The perf_hpp__init currently does not respect sorting dimensions and the
setup_sorting function could endup queueing same format twice. That
screwed up the perf_hpp__list and got stuck in loop within

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.

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.

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().

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.

Actually, "perf script" just shows 21 samples. The number of samples is also

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.

A previous patch added a synthesized comm event for forked child process
but it missed that the event should contain area for sample_id_hdr at
the end. It worked by accident since the perf_event union contains
bigger event structs like mmap_events.
This patch fixes it by dynamically allocating event struct including
those area like in perf_event__synthesize_thread_map().

If the user doesn't specify any event, try the most precise "cycles"
available, i.e. start by "cycles:ppp" and go on removing "p" till it
works.
E.g.
$ perf record usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (11 samples) ]
$ perf evlist
cycles:pp
$ perf evlist -v
cycles:pp: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type:
IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1,
enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, precise_ip: 2, sample_id_all: 1,
exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
$ grep 'model name' /proc/cpuinfo | head -1
model name : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3667U CPU @ 2.00GHz
$
When 'cycles' appears explicitely is specified this will not be tried,
i.e. the user has full control of the level of precision to be used:
$ perf record -e cycles usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.016 MB perf.data (9 samples) ]
$ perf evlist
cycles
$ perf evlist -v
cycles: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type:
IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1,
enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2:

perf probe --list will get a segfault if the first kprobe event is on a
module and the second or latter one is on the kernel.
e.g.
----
# ./perf probe -q -m pcspkr pcspkr_event
# ./perf probe -q vfs_read
# ./perf probe -l
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
----
This is because the debuginfo_cache fails to handle NULL module name,
which causes segfault on strcmp. (Note that strcmp("something", NULL)
always causes segfault)
To fix this debuginfo_cache__open always translates the NULL module name
to "kernel" (this is correct, because NULL module name means opening the
debuginfo for the kernel)

The perf_regs.c file 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.

so people specifying --max-stack might get a increased processing time if
combined with synthesized callchains, but otherwise no real harm.

events, and prepends pmu formats for pmu events.
Before this patch:

invalid or unsupported event: 'cpu-clock/freqx=200/'

usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
-e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
After this patch:
$ perf record -e 'cpu-clock/freqx=200/' -a sleep 1
event syntax error: 'cpu-clock/freqx=200/'

Currently, function config_term() is used for checking config terms of
all types of events, while unknown terms is not reported as an error
because pmu events have valid terms in sysfs.
But this is wrong when unknown terms are specificed to hw/sw events.
This patch Adds the config_term callback so we can use separate check
routines for each type of events.

autofdo incorrectly expects branch flags to include either mispred or
predicted. In fact mispred = predicted = 0 is valid and means the flags
are not supported, which they aren't by Intel PT.
To make autofdo work, add a config option which will cause Intel PT
decoder to set the mispred flag on all branches.
Below is an example of using Intel PT with autofdo. The example is
also added to the Intel PT documentation. It requires autofdo
(https://github.com/google/autofdo) and gcc version 5. The bubble
sort example is from the AutoFDO tutorial (https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/AutoFDO/Tutorial)
amended to take the number of elements as a parameter.
$ gcc-5 -O3 sort.c -o sort_optimized
$ ./sort_optimized 30000
Bubble sorting array of 30000 elements
2254 ms
$ cat ~/.perfconfig
[intel-pt]
mispred-all
$ perf record -e intel_pt//u ./sort 3000
Bubble sorting array of 3000 elements
58 ms
[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 3.939 MB perf.data ]
$ perf inject -i perf.data -o inj --itrace=i100usle --strip
$ ./create_gcov --binary=./sort --profile=inj --gcov=sort.gcov -gcov_version=1
$ gcc-5 -O3 -fauto-profile=sort.gcov sort.c -o sort_autofdo
$ ./sort_autofdo 30000
Bubble sorting array of 30000 elements
2155 ms
Note there is currently no advantage to using Intel PT instead of LBR,
but that may change in the future if greater use is made of the data.

Add a new option --strip which is used with --itrace to strip out
non-synthesized events. This results in a perf.data file that is
simpler for external tools to parse. In particular, this can be used to
prepare a perf.data file for consumption by autofdo.
A subsequent patch makes a change to Intel PT also to enable use with
autofdo and gives an example of that use.
