There is no good reason why we cannot synthesize "cycle" events from
Intel PT just as we can synthesize "instruction" events, in particular
when CYC packets are available. This enables using PT to getting much
more accurate cycle profiles than regular sampling (record -e cycles)
when the work last for very short periods (<10 ms). Thus, add support
for this, based off of the existing IPC calculation framework. The new
option to --itrace is "y" (for cYcles), as c was taken for calls. Cycle
and instruction events can be synthesized together, and are by default.
The only real caveat is that CYC packets are only emitted whenever some
other packet is, which in practice is when a branch instruction is
encountered (and not even all branches). Thus, even at no subsampling
(e.g. --itrace=y0ns), it is impossible to get more accuracy than a
single basic block, and all cycles spent executing that block will get
attributed to the branch instruction that ends the packet. Thus, one
cannot know whether the cycles came from e.g. a specific load, a
mispredicted branch, or something else. When subsampling (which is the
default), the cycle events will get smeared out even more, but will
still be generally useful to attribute cycle counts to functions.

tools/perf/util/bpf_ftrace.c
Also perf_env__get_cpu() was removed back in "perf cpumap: Switch
cpu_map__build_map to cpu function".
Additionally these needed to be fixed for the ARM builds to complete:
tools/perf/arch/arm/util/cs-etm.c

When perf runs in compat mode (kernel in 64-bit mode and the perf is in
32-bit mode), the 64-bit value atomicity in the user space cannot be
assured, E.g. on some architectures, the 64-bit value accessing is split
into two instructions, one is for the low 32-bit word accessing and
another is for the high 32-bit word.
This patch introduces weak functions compat_auxtrace_mmap__read_head()
and compat_auxtrace_mmap__write_tail(), as their naming indicates, when
perf tool works in compat mode, it uses these two functions to access
the AUX head and tail. These two functions can allow the perf tool to
work properly in certain conditions, e.g. when perf tool works in
snapshot mode with only using AUX head pointer, or perf tool uses the
AUX buffer and the incremented tail is not bigger than 4GB.
When perf tool cannot handle the case when the AUX tail is bigger than
4GB, the function compat_auxtrace_mmap__write_tail() returns -1 and
tells the caller to bail out for the error.
These two functions are declared as weak attribute, this allows to
implement arch specific functions if any arch can support the 64-bit
value atomicity in compat mode.

with auxtrace_mmap__read_head(), whether the session is in snapshot mode

And the function auxtrace_mmap__read_snapshot_head() is unused so this

The main purpose for using __sync built-in functions is to support
compat mode for 32-bit perf with 64-bit kernel. But using these
built-in functions might cause potential issues.
__sync functions originally support Intel Itanium processoer [1] but it
cannot promise to support all 32-bit archs. Now these functions have
become the legacy functions.
Considering __sync functions cannot really fix the 64-bit value
atomicity on 32-bit archs, thus this patch drops __sync functions.

Intel PT timestamps are affected by virtualization. Add a new option
that will allow the Intel PT decoder to correlate the timestamps and
translate the virtual machine timestamps to host timestamps.
The advantages of making this a separate step, rather than a part of
normal decoding are that it is simpler to implement, and it needs to
be done only once.
This patch adds only the option. Later patches add Intel PT support.

aux-output events need to have an AUX area event as the group leader.
However, grouping events does not allow the AUX area event to be given
an address filter because the --filter option must come after the event,
which conflicts with the grouping syntax.
To allow filtering in that case, automatically create a group since that
is the requirement anyway.

The 'q' option is for modes of decoding that are quicker because they
skip or omit decoding some aspects of trace data.
If supported, the 'q' option may be repeated to increase the effect.

