Pull x86 asm changes from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest changes in this cycle were:
- Revamp, simplify (and in some cases fix) Time Stamp Counter (TSC)
primitives. (Andy Lutomirski)
- Add new, comprehensible entry and exit handlers written in C.
(Andy Lutomirski)
- vm86 mode cleanups and fixes. (Brian Gerst)
- 32-bit compat code cleanups. (Brian Gerst)
The amount of simplification in low level assembly code is already
palpable:
arch/x86/entry/entry_32.S | 130 +----
arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S | 197 ++-----
but more simplifications are planned.
There's also the usual laudry mix of low level changes - see the
changelog for details"

- Add support for using several Intel PT features (CYC, MTC packets),
the relevant documentation was updated in:
tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt
briefly describing those packets, its purposes, how to configure
them in the event config terms and relevant external documentation
for further reading. (Adrian Hunter)
- Introduce support for probing at an absolute address, for user and
kernel 'perf probe's, useful when one have the symbol maps on a
developer machine but not on an embedded system. (Wang Nan)
- Add Intel BTS support, with a call-graph script to show it and PT
in use in a GUI using 'perf script' python scripting with
postgresql and Qt. (Adrian Hunter)
- Allow selecting the type of callchains per event, including
disabling callchains in all but one entry in an event list, to save
space, and also to ask for the callchains collected in one event to
be used in other events. (Kan Liang)
- Beautify more syscall arguments in 'perf trace': (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)
* A bunch more translate file/pathnames from pointers to strings.
* Convert numbers to strings for the 'keyctl' syscall 'option'
arg.
* Add missing 'clockid' entries.
- Introduce 'srcfile' sort key: (Andi Kleen)
# perf record -F 10000 usleep 1
# perf report --stdio --dsos '[kernel.vmlinux]' -s srcfile
<SNIP>
# Overhead Source File
26.49% copy_page_64.S
5.49% signal.c
0.51% msr.h
#
It can be combined with other fields, for instance, experiment with
'-s srcfile,symbol'.
There are some oddities in some distros and with some specific
DSOs, being investigated, so your mileage may vary.
- Support per-event 'freq' term: (Namhyung Kim)
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,freq=1234/',cycles -c 1000 sleep 1
$ perf evlist -F
cpu/instructions,freq=1234/: sample_freq=1234
cycles: sample_period=1000
$
- Deref sys_enter pointer args with contents from probe:vfs_getname,
showing pathnames instead of pointers in many syscalls in 'perf
trace'. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Stop collecting /proc/kallsyms in perf.data files, saving about
4.5MB on a typical x86-64 system, use the the symbol resolution
routines used in all the other tools (report, top, etc) now that we
can ask libtraceevent to use perf's symbol resolution code.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Allow filtering out of perf's PID via 'perf record --exclude-perf'.
(Wang Nan)
- 'perf trace' now supports syscall groups, like strace, i.e:
$ trace -e file touch file
Will expand 'file' into multiple, file related, syscalls. More
work needed to add extra groups for other syscall groups, and also
to complement what was added for the 'file' group, included as a
proof of concept. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Add lock_pi stresser to 'perf bench futex', to test the kernel code
related to FUTEX_(UN)LOCK_PI. (Davidlohr Bueso)
- Let user have timestamps with per-thread recording in 'perf record'
(Adrian Hunter)
- ... and tons of other changes, see the shortlog and the Git log for
details"

This patch creates a new script (compaction-times) to report time
spent in mm compaction. It is possible to report times in nanoseconds
(default) or microseconds (-u).
The option -p will break down results by process id, -pv will further
decompose by each compaction entry/exit.
For each compaction entry/exit what is reported is controlled by the
options:
-t report only timing
-m report migration stats
-ms report migration scanner stats
-fs report free scanner stats
The default is to report all.
Entries may be further filtered by pid, pid-range or comm (regex).
The script is useful when analysing workloads that compact memory. The
most common example will be THP allocations on systems with a lot of
uptime that has fragmented memory.
This is an example of using the script to analyse a thpscale from
mmtests which deliberately fragments memory and allocates THP in 4
separate threads

print_aggr() fails to print per-core/per-socket statistics after commit
582ec0829b ("perf stat: Fix per-socket output bug for uncore events")
if events have differnt cpus. Because in print_aggr(), aggr_get_id needs
index (not cpu id) to find core/pkg id. Also, evsel cpu maps should be
used to get aggregated id.
Here is an example:
Counting events cycles,uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/. (Uncore event has
cpumask 0,18)
$ perf stat -e cycles,uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/ -C0,18 --per-core sleep 2
Without this patch, it failes to get CPU 18 result.

