Perf cannot parse UPI (Intel's "Ultra Path Interconnect" [1]) events.
# perf stat -e UPI_DATA_BANDWIDTH_TX
event syntax error: 'UPI_DATA_BANDWIDTH_TX'
\___ parser error
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
The JSON lists call the box UPI LL, while perf calls it upi. Add
conversion support to JSON to convert the unit properly.
Committer notes:
[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Ultra_Path_Interconnect
"The Intel Ultra Path Interconnect (UPI) is a point-to-point processor
interconnect developed by Intel which replaced the Intel QuickPath
Interconnect (QPI) in Xeon Skylake-SP platforms starting in 2017.
UPI is a low-latency coherent interconnect for scalable multiprocessor
systems with a shared address space. It uses a directory-based home
snoop coherency protocol with a transfer speed of up to 10.4 GT/s.
Supporting processors typically have two or three UPI links."

With support for Python 2 or 3 and PySide 1 or 2 (Qt 4 or 5), it is
useful to see what versions are in use. Add an 'About' dialog box that
displays Python, PySide, Qt and database server (SQLite or PostgreSQL)
version numbers.
Committer testing:
$ python ~acme/libexec/perf-core/scripts/python/exported-sql-viewer.py ~/c/adrian.hunter/simple-retpoline.db
Then go to 'Help', then 'About', select all the lines with the mouse
press 'Control+C', then, on the same terminal press control+shift+V
which shows my current environment:
Python version: 2.7.16
PySide version: 1
Qt version: 4.8.7
SQLite version: 3.26.0

Icelake and later platforms support collecting XMM registers with PEBS

Add support for 'perf script' to dump them, and support for the register

For now they are just printed in hex, we could potentially later add
other formats too.

When compiled with libunwind, perf does some preparatory work when
processing side-band events. This is not needed when report actually
don't unwind dwarf callchains, so it's disabled with
dwarf_callchain_users bool.
However we could move that check to higher level and shield more
unwanted code for normal report processing, giving us following speed up
on kernel build profile:
Before:
$ perf record make -j40
...
$ ll ../../perf.data
-rw-------. 1 jolsa jolsa 461783932 Apr 26 09:11 perf.data
$ perf stat -e cycles:u,instructions:u perf report -i perf.data > out
Performance counter stats for 'perf report -i perf.data':
78,669,920,155 cycles:u
99,076,431,951 instructions:u # 1.26 insn per cycle
55.382823668 seconds time elapsed
27.512341000 seconds user
27.712871000 seconds sys
After:
$ perf stat -e cycles:u,instructions:u perf report -i perf.data > out
Performance counter stats for 'perf report -i perf.data':
59,626,798,904 cycles:u
88,583,575,849 instructions:u # 1.49 insn per cycle
21.296935559 seconds time elapsed
20.010191000 seconds user
1.202935000 seconds sys
The speed is higher with profile having many side-band events,
because these trigger libunwind preparatory code.
This does not apply for perf compiled with libdw for dwarf unwind,
only for build with libunwind.

The hist__account_cycles() function is executed when the
hist_iter__branch_callback() is called.
But it looks it's not necessary. In hist__account_cycles, it already
walks on all branch entries.
This patch moves the hist__account_cycles out of callback, now the data
processing is much faster than before.
Previous code has an issue that the ch[offset].num++ (in
__symbol__account_cycles) is executed repeatedly since
hist__account_cycles is called in each hist_iter__branch_callback, so
the counting of ch[offset].num is not correct (too big).
With this patch, the issue is fixed. And we don't need the code of
"ch->reset >= ch->num / 2" to check if there are too many overlaps (in
annotation__count_and_fill), otherwise some data would be hidden.
Now, we can try, for example:
perf record -b ...
perf annotate or perf report -s symbol
The before/after output should be no change.
v3:
---
Fix the crash in stdio mode.
Like previous code, it needs the checking of ui__has_annotation()
before hist__account_cycles()
v2:
---
1. Cover the similar perf report
2. Remove the checking code "ch->reset >= ch->num / 2"

The kernel has only two users of proc_do_large_bitmap(), the kernel CPU
watchdog, and the ip_local_reserved_ports. Refer to watchdog_cpumask
and ip_local_reserved_ports in Documentation for further details on
these. When you input a large buffer into these, when it is larger than
PAGE_SIZE- 1, the input data gets misparsed, and the user get
incorrectly informed that the desired input value was set. This commit
implements a test which mimics and exploits that use case, it uses a
bitmap size, as in the watchdog case. The bitmap is used to test the
bitmap proc handler, proc_do_large_bitmap().
The next commit fixes this issue.
