Currently the max value of format is calculated by the bits number. It
relies on the continuity of the format.
However, uncore event format is not continuous. E.g. uncore qpi event
format can be 0-7,21.
If bit 21 is set, there is parsing issues as below.
$ perf stat -a -e uncore_qpi_0/event=0x200002,umask=0x8/
event syntax error: '..pi_0/event=0x200002,umask=0x8/'
\___ value too big for format, maximum is 511
This patch return the real max value by setting all possible bits to 1.

Intel PT uses the time members from the perf_event_mmap_page to convert
between TSC and perf time.
Due to a lack of foresight when Intel PT was implemented, those time
members were recorded in the (implementation dependent) AUXTRACE_INFO
event, the structure of which is generally inaccessible outside of the
Intel PT decoder. However now the conversion between TSC and perf time
is needed when processing a jitdump file when Intel PT has been used for
tracing.
So add a user event to record the time members. 'perf record' will
synthesize the event if the information is available. And session
processing will put a copy of the event on the session so that tools
like 'perf inject' can easily access it.

We catch this record to provide a visual indication that events are
getting lost, then call the default method to allow extra logging shared
with the other tools to take place.
This extra logging was done twice because we were continuing to the

machine__process_lost_event() again, fix it.

Commit 9b07e27f88 ("perf inject: Add jitdump mmap injection support")
incorrectly assumed that PowerPC is big endian only.
Simplify things by consolidating the define of GEN_ELF_ENDIAN and checking
for __BYTE_ORDER == __BIG_ENDIAN.
The PowerPC checks were also incorrect, they do not match what gcc
emits. We should first look for __powerpc64__, then __powerpc__.

The 4b3a321223 ("perf hists browser: Support flat callchains") commit
over-aggressively tried to optimize callchain_node__init_have_children().
That lead to --tui mode not allowing to expand call chain elements if a
call chain element had only one parent. That's why --inverted callgraphs
looked halfway sane, but plain ones didn't.
Revert that individual optimization, it wasn't really related to the
rest of the commit.

When using 'perf script' to look at PT traces it is often useful to
ignore the initialization code at the beginning.
On larger traces which may have many millions of instructions in
initialization code doing that in a pipeline can be very slow, with perf
script spending a lot of CPU time calling printf and writing data.
This patch adds an extension to the --itrace argument that skips 'n'
events (instructions, branches or transactions) at the beginning. This
is much more efficient.
v2:
Add support for BTS (Adrian Hunter)
Document in itrace.txt
Fix branch check
Check transactions and instructions too

We have some infrastructure to use perl or python to analyze logs
generated by perf. Prior to this patch, only the python tools had
access to backtrace information. This patch makes this information
available to perl scripts as well. Example:
Let's look at malloc() calls made by the seq utility. First we
create a probe point:
$ perf probe -x /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 malloc
Added new events:
...
Now we run seq, while monitoring malloc() calls with perf
$ perf record --call-graph=dwarf -e probe_libc:malloc seq 5
1
2
3
4
5
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.064 MB perf.data (6 samples) ]
We can use perf to look at its log to see the malloc calls and the backtrace
$ perf script
seq 14195 [000] 1927993.748254: probe_libc:malloc: (7f9ff8edd320) bytes=0x22
7f9ff8edd320 malloc (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so)
7f9ff8e8eab0 set_binding_values.part.0 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so)
7f9ff8e8eda1 __bindtextdomain (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so)
401b22 main (/usr/bin/seq)
7f9ff8e82610 __libc_start_main (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so)
402799 _start (/usr/bin/seq)
...
We can also use the scripting facilities. We create a skeleton perl
script that simply prints out the events
$ perf script -g perl
generated Perl script: perf-script.pl
We can then use this script to see the malloc() calls with a
backtrace. Prior to this patch, the backtrace was not available to
the perl scripts.
$ perf script -s perf-script.pl
probe_libc::malloc 0 1927993.748254260 14195 seq __probe_ip=140325052863264, bytes=34

In 473398a21d ("perf tools: Add cpumode to struct perf_sample"), I
missed some places where perf_sample fields are directly initialized in
addition to what is done in perf_evsel__parse_sample(), namely when
synthesizing PERF_RECORD_{MMAP*,COMM,FORK,EXIT} for pre-existing threads
and also in intel_pt and intel_bts when synthesizing events from
processor trace, the jitdump code also was affected, fix it.
The problem was noticed with running:
# perf record -e intel_pt//u true
# perf script
Where the samples wouldn't get resolved because perf_sample.cpumode
would be left as zero, i.e. PERF_RECORD_MISC_CPUMODE_UNKNOWN, not
resolving as kernel, hypervisor or user cpu modes.

