3406ac5347 perf annotate: Add --demangle and --demangle-kernel 
'perf annotate' supports --symbol but it's impossible to filter a C++
symbol. With --no-demangle one can filter easily by mangled function
name.

06e5ca746c perf tools: Support pipeline stage cycles for powerpc 
The pipeline stage cycles details can be recorded on powerpc from the
contents of Performance Monitor Unit (PMU) registers. On ISA v3.1
platform, sampling registers exposes the cycles spent in different
pipeline stages. Patch adds perf tools support to present two of the
cycle counter information along with memory latency (weight).

Re-use the field 'ins_lat' for storing the first pipeline stage cycle.
This is stored in 'var2_w' field of 'perf_sample_weight'.

Add a new field 'p_stage_cyc' to store the second pipeline stage cycle
which is stored in 'var3_w' field of perf_sample_weight.

Add new sort function 'Pipeline Stage Cycle' and include this in
default_mem_sort_order[]. This new sort function may be used to denote
some other pipeline stage in another architecture. So add this to list
of sort entries that can have dynamic header string.

0bdad97801 perf stat: Align CSV output for summary mode 
The 'perf stat' subcommand supports the request for a summary of the
interval counter readings.  But the summary lines break the CSV output
so it's hard for scripts to parse the result.

Before:

  # perf stat -x, -I1000 --interval-count 1 --summary

The summary line loses the timestamp column, which breaks the CSV
output.

We add a column at the original 'timestamp' position and it just says
'summary' for the summary line.

After:

  # perf stat -x, -I1000 --interval-count 1 --summary
       1.001196053,8012.72,msec,cpu-clock,8012722903,100.00,8.013,CPUs utilized

Now it's easy for script to analyse the summary lines.

Of course, we also consider not to break possible existing scripts which
can continue to use the broken CSV format by using a new '--no-csv-summary.'
option.

  # perf stat -x, -I1000 --interval-count 1 --summary --no-csv-summary

This option can be enabled in perf config by setting the variable
'stat.no-csv-summary'.

7fac83aaf2 perf stat: Introduce 'bperf' to share hardware PMCs with BPF 
The perf tool uses performance monitoring counters (PMCs) to monitor
system performance. The PMCs are limited hardware resources. For
example, Intel CPUs have 3x fixed PMCs and 4x programmable PMCs per cpu.

Modern data center systems use these PMCs in many different ways: system
level monitoring, (maybe nested) container level monitoring, per process
monitoring, profiling (in sample mode), etc. In some cases, there are
more active perf_events than available hardware PMCs. To allow all
perf_events to have a chance to run, it is necessary to do expensive
time multiplexing of events.

On the other hand, many monitoring tools count the common metrics
(cycles, instructions). It is a waste to have multiple tools create
multiple perf_events of "cycles" and occupy multiple PMCs.

bperf tries to reduce such wastes by allowing multiple perf_events of
"cycles" or "instructions" (at different scopes) to share PMUs. Instead
of having each perf-stat session to read its own perf_events, bperf uses
BPF programs to read the perf_events and aggregate readings to BPF maps.
Then, the perf-stat session(s) reads the values from these BPF maps.

Please refer to the comment before the definition of bperf_ops for the
description of bperf architecture.

bperf is off by default. To enable it, pass --bpf-counters option to
perf-stat. bperf uses a BPF hashmap to share information about BPF
programs and maps used by bperf. This map is pinned to bpffs. The
default path is /sys/fs/bpf/perf_attr_map. The user could change the
path with option --bpf-attr-map.

The existing text was way too terse, pick the intended usage from the
cset that introduced this option.

009ef05f98 Merge remote-tracking branch 'torvalds/master' into perf/core 
To pick up the fixes sent for v5.12 and continue development based on
v5.12-rc2, i.e. without the swap on file bug.

This also gets a slightly newer and better tools/perf/arch/arm/util/cs-etm.c
patch version, using the BIT() macro, that had already been slated to
v5.13 but ended up going to v5.12-rc1 on an older version.

2e989f8218 perf report: Create option to disable raw event ordering 
Warning "dso not found" is reported when using "perf report -D".

 66702781413407 0x32c0 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x2): 28177/28177: 0x55e493e00563 period: 106578 addr: 0
  ... thread: perf:28177
  ...... dso: <not found>

 66702727832429 0x9dd8 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_COMM exec: triad_loop:28177/28177

The PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE event (timestamp: 66702781413407) should be after the
PERF_RECORD_COMM event (timestamp: 66702727832429), but it's early processed.

So for most of cases, it makes sense to keep the event ordered even for dump
mode. But it would be also useful to disable ordered_events for reporting raw
dump to see events as they are stored in the perf.data file.

So now, set ordered_events by default to true and add a new option
'disable-order' to disable it. For example,

  perf report -D --disable-order

Fixes: 977f739b71 ("perf report: Disable ordered_events for raw dump")

c840cbfeff perf intel-pt: Add PSB events 
Emitting a PSB+ can cause a CPU a slight delay. When doing timing analysis
of code with Intel PT, it is useful to know if a timing bubble was caused
by Intel PT or not. Add reporting of PSB events via perf script. PSB
events are printed with the existing itrace 'p' option which also prints
power and frequency changes. The PSB event contains the trace offset at
which the PSB occurs, to allow easy reference back to the PSB+ packets.

The PSB event timestamp is always the timestamp from the PSB+ TSC
packet, and the ip is always the address from the PSB+ FUP packet.

The code changes are non-trivial because the decoder must walk to the
PSB+ FUP address before outputting the PSB event.

Example:

  $ perf record -e intel_pt/cyc,psb_period=0/u uname
  Linux
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.046 MB perf.data ]

edcaa47958 perf daemon: Add 'ping' command 
Add a 'ping' command to verify that the 'perf record' session is up and
operational.

It's used in the following patches via test code to make sure 'perf
record' is ready to receive signals.

Example:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [daemon]
  base=/opt/perfdata

  [session-cycles]
  run = -m 10M -e cycles --overwrite --switch-output -a

  [session-sched]
  run = -m 20M -e sched:* --overwrite --switch-output -a

Start the daemon:

  # perf daemon start

Ping all sessions:

  # perf daemon ping
  OK   cycles
  OK   sched

Ping specific session:

  # perf daemon ping --session sched
  OK   sched

Committer notes:

Fixed up bug pointed by clang:

Buggy:

  if (!pollfd.revents & POLLIN)

Correct code:

  if (!(pollfd.revents & POLLIN))

clang warning:

  builtin-daemon.c:560:6: error: logical not is only applied to the left hand side of this bitwise operator [-Werror,-Wlogical-not-parentheses]
          if (!pollfd.revents & POLLIN) {
              ^               ~
  builtin-daemon.c:560:6: note: add parentheses after the '!' to evaluate the bitwise operator first

Also use designated initialized with pollfd, i.e.:

  struct pollfd pollfd = { .events = POLLIN, };

Instead of:

  struct pollfd pollfd = { 0, };

To get past:

    builtin-daemon.c:510:30: error: missing field 'events' initializer [-Werror,-Wmissing-field-initializers]
            struct pollfd pollfd = { 0, };
                                        ^

8c98be6c36 perf daemon: Allow only one daemon over base directory 
Add 'lock' file under daemon base and flock it, so only one perf daemon
can run on top of it.

Each daemon tries to create and lock BASE/lock file, if it's successful
we are sure we're the only daemon running over the BASE.

Once daemon is finished, file descriptor to lock file is closed and lock
is released.

Example:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [daemon]
  base=/opt/perfdata

  [session-cycles]
  run = -m 10M -e cycles --overwrite --switch-output -a

  [session-sched]
  run = -m 20M -e sched:* --overwrite --switch-output -a

Starting the daemon:

  # perf daemon start

And try once more:

  # perf daemon start
  failed: another perf daemon (pid 775594) owns /opt/perfdata

will end up with an error, because there's already one running
on top of /opt/perfdata.

Committer notes:

Provide lockf(F_TLOCK) when not available, i.e. transform:

  lockf(fd, F_TLOCK, 0);

into:

  flock(fd, LOCK_EX | LOCK_NB);

Which should be equivalent.

Noticed when cross building to some odd Android NDK.

c0666261ff perf daemon: Add config file support 
Adding support to configure daemon with config file.

Each client or server invocation of perf daemon needs to know the
base directory, where all sessions data is stored.

The base is defined with:

  daemon.base
    Base path for daemon data. All sessions data are stored under
    this path.

The daemon allows to create record sessions. Each session is a
record command spawned and monitored by perf daemon.

