535a265d7f perf tools changes for v6.6:
perf tools maintainership:
 
 - Add git information for perf-tools and perf-tools-next trees/branches to the
   MAINTAINERS file. That is where development now takes place and myself and
   Namhyung Kim have write access, more people to come as we emulate other
   maintainer groups.
 
 perf record:
 
 - Record kernel data maps when 'perf record --data' is used, so that global variables can
   be resolved and used in tools that do data profiling.
 
 perf trace:
 
 - Remove the old, experimental support for BPF events in which a .c file was passed as
   an event: "perf trace -e hello.c" to then get compiled and loaded.
 
   The only known usage for that, that shipped with the kernel as an example for such events,
   augmented the raw_syscalls tracepoints and was converted to a libbpf skeleton, reusing all
   the user space components and the BPF code connected to the syscalls.
 
   In the end just the way to glue the BPF part and the user space type beautifiers changed,
   now being performed by libbpf skeletons.
 
   The next step is to use BTF to do pretty printing of all syscall types, as discussed with
   Alan Maguire and others.
 
   Now, on a perf built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 we get most if not all path/filenames/strings,
   some of the networking data structures, perf_event_attr, etc, i.e. systemwide tracing of
   nanosleep calls and perf_event_open syscalls while 'perf stat' runs 'sleep' for 5 seconds:

 perf annotate:
 
 - Building with binutils' libopcode now is opt-in (BUILD_NONDISTRO=1) for
   licensing reasons, and we missed a build test on tools/perf/tests makefile.
 
   Since we now default to NDEBUG=1, we ended up segfaulting when building with
   BUILD_NONDISTRO=1 because a needed initialization routine was being "error
   checked" via an assert.
 
   Fix it by explicitly checking the result and aborting instead if it fails.
 
   We better back propagate the error, but at least 'perf annotate' on samples
   collected for a BPF program is back working when perf is built with
   BUILD_NONDISTRO=1.
 
 perf report/top:
 
 - Add back TUI hierarchy mode header, that is seen when using 'perf report/top --hierarchy'.
 
 - Fix the number of entries for 'e' key in the TUI that was preventing navigation of
   lines when expanding an entry.
 
 perf report/script:
 
 - Support cross platform register handling, allowing a perf.data file collected
   on one architecture to have registers sampled correctly displayed when
   analysis tools such as 'perf report' and 'perf script' are used on a different
   architecture.
 
 - Fix handling of event attributes in pipe mode, i.e. when one uses:
 
 	perf record -o - | perf report -i -
 
   When no perf.data files are used.
 
 - Handle files generated via pipe mode with a version of perf and then read
   also via pipe mode with a different version of perf, where the event attr
   record may have changed, use the record size field to properly support this
   version mismatch.
 
 perf probe:
 
 - Accessing global variables from uprobes isn't supported, make the error
   message state that instead of stating that some minimal kernel version is
   needed to have that feature. This seems just a tool limitation, the kernel
   probably has all that is needed.
 
 perf tests:
 
 - Fix a reference count related leak in the dlfilter v0 API where the result
   of a thread__find_symbol_fb() is not matched with an addr_location__exit()
   to drop the reference counts of the resolved components (machine, thread, map,
   symbol, etc). Add a dlfilter test to make sure that doesn't regresses.
 
 - Lots of fixes for the 'perf test' written in shell script related to problems
   found with the shellcheck utility.
 
 - Fixes for 'perf test' shell scripts testing features enabled when perf is
   built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1, such as 'perf stat' bpf counters.
 
 - Add perf record sample filtering test, things like the following example, that gets
   implemented as a BPF filter attached to the event:
 
    # perf record -e task-clock -c 10000 --filter 'ip < 0xffffffff00000000'
 
 - Improve the way the task_analyzer test checks if libtraceevent is linked,
   using 'perf version --build-options' instead of the more expensinve
   'perf record -e "sched:sched_switch"'.
 
 - Add support for riscv in the mmap-basic test. (This went as well via the RiscV tree, same contents).
 
 libperf:
 
 - Implement riscv mmap support (This went as well via the RiscV tree, same contents).
 
 perf script:
 
 - New tool that converts perf.data files to the firefox profiler format so that one can use
   the visualizer at https://profiler.firefox.com/. Done by Anup Sharma as part of this year's
   Google Summer of Code.
 
   One can generate the output and upload it to the web interface but Anup also automated
   everything:
 
      perf script gecko -F 99 -a sleep 60
 
 - Support syscall name parsing on arm64.
 
