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.

Add a simple expression parser good enough to parse JSON relation
expressions. The parser is implemented using bison.
This is just intended as an simple parser for internal usage in the
event lists, not the beginning of a "perf scripting language"
v2: Use expr__ prefix instead of expr_
Support multiple free variables for parser
Committer note:
The v2 patch had:
%define api.pure full
In expr.y, that is a feature introduced in bison 2.7, to have reentrant
parsers, not using global variables, which would make tools/perf stop
building with the bison version shipped in older distros, so Andi
realised that the other parsers (e.g. parse-events.y) were using:
%pure-parser
Which is present in older versions of bison and fits the bill.
I added:
CFLAGS_expr-bison.o += -DYYENABLE_NLS=0 -DYYLTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL=0 -w
To finally make it build, copying what was there for pmu-bison.o,
another parser.

When the user specifies a pmu directly, expand it automatically with a
prefix match for all available PMUs, similar as we do for the normal
aliases now.
This allows to specify attributes for duplicated boxes quickly. For
example uncore_cbox_{0,6}/.../ can be now specified as uncore_cbox/.../
and it gets automatically expanded for all boxes.
This generally makes it more concise to write uncore specifications, and
also avoids the need to know the exact topology of the system.

The uncore PMU has a lot of duplicated PMUs for different subsystems.
When expanding an uncore alias we usually end up with a large
number of identically named aliases, which makes perf stat
output difficult to read.
Automatically sum them up in perf stat, unless --no-merge is specified.
This can be default because only the uncores generally have duplicated
aliases. Other PMUs have unique names.

The 'grep -v "filename"' applied to the objdump command output cause a
side effect eliminating filename:linenr of output of 'objdump -l' if the
object file name and source file name are the same, fix it.
E.g. the output of the following objdump command in symbol__disassemble():
$ objdump -l -d -S -C /home/taeung/hello --start-address=...
/home/taeung/hello: file format elf64-x86-64
Disassembly of section .text:
0000000000400526 <main>:
main():
/home/taeung/hello.c:4
void main()
{
400526: 55 push %rbp
400527: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
/home/taeung/hello.c:5
...
But it uses grep -v "filename" e.g. "/home/taeung/hello" in the objdump
command to remove the first line containing file name and file format
("/home/taeung/hello: file format elf64-x86-64"):
Before:
$ objdump -l -d -S -C /home/taeung/hello | grep /home/taeung/hello
But this causes a side effect, removing filename:linenr too, because the
object file and source file have the same name e.g. "/home/taueng/hello",
"/home/taeung/hello.c"
So more do a better match by using grep -v as below to correctly remove
that first line:
"/home/taeung/hello: file format elf64-x86-64"
After:
$ objdump -l -d -S -C /home/taeung/hello | grep /home/taeung/hello:

But now perf_del_probe_events() will always set ret = 0, different from

eg,
-bash-4.3# ./perf probe -d xxx || echo $?

'*ntevs' contains number of elements present in 'tevs' array. If there
are no elements in array, 'tevs2' can be directly assigned to 'tevs'
without allocating more space. So the condition should be '*ntevs == 0'
not 'ntevs == 0'.

This patch decodes the 'partial' flag in AUX records and prints
a warning to the user, so that they don't have to guess why their
PT traces contain gaps (or missing altogether):
Warning:
AUX data had gaps in it 8 times out of 8!
Are you running a KVM guest in the background?
Trying to be even more helpful, we will detect if the user's kvm driver sets up
exclusive VMX root mode for the entire lifespan of the kvm process:
Reloading kvm_intel module with vmm_exclusive=0
will reduce the gaps to only guest's timeslices.
Note however, that you'll still have gaps in cpu-wide traces even with
vmm_exclusive=0, but the number of gaps will be below 100% (as opposed to the
above example).
Currently this is the only reason for partial records.

Implement printing instruction sequences as hex dump for branch stacks.
This relies on the x86 instruction decoder used by the PT decoder to
find the lengths of instructions to dump them individually.
This is good enough for pattern matching.
This allows to study hot paths for individual samples, together with
branch misprediction and cycle count / IPC information if available (on
Skylake systems).

