perf docs: Refine the description for the buffer size
Current description for the AUX trace buffer size is misleading. When a user specifies the option '-m,512M', it represents a size value in bytes (512MiB) but not 512M pages (512M x 4KiB regard to a page of 4KiB). Make the document clear that the normal buffer and the AUX tracing buffer share the same semantics. Syncs the documents for consistent text.

perf annotate: Add --skip-empty option
Like in 'perf report', we want to hide empty events in the 'perf annotate'
output. This is consistent when the option is set in perf report.
For example, the following command would use 3 events including dummy.
$ perf mem record -a -- perf test -w noploop
$ perf evlist
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P
cpu/mem-stores/P
dummy:u
Just using perf annotate with --group will show the all 3 events.
$ perf annotate --group --stdio | head
Percent | Source code & Disassembly of ...
--------------------------------------------------------------
: 0 0xe060 <_dl_relocate_object>:
0.00 0.00 0.00 : e060: pushq %rbp
0.00 0.00 0.00 : e061: movq %rsp, %rbp

0.00 0.00 0.00 : e06d: movl %edx, %r13d
Now with --skip-empty, it'll hide the last dummy event.
$ perf annotate --group --stdio --skip-empty | head

perf record: Add --setup-filter option
To allow BPF filters for unprivileged users it needs to pin the BPF objects to BPF-fs first. Let's add a new option to pin and unpin the objects easily. I'm not sure 'perf record' is a right place to do this but I don't have a better idea right now. $ sudo perf record --setup-filter pin The above command would pin BPF program and maps for the filter when the system has BPF-fs (usually at /sys/fs/bpf/). To unpin the objects, users can run the following command (as root). $ sudo perf record --setup-filter unpin Committer testing: root@number:~# perf record --setup-filter pin root@number:~# ls -la /sys/fs/bpf/perf_filter/ total 0 drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 0 Jul 31 10:43 . drwxr-xr-t. 3 root root 0 Jul 31 10:43 .. -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root root 0 Jul 31 10:43 dropped -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root root 0 Jul 31 10:43 filters -rwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 0 Jul 31 10:43 perf_sample_filter -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root root 0 Jul 31 10:43 pid_hash -rw-------. 1 root root 0 Jul 31 10:43 sample_f_rodata root@number:~# ls -la /sys/fs/bpf/perf_filter/perf_sample_filter -rwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 0 Jul 31 10:43 /sys/fs/bpf/perf_filter/perf_sample_filter root@number:~# Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: KP Singh <kpsingh@kernel.org> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Song Liu <song@kernel.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: bpf@vger.kernel.org Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240703223035.2024586-8-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> |

perf ftrace: Add 'tail' option to --graph-opts
The 'graph-tail' option is to print function name as a comment at the end.
This is useful when a large function is mixed with other functions
(possibly from different CPUs).
For example,
$ sudo perf ftrace -- perf stat true
...
1) | get_unused_fd_flags() {
1) | alloc_fd() {
1) 0.178 us | _raw_spin_lock();
1) 0.187 us | expand_files();
1) 0.169 us | _raw_spin_unlock();
1) 1.211 us | }
1) 1.503 us | }
$ sudo perf ftrace --graph-opts tail -- perf stat true
...
1) | get_unused_fd_flags() {
1) | alloc_fd() {
1) 0.099 us | _raw_spin_lock();
1) 0.083 us | expand_files();
1) 0.081 us | _raw_spin_unlock();
1) 0.601 us | } /* alloc_fd */
1) 0.751 us | } /* get_unused_fd_flags */