 - Print "cgroup" field on the same line as "comm".
 
 perf bench:
 
 - Add new 'uprobe' benchmark to measure the overhead of uprobes with/without
   BPF programs attached to it.
 
 - breakpoints are not available on power9, skip that test.
 
 perf stat:
 
 - Add #num_cpus_online literal to be used in 'perf stat' metrics, and add this extra
   'perf test' check that exemplifies its purpose:
 
 	TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus_online",
                        expr__parse(&num_cpus_online, ctx, "#num_cpus_online") == 0);
 	TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus", expr__parse(&num_cpus, ctx, "#num_cpus") == 0);
 	TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus >= #num_cpus_online", num_cpus >= num_cpus_online);
 
 Miscellaneous:
 
 - Improve tool startup time by lazily reading PMU, JSON, sysfs data.
 
 - Improve error reporting in the parsing of events, passing YYLTYPE to error routines,
   so that the output can show were the parsing error was found.
 
 - Add 'perf test' entries to check the parsing of events improvements.
 
 - Fix various leak for things detected by -fsanitize=address, mostly things that would
   be freed at tool exit, including:
 
   - Free evsel->filter on the destructor.
 
   - Allow tools to register a thread->priv destructor and use it in 'perf trace'.
 
   - Free evsel->priv in 'perf trace'.
 
   - Free string returned by synthesize_perf_probe_point() when the caller fails
     to do all it needs.
 
 - Adjust various compiler options to not consider errors some warnings when
   building with broken headers found in things like python, flex, bison, as we
   otherwise build with -Werror. Some for gcc, some for clang, some for some
   specific version of those, some for some specific version of flex or bison, or
   some specific combination of these components, bah.
 
 - Allow customization of clang options for BPF target, this helps building on
   gentoo where there are other oddities where BPF targets gets passed some compiler
   options intended for the native build, so building with WERROR=0 helps while
   these oddities are fixed.
 
 - Dont pass ERR_PTR() values to perf_session__delete() in 'perf top' and 'perf lock',
   fixing some segfaults when handling some odd failures.
 
 - Add LTO build option.
 
 - Fix format of unordered lists in the perf docs (tools/perf/Documentation).
 
 - Overhaul the bison files, using constructs such as YYNOMEM.
 
 - Remove unused tokens from the bison .y files.
 
 - Add more comments to various structs.
 
 - A few LoongArch enablement patches.
 
 Vendor events (JSON):
 
 - Add JSON metrics for Yitian 710 DDR (aarch64). Things like:
 
 	EventName, BriefDescription
 	visible_window_limit_reached_rd, "At least one entry in read queue reaches the visible window limit.",
 	visible_window_limit_reached_wr, "At least one entry in write queue reaches the visible window limit.",
 	op_is_dqsosc_mpc	       , "A DQS Oscillator MPC command to DRAM.",
 	op_is_dqsosc_mrr	       , "A DQS Oscillator MRR command to DRAM.",
 	op_is_tcr_mrr		       , "A Temperature Compensated Refresh(TCR) MRR command to DRAM.",
 
 - Add AmpereOne metrics (aarch64).
 
 - Update N2 and V2 metrics (aarch64) and events using Arm telemetry repo.
 
 - Update scale units and descriptions of common topdown metrics on aarch64. Things like:
 
   - "MetricExpr": "stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles)",
   - "BriefDescription": "Frontend bound L1 topdown metric",
   + "MetricExpr": "100 * (stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles))",
   + "BriefDescription": "This metric is the percentage of total slots that were stalled due to resource constraints in the frontend of the processor.",
 
 - Update events for intel: meteorlake to 1.04, sapphirerapids to 1.15, Icelake+ metric constraints.
 
 - Update files for the power10 platform.

     report/top --hierarchy'.

   - Fix the number of entries for 'e' key in the TUI that was
     preventing navigation of lines when expanding an entry.

   - Fix handling of event attributes in pipe mode, i.e. when one uses:

     When no perf.data files are used.

   - Handle files generated via pipe mode with a version of perf and
     then read also via pipe mode with a different version of perf,
     where the event attr record may have changed, use the record size
     field to properly support this version mismatch.

     result of a thread__find_symbol_fb() is not matched with an
     addr_location__exit() to drop the reference counts of the resolved
     components (machine, thread, map, symbol, etc). Add a dlfilter test
     to make sure that doesn't regresses.

   - Fixes for 'perf test' shell scripts testing features enabled when
     perf is built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1, such as 'perf stat' bpf
     counters.