The session is defined with:

  session-<NAME>.run
    Defines new record session for daemon. The value is record's
    command line without the 'record' keyword.

Example:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [daemon]
  base=/opt/perfdata

  [session-cycles]
  run = -m 10M -e cycles --overwrite --switch-output -a

  [session-sched]
  run = -m 20M -e sched:* --overwrite --switch-output -a

The example above defines '/opt/perfdata' as the base directory and 2
record sessions.

  # perf daemon start
  [2021-01-28 19:47:33.454413] daemon started (pid 16015)
  [2021-01-28 19:47:33.455910] reconfig: ruining session [cycles:16016]: -m 10M -e cycles --overwrite --switch-output -a
  [2021-01-28 19:47:33.456599] reconfig: ruining session [sched:16017]: -m 20M -e sched:* --overwrite --switch-output -a

  # ps -ef | grep perf
  ... perf daemon start
  ... /home/jolsa/.../perf record -m 20M -e cycles --overwrite --switch-output -a
  ... /home/jolsa/.../perf record -m 20M -e sched:* --overwrite --switch-output -a

The base directory is populated with:

  # find /opt/perfdata/
  /opt/perfdata/
  /opt/perfdata/control                    <- control socket
  /opt/perfdata/session-cycles             <- data for session 'cycles':
  /opt/perfdata/session-cycles/output      <-   perf record output
  /opt/perfdata/session-cycles/perf.data   <-   perf data
  /opt/perfdata/session-sched              <- ditto for session 'sched'
  /opt/perfdata/session-sched/output
  /opt/perfdata/session-sched/perf.data

The patchset that starts with this adds support to configure and run
record sessions on background via new 'perf daemon' command.

This is useful for being able to use perf as a flight recorder that one
can interact with asking for events to be enabled or disabled, added or
removed, etc.

61d9fc4449 perf script: Support filtering by hex address 
'perf script' supports '-S' or '--symbol' options to only list the
records for these symbols. A symbol is typically a name or hex address.
If it's hex address, it is the start address of one symbol.

While it would be useful if we can filter trace records by any hex
address (not only the start address of symbol). So now we support
filtering trace records by more conditions, such as:

- symbol name
- start address of symbol
- any hexadecimal address
- address range

The comparison order is defined as:

1. symbol name comparison
2. symbol start address comparison.
3. any hexadecimal address comparison.
4. address range comparison.

The idea is if we can get a valid address from -S list, we add the
address to addr_list for address comparison otherwise we still leave
it to sym_list for symbol comparison.

Some examples:

  root@kbl-ppc:~# ./perf script -S ffffffff9a477308

63e39aa6ae perf stat: Support L2 Topdown events 
The TMA method level 2 metrics is supported from the Intel Sapphire
Rapids server, which expose four L2 Topdown metrics events to user
space. There are eight L2 events in total. The other four L2 Topdown
metrics events are calculated from the corresponding L1 and the exposed
L2 events.

Now, the --topdown prints the complete top-down metrics that supported
by the CPU. For the Intel Sapphire Rapids server, there are 4 L1 events
and 8 L2 events displyed in one line.

Add a new option, --td-level, to display the top-down statistics that
equal to or lower than the input level.

The L2 event is marked only when both its L1 parent event and itself
crosse the threshold.

Here is an example:

  $ perf stat --topdown --td-level=2 --no-metric-only sleep 1
  Topdown accuracy may decrease when measuring long periods.
  Please print the result regularly, e.g. -I1000

590db42de0 perf report: Support instruction latency 
The instruction latency information can be recorded on some platforms,
e.g., the Intel Sapphire Rapids server. With both memory latency
(weight) and the new instruction latency information, users can easily
locate the expensive load instructions, and also understand the time
spent in different stages. The users can optimize their applications in
different pipeline stages.

The 'weight' field is shared among different architectures. Reusing the
'weight' field may impacts other architectures. Add a new field to store
the instruction latency.

Like the 'weight' support, introduce a 'ins_lat' for the global
instruction latency, and a 'local_ins_lat' for the local instruction
latency version.

Add new sort functions, INSTR Latency and Local INSTR Latency,
accordingly.

Add local_ins_lat to the default_mem_sort_order[].

a054c2989f perf tools: Support data block and addr block 
Two new data source fields, to indicate the block reasons of a load
instruction, are introduced on the Intel Sapphire Rapids server. The
fields can be used by the memory profiling.

Add a new sort function, SORT_MEM_BLOCKED, for the two fields.

For the previous platforms or the block reason is unknown, print "N/A"
for the block reason.

Add blocked as a default mem sort key for perf report and perf mem
report.

Committer testing:

So in machines without this capability we get a "N/A" filling the new "Blocked"
column:

4b799a9b77 perf script: Support DSO filter like in other perf tools 
Other perf tool builtins already supported a DSO filter.

For example:

  $ perf report --dsos a,b,c

which only considers symbols in these dsos.

Now the DSO filter is supported in 'perf script':

47fddcb479 perf tools: Add 'ping' control command 
Add a control 'ping' command to detect if perf is up and its control
interface is operational.

It will be used in following daemon patches to synchronize with record
session - when control interface is up and running, we know that perf
record is monitoring and ready to receive signals.

Example session:

  terminal 1:

    # mkfifo control ack
    # perf record --control=fifo:control,ack

  terminal 2:

    # echo ping > control
    # cat ack
    ack

142544a938 perf tools: Add 'evlist' control command 
Add a new 'evlist' control command to display all the evlist events.
When it is received, perf will scan and print current evlist into perf
record terminal.

The interface string for control file is:

  evlist [-v|-g|-F]

The syntax follows perf evlist command:
  -F  Show just the sample frequency used for each event.
  -v  Show all fields.
  -g  Show event group information.

Example session:

  terminal 1:
    # mkfifo control ack
    # perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -e '{cycles,instructions}'

  terminal 2:
    # echo evlist > control

  terminal 1:
    cycles
    instructions
    dummy:HG

  terminal 2:
    # echo 'evlist -v' > control

  terminal 1:
    cycles: size: 120, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type:            \
    IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, freq: 1,    \
    sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1
    instructions: size: 120, config: 0x1, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000,      \
    sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, inherit: 1, freq: 1,    \
    sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1
    dummy:HG: type: 1, size: 120, config: 0x9, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, \
    sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, inherit: 1, mmap: 1,    \
    comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1, ksymbol: 1, \
     bpf_event: 1

  terminal 2:
    # echo 'evlist -g' > control

  terminal 1:
    {cycles,instructions}
    dummy:HG

  terminal 2:
    # echo 'evlist -F' > control

  terminal 1:
    cycles: sample_freq=4000
    instructions: sample_freq=4000
    dummy:HG: sample_freq=4000

This new evlist command is handy to get real event names when
wildcards are used.

Adding evsel_fprintf.c object to python/perf.so build, because
it's now evlist.c dependency.

Adding PYTHON_PERF define for python/perf.so compilation, so we
can use it to compile in only evsel__fprintf from evsel_fprintf.c
object.

991ae4eb36 perf tools: Allow to enable/disable events via control file 
Adding new control events to enable/disable specific event.
The interface string for control file are:

  'enable <EVENT NAME>'
  'disable <EVENT NAME>'

when received the command, perf will scan the current evlist
for <EVENT NAME> and if found it's enabled/disabled.

Example session:

  terminal 1:
    # mkfifo control ack perf.pipe
    # perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -D -1 --no-buffering -e 'sched:*' -o - > perf.pipe

  terminal 2:
    # cat perf.pipe | perf --no-pager script -i -

  terminal 1:
    Events disabled

  NOTE Above message will show only after read side of the pipe ('>')
  is started on 'terminal 2'. The 'terminal 1's bash does not execute
  perf before that, hence the delyaed perf record message.

  terminal 3:
    # echo 'enable sched:sched_process_fork' > control

  terminal 1:
    event sched:sched_process_fork enabled

  terminal 2:
    bash 33349 [034] 149587.674295: sched:sched_process_fork: comm=bash pid=33349 child_comm=bash child_pid=34056
    bash 33349 [034] 149588.239521: sched:sched_process_fork: comm=bash pid=33349 child_comm=bash child_pid=34057

  terminal 3:
    # echo 'enable sched:sched_wakeup_new' > control

  terminal 1:
    event sched:sched_wakeup_new enabled

  terminal 2:
    bash 33349 [034] 149632.228023: sched:sched_process_fork: comm=bash pid=33349 child_comm=bash child_pid=34059
    bash 33349 [034] 149632.228050:   sched:sched_wakeup_new: bash:34059 [120] success=1 CPU:036
    bash 33349 [034] 149633.950005: sched:sched_process_fork: comm=bash pid=33349 child_comm=bash child_pid=34060
    bash 33349 [034] 149633.950030:   sched:sched_wakeup_new: bash:34060 [120] success=1 CPU:036

Committer testing:

If I use 'sched:*' and then enable all events, I can't get 'perf record'
to react to further commands, so I tested it with:

  [root@five ~]# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -D -1 --no-buffering -e 'sched:sched_process_*' -o - > perf.pipe
  Events disabled
  Events enabled
  Events disabled

And then it works as expected, so we need to fix this pre-existing
problem.