It should be useful to allow 'perf probe' probe at absolute offset of a
target. For example, when (u)probing at a instruction of a shared object
in a embedded system where debuginfo is not avaliable but we know the
offset of that instruction by manually digging.
This patch enables following perf probe command syntax:
# perf probe 0xffffffff811e6615
And
# perf probe /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so 0xeb860
In the above example, we don't need a anchor symbol, so it is possible
to compute absolute addresses using other methods and then use 'perf
probe' to create the probing points.
v1 -> v2:
Drop the leading '+' in cmdline;
Allow uprobing at offset 0x0;
Improve 'perf probe -l' result when uprobe at area without debuginfo.
v2 -> v3:
Split bugfix to a separated patch.

When manually added uprobe point with zero address, 'perf probe -l'
reports error. For example:

/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
# perf probe -l
Error: Failed to show event list.
Probing at 0x0 is possible and useful when lib.bin is not a normal
shared object but is manually mapped. However, in this case kernel
report:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
p:probe_libc/abs_0 /path/to/lib.bin:0x (null) arg1=%ax

'perf probe -l' reports error if it is unable find symbol through

# perf probe -l
Error: Failed to show event list
Also, this situation triggers a logical inconsistency in
convert_to_perf_probe_point() that, it returns ENOMEM but actually it
never try strdup().
This patch removes !tp->module && !is_kprobe condition, so it always
uses address to build function name if symbol not found.

CYC packets are a new Intel PT feature.
CYC packets provide even finer grain timestamp information than MTC and
TSC packets. A CYC packet contains the number of CPU cycles since the
last CYC packet. Unlike MTC and TSC packets, CYC packets are only sent
when another packet is also sent.
Support for this feature is indicated by:
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/psb_cyc
which contains "1" if the feature is supported and "0" otherwise.
CYC packets can be requested using a PMU config term e.g. perf record -e
intel_pt/cyc/u sleep 1
The frequency of CYC packets can also be specified. e.g. perf record -e
intel_pt/cyc,cyc_thresh=2/u sleep 1
CYC packets are not requested by default.
Valid cyc_thresh values are given by:
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/cycle_thresholds
which contains a hexadecimal value, the bits of which represent valid
values e.g. bit 2 set means value 2 is valid.
The value represents the minimum number of CPU cycles that must have
passed before a CYC packet can be sent. The number of CPU cycles is:
2 ^ (value - 1)
e.g. value 4 means 8 CPU cycles must pass before a CYC packet can be
sent. Note a CYC packet is still only sent when another packet is sent,
not at, e.g. every 8 CPU cycles.
If an invalid value is entered, the error message will give a list of
valid values e.g.
$ perf record -e intel_pt/cyc,cyc_thresh=15/u uname
Invalid cyc_thresh for intel_pt. Valid values are: 0-12
tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt is updated in a later patch as
there are a number of new features being added.

CYC packets provide even finer grain timestamp information than MTC and
TSC packets. A CYC packet contains the number of CPU cycles since the
last CYC packet.
This patch just adds decoder support. The CPU frequency can be related
to TSC using the Maximum Non-Turbo Ratio in combination with the CBR
(core-to-bus ratio) packet. However more accuracy is achieved by simply
interpolating the number of cycles between other timing packets like MTC
or TSC. This patch takes the latter approach.
Support for a default value and validation of values is provided by a

The frequency of MTC packets can also be specified. e.g. perf record -e

The default value is 3 or the nearest lower value that is supported. 0
is always supported.
Valid values are given by:
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/mtc_periods
which contains a hexadecimal value, the bits of which represent valid
values e.g. bit 2 set means value 2 is valid.
The value is converted to the MTC frequency as:
CTC-frequency / (2 ^ value)
e.g. value 3 means one eighth of CTC-frequency
Where CTC is the hardware crystal clock, the frequency of which can be
related to TSC via values provided in cpuid leaf 0x15.
If an invalid value is entered, the error message will give a list of
valid values e.g.
$ perf record -e intel_pt/mtc_period=15/u uname

TRACESTOP and MNT. Also another bit in PIP is defined.
This patch only adds support for the definitions. Later patches add
support for decoding TMA, MTC, CYC and TRACESTOP which is where those
packets are explained.
VMCS and the newly defined bit in PIP are used with virtualization which
is not supported yet. MNT is a maintenance packet which the decoder
should ignore.
For details, refer to the June 2015 or later Intel 64 and IA-32
Architectures SDM Chapter 36 Intel Processor Trace.

