Kim SeonYoung 8649b6434e perf report/top: Add a tip about source line numbers with overhead
There is a existing tip as below.

    If you have debuginfo enabled, try: perf report -s sym,srcline

However this tip only describe a condition to use --sort sym,scrline
options.  So there is lack of explanation in the tip. I think that it
would be better to add a tip that exactly explains the feature of --sort
srcline.

Adrian Hunter 3bccbe20f6 perf intel-pt: Fix MTC timestamp calculation for large MTC periods
The MTC packet provides a 8-bit slice of CTC which is related to TSC by
the TMA packet, however the TMA packet only provides the lower 16 bits
of CTC.  If mtc_shift > 8 then some of the MTC bits are not in the CTC
provided by the TMA packet. Fix-up the last_mtc calculated from the TMA
packet by copying the missing bits from the current MTC assuming the
least difference between the two, and that the current MTC comes after
last_mtc.

Adrian Hunter 51ee6481fa perf intel-pt: Fix estimated timestamps for cycle-accurate mode
In cycle-accurate mode, timestamps can be calculated from CYC packets.
The decoder also estimates timestamps based on the number of
instructions since the last timestamp. For that to work in
cycle-accurate mode, the instruction count needs to be reset to zero
when a timestamp is calculated from a CYC packet, but that wasn't
happening, so fix it.

Ravi Bangoria a1d9972e59 perf uretprobe ppc64le: Fix probe location
Perf uretprobe probes on GEP(Global Entry Point) which fails to record
all function calls via LEP(Local Entry Point). Fix that by probing on LEP.

Objdump:

  00000000100005f0 <doit>:
      100005f0:   02 10 40 3c     lis     r2,4098
      100005f4:   00 7f 42 38     addi    r2,r2,32512

      100005fc:   10 00 01 f8     std     r0,16(r1)
      10000600:   f8 ff e1 fb     std     r31,-8(r1)

Before applying patch:

  $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
    r:probe_uprobe_test/doit /home/ravi/uprobe_test:0x00000000000005f0

After applying patch:

  $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
    r:probe_uprobe_test/doit /home/ravi/uprobe_test:0x00000000000005f8

This is not the case with kretprobes because the kernel itself finds LEP
and probes on it.

Andi Kleen 0b1db47431 perf pmu-events: Fix fixed counters on Intel
The JSON event lists use a different encoding for fixed counters than
perf for instructions and cycles (ref-cycles is ok)

This lead to some common events like inst_retired.any or
cpu_clk_unhalted.thread not counting, when specified with their JSON
name.

Special case these events in the jevents conversion process.  I prefer
to not touch the JSON files for this, as it's intended that standard
JSON files can be just dropped into the perf build without changes.

Andi Kleen e312bcf130 perf tools: Make alias matching case-insensitive
Make alias matching the events parser case-insensitive. This is useful
with the JSON events. perf uses lower case events, but the CPU manuals
generally use upper case event names. The JSON files use lower case by
default too. But if we search case insensitively then users can
cut-n-paste the upper case event names.

So the following works:

% perf stat -e BR_INST_EXEC.TAKEN_INDIRECT_NEAR_CALL true

 Performance counter stats for 'true':

               305      BR_INST_EXEC.TAKEN_INDIRECT_NEAR_CALL

Sukadev Bhattiprolu 933f82ff72 perf pmu: Use pmu_events table to create aliases
At run time (when 'perf' is starting up), locate the specific table of
PMU events that corresponds to the current CPU. Using that table, create
aliases for the each of the PMU events in the CPU. The use these aliases
to parse the user specified perf event.

In short this would allow the user to specify events using their aliases
rather than raw event codes.

Based on input and some earlier patches from Andi Kleen, Jiri Olsa.

Andi Kleen 80eeb67fe5 perf jevents: Program to convert JSON file
This is a modified version of an earlier patch by Andi Kleen.

We expect architectures to create JSON files describing the performance
monitoring (PMU) events that each CPU model/family of the architecture
supports.

Following is an example of the JSON file entry for an x86 event:

    	[
    	...
    	{
    	"EventCode": "0x00",
    	"UMask": "0x01",
    	"EventName": "INST_RETIRED.ANY",
    	"BriefDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.",
    	"PublicDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.",
    	"Counter": "Fixed counter 1",
    	"CounterHTOff": "Fixed counter 1",
    	"SampleAfterValue": "2000003",
    	"SampleAfterValue": "2000003",
    	"MSRIndex": "0",
    	"MSRValue": "0",
    	"TakenAlone": "0",
    	"CounterMask": "0",
    	"Invert": "0",
    	"AnyThread": "0",
    	"EdgeDetect": "0",
    	"PEBS": "0",
    	"PRECISE_STORE": "0",
    	"Errata": "null",
    	"Offcore": "0"
    	},
    	...

    	]

All the PMU events supported by a CPU model/family must be grouped into
"topics" such as "Pipelining", "Floating-point", "Virtual-memory" etc.

All events belonging to a topic must be placed in a separate JSON file
(eg: "Pipelining.json") and all the topic JSON files for a CPU model must
be in a separate directory.