Only works when no special branch filters are specified.
Occasionally the path does not reach up to the sample IP, as the LBRs
may be frozen before executing a final jump. In this case we print a
special message.
The instruction dumper piggy backs on the existing infrastructure from
the IP PT decoder.
An earlier iteration of this patch relied on a disassembler, but this
version only uses the existing instruction decoder.

This patch significantly improves the execution time of
perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events() when running perf record on systems
where processes have lots of threads.
It just happens that cat /proc/pid/maps support uses a O(N^2) algorithm to
generate each map line in the maps file. If you have 1000 threads, then you
have necessarily 1000 stacks. For each vma, you need to check if it
corresponds to a thread's stack. With a large number of threads, this can take
a very long time. I have seen latencies >> 10mn.
As of today, perf does not use the fact that a mapping is a stack, therefore we
can work around the issue by using /proc/pid/tasks/pid/maps. This entry does
not try to map a vma to stack and is thus much faster with no loss of
functonality.
The proc-map-timeout logic is kept in case users still want some upper limit.
In V2, we fix the file path from /proc/pid/tasks/pid/maps to actual
/proc/pid/task/pid/maps, tasks -> task. Thanks Arnaldo for catching this.
Committer note:
This problem seems to have been elliminated in the kernel since commit :
b18cb64ead ("fs/proc: Stop trying to report thread stacks").

supports it, rather than the actual function name. As such, let's choose
the LEP for powerpc ABIv2 so as to ensure the probe gets hit. Do it only

This patch introduces a cgroup identifier entry field in perf report to
identify or distinguish data of different cgroups. It uses the device
number and inode number of cgroup namespace, included in perf data with
the new PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES event, as cgroup identifier.
With the assumption that each container is created with it's own cgroup
namespace, this allows assessment/analysis of multiple containers at
once.
A simple test for this would be to clone a few processes passing
SIGCHILD & CLONE_NEWCROUP flags to each of them, execute shell and run
different workloads on each of those contexts, while running perf
record command with --namespaces option.
Shown below is the output of perf report, sorted with cgroup identifier,
on perf.data generated with the above test scenario, clearly indicating
one context's considerable use of kernel memory in comparison with
others:
$ perf report -s cgroup_id,sample --stdio
#
# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 5K of event 'kmem:kmalloc'
# Event count (approx.): 5965
#
# Overhead cgroup id (dev/inode) Samples
# ........ ..................... ............
#
81.27% 3/0xeffffffb 4848
16.24% 3/0xf00000d0 969
1.16% 3/0xf00000ce 69
0.82% 3/0xf00000cf 49
0.50% 0/0x0 30
While this is a start, there is further scope of improving this. For
example, instead of cgroup namespace's device and inode numbers, dev
and inode numbers of some or all namespaces may be used to distinguish
which processes are running in a given container context.
Also, scripts to map device and inode info to containers sounds
plausible for better tracing of containers.

Ignore two files: pmu-events/{jevents,pmu-events.c} which are generated
during the build.
Committer notes:
Testing it:
$ make -C tools/perf/
$ git status
On branch perf/core
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
tools/perf/pmu-events/jevents
tools/perf/pmu-events/pmu-events.c
nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
$
After the patch:
$ git status

Add the c2c command to command-list.txt so perf help can list this
command.

Currently 'perf c2c report' determines display mode using the --stdio
option, but it could be a problem if stdout is not a tty since
setup_browser falls back to stdio in this case.
But perf c2c didn't know this and tried to use TUI browser anyway. It
should check "use_browser" variable instead.
For example, the following command showed nothing and broke terminal
setting. Now it's fixed..
$ perf c2c report | head

Committer notes:
When trying it without a proper perf.data file it results in a stuck
terminal, just as Namhyung reported above:
[acme@jouet ~]$ perf c2c report | head
WARNING: no sample cpu value[acme@jouet ~]$
One has to kill it from some other xterm. Confirm that this patch fixes
it:
After:
