The PERF_RECORD_AUX_OUTPUT_HW_ID event provides a way to match AUX output
data like Intel PT PEBS-via-PT back to the event that it came from, by
providing a hardware ID that is present in the AUX output.

Add an option to control the synthesizing behavior.
--synth <no|all|task|mmap|cgroup>
Fine-tune event synthesis: default=all
This can be useful when we know it doesn't need some synthesis like
in a specific usecase and/or when using pipe:
$ perf record -a --all-cgroups --synth cgroup -o- sleep 1 | \
> perf report -i- -s cgroup
Committer notes:
Added a clarification to the man page entry for --synth that this is
about pre-existing threads.

Depending on the use case, it might require some kind of synthesizing
and some not. Make it controllable to turn off heavy operations like
MMAP for all tasks.
Currently all users are converted to enable all the synthesis by
default. It'll be updated in the later patch.

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.

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.

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
routine, the part that removes the cgroup member can be left for further
discussion.

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

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 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

Add --buildid-mmap option to enable build id in PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 events.
It will only work if there's kernel support for that and it disables
build id cache (implies --no-buildid).
It's also possible to enable it permanently via config option in
~/.perfconfig file:
[record]
build-id=mmap
Also added build_id bit in the verbose output for perf_event_attr:
# perf record --buildid-mmap -vv
...
perf_event_attr:
type 1
size 120
...
build_id 1
Adding also missing text_poke bit.

The root cause is, evlist__add_bpf_sb_event() just returns 0 if
HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT is not defined (inline function path). So it will
not create a valid evsel for side-band event.
But perf-record still creates BPF side band thread to process the
side-band event, then the error happpens.
We can reproduce this issue by removing the libelf-dev. e.g.
1. apt-get remove libelf-dev
2. perf record -a -- sleep 1
root@test:~# ./perf record -a -- sleep 1
perf: Segmentation fault

Segmentation fault (core dumped)
To fix this issue,
1. We either install the missing libraries to let HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT
be defined.
e.g. apt-get install libelf-dev and install other related libraries.
2. Use this patch to skip the side-band event setup if HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT
is not set.
Committer notes:
The side band thread is not used just with BPF, it is also used with
--switch-output-event, so narrow the ifdef to the BPF specific part.
Fixes: 23cbb41c93 ("perf record: Move side band evlist setup to separate routine")

Add a new CLOCK_DATA feature that stores reference times when
-k/--clockid option is specified.
It contains the clock id and its reference time together with wall clock
time taken at the 'same time', both values are in nanoseconds.
The format of data is as below:
struct {
u32 version; /* version = 1 */
u32 clockid;
u64 wall_clock_ns;
u64 clockid_time_ns;
};
This clock reference times will be used in following changes to display
wall clock for perf events.
It's available only for recording with clockid specified, because it's
the only case where we can get reference time to wallclock time. It's
can't do that with perf clock yet.

Move parse_clockid and all needed clcckid related stuff into clockid

so it's better it's placed in separated object and not in
builtin-record.c.
No functional change is intended.
