For the syntax examples,
perf config [<file-option>] [section.name ...]
e.g. To query config items 'report.queue-size' and 'report.children', do

In ac12f6764c ("perf tools: Implement branch_type event parameter") we
started using the parse_branch_str() function from one of the files used
in the python binding, which caused this entry in 'perf test' to fail:

I must've commited some mistake when running 'perf test' to send the

Just add tools/perf/util/parse-branch-options.c and switch from using
ui__warning(), that is not available in the python binding, use
pr_warning() instead, which is good enough for this case.

Joonwoo reported that there's a mismatch between timestamps in script
and sched commands. This was because of difference in printing the
timestamp. Factor out the code and share it so that they can be in
sync. Also I found that sched map has similar problem, fix it too.
Committer notes:
Fixed the max_lat_at bug introduced by Namhyung's original patch, as
pointed out by Joonwoo, and made it a function following the scnprintf()
model, i.e. returning the number of bytes formatted, and receiving as
the first parameter the object from where the data to the formatting is
obtained, renaming it from:
char *timestamp_in_usec(char *bf, size_t size, u64 timestamp)
to
int timestamp__scnprintf_usec(u64 timestamp, char *bf, size_t size)

I'd like to see the name of tasks with perf sched map, but it only shows
name of new tasks and then use short names after all. This is not good
for long running tasks since it's hard for users to track the short
names. This patch makes it show the names (except the idle task) when
-v option is used. Probably we may make it as default behavior.

The -i and -v options can be used in subcommands so enable cascading the
sched_options. This fixes the following inconvenience in 'perf sched':

... (it works well) ...
$ perf sched map -i perf.data.sched
Error: unknown switch `i'
Usage: perf sched map [<options>]
--color-cpus <cpus>
highlight given CPUs in map
--color-pids <pids>
highlight given pids in map
--compact map output in compact mode
--cpus <cpus> display given CPUs in map

The perf report/top on TUI supports horizontal scrolling using LEFT and
RIGHT keys.
But it calculate the number of columns incorrectly when hierarchy mode
is enabled so that keep pressing RIGHT key can make the output
disappeared.
In the hierarchy mode, all sort keys are collapsed into a single column,
so it needs to be applied when calculating column numbers.

Sebastian noted that overhead for worker thread ops (throughput)
accounting was producing 'perf' to appear in the profiles, consuming a
non-trivial (i.e. 13%) amount of CPU.
This is due to cacheline bouncing due to the increment of w->ops.
We can easily fix this by just working on a local copy and updating the
actual worker once done running, and ready to show the program summary.
There is no danger of the worker being concurrent, so we can trust that
no stale value is being seen by another thread.
This also gets rid of the unnecessary cache alignment hack; its not
worth it.

It popped up in perf testing that the worker consumes some amount of
CPU. It boils down to the increment of `ops` which causes cache line
bouncing between the individual threads.
This patch aligns the struct by 256 bytes to ensure that not a cache
line is shared among CPUs. 128 byte is the x86 worst case and grep says
that L1_CACHE_SHIFT is set to 8 on s390.

In the perf wiki todo-list[1], there is an entry regarding initial-delay
and 'perf trace'; the following small patch tries to fulfill this point.
It has been generated against the branch tip/perf/core.
It has only been implemented in the "trace__run" case.
Ex.:
$ sudo strace -- ./perf trace --delay 5 sleep 1 2>&1
...
fcntl(7, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 0
ioctl(7, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID, 0x7ffc8fd35718) = 0
ioctl(11, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT, 0x7) = 0
fcntl(11, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 0
ioctl(11, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID, 0x7ffc8fd35718) = 0
write(6, "\0", 1) = 1
close(6) = 0
nanosleep({0, 5000000}, NULL) = 0 # DELAY OF 5 MS BEFORE ENABLING THE EVENTS
ioctl(3, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, 0) = 0
ioctl(4, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, 0) = 0
ioctl(5, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, 0) = 0
ioctl(7, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, 0) = 0

Here is a small patch which tries to fulfill a point in the perf todo
list:
* Make pressing 'V' multiple times to go on cycling thru various
verbosity levels in 'perf top', so that info that is present in
'perf top -v' can be obtained without having to restart the tool
(acme).
After a small grep in the code, the max verbosity level seems 3; so,
we cycle at 4; I did not dare define a MAX_VERBOSE_LEVEL constant.