   - Add perf record sample filtering test, things like the following

     event:

       # perf record -e task-clock -c 10000 --filter 'ip < 0xffffffff00000000'

   - Improve the way the task_analyzer test checks if libtraceevent is
     linked, using 'perf version --build-options' instead of the more
     expensinve 'perf record -e "sched:sched_switch"'.

   - Add support for riscv in the mmap-basic test. (This went as well
     via the RiscV tree, same contents).

  libperf:

   - Implement riscv mmap support (This went as well via the RiscV tree,
     same contents).

   - New tool that converts perf.data files to the firefox profiler
     format so that one can use the visualizer at

   - Add new 'uprobe' benchmark to measure the overhead of uprobes
     with/without BPF programs attached to it.

   - breakpoints are not available on power9, skip that test.

  perf stat:

   - Add #num_cpus_online literal to be used in 'perf stat' metrics, and
     add this extra 'perf test' check that exemplifies its purpose:

  	TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus_online",
                         expr__parse(&num_cpus_online, ctx, "#num_cpus_online") == 0);

  	TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus >= #num_cpus_online", num_cpus >= num_cpus_online);

  Miscellaneous:

   - Improve tool startup time by lazily reading PMU, JSON, sysfs data.

   - Improve error reporting in the parsing of events, passing YYLTYPE
     to error routines, so that the output can show were the parsing
     error was found.

   - Add 'perf test' entries to check the parsing of events
     improvements.

   - Fix various leak for things detected by -fsanitize=address, mostly
     things that would be freed at tool exit, including:

       - Free evsel->filter on the destructor.

       - Allow tools to register a thread->priv destructor and use it in
         'perf trace'.

       - Free evsel->priv in 'perf trace'.

       - Free string returned by synthesize_perf_probe_point() when the
         caller fails to do all it needs.

   - Adjust various compiler options to not consider errors some
     warnings when building with broken headers found in things like
     python, flex, bison, as we otherwise build with -Werror. Some for
     gcc, some for clang, some for some specific version of those, some
     for some specific version of flex or bison, or some specific
     combination of these components, bah.

   - Allow customization of clang options for BPF target, this helps
     building on gentoo where there are other oddities where BPF targets
     gets passed some compiler options intended for the native build, so
     building with WERROR=0 helps while these oddities are fixed.

   - Dont pass ERR_PTR() values to perf_session__delete() in 'perf top'
     and 'perf lock', fixing some segfaults when handling some odd
     failures.

   - Add LTO build option.

   - Fix format of unordered lists in the perf docs
     (tools/perf/Documentation)

   - Overhaul the bison files, using constructs such as YYNOMEM.

   - Remove unused tokens from the bison .y files.

   - Add more comments to various structs.

   - A few LoongArch enablement patches.

  Vendor events (JSON):

   - Add JSON metrics for Yitian 710 DDR (aarch64). Things like:

  	EventName, BriefDescription
  	visible_window_limit_reached_rd, "At least one entry in read queue reaches the visible window limit.",
  	visible_window_limit_reached_wr, "At least one entry in write queue reaches the visible window limit.",
  	op_is_dqsosc_mpc	       , "A DQS Oscillator MPC command to DRAM.",
  	op_is_dqsosc_mrr	       , "A DQS Oscillator MRR command to DRAM.",
  	op_is_tcr_mrr		       , "A Temperature Compensated Refresh(TCR) MRR command to DRAM.",

   - Add AmpereOne metrics (aarch64).

   - Update N2 and V2 metrics (aarch64) and events using Arm telemetry
     repo.

   - Update scale units and descriptions of common topdown metrics on
     aarch64. Things like:
       - "MetricExpr": "stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles)",
       - "BriefDescription": "Frontend bound L1 topdown metric",
       + "MetricExpr": "100 * (stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles))",
       + "BriefDescription": "This metric is the percentage of total slots that were stalled due to resource constraints in the frontend of the processor.",

   - Update events for intel: meteorlake to 1.04, sapphirerapids to
     1.15, Icelake+ metric constraints.

   - Update files for the power10 platform"

Noticed while developing 'perf bench uprobe', but the use of %' predates
that, for instance 'perf bench syscall' uses it.

ece7f7c050 perf bench syscall: Add fork syscall benchmark
This is a follow up patch for the execve bench which is actually
fork + execve, it makes sense to add the fork syscall benchmark
to compare the execve part precisely.

Some archs have no __NR_fork definition which is used only as a
check condition to call test_fork(), let us just define it as -1
to avoid build error.

