It is useful to aggregate counts per die. E.g. Uncore becomes die-scope
on Xeon Cascade Lake-AP.
Introduce a new option "--per-die" to support per-die aggregation.
The global id for each core has been changed to socket + die id + core
id. The global id for each die is socket + die id.
Add die information for per-core aggregation. The output of per-core
aggregation will be changed from "S0-C0" to "S0-D0-C0". Any scripts
which rely on the output format of per-core aggregation probably be
broken.
For 'perf stat record/report', there is no die information when
processing the old perf.data. The per-die result will be the same as
per-socket.
Committer notes:
Renamed 'die' variable to 'die_id' to fix the build in some systems:

With the new CPUID.1F, a new level type of CPU topology, 'die', is
introduced. The 'die' information in CPU topology should be added in
perf header.
To be compatible with old perf.data, the patch checks the section size
before reading the die information. The new info is added at the end of
the cpu_topology section, the old perf tool ignores the extra data. It
never reads data crossing the section boundary.
The new perf tool with the patch can be used on legacy kernel. Add a new
function has_die_topology() to check if die topology information is
supported by kernel. The function only check X86 and CPU 0. Assuming
other CPUs have same topology.
Use similar method for core and socket to support die id and sibling
dies string.

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.

Note, the IPC values are low due to page faults at the beginning of
execution. The additional cycles are due to the time to enter the
kernel, not the actual kernel page fault handler.

If a given 'local variable' is in user-space, User can
specify memory access method by '@user' suffix. This is
not only for string but also for data structure.
If we access a field of data structure in user memory from
kernel on some arch, it will fail. e.g.
perf probe -a "sched_setscheduler param->sched_priority"
This will fail to access the "param->sched_priority" because
the param is __user pointer. Instead, we can now specify
@user suffix for such argument.
perf probe -a "sched_setscheduler param->sched_priority@user"
Note that kernel memory access with "@user" must always fail
on any arch.

With this patch, we can use the 'percore' event qualifier in perf-stat.
root@skl:/tmp# perf stat -e cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/,cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ -a -A -I1000
1.000773050 S0-C0 98,352,832 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/ (50.01%)
1.000773050 S0-C1 103,763,057 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/ (50.02%)
1.000773050 S0-C2 196,776,995 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/ (50.02%)
1.000773050 S0-C3 176,493,779 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/ (50.02%)
1.000773050 CPU0 47,699,641 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (50.02%)
1.000773050 CPU1 49,052,451 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU2 102,771,422 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU3 100,784,662 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU4 43,171,342 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU5 54,152,158 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU6 93,618,410 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU7 74,477,589 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.99%)
In this example, we count the event 'ref-cycles' per-core and per-CPU in
one perf stat command-line. From the output, we can see:
S0-C0 = CPU0 + CPU4
S0-C1 = CPU1 + CPU5
S0-C2 = CPU2 + CPU6
S0-C3 = CPU3 + CPU7
So the result is expected (tiny difference is ignored).
Note that, the 'percore' event qualifier needs to use with option '-A'.

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.

'perf report' displays recorded data on the screen and emits warnings
and debug messages in the status line (last one on screen).
perf also supports the possibility to write all debug messages to stderr
(instead of writing them to the status line).
This is achieved with the following command:
# ./perf --debug stderr=1 report -vvvvv -i ~/fast.data 2>/tmp/2
# ll /tmp/2
-rw-rw-r-- 1 tmricht tmricht 5420835 May 7 13:46 /tmp/2
#
The usage of variable stderr=1 is not documented, so add it to the perf
man page.

