There's no reason to have separate function to display clock events.
It's only purpose was to convert the nanosecond value into microseconds.
We do that now in generic code, if the unit and scale values are
properly set, which this patch do for clock events.
The output differs in the unit field being displayed in its columns
rather than having it added as a suffix of the event name. Plus the
value is rounded into 2 decimal numbers as for any other event.
Before:
# perf stat -e cpu-clock,task-clock -C 0 sleep 3
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':
3001.123137 cpu-clock (msec) # 1.000 CPUs utilized
3001.133250 task-clock (msec) # 1.000 CPUs utilized
3.001159813 seconds time elapsed
Now:
# perf stat -e cpu-clock,task-clock -C 0 sleep 3
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':
3,001.05 msec cpu-clock # 1.000 CPUs utilized
3,001.05 msec task-clock # 1.000 CPUs utilized
3.001077794 seconds time elapsed
There's a small difference in csv output, as we now output the unit
field, which was empty before. It's in the proper spot, so there's no
compatibility issue.
Before:
# perf stat -e cpu-clock,task-clock -C 0 -x, sleep 3

The 'perf stat' command line flag -T to display transaction counters is
currently supported for x86 only.
Add support for s390. It is based on the metrics flag -M transaction
using the architecture dependent JSON files. This requires a metric
named "transaction" in the JSON files for the platform.
Introduce a new function metricgroup__has_metric() to check for the
existence of a metric_name transaction.
As suggested by Andi Kleen, this is the new approach to support
transactions counters. Other architectures will follow.
Output before:
[root@p23lp27 perf]# ./perf stat -T -- sleep 1
Cannot set up transaction events
[root@p23lp27 perf]#
Output after:
[root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf stat -T -- ~/mytesttx 1 >/tmp/111

So as of now, for workload targets, we display 3 types of timings. The
time we meassure in perf stat from enable to disable+period:

The time spent in user and system lands, displayed only for workload
session/target:

Ingo suggested to display elapsed time for multirun workload (perf stat
-e) with precision based on the precision of the standard deviation.
In his own words:
> This output is a slightly bit misleading:
> Performance counter stats for 'make -j128' (10 runs):
> 27.988995256 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.39% )
> The 9 significant digits in the result, while only 1 is valid, suggests accuracy
> where none exists.
> It would be better if 'perf stat' would display elapsed time with a precision
> adjusted to stddev, it should display at most 2 more significant digits than
> the stddev inaccuracy.
> I.e. in the above case 0.39% is 0.109, so we only have accuracy for 1 digit, and
> so we should only display 3:
> 27.988 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.39% )
Plus a suggestion about the output, which is small enough and connected
with the above change that I merged both changes together.
> Small output style nit - I think it would be nice if with --repeat the stddev was
> also displayed in absolute values, besides percentage:
>
> 27.988 +- 0.109 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.39% )

Perf doesn't support mixed events from different PMUs (except software
event) in a group. For this case, only "<not counted>" or "<not
supported>" are printed out. There is no hint which guides users to fix
the issue.
Checking the PMU type of events to determine if they are from the same
PMU. There may be false alarm for the checking. E.g. the core PMU has
different PMU type. But it should not happen often.
The false alarm can also be tolerated, because:
- It only happens on error path.
- It just provides a possible solution for the issue.

Currently print count interval for performance counters values is
limited by 10ms so reading the values at frequencies higher than 100Hz
is restricted by the tool.
This change makes perf stat -I possible on frequencies up to 1KHz and,
to some extent, makes perf stat -I to be on-par with perf record
sampling profiling.

at the same time profiling some I/O workload by perf record e.g. for
cpu-cycles and context switches, it is then possible to observe
consolidated CPU/OS/IO(Uncore) performance picture for that workload.
Tool overhead warning printed when specifying -v option can be missed
due to screen scrolling in case you have output to the console
so message is moved into help available by running perf stat -h.

It turns out that a NULL pointer is referenced. Here are the
function calls:
...
cmd_stat()
+---> add_default_attributes()
+---> parse_events(evsel_list, transaction_attrs, NULL);
3rd parameter set to NULL
Function parse_events(xx, xx, struct parse_events_error *err) dives
into a bison generated scanner and creates
parser state information for it first:
struct parse_events_state parse_state = {
.list = LIST_HEAD_INIT(parse_state.list),
.idx = evlist->nr_entries,
.error = err, <--- NULL POINTER !!!
.evlist = evlist,
};
Now various functions inside the bison scanner are called to end up in
__parse_events_add_pmu(struct parse_events_state *parse_state, ..) with
first parameter being a pointer to above structure definition.
Now the PMU event name is not found (because being executed in a VM) and
this function tries to create an error message with
asprintf(&parse_state->error.str, ....)
which references a NULL pointer and dumps core.
Fix this by providing a pointer to the necessary error information
instead of NULL. Technically only the else part is needed to avoid the
core dump, just lets be safe...

