Add support for computing 'perf stat' style metrics in 'perf script'.
When using leader sampling we can get metrics for each sampling period
by computing formulas over the values of the different group members.
This allows things like fine grained IPC tracking through sampling, much
more fine grained than with 'perf stat'.
The metric is still averaged over the sampling period, it is not just
for the sampling point.
This patch adds a new metric output field for 'perf script' that uses
the existing 'perf stat' metrics infrastructure to compute any metrics
supported by 'perf stat'.
For example to sample IPC:
$ perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles,instructions}:S' -a sleep 1
$ perf script -F metric,ip,sym,time,cpu,comm

Minor cleanups
Extra explanation about the use of the term 'averaging', from Andi in the
thread in the Link: tag below:
<quote Andi>
The current samples contains the sum of event counts for a sampling period.
EventA-1 EventA-2 EventA-3 EventA-4
EventB-1 EventB-2 EventC-3
gap with no events overflow
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
period-start period-end
^ ^
| |
previous sample current sample
So EventA = 4 and EventB = 3 at the sample point
I generate a metric, let's say EventA / EventB. It applies to the whole period.
But the metric is over a longer time which does not have the same behavior. For
example the gap above doesn't have any events, while they are clustered at the
beginning and end of the sample period.
But we're summing everything together. The metric doesn't know that the gap is
different than the busy period.
That's what I'm trying to express with averaging.

There are many instructions, esp on PowerPC, whose mnemonics are longer
than 6 characters. Using precision limit causes truncation of such
mnemonics.
Fix this by removing precision limit. Note that, 'width' is still 6, so
alignment won't get affected for length <= 6.

The Intel PMU event aliases have a implicit period= specifier to set the
default period.
Unfortunately this breaks overriding these periods with -c or -F,
because the alias terms look like they are user specified to the
internal parser, and user specified event qualifiers override the
command line options.
Track that they are coming from aliases by adding a "weak" state to the
term. Any weak terms don't override command line options.
I only did it for -c/-F for now, I think that's the only case that's
broken currently.

The evsel->idx field is used mainly to access the right bucket in
per-event arrays such as the annotation ones, but also to set
evsel->tracking, that in turn will decide what of the events will ask
for PERF_RECORD_{MMAP,COMM,EXEC} to be generated, i.e. which
perf_event_attr will have its mmap, etc fields set.
When we were adding the "dummy" event using perf_evlist__add_dummy() we
were not setting it correctly, which could result in multiple tracking
events.
Now that I'll try using a dummy event to be the tracking one when using
'perf record --delay', i.e. when we process the --delay
setting we may already have the evlist set up, like with:
perf record -e cycles,instructions --delay 1000 ./workload
We will need to add a "dummy" event, then reset evsel->tracking for the
first event, "cycles", and set it instead to the dummy one, and also
setting its attr.enable_on_exec, so that we get the PERF_RECORD_MMAP,
etc metadata events while waiting to enable the explicitely requested
events, so lets get this straight and set the right evsel->idx.

Currently when using ordered events we parse the sample twice (the
perf_evlist__parse_sample function). Once before we queue the sample for
sorting:
perf_session__process_event
perf_evlist__parse_sample(sample)
perf_session__queue_event(sample.time)
And then when we deliver the sorted sample:
ordered_events__deliver_event
perf_evlist__parse_sample
perf_session__deliver_event
We can skip the initial full sample parsing by using
perf_evlist__parse_sample_timestamp function, which got introduced
earlier. The new path looks like:
perf_session__process_event
perf_evlist__parse_sample_timestamp
perf_session__queue_event
ordered_events__deliver_event
perf_session__deliver_event
perf_evlist__parse_sample
It saves some instructions and is slightly faster:

There are many instructions, esp on PowerPC, whose mnemonics are longer
than 6 characters. Using precision limit causes truncation of such
mnemonics.
Fix this by removing precision limit. Note that, 'width' is still 6, so
alignment won't get affected for length <= 6.