When the jit_buf_desc contains unwinding information, it is emitted as
eh_frame unwinding sections in the DSOs generated by perf inject.
The unwinding information is required to unwind of JITed code which do
not maintain the frame pointer register during function calls. It can
be emitted by V8 / Chromium when the --perf_prof_unwinding_info is
passed to V8.
The eh_frame and eh_frame_hdr sections are emitted immediately after the
.text.
The .eh_frame is aligned at a 8-byte boundary, and .eh_frame_hdr at a
4-byte one. Since size of the .eh_frame is required to be a multiple of
the word size, which means there will never be additional padding
between it and the .eh_frame_hdr on machines where the word size is 4 or
8 bytes.
However, additional padding might be inserted between .text and
.eh_frame to reach the correct alignment, which will always be 8 bytes,
also on 32bit machines. The reasoning behind this choice is that 4 extra
bytes of padding worst case are not a large cost for the advantage of
removing word-size dependent offset calculations when emitting the
jitdump.

This record is intended to provide unwinding information in the
eh_frame format. This is required to unwind JITed code which
does not maintain the frame pointer register during function calls.
The eh_frame unwinding information can be emitted by V8 / Chromium
when the --perf_prof_unwinding_info is passed.
A record of type jr_code_unwinding_info comes before the jr_code_load
it referred to and contains both the .eh_frame and .eh_frame_hdr.
The fields in the header have the following meaning:
* unwinding_size: size of the eh_frame and eh_frame_hdr, necessary
for distinguishing the content from the padding.
* eh_frame_hdr_size: as the name says.
* mapped_size: size of the payload that was in memory at runtime.
typically unwinding_size if the .eh_frame_hdr and .eh_frame were
mapped, or 0 if they weren't. It should always be the former case,
since the .eh_frame is guaranteed to be mapped in memory. However,
certain JITs might want to inject an .eh_frame_hdr with an empty LUT
to trigger fp-based unwinding fallback in libunwind. The only part
of the .eh_frame_hdr that libunwind reads from remote memory is the
LUT, and since there is none, mapping the unwinding info in memory
is not necessary, and 0 in this field signifies that it wasn't.
This practical hack allows to save bytes in code memory for those
JIT compilers that might or might not maintain a valid frame pointer.
The payload that follows is assumed to contain first the .eh_frame and
then the .eh_header_hdr, with no padding between the two.

The behavior before this commit was to skip the remaining portion of the
jitdump in case an unknown record was found, including those records
that perf could handle.
With this change, parsing a record with an unknown id will cause a
warning to be emitted, the record will be skipped and parsing will
resume from the next (valid) one.
The patch aims at making perf more future proof, by extracting as much
information as possible from jitdumps.

This patch modifies the build dependencies on the jitdump support in
perf. As it stands jitdump was wrongfully made dependent 100% on using
DWARF. However, the dwarf dependency, only exist if generating the
source line table in genelf_debug.c. The rest of the support does not
need DWARF.
This patch removes the dependency on DWARF for the entire jitdump
support. It keeps it only for the genelf_debug.c support.

This file, genelf.c, wasn't being built for several systems, because
it mistakenly was conditional on some DWARF features, now that it
is just needing libelf, after "perf jit: Enable jitdump support without

So, as preparation for "perf jit: Enable jitdump support without dwarf",
conditionally define it, if not available.

It can be useful to specify branch type state per event, for example if
we want to collect both software trace points and last branch PMU events
in a single collection. Currently this doesn't work because the software
trace point errors out with -b.
There was already a branch-type parameter to configure branch sample
types per event in the parser, but it was stubbed out. This patch
implements the necessary plumbing to actually enable it.
Now:
$ perf record -e sched:sched_switch,cpu/cpu-cycles,branch_type=any/ ...
works.
