6db175c733 perf bench: Remove the prefaulting complication from 'perf bench mem mem*'
So 'perf bench mem memcpy/memset' has elaborate code to measure
memcpy()/memset() performance both with freshly allocated buffers (which
includes initial page fault overhead) and with preallocated buffers.

But the thing is, the resulting bandwidth results are mostly
meaningless, because page faults dominate so much of the cost.

It might make sense to measure cache cold vs. cache hot performance, but
the code does not do this.

So remove this complication, and always prefault the ranges before using
them.

9b2fa7f3e7 perf bench: Rename 'mem-memcpy.c' => 'mem-functions.c'
So mem-memcpy.c started out as a simple memcpy() benchmark, then it grew
memset() functionality and now I plan to add string copy benchmarks as
well.

This makes the file name a misnomer: rename it to the more generic
mem-functions.c name.

2761974156 perf bench: Default to all routines in 'perf bench mem'
So few people know that the --routine option to 'perf bench memcpy/memset'
exists, and would not know that it's capable of testing the kernel's
memcpy/memset implementations.

Furthermore, 'perf bench mem all' will not run all routines:

	vega:~> perf bench mem all
	# Running mem/memcpy benchmark...
	Routine default (Default memcpy() provided by glibc)
	# Copying 1MB Bytes ...

	     894.454383 MB/Sec
	       3.844734 GB/Sec (with prefault)

	# Running mem/memset benchmark...
	Routine default (Default memset() provided by glibc)
	# Copying 1MB Bytes ...

	       1.220703 GB/Sec
	       9.042245 GB/Sec (with prefault)

Because misleadingly the 'all' refers to 'all sub-benchmarks', not 'all
sub-benchmarks and routines'.

Fix all this by making the memcpy/memset routine to default to 'all',
which results in all the benchmarks being run:

	triton:~> perf bench mem all
	# Running mem/memcpy benchmark...
	Routine default (Default memcpy() provided by glibc)
	# Copying 1MB Bytes ...

	       4.379204 GB/Sec (with prefault)

	       1.788576 GB/Sec

2690c73093 perf test: Suppress libtraceevent warnings
Currently libtraceevent emits warning on unsupported event formats.
However it'd be better to see them only -v option is given.  To do that,
it needs to override the warning() function which is used in the
libtracevent.  Thus add set_warning_routine() same as set_die_routine()
and check the verbose flag in our warning routine.

Before:
  # perf test 5
   5: parse events tests                                       :
    Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_get_page] bad op token {
    Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_sync_page] bad op token {
    Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_unsync_page] bad op token {
    Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page] bad op token {
    Warning: [kvmmmu:fast_page_fault] function is_writable_pte not defined
    ...
   Ok

After:
  # perf test 5
   5: parse events tests                                       : Ok

8719138318 perf test: Silence tracepoint event failures
Currently, when 'perf test' is run by a normal user, it'll fail to
access tracepoint events.  The output becomes somewhat messy because it
tries to be nice with long error messages and hints.

IMHO this is not needed for 'perf test' by default and AFAIK 'perf test'
uses pr_debug() rather than pr_err() for such messages so that one can
use -v option to see further details on failed testcases if needed.

Before:
  $ perf test

He Kuang the new fixdep tool breaks cross compiling. The reason is it

c95f343211 tools include: Fix strict-aliasing rules breakage
Vinson reported build breakage with gcc 4.4 due to strict-aliasing.

   CC       util/annotate.o
 cc1: warnings being treated as errors
 util/annotate.c: In function ‘disasm__purge’:
 linux-next/tools/include/linux/compiler.h:66: error: dereferencing
 pointer ‘res.41’ does break strict-aliasing rules

The reason is READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE code we took from kernel sources.  They
intentionaly break aliasing rules. While this is ok for kernel because it's
built with -fno-strict-aliasing, it breaks perf which is build with
-Wstrict-aliasing=3.

Using extra __may_alias__ type to allow aliasing in this case.

dc38218e8b perf symbols: Try the .debug/ DSO cache as a last resort

9fb4765451 perf tools: Fix build break on powerpc due to sample_reg_masks
perf_regs.c does not get built on Powerpc as CONFIG_PERF_REGS is false.
So the weak definition for 'sample_regs_masks' doesn't get picked up.

Adding perf_regs.o to util/Build unconditionally, exposes a redefinition
error for 'perf_reg_value()' function (due to the static inline version
in util/perf_regs.h). So use #ifdef HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT' around that
function.

c6c3c02dea perf hists browser: Implement horizontal scrolling
Do it using the recently introduced ui_brower scrolling mode, setting
ui_browser.columns to the number of sort columns and then, when
rendering each line, skipping as many initial columns as the user
pressed the right arrow.

As the user presses the left arrow, the ui_browser code will remove the
scrolling counter and the left scrolling takes place.

The right arrow key was an alias for ENTER, so people used to press it
may get a bit annoyed at first, sorry! Ditto for ESC and the left key.

Callchains can be left as is or we can, when rendering the Symbol
column, store the at what position on the screen it is and then
using ui_browser__gotorc() to print it from there, i.e. the callchain
would move around with the symbol.