68a6772f11 perf bench: Add breakpoint benchmarks
Add 2 benchmarks:

1. Performance of thread creation/exiting in presence of breakpoints.
2. Performance of breakpoint modification in presence of threads.

The benchmarks capture use cases that we are interested in:
using inheritable breakpoints in large highly-threaded applications.

The benchmarks show significant slowdown imposed by breakpoints
(even when they don't fire).

Testing on Intel 8173M with 112 HW threads show:

  perf bench --repeat=56 breakpoint thread --breakpoints=0 --parallelism=56 --threads=20
        78.675000 usecs/op
  perf bench --repeat=56 breakpoint thread --breakpoints=4 --parallelism=56 --threads=20
     12967.135714 usecs/op

That's 165x slowdown due to presence of the breakpoints.

  perf bench --repeat=20000 breakpoint enable --passive=0 --active=0
         1.433250 usecs/op
  perf bench --repeat=20000 breakpoint enable --passive=224 --active=0
       585.318400 usecs/op
  perf bench --repeat=20000 breakpoint enable --passive=0 --active=111
       635.953000 usecs/op

That's 408x and 444x slowdown due to presence of threads.

Profiles show some overhead in toggle_bp_slot,
but also very high contention:

    90.83%  breakpoint-thre  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] osq_lock
     4.69%  breakpoint-thre  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] mutex_spin_on_owner

f0a29c9647 perf bench: Use unbuffered output when pipe/tee'ing to a file
The output of 'perf bench' gets buffered when I pipe it to a file or to
tee, in such a way that I can see it only at the end.

E.g.

  $ perf bench internals synthesize -t
  < output comes out fine after each test run >

  $ perf bench internals synthesize -t | tee file.txt
  < output comes out only at the end of all tests >

This patch resolves this issue for 'bench' and 'test' subcommands.

See, also:

  $ perf bench mem all | tee file.txt
  $ perf bench sched all | tee file.txt
  $ perf bench internals all -t | tee file.txt
  $ perf bench internals all | tee file.txt

Committer testing:

It really gets staggered, i.e. outputs in bursts, when the buffer fills
up and has to be drained to make up space for more output.

4241eabf59 perf bench: Add benchmark for evlist open/close operations
This new benchmark finds the total time that is taken to open, mmap,
enable, disable, munmap, close an evlist (time taken for new,
create_maps, config, delete is not counted in).

The evlist can be configured as in perf-record using the
-a,-C,-e,-u,--per-thread,-t,-p options.

The events can be duplicated in the evlist to quickly test performance
with many events using the -n options.

Furthermore, also the number of iterations used to calculate the
statistics is customizable.

Examples:
- Open one dummy event system-wide:

  $ sudo ./perf bench internals evlist-open-close
    Number of cpus:       4
    Number of threads:    1
    Number of events:     1 (4 fds)
    Number of iterations: 100
    Average open-close took: 613.870 usec (+- 32.852 usec)

- Open the group '{cs,cycles}' on CPU 0

  $ sudo ./perf bench internals evlist-open-close -e '{cs,cycles}' -C 0
    Number of cpus:       1
    Number of threads:    1
    Number of events:     2 (2 fds)
    Number of iterations: 100
    Average open-close took: 8503.220 usec (+- 252.652 usec)

- Open 10 'cycles' events for user 0, calculate average over 100 runs

  $ sudo ./perf bench internals evlist-open-close -e cycles -n 10 -u 0 -i 100
    Number of cpus:       4
    Number of threads:    328

0bf02a0d80 perf bench: Add build-id injection benchmark
Sometimes I can see that 'perf record' piped with 'perf inject' take a
long time processing build-ids.

So introduce a inject-build-id benchmark to the internals benchmark
suite to measure its overhead regularly.

It runs the 'perf inject' command internally and feeds the given number
of synthesized events (MMAP2 + SAMPLE basically).

  Usage: perf bench internals inject-build-id <options>

    -i, --iterations <n>  Number of iterations used to compute average (default: 100)
    -m, --nr-mmaps <n>    Number of mmap events for each iteration (default: 100)
    -n, --nr-samples <n>  Number of sample events per mmap event (default: 100)
    -v, --verbose         be more verbose (show iteration count, DSO name, etc)

By default, it measures average processing time of 100 MMAP2 events
and 10000 SAMPLE events.  Below is a result on my laptop.