Use a typed enum for the perf_evsel_config_term type enum. This allows
gcc to do much stronger type checks, and also check for missing case

I removed the unused _MAX member from the number.
It found one missing case. I'm not sure it's a real problem, so I just

The Intel PMU event aliases have a implicit period= specifier to set the
default period.
Unfortunately this breaks overriding these periods with -c or -F,
because the alias terms look like they are user specified to the
internal parser, and user specified event qualifiers override the
command line options.
Track that they are coming from aliases by adding a "weak" state to the
term. Any weak terms don't override command line options.
I only did it for -c/-F for now, I think that's the only case that's
broken currently.

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:
Kernel:
- kprobes updates: use better W^X patterns for code modifications,
improve optprobes, remove jprobes. (Masami Hiramatsu, Kees Cook)
- core fixes: event timekeeping (enabled/running times statistics)
fixes, perf_event_read() locking fixes and cleanups, etc. (Peter
Zijlstra)
- Extend x86 Intel free-running PEBS support and support x86
user-register sampling in perf record and perf script. (Andi Kleen)
Tooling:
- Completely rework the way inline frames are handled. Instead of
querying for the inline nodes on-demand in the individual tools, we
now create proper callchain nodes for inlined frames. (Milian
Wolff)
- 'perf trace' updates (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Implement a way to print formatted output to per-event files in
'perf script' to facilitate generate flamegraphs, elliminating the
need to write scripts to do that separation (yuzhoujian, Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
- Update vendor events JSON metrics for Intel's Broadwell, Broadwell
Server, Haswell, Haswell Server, IvyBridge, IvyTown, JakeTown,
Sandy Bridge, Skylake, SkyLake Server - and Goldmont Plus V1 (Andi
Kleen, Kan Liang)
- Multithread the synthesizing of PERF_RECORD_ events for
pre-existing threads in 'perf top', speeding up that phase, greatly
improving the user experience in systems such as Intel's Knights
Mill (Kan Liang)
- Introduce the concept of weak groups in 'perf stat': try to set up
a group, but if it's not schedulable fallback to not using a group.
That gives us the best of both worlds: groups if they work, but
still a usable fallback if they don't. E.g: (Andi Kleen)

Changing the way the annotation lines are allocated and adding
annotation_line__(new|delete) functions to deal with this.
Before the allocation schema was as follows:
-----------------------------------------------------------
struct disasm_line | struct annotation_line | private space
-----------------------------------------------------------
Where the private space is used in TUI code to store computed
annotation data for events. The stdio code computes the data
on the fly.
The goal is to compute and store annotation line's data directly
in the struct annotation_line itself, so this patch changes the
line allocation schema as follows:
------------------------------------------------------------
privsize space | struct disasm_line | struct annotation_line
------------------------------------------------------------
Moving struct annotation_line to the end, because in following
changes we will move here the non-fixed length event's data.

The evsel->idx field is used mainly to access the right bucket in
per-event arrays such as the annotation ones, but also to set
evsel->tracking, that in turn will decide what of the events will ask
for PERF_RECORD_{MMAP,COMM,EXEC} to be generated, i.e. which
perf_event_attr will have its mmap, etc fields set.
When we were adding the "dummy" event using perf_evlist__add_dummy() we
were not setting it correctly, which could result in multiple tracking
events.
Now that I'll try using a dummy event to be the tracking one when using
'perf record --delay', i.e. when we process the --delay
setting we may already have the evlist set up, like with:
perf record -e cycles,instructions --delay 1000 ./workload
We will need to add a "dummy" event, then reset evsel->tracking for the
first event, "cycles", and set it instead to the dummy one, and also
setting its attr.enable_on_exec, so that we get the PERF_RECORD_MMAP,
etc metadata events while waiting to enable the explicitely requested
events, so lets get this straight and set the right evsel->idx.