Another issue, we need to check if a event is already enabled or
disabled and change the message to be clearer, i.e.:

  [root@five ~]# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -D -1 --no-buffering -e 'sched:sched_process_*' -o - > perf.pipe
  Events disabled

If we receive a 'disable' command, then it should say:

  [root@five ~]# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -D -1 --no-buffering -e 'sched:sched_process_*' -o - > perf.pipe
  Events disabled
  Events already disabled

fa853c4b83 perf stat: Enable counting events for BPF programs 
Introduce 'perf stat -b' option, which counts events for BPF programs, like:

  [root@localhost ~]# ~/perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles -b 254 -I 1000
     1.487903822            115,200      ref-cycles
     1.487903822             86,012      cycles
     2.489147029             80,560      ref-cycles
     2.489147029             73,784      cycles
     3.490341825             60,720      ref-cycles
     3.490341825             37,797      cycles
     4.491540887             37,120      ref-cycles
     4.491540887             31,963      cycles

The example above counts 'cycles' and 'ref-cycles' of BPF program of id
254.  This is similar to bpftool-prog-profile command, but more
flexible.

'perf stat -b' creates per-cpu perf_event and loads fentry/fexit BPF
programs (monitor-progs) to the target BPF program (target-prog). The
monitor-progs read perf_event before and after the target-prog, and
aggregate the difference in a BPF map. Then the user space reads data
from these maps.

A new 'struct bpf_counter' is introduced to provide a common interface
that uses BPF programs/maps to count perf events.

Committer notes:

Removed all but bpf_counter.h includes from evsel.h, not needed at all.

Also BPF map lookups for PERCPU_ARRAYs need to have as its value receive
buffer passed to the kernel libbpf_num_possible_cpus() entries, not
evsel__nr_cpus(evsel), as the former uses
/sys/devices/system/cpu/possible while the later uses
/sys/devices/system/cpu/online, which may be less than the 'possible'
number making the bpf map lookup overwrite memory and cause hard to
debug memory corruption.

We need to continue using evsel__nr_cpus(evsel) when accessing the
perf_counts array tho, not to overwrite another are of memory :-)

e29386c8f7 perf record: Add --buildid-mmap option to enable PERF_RECORD_MMAP2's build id 
Add --buildid-mmap option to enable build id in PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 events.

It will only work if there's kernel support for that and it disables
build id cache (implies --no-buildid).

It's also possible to enable it permanently via config option in
~/.perfconfig file:

  [record]
  build-id=mmap

Also added build_id bit in the verbose output for perf_event_attr:

  # perf record --buildid-mmap -vv
  ...
  perf_event_attr:
    type                             1
    size                             120
    ...
    build_id                         1

Adding also missing text_poke bit.

Committer testing:

  $ perf record -h build

   Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
      or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

      -B, --no-buildid      do not collect buildids in perf.data
      -N, --no-buildid-cache
                            do not update the buildid cache
          --buildid-all     Record build-id of all DSOs regardless of hits
          --buildid-mmap    Record build-id in map events

  $

  $ perf record --buildid-mmap sleep 1

55a4de94c6 perf stat: Add --quiet option 
Add a new --quiet option to 'perf stat'. This is useful with 'perf stat
record' to write the data only to the perf.data file, which can lower
measurement overhead because the data doesn't need to be formatted.

On my 4C desktop:

  % time ./perf stat record  -e $(python -c 'print ",".join(["cycles"]*1000)')  -a -I 1000 sleep 5
  ...
  real    0m5.377s
  user    0m0.238s
  sys     0m0.452s
  % time ./perf stat record --quiet -e $(python -c 'print ",".join(["cycles"]*1000)')  -a -I 1000 sleep 5

  real    0m5.452s
  user    0m0.183s
  sys     0m0.423s

In this example it cuts the user time by 20%. On systems with more cores
the savings are higher.

0997a2662f perf tools: Add support for exclusive groups/events 
Peter suggested that using the exclusive mode in perf could avoid some
problems with bad scheduling of groups. Exclusive is implemented in the
kernel, but wasn't exposed by the perf tool, so hard to use without
custom low level API users.

Add support for marking groups or events with :e for exclusive in the
perf tool.  The implementation is basically the same as the existing
pinned attribute.

Committer testing:

  # perf test "parse event"

d1c5a0e86a perf stat: Add --for-each-cgroup option 
The --for-each-cgroup option is a syntax sugar to monitor large number
of cgroups easily.  Current command line requires to list all the events
and cgroups even if users want to monitor same events for each cgroup.
This patch addresses that usage by copying given events for each cgroup
on user's behalf.

For instance, if they want to monitor 6 events for 200 cgroups each they
should write 1200 event names (with -e) AND 1200 cgroup names (with -G)
on the command line.  But with this change, they can just specify 6
events and 200 cgroups with a new option.

A simpler example below: It wants to measure 3 events for 2 cgroups ('A'
and 'B').  The result is that total 6 events are counted like below.

  $ perf stat -a -e cpu-clock,cycles,instructions --for-each-cgroup A,B sleep 1

55c36a9fc2 perf stat: Support new per thread TopDown metrics 
Icelake has support for reporting per thread TopDown metrics.

These are reported differently than the previous TopDown support,
each metric is standalone, but scaled to pipeline "slots".

We don't need to do anything special for HyperThreading anymore.
Teach perf stat --topdown to handle these new metrics and
print them in the same way as the previous TopDown metrics.

The restrictions of only being able to report information per core is
gone.

2ae05fe0a9 perf: ftrace: Add filter support for option -F/--funcs 
Same as 'perf probe -F', this patch adds filter support for the ftrace
subcommand option '-F, --funcs <[FILTER]>'.

Here is an example that only lists functions which start with 'vfs_':

  $ sudo perf ftrace -F vfs_*
  vfs_fadvise
  vfs_fallocate
  vfs_truncate
  vfs_open
  vfs_setpos
  vfs_llseek
  vfs_readf
  vfs_writef
  ...

d20aff1512 perf record: Add 'snapshot' control command 
Add 'snapshot' control command to create an AUX area tracing snapshot
the same as if sending SIGUSR2. The advantage of the FIFO is that access
is governed by access to the FIFO.

Example:

  $ mkfifo perf.control
  $ mkfifo perf.ack
  $ cat perf.ack &
  [1] 15235
  $ sudo ~/bin/perf record --control fifo:perf.control,perf.ack -S -e intel_pt//u -- sleep 60 &
  [2] 15243
  $ ps -e | grep perf
   15244 pts/1    00:00:00 perf
  $ kill -USR2 15244
  bash: kill: (15244) - Operation not permitted
  $ echo snapshot > perf.control
  ack

ee6a961432 perf stat: Turn off summary for interval mode by default 
There's a risk that outputting interval mode summaries by default breaks
CSV consumers. It already broke pmu-tools/toplev.

So now we turn off the summary by default but we create a new option
'--summary' to enable the summary. This is active even when not using
CSV mode.

This adds an option '-m/--buffer-size' to allow us set the size of per-cpu
tracing buffer.

Committer testing:

Before running with this option:

  # find /sys/kernel/tracing/ -name buffer_size_kb | xargs cat
  1408
  1408
  1408
  1408
  1408
  1408
  1408
  1408
  1408
  #

Then, run:

  # perf ftrace -m 2048K | head -10
   2)               |  mutex_unlock() {
   2)   ==========> |
   2)               |    smp_irq_work_interrupt() {
   2)               |      irq_enter() {
   2)   0.121 us    |        rcu_irq_enter();
   2)   0.128 us    |        irqtime_account_irq();
   2)   0.719 us    |      }
   2)               |      __wake_up() {
   2)               |        __wake_up_common_lock() {
   2)   0.105 us    |          _raw_spin_lock_irqsave();
  #

Now look at those tracefs knobs:

  # find /sys/kernel/tracing/ -name buffer_size_kb | xargs cat
  2048
  2048
  2048
  2048
  2048
  2048
  2048
  2048
  2048
  #

This should be similar to the -m option in the other perf tools, such as
'perf record', 'perf trace', etc.

eb6d31ae22 perf ftrace: Select function/function_graph tracer automatically 
The '-g/-G' options have already implied function_graph tracer should be
used instead of function tracer. So we don't need extra option
'--tracer' in this case.

