The current logic for the perf missing feature has a bug that it can
wrongly clear some modifiers like G or H. Actually some PMUs don't
support any filtering or exclusion while others do. But we check it as
a global feature.
For example, the cycles event can have 'G' modifier to enable it only in
the guest mode on x86. When you don't run any VMs it'll return 0.
# perf stat -a -e cycles:G sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
0 cycles:G
1.000721670 seconds time elapsed
But when it's used with other pmu events that don't support G modifier,
it'll be reset and return non-zero values.
# perf stat -a -e cycles:G,msr/tsc/ sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
538,029,960 cycles:G
16,924,010,738 msr/tsc/
1.001815327 seconds time elapsed
This is because of the missing feature detection logic being global.
Add a hashmap to set pmu-specific exclude_host/guest features.
Committer notes:
Fix 'perf test python' by adding a stub for evsel__find_pmu() in
tools/perf/util/python.c, document that it is used so far only for the
above reasons so that if anybody needs this in the python binding
usecases, we can revisit this.

Add a new option '--cputype' to 'perf list' to display core-only PMU
events or atom-only PMU events.
Each hybrid PMU event has been assigned with a PMU name, this patch
compares the PMU name before listing the result.
For example:
perf list --cputype atom
...
cache:
core_reject_l2q.any
[Counts the number of request that were not accepted into the L2Q because the L2Q is FULL. Unit: cpu_atom]
...
The "Unit: cpu_atom" is displayed in the brief description section
to indicate this is an atom event.

The evsel name is strdup-ed before assignment and so can be const.
A later change will add another similar string.

A perf uncore PMU may have two PMU names, a real name and an alias. The
alias is exported at /sys/bus/event_source/devices/uncore_*/alias.
The perf tool should support the alias as well.
Add alias_name in the struct perf_pmu to store the alias. For the PMU
which doesn't have an alias. It's NULL.
Introduce two X86 specific functions to retrieve the real name and the
alias separately.
Only go through the sysfs to retrieve the mapping between the real name
and the alias once. The result is cached in a list, uncore_pmu_list.
Nothing changed for the other ARCHs.
With the patch, the perf tool can monitor the PMU with either the real
name or the alias.
Use the real name,
$ perf stat -e uncore_cha_2/event=1/ -x,
4044879584,,uncore_cha_2/event=1/,2528059205,100.00,,
Use the alias,
$ perf stat -e uncore_type_0_2/event=1/ -x,
3659675336,,uncore_type_0_2/event=1/,2287306455,100.00,,
Committer notes:
Rename 'struct perf_pmu_alias_name' to 'pmu_alias', the 'perf_' prefix
should be used for libperf, things inside just tools/perf/ are being
moved away from that prefix.
Also 'pmu_alias' is shorter and reflects the abstraction.
Also don't use 'pmu' as the name for variables for that type, we should
use that for the 'struct perf_pmu' variables, avoiding confusion. Use
'pmu_alias' for 'struct pmu_alias' variables.

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.
WARNING: use 11 in 'cpu_atom' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.

Some different PMU types may have the same substring. For example, on
Icelake server we have PMU types "uncore_imc" and
"uncore_imc_free_running". Both PMU types have the substring
"uncore_imc". But the parser wrongly thinks they are the same PMU type.
We enable an imc event,
perf stat -e uncore_imc/event=0xe3/ -a -- sleep 1
Perf actually expands the event to:
uncore_imc_0/event=0xe3/
uncore_imc_1/event=0xe3/
uncore_imc_2/event=0xe3/
uncore_imc_3/event=0xe3/
uncore_imc_4/event=0xe3/
uncore_imc_5/event=0xe3/
uncore_imc_6/event=0xe3/
uncore_imc_7/event=0xe3/
uncore_imc_free_running_0/event=0xe3/
uncore_imc_free_running_1/event=0xe3/
uncore_imc_free_running_3/event=0xe3/
uncore_imc_free_running_4/event=0xe3/
That's because the "uncore_imc_free_running" matches the
pattern "uncore_imc*".
Now we check that the last characters of PMU name is '_<digit>'.
For example, for pattern "uncore_imc*", "uncore_imc_0" is parsed ok, but
"uncore_imc_free_running_0" fails.

'perf_pmu__hybrid_pmus' list. So we just need to search this list.
perf_pmu__hybrid_type_to_pmu converts the user specified string

in next patches.
perf_pmu__has_hybrid checks the existing of hybrid pmu. Note that,

dependency), otherwise perf test python would be failed.

We identify the cpu_core pmu and cpu_atom pmu by explicitly
checking following files:
For cpu_core, checks:
"/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu_core/cpus"
For cpu_atom, checks:
"/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu_atom/cpus"
If the 'cpus' file exists and it has data, the pmu exists.
But in order not to hardcode the "cpu_core" and "cpu_atom",
and make the code in a generic way.
So if the path "/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu_xxx/cpus" exists, the
hybrid pmu exists. All the detected hybrid pmus are linked to a global
list 'perf_pmu__hybrid_pmus' and then next we just need to iterate the
list to get all hybrid pmu by using perf_pmu__for_each_hybrid_pmu.