This patch is to add four options to synthesize events which are
described as below:
'f': synthesize first level cache events
'm': synthesize last level cache events
't': synthesize TLB events
'a': synthesize remote access events
This four options will be used by ARM SPE as their first consumer.

killall -USR2 perf when the workload exits.
This patch makes it easier and also works when perf record is attached

perf record:
Alexey Budankov:
- Allow mixing --user-regs with --call-graph=dwarf, making sure that
the minimal set of registers for DWARF unwinding is present in the
set of user registers requested to be present in each sample, while
warning the user that this may make callchains unreliable if more
that the minimal set of registers is needed to unwind.
yuzhoujian:
- Add support to collect callchains from kernel or user space only,
IOW allow setting the perf_event_attr.exclude_callchain_{kernel,user}
bits from the command line.
perf trace:
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Remove x86_64 specific syscall numbers from the augmented_raw_syscalls
BPF in-kernel collector of augmented raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit}
payloads, use instead the syscall numbers obtainer either by the
arch specific syscalltbl generators or from audit-libs.
- Allow 'perf trace' to ask for the number of bytes to collect for
string arguments, for now ask for PATH_MAX, i.e. the whole
pathnames, which ends up being just a way to speficy which syscall
args are pathnames and thus should be read using bpf_probe_read_str().
- Skip unknown syscalls when expanding strace like syscall groups.
This helps using the 'string' group of syscalls to work in arm64,
where some of the syscalls present in x86_64 that deal with
strings, for instance 'access', are deprecated and this should not
be asked for tracing.
Leo Yan:
- Exit when failing to build eBPF program.
perf config:
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Bail out when a handler returns failure for a key-value pair. This
helps with cases where processing a key-value pair is not just a
matter of setting some tool specific knob, involving, for instance
building a BPF program to then attach to the list of events 'perf
trace' will use, e.g. augmented_raw_syscalls.c.
perf.data:
Kan Liang:
- Read and store die ID information available in new Intel processors
in CPUID.1F in the CPU topology written in the perf.data header.
perf stat:
Kan Liang:
- Support per-die aggregation.
Documentation:
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Update perf.data documentation about the CPU_TOPOLOGY, MEM_TOPOLOGY,
CLOCKID and DIR_FORMAT headers.
Song Liu:
- Add description of headers HEADER_BPF_PROG_INFO and HEADER_BPF_BTF.
Leo Yan:
- Update default value for llvm.clang-bpf-cmd-template in 'man perf-config'.
JVMTI:
Jiri Olsa:
- Address gcc string overflow warning for strncpy()
core:
- Remove superfluous nthreads system_wide setup in perf_evsel__alloc_fd().
Intel PT:
Adrian Hunter:
- Add support for samples to contain IPC ratio, collecting cycles
information from CYC packets, showing the IPC info periodically, because
Intel PT does not update the cycle count on every branch or instruction,
the incremental values will often be zero. When there are values, they
will be the number of instructions and number of cycles since the last
update, and thus represent the average IPC since the last IPC value.
E.g.:
# perf record --cpu 1 -m200000 -a -e intel_pt/cyc/u sleep 0.0001
rounding mmap pages size to 1024M (262144 pages)
[ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.208 MB perf.data ]
# perf script --insn-trace --xed -F+ipc,-dso,-cpu,-tid
#

- Update default value for llvm.clang-bpf-cmd-template in 'man perf-config'.
JVMTI:
Jiri Olsa:
- Address gcc string overflow warning for strncpy()
core:
- Remove superfluous nthreads system_wide setup in perf_evsel__alloc_fd().
Intel PT:
Adrian Hunter:
- Add support for samples to contain IPC ratio, collecting cycles
information from CYC packets, showing the IPC info periodically, because
Intel PT does not update the cycle count on every branch or instruction,
the incremental values will often be zero. When there are values, they
will be the number of instructions and number of cycles since the last
update, and thus represent the average IPC since the last IPC value.
E.g.:
# perf record --cpu 1 -m200000 -a -e intel_pt/cyc/u sleep 0.0001
rounding mmap pages size to 1024M (262144 pages)
[ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.208 MB perf.data ]
# perf script --insn-trace --xed -F+ipc,-dso,-cpu,-tid
#
<SNIP + add line numbering to make sense of IPC counts e.g.: (18/3)>

- Allow using time ranges with Intel PT, i.e. these features, already
present but not optimially usable with Intel PT, should be now:
Select the second 10% time slice:
$ perf script --time 10%/2
Select from 0% to 10% time slice:
$ perf script --time 0%-10%
Select the first and second 10% time slices:
$ perf script --time 10%/1,10%/2
Select from 0% to 10% and 30% to 40% slices:
$ perf script --time 0%-10%,30%-40%