7c43b0c1d4 perf bench: Add benchmark of find_next_bit
for_each_set_bit, or similar functions like for_each_cpu, may be hot
within the kernel. If many bits were set then one could imagine on Intel
a "bt" instruction with every bit may be faster than the function call
and word length find_next_bit logic. Add a benchmark to measure this.

This benchmark on AMD rome and Intel skylakex shows "bt" is not a good
option except for very small bitmaps.

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().

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

121dd9ea01 perf bench: Add epoll parallel epoll_wait benchmark
This program benchmarks concurrent epoll_wait(2) for file descriptors
that are monitored with with EPOLLIN along various semantics, by a
single epoll instance. Such conditions can be found when using
single/combined or multiple queuing when load balancing.

Each thread has a number of private, nonblocking file descriptors,
referred to as fdmap. A writer thread will constantly be writing to the
fdmaps of all threads, minimizing each threads's chances of epoll_wait
not finding any ready read events and blocking as this is not what we
want to stress. Full details in the start of the C file.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

b0ad8ea664 perf tools: Remove unused 'prefix' from builtin functions
We got it from the git sources but never used it for anything, with the
place where this would be somehow used remaining:

  static int run_builtin(struct cmd_struct *p, int argc, const char **argv)
  {
	prefix = NULL;
	if (p->option & RUN_SETUP)
		prefix = NULL; /* setup_perf_directory(); */

Ditch it.

aa254af25c perf bench: Run benchmarks, don't test them
So right now we output this text:

        memset: Benchmark for memset() functions
           all: Test all memory access benchmarks

But the right verb to use with benchmarks is to 'run' them, not 'test'
them.

So change this (and all similar texts) to:

        memset: Benchmark for memset() functions
           all: Run all memory access benchmarks

d2f3f5d2e9 perf bench futex: Add lock_pi stresser
Allows a way of measuring low level kernel implementation of FUTEX_LOCK_PI and
FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI.

The program comes in two flavors:

(i) single futex (default), all threads contend on the same uaddr.  For the
sake of the benchmark, we call into kernel space even when the lock is
uncontended.  The kernel will set it to TID, any waters that come in and
contend for the pi futex will be handled respectively by the kernel.

(ii) -M option for multiple futexes, each thread deals with its own futex. This
is a trivial scenario and only measures kernel handling of 0->TID transition.

d65817b4e7 perf bench futex: Support parallel waker threads
The futex-wake benchmark only measures wakeups done within a single
process. While this has value in its own, it does not really generate
any hb->lock contention.

A new benchmark 'wake-parallel' is added, by extending the futex-wake
code such that we can measure parallel waker threads. The program output
shows the avg per-thread latency in order to complete its share of
wakeups:

Run summary [PID 13474]: blocking on 512 threads (at [private] futex 0xa88668), 8 threads waking up 64 at a time.

[Run 1]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.6230 ms (+-15.31%)
[Run 2]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.5175 ms (+-29.95%)
[Run 3]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.7578 ms (+-18.03%)
[Run 4]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.8944 ms (+-12.54%)
[Run 5]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 1.1204 ms (+-23.85%)
Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.7826 ms (+-9.91%)

Naturally, different combinations of numbers of blocking and waker
threads will exhibit different information.

b6f0629a94 perf bench: Add --repeat option
There are a number of benchmarks that do single runs and as a result
does not really help users gain a general idea of how the workload
performs. So the user must either manually do multiple runs or just use
single bogus results.

This option will enable users to specify the amount of runs (arbitrarily
defaulted to 10, to use the existing benchmarks default) through the
'--repeat' option.  Add it to perf-bench instead of implementing it
always in each specific benchmark.

a043971141 perf bench: Add futex-hash microbenchmark
Introduce futexes to perf-bench and add a program that stresses and
measures the kernel's implementation of the hash table.

This is a multi-threaded program that simply measures the amount of
failed futex wait calls - we only want to deal with the hashing
overhead, so a negative return of futex_wait_setup() is enough to do the
trick.

An example run:

  $ perf bench futex hash -t 32

4157922a90 perf bench: Change the procps visible command-name of invididual benchmark tests plus cleanups
Before this patch, looking at 'perf bench sched pipe' behavior over
'top' only told us that something related to perf is running:

      PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
    19934 mingo     20   0 54836 1296  952 R 18.6  0.0   0:00.56 perf
    19935 mingo     20   0 54836  384   36 S 18.6  0.0   0:00.56 perf

After the patch it's clearly visible what's going on:

      PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
    19744 mingo     20   0  125m 3536 2644 R 68.2  0.0   0:01.12 sched-pipe
    19745 mingo     20   0  125m 1172  276 R 68.2  0.0   0:01.12 sched-pipe

The benchmark-subsystem name is concatenated with the individual
testcase name.