perf sched map: Add task-name option to filter the output map
By default, perf sched map prints sched-in events for all the tasks which may not be required all the time as it prints lot of symbols and rows to the terminal. With --task-name option, one could specify the specific task name for which the map has to be shown. This would help in analyzing the CPU usage patterns easier for that specific task. Since multiple PID's might have the same task name, using task-name filter would be more useful for debugging. For other tasks, instead of printing the symbol, '-' is printed and the same '.' is used to represent idle. '-' is used instead of symbol for other tasks because it helps in clear visualization of task of interest and secondly the symbol itself doesn't mean anything because the sched-in of that symbol will not be printed(first sched-in contains pid and the corresponding symbol). When using the --task-name option, the sched-out time is represented by a '*-'. Since not all task sched-in events are printed, the sched-out time of the relevant task might be lost. This representation ensures that the sched-out time of the interested task is not overlooked. 6.10.0-rc1 ========== *A0 131040.639793 secs A0 => migration/0:19 *. 131040.639801 secs . => swapper:0 . *B0 131040.639830 secs B0 => migration/1:24 . *. 131040.639836 secs . . *C0 131040.640108 secs C0 => migration/2:30 . . *. 131040.640163 secs . . . *D0 131040.640386 secs D0 => migration/3:36 . . . *. 131040.640395 secs 6.10.0-rc1 + patch (--task-name wdavdaemon) ============= . *A0 . . . . - . 131040.641346 secs A0 => wdavdaemon:62509 .

perf sched replay: Fix -r/--repeat command line option for infinity
Currently, the -r/--repeat option accepts values from 0 and complains for -1. The help section specifies: -r, --repeat <n> repeat the workload replay N times (-1: infinite) The -r -1 option raises an error because replay_repeat is defined as an unsigned int. In the current implementation, the workload is repeated n times when -r <n> is used, except when n is 0. When -r is set to 0, the workload is also repeated once. This happens because when -r=0, the run_one_test function is not called. (Note that mutex unlocking, which is essential for child threads spawned to emulate the workload, happens in run_one_test.) However, mutex unlocking is still performed in the destroy_tasks function. Thus, -r=0 results in the workload running once coincidentally. To clarify and maintain the existing logic for -r >= 1 (which runs the workload the specified number of times) and to fix the issue with infinite runs, make -r=0 perform an infinite run.

perf: Timehist account sch delay for scheduled out running
When using perf timehist, sch delay is only computed for a waking task, not for a pre empted task. This patches changes sch delay to account for both. This makes sense as testing scheduling policy need to consider the effect of scheduling delay globally, not only for waking tasks. Example of `perf timehist` report before the patch for `stress` task competing with each other. First column is wait time, second column sch delay, third column runtime. 1.492060 [0000] s stress[81] 1.999 0.000 2.000 R next: stress[83] 1.494060 [0000] s stress[83] 2.000 0.000 2.000 R next: stress[81] 1.496060 [0000] s stress[81] 2.000 0.000 2.000 R next: stress[83] 1.498060 [0000] s stress[83] 2.000 0.000 1.999 R next: stress[81] After the patch, it looks like this (note that all wait time is not zero anymore): 1.492060 [0000] s stress[81] 1.999 1.999 2.000 R next: stress[83] 1.494060 [0000] s stress[83] 2.000 2.000 2.000 R next: stress[81] 1.496060 [0000] s stress[81] 2.000 2.000 2.000 R next: stress[83] 1.498060 [0000] s stress[83] 2.000 2.000 1.999 R next: stress[81] Signed-off-by: Fernand Sieber <sieberf@amazon.com> Reviewed-by: Madadi Vineeth Reddy <vineethr@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240618090339.87482-1-sieberf@amazon.com |

perf sched: Rename 'switches' column header to 'count' and add usage description, options for latency
Rename 'Switches' to 'Count' and document metrics shown for perf
sched latency output. Also add options possible with perf sched
latency.
Initially, after seeing the output of 'perf sched latency', the term
'Switches' seemed like it's the number of context switches-in for a
particular task, but upon going through the code, it was observed that
it's actually keeping track of number of times a delay was calculated so
that it is used in calculation of the average delay.
Actually, the switches here is a subset of number of context switches-in
because there are some cases where the count is not incremented in
switch-in handler 'add_sched_in_event'. For example when a task is
switched-in while it's state is not ready to run(!= THREAD_WAIT_CPU).

perf test: Reintroduce -p/--parallel and make -S/--sequential the default
We can't default to doing parallel tests as there are tests that compete for the same resources and thus clash, for instance tests that put in place 'perf probe' probes, that clean the probes without regard to other tests needs, ARM64 coresight tests, Intel PT ones, etc. So reintroduce --p/--parallel and make -S/--sequential the default. We need to come up with infrastructure that state which tests can't run in parallel because they need exclusive access to some resource, something as simple as "probes" that would then avoid 'perf probe' tests from running while other such test is running, or make the tests more resilient, till then we can't use parallel mode as default. While at it, document all these options in the 'perf test' man page.