	Eg: for the CPU model "Silvermont_core":

    	$ ls tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core
    	Floating-point.json
    	Memory.json
    	Other.json
    	Pipelining.json
    	Virtualmemory.json

Finally, to allow multiple CPU models to share a single set of JSON files,
architectures must provide a mapping between a model and its set of events:

    	$ grep Silvermont tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/mapfile.csv
    	GenuineIntel-6-4D,V13,Silvermont_core,core
    	GenuineIntel-6-4C,V13,Silvermont_core,core

which maps each CPU, identified by [vendor, family, model, version, type]
to a directory of JSON files. Thus two (or more) CPU models support the
set of PMU events listed in the directory.

    	tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core/

Given this organization of files, the program, jevents:

	- locates all JSON files for each CPU-model of the architecture,

	- parses all JSON files for the CPU-model and generates a C-style
	  "PMU-events table" (pmu-events.c) for the model

	- locates a mapfile for the architecture

	- builds a global table, mapping each model of CPU to the corresponding
	  PMU-events table.

The 'pmu-events.c' is generated when building perf and added to libperf.a.
The global table pmu_events_map[] table in this pmu-events.c will be used
in perf in a follow-on patch.

If the architecture does not have any JSON files or there is an error in
processing them, an empty mapping file is created. This would allow the
build of perf to proceed even if we are not able to provide aliases for
events.

The parser for JSON files allows parsing Intel style JSON event files. This
allows to use an Intel event list directly with perf. The Intel event lists
can be quite large and are too big to store in unswappable kernel memory.

The conversion from JSON to C-style is straight forward.  The parser knows
(very little) Intel specific information, and can be easily extended to
handle fields for other CPUs.

The parser code is partially shared with an independent parsing library,
which is 2-clause BSD licensed. To avoid any conflicts I marked those
files as BSD licensed too. As part of perf they become GPLv2.

Committer notes:

Fixes:

1) Limit maxfds to 512 to avoid nftd() segfaulting on alloca() with a
   big rlim_max, as in docker containers - acme

2) Make jevents a hostprog, supporting cross compilation - jolsa

3) Use HOSTCC for jevents final step - acme

4) Define _GNU_SOURCE for asprintf, as we can't use CC's EXTRA_CFLAGS,
  that has to have --sysroot on the Android NDK 24 - acme

5) Removed $(srctree)/tools/perf/pmu-events/pmu-events.c from the
   'clean' target, it is generated on $(OUTPUT)pmu-events/pmu-events.c,
   which is already taken care of in the original patch - acme

Andi Kleen 867a979a83 perf tools: Add jsmn `jasmine' JSON parser
I need a JSON parser. This adds the simplest JSON parser I could find --
Serge Zaitsev's jsmn `jasmine' -- to the perf library. I merely
converted it to (mostly) Linux style and added support for non 0
terminated input.

The parser is quite straight forward and does not copy any data, just
returns tokens with offsets into the input buffer. So it's relatively
efficient and simple to use.

The code is not fully checkpatch clean, but I didn't want to completely
fork the upstream code.

Original source: http://zserge.bitbucket.org/jsmn.html

In addition I added a simple wrapper that mmaps a json file and provides
some straight forward access functions.

Used in follow-on patches to parse event files.

Thus, this allows 'perf probe' to find appropriate probe point from

  $ perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 \
    -D _ZNKSt15basic_fstreamXXIwSt11char_traitsIwEE7is_openEv
  Probe point '_ZNKSt15basic_fstreamXXIwSt11char_traitsIwEE7is_openEv'
  not found.
    Error: Failed to add events.
  ----

With this fix, perf probe can find the correct one.

Masami Hiramatsu 35726d3a4c perf probe: Fix to cut off incompatible chars from group name
Cut off the characters which can not use for group name of uprobes
when making it based on executable filename.

For example, if the exec name is libstdc++.so, without this fix
perf probe generates "probe_libstdc++" as the group name, but
it is failed to set because '+' can not be used for group name.

With this fix perf accepts only alphabet, number or '_' for group
name, thus perf generates "probe_libstdc" as the group name.

E.g. with this fix, you can see the event name has no "+".

Adrian Hunter 2acee108f5 perf intel-pt: Fix decoding when there are address filters
Due to errata SKL014 "Intel PT TIP.PGD May Not Have Target IP Payload",
the Intel PT decoder needs to match address filters against TIP.PGD
packets.  Parse the address filters and implement the decoder's
'pgd_ip()' callback to match the IP against the filter regions.

Adrian Hunter 9f1d122b52 perf intel-pt: Enable decoder to handle TIP.PGD with missing IP
When address filters are used, the decoder must detect the end of a
filter region (or a branch into a tracestop region) by matching Packet
Generation Disabled (TIP.PGD) packets against the object code using the
IP given in the packet. However, due to errata SKL014 "Intel PT TIP.PGD
May Not Have Target IP Payload", that IP may not be present.

Enable the decoder to handle that by adding a new callback function
'pgd_ip()' which indicates whether the IP is not traced, in which case
that is the point where the trace was disabled.

Adrian Hunter 810c398bc0 perf intel-pt: Fix snapshot overlap detection decoder errors
Fix occasional decoder errors decoding trace data collected in snapshot
mode.

Snapshot mode can take successive snapshots of trace which might overlap.
The decoder checks whether there is an overlap but only looks at the
current and previous buffer. However buffers that do not contain
synchronization (i.e. PSB) packets cannot be decoded or used for overlap
checking. That means the decoder actually needs to check overlaps between
the current buffer and the previous buffer that contained usable data.
Make that change.

Adrian Hunter e7a06a5353 perf script: Fix vanished idle symbols
Commit 608c34de0b ("perf symbols: Mark if a symbol is idle in the
library") causes idle symbols to vanish from perf script output. That is
because print functions suppress symbols marked as 'idle'.

However, suppression of 'idle' functions is only used by 'perf top' and
'perf top' does not use the print functions.  Consequently that
functionality can simply be removed from the print functions.