To simplify creation of events accross multiple instances of the same
type of PMU stat supports two methods for creating multiple events from
a single event specification:
1. A prefix or glob can be used in the PMU name.
2. Aliases, which are listed immediately after the Kernel PMU events
by perf list, are used.
When the --no-merge option is passed and these events are displayed
individually the PMU name is lost and it's not possible to see which
count corresponds to which pmu:
$ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
67 l3cache/read-miss/
67 l3cache/read-miss/
63 l3cache/read-miss/
60 l3cache/read-miss/
0.001675706 seconds time elapsed
$ perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null

12 l3cache_read_miss
17 l3cache_read_miss
10 l3cache_read_miss
8 l3cache_read_miss
0.001661305 seconds time elapsed
This change adds the original pmu name to the event. For dynamic pmu
events the pmu name is restored in the event name:
$ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
63 l3cache_0_3/read-miss/

64 l3cache_0_2/read-miss/
74 l3cache_0_0/read-miss/

For alias events the name is added after the event name:
$ perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null

When printing stats in CSV mode, 'perf stat' appends extra separators
when a counter is not supported:
<not supported>,,L1-dcache-store-misses,mesos/bd442f34-2b4a-47df-b966-9b281f9f56fc,0,100.00,,,,
Which causes a failure when parsing fields. The numbers of separators
should be the same for each line, no matter if the counter is or not
supported.

If we execute 'perf stat --per-thread' with non-root account (even set
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1 yet), it reports the error:
jinyao@skl:~$ perf stat --per-thread
Error:
You may not have permission to collect system-wide stats.
Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid,
which controls use of the performance events system by
unprivileged users (without CAP_SYS_ADMIN).
The current value is 2:
-1: Allow use of (almost) all events by all users
Ignore mlock limit after perf_event_mlock_kb without CAP_IPC_LOCK
>= 0: Disallow ftrace function tracepoint by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
Disallow raw tracepoint access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
>= 1: Disallow CPU event access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
>= 2: Disallow kernel profiling by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
To make this setting permanent, edit /etc/sysctl.conf too, e.g.:
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1
Perhaps the ptrace rule doesn't allow to trace some processes. But anyway
the global --per-thread mode had better ignore such errors and continue
working on other threads.
This patch will record the index of error thread in perf_evsel__open()
and remove this thread before retrying.
For example (run with non-root, kernel.perf_event_paranoid isn't set):
jinyao@skl:~$ perf stat --per-thread

Introduce a new option to print counts after N milliseconds and update
'perf stat' documentation accordingly.
Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat.
$ perf stat --time 2000 -e cycles -a
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
157,260,423 cycles
2.003060766 seconds time elapsed
We can print the count deltas after N milliseconds with this new
introduced option. This option is not supported with "-I" option.
In addition, according to Kangliang's patch(19afd10410), the
monitoring overhead for system-wide core event could be very high if the
interval-print parameter was below 100ms, and the limitation value is
10ms.
So the same warning will be displayed when the time is set between 10ms
to 100ms, and the minimal time is limited to 10ms. Users can make a
decision according to their spcific cases.
Committer notes:
This actually stops the workload after the specified time, then prints
the counts.
So I renamed the option to --timeout and updated the documentation to
state that it will not just print the counts after the specified time,
but will really stop the 'perf stat' session and print the counts.
The rename from 'time' to 'timeout' also fixes the build in systems
where 'time' is used by glibc and can't be used as a name of a variable,
such as centos:5 and centos:6.
Changes since v3:
- none.
Changes since v2:
- modify the time check in __run_perf_stat func to keep some consistency
with the workload case.
- add the warning when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms.
- add the pr_err when the time is set below 10ms.
Changes since v1:
- none.

Introduce a new option to print counts for fixed number of times and
update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly.
Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat.

# time counts unit events
1.002827089 93,884,870 cycles
2.004231506 56,573,446 cycles
We can just print the counts for several times with this newly
introduced option. The usage of it is a little like 'vmstat', and it
should be used together with "-I" option.
$ vmstat -n 1 2

Changes since v3:
- merge interval_count check and times check to one line.
- fix the wrong indent in stat.h
- use stat_config.times instead of 'times' in cmd_stat function.
Changes since v2:
- none.
Changes since v1:
- change the name of the new option "times-print" to "interval-count".
- keep the new option interval specifically.

Currently, if we execute 'perf stat --per-thread' without specifying
pid/tid, perf will return error.
root@skl:/tmp# perf stat --per-thread
The --per-thread option is only available when monitoring via -p -t options.
-p, --pid <pid> stat events on existing process id
-t, --tid <tid> stat events on existing thread id
This patch removes this limitation. If no pid/tid specified, it returns
all threads (get threads from /proc).
Note that it doesn't support cpu_list yet so if it's a cpu_list case,
then skip.

The function perf_stat__print_shadow_stats() is called to print the
shadow stats on a set of static variables.
But the static variables are the limitations to support
per-thread shadow stats.
This patch lets the perf_stat__print_shadow_stats() support
to print the shadow stats from a input parameter 'st'.
It will not directly get value from static variable. Instead,
it now uses runtime_stat_avg() and runtime_stat_n() to get and
compute the values.