This patch changes the behavior as below:

  - If '-g' or '-G' option is on, then function_graph tracer is used.
  - If '-T' or '-N' option is on, then function tracer is used.
  - The function_graph has priority over function tracer.
  - The option '--tracer' only take effect if neither -g/-G nor -T/-N
    is specified.

Here are some examples.

This will start tracing all functions using default tracer:

  $ sudo perf ftrace

This will trace all functions using function graph tracer:

  $ sudo perf ftrace -G '*'

This will trace function vfs_read using function graph tracer:

  $ sudo perf ftrace -G vfs_read

This will trace function vfs_read using function tracer:

  $ sudo perf ftrace -T vfs_read

Committer notes:

Using '-h -G' will tell what that option is about, so to further clarify
the above examples:

  # perf ftrace -h -G

    -G, --graph-funcs <func>	Set graph filter on given functions

  # perf ftrace -h -g

    -g, --nograph-funcs <func>	Set nograph filter on given functions

  # perf ftrace -h -T

    -T, --trace-funcs <func>	trace given functions only

  # perf ftrace -h -N

    -N, --notrace-funcs <func>	do not trace given functions

  #

88371c5898 perf data: Add support to store time of day in CTF data conversion 
Adad support to convert and store time of day in CTF data conversion for
'perf data convert' subcommand.

The perf.data used for conversion needs to have clock data information -
must be recorded with -k/--clockid option).

New --tod option is added to 'perf data convert' subcommand to convert
data with timestamps converted to wall clock time.

Record data with clockid set:

  # perf record -k CLOCK_MONOTONIC kill

d1e325cf40 perf header: Store clock references for -k/--clockid option 
Add a new CLOCK_DATA feature that stores reference times when
-k/--clockid option is specified.

It contains the clock id and its reference time together with wall clock
time taken at the 'same time', both values are in nanoseconds.

The format of data is as below:

  struct {
       u32 version;  /* version = 1 */
       u32 clockid;
       u64 wall_clock_ns;
       u64 clockid_time_ns;
  };

This clock reference times will be used in following changes to display
wall clock for perf events.

It's available only for recording with clockid specified, because it's
the only case where we can get reference time to wallclock time. It's
can't do that with perf clock yet.

  $ perf record -h -k

347a7389a7 perf intel-pt: Add support for decoding PSB+ only 
A single q option decodes ip from only FUP/TIP packets. Make it so that
repeating the q option (i.e. qq) decodes only PSB+, getting ip if there

c2a0820305 perf bench: Add basic syscall benchmark 
The usefulness of having a standard way of testing syscall performance
has come up from time to time[0]. Furthermore, some of our testing
machinery (such as 'mmtests') already makes use of a simplified version
of the microbenchmark. This patch mainly takes the same idea to measure
syscall throughput compatible with 'perf-bench' via getppid(2), yet
without any of the additional template stuff from Ingo's version (based
on numa.c). The code is identical to what mmtests uses.

[0] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20160201074156.GA27156@gmail.com/

Committer notes:

Add mising stdlib.h and unistd.h to get the prototypes for exit() and
getppid().

event tables for all processors supported by perf_events. It is a helper
library that helps convert from a symbolic event name to the event
encoding required by the underlying kernel interface. This library is
open-source and available from: http://perfmon2.sf.net.

With this patch, it is possible to specify full hardware events by name.
Hardware filters are also supported. Events must be specified via the
--pfm-events and not -e option. Both options are active at the same time
and it is possible to mix and match:

  $ perf stat --pfm-events inst_retired:any_p:c=1:i -e cycles ....

One needs to explicitely ask for its inclusion by using the LIBPFM4 make
command line option, ie its opt-in rather than opt-out of feature
detection and build support.

16b4b4e1a0 perf record: Respect --no-switch-events 
Context switch events are added automatically by Intel PT and Coresight.

Make it possible to suppress them. That is useful for tracing the
scheduler without the disturbance that the switch event processing
creates.

Example:

  Prerequisites:

    $ which perf
    ~/bin/perf
    $ sudo setcap "cap_sys_rawio,cap_sys_admin,cap_sys_ptrace,cap_syslog,cap_ipc_lock=ep" ~/bin/perf
    $ sudo chmod +r /proc/kcore

  Before:

    $ perf record --no-switch-events --kcore -a -e intel_pt//k -- sleep 0.001
    [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.938 MB perf.data ]
    $ perf script -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SWITCH | wc -l
    572

  After:

    $ perf record --no-switch-events --kcore -a -e intel_pt//k -- sleep 0.001
    Warning:
    Intel Processor Trace decoding will not be possible except for kernel tracing!
    [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.838 MB perf.data ]
    $ perf script -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SWITCH | wc -l
    0

    $ sudo chmod go-r /proc/kcore
    $ sudo setcap -r ~/bin/perf

05530a7921 perf metricgroup: Add options to not group or merge 
Add --metric-no-group that causes all events within metrics to not be
grouped. This can allow the event to get more time when multiplexed, but
may also lower accuracy.
Add --metric-no-merge option. By default events in different metrics may
be shared if the group of events for one metric is the same or larger
than that of the second. Sharing may increase or lower accuracy and so
is now configurable.

Add support for new "stat.big-num" boolean option.

This allows a user to set a default for "--no-big-num" for "perf stat"

There is an interaction with "--field-separator" that must be
accommodated, such that specifying "--big-num --field-separator={x}"
still reports an invalid combination of options.

per 'perf mem record -e list'. Previous behavior is:

  $ perf c2c record -e list
  failed: event 'list' not found, use '-e list' to get list of available events

   Usage: perf c2c record [<options>] [<command>]
      or: perf c2c record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

      -e, --event <event>   event selector. Use 'perf mem record -e list' to list available events
  $

New behavior:

  $ perf c2c record -e list
  ldlat-loads  : available
  ldlat-stores : available

899e5ffbf2 perf record: Introduce --switch-output-event 
Now we can use it with --overwrite to have a flight recorder mode that
gets snapshot requests from arbitrary events that are processed in the
side band thread together with the PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT processing.

Example:

To collect scheduler events until a recvmmsg syscall happens, system
wide:

  [root@five a]# rm -f perf.data.2020042717*
  [root@five a]# perf record --overwrite -e sched:*switch,syscalls:*recvmmsg --switch-output-event syscalls:sys_enter_recvmmsg
  [ perf record: dump data: Woken up 1 times ]
  [ perf record: Dump perf.data.2020042717585458 ]
  [ perf record: dump data: Woken up 1 times ]
  [ perf record: Dump perf.data.2020042717590235 ]
  [ perf record: dump data: Woken up 1 times ]
  [ perf record: Dump perf.data.2020042717590398 ]
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Dump perf.data.2020042717590511 ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 7.244 MB perf.data.<timestamp> ]

So in the above case we had 3 snapshots, the fourth was forced by
control+C:

  [root@five a]# ls -la
  total 20440
  drwxr-xr-x.  2 root root    4096 Apr 27 17:59 .
  dr-xr-x---. 12 root root    4096 Apr 27 17:46 ..
  -rw-------.  1 root root 3936125 Apr 27 17:58 perf.data.2020042717585458
  -rw-------.  1 root root 5074869 Apr 27 17:59 perf.data.2020042717590235
  -rw-------.  1 root root 4291037 Apr 27 17:59 perf.data.2020042717590398
  -rw-------.  1 root root 7617037 Apr 27 17:59 perf.data.2020042717590511
  [root@five a]#

One can make this more precise by adding the switch output event to the
main -e events list, as since this is done asynchronously, a few events
after the signal event will appear in the snapshots, as can be seen
with:

  [root@five a]# rm -f perf.data.20200427175*
  [root@five a]# perf record --overwrite -e sched:*switch,syscalls:*recvmmsg --switch-output-event syscalls:sys_enter_recvmmsg

d99c22eabe perf record: Add num-synthesize-threads option 
To control degree of parallelism of the synthesize_mmap() code which
is scanning /proc/PID/task/PID/maps and can be time consuming.
Mimic perf top way of handling the option.
If not specified will default to 1 thread, i.e. default behavior before
this option.

