This covers two different use cases. The first one is cgroup
filtering given by -G/--cgroup option which controls the off-cpu
profiling for tasks in the given cgroups only.
The other use case is cgroup sampling which is enabled by
--all-cgroups option and it adds PERF_SAMPLE_CGROUP to the sample_type
to set the cgroup id of the task in the sample data.
Example output.
$ sudo perf record -a --off-cpu --all-cgroups sleep 1
$ sudo perf report --stdio -s comm,cgroup --call-graph=no

Add --off-cpu option to enable the off-cpu profiling with BPF. It'd
use a bpf_output event and rename it to "offcpu-time". Samples will
be synthesized at the end of the record session using data from a BPF
map which contains the aggregated off-cpu time at context switches.
So it needs root privilege to get the off-cpu profiling.
Each sample will have a separate user stacktrace so it will skip
kernel threads. The sample ip will be set from the stacktrace and
other sample data will be updated accordingly. Currently it only
handles some basic sample types.
The sample timestamp is set to a dummy value just not to bother with
other events during the sorting. So it has a very big initial value
and increase it on processing each samples.
Good thing is that it can be used together with regular profiling like
cpu cycles. If you don't want to that, you can use a dummy event to
enable off-cpu profiling only.
Example output:
$ sudo perf record --off-cpu perf bench sched messaging -l 1000
$ sudo perf report --stdio --call-graph=no
# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 41K of event 'cycles'
# Event count (approx.): 42137343851
...
# Samples: 1K of event 'offcpu-time'
# Event count (approx.): 587990831640

As you can see it spent most of off-cpu time in read and write in
bench_sched_messaging(). The --call-graph=no was added just to make
the output concise here.
It uses perf hooks facility to control BPF program during the record
session rather than adding new BPF/off-cpu specific calls.

evlist contains cpus and all_cpus. all_cpus is the union of the cpu maps
of all evsels.
For non-task targets, cpus is set to be cpus requested from the command
line, defaulting to all online cpus if no cpus are specified.
For an uncore event, all_cpus may be just CPU 0 or every online CPU.
This causes all_cpus to have fewer values than the cpus variable which
is confusing given the 'all' in the name.
To try to make the behavior clearer, rename cpus to user_requested_cpus
and add comments on the two struct variables.

Extend --threads option in perf record command line interface.
The option can have a value in the form of masks that specify
CPUs to be monitored with data streaming threads and its layout
in system topology. The masks can be filtered using CPU mask
provided via -C option.
The specification value can be user defined list of masks. Masks
separated by colon define CPUs to be monitored by one thread and
affinity mask of that thread is separated by slash. For example:
<cpus mask 1>/<affinity mask 1>:<cpu mask 2>/<affinity mask 2>
specifies parallel threads layout that consists of two threads
with corresponding assigned CPUs to be monitored.
The specification value can be a string e.g. "cpu", "core" or
"package" meaning creation of data streaming thread for every
CPU or core or package to monitor distinct CPUs or CPUs grouped
by core or package.
The option provided with no or empty value defaults to per-cpu
parallel threads layout creating data streaming thread for every
CPU being monitored.
Document --threads option syntax and parallel data streaming modes
in Documentation/perf-record.txt.

Introduce thread specific data object and array of such objects
to store and manage thread local data. Implement functions to
allocate, initialize, finalize and release thread specific data.
Thread local maps and overwrite_maps arrays keep pointers to
mmap buffer objects to serve according to maps thread mask.
Thread local pollfd array keeps event fds connected to mmaps
buffers according to maps thread mask.
Thread control commands are delivered via thread local comm pipes
and ctlfd_pos fd. External control commands (--control option)
are delivered via evlist ctlfd_pos fd and handled by the main
tool thread.

A common problem is confusing CPU map indices with the CPU, by wrapping
the CPU with a struct then this is avoided. This approach is similar to
atomic_t.
Committer notes:
To make it build with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 these files needed the
conversions to 'struct perf_cpu' usage:
tools/perf/util/bpf_counter.c
tools/perf/util/bpf_counter_cgroup.c
tools/perf/util/bpf_ftrace.c
Also perf_env__get_cpu() was removed back in "perf cpumap: Switch
cpu_map__build_map to cpu function".
Additionally these needed to be fixed for the ARM builds to complete:
tools/perf/arch/arm/util/cs-etm.c
tools/perf/arch/arm64/util/pmu.c

Stephane found that the name of the forked process in a system-wide
mode is wrong when --delay option is used. For example,
# perf record -a --delay=1000 noploop 3
The noploop process will run a busy loop for 3 second. And on an idle
machine it should show up at the top in the perf report. It works
well without the --delay option. But if I add the option, it showed
'perf' not 'noploop'.
# perf report -s comm -q | head -3
52.94% perf
16.65% swapper
12.04% chrome
It turned out that the dummy event didn't work at all and it missed
COMM and MMAP events for the noploop process (and others too). We
should enable the dummy event immediately in system-wide mode, as the
enable-on-exec would work only for task events.
With this change,
# perf report -s comm -q | head -3
52.75% noploop
17.03% swapper
12.83% chrome

