Jiri Olsa cd13618937 perf evsel: Do not rely on errno values for precise_ip fallback
Konstantin reported problem with default perf record command, which
fails on some AMD servers, because of the default maximum precise
config.

The current fallback mechanism counts on getting ENOTSUP errno for
precise_ip fails, but that's not the case on some AMD servers.

We can fix this by removing the errno check completely, because the
precise_ip fallback is separated. We can just try  (if requested by
evsel->precise_max) all possible precise_ip, and if one succeeds we win,
if not, we continue with standard fallback.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 3052ba56bc tools perf: Move from sane_ctype.h obtained from git to the Linux's original
We got the sane_ctype.h headers from git and kept using it so far, but
since that code originally came from the kernel sources to the git
sources, perhaps its better to just use the one in the kernel, so that
we can leverage tools/perf/check_headers.sh to be notified when our copy
gets out of sync, i.e. when fixes or goodies are added to the code we've
copied.

This will help with things like tools/lib/string.c where we want to have
more things in common with the kernel, such as strim(), skip_spaces(),
etc so as to go on removing the things that we have in tools/perf/util/
and instead using the code in the kernel, indirectly and removing things
like EXPORT_SYMBOL(), etc, getting notified when fixes and improvements
are made to the original code.

Hopefully this also should help with reducing the difference of code
hosted in tools/ to the one in the kernel proper.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 6a9fa4e3bd perf string: Move 'dots' and 'graph_dotted_line' out of sane_ctype.h
Those are not in that file in the git repo, lets move it from there so
that we get that sane ctype code fully isolated to allow getting it in
sync either with the git sources or better with the kernel sources
(include/linux/ctype.h + lib/ctype.h), that way we can use
check_headers.h to get notified when changes are made in the original
code so that we can cherry-pick.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo fdbdd7e858 perf evsel: Make perf_evsel__name() accept a NULL argument
In which case it simply returns "unknown", like when it can't figure out
the evsel->name value.

This makes this code more robust and fixes a problem in 'perf trace'
where a NULL evsel was being passed to a routine that only used the
evsel for printing its name when a invalid syscall id was passed.

Ingo Molnar 3ce5aceb5d perf/core improvements and fixes:
perf record:
 
   Alexey Budankov:
 
   - Allow mixing --user-regs with --call-graph=dwarf, making sure that
     the minimal set of registers for DWARF unwinding is present in the
     set of user registers requested to be present in each sample, while
     warning the user that this may make callchains unreliable if more
     that the minimal set of registers is needed to unwind.
 
   yuzhoujian:
 
   - Add support to collect callchains from kernel or user space only,
     IOW allow setting the perf_event_attr.exclude_callchain_{kernel,user}
     bits from the command line.
 
 perf trace:
 
   Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
 
   - Remove x86_64 specific syscall numbers from the augmented_raw_syscalls
     BPF in-kernel collector of augmented raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit}
     payloads, use instead the syscall numbers obtainer either by the
     arch specific syscalltbl generators or from audit-libs.
 
   - Allow 'perf trace' to ask for the number of bytes to collect for
     string arguments, for now ask for PATH_MAX, i.e. the whole
     pathnames, which ends up being just a way to speficy which syscall
     args are pathnames and thus should be read using bpf_probe_read_str().
 
   - Skip unknown syscalls when expanding strace like syscall groups.
     This helps using the 'string' group of syscalls to work in arm64,
     where some of the syscalls present in x86_64 that deal with
     strings, for instance 'access', are deprecated and this should not
     be asked for tracing.
 
   Leo Yan:
 
   - Exit when failing to build eBPF program.
 
 perf config:
 
   Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
 
   - Bail out when a handler returns failure for a key-value pair. This
     helps with cases where processing a key-value pair is not just a
     matter of setting some tool specific knob, involving, for instance
     building a BPF program to then attach to the list of events 'perf
     trace' will use, e.g. augmented_raw_syscalls.c.
 
 perf.data:
 
   Kan Liang:
 
   - Read and store die ID information available in new Intel processors
     in CPUID.1F in the CPU topology written in the perf.data header.
 
 perf stat:
 
   Kan Liang:
 
   - Support per-die aggregation.
 
 Documentation:
 
   Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
 
   - Update perf.data documentation about the CPU_TOPOLOGY, MEM_TOPOLOGY,
     CLOCKID and DIR_FORMAT headers.
 