On a desktop computer the processing of /proc/PID/task/PID/maps isn't
slow enough to warrant parallel processing and the thread creation has
some cost - hence the default of 1. On a loaded server with
>100 cores it is possible to see synthesis times in the order of
seconds and in this case having the option is desirable.

As the processing is a synchronization point, it is legitimate to worry if
Amdahl's law will apply to this patch. Profiling with this patch in
place:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200415054050.31645-4-irogers@google.com/
shows:
...
      - 32.59% __perf_event__synthesize_threads
         - 32.54% __event__synthesize_thread
            + 22.13% perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events
            + 6.68% perf_event__get_comm_ids.constprop.0
            + 1.49% process_synthesized_event
            + 1.29% __GI___readdir64
            + 0.60% __opendir
...
That is the processing is 1.49% of execution time and there is plenty to
make parallel. This is shown in the benchmark in this patch:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200415054050.31645-2-irogers@google.com/

     Average num. events: 21564.000 (+- 0.000)
     Average time per event 2.269 usec

Where average time per synthesized event goes from 5.927 usec with 1
thread to 2.269 usec with 8. This isn't a linear speed up as not all of
synthesize code has been made parallel. If the synthesis time was about
10 seconds then using 8 threads may bring this down to less than 4.

197ba86fdc perf stat: Improve runtime stat for interval mode 
For interval mode, the metric is printed after the '#' character if it

interval.

See the following examples:

  root@kbl-ppc:~# perf stat -M CPI -I1000 --interval-count 2
  #           time             counts unit events
       1.000422803            764,809      inst_retired.any          #      2.9 CPI
       1.000422803          2,234,932      cycles

       2.001464585          4,022,591      cycles

The second CPI should not be 1.6 (4,022,591/1,960,061 is 2.1)

  root@kbl-ppc:~# perf stat -e cycles,instructions -I1000 --interval-count 2
  #           time             counts unit events
       1.000429493          2,869,311      cycles
       1.000429493            816,875      instructions              #    0.28  insn per cycle
       2.001516426          9,260,973      cycles
       2.001516426          5,250,634      instructions              #    0.87  insn per cycle

The second 'insn per cycle' should not be 0.87 (5,250,634/9,260,973 is
0.57).

The current code uses a global variable 'rt_stat' for tracking and
updating the std dev of runtime stat. Unlike the counts, 'rt_stat' is not
reset for interval. While the counts are reset for interval.

  perf_stat_process_counter()
  {
          if (config->interval)
                  init_stats(ps->res_stats);
  }

So for interval mode, the 'rt_stat' variable should be reset too.

This patch resets 'rt_stat' before read_counters(), so the runtime stat
is only calculated by the counts generated in this interval.

With this patch:

  root@kbl-ppc:~# perf stat -M CPI -I1000 --interval-count 2
  #           time             counts unit events
       1.000420924          2,408,818      inst_retired.any          #      2.1 CPI
       1.000420924          5,010,111      cycles
       2.001448579          2,798,407      inst_retired.any          #      1.6 CPI
       2.001448579          4,599,861      cycles

  root@kbl-ppc:~# perf stat -e cycles,instructions -I1000 --interval-count 2
  #           time             counts unit events
       1.000428555          2,769,714      cycles
       1.000428555            774,462      instructions              #    0.28  insn per cycle
       2.001471562          3,595,904      cycles
       2.001471562          1,243,703      instructions              #    0.35  insn per cycle

Now the second 'insn per cycle' and CPI are calculated by the counts
generated in this interval.

d80da766d1 perf c2c: Add option to enable the LBR stitching approach 
With the LBR stitching approach, the reconstructed LBR call stack can
break the HW limitation. However, it may reconstruct invalid call stacks
in some cases, e.g. exception handing such as setjmp/longjmp.  Also, it
may impact the processing time especially when the number of samples
with stitched LBRs are huge.

Add an option to enable the approach.

6f91ea283a perf header: Support CPU PMU capabilities 
To stitch LBR call stack, the max LBR information is required. So the
CPU PMU capabilities information has to be stored in perf header.

Add a new feature HEADER_CPU_PMU_CAPS for CPU PMU capabilities.
Retrieve all CPU PMU capabilities, not just max LBR information.

Add variable max_branches to facilitate future usage.

Committer testing:

  # ls -la /sys/devices/cpu/caps/

  drwxr-xr-x. 6 root root    0 Apr 17 07:02 ..

  # perf report --header-only | egrep 'cpu(desc|.*capabilities)'

3a6c51e4d6 perf parser: Add support to specify rXXX event with pmu 
The current rXXXX event specification creates event under PERF_TYPE_RAW
pmu type. This change allows to use rXXXX within pmu syntax, so it's
type is used via the following syntax:

  -e 'cpu/r3c/'
  -e 'cpum_cf/r0/'

The XXXX number goes directly to perf_event_attr::config the same way as
in '-e rXXXX' event. The perf_event_attr::type is filled with pmu type.

Committer testing:

So, lets see what goes in perf_event_attr::config for, say, the
'instructions' PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE (0) event, first we should look at how
to encode this event as a PERF_TYPE_RAW event for this specific CPU, an
AMD Ryzen 5:

  # cat /sys/devices/cpu/events/instructions
  event=0xc0
  #

Then try with it _and_ the instruction, just to see that they are close
enough:

  # perf stat -e rc0,instructions sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':

             919,794      rc0
             919,898      instructions

         1.000754579 seconds time elapsed

         0.000715000 seconds user
         0.000000000 seconds sys
  #

Now we should try, before this patch, the PMU event encoding:

  # perf stat -e cpu/rc0/ sleep 1
  event syntax error: 'cpu/rc0/'
                           \___ unknown term

  valid terms: event,edge,inv,umask,cmask,config,config1,config2,name,period,percore
  #

Now with this patch, the three ways of specifying the 'instructions' CPU
counter are accepted:

  # perf stat -e cpu/rc0/,rc0,instructions sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':

             892,948      cpu/rc0/
             893,052      rc0
             893,156      instructions

         1.000931819 seconds time elapsed

         0.000916000 seconds user
         0.000000000 seconds sys

e345997914 perf tools: Add support for leader-sampling with AUX area events 
When AUX area events are used in sampling mode, they must be the group
leader, but the group leader is also used for leader-sampling. However,
it is not desirable to use an AUX area event as the leader for
leader-sampling, because it doesn't have any samples of its own. To support
leader-sampling with AUX area events, use the 2nd event of the group as the
"leader" for the purposes of leader-sampling.

Example:

 # perf record --kcore --aux-sample -e '{intel_pt//,cycles,instructions}:S' -c 10000 uname
 [ perf record: Woken up 3 times to write data ]
 [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.786 MB perf.data ]

2a4b51666a perf bench: Add event synthesis benchmark 
Event synthesis may occur at the start or end (tail) of a perf command.
In system-wide mode it can scan every process in /proc, which may add
seconds of latency before event recording. Add a new benchmark that
times how long event synthesis takes with and without data synthesis.

An example execution looks like:

 $ perf bench internals synthesize
 # Running 'internals/synthesize' benchmark:
 Average synthesis took: 168.253800 usec
 Average data synthesis took: 208.104700 usec

df7deb2cce perf top: Support --group-sort-idx to change the sort order 
'perf report' supports the option --group-sort-idx, which sorts the
output by the event at the index n in event group.

For example:

  perf record -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses
  perf report --group --group-sort-idx 2 --stdio

The perf-report output is sorted by cache-misses.

This patch supports --group-sort-idx in perf-top.

For example:

  perf top --group -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses --group-sort-idx 2

The perf-top output is sorted by cache-misses.

f382842fa0 perf top: Add --all-cgroups option 
The --all-cgroups option is to enable cgroup profiling support.  It
tells kernel to record CGROUP events in the ring buffer so that 'perf
top' can identify task/cgroup association later.

Committer testing:

Use:

  # perf top --all-cgroups -s cgroup_id,cgroup,pid

b629f3e9d0 perf report: Add 'cgroup' sort key 
The cgroup sort key is to show cgroup membership of each task.
Currently it shows full path in the cgroupfs (not relative to the root
of cgroup namespace) since it'd be more intuitive IMHO.  Otherwise root
cgroup in different namespaces will all show same name - "/".

The cgroup sort key should come before cgroup_id otherwise
sort_dimension__add() will match it to cgroup_id as it only matches with
the given substring.