So we need to trow away just stdout, leaving stderr to be caught by
the build tests infrastructure, so that we can see what went wrong
when the tarpkg build test fails:
$ make -C tools/perf build-test
make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
- tarpkg: ./tests/perf-targz-src-pkg .
tests/make:302: recipe for target 'tarpkg' failed
make[1]: *** [tarpkg] Error 2
Makefile:102: recipe for target 'build-test' failed
make: *** [build-test] Error 2
make: Leaving directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
$ cat tools/perf/tarpkg

PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g05f5ec
PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g05f5ec

$
So the test flow is:
1. Run: 'make -C tools/perf build-test'
2. One of its tests failed, in this case, the 'tarpkg' one
3. Look at what went wrong, by looking at the output of that test, in
tools/perf/tarpkg
Admittedly, this should be shortcircuited to showing what went wrong directly
from the 'make build-test' step, but lets first fix this tarpkg one and the
problem it spotted, which should be fixed by adding some extra file to the
tools/perf/MANIFEST so that detached tarballs continue being self contained and
build successfully.

Pull 'objtool' stack frame validation from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree adds a new kernel build-time object file validation feature
(ONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION=y): kernel stack frame correctness validation.
It was written by and is maintained by Josh Poimboeuf.
The motivation: there's a category of hard to find kernel bugs, most
of them in assembly code (but also occasionally in C code), that
degrades the quality of kernel stack dumps/backtraces. These bugs are
hard to detect at the source code level. Such bugs result in
incorrect/incomplete backtraces most of time - but can also in some
rare cases result in crashes or other undefined behavior.
The build time correctness checking is done via the new 'objtool'
user-space utility that was written for this purpose and which is
hosted in the kernel repository in tools/objtool/. The tool's (very
simple) UI and source code design is shaped after Git and perf and
shares quite a bit of infrastructure with tools/perf (which tooling
infrastructure sharing effort got merged via perf and is already
upstream). Objtool follows the well-known kernel coding style.
Objtool does not try to check .c or .S files, it instead analyzes the
resulting .o generated machine code from first principles: it decodes
the instruction stream and interprets it. (Right now objtool supports
the x86-64 architecture.)
From tools/objtool/Documentation/stack-validation.txt:
"The kernel CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION option enables a host tool named
objtool which runs at compile time. It has a "check" subcommand
which analyzes every .o file and ensures the validity of its stack
metadata. It enforces a set of rules on asm code and C inline
assembly code so that stack traces can be reliable.
Currently it only checks frame pointer usage, but there are plans to
add CFI validation for C files and CFI generation for asm files.
For each function, it recursively follows all possible code paths
and validates the correct frame pointer state at each instruction.
It also follows code paths involving special sections, like
.altinstructions, __jump_table, and __ex_table, which can add
alternative execution paths to a given instruction (or set of
instructions). Similarly, it knows how to follow switch statements,
for which gcc sometimes uses jump tables."
When this new kernel option is enabled (it's disabled by default), the
tool, if it finds any suspicious assembly code pattern, outputs
warnings in compiler warning format:
warning: objtool: rtlwifi_rate_mapping()+0x2e7: frame pointer state mismatch
warning: objtool: cik_tiling_mode_table_init()+0x6ce: call without frame pointer save/setup
warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3c0: duplicate frame pointer save
warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3fd: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer
... so that scripts that pick up compiler warnings will notice them.
All known warnings triggered by the tool are fixed by the tree, most
of the commits in fact prepare the kernel to be warning-free. Most of
them are bugfixes or cleanups that stand on their own, but there are
also some annotations of 'special' stack frames for justified cases
such entries to JIT-ed code (BPF) or really special boot time code.
There are two other long-term motivations behind this tool as well:
- To improve the quality and reliability of kernel stack frames, so
that they can be used for optimized live patching.
- To create independent infrastructure to check the correctness of
CFI stack frames at build time. CFI debuginfo is notoriously
unreliable and we cannot use it in the kernel as-is without extra
checking done both on the kernel side and on the build side.
The quality of kernel stack frames matters to debuggability as well,
so IMO we can merge this without having to consider the live patching
or CFI debuginfo angle"