The 'perf record' and 'perf stat' commands have supported the option
'-C/--cpus' to count or collect only on the list of CPUs provided. This
option needs to be supported for hybrid as well.
For hybrid support, it needs to check that the cpu list are available
on hybrid PMU. One example for AlderLake, cpu0-7 is 'cpu_core', cpu8-11
is 'cpu_atom'.
Before:
# perf stat -e cpu_core/cycles/ -C11 -- sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 11':
<not supported> cpu_core/cycles/
1.006179431 seconds time elapsed
The 'perf stat' command silently returned "<not supported>" without any
helpful information. It should error out pointing out that that cpu11
was not 'cpu_core'.
After:
# perf stat -e cpu_core/cycles/ -C11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: 11 isn't a 'cpu_core', please use a CPU list in the 'cpu_core' range (0-7)
failed to use cpu list 11
We also need to support the events without pmu prefix specified.
# perf stat -e cycles -C11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: 11 isn't a 'cpu_core', please use a CPU list in the 'cpu_core' range (0-7)
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 11':
1,067,373 cpu_atom/cycles/
1.005544738 seconds time elapsed
The perf tool creates two cycles events automatically, cpu_core/cycles/ and
cpu_atom/cycles/. It checks that cpu11 is not 'cpu_core', then shows a warning
for cpu_core/cycles/ and only count the cpu_atom/cycles/.
If part of cpus are 'cpu_core' and part of cpus are 'cpu_atom', for example,
# perf stat -e cycles -C0,11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: use 0 in 'cpu_core' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.
WARNING: use 11 in 'cpu_atom' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0,11':
1,914,704 cpu_core/cycles/
2,036,983 cpu_atom/cycles/
1.005815641 seconds time elapsed
It now automatically selects cpu0 for cpu_core/cycles/, selects cpu11 for
cpu_atom/cycles/, and output with some warnings.
Some more complex examples,
# perf stat -e cycles,instructions -C0,11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: use 0 in 'cpu_core' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.
WARNING: use 11 in 'cpu_atom' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.

When the input is a regular file but the output is a pipe, it should
write a pipe header. But just repiping would write a portion of the
existing header which is different in 'size' value. So we need to
prevent it and write a new pipe header along with other information
like event attributes and features.
This can handle something like this:
# perf record -a -B sleep 1
# perf inject -b -i perf.data | perf report -i -
Factor out perf_event__synthesize_for_pipe() to be shared between perf
record and inject.

To parse symbols the metadata records, e.g., PERF_RECORD_COMM, which are
generated by the kernel, are required.
To decide whether to generate the metadata records, the kernel relies on
the event_filter_match() to filter the unrelated events.
On a hybrid system, event_filter_match() further checks the CPU mask of
the current enabled PMU. If an event is collected on the CPU which
doesn't have an enabled PMU, it's treated as an unrelated event.
The "big_small_workload" is created in a big core, but runs on a small
core. The metadata records are filtered, because the user only monitors
the PMU of the small core. The big core PMU is not enabled.
For a hybrid system, a dummy event is required to generate the complete
side-band events.

I found that checking cgroup sampling support using the missing features
doesn't work on old kernels. Because it added both attr.cgroup bit and
PERF_SAMPLE_CGROUP bit, it needs to check whichever comes first (usually
the actual event, not dummy).
But it only checks the attr.cgroup bit which is set only in the dummy
event so cannot detect failtures due the sample bits. Also we don't
ignore the missing feature and retry, it'd be better checking it with
the API probing logic.
Committer notes:
Extracted the minimal part to check using the new cgroup API probe

AUX area data is not processed by 'perf record' and consequently the
--timestamp-boundary option may result in no values for "time of first
sample" and "time of last sample". However there are non-sample events
that can be used instead, namely 'itrace_start' and 'aux'.
'itrace_start' is issued before tracing starts, and 'aux' is issued
every time data is ready.
Implement tool callbacks for those two for 'perf record', to update the
timestamp boundary.
Example:
$ perf record -e intel_pt//u --timestamp-boundary uname
Linux
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.022 MB perf.data ]
$ perf script --header-only | grep "time of"
# time of first sample : 4574.835541
# time of last sample : 4574.835907
$ perf script --itrace=be -F-ip | head -1
uname 13752 [001] 4574.835589: 1 branches:uH:
$ perf script --itrace=be -F-ip | tail -1

For perf-record, it would be useful to tell user the pmu which the
event belongs to.
For example,
# perf record -a -- sleep 1
# perf report
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
#
#
# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 106 of event 'cpu_core/cycles/'
# Event count (approx.): 22043448

aux-output events need to have an AUX area event as the group leader.
However, grouping events does not allow the AUX area event to be given
an address filter because the --filter option must come after the event,
which conflicts with the grouping syntax.
To allow filtering in that case, automatically create a group since that
is the requirement anyway.
Example: (requires Intel Tremont)
perf record -c 500 -e 'intel_pt//u' --filter 'filter main @ /bin/ls' -e 'cycles/aux-output/pp' ls