perf report: Add weight[123] output fields
Add weight1, weight2 and weight3 fields to -F/--fields and their aliases
like 'ins_lat', 'p_stage_cyc' and 'retire_lat'. Note that they are in
the sort keys too but the difference is that output fields will sum up
the weight values and display the average.
In the sort key, users can see the distribution of weight value and I
think it's confusing we have local vs. global weight for the same weight.
For example, I experiment with mem-loads events to get the weights. On
my laptop, it seems only weight1 field is supported.
$ perf mem record -- perf test -w noploop
Let's look at the noploop function only. It has 7 samples.
$ perf script -F event,ip,sym,weight | grep noploop
# event weight ip sym
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 43 55b3c122bffc noploop
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 48 55b3c122bffc noploop
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 38 55b3c122bffc noploop <--- same weight
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 38 55b3c122bffc noploop <--- same weight
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 59 55b3c122bffc noploop
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 33 55b3c122bffc noploop
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 38 55b3c122bffc noploop <--- same weight
When you use the 'weight' sort key, it'd show entries with a separate
weight value separately. Also note that the first entry has 3 samples
with weight value 38, so they are displayed together and the weight
value is the sum of 3 samples (114 = 38 * 3).
$ perf report -n -s +weight | grep -e Weight -e noploop
# Overhead Samples Command Shared Object Symbol Weight
0.53% 3 perf perf [.] noploop 114
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 59
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 48
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 43
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 33
If you use 'local_weight' sort key, you can see the actual weight.
$ perf report -n -s +local_weight | grep -e Weight -e noploop
# Overhead Samples Command Shared Object Symbol Local Weight
0.53% 3 perf perf [.] noploop 38
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 59
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 48
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 43
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 33
But when you use the -F/--field option instead, you can see the average
weight for the while noploop function (as it won't group samples by
weight value and use the default 'comm,dso,sym' sort keys).
$ perf report -n -F +weight | grep -e Weight -e noploop
Warning:
--fields weight shows the average value unlike in the --sort key.
# Overhead Samples Weight1 Command Shared Object Symbol
1.23% 7 42.4 perf perf [.] noploop
The weight1 field shows the average value:
(38 * 3 + 59 + 48 + 43 + 33) / 7 = 42.4
Also it'd show the warning that 'weight' field has the average value.
Using 'weight1' can remove the warning.

perf stat: Support per-cluster aggregation
Some platforms have 'cluster' topology and CPUs in the cluster will
share resources like L3 Cache Tag (for HiSilicon Kunpeng SoC) or L2
cache (for Intel Jacobsville). Currently parsing and building cluster
topology have been supported since [1].
perf stat has already supported aggregation for other topologies like
die or socket, etc. It'll be useful to aggregate per-cluster to find
problems like L3T bandwidth contention.
This patch add support for "--per-cluster" option for per-cluster
aggregation. Also update the docs and related test. The output will
be like:
[root@localhost tmp]# perf stat -a -e LLC-load --per-cluster -- sleep 5
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
S56-D0-CLS158 4 1,321,521,570 LLC-load
S56-D0-CLS594 4 794,211,453 LLC-load
S56-D0-CLS1030 4 41,623 LLC-load
S56-D0-CLS1466 4 41,646 LLC-load
S56-D0-CLS1902 4 16,863 LLC-load
S56-D0-CLS2338 4 15,721 LLC-load
S56-D0-CLS2774 4 22,671 LLC-load
[...]
On a legacy system without cluster or cluster support, the output will
be look like:
[root@localhost perf]# perf stat -a -e cycles --per-cluster -- sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
S56-D0-CLS0 64 18,011,485 cycles
S7182-D0-CLS0 64 16,548,835 cycles
Note that this patch doesn't mix the cluster information in the outputs
of --per-core to avoid breaking any tools/scripts using it.
Note that perf recently supports "--per-cache" aggregation, but it's not
the same with the cluster although cluster CPUs may share some cache
resources. For example on my machine all clusters within a die share the
same L3 cache:
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cache/index3/shared_cpu_list
0-31
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology/cluster_cpus_list
0-3

tools: perf: Expose sample ID / stream ID to python scripts
perf script exposes the evsel_name to python scripts as part of the data passed to the sample or tracepoint handler function, and it passes the id and stream_id to the throttled/unthrottled handler functions. This makes matching throttle events and samples difficult. To make this possible, this change exposes the sample id and stream_id values to the script.