In tracepoints, it's possible to print gfp flags in a human-friendly
format through a macro show_gfp_flags(), which defines a translation
array and passes is to __print_flags(). Since the following patch will
introduce support for gfp flags printing in printk(), it would be nice
to reuse the array. This is not straightforward, since __print_flags()
can't simply reference an array defined in a .c file such as mm/debug.c
- it has to be a macro to allow the macro magic to communicate the
format to userspace tools such as trace-cmd.
The solution is to create a macro __def_gfpflag_names which is used both
in show_gfp_flags(), and to define the gfpflag_names[] array in
mm/debug.c.
On the other hand, mm/debug.c also defines translation tables for page
flags and vma flags, and desire was expressed (but not implemented in
this series) to use these also from tracepoints. Thus, this patch also
renames the events/gfpflags.h file to events/mmflags.h and moves the
table definitions there, using the same macro approach as for gfpflags.
This allows translating all three kinds of mm-specific flags both in
tracepoints and printk.

The topology test case of 'perf test' seems to be broken on my x86

There are 8 online CPUs:
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/online

but core-ids are not sequential and some core-ids exceed the number

Add a new mode to only print metrics. Sometimes we don't care about the
raw values, just want the computed metrics. This allows more compact
printing, so with -I each sample is only a single line. This also
allows easier plotting and processing with other tools.
The main target is with using --topdown, but it also works with -T and
standard perf stat. A few metrics are not supported.
To avoiding having to hardcode all the metrics in the code it uses a two
pass approach: first compute dummy metrics and only print the headers in
the print_metric callback. Then use the callback to print the actual
values.
There are some additional changes in the stat printout code to handle
all metrics being on a single line.
One issue is that the column code doesn't know in advance what events
are not supported by the CPU, and it would be hard to find out as this
could change based on dynamic conditions. That causes empty columns in
some cases.
The output can be fairly wide, often you may need more than 80 columns.
Example:
% perf stat -a -I 1000 --metric-only

The context menu in TUI hists browser checks corresponding sort keys
when creating the menu item. But hotkey actions lacks these checks so
it can filter using incorrect info.
For example, default sort key of 'perf top' doesn't contain 'comm' or
'pid' sort key so each hist entry's thread info is not reliable. Thus
it should prohibit using thread filter on 't' key.

The commit 2eafd410e6 ("perf hists browser: Only 'Zoom into thread'
only when sort order has 'pid'") disabled thread filtering in hist
browser for the default sort key. However the he->thread is still valid
even if 'pid' sort key is not given. Only thing it should not use is
the pid (or tid) of the thread. So allow to filter by thread when
'comm' sort key is given and show pid only if 'pid' sort key is given.

When hierarchy mode is enabled, each entry in a hierarchy level shares
the period. IOW an upper level entry's period is the sum of lower level
entries. Thus perf uses only one of them to calculate the total period
of hists. It was lowest-level (leaf) entries but it has a problem when
it comes to filters.
If a filter is applied, entries in the same level will be filtered or
not. But upper level entries still have period of their sum including
filtered one. So total sum of upper level entries will not be same as
sum of lower level entries.
This resulted in entries having more than 100% of overhead and it can be
produced using perf top with filter(s).

The nr_sort_keys field is to carry the number of sort entries in a
hpp_list or hists to determine the depth of indentation of a hist entry.
As it's only used in hierarchy mode and now we have used nr_hpp_node for
this reason, there's no need to keep it anymore. Let's get rid of it.

into a file so it needs to be sync-ed with the corresponding function

When a command-line filter is applied in hierarchy mode, output is
broken especially when filtering on lower level. The higher level
entries doesn't show up so it's hard to see the results.
Also it needs to handle multi sort keys in a single hierarchy level.

This implements having multiple sort keys in a single hierarchy level.
Originally only single sort key is supported for each level, but now
using the group syntax with '{ }', it can set more than one sort key in
one level. Note that now it needs to quote in order to prevent shell
interpretation.
For example:
$ perf report --hierarchy -s '{comm,dso},sym'
...
# Overhead Command / Shared Object / Symbol
# .............. ..........................................
#
48.67% swapper [kernel.vmlinux]

1.09% [.] 0x000000000000ff4b
6.11% Xorg libc-2.22.so
5.27% [.] __memcpy_sse2_unaligned
In the above example, the command name and the shared object name are
shown on the same line but the symbol name is on the different line.
Since the first two are grouped by '{}', they are in the same level.