For example it will look like following.  Note that record patch adding
--all-cgroups patch will come later.

  $ perf record -a --namespace --all-cgroups  cgtest
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.208 MB perf.data (4090 samples) ]

26567ed79d perf script: Introduce --deltatime option 
For some kind of analysis a deltatime output is more human friendly and
reduce the cognitive load for further analysis.

The following output demonstrate the new option "deltatime": calculate
the time difference in relation to the previous event.

  $ perf script --deltatime

So go from default output to --reltime and then this new --deltatime, to
contrast the various timestamp presentation modes for a random perf.data file I

Andi suggested we better implement it as a new field, i.e. -F deltatime, like:

  [root@five ~]# perf script -F deltatime
  Invalid field requested.

   Usage: perf script [<options>]
      or: perf script [<options>] record <script> [<record-options>] <command>
      or: perf script [<options>] report <script> [script-args]
      or: perf script [<options>] <script> [<record-options>] <command>

I.e. we have -F for maximum flexibility:

            perf 442394 [001]  7600.157906:

But since we already have --reltime, having --deltatime, documented one after
the other is sensible.

429a5f9d89 perf report: Allow specifying event to be used as sort key in --group output 
When performing "perf report --group", it shows the event group
information together. By default, the output is sorted by the first
event in group.

It would be nice for user to select any event for sorting. This patch
introduces a new option "--group-sort-idx" to sort the output by the
event at the index n in event group.

For example,

Before:

  # perf report --group --stdio

  # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.

Now the output is sorted by the fourth event in group.

 v7:
 ---
 Rebase to latest perf/core, no other change.

 v4:
 ---
 1. Update Documentation/perf-report.txt to mention
    '--group-sort-idx' support multiple groups with different
    amount of events and it should be used on grouped events.

 2. Update __hpp__group_sort_idx(), just return when the
    idx is out of limit.

 3. Return failure on symbol_conf.group_sort_idx && !session->evlist->nr_groups.
    So now we don't need to use together with --group.

 v3:
 ---
 Refine the code in __hpp__group_sort_idx().

 Before:
   for (i = 1; i < nr_members; i++) {
        if (i == idx) {
                ret = field_cmp(fields_a[i], fields_b[i]);
                if (ret)
                        goto out;
        }
   }

 After:
   if (idx >= 1 && idx < nr_members) {
        ret = field_cmp(fields_a[idx], fields_b[idx]);
        if (ret)
                goto out;
   }

1af62ce61c perf stat: Show percore counts in per CPU output 
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

  Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

 CPU0               2,752,148      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/
 CPU1               1,009,312      cpu/event=cpu-cycles,percore/

 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.

9974406884 perf kvm: Clarify the 'perf kvm' -i and -o command line options 
The 'perf kvm' subcommand has options that it in turn passes to other
perf subcommands such as 'report' and 'record', particularly -i and -o
end up setting the same variable that will then be used for 'record's -o
and report '-i', which ends up being confusing, leading some to think
that both -i and -o can be used with 'report'.

Improve the man page to state that -i is used with the post-processing
subcommands while -o is used just with 'record' and that to save the
output of 'report' one should simply redirect its output to a file.

Noticed while reading the https://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Perf_events
page.

eb7a52d46c perf record: Add aux-sample-size config term 
To allow individual events to be selected for AUX area sampling, add
aux-sample-size config term. attr.aux_sample_size is updated by
auxtrace_parse_sample_options() so that the existing validation will see
the value. Any event that has a non-zero aux_sample_size will cause AUX
area sampling to be configured, irrespective of the --aux-sample option.

c0a6de06c4 perf record: Add support for AUX area sampling 
Add a 'perf record' option '--aux-sample' to request AUX area sampling.
AUX area sampling uses an overwriting buffer much like snapshot mode, so
adjust the AUX buffer mmapping accordingly. To make it easy to queue
samples for decoding, synthesize an ID index.

Committer notes:

Just like the 'verbose' variable this new 'debug_peo_args' needs to be
added to util/python.c, since we don't link the debug.o file in the
python binding, which ended up making 'perf test python' fail with:

  # perf test -v python
  18: 'import perf' in python                               :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 19237
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  ImportError: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: debug_peo_args
  test child finished with -1
  ---- end ----
  'import perf' in python: FAILED!
  #

After adding that new variable to util/python.c:

  # perf test -v python
  18: 'import perf' in python                               :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 22364
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----

6f7164fa23 perf report: Sort by sampled cycles percent per block for stdio 
It would be useful to support sorting for all blocks by the sampled
cycles percent per block. This is useful to concentrate on the globally
hottest blocks.

This patch implements a new option "--total-cycles" which sorts all
blocks by 'Sampled Cycles%'. The 'Sampled Cycles%' is the percent:

 percent = block sampled cycles aggregation / total sampled cycles

Note that, this patch only supports "--stdio" mode.

For example,

  # perf record -b ./div
  # perf report --total-cycles --stdio
  # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
  #
  # Total Lost Samples: 0
  #
  # Samples: 2M of event 'cycles'
  # Event count (approx.): 2753248
  #
  # Sampled Cycles%  Sampled Cycles  Avg Cycles%  Avg Cycles                             [Program Block Range]      Shared Object
  # ...............  ..............  ...........  ..........  ................................................  .................

 -----------------------------------------------------------

 v7:
 ---
 Use use_browser in report__browse_block_hists for supporting
 stdio and potential tui mode.

 v6:
 ---
 Create report__browse_block_hists in block-info.c (codes are
 moved from builtin-report.c). It's called from
 perf_evlist__tty_browse_hists.

 v5:
 ---
 1. Move all block functions to block-info.c

 2. Move the code of setting ms in block hist_entry to
    other patch.

 v4:
 ---
 1. Use new option '--total-cycles' to replace
    '-s total_cycles' in v3.

 2. Move block info collection out of block info
    printing.

 v3:
 ---
 1. Use common function block_info__process_sym to
    process the blocks per symbol.

 2. Remove the nasty hack for skipping calculation
    of column length

 3. Some minor cleanup

6d57581659 perf record: Add support for limit perf output file size 
The patch adds a new option to limit the output file size, then based on
it, we can create a wrapper of the perf command that uses the option to
avoid exhausting the disk space by the unconscious user.

In order to make the perf.data parsable, we just limit the sample data
size, since the perf.data consists of many headers and sample data and
other data, the actual size of the recorded file will bigger than the
setting value.

Testing it:

  # ./perf record -a -g --max-size=10M
  Couldn't synthesize bpf events.
  [ perf record: perf size limit reached (10249 KB), stopping session ]
  [ perf record: Woken up 32 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 10.133 MB perf.data (71964 samples) ]

  # ls -lh perf.data
  -rw------- 1 root root 11M Oct 22 14:32 perf.data

  # ./perf record -a -g --max-size=10K
  [ perf record: perf size limit reached (10 KB), stopping session ]
  Couldn't synthesize bpf events.
  [ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.546 MB perf.data (69 samples) ]

  # ls -l perf.data
  -rw------- 1 root root 1626952 Oct 22 14:36 perf.data

Committer notes:

Fixed the build in multiple distros by using PRIu64 to print u64 struct
members, fixing this:

  builtin-record.c: In function 'record__write':
  builtin-record.c:150:5: error: format '%lu' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 3 has type 'u64' [-Werror=format=]
       rec->bytes_written >> 10);

eeb399b531 perf record: Put a copy of kcore into the perf.data directory 
Add a new 'perf record' option '--kcore' which will put a copy of
/proc/kcore, kallsyms and modules into a perf.data directory. Note, that
without the --kcore option, output goes to a file as previously.  The
tools' -o and -i options work with either a file name or directory name.

Example:

  $ sudo perf record --kcore uname

  $ sudo tree perf.data
  perf.data
  ├── kcore_dir
  │   ├── kallsyms
  │   ├── kcore
  │   └── modules
  └── data

46e201efa1 perf data: Support single perf.data file directory 
Support directory output that contains a regular perf.data file, named
"data". By default the directory is named perf.data i.e.
	perf.data
	└── data

Most of the infrastructure to support a directory is already there. This
patch makes the changes needed to support the format above.

Presently there is no 'perf record' option to output a directory.

This is preparation for adding support for putting a copy of /proc/kcore in
the directory.

a7f6c8c81a perf list: Hide deprecated events by default 
There are some deprecated events listed by perf list. But we can't
remove them from perf list with ease because some old scripts may use
them.

Deprecated events are old names of renamed events.  When an event gets
renamed the old name is kept around for some time and marked with
Deprecated. The newer Intel event lists in the tree already have these
headers.