It's happening because we put the REJECT under another USER_REJECT macro
in following commit:

Fortunately flex provides option for force it to use REJECT, adding it
to parse-events.l.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

When libbfd is not used, it doesn't show proper function name and reuse
the original symbol of the sample. That's because it passes the
original sym to inline_list__append(). As `addr2line -f` returns
function names as well, use that to create an inline_sym and pass it to
inline_list__append().
For example, following data shows that inlined entries of main have same
name (main).

Milian Wolff found a problem he described in [1] and that for him would
get fixed:
"Note how most of the large offset values are now gone. Most notably, we
get proper srcline resolution for the random.h and complex headers."
Then Namhyung found the root cause:
"I looked into it and found a bug handling cumulative (children)
entries. For children entries that have no self period, the al->addr (so
he->ip) ends up having an doubly-mapped address.
It seems to be there from the beginning but only affects entries that
have no srclines - finding srcline itself is done using a different
address but it will show the invalid address if no srcline was found. I
think we should fix the commit c7405d85d7 ("perf tools: Update cpumode
for each cumulative entry")."

We have defined YY_USER_ACTION to keep trace of the column location
during events parsing, but we need to clean it up when we call REJECT.
When REJECT is called, the lexer shrinks the text and re-runs the
matching, so we need to address it in resuming the previous location
value to keep it correct for error display, like:

Perf top is often crashing at very random locations on powerpc. After
investigating, I found the crash only happens when sample is of zero
length symbol. Powerpc kernel has many such symbols which does not
contain length details in vmlinux binary and thus start and end
addresses of such symbols are same.
Structure
struct sym_hist {
u64 nr_samples;
u64 period;
struct sym_hist_entry addr[0];
};
has last member 'addr[]' of size zero. 'addr[]' is an array of addresses
that belongs to one symbol (function). If function consist of 100
instructions, 'addr' points to an array of 100 'struct sym_hist_entry'
elements. For zero length symbol, it points to the *empty* array, i.e.
no members in the array and thus offset 0 is also invalid for such
array.
static int __symbol__inc_addr_samples(...)
{
...
offset = addr - sym->start;
h = annotation__histogram(notes, evidx);
h->nr_samples++;
h->addr[offset].nr_samples++;
h->period += sample->period;
h->addr[offset].period += sample->period;
...
}
Here, when 'addr' is same as 'sym->start', 'offset' becomes 0, which is
valid for normal symbols but *invalid* for zero length symbols and thus
updating h->addr[offset] causes memory corruption.
Fix this by adding one dummy element for zero length symbols.

Note that the difference is only this large when `--inline` is not
passed. In such situations, we would use the inliner cache and thus do
not run this code path that often.
I think that this cache should actually be used in other places, too.
When looking at the valgrind leak report for perf report, we see tons of
srclines being leaked, most notably from calls to
hist_entry__get_srcline. The problem is that get_srcline has many
different formatting options (show_sym, show_addr, potentially even
unwind_inlines when calling __get_srcline directly). As such, the
srcline cannot easily be cached for all calls, or we'd have to add
caches for all formatting combinations (6 so far). An alternative would
be to remove the formatting options and handle that on a different level
- i.e. print the sym/addr on demand wherever we actually output
something. And the unwind_inlines could be moved into a separate
function that does not return the srcline.

When no inlined frames could be found for a given address, we did not
store this information anywhere. That means we potentially do the costly
inliner lookup repeatedly for cases where we know it can never succeed.
This patch makes dso__parse_addr_inlines always return a valid
inline_node. It will be empty when no inliners are found. This enables
us to cache the empty list in the DSO, thereby improving the performance
when many addresses fail to find the inliners.
For my trivial example, the performance impact is already quite
significant:

Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
churn.
However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
coccinelle script:

// WRITE_ONCE()

The original patch that introduced inline frame output in the various
browsers used this suffix already. The new centralized approach that
uses fake symbols for inlined frames was missing this approach so far.
Instead of changing the symbol name itself, we only print the suffix
where needed. This allows us to efficiently lookup the symbol for a
given name without first having to append the suffix before the lookup.

