The Cortex-A57 and Cortex-A72 both support all ARMv8 recommended events
up to the RC_ST_SPEC (0x91) event with the exception of:
- L1D_CACHE_REFILL_INNER (0x44)
- L1D_CACHE_REFILL_OUTER (0x45)
- L1D_TLB_RD (0x4E)
- L1D_TLB_WR (0x4F)
- L2D_TLB_REFILL_RD (0x5C)
- L2D_TLB_REFILL_WR (0x5D)
- L2D_TLB_RD (0x5E)
- L2D_TLB_WR (0x5F)
- STREX_SPEC (0x6F)
Create an appropriate JSON file for mapping those events and update the
mapfile.csv for matching the Cortex-A57 and Cortex-A72 MIDR to that
file.

Update all the Intel JSON metrics from Ahmad Yasin's TMAM 3.5
for Intel big core from Sandy Bridge to Cascade Lake.
This has many improvements and new metircs
- New TopDownL1_SMT group that provides a per SMT thread version
of --topdown that does not require -a anymore. The drawback is
increased multiplexing though since L1 TopDown does not fit into
4 generic counters anymore.
- Added SMT aware versions of other metrics
- Split SMT aware metrics into separate metrics to avoid
unnecessary event collections
- New metrics for better branch analysis:
Estimated Branch_Mispredict_Costs, Instructions per taken Branch,
Branch Instructions per Taken Branch, etc.
- Instruction mix metrics:
Instructions per load, Instructions per store, Instructions per Branch,
Instructions per Call
- New Cache metrics:
Bandwidth to L1/L2/L3 caches. L1/L2/L3 misses per kilo instructions.
memory level parallelism
- New memory controller metrics:
Normalized memory bandwidth in interval mode, Average memory latency,
Average number of parallel read requests,
- 3DXP persistent memory metrics for Cascade Lake:
3dxp read latency, 3dxp read/write bandwidth
- Some other useful metrics like Instruction Level Parallelism,
- Various other improvements.
Not all metrics are available on all CPUs. Skylake has best coverage.

named L1D_RO_EXCL_WRITES on machine types 3906 and 3907 the long

The perf tools cannot find the proper event list for the Cascadelake
server. Because the Cascadelake server and the Skylake server have the
same CPU model number, which are used by the perf tools to find the
event list.
The stepping for Skylake server is up to 4.
The stepping for Cascadelake server starts from 5.
The stepping can be used to distinguish between them.
The stepping is added in get_cpuid_str().
The stepping information for Skylake server is updated in mapfile.csv.
A x86 specific strcmp_cpuid_cmp() function is added to handle two CPUID
formats in mapfile.csv, "vendor-family-model-stepping" and
"vendor-family-model":
- If a cpuid-regular-expression from the mapfile.csv using the new
stepping format, a cpuid-string generated on the machine must include
stepping. Otherwise, it is a mismatch.
- If the cpuid-regular-expression using the old non-stepping format,
the stepping in the cpuid-string will be ignored.
The script, using environment string "PERF_CPUID" without stepping on
Skylake server, will be broken. If so, users must fix their scripts.

This is the commit that porting the perf for nds32.
1.Raw event:
The raw events start with 'r'.
Usage:
perf stat -e rXYZ ./app
X: the index of performance counter.
YZ: the index(convert to hexdecimal) of events
Example:
'perf stat -e r101 ./app' means the counter 1 will count the instruction
event.
The index of counter and events can be found in
"Andes System Privilege Architecture Version 3 Manual".
Or you can perform the 'perf list' to find the symbolic name of raw events.
2.Perf mmap2:
Fix unexpected perf mmap2() page fault
When the mmap2() called by perf application,
you will encounter such condition:"failed to write."
With return value -EFAULT
This is due to the page fault caused by "reading" buffer
from the mapped legal address region to write to the descriptor.
The page_fault handler will get a VM_FAULT_SIGBUS return value,
which should not happens here.(Due to this is a read request.)
You can refer to kernel/events/core.c:perf_mmap_fault(...)
If "(vmf->pgoff && (vmf->flags & FAULT_FLAG_WRITE))" is evaluated
as true, you will get VM_FAULT_SIGBUS as return value.
However, this is not an write request. The flags which indicated
why the page fault happens is wrong.
Furthermore, NDS32 SPAv3 is not able to detect it is read or write.
It only know either it is instruction fetch or data access.
Therefore, by removing the wrong flag assignment(actually, the hardware
is not able to show the reason), we can fix this bug.
3.Perf multiple events map to same counter.
When there are multiple events map to the same counter, the counter
counts inaccurately. This is because each counter only counts one event
in the same time.
So when there are multiple events map to same counter, they have to take
turns in each context.
There are two solution:
1. Print the error message when multiple events map to the same counter.
But print the error message would let the program hang in loop. The ltp
(linux test program) would be failed when the program hang in loop.
2. Don't print the error message, the ltp would pass. But the user need to
have the knowledge that don't count the events which map to the same
counter, or the user will get the inaccurate results.
We choose method 2 for the solution