   Song Liu:
 
   - Add description of headers HEADER_BPF_PROG_INFO and HEADER_BPF_BTF.
 
   Leo Yan:
 
   - Update default value for llvm.clang-bpf-cmd-template in 'man perf-config'.
 
 JVMTI:
 
   Jiri Olsa:
 
   - Address gcc string overflow warning for strncpy()
 
 core:
 
   - Remove superfluous nthreads system_wide setup in perf_evsel__alloc_fd().
 
 Intel PT:
 
   Adrian Hunter:
 
   - Add support for samples to contain IPC ratio, collecting cycles
     information from CYC packets, showing the IPC info periodically, because
     Intel PT does not update the cycle count on every branch or instruction,
     the incremental values will often be zero.  When there are values, they
     will be the number of instructions and number of cycles since the last
     update, and thus represent the average IPC since the last IPC value.

Jiri Olsa 10981c8012 perf evsel: Remove superfluous nthreads system_wide setup in alloc_fd()
It's already setup in the only caller of this method in
perf_evsel__open(), right before calling perf_evsel__alloc_fd(), no need
to do it again.

Also it's better to have it out of the function before we move it to
libperf.

yuzhoujian 53651b28cf perf record: Add support to collect callchains from kernel or user space only
One can just record callchains in the kernel or user space with this new
options.

We can use it together with "--all-kernel" options.

This two options is used just like print_stack(sys) or print_ustack(usr)
for systemtap.

Shown below is the usage of this new option combined with "--all-kernel"
options:

1. Configure all used events to run in kernel space and just collect
   kernel callchains.

  $ perf record -a -g --all-kernel --kernel-callchains

2. Configure all used events to run in kernel space and just collect
   user callchains.

  $ perf record -a -g --all-kernel --user-callchains

Committer notes:

Improved documentation to state that asking for kernel callchains really
is asking for excluding user callchains, and vice versa.

Further mentioned that using both won't get both, but nothing, as both
will be excluded.

Alexey Budankov d194d8fccf perf record: Allow mixing --user-regs with --call-graph=dwarf
When DWARF stacks were requested and at the same time that the user
specifies a register set using the --user-regs option the full register
context was being captured on samples:

  $ perf record -g --call-graph dwarf,1024 --user-regs=IP,SP,BP -- stack_test2.g.O3

   ...... dso: /root/abudanko/stacks/stack_test2.g.O3

I.e. the --user-regs=IP,SP,BP was being ignored, being overridden by the
needs of --call-graph=dwarf.

After applying the change in this patch the sample data contains the
user specified register, but making sure that at least the minimal set
of register needed for DWARF unwinding (DWARF_MINIMAL_REGS) is
requested.

The user is warned that DWARF unwinding may not work if extra registers
end up being needed.

  -g call-graph dwarf,K                         full_regs

  -g call-graph dwarf,K --user-regs=user_regs	user_regs + DWARF_MINIMAL_REGS

  $ perf record -g --call-graph dwarf,1024 --user-regs=BP -- ls
  WARNING: The use of --call-graph=dwarf may require all the user registers, specifying a subset with --user-regs may render DWARF unwinding unreliable, so the minimal registers set (IP, SP) is explicitly forced.

Jin Yao 064b4e82aa perf tools: Add a 'percore' event qualifier
Add a 'percore' event qualifier, like cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/,
that sums up the event counts for both hardware threads in a core.

We can already do this with --per-core, but it's often useful to do
this together with other metrics that are collected per hardware thread.
So we need to support this per-core counting on a event level.

This can be implemented in only the user tool, no kernel support needed.

 v4:
 ---
 1. Add Arnaldo's patch which updates the documentation for
    this new qualifier.
 2. Rebase to latest perf/core branch

 v3:
 ---
 Simplify the code according to Jiri's comments.
 Before:
   "return term->val.percore ? true : false;"
 Now:
   "return term->val.percore;"

 v2:
 ---
 Change the qualifier name from 'coresum' to 'percore' according to
 comments from Jiri and Andi.

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main kernel changes were:

   - add support for Intel's "adaptive PEBS v4" - which embedds LBS data
     in PEBS records and can thus batch up and reduce the IRQ (NMI) rate
     significantly - reducing overhead and making call-graph profiling
     less intrusive.