When a callchain entry has no srcline available, we ended up comparing
the instruction pointer. I consider this to be not too useful. Rather, I
think we should group the entries by function name, which this patch
adds. For people who want to split the data on the IP boundary, using
`-g address` is the correct choice.

The inline_node structs are maintained by the new dso->inlines tree.
This in turn keeps ownership of the fake symbols and srcline string
representing an inline frame.
This tree is sorted by address to allow quick lookups. All other entries
of the symbol beside the function name are unused for inline frames. The
advantage of this approach is that all existing users of the callchain
API can now transparently display inlined frames without having to patch
their code.

This is a preparation for the creation of real callchain entries for
inlined frames. The rest of the perf code uses the srcline string. As
such, using that also for the srcline API allows us to simplify some of
the upcoming code. Most notably, it will allow us to cache the srcline
for a given inline node and reuse it for different callchain entries.

This is a requirement to create real callchain entries for inlined
frames.
Since the list of inlines usually contains the target symbol too, i.e.
the location where the frames get inlined to, we alias that symbol and
reuse it as-is is. This ensures that other dependent functionality keeps
working, most notably annotation of the target frames.
For all other entries in the inline_list, a fake symbol is created.
These are marked by new 'inlined' member which is set to true. Only
those symbols are managed by the inline_list and get freed when the
inline_list is deleted from within inline_node__delete.

This is mostly a preparation to enable the creation of full callchain
nodes for inline frames. Such frames will reference the IP of the
non-inlined frame, but hold the symbol and srcline for an inlined
location. As such, we won't be able to query the srcline on-demand based
on the IP alone. Instead, we will leverage the functionality provided by
this patch here, and store the srcline for the inlined nodes in the new
srcline member of callchain_cursor_node.
Note that this patch on its own leaks the srcline, as there is no
free_callchain_cursor_node or similar. A future patch will add caching
of the srcline and handle deletion properly.

In current xyarray code, xyarray__max_x() returns max_y, and xyarray__max_y()
returns max_x.
It's confusing and for code logic it looks not correct.
Error happens when closing evsel fd. Let's see this scenario:
1. Allocate an fd (pseudo-code)
perf_evsel__alloc_fd(struct perf_evsel *evsel, int ncpus, int nthreads)
{
evsel->fd = xyarray__new(ncpus, nthreads, sizeof(int));
}
xyarray__new(int xlen, int ylen, size_t entry_size)
{
size_t row_size = ylen * entry_size;
struct xyarray *xy = zalloc(sizeof(*xy) + xlen * row_size);
xy->entry_size = entry_size;
xy->row_size = row_size;
xy->entries = xlen * ylen;
xy->max_x = xlen;
xy->max_y = ylen;
......
}
So max_x is ncpus, max_y is nthreads and row_size = nthreads * 4.
2. Use perf syscall and get the fd
int perf_evsel__open(struct perf_evsel *evsel, struct cpu_map *cpus,
struct thread_map *threads)
{
for (cpu = 0; cpu < cpus->nr; cpu++) {
for (thread = 0; thread < nthreads; thread++) {
int fd, group_fd;
fd = sys_perf_event_open(&evsel->attr, pid, cpus->map[cpu],
group_fd, flags);
FD(evsel, cpu, thread) = fd;
}
}
static inline void *xyarray__entry(struct xyarray *xy, int x, int y)
{
return &xy->contents[x * xy->row_size + y * xy->entry_size];
}
These codes don't have issues. The issue happens in the closing of fd.
3. Close fd.
void perf_evsel__close_fd(struct perf_evsel *evsel)
{
int cpu, thread;
for (cpu = 0; cpu < xyarray__max_x(evsel->fd); cpu++)
for (thread = 0; thread < xyarray__max_y(evsel->fd); ++thread) {
close(FD(evsel, cpu, thread));
FD(evsel, cpu, thread) = -1;
}
}
Since xyarray__max_x() returns max_y (nthreads) and xyarry__max_y()
returns max_x (ncpus), so above code is actually to be:
for (cpu = 0; cpu < nthreads; cpu++)
for (thread = 0; thread < ncpus; ++thread) {
close(FD(evsel, cpu, thread));
FD(evsel, cpu, thread) = -1;
}
It's not correct!
This change is introduced by "475fb533fb7d" ("perf evsel: Fix buffer overflow
while freeing events")
This fix is to let xyarray__max_x() return max_x (ncpus) and
let xyarry__max_y() return max_y (nthreads)