So we need to keep them in the event list, but provide a new option to
show them. The new option is "--deprecated".

With this patch, the deprecated events are hidden by default but they
can be displayed when option "--deprecated" is enabled.

dd071024bf perf stat: Support --all-kernel/--all-user 
'perf record' has supported --all-kernel / --all-user to configure all
used events to run in kernel space or run in user space. But 'perf stat'
doesn't support these options.

It would be useful to support these options in 'perf stat' too to keep
the same semantics available in both tools.

cebf7d51a6 perf diff: Report noisy for cycles diff 
This patch prints the stddev and hist for the cycles diff of program
block. It can help us to understand if the cycles is noisy or not.

  https://lwn.net/Articles/600471/

We create new option '--cycles-hist'.

Example:

  perf record -b ./div
  perf record -b ./div
  perf diff -c cycles

 Rebase to perf/core branch

 v7:
 ---
 1. v6 got Jiri's ACK.
 2. Rebase to latest perf/core branch.

 v6:
 ---
 1. Jiri provides better code for using data__hpp_register() in ui_init().
    Use this code in v6.

 v5:
 ---
 1. Refine the use of data__hpp_register() in ui_init() according to
    Jiri's suggestion.

 v4:
 ---
 1. Rename the new option from '--noisy' to '--cycles-hist'
 2. Remove the option '-n'.
 3. Only update the spark value and stats when '--cycles-hist' is enabled.
 4. Remove the code of printing '..'.

 v3:
 ---
 1. Move the histogram to a separate column
 2. Move the svals[] out of struct stats

 v2:
 ---
 Jiri got a compile error,

  CC       builtin-diff.o
  builtin-diff.c: In function ‘compute_cycles_diff’:
  builtin-diff.c:712:10: error: taking the absolute value of unsigned type ‘u64’ {aka ‘long unsigned int’} has no effect [-Werror=absolute-value]
  712 |          labs(pair->block_info->cycles_spark[i] -
      |          ^~~~

 Because the result of u64 - u64 is still u64. Now we change the type of
 cycles_spark[] to s64.

d4097f1937 perf trace: Introduce --filter for tracepoint events 
Similar to what is in 'perf record', works just like there:

  # perf trace -e msr:*
   328.297 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.302 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.306 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.317 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.322 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.327 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.331 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.336 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
   328.340 :0/0 ^Cmsr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
  #

So, for a system wide trace session looking at the write_msr tracepoint
we see a flood of MSR_FS_BASE, we need to get the number for that:

  # grep FS_BASE /tmp/build/perf/trace/beauty/generated/x86_arch_MSRs_array.c
	[0xc0000100 - x86_64_specific_MSRs_offset] = "FS_BASE",
  #

And then use it in a filter:

  # perf trace -e msr:* --filter="msr!=0xc0000100"
  <SNIP>
   942.177 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: IA32_TSC_DEADLINE, val: 3056931068232)
   942.199 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: IA32_TSC_DEADLINE, val: 3057135655252)
   942.203 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: IA32_TSC_DEADLINE, val: 3056931068222)
   942.231 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: IA32_TSC_DEADLINE, val: 3056998373022)
   942.241 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: IA32_TSC_DEADLINE, val: 3056931068236)
  <SNIP>
  #

Ok, lets filter that too, too noisy:

  # grep TSC_DEADLINE /tmp/build/perf/trace/beauty/generated/x86_arch_MSRs_array.c
	[0x000006E0] = "IA32_TSC_DEADLINE",
  #

  # perf trace -e msr:* --filter="msr!=0xc0000100 && msr!=0x6e0" -a sleep 0.1

One can combine that with filtering pids as well:

Ok, just another form of KVM to emit MSRs :-)

Next step: elliminate those greps by getting the filter expression,
looking for arg names, then for the arrays associated with it to do a
reverse lookup.

Also allow those filters to be associated with strace-like syscall
names.

After that: augment the 'val' arg for 'msr:write_msr' based on the first
arg, 'msr'.

Then, do that with eBPF too, not just with tracepoint filters.

f11b2803bb perf trace: Allow choosing how to augment the tracepoint arguments 
So far we used the libtraceevent printing routines when showing
tracepoint arguments, but since 'perf trace' has a lot of beautifiers
for syscall arguments, and since some of those can be used to augment
tracepoint arguments, add a routine to make use of those beautifiers
and allow the user to choose which one to use.

The default now is to use the same beautifiers used for the strace-like
sys_enter+sys_exit lines, but the user can choose the libtraceevent ones
by either using the:

    perf trace --libtraceevent_print

command line option, or by setting:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [trace]
	tracepoint_beautifiers = libtraceevent

For instance, here are some examples:

  # perf trace -e sched:*switch,*sleep,sched:*wakeup,exit*,sched:*exit sleep 1
       0.000 sched:sched_wakeup(comm: "perf", pid: 5273 (perf), prio: 120, success: 1, target_cpu: 6)
       0.621 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffdd06d1140, rmtp: NULL) ...
       0.628 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm: "sleep", prev_pid: 5273 (sleep), prev_prio: 120, prev_state: 1, next_comm: "swapper/6", next_pid: 0, next_prio: 120)
    1000.879 sched:sched_wakeup(comm: "sleep", pid: 5273 (sleep), prio: 120, success: 1, target_cpu: 6)
       0.621  ... [continued]: nanosleep())          = 0
    1001.026 exit_group(error_code: 0)               = ?
    1001.216 sched:sched_process_exit(comm: "sleep", pid: 5273 (sleep), prio: 120)
  #

And then using libtraceevent, as before:

  # perf trace --libtraceevent_print -e sched:*switch,*sleep,sched:*wakeup,exit*,sched:*exit sleep 1
       0.000 sched:sched_wakeup(comm=perf pid=5288 prio=120 target_cpu=001)
       0.739 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffeba6c2f40, rmtp: NULL) ...
       0.747 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm=sleep prev_pid=5288 prev_prio=120 prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/1 next_pid=0 next_prio=120)
    1000.902 sched:sched_wakeup(comm=sleep pid=5288 prio=120 target_cpu=001)
       0.739  ... [continued]: nanosleep())          = 0
    1001.012 exit_group(error_code: 0)               = ?
  #

The new default allocates an array of 'struct syscall_arg_fmt' for the
tracepoint arguments and, just like with syscall arguments, tries to
find suitable syscall_arg__scnprintf_NAME() routines to augment those
tracepoint arguments based on their type (as in the tracefs "format"
file), or even in their name + type, for instance arguntents with names
ending in "fd" with type "int" get the fd scnprintf beautifier attached,
etc.

Soon this will take advantage of the kernel BTF information to augment
enumerations based on the tracefs "format" type info.

2657983b4c perf docs: Correct and clarify jitdump spec 
Specification claims latest version of jitdump file format is 2. Current
jit dump reading code treats 1 as the latest version.

Correct spec to match code.

The original language made it unclear the value to be written in the
magic field.

Revise language that the writer always writes the same value. Specify
that the reader uses the value to detect endian mismatches.

d586ac10ce perf docs: Allow man page date to be specified 
With this change if a perf_date parameter is provided to asciidoc then
it will override the default date written to the man page metadata.

Without this change, or if the perf_date isn't specified, then the
current date is written to the metadata.

Having this parameter allows the metadata to be constant if builds
happen on different dates.

The name of the parameter is intended to be consistent with the existing
perf_version parameter.

ef4b1a539f perf report: Add --switch-on/--switch-off events 
Since 'perf top' shares the histogram browser with 'perf report', then
the same explanation in the previous cset applies.

An additional example uses a pair of SDT events available for systemtap:

  # perf probe --exec=/usr/bin/stap '%*:*'
  Added new events:
    sdt_stap:benchmark__thread__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:benchmark   (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:benchmark__thread__end (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass6__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass6__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass5__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass5__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass0__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass0__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass1a__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass1b__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass1__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass2__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass2__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass3__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass3__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass4__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:pass4__end  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:benchmark__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:benchmark__end (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:cache__get  (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:cache__clean (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:cache__add__module (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:cache__add__source (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:stap_system__complete (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:stap_system__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:stap_system__spawn (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:stap_system__fork (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:intern_string (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:client__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
    sdt_stap:client__end (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

  	perf record -e sdt_stap:client__end -aR sleep 1

  #

From these we're use the two below to run systemtap's test suite:

  # perf record -e sdt_stap:pass2__*,cycles:P make installcheck > /dev/null
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 8 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.691 MB perf.data (39638 samples) ]

2f53ae347f perf top: Add --switch-on/--switch-off events 
Just like 'perf trace' and 'perf script', should be useful for instance
to only consider samples after the initialization phase of some
workload.