A raw PMU event (eventsel+umask) in the form of rNNN is supported
by perf but lacks of checking for the validity of raw encoding.
For example, bit 16 and bit 17 are not valid on KBL but perf doesn't
report warning when encoding with these bits.
Before:
# ./perf stat -e cpu/r031234/ -a -- sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

It may silently measure the wrong event!
The kernel supported bits have been exported through
/sys/devices/<pmu>/format/. Perf collects the information to
'struct perf_pmu_format' and links it to 'pmu->format' list.
The 'struct perf_pmu_format' has a bitmap which records the
valid bits for this format. For example,
root@kbl-ppc:/sys/devices/cpu/format# cat umask
config:8-15
The valid bits (bit8-bit15) are recorded in bitmap of format 'umask'.
We collect total valid bits of all formats, save to a local variable
'masks' and reverse it. Now '~masks' represents total invalid bits.
bits = config & ~masks;
The set bits in 'bits' indicate the invalid bits used in config.
Finally we use bitmap_scnprintf to report the invalid bits.
Some architectures may not export supported bits through sysfs,
so if masks is 0, perf_pmu__warn_invalid_config directly returns.
After:
Single event without name:
# ./perf stat -e cpu/r031234/ -a -- sleep 1

Add pmu_add_sys_aliases() to add system PMU events aliases.
For adding system PMU events, iterate through all the events for all SoC
event tables in pmu_sys_event_tables[].
Matches must satisfy both:
- PMU identifier matches event "compat" value
- event "Unit" member must match, same as uncore event aliases matched by
CPUID

On a CPU like skylakex an uncore_iio_0 PMU may alias with
uncore_iio_free_running_0. The latter PMU doesn't support fc_mask as a
parameter and so pmu_config_term fails. Typically parse_events_add_pmu
is called in a loop where if one alias succeeds errors are ignored,
however, if multiple errors occur parse_events__handle_error will
currently give a WARN_ONCE.
This change removes the WARN_ONCE in parse_events__handle_error and
makes it a pr_debug. It adds verbose messages to parse_events_add_pmu
warning that non-fatal errors may occur, while giving details on the pmu
and config terms for useful context. pmu_config_term is altered so the
failing term and pmu are present in the case of the 'unknown term' error
which makes spotting the free_running case more straightforward.

'Invalid event/parameter'. After you see 'Attempting... that may result

'fc_mask' wasn't known to a free running counter. While not completely
clean, this makes it clearer that an error hasn't really occurred.

Default config for a PMU is defined before selected events are parsed.
That allows the user-entered config to override the default config.
However that does not allow for changing the default config based on
other options.
For example, if the user chooses AUX area sampling mode, in the case of
Intel PT, the psb_period needs to be small for sampling, so there is a
need to set the default psb_period to 0 (2 KiB) in that case. However
that should not override a value set by the user. To allow for that,
when using default config, record which bits of config were changed by
the user.

There are some deprecated events listed by perf list. But we can't
remove them from perf list with ease because some old scripts may use
them.
Deprecated events are old names of renamed events. When an event gets
renamed the old name is kept around for some time and marked with
Deprecated. The newer Intel event lists in the tree already have these
headers.
So we need to keep them in the event list, but provide a new option to
show them. The new option is "--deprecated".
With this patch, the deprecated events are hidden by default but they
can be displayed when option "--deprecated" is enabled.

The function convert_scale() can be used to convert string to unit and
scale. For example,
s = "6000000000ns";
convert_scale(s, &unit, &scale);
unit = "ns", scale = 6000000000.
Currently this function is static. This patch renames the function to
perf_pmu__convert_scale and changes the function to global. No
functional change.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Currently, perf record is broken on arm/arm64 systems when the PMU is
specified explicitly as part of the event, e.g.
$ ./perf record -e armv8_cortex_a53/cpu_cycles/u true
In such cases, perf record fails to open events unless
perf_event_paranoid is set to -1, even if the PMU in question supports
mode exclusion. Further, even when perf_event_paranoid is toggled, no
samples are recorded.
This is an unintended side effect of commit:
e3ba76deef ("perf tools: Force uncore events to system wide monitoring)
... which assumes that if a PMU has an associated cpu_map, it is an
uncore PMU, and forces events for such PMUs to be system-wide.
This is not true for arm/arm64 systems, which can have heterogeneous
CPUs. To account for this, multiple CPU PMUs are exposed, each with a
"cpus" field under sysfs, which the perf tool parses into a cpu_map. ARM
PMUs do not have a "cpumask" file, and only have a "cpus" file. For the
gory details as to why, see commit:
7e3fcffe95 ("perf pmu: Support alternative sysfs cpumask")
Given all of this, we can instead identify uncore PMUs by explicitly
checking for a "cpumask" file, and restore arm/arm64 PMU support back to
a working state. This patch does so, adding a new perf_pmu::is_uncore
field, and splitting the existing cpumask parsing so that it can be
reused.

Add generic infrastructure to perf stat to output ratios for
"MetricExpr" entries in the event lists. Many events are more useful as
ratios than in raw form, typically some count in relation to total
ticks.
Transfer the MetricExpr information from the alias to the evsel.
We mark the events that need to be collected for MetricExpr, and also
link the events using them with a pointer. The code is careful to always
prefer the right event in the same group to minimize multiplexing
errors. At the moment only a single relation is supported.
Then add a rblist to the stat shadow code that remembers stats based on
the cpu and context.
Then finally update and retrieve and print these values similarly to the
existing hardcoded perf metrics. We use the simple expression parser
added earlier to evaluate the expression.
Normally we just output the result without further commentary, but for
--metric-only this would lead to empty columns. So for this case use the
original event as description.
There is no attempt to automatically add the MetricExpr event, if it is
missing, however we suggest it to the user, because the user tool
doesn't have enough information to reliably construct a group that is
guaranteed to schedule. So we leave that to the user.