perf tools: Add -H short option for --hierarchy
I found the hierarchy mode useful, but it's easy to make a typo when using it. Let's add a short option for that. Also update the documentation. :) Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240125055124.1579617-1-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> |

perf tools improvements and fixes for v6.8:
- Add Namhyung Kim as tools/perf/ co-maintainer, we're taking turns processing
patches, switching roles from perf-tools to perf-tools-next at each Linux
release.
Data profiling:
- Associate samples that identify loads and stores with data structures. This
uses events available on Intel, AMD and others and DWARF info:
# To get memory access samples in kernel for 1 second (on Intel)
$ perf mem record -a -K --ldlat=4 -- sleep 1
# Similar for the AMD (but it requires 6.3+ kernel for BPF filters)
$ perf mem record -a --filter 'mem_op == load || mem_op == store, ip > 0x8000000000000000' -- sleep 1
Then, amongst several modes of post processing, one can do things like:
$ perf report -s type,typeoff --hierarchy --group --stdio
...
#
# Samples: 10K of events 'cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=4/P, cpu/mem-stores/P, dummy:u'

This uses the existing annotate code, calling objdump to do the disassembly,
with improvements to avoid having this take too long, but longer term a
switch to a disassembler library, possibly reusing code in the kernel will
be pursued.
This is the initial implementation, please use it and report impressions and
bugs. Make sure the kernel-debuginfo packages match the running kernel. The
'perf report' phase for non short perf.data files may take a while.
There is a great article about it on LWN:
https://lwn.net/Articles/955709/ - "Data-type profiling for perf"