The man page has some examples and considerations about its current
interface, that still doesn't handle the on/off events in a special way,
behaving just like when multiple events are specified, i.e.:

- In non-group mode (when the event list is not enclosed in {}) show a
  a menu to allow choosing which event the user wants to see in the
  histograms browser

- In group mode, be it using {} or asking for --group, show one column
  per event.

Try for instance:

  # perf top -e '{cycles,instructions,probe:icmp_rcv}' --switch-on=probe:icmp_rcv

Replace probe:icmp_rcv, that I put in place using:

  # perf probe icmp_rcv:59

To hit when broadcast packets arrive, with a probe installed after an
initialization phase is over or after some other point of interest, some
garbage collection, etc, and also use --switch-off, for instance, on a
probe installed after said garbage collection is over.

f90a24171a perf script: Allow specifying event to switch on processing of other events 
Sometime we want to only consider events after something happens, so
allow discarding events till such events is found, e.g.:

Record all scheduler tracepoints and the sys_enter_nanosleep syscall
event for the 'sleep 1' workload:

  # perf record -e sched:*,syscalls:sys_enter_nanosleep sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 31 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.032 MB perf.data (10 samples) ]
  #

So we have these events in the generated perf data file:

  # perf evlist
  sched:sched_kthread_stop
  sched:sched_kthread_stop_ret
  sched:sched_waking
  sched:sched_wakeup
  sched:sched_wakeup_new
  sched:sched_switch
  sched:sched_migrate_task
  sched:sched_process_free
  sched:sched_process_exit
  sched:sched_wait_task
  sched:sched_process_wait
  sched:sched_process_fork
  sched:sched_process_exec
  sched:sched_stat_wait
  sched:sched_stat_sleep
  sched:sched_stat_iowait
  sched:sched_stat_blocked
  sched:sched_stat_runtime
  sched:sched_pi_setprio
  sched:sched_move_numa
  sched:sched_stick_numa
  sched:sched_swap_numa
  sched:sched_wake_idle_without_ipi
  syscalls:sys_enter_nanosleep
  # Tip: use 'perf evlist --trace-fields' to show fields for tracepoint events
  #

Then show all of the events that actually took place in this 'perf record' session:

  # perf script
          :13637 13637 [002] 108237.581529:            sched:sched_waking: comm=perf pid=13638 prio=120 target_cpu=001

           sleep 13638 [001] 108237.581992:      sched:sched_process_exec: filename=/usr/bin/sleep pid=13638 old_pid=13638

Expose the aux_output attribute flag to the user to configure, by adding a
config term 'aux-output'. For events that support it, selection of
'aux-output' causes the generation of AUX records instead of event records.
This requires that an AUX area event is also provided.

ce7b0e426e perf record: Add an option to take an AUX snapshot on exit 
It is sometimes useful to generate a snapshot when perf record exits;
I've been using a wrapper script around the workload that would do a
killall -USR2 perf when the workload exits.

This patch makes it easier and also works when perf record is attached
to a pre-existing task. A new snapshot option 'e' can be specified in
-S to enable this behavior:

root@elsewhere:~# perf record -e intel_pt// -Se sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.085 MB perf.data ]

db5742b684 perf stat: Support per-die aggregation 
It is useful to aggregate counts per die. E.g. Uncore becomes die-scope
on Xeon Cascade Lake-AP.

Introduce a new option "--per-die" to support per-die aggregation.

The global id for each core has been changed to socket + die id + core
id. The global id for each die is socket + die id.

Add die information for per-core aggregation. The output of per-core
aggregation will be changed from "S0-C0" to "S0-D0-C0". Any scripts
which rely on the output format of per-core aggregation probably be
broken.

For 'perf stat record/report', there is no die information when
processing the old perf.data. The per-die result will be the same as
per-socket.

Committer notes:

Renamed 'die' variable to 'die_id' to fix the build in some systems:

  cc1: warnings being treated as errors
  builtin-stat.c: In function 'perf_env__get_die':

acae8b36cd perf header: Add die information in CPU topology 
With the new CPUID.1F, a new level type of CPU topology, 'die', is
introduced. The 'die' information in CPU topology should be added in
perf header.

To be compatible with old perf.data, the patch checks the section size
before reading the die information. The new info is added at the end of
the cpu_topology section, the old perf tool ignores the extra data.  It
never reads data crossing the section boundary.

The new perf tool with the patch can be used on legacy kernel. Add a new
function has_die_topology() to check if die topology information is
supported by kernel. The function only check X86 and CPU 0. Assuming
other CPUs have same topology.

Use similar method for core and socket to support die id and sibling
dies string.

53651b28cf perf record: Add support to collect callchains from kernel or user space only 
One can just record callchains in the kernel or user space with this new
options.

We can use it together with "--all-kernel" options.

This two options is used just like print_stack(sys) or print_ustack(usr)
for systemtap.

Shown below is the usage of this new option combined with "--all-kernel"
options:

1. Configure all used events to run in kernel space and just collect
   kernel callchains.

  $ perf record -a -g --all-kernel --kernel-callchains

2. Configure all used events to run in kernel space and just collect
   user callchains.

  $ perf record -a -g --all-kernel --user-callchains

Committer notes:

Improved documentation to state that asking for kernel callchains really
is asking for excluding user callchains, and vice versa.

Further mentioned that using both won't get both, but nothing, as both
will be excluded.

Note, the IPC values are low due to page faults at the beginning of

1e032f7cfa perf-probe: Add user memory access attribute support 
Add user memory access attribute for kprobe event arguments.
If a given 'local variable' is in user-space, User can
specify memory access method by '@user' suffix. This is
not only for string but also for data structure.

If we access a field of data structure in user memory from
kernel on some arch, it will fail. e.g.

 perf probe -a "sched_setscheduler param->sched_priority"

This will fail to access the "param->sched_priority" because
the param is __user pointer. Instead, we can now specify
@user suffix for such argument.

 perf probe -a "sched_setscheduler param->sched_priority@user"

Note that kernel memory access with "@user" must always fail
on any arch.

4fc4d8dfa0 perf stat: Support 'percore' event qualifier 
With this patch, we can use the 'percore' event qualifier in perf-stat.

  root@skl:/tmp# perf stat -e cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/,cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ -a -A -I1000
    1.000773050 S0-C0   98,352,832 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/  (50.01%)
    1.000773050 S0-C1  103,763,057 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/  (50.02%)
    1.000773050 S0-C2  196,776,995 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/  (50.02%)
    1.000773050 S0-C3  176,493,779 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/  (50.02%)
    1.000773050 CPU0    47,699,641 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/            (50.02%)
    1.000773050 CPU1    49,052,451 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/            (49.98%)
    1.000773050 CPU2   102,771,422 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/            (49.98%)
    1.000773050 CPU3   100,784,662 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/            (49.98%)
    1.000773050 CPU4    43,171,342 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/            (49.98%)
    1.000773050 CPU5    54,152,158 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/            (49.98%)
    1.000773050 CPU6    93,618,410 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/            (49.98%)
    1.000773050 CPU7    74,477,589 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/            (49.99%)

In this example, we count the event 'ref-cycles' per-core and per-CPU in
one perf stat command-line. From the output, we can see:

  S0-C0 = CPU0 + CPU4
  S0-C1 = CPU1 + CPU5
  S0-C2 = CPU2 + CPU6
  S0-C3 = CPU3 + CPU7

So the result is expected (tiny difference is ignored).

Note that, the 'percore' event qualifier needs to use with option '-A'.

064b4e82aa perf tools: Add a 'percore' event qualifier 
Add a 'percore' event qualifier, like cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/,
that sums up the event counts for both hardware threads in a core.

We can already do this with --per-core, but it's often useful to do
this together with other metrics that are collected per hardware thread.
So we need to support this per-core counting on a event level.

This can be implemented in only the user tool, no kernel support needed.

 v4:
 ---
 1. Add Arnaldo's patch which updates the documentation for
    this new qualifier.
 2. Rebase to latest perf/core branch

 v3:
 ---
 Simplify the code according to Jiri's comments.
 Before:
   "return term->val.percore ? true : false;"
 Now:
   "return term->val.percore;"

 v2:
 ---
 Change the qualifier name from 'coresum' to 'percore' according to
 comments from Jiri and Andi.