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main updates in this cycle were:
- Lots of perf tooling changes too voluminous to list (big perf trace
and perf stat improvements, lots of libtraceevent reorganization,
etc.), so I'll list the authors and refer to the changelog for
details:
Benjamin Peterson, Jérémie Galarneau, Kim Phillips, Peter
Zijlstra, Ravi Bangoria, Sangwon Hong, Sean V Kelley, Steven
Rostedt, Thomas Gleixner, Ding Xiang, Eduardo Habkost, Thomas
Richter, Andi Kleen, Sanskriti Sharma, Adrian Hunter, Tzvetomir
Stoyanov, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Jiri Olsa.
... with the bulk of the changes written by Jiri Olsa, Tzvetomir
Stoyanov and Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
- Continued intel_rdt work with a focus on playing well with perf
events. This also imported some non-perf RDT work due to
dependencies. (Reinette Chatre)
- Implement counter freezing for Arch Perfmon v4 (Skylake and newer).
This allows to speed up the PMI handler by avoiding unnecessary MSR
writes and make it more accurate. (Andi Kleen)
- kprobes cleanups and simplification (Masami Hiramatsu)
- Intel Goldmont PMU updates (Kan Liang)
- ... plus misc other fixes and updates"
* 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (155 commits)
kprobes/x86: Use preempt_enable() in optimized_callback()
x86/intel_rdt: Prevent pseudo-locking from using stale pointers
kprobes, x86/ptrace.h: Make regs_get_kernel_stack_nth() not fault on bad stack
perf/x86/intel: Export mem events only if there's PEBS support
x86/cpu: Drop pointless static qualifier in punit_dev_state_show()
x86/intel_rdt: Fix initial allocation to consider CDP
x86/intel_rdt: CBM overlap should also check for overlap with CDP peer
x86/intel_rdt: Introduce utility to obtain CDP peer
tools lib traceevent, perf tools: Move struct tep_handler definition in a local header file
tools lib traceevent: Separate out tep_strerror() for strerror_r() issues
perf python: More portable way to make CFLAGS work with clang
perf python: Make clang_has_option() work on Python 3
perf tools: Free temporary 'sys' string in read_event_files()
perf tools: Avoid double free in read_event_file()
perf tools: Free 'printk' string in parse_ftrace_printk()
perf tools: Cleanup trace-event-info 'tdata' leak
perf strbuf: Match va_{add,copy} with va_end
perf test: S390 does not support watchpoints in test 22
perf auxtrace: Include missing asm/bitsperlong.h to get BITS_PER_LONG
tools include: Adopt linux/bits.h

Michael reported that he could not stat following event:
$ perf stat -e unc_p_freq_ge_1200mhz_cycles -a -- ls
event syntax error: '..e_1200mhz_cycles'
\___ value too big for format, maximum is 255
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
The event is unwrapped into:
uncore_pcu/event=0xb,filter_band0=1200/
where filter_band0 format says it's one byte only:
# cat uncore_pcu/format/filter_band0
config1:0-7
while JSON files specifies bigger number:
"Filter": "filter_band0=1200",
all the filter_band* formats show 1 byte width:
# cat uncore_pcu/format/filter_band1
config1:8-15
# cat uncore_pcu/format/filter_band2
config1:16-23
# cat uncore_pcu/format/filter_band3
config1:24-31
The reason of the issue is that filter_band* values are supposed to be
in 100Mhz units.. it's stated in the JSON help for the events, like:
filter_band3=XXX, with XXX in 100Mhz units
This patch divides the filter_band* values by 100, plus there's couple
of changes that actually change the number completely, like:
- "Filter": "edge=1,filter_band2=4000",
+ "Filter": "edge=1,filter_band2=30",

Correct the support of detailed/verbose PMU event description by using
the "Unit": keyword in the json files to address event names refering to
the /sys/devices/cpum_[cs]f devices.