   - add Intel CPU core and uncore support updates for Tremont, Icelake,

   - extend the x86 PMU constraints scheduler with 'constraint ranges'
     to better support Icelake hw constraints,

   - make x86 call-chain support work better with CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y

   - misc other changes

  Tooling changes:

   - updates to the main tools: 'perf record', 'perf trace', 'perf
     stat'

   - updated Intel and S/390 vendor events

   - libtraceevent updates

   - misc other updates and fixes"

Mao Han 3a5b64f05d perf evsel: Use hweight64() instead of hweight_long(attr.sample_regs_user)
On 32-bits platform with more than 32 registers, the 64 bits mask is
truncate to the lower 32 bits and the return value of hweight_long will
always smaller than 32. When kernel outputs more than 32 registers, but
the user perf program only counts 32, there will be a data mismatch
result to overflow check fail.

Jiri Olsa 4e8a5c1551 perf evsel: Fix max perf_event_attr.precise_ip detection
After a discussion with Andi, move the perf_event_attr.precise_ip
detection for maximum precise config (via :P modifier or for default
cycles event) to perf_evsel__open().

The current detection in perf_event_attr__set_max_precise_ip() is
tricky, because precise_ip config is specific for given event and it
currently checks only hw cycles.

We now check for valid precise_ip value right after failing
sys_perf_event_open() for specific event, before any of the
perf_event_attr fallback code gets executed.

This way we get the proper config in perf_event_attr together with
allowed precise_ip settings.

We can see that code activity with -vv, like:

  $ perf record -vv ls

Song Liu 71184c6ab7 perf record: Replace option --bpf-event with --no-bpf-event
Currently, monitoring of BPF programs through bpf_event is off by
default for 'perf record'.

To turn it on, the user need to use option "--bpf-event".  As BPF gets
wider adoption in different subsystems, this option becomes
inconvenient.

This patch makes bpf_event on by default, and adds option "--no-bpf-event"
to turn it off. Since option --bpf-event is not released yet, it is safe
to remove it.

His patch took care of evsel->prev_raw_counts, but the above backtraces
are about evsel->counts, so fix that instead.

Andi Kleen 42a5864cf0 perf stat: Improve scaling
The multiplexing scaling in perf stat mysteriously adds 0.5 to the

doesn't use that strange convention. Remove the extra 0.5.

Andi Kleen 75998bb263 perf stat: Fix --no-scale
The -c option to enable multiplex scaling has been useless for quite
some time because scaling is default.

It's only useful as --no-scale to disable scaling. But the non scaling
code path has bitrotted and doesn't print anything because perf output
code relies on value run/ena information.

Also even when we don't want to scale a value it's still useful to show
its multiplex percentage.

This patch:
  - Fixes help and documentation to show --no-scale instead of -c
  - Removes -c, only keeps the long option because -c doesn't support negatives.
  - Enables running/enabled even with --no-scale
  - And fixes some other problems in the no-scale output.

Before:

  $ perf stat --no-scale -e cycles true

   Performance counter stats for 'true':

       <not counted>      cycles

         0.000984154 seconds time elapsed

After:

  $ ./perf stat --no-scale -e cycles true

   Performance counter stats for 'true':

             706,070      cycles

         0.001219821 seconds time elapsed

Jiri Olsa 5b61adb165 perf evsel: Probe for precise_ip with simple attr
Currently we probe for precise_ip with user specified perf_event_attr,
which might fail because of unsupported kernel features, which would get
disabled during the open time anyway.

Switching the probe to take place on simple hw cycles, so the following
record sets proper precise_ip:

  # perf record -e cycles:P ls
  # perf evlist -v
  cycles:P: size: 112, ... precise_ip: 3, ...

Song Liu 45178a928a perf tools: Handle PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT
This patch adds basic handling of PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT.  Tracking of
PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT is OFF by default. Option --bpf-event is added to
turn it on.

Committer notes:

Add dummy machine__process_bpf_event() variant that returns zero for
systems without HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT, such as Alpine Linux, unbreaking
the build in such systems.

Remove the needless include <machine.h> from bpf->event.h, provide just
forward declarations for the structs and unions in the parameters, to
reduce compilation time and needless rebuilds when machine.h gets
changed.

