- Support instruction latency in 'perf report', with both memory latency (weight) and instruction latency information, users can locate expensive load instructions and understand time spent in different stages. - Extend 'perf c2c' to display the number of loads which were blocked by data or address conflict. - Add 'perf stat' support for L2 topdown events in systems such as Intel's Sapphire rapids server. - Add support for PERF_SAMPLE_CODE_PAGE_SIZE in various tools, as a sort key, for instance: perf report --stdio --sort=comm,symbol,code_page_size - New 'perf daemon' command to run long running sessions while providing a way to control the enablement of events without restarting a traditional 'perf record' session. - Enable counting events for BPF programs in 'perf stat' just like for other targets (tid, cgroup, cpu, etc), e.g.: # perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles -b 254 -I 1000 1.487903822 115,200 ref-cycles 1.487903822 86,012 cycles 2.489147029 80,560 ref-cycles 2.489147029 73,784 cycles ^C# The example above counts 'cycles' and 'ref-cycles' of BPF program of id 254. It is similar to bpftool-prog-profile command, but more flexible. - Support the new layout for PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 to carry the DSO build-id using infrastructure generalised from the eBPF subsystem, removing the need for traversing the perf.data file to collect build-ids at the end of 'perf record' sessions and helping with long running sessions where binaries can get replaced in updates, leading to possible mis-resolution of symbols. - Support filtering by hex address in 'perf script'. - Support DSO filter in 'perf script', like in other perf tools. - Add namespaces support to 'perf inject' - Add support for SDT (Dtrace Style Markers) events on ARM64. perf record: - Fix handling of eventfd() when draining a buffer in 'perf record'. - Improvements to the generation of metadata events for pre-existing threads (mmaps, comm, etc), speeding up the work done at the start of system wide or per CPU 'perf record' sessions. Hardware tracing: - Initial support for tracing KVM with Intel PT. - Intel PT fixes for IPC - Support Intel PT PSB (synchronization packets) events. - Automatically group aux-output events to overcome --filter syntax. - Enable PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_SRC on ARMs SPE. - Update ARM's CoreSight hardware tracing OpenCSD library to v1.0.0. perf annotate TUI: - Fix handling of 'k' ("show line number") hotkey - Fix jump parsing for C++ code. perf probe: - Add protection to avoid endless loop. cgroups: - Avoid reading cgroup mountpoint multiple times, caching it. - Fix handling of cgroup v1/v2 in mixed hierarchy. Symbol resolving: - Add OCaml symbol demangling. - Further fixes for handling PE executables when using perf with Wine and .exe/.dll files. - Fix 'perf unwind' DSO handling. - Resolve symbols against debug file first, to deal with artifacts related to LTO. - Fix gap between kernel end and module start on powerpc. Reporting tools: - The DSO filter shouldn't show samples in unresolved maps. - Improve debuginfod support in various tools. build ids: - Fix 16-byte build ids in 'perf buildid-cache', add a 'perf test' entry for that case. perf test: - Support for PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT. - Add test case for PERF_SAMPLE_CODE_PAGE_SIZE. - Shell based tests for 'perf daemon's commands ('start', 'stop, 'reconfig', 'list', etc). - ARM cs-etm 'perf test' fixes. - Add parse-metric memory bandwidth testcase. Compiler related: - Fix 'perf probe' kretprobe issue caused by gcc 11 bug when used with -fpatchable-function-entry. - Fix ARM64 build with gcc 11's -Wformat-overflow. - Fix unaligned access in sample parsing test. - Fix printf conversion specifier for IP addresses on arm64, s390 and powerpc. Arch specific: - Support exposing Performance Monitor Counter SPRs as part of extended regs on powerpc. - Add JSON 'perf stat' metrics for ARM64's imx8mp, imx8mq and imx8mn DDR, fix imx8mm ones. - Fix common and uarch events for ARM64's A76 and Ampere eMag Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYIAB0WIQR2GiIUctdOfX2qHhGyPKLppCJ+JwUCYDANTQAKCRCyPKLppCJ+ J4veAQCISY1BPHscUTRYhq9cwU/Zs0ImtX7zDT4jxaP39JkduAD/eSqYavAJrtQh HDyEiTgZ7CQSp5eCbXkzrnet4n3G9QE= =H/Jk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v5.12-2020-02-19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux Pull perf tool updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: "New features: - Support instruction latency in 'perf report', with both memory latency (weight) and instruction latency information, users can locate expensive load instructions and understand time spent in different stages. - Extend 'perf c2c' to display the number of loads which were blocked by data or address conflict. - Add 'perf stat' support for L2 topdown events in systems such as Intel's Sapphire rapids server. - Add support for PERF_SAMPLE_CODE_PAGE_SIZE in various tools, as a sort key, for instance: perf report --stdio --sort=comm,symbol,code_page_size - New 'perf daemon' command to run long running sessions while providing a way to control the enablement of events without restarting a traditional 'perf record' session. - Enable counting events for BPF programs in 'perf stat' just like for other targets (tid, cgroup, cpu, etc), e.g.: # perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles -b 254 -I 1000 1.487903822 115,200 ref-cycles 1.487903822 86,012 cycles 2.489147029 80,560 ref-cycles 2.489147029 73,784 cycles ^C The example above counts 'cycles' and 'ref-cycles' of BPF program of id 254.