Commit b9511cd761 ("perf/x86: Fix time_shift in perf_event_mmap_page")
altered the time conversion algorithms documented in the perf_event.h
header file, to use 64-bit shifts. That was done to make the code more
future-proof (i.e. some time in the future a 32-bit shift could be
allowed). Reflect those changes in perf tools.

In preparation for moving clockid validation into jit_process().
Previously a return value of zero meant the processing had been done and
non-zero meant either the processing was not done (i.e. not the jitdump
file mmap event) or an error occurred.
Change it so that zero means the processing was not done, one means the
processing was done and successful, and negative values are an error.

Currently, when injecting build ids, if there is AUX data then 'perf
inject' hits all DSOs because it is not known which DSOs the trace data
would hit.
That needs to be done for JIT injection also, and in fact there is no
reason to distinguish what kind of injection is being done. That is,
any time there is AUX data and the HEADER_BUID_ID feature flag is set,
and the AUX data is not being processed, then hit all DSOs. This patch
does that.

When running objtool on a ppc64le host to analyze x86 binaries, it
reports a lot of false warnings like:
ipc/compat_mq.o: warning: objtool: compat_SyS_mq_open()+0x91: can't find jump dest instruction at .text+0x3a5
The warnings are caused by the x86 instruction decoder setting the wrong
value for the jump instruction's immediate field because it assumes that
"char == signed char", which isn't true for all architectures. When
converting char to int, gcc sign-extends on x86 but doesn't sign-extend
on ppc64le.
According to the gcc man page, that's a feature, not a bug:
> Each kind of machine has a default for what "char" should be. It is
> either like "unsigned char" by default or like "signed char" by
> default.
>
> Ideally, a portable program should always use "signed char" or
> "unsigned char" when it depends on the signedness of an object.
Conform to the "standards" by changing the "char" casts to "signed
char". This results in no actual changes to the object code on x86.
Note: the x86 decoder now lives in three different locations in the
kernel tree, which are all kept in sync via makefile checks and
warnings: in-kernel, perf, and objtool. This fixes all three locations.
Eventually we should probably try to at least converge the two separate
"tools" locations into a single shared location.

After babeltrace commit 5cec03e402aa ("ir: copy variants and sequences
when setting a field path"), 'perf data convert' gets incorrect result
if there's bpf output data. For example:
# perf data convert --to-ctf ./out.ctf
# babeltrace ./out.ctf
[10:44:31.186045346] (+?.?????????) evt: { cpu_id = 0 }, { perf_ip = 0xFFFFFFFF810E7DD1, perf_tid = 23819, perf_pid = 23819, perf_id = 518, raw_len = 3, raw_data = [ [0] = 0xC028E32F, [1] = 0x815D0100, [2] = 0x1000000 ] }
[10:44:31.286101003] (+0.100055657) evt: { cpu_id = 0 }, { perf_ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8105B609, perf_tid = 23819, perf_pid = 23819, perf_id = 518, raw_len = 3, raw_data = [ [0] = 0x35D9F1EB, [1] = 0x15D81, [2] = 0x2 ] }
The expected result of the first sample should be:
raw_data = [ [0] = 0x2FE328C0, [1] = 0x15D81, [2] = 0x1 ] }
however, 'perf data convert' output big endian value to resuling CTF
file.
The reason is a internal change (or a bug?) of babeltrace.
Before this patch, at the first add_bpf_output_values(), byte order of
all integer type is uncertain (is 0, neither 1234 (le) nor 4321 (be)).
It would be fixed by:
perf_evlist__deliver_sample
-> process_sample_event
-> ctf_stream
...
->bt_ctf_trace_add_stream_class
->bt_ctf_field_type_structure_set_byte_order
->bt_ctf_field_type_integer_set_byte_order
during creating the stream.
However, the babeltrace commit mentioned above duplicates types in
sequence to prevent potential conflict in following call stack and link
the newly allocated type into the 'raw_data' sequence:
perf_evlist__deliver_sample
-> process_sample_event
-> ctf_stream
...
-> bt_ctf_trace_add_stream_class
-> bt_ctf_stream_class_resolve_types
...
-> bt_ctf_field_type_sequence_copy
->bt_ctf_field_type_integer_copy
This happens before byte order setting, so only the newly allocated
type is initialized, the byte order of original type perf choose to
create the first raw_data is still uncertain.
Byte order in CTF output is not related to byte order in perf.data.
Setting it to anything other than BT_CTF_BYTE_ORDER_NATIVE solves this
problem (only BT_CTF_BYTE_ORDER_NATIVE needs to be fixed). To reduce
behavior changing, set byte order according to compiling options.