<SNIP>
perf top/report:
- Don't ignore job control, allowing control+Z + bg to work.
- Add s390 raw data interpretation for PAI (Processor Activity Instrumentation)
counters.
perf archive:
- Add new option '--all' to pack perf.data with DSOs.
- Add new option '--unpack' to expand tarballs.
Initialization speedups:
- Lazily initialize zstd streams to save memory when not using it.
- Lazily allocate/size mmap event copy.
- Lazy load kernel symbols in 'perf record'.
- Be lazier in allocating lost samples buffer in 'perf record'.
- Don't synthesize BPF events when disabled via the command line (perf record --no-bpf-event).
Assorted improvements:
- Show note on AMD systems that the :p, :pp, :ppp and :P are all the same, as
IBS (Instruction Based Sampling) is used and it is inherentely precise, not
having levels of precision like in Intel systems.
- When 'cycles' isn't available, fall back to the "task-clock" event when not
system wide, not to 'cpu-clock'.
- Add --debug-file option to redirect debug output, e.g.:
$ perf --debug-file /tmp/perf.log record -v true
- Shrink 'struct map' to under one cacheline by avoiding function pointers for
selecting if addresses are identity or DSO relative, and using just a byte for
some boolean struct members.
- Resolve the arch specific strerrno just once to use in perf_env__arch_strerrno().
- Reduce memory for recording PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES event.
Assorted fixes:
- Fix the default 'perf top' usage on Intel hybrid systems, now it starts with
a browser showing the number of samples for Efficiency (cpu_atom/cycles/P) and
Performance (cpu_core/cycles/P). This behaviour is similar on ARM64, with its
respective set of big.LITTLE processors.
- Fix segfault on build_mem_topology() error path.
- Fix 'perf mem' error on hybrid related to availability of mem event in a PMU.
- Fix missing reference count gets (map, maps) in the db-export code.
- Avoid recursively taking env->bpf_progs.lock in the 'perf_env' code.
- Use the newly introduced maps__for_each_map() to add missing locking around
iteration of 'struct map' entries.
- Parse NOTE segments until the build id is found, don't stop on the first one,
ELF files may have several such NOTE segments.
- Remove 'egrep' usage, its deprecated, use 'grep -E' instead.
- Warn first about missing libelf, not libbpf, that depends on libelf.
- Use alternative to 'find ... -printf' as this isn't supported in busybox.
- Address python 3.6 DeprecationWarning for string scapes.
- Fix memory leak in uniq() in libsubcmd.
- Fix man page formatting for 'perf lock'
- Fix some spelling mistakes.
perf tests:
- Fail shell tests that needs some symbol in perf itself if it is stripped.
These tests check if a symbol is resolved, if some hot function is indeed
detected by profiling, etc.
- The 'perf test sigtrap' test is currently failing on PREEMPT_RT, skip it if
sleeping spinlocks are detected (using BTF) and point to the mailing list
discussion about it. This test is also being skipped on several architectures
(powerpc, s390x, arm and aarch64) due to other pending issues with intruction
breakpoints.
- Adjust test case perf record offcpu profiling tests for s390.
- Fix 'Setup struct perf_event_attr' fails on s390 on z/VM guest, addressing
issues caused by the fallback from cycles to task-clock done in this release.
- Fix mask for VG register in the user-regs test.
- Use shellcheck on 'perf test' shell scripts automatically to make sure changes
don't introduce things it flags as problematic.
- Add option to change objdump binary and allow it to be set via 'perf config'.
- Add basic 'perf script', 'perf list --json" and 'perf diff' tests.
- Basic branch counter support.
- Make DSO tests a suite rather than individual.
- Remove atomics from test_loop to avoid test failures.
- Fix call chain match on powerpc for the record+probe_libc_inet_pton test.
- Improve Intel hybrid tests.
Vendor event files (JSON):
powerpc:
- Update datasource event name to fix duplicate events on IBM's Power10.
- Add PVN for HX-C2000 CPU with Power8 Architecture.
Intel:
- Alderlake/rocketlake metric fixes.
- Update emeraldrapids events to v1.02.
- Update icelakex events to v1.23.
- Update sapphirerapids events to v1.17.
- Add skx, clx, icx and spr upi bandwidth metric.
AMD:
- Add Zen 4 memory controller events.
RISC-V:
- Add StarFive Dubhe-80 and Dubhe-90 JSON files.
https://www.starfivetech.com/en/site/cpu-u
- Add T-HEAD C9xx JSON file.
https://github.com/riscv-software-src/opensbi/blob/master/docs/platform/thead-c9xx.md
ARM64:
- Remove UTF-8 characters from cmn.json, that were causing build failure in some
distros.
- Add core PMU events and metrics for Ampere One X.
- Rename Ampere One's BPU_FLUSH_MEM_FAULT to GPC_FLUSH_MEM_FAULT
libperf:
- Rename several perf_cpu_map constructor names to clarify what they really do.
- Ditto for some other methods, coping with some issues in their semantics,
like perf_cpu_map__empty() -> perf_cpu_map__has_any_cpu_or_is_empty().
- Document perf_cpu_map__nr()'s behavior
perf stat:
- Exit if parse groups fails.
- Combine the -A/--no-aggr and --no-merge options.
- Fix help message for --metric-no-threshold option.
Hardware tracing:
ARM64 CoreSight:
- Bump minimum OpenCSD version to ensure a bugfix is present.
- Add 'T' itrace option for timestamp trace
- Set start vm addr of exectable file to 0 and don't ignore first sample on the
arm-cs-trace-disasm.py 'perf script'.

disassembly, with improvements to avoid having this take too long,
but longer term a switch to a disassembler library, possibly
reusing code in the kernel will be pursued.
This is the initial implementation, please use it and report
impressions and bugs. Make sure the kernel-debuginfo packages match
the running kernel. The 'perf report' phase for non short perf.data
files may take a while.
There is a great article about it on LWN:
https://lwn.net/Articles/955709/ - "Data-type profiling for perf"
One last test I did while writing this text, on a AMD Ryzen 5950X,
using a distro kernel, while doing a simple 'find /' on an
otherwise idle system resulted in:

<SNIP>
perf top/report:
- Don't ignore job control, allowing control+Z + bg to work.
- Add s390 raw data interpretation for PAI (Processor Activity
Instrumentation) counters.
perf archive:
- Add new option '--all' to pack perf.data with DSOs.
- Add new option '--unpack' to expand tarballs.
Initialization speedups:
- Lazily initialize zstd streams to save memory when not using it.
- Lazily allocate/size mmap event copy.
- Lazy load kernel symbols in 'perf record'.
- Be lazier in allocating lost samples buffer in 'perf record'.
- Don't synthesize BPF events when disabled via the command line
(perf record --no-bpf-event).
Assorted improvements:
- Show note on AMD systems that the :p, :pp, :ppp and :P are all the
same, as IBS (Instruction Based Sampling) is used and it is
inherentely precise, not having levels of precision like in Intel
systems.
- When 'cycles' isn't available, fall back to the "task-clock" event
when not system wide, not to 'cpu-clock'.
- Add --debug-file option to redirect debug output, e.g.:
$ perf --debug-file /tmp/perf.log record -v true
- Shrink 'struct map' to under one cacheline by avoiding function
pointers for selecting if addresses are identity or DSO relative,
and using just a byte for some boolean struct members.
- Resolve the arch specific strerrno just once to use in
perf_env__arch_strerrno().
- Reduce memory for recording PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES event.
Assorted fixes:
- Fix the default 'perf top' usage on Intel hybrid systems, now it
starts with a browser showing the number of samples for Efficiency
(cpu_atom/cycles/P) and Performance (cpu_core/cycles/P). This
behaviour is similar on ARM64, with its respective set of
big.LITTLE processors.
- Fix segfault on build_mem_topology() error path.
- Fix 'perf mem' error on hybrid related to availability of mem event
in a PMU.
- Fix missing reference count gets (map, maps) in the db-export code.
- Avoid recursively taking env->bpf_progs.lock in the 'perf_env'
code.
- Use the newly introduced maps__for_each_map() to add missing
locking around iteration of 'struct map' entries.
- Parse NOTE segments until the build id is found, don't stop on the
first one, ELF files may have several such NOTE segments.
- Remove 'egrep' usage, its deprecated, use 'grep -E' instead.
- Warn first about missing libelf, not libbpf, that depends on
libelf.
- Use alternative to 'find ... -printf' as this isn't supported in
busybox.
- Address python 3.6 DeprecationWarning for string scapes.
- Fix memory leak in uniq() in libsubcmd.
- Fix man page formatting for 'perf lock'
- Fix some spelling mistakes.
perf tests:
- Fail shell tests that needs some symbol in perf itself if it is
stripped. These tests check if a symbol is resolved, if some hot
function is indeed detected by profiling, etc.
- The 'perf test sigtrap' test is currently failing on PREEMPT_RT,
skip it if sleeping spinlocks are detected (using BTF) and point to
the mailing list discussion about it. This test is also being
skipped on several architectures (powerpc, s390x, arm and aarch64)
due to other pending issues with intruction breakpoints.
- Adjust test case perf record offcpu profiling tests for s390.
- Fix 'Setup struct perf_event_attr' fails on s390 on z/VM guest,
addressing issues caused by the fallback from cycles to task-clock
done in this release.
- Fix mask for VG register in the user-regs test.
- Use shellcheck on 'perf test' shell scripts automatically to make
sure changes don't introduce things it flags as problematic.
- Add option to change objdump binary and allow it to be set via
'perf config'.
- Add basic 'perf script', 'perf list --json" and 'perf diff' tests.
- Basic branch counter support.
- Make DSO tests a suite rather than individual.
- Remove atomics from test_loop to avoid test failures.
- Fix call chain match on powerpc for the record+probe_libc_inet_pton
test.
- Improve Intel hybrid tests.
Vendor event files (JSON):
powerpc:
- Update datasource event name to fix duplicate events on IBM's
Power10.
- Add PVN for HX-C2000 CPU with Power8 Architecture.
Intel:
- Alderlake/rocketlake metric fixes.
- Update emeraldrapids events to v1.02.
- Update icelakex events to v1.23.
- Update sapphirerapids events to v1.17.