Commit da231338ec ("perf record: Use an eventfd to wakeup when
done") uses eventfd() to solve a rare race where the setting and
checking of 'done' which add done_fd to pollfd. When draining buffer,
revents of done_fd is 0 and evlist__filter_pollfd function returns a
non-zero value. As a result, perf record does not stop profiling.
The following simple scenarios can trigger this condition:
# sleep 10 &
# perf record -p $!
After the sleep process exits, perf record should stop profiling and exit.
However, perf record keeps running.
If pollfd revents contains only POLLERR or POLLHUP, perf record
indicates that buffer is draining and need to stop profiling. Use
fdarray_flag__nonfilterable() to set done eventfd to nonfilterable
objects, so that evlist__filter_pollfd() does not filter and check done
eventfd.

Add a control 'ping' command to detect if perf is up and its control
interface is operational.
It will be used in following daemon patches to synchronize with record
session - when control interface is up and running, we know that perf
record is monitoring and ready to receive signals.
Example session:
terminal 1:
# mkfifo control ack
# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack
terminal 2:
# echo ping > control
# cat ack
ack

Add a new 'evlist' control command to display all the evlist events.
When it is received, perf will scan and print current evlist into perf
record terminal.
The interface string for control file is:
evlist [-v|-g|-F]
The syntax follows perf evlist command:
-F Show just the sample frequency used for each event.
-v Show all fields.
-g Show event group information.
Example session:
terminal 1:
# mkfifo control ack
# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -e '{cycles,instructions}'
terminal 2:
# echo evlist > control
terminal 1:
cycles
instructions
dummy:HG
terminal 2:
# echo 'evlist -v' > control
terminal 1:
cycles: size: 120, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: \
IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, freq: 1, \
sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1
instructions: size: 120, config: 0x1, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, \
sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, inherit: 1, freq: 1, \
sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1
dummy:HG: type: 1, size: 120, config: 0x9, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, \
sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, \
comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1, ksymbol: 1, \
bpf_event: 1
terminal 2:
# echo 'evlist -g' > control
terminal 1:
{cycles,instructions}
dummy:HG
terminal 2:
# echo 'evlist -F' > control
terminal 1:
cycles: sample_freq=4000
instructions: sample_freq=4000
dummy:HG: sample_freq=4000
This new evlist command is handy to get real event names when
wildcards are used.
Adding evsel_fprintf.c object to python/perf.so build, because
it's now evlist.c dependency.
Adding PYTHON_PERF define for python/perf.so compilation, so we
can use it to compile in only evsel__fprintf from evsel_fprintf.c
object.

Adding new control events to enable/disable specific event.
The interface string for control file are:
'enable <EVENT NAME>'
'disable <EVENT NAME>'
when received the command, perf will scan the current evlist
for <EVENT NAME> and if found it's enabled/disabled.
Example session:
terminal 1:
# mkfifo control ack perf.pipe
# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -D -1 --no-buffering -e 'sched:*' -o - > perf.pipe
terminal 2:
# cat perf.pipe | perf --no-pager script -i -
terminal 1:
Events disabled
NOTE Above message will show only after read side of the pipe ('>')
is started on 'terminal 2'. The 'terminal 1's bash does not execute
perf before that, hence the delyaed perf record message.
terminal 3:
# echo 'enable sched:sched_process_fork' > control
terminal 1:
event sched:sched_process_fork enabled
terminal 2:
bash 33349 [034] 149587.674295: sched:sched_process_fork: comm=bash pid=33349 child_comm=bash child_pid=34056
bash 33349 [034] 149588.239521: sched:sched_process_fork: comm=bash pid=33349 child_comm=bash child_pid=34057
terminal 3:
# echo 'enable sched:sched_wakeup_new' > control
terminal 1:
event sched:sched_wakeup_new enabled
terminal 2:
bash 33349 [034] 149632.228023: sched:sched_process_fork: comm=bash pid=33349 child_comm=bash child_pid=34059
bash 33349 [034] 149632.228050: sched:sched_wakeup_new: bash:34059 [120] success=1 CPU:036
bash 33349 [034] 149633.950005: sched:sched_process_fork: comm=bash pid=33349 child_comm=bash child_pid=34060
bash 33349 [034] 149633.950030: sched:sched_wakeup_new: bash:34060 [120] success=1 CPU:036
Committer testing:
If I use 'sched:*' and then enable all events, I can't get 'perf record'
to react to further commands, so I tested it with:
[root@five ~]# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -D -1 --no-buffering -e 'sched:sched_process_*' -o - > perf.pipe
Events disabled
Events enabled
Events disabled
And then it works as expected, so we need to fix this pre-existing
problem.
Another issue, we need to check if a event is already enabled or
disabled and change the message to be clearer, i.e.:
[root@five ~]# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -D -1 --no-buffering -e 'sched:sched_process_*' -o - > perf.pipe
Events disabled
If we receive a 'disable' command, then it should say:
[root@five ~]# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -D -1 --no-buffering -e 'sched:sched_process_*' -o - > perf.pipe
Events disabled
Events already disabled
