,921      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
       CPU6               1,383,166      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
       CPU7               1,102,652      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
      
      We can see counts are duplicated in CPU pairs (CPU0/CPU4, CPU1/CPU5,
      CPU2/CPU6, CPU3/CPU7).
      
      The interval mode also works. For example,
      
       # perf stat -e cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/ -a -A --percore-show-thread  -I 1000
       #           time CPU                    counts unit events
            1.000425421 CPU0                 925,032      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
            1.000425421 CPU1                 430,202      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
            1.000425421 CPU2                 436,843      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
            1.000425421 CPU3               1,192,504      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
            1.000425421 CPU4                 925,032      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
            1.000425421 CPU5                 430,202      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
            1.000425421 CPU6                 436,843      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
            1.000425421 CPU7               1,192,504      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
      
      If we offline CPU5, the result is:
      
       # perf stat -e cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/ -a -A --percore-show-thread -- sleep 1

       v4:
       ---
       Ravi Bangoria reports an issue in v3. Once we offline a CPU,
       the output is not correct. The issue is we should use the cpu
       idx in print_percore_thread rather than using the cpu value.
      
       v3:
       ---
       1. Fix the interval mode output error
       2. Use cpu value (not cpu index) in config->aggr_get_id().
       3. Refine the code according to Jiri's comments.
      
       v2:
       ---
       Add the explanation in change log. This is essentially a replacement
       for the any bit. No code change.

      tools lib api fs: Move cgroupsfs_find_mountpoint() · 7982a898
      Namhyung Kim authored
      Move it from tools/perf/util/cgroup.c as it can be used by other places.
      Note that cgroup filesystem is different from others since it's usually
      mounted separately (in v1) for each subsystem.
      
      I just copied the code with a little modification to pass a name of
      subsystem.

      Reviewer Notes:
      
      Looks good to me. Some more context:
      https://clang.llvm.org/docs/DiagnosticsReference.html#wstring-compare
      The spec says:
      J.1 Unspecified behavior
      The following are unspecified:
      .. Whether two string literals result in distinct arrays (6.4.5).