The PSB packet is a synchronization packet that provides a starting
point for decoding or recovery from errors.
This patch adds support for a new Intel PT feature that allows the
frequency of PSB packets to be specified.
Support for this feature is indicated by
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/psb_cyc which contains "1"
if the feature is supported and "0" otherwise.
The PSB period can be specified as a PMU config term e.g. perf record -e
intel_pt/psb_period=2/u sleep 1
The default value is 3 or the nearest lower value that is supported. 0
is always supported.
Valid values are given by:
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/psb_periods
which contains a hexadecimal value, the bits of which represent valid
values e.g. bit 2 set means value 2 is valid.
The value is converted to the approximate number of trace bytes between
PSB packets as:
2 ^ (value + 11)
e.g. value 3 means 16KiB bytes between PSBs
If an invalid value is entered, the error message will give a list of
valid values e.g.
$ perf record -e intel_pt/psb_period=15/u uname
Invalid psb_period for intel_pt. Valid values are: 0-5
tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt is updated in a later patch as
there are a number of new features being added.
For more information about PSB periods refer to the Intel 64 and IA-32
Architectures SDM Chapter 36 Intel Processor Trace from June 2015 or
later.

The period on synthesized 'instructions' samples was being set to a
fixed value, whereas the correct value is the number of instructions
since the last sample, which is a value that the decoder can provide.
So do it that way.

We were depending on the next screen operation after a flush() being
one that would redraw the whole screen so that the progress bar would
be overwritten, when that didn't happen a screen artifact of, say, a
error dialog window would be overlaid on top of the progress bar, fix
it by calling ui_browser__finish(), that now has a TUI implementation.

So that we can erase the progress bar after we're done with it, avoiding
things like:

I.e. that finished progress bar behind the error window. It is not a
problem when we end up redrawing the whole screen, but its ugly when
we present such error windows, provide a TUI method so that code like
the above may avoid this situation, as will be done with the annotation
code in the next cset.

A problem can occur in a statically linked perf when vmlinux can be found:
# perf probe --add sys_epoll_pwait
probe-definition(0): sys_epoll_pwait
symbol:sys_epoll_pwait file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
0 arguments
Looking at the vmlinux_path (7 entries long)

Try to find probe point from debuginfo.
Symbol sys_epoll_pwait address found : ffffffff8122bd40
Matched function: SyS_epoll_pwait
Failed to get call frame on 0xffffffff8122bd40
An error occurred in debuginfo analysis (-2).
Error: Failed to add events. Reason: No such file or directory (Code: -2)
The reason is caused by libdw that, if libdw is statically linked, it
can't load libebl_{arch}.so reliable.
In this case it is still possible to get the address from
/proc/kalksyms. However, perf tries that only when libdw returns
-EBADF.
This patch gives it another chance to utilize symbol table, even if
libdw returns an error code other than -EBADF.
After applying this patch:
# perf probe -nv --add sys_epoll_pwait

Added new event:

probe:sys_epoll_pwait (on sys_epoll_pwait)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:sys_epoll_pwait -aR sleep 1
Although libdw returns an error (Failed to get call frame), perf tries
symbol table and finally gets correct address.

Map clone was written before we introduced reference counts for
maps and dsos, so all that was needed was just a copy and then we
would insert it into the new map_groups instance.
Fix it by, after copying, initializing the map->refcnt, grabbing
a struct dso refcount and resetting pointers that may be used
to determine if a map, when deleted, is in a rb_tree.

Add a script to produce a call-graph from data exported to a postgresql
database and derived from a processor trace event like intel_pt or intel_bts.
Refer to comments in the scripts call-graph-from-postgresql.py and

install the required packages, etc.