Unfortunately 'perf top' does not show the reconfigured name, possibly
because it caches ->comm[] values and does not recognize changes to
them?

Also clean up a few bits in builtin-bench.c while at it and reorganize
the code and the output strings to be consistent.

Use iterators to access the various arrays. Rename 'suites' concept to
'benchmark collection' and the 'bench_suite' to 'benchmark/bench'. The
many repetitions of 'suite' made the code harder to read and understand.

The new output is:

1c13f3c904 perf: Add 'perf bench numa mem' NUMA performance measurement suite
Add a suite of NUMA performance benchmarks.

The goal was simulate the behavior and access patterns of real NUMA
workloads, via a wide range of parameters, so this tool goes well
beyond simple bzero() measurements that most NUMA micro-benchmarks use:

 - It processes the data and creates a chain of data dependencies,
   like a real workload would. Neither the compiler, nor the
   kernel (via KSM and other optimizations) nor the CPU can
   eliminate parts of the workload.

 - It randomizes the initial state and also randomizes the target
   addresses of the processing - it's not a simple forward scan
   of addresses.

 - It provides flexible options to set process, thread and memory
   relationship information: -G sets "global" memory shared between
   all test processes, -P sets "process" memory shared by all
   threads of a process and -T sets "thread" private memory.

 - There's a NUMA convergence monitoring and convergence latency
   measurement option via -c and -m.

 - Micro-sleeps and synchronization can be injected to provoke lock
   contention and scheduling, via the -u and -S options. This simulates
   IO and contention.

 - The -x option instructs the workload to 'perturb' itself artificially
   every N seconds, by moving to the first and last CPU of the system
   periodically. This way the stability of convergence equilibrium and
   the number of steps taken for the scheduler to reach equilibrium again
   can be measured.

 - The amount of work can be specified via the -l loop count, and/or
   via a -s seconds-timeout value.

 - CPU and node memory binding options, to test hard binding scenarios.
   THP can be turned on and off via madvise() calls.

 - Live reporting of convergence progress in an 'at glance' output format.
   Printing of convergence and deconvergence events.

The 'perf bench numa mem -a' option will start an array of about 30
individual tests that will each output such measurements:

 # Running  5x5-bw-thread, "perf bench numa mem -p 5 -t 5 -P 512 -s 20 -zZ0q --thp  1"

9b494ea2f5 perf bench: Flush stdout before starting bench suite
perf bench prints header message for bench suite before starting the
benchmark.  However if the stdout is redirected to a file and bench
suite forks child processes this (and possibly other debugging
messages too) will be repeated multiple times.

  $ perf bench sched messaging
  # Running sched/messaging benchmark...
  # 20 sender and receiver processes per group
  # 10 groups == 400 processes run

       Total time: 0.100 [sec]

  $ perf bench sched messaging > result.txt
  $ wc -l result.txt
  391

In this file, there were so many "Running sched/messaging benchmark..."
lines.  This was because stdout is converted to fully-buffered due to
the redirection and inherited child processes.  Other lines are printed
after reaping all those tasks.

So fix it by flushing stdout before starting bench suites.

1d037ca164 perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variables
perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking
unused variables. The variable __used is defined to
__attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to
__attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is
also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning:
'__used__' attribute ignored

__unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition.
If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to
conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name
in its headers.

The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the
kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one
definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the
same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android.
This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with
__maybe_unused.

edb7c60e27 perf options: Type check all the remaining OPT_ variants
OPT_SET_INT was renamed to OPT_SET_UINT since the only use in these
tools is to set something that has an enum type, that is builtin
compatible with unsigned int.

Several string constifications were done to make OPT_STRING require a
const char * type.

2044279d1e perf bench: Add "all" pseudo subsystem and "all" pseudo suite
This patch adds a new "all" pseudo subsystem and an "all" pseudo
suite. These are for testing all subsystem and its all suite, or
all suite of one subsystem.

(This patch also contains a few trivial comment fixes for
bench/* and output style fixes. I judged that there are no
necessity to make them into individual patch.)

Example of use:

| % ./perf bench sched all                      # Test all suites of sched subsystem
| # Running sched/messaging benchmark...
| # 20 sender and receiver processes per group
| # 10 groups == 400 processes run
|
|      Total time: 0.414 [sec]
|
| # Running sched/pipe benchmark...
| # Extecuted 1000000 pipe operations between two tasks