Leaving it as is, i.e. at a fixed position, close to the left, saves
precious screen real state for it, so I'm inclined to leave it as is
now.

faae6f690e perf ui browser: Optional horizontal scrolling key binding
If the classes derived from ui_browser want to do some sort of
horizontal scrolling, they have just to set ui_browser->columns to
the number of columns available.

Those columns can be the number of characters on the screen, if what is
desired is to scroll character by character, or the number of columns in
a spreadsheet like table.

This is what the hist_browser will do, skipping ui_browser->horiz_scroll
columns when rendering each of its lines.

035827e9f2 perf tests: Add Intel CQM test
Peter reports that it's possible to trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE() in the
Intel CQM code by combining a hardware event and an Intel CQM
(software) event into a group. Unfortunately, the perf tools are not
able to create this bundle and we need to manually construct a test
case.

For posterity, record Peter's proof of concept test case in tools/perf
so that it presents a model for how we can perform architecture
specific tests, or "arch tests", in perf in the future.

The particular issue triggered in the test case is that when the
counter for the hardware event overflows and triggers a PMI we'll read
both the hardware event and the software event counters.
Unfortunately, for CQM that involves performing an IPI to read the CQM
event counters on all sockets, which in NMI context triggers the
WARN_ON_ONCE().

28e6db205b perf tools: Add support for sorting on the iaddr
Sorting on 'symbol' gives to broad a resolution as it can cover a range
of IP address.  Use the iaddr instead to get proper sorting on IP
addresses.  Need to use the 'mem_sort' feature of perf record.

New sort option is: symbol_iaddr, header label is 'Code Symbol'.

  $ perf mem report --stdio -F +symbol_iaddr

19afd10410 perf stat: Reduce min --interval-print to 10ms
The --interval-print parameter was limited to 100ms. However, for
example, 10ms is required to do sophisticated bandwidth analysis using
uncore events.

The test shows that the overhead of the system-wide uncore monitoring
with 10ms interval is only ~2%. So this patch reduces the minimal
interval-print allowd to 10ms.

But 10ms may not work well for all cases. For example, when the
cpus/threads number is very large, for system-wide core event monitoring
the overhead could be high.

To handle this issue, a warning will be displayed when the
interval-print is set between 10ms to 100ms. So users can make a
decision according to their specific cases.

 # perf stat -e uncore_imc_1/cas_count_read/ -a --interval-print 10 -- sleep 1

 print interval < 100ms. The overhead percentage could be high in some
 cases. Please proceed with caution.

9f065194e2 perf record: Change 'record.samples' type to unsigned long long
When run "perf record -e", the number of samples showed up is wrong on some
32 bit systems, i.e. powerpc and arm.

For example, run the below commands on 32 bit powerpc:

  perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 malloc
  perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -a ls perf.data
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.036 MB perf.data (13829241621624967218 samples) ]

Actually, "perf script" just shows 21 samples. The number of samples is also
absurd since samples is long type, but it is printed as PRIu64.

Build test ran on x86-64, x86, aarch64, arm, mips, ppc and ppc64.

1a8ac29cbf perf probe: Allow probing on kmodules without dwarf
Allow probing on kernel modules when 'perf' is built without debuginfo
support.

Currently perf-probe --module requires linking with libdw, but this
doesn't make sense.

E.g.
  ----
  # make NO_DWARF=1
  # ./perf probe -m pcspkr pcspkr_event%return
    Error: unknown switch `m'
  ----

With this patch
  ----
  # ./perf probe -m pcspkr pcspkr_event%return
  Added new event:
    probe:pcspkr_event   (on pcspkr_event%return in pcspkr)

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

          perf record -e probe:pcspkr_event -aR sleep 1

fa52ceabc2 perf list: Honour 'event_glob' whem printing selectable PMUs
Some PMUs, like the 'intel_bts' one can be used as an event name, i.e.:

	$ perf record -e intel_bts:// usleep 1

Is a valid event name.

But the code printing such PMUs was not honouring the 'event_glob'
parameter, so the following line was always appearing:

  $ intel_bts//                                        [Kernel PMU event]

208e760745 perf report: Fix a bug on "--call-graph none" option
The patch f9db0d0f1b ("perf callchain: Allow disabling call graphs
per event") added an ability to enable/disable callchain recording per
event.  But it had a problem when the enablement setting is changed at
'perf report' time using -g/--call-graph option.

For example, the following scenario will get a segfault.

  $ perf record -ag sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.500 MB perf.data (2555 samples) ]

  $ perf report -g none
  perf: Segmentation fault
  -------- backtrace --------
  perf[0x53a98a]
  /usr/lib/libc.so.6(+0x335af)[0x7f4e91df95af]

This is because callchain_param.sort() callback was not set but it
tried to call the function as it had the PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN bit.

4b37af5957 perf top: Fix unresolved comm when -s comm is used
The perf top uses 'dso,symbol' sort keys by default so it overlooked a
problem in task's comm resolving.  When the sort key contains 'comm',
some task's comm is not shown properly.  This is because the
perf_top__mmap_read_idx() checks the cpumode value improperly.

The cpumode value of non-sample events are 0 (PERF_RECORD_MISC_CPUMODE_
UNKNOWN) so the events will be ignored by the switch statement.  This patch
allows it for non-sample events.