Committer testing:

When running with:

 # perf record --bpf-event

On an older kernel where PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT and PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL
is not present, we fallback to removing those two bits from
perf_event_attr, making the tool to continue to work on older kernels:

And then proceeds to work without those two features.

As passing --bpf-event is an explicit action performed by the user, perhaps we
should emit a warning telling that the kernel has no such feature, but this can
be done on top of this patch.

Now with a kernel that supports these events, start the 'record --bpf-event -a'
and then run 'perf trace sleep 10000' that will use the BPF
augmented_raw_syscalls.o prebuilt (for another kernel version even) and thus
should generate PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT events:

  [root@quaco ~]# perf record -e dummy -a --bpf-event
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.713 MB perf.data ]

Song Liu 9aa0bfa370 perf tools: Handle PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL
This patch handles PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL in perf record/report.
Specifically, map and symbol are created for ksymbol register, and
removed for ksymbol unregister.

This patch also sets perf_event_attr.ksymbol properly. The flag is ON by
default.

Committer notes:

Use proper inttypes.h for u64, fixing the build in some environments
like in the android NDK r15c targetting ARM 32-bit.

I.e. fixing this build error:

  util/event.c: In function 'perf_event__fprintf_ksymbol':
  util/event.c:1489:10: error: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 3 has type 'u64' [-Werror=format=]
            event->ksymbol_event.flags, event->ksymbol_event.name);
            ^
  cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Jiri Olsa fb50c09e92 perf tools: Fix crash on synthesizing the unit
Adam reported a record command crash for simple session like:

  $ perf record -e cpu-clock ls

with following backtrace:

  Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
  3543            ev = event_update_event__new(size + 1, PERF_EVENT_UPDATE__UNIT, evsel->id[0]);
  (gdb) bt
  #0  perf_event__synthesize_event_update_unit

  #2  0x00000000004445cb in record__synthesize
  #3  0x0000000000444bc5 in __cmd_record
  ...

We synthesize an update event that needs to touch the evsel id array,
which is not defined at that time. Fix this by forcing the id allocation
for events with their unit defined.

Reflecting possible read_format ID bit in the attr tests.

Andi reported following malfunction:

  # perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles}:S' -a sleep 1

  non matching sample_id_all

That's because we disable sample_id_all bit for non-sampling group
members. We can't do that, because it needs to be the same over the
whole event list. This patch keeps it untouched again.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 2fda5ada07 perf evsel: Introduce per event max_events property
This simply adds the field to 'struct perf_evsel' and allows setting
it via the event parser, to test it lets trace trace:

First look at where in a function that receives an evsel we can put a probe
to read how evsel->max_events was setup:

  # perf probe -x ~/bin/perf -L trace__event_handler
  <trace__event_handler@/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/builtin-trace.c:0>
        0  static int trace__event_handler(struct trace *trace, struct perf_evsel *evsel,
                                          union perf_event *event __maybe_unused,
                                          struct perf_sample *sample)
        3  {
        4         struct thread *thread = machine__findnew_thread(trace->host, sample->pid, sample->tid);
        5         int callchain_ret = 0;

        7         if (sample->callchain) {
        8                 callchain_ret = trace__resolve_callchain(trace, evsel, sample, &callchain_cursor);
        9                 if (callchain_ret == 0) {
       10                         if (callchain_cursor.nr < trace->min_stack)
       11                                 goto out;
       12                         callchain_ret = 1;
                          }
                  }

See what variables we can probe at line 7:

  # perf probe -x ~/bin/perf -V trace__event_handler:7
  Available variables at trace__event_handler:7
          @<trace__event_handler+89>
                  int     callchain_ret
                  struct perf_evsel*      evsel
                  struct perf_sample*     sample
                  struct thread*  thread
                  struct trace*   trace
                  union perf_event*       event

Add a probe at that line asking for evsel->max_events to be collected and named
as "max_events":

  # perf probe -x ~/bin/perf trace__event_handler:7 'max_events=evsel->max_events'
  Added new event:
    probe_perf:trace__event_handler (on trace__event_handler:7 in /home/acme/bin/perf with max_events=evsel->max_events)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

  	perf record -e probe_perf:trace__event_handler -aR sleep 1

Now use 'perf trace', here aliased to just 'trace' and trace trace, i.e.
the first 'trace' is tracing just that 'probe_perf:trace__event_handler' event,
while the traced trace is tracing all scheduler tracepoints, will stop at two
events (--max-events 2) and will just set evsel->max_events for all the sched
tracepoints to 9, we will see the output of both traces intermixed:

  # trace -e *perf:*event_handler trace --max-events 2 -e sched:*/nr=9/
       0.000 :0/0 sched:sched_waking:comm=rcu_sched pid=10 prio=120 target_cpu=000
       0.009 :0/0 sched:sched_wakeup:comm=rcu_sched pid=10 prio=120 target_cpu=000
       0.000 trace/23949 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9
       0.046 trace/23949 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9
  #

Now, if the traced trace sends its output to /dev/null, we'll see just
what the first level trace outputs: that evsel->max_events is indeed
being set to 9:

  # trace -e *perf:*event_handler trace -o /dev/null --max-events 2 -e sched:*/nr=9/
       0.000 trace/23961 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9
       0.030 trace/23961 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9
  #

Now that we can set evsel->max_events, we can go to the next step, honour that
per-event property in 'perf trace'.

Kan Liang 95035c5e16 perf evlist: Fix error out while applying initial delay and LBR
'perf record' will error out if both --delay and LBR are applied.

For example:

  # perf record -D 1000 -a -e cycles -j any -- sleep 2
  Error:
  dummy:HG: PMU Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts.
  Try 'perf stat'
  #

A dummy event is added implicitly for initial delay, which has the same
configurations as real sampling events. The dummy event is a software
event. If LBR is configured, perf must error out.

The dummy event will only be used to track PERF_RECORD_MMAP while perf
waits for the initial delay to enable the real events. The BRANCH_STACK
bit can be safely cleared for the dummy event.

After applying the patch:

  # perf record -D 1000 -a -e cycles -j any -- sleep 2
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.054 MB perf.data (828 samples) ]

Jiri Olsa 0aa802a794 perf stat: Get rid of extra clock display function
There's no reason to have separate function to display clock events.
It's only purpose was to convert the nanosecond value into microseconds.
We do that now in generic code, if the unit and scale values are
properly set, which this patch do for clock events.

The output differs in the unit field being displayed in its columns
rather than having it added as a suffix of the event name. Plus the
value is rounded into 2 decimal numbers as for any other event.

Before:

  # perf stat  -e cpu-clock,task-clock -C 0 sleep 3

   Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':

       3001.123137      cpu-clock (msec)          #    1.000 CPUs utilized
       3001.133250      task-clock (msec)         #    1.000 CPUs utilized

       3.001159813 seconds time elapsed

Now:

  # perf stat  -e cpu-clock,task-clock -C 0 sleep 3

   Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':

          3,001.05 msec cpu-clock                 #    1.000 CPUs utilized
          3,001.05 msec task-clock                #    1.000 CPUs utilized

       3.001077794 seconds time elapsed

There's a small difference in csv output, as we now output the unit
field, which was empty before. It's in the proper spot, so there's no
compatibility issue.

Before:

  # perf stat  -e cpu-clock,task-clock -C 0 -x, sleep 3

Kan Liang 121f325f34 perf evsel: Only fall back group read for leader
Perf doesn't support mixed events from different PMUs (except software
event) in a group. The perf stat should output <not counted>/<not
supported> for all events, but it doesn't. For example,

  perf stat -e '{cycles,uncore_imc_5/umask=0xF,event=0x4/,instructions}'
       <not counted>      cycles
       <not supported>    uncore_imc_5/umask=0xF,event=0x4/
           1,024,300      instructions

If perf fails to open an event, it doesn't error out directly. It will
disable some features and retry, until the event is opened or all
features are disabled. The disabled features will not be re-enabled. The
group read is one of these features.

For the example as above, the IMC event and the leader event "cycles"
are from different PMUs. Opening the IMC event must fail. The group read
feature must be disabled for IMC event and the followed event
"instructions". The "instructions" event has the same PMU as the leader
"cycles". It can be opened successfully. Since the group read feature
has been disabled, the "instructions" event will be read as a single
event, which definitely has a value.

The group read fallback is still useful for the case which kernel
doesn't support group read. It is good enough to be handled only by the
leader.

For the fallback request from members, it must be caused by an error.
The fallback only breaks the semantics of group.  Limit the group read
fallback only for the leader.