Thomas reported that 'perf buildid-list' gets a SEGFAULT due to NULL
pointer deref when he ran it on a data with namespace events. It was
because the buildid_id__mark_dso_hit_ops lacks the namespace event
handler and perf_too__fill_default() didn't set it.
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Fix it by adding a stub event handler for namespace event.

It is only when one asks for checking what of those entries actually had
samples, i.e. when we use either -H or --with-hits, that we will process
all the PERF_RECORD_ events, and since tools/perf/builtin-buildid-list.c
neither explicitely set a perf_tool.namespaces() callback nor the
default stub was set that we end up, when processing a
PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACE record, causing a SEGFAULT:

as eBPF input file. This way we can differentiate eBPF events
from events that end up with same suffix as eBPF file.

WARNING: unable to get correct kernel building directory.
Hint: Set correct kbuild directory using 'kbuild-dir' option in [llvm]
section of ~/.perfconfig or set it to "" to suppress kbuild
detection.

Currently, perf record is broken on arm/arm64 systems when the PMU is
specified explicitly as part of the event, e.g.
$ ./perf record -e armv8_cortex_a53/cpu_cycles/u true
In such cases, perf record fails to open events unless
perf_event_paranoid is set to -1, even if the PMU in question supports
mode exclusion. Further, even when perf_event_paranoid is toggled, no
samples are recorded.
This is an unintended side effect of commit:
e3ba76deef ("perf tools: Force uncore events to system wide monitoring)
... which assumes that if a PMU has an associated cpu_map, it is an
uncore PMU, and forces events for such PMUs to be system-wide.
This is not true for arm/arm64 systems, which can have heterogeneous
CPUs. To account for this, multiple CPU PMUs are exposed, each with a
"cpus" field under sysfs, which the perf tool parses into a cpu_map. ARM
PMUs do not have a "cpumask" file, and only have a "cpus" file. For the
gory details as to why, see commit:
7e3fcffe95 ("perf pmu: Support alternative sysfs cpumask")
Given all of this, we can instead identify uncore PMUs by explicitly
checking for a "cpumask" file, and restore arm/arm64 PMU support back to
a working state. This patch does so, adding a new perf_pmu::is_uncore
field, and splitting the existing cpumask parsing so that it can be
reused.

Two functions from different binaries can have same start address. Thus,
comparing only start address in match_chain() leads to inconsistent
callchains. Fix this by adding a check for dsos as well.

The proc files which is sorted with alphabetical order are evenly
assigned to several synthesize threads to be processed in parallel.
For 'perf top', the threads number hard code to online CPU number. The
following patch will introduce an option to set it.
For other perf tools, the thread number is 1. Because the process
function is not ready for multithreading, e.g.
process_synthesized_event.
This patch series only support event synthesize multithreading for 'perf
top'. For other tools, it can be done separately later.
With multithread applied, the total processing time can get up to 1.56x
speedup on Knights Mill for 'perf top'.
For specific single event processing, the processing time could increase
because of the lock contention. So proc_map_timeout may need to be
increased. Otherwise some proc maps will be truncated.
Based on my test, increasing the proc_map_timeout has small impact
on the total processing time. The total processing time still get 1.49x
speedup on Knights Mill after increasing the proc_map_timeout.
The patch itself doesn't increase the proc_map_timeout.
Doesn't need to implement multithreading for per task monitoring,
perf_event__synthesize_thread_map. It doesn't have performance issue.
