e16c2ce7c5 perf record: Fix continue profiling after draining the buffer
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.

Fixes: da231338ec ("perf record: Use an eventfd to wakeup when done")

47fddcb479 perf tools: Add 'ping' control command
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

f186cd6148 perf tools: Add 'stop' control command
Adding control 'stop' command to stop perf record.

When it is received, perf will set the 'done' variable to 1 to stop its
mmap ring buffer reading loop.

Example session:

    # perf record --control=fifo:control,ack

  terminal 2:
    # echo stop > control

  terminal 1:

142544a938 perf tools: Add 'evlist' control command
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.

991ae4eb36 perf tools: Allow to enable/disable events via control file
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

e29386c8f7 perf record: Add --buildid-mmap option to enable PERF_RECORD_MMAP2's build id
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.

Committer testing:

  $ perf record -h build

   Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
      or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

      -B, --no-buildid      do not collect buildids in perf.data
      -N, --no-buildid-cache
                            do not update the buildid cache
          --buildid-all     Record build-id of all DSOs regardless of hits
          --buildid-mmap    Record build-id in map events

  $

  $ perf record --buildid-mmap sleep 1
  Failed: no support to record build id in mmap events, update your kernel.

1101c872c8 perf record: Skip side-band event setup if HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT is not set
We received an error report that perf-record caused 'Segmentation fault'
on a newly system (e.g. on the new installed ubuntu).

  (gdb) backtrace
  #0  __read_once_size (size=4, res=<synthetic pointer>, p=0x14) at /root/0-jinyao/acme/tools/include/linux/compiler.h:139

  #6  0x00007fad7823c103 in clone () at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/clone.S:95

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
  Obtained 6 stack frames.

  /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(clone+0x43) [0x7fbfdc73b103]
  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.

d1e325cf40 perf header: Store clock references for -k/--clockid option
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.

Committer testing:

  $ perf record -h -k

   Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
      or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

442ad2254a perf record: Fix duplicated sideband events with Intel PT system wide tracing
Commit 0a892c1c94 ("perf record: Add dummy event during system wide
synthesis") reveals an issue with Intel PT system wide tracing.
Specifically that Intel PT already adds a dummy tracking event, and it
is not the first event.  Adding another dummy tracking event causes
duplicated sideband events.  Fix by checking for an existing dummy
tracking event first.

Example showing duplicated switch events:

7094349078 perf tools: Add optional support for libpfm4
This patch links perf with the libpfm4 library if it is available and
LIBPFM4 is passed to the build. The libpfm4 library contains hardware
event tables for all processors supported by perf_events. It is a helper
library that helps convert from a symbolic event name to the event
encoding required by the underlying kernel interface. This library is
open-source and available from: http://perfmon2.sf.net.

With this patch, it is possible to specify full hardware events by name.
Hardware filters are also supported. Events must be specified via the
--pfm-events and not -e option. Both options are active at the same time
and it is possible to mix and match:

  $ perf stat --pfm-events inst_retired:any_p:c=1:i -e cycles ....

One needs to explicitely ask for its inclusion by using the LIBPFM4 make
command line option, ie its opt-in rather than opt-out of feature
detection and build support.

16b4b4e1a0 perf record: Respect --no-switch-events
Context switch events are added automatically by Intel PT and Coresight.

Make it possible to suppress them. That is useful for tracing the
scheduler without the disturbance that the switch event processing
creates.

Example:

  Prerequisites:

    $ which perf
    ~/bin/perf
    $ sudo setcap "cap_sys_rawio,cap_sys_admin,cap_sys_ptrace,cap_syslog,cap_ipc_lock=ep" ~/bin/perf
    $ sudo chmod +r /proc/kcore

  Before:

    $ perf record --no-switch-events --kcore -a -e intel_pt//k -- sleep 0.001
    [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.938 MB perf.data ]
    $ perf script -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SWITCH | wc -l
    572

  After:

    $ perf record --no-switch-events --kcore -a -e intel_pt//k -- sleep 0.001
    Warning:
    Intel Processor Trace decoding will not be possible except for kernel tracing!
    [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.838 MB perf.data ]
    $ perf script -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SWITCH | wc -l
    0

    $ sudo chmod go-r /proc/kcore
    $ sudo setcap -r ~/bin/perf

da231338ec perf record: Use an eventfd to wakeup when done
The setting and checking of 'done' contains a rare race where the signal
handler setting 'done' is run after checking to break the loop, but
before waiting in evlist__poll(). In this case, the main loop won't wake
up until either another signal is sent, or the perf data fd causes a
wake up.

The following simple script can trigger this condition (but you might
need to run it for several hours):

for ((i = 0; i >= 0; i++)) ; do
  echo "Loop $i"
  delay=$(echo "scale=4; 0.1 * $RANDOM/32768" | bc)
  ./perf record -- sleep 30000000 >/dev/null&
  pid=$!
  sleep $delay
  kill -TERM $pid
  echo "PID $pid"
  wait $pid
done

At some point, the loop will stall. Adding logging, even though perf has
received the SIGTERM and set 'done = 1', perf will remain sleeping until
a second signal is sent.

Committer notes:

Make this dependent on HAVE_EVENTFD_SUPPORT, so that we continue
building on older systems without the eventfd syscall.

0a892c1c94 perf record: Add dummy event during system wide synthesis
During the processing of /proc during event synthesis new processes may
start. Add a dummy event if /proc is to be processed, to capture mmaps
for starting processes. This reuses the existing logic for
initial-delay.

v3 fixes the attr test of test-record-C0
v2 fixes the dummy event configuration and a branch stack issue.

899e5ffbf2 perf record: Introduce --switch-output-event
Now we can use it with --overwrite to have a flight recorder mode that
gets snapshot requests from arbitrary events that are processed in the
side band thread together with the PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT processing.

Example:

To collect scheduler events until a recvmmsg syscall happens, system
wide:

  [root@five a]# rm -f perf.data.2020042717*
  [root@five a]# perf record --overwrite -e sched:*switch,syscalls:*recvmmsg --switch-output-event syscalls:sys_enter_recvmmsg
  [ perf record: dump data: Woken up 1 times ]
  [ perf record: Dump perf.data.2020042717585458 ]
  [ perf record: dump data: Woken up 1 times ]
  [ perf record: Dump perf.data.2020042717590235 ]
  [ perf record: dump data: Woken up 1 times ]
  [ perf record: Dump perf.data.2020042717590398 ]
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Dump perf.data.2020042717590511 ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 7.244 MB perf.data.<timestamp> ]

So in the above case we had 3 snapshots, the fourth was forced by
control+C:

  [root@five a]# ls -la
  total 20440
  drwxr-xr-x.  2 root root    4096 Apr 27 17:59 .
  dr-xr-x---. 12 root root    4096 Apr 27 17:46 ..
  -rw-------.  1 root root 3936125 Apr 27 17:58 perf.data.2020042717585458
  -rw-------.  1 root root 5074869 Apr 27 17:59 perf.data.2020042717590235
  -rw-------.  1 root root 4291037 Apr 27 17:59 perf.data.2020042717590398
  -rw-------.  1 root root 7617037 Apr 27 17:59 perf.data.2020042717590511
  [root@five a]#

One can make this more precise by adding the switch output event to the
main -e events list, as since this is done asynchronously, a few events
after the signal event will appear in the snapshots, as can be seen
with:

  [root@five a]# rm -f perf.data.20200427175*
  [root@five a]# perf record --overwrite -e sched:*switch,syscalls:*recvmmsg --switch-output-event syscalls:sys_enter_recvmmsg

d99c22eabe perf record: Add num-synthesize-threads option
To control degree of parallelism of the synthesize_mmap() code which
is scanning /proc/PID/task/PID/maps and can be time consuming.
Mimic perf top way of handling the option.
If not specified will default to 1 thread, i.e. default behavior before
this option.

On a desktop computer the processing of /proc/PID/task/PID/maps isn't
slow enough to warrant parallel processing and the thread creation has
some cost - hence the default of 1. On a loaded server with
>100 cores it is possible to see synthesis times in the order of
seconds and in this case having the option is desirable.

As the processing is a synchronization point, it is legitimate to worry if
Amdahl's law will apply to this patch. Profiling with this patch in
place:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200415054050.31645-4-irogers@google.com/
shows:
...
      - 32.59% __perf_event__synthesize_threads
         - 32.54% __event__synthesize_thread
            + 22.13% perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events
            + 6.68% perf_event__get_comm_ids.constprop.0
            + 1.49% process_synthesized_event
            + 1.29% __GI___readdir64
            + 0.60% __opendir
...
That is the processing is 1.49% of execution time and there is plenty to
make parallel. This is shown in the benchmark in this patch:

     Average time per event 2.269 usec

Where average time per synthesized event goes from 5.927 usec with 1
thread to 2.269 usec with 8. This isn't a linear speed up as not all of
synthesize code has been made parallel. If the synthesis time was about
10 seconds then using 8 threads may bring this down to less than 4.