Committer testing:

On a broadwell t450s notebook:

Before:

  # perf stat -e '{cycles,unc_cbo_cache_lookup.read_i,instructions}' sleep 1

Jiri Olsa e9add8bac6 perf evsel: Disable write_backward for leader sampling group events
.. and other related fields that do not need to be enabled
for events that have sampling leader.

It fixes the perf top usage Ingo reported broken:

  # perf top -e '{cycles,msr/aperf/}:S'

The 'msr/aperf/' event is configured for write_back sampling, which is
not allowed by the MSR PMU, so it fails to create the event.

Adjusting related attr test.

Jiri Olsa 129193bb0c perf stat: Keep the / modifier separator in fallback
The 'perf stat' fallback for EACCES error sets the exclude_kernel
perf_event_attr and tries perf_event_open() again with it. In addition,
it also changes the name of the event to reflect that change by adding
the 'u' modifier.

But it does not take into account the '/' separator, so the event name
can end up mangled, like: (note the '/:' characters)

  $ perf stat -e cpu/cpu-cycles/ kill
  ...
             386,832      cpu/cpu-cycles/:u

Adding the code to check on the '/' separator and set the following
correct event name:

  $ perf stat -e cpu/cpu-cycles/ kill
  ...
             388,548      cpu/cpu-cycles/u

Andi Kleen ec3948451e perf record: Remove misleading error suggestion
When perf record encounters an error setting up an event it suggests
to enable CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS. This is misleading because:

- Usually it is enabled (it is really hard to disable on x86)

- The problem is usually somewhere else, e.g. the CPU is not supported
or an invalid configuration has been used.

Remove the misleading suggestion.

Agustin Vega-Frias 8c5421c016 perf pmu: Display pmu name when printing unmerged events in stat
To simplify creation of events accross multiple instances of the same
type of PMU stat supports two methods for creating multiple events from
a single event specification:

1. A prefix or glob can be used in the PMU name.
2. Aliases, which are listed immediately after the Kernel PMU events
   by perf list, are used.

When the --no-merge option is passed and these events are displayed
individually the PMU name is lost and it's not possible to see which
count corresponds to which pmu:

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                    67      l3cache/read-miss/
                    67      l3cache/read-miss/
                    63      l3cache/read-miss/
                    60      l3cache/read-miss/

                     8      l3cache_read_miss

           0.001661305 seconds time elapsed

This change adds the original pmu name to the event. For dynamic pmu
events the pmu name is restored in the event name:

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                    63      l3cache_0_3/read-miss/
                    74      l3cache_0_1/read-miss/

           0.001675706 seconds time elapsed

For alias events the name is added after the event name:

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo a53b646030 perf cgroup: Rename close_cgroup() to cgroup__put()
It is not really closing the cgroup, but instead dropping a reference
count and if it hits zero, then calling delete, which will, among other
cleanup shores, close the cgroup fd.

So it is really dropping a reference to that cgroup, and the method name
for that is "put", so rename close_cgroup() to cgroup__put() to follow
this naming convention.

Jin Yao ab6c79b819 perf stat: Ignore error thread when enabling system-wide --per-thread
If we execute 'perf stat --per-thread' with non-root account (even set
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1 yet), it reports the error:

  jinyao@skl:~$ perf stat --per-thread
  Error:
  You may not have permission to collect system-wide stats.

  Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid,
  which controls use of the performance events system by
  unprivileged users (without CAP_SYS_ADMIN).

  The current value is 2:

    -1: Allow use of (almost) all events by all users
        Ignore mlock limit after perf_event_mlock_kb without CAP_IPC_LOCK
  >= 0: Disallow ftrace function tracepoint by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
        Disallow raw tracepoint access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  >= 1: Disallow CPU event access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  >= 2: Disallow kernel profiling by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN

  To make this setting permanent, edit /etc/sysctl.conf too, e.g.:

          kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1

Perhaps the ptrace rule doesn't allow to trace some processes. But anyway
the global --per-thread mode had better ignore such errors and continue
working on other threads.

This patch will record the index of error thread in perf_evsel__open()
and remove this thread before retrying.

For example (run with non-root, kernel.perf_event_paranoid isn't set):

  jinyao@skl:~$ perf stat --per-thread

Jiri Olsa f290aa1ffa perf record: Fix period option handling
Stephan reported we don't unset PERIOD sample type when --no-period is

Check the sample_type, it shouldn't have PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD there when
--no-period is used.