https://github.com/riscv-software-src/opensbi/blob/master/docs/platform/thead-c9xx.md
ARM64:
- Remove UTF-8 characters from cmn.json, that were causing build
failure in some distros.
- Add core PMU events and metrics for Ampere One X.
- Rename Ampere One's BPU_FLUSH_MEM_FAULT to GPC_FLUSH_MEM_FAULT
libperf:
- Rename several perf_cpu_map constructor names to clarify what they
really do.
- Ditto for some other methods, coping with some issues in their
semantics, like perf_cpu_map__empty() ->
perf_cpu_map__has_any_cpu_or_is_empty().
- Document perf_cpu_map__nr()'s behavior
perf stat:
- Exit if parse groups fails.
- Combine the -A/--no-aggr and --no-merge options.
- Fix help message for --metric-no-threshold option.
Hardware tracing:
ARM64 CoreSight:
- Bump minimum OpenCSD version to ensure a bugfix is present.
- Add 'T' itrace option for timestamp trace
- Set start vm addr of exectable file to 0 and don't ignore first
sample on the arm-cs-trace-disasm.py 'perf script'"

perf annotate: Add --data-type option
Support data type annotation with new --data-type option. It internally
uses type sort key to collect sample histogram for the type and display
every members like below.
$ perf annotate --data-type
...
Annotate type: 'struct cfs_rq' in [kernel.kallsyms] (13 samples):
============================================================================
samples offset size field
13 0 640 struct cfs_rq {
2 0 16 struct load_weight load {
2 0 8 unsigned long weight;
0 8 4 u32 inv_weight;
};
0 16 8 unsigned long runnable_weight;
0 24 4 unsigned int nr_running;
1 28 4 unsigned int h_nr_running;
...
For simplicity it prints the number of samples per field for now.
But it should be easy to show the overhead percentage instead.
The number at the outer struct is a sum of the numbers of the inner
members. For example, struct cfs_rq got total 13 samples, and 2 came
from the load (struct load_weight) and 1 from h_nr_running. Similarly,
the struct load_weight got total 2 samples and they all came from the
weight field.
I've added two new flags in the symbol_conf for this. The
annotate_data_member is to get the members of the type. This is also
needed for perf report with typeoff sort key. The annotate_data_sample
is to update sample stats for each offset and used only in annotate.
Currently it only support stdio output mode, TUI support can be added
later.
Committer testing:
With the perf.data from the previous csets, a very simple, short
duration one:
# perf annotate --data-type
Annotate type: 'struct list_head' in [kernel.kallsyms] (1 samples):
============================================================================
samples offset size field
1 0 16 struct list_head {
0 0 8 struct list_head* next;
1 8 8 struct list_head* prev;
};
Annotate type: 'char' in [kernel.kallsyms] (1 samples):
============================================================================
samples offset size field
1 0 1 char ;

perf report: Add 'type' sort key
The 'type' sort key is to aggregate hist entries by data type they

hist_entry__get_data_type() returns NULL, it'd use the 'unknown_type'
instance.

perf auxtrace: Add 'T' itrace option for timestamp trace
An AUX trace can contain timestamp, but in some situations, the hardware trace module (e.g. Arm CoreSight) cannot decide the traced timestamp is the same source with CPU's time, thus the decoder can not use the timestamp trace for samples. This patch introduces 'T' itrace option. If users know the platforms they are working on have the same time counter with CPUs, users can use this new option to tell a decoder for using timestamp trace as kernel time.

perf tools: Add branch counter knob
Add a new branch filter, "counter", for the branch counter option. It is
used to mark the events which should be logged in the branch. If it is
applied with the -j option, the counters of all the events should be
logged in the branch. If the legacy kernel doesn't support the new
branch sample type, switching off the branch counter filter.
The stored counter values in each branch are displayed right after the
regular branch stack information via perf report -D.
Usage examples:
# perf record -e "{branch-instructions,branch-misses}:S" -j any,counter
Only the first event, branch-instructions, collect the LBR. Both
branch-instructions and branch-misses are marked as logged events. The
occurrences information of them can be found in the branch stack
extension space of each branch.
# perf record -e "{cpu/branch-instructions,branch_type=any/,cpu/branch-misses,branch_type=counter/}"
Only the first event, branch-instructions, collect the LBR. Only the
branch-misses event is marked as a logged event.
Committer notes:
I noticed 'perf test "Sample parsing"' failing, reported to the list and
Kan provided a patch that checks if the evsel has a leader and that
evsel->evlist is set, the comment in the source code further explains
it.