Implemented -z,--compression_level[=<n>] option that enables compression
of mmaped kernel data buffers content in runtime during perf record mode
collection. Default option value is 1 (fastest compression).
Compression overhead has been measured for serial and AIO streaming when
profiling matrix multiplication workload:

Committer notes:
Testing it I noticed that it failed to disable build id processing when
compression is enabled, and as we'd have to uncompress everything to
look for the PERF_RECORD_{MMAP,SAMPLE,etc} to figure out which build ids
to read from DSOs, we better disable build id processing when
compression is enabled, logging with pr_debug() when doing so:
Original patch:
# perf record -z2
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
0x1746e0 [0x76]: failed to process type: 81 [Invalid argument]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.568 MB perf.data, compressed (original 0.452 MB, ratio is 3.995) ]
#
After auto-disabling build id processing when compression is enabled:
$ perf record -z2 sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.001 MB perf.data, compressed (original 0.001 MB, ratio is 2.292) ]
$ perf record -v -z2 sleep 1
Compression enabled, disabling build id collection at the end of the session.
<SNIP extra -v pr_debug() messages>
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.001 MB perf.data, compressed (original 0.001 MB, ratio is 2.305) ]
$
Also, with parts of the patch originally after this one moved to just
before this one we get:
$ perf record -z2 sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.001 MB perf.data, compressed (original 0.001 MB, ratio is 2.371) ]

0 0x30d [0x80]: PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED: unhandled!
COMPRESSED events: 2
COMPRESSED events: 0
$
I.e. when faced with PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED that we still have no code
to process, we just show it as not being handled, skip them and
continue, while before we had:
$ perf report -D | grep COMPRESS
0x1b8 [0x169]: failed to process type: 81 [Invalid argument]

Implement a --mmap-flush option that specifies minimal number of bytes
that is extracted from mmaped kernel buffer to store into a trace. The
default option value is 1 byte what means every time trace writing
thread finds some new data in the mmaped buffer the data is extracted,
possibly compressed and written to a trace.
$ tools/perf/perf record --mmap-flush 1024 -e cycles -- matrix.gcc
$ tools/perf/perf record --aio --mmap-flush 1K -e cycles -- matrix.gcc
The option is independent from -z setting, doesn't vary with compression
level and can serve two purposes.
The first purpose is to increase the compression ratio of a trace data.
Larger data chunks are compressed more effectively so the implemented
option allows specifying data chunk size to compress. Also at some cases
executing more write syscalls with smaller data size can take longer
than executing less write syscalls with bigger data size due to syscall
overhead so extracting bigger data chunks specified by the option value
could additionally decrease runtime overhead.
The second purpose is to avoid self monitoring live-lock issue in system
wide (-a) profiling mode. Profiling in system wide mode with compression
(-a -z) can additionally induce data into the kernel buffers along with
the data from monitored processes. If performance data rate and volume
from the monitored processes is high then trace streaming and
compression activity in the tool is also high. High tool process
activity can lead to subtle live-lock effect when compression of single
new byte from some of mmaped kernel buffer leads to generation of the
next single byte at some mmaped buffer. So perf tool process ends up in
endless self monitoring.
Implemented synch parameter is the mean to force data move independently
from the specified flush threshold value. Despite the provided flush
value the tool needs capability to unconditionally drain memory buffers,
at least in the end of the collection.
Committer testing:
Running with the default value, i.e. as soon as there is something to
read go on consuming, we first write the synthesized events, small
chunks of about 128 bytes:
# perf trace -m 2048 --call-graph dwarf -e write -- perf record
<SNIP>
101.142 ( 0.004 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x210db60, count: 120) = 120

Then we move to reading the mmap buffers consuming the events put there
by the kernel perf infrastructure:

<SNIP same backtrace as in the 107.561 timestamp>
If we limit it to write only when more than 16MB are available for
reading, it throttles that to a quarter of the --mmap-pages set for
'perf record', which by default get to 528384 bytes, found out using
'record -v':
mmap flush: 132096
mmap size 528384B
With that in place all the writes coming from
record__mmap_read_evlist(), i.e. from the mmap buffers setup by the
kernel perf infrastructure were at least 132096 bytes long.
Trying with a bigger mmap size:
perf trace -e write perf record -v -m 2048 --mmap-flush 16M
74982.928 ( 2.471 ms): perf/26500 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7ff94a6cc000, count: 3580888) = 3580888

Was again limited to a quarter of the mmap size:
mmap flush: 2098176
mmap size 8392704B
A warning about that would be good to have but can be added later,
something like:
"max flush is a quarter of the mmap size, if wanting to bump the mmap
flush further, bump the mmap size as well using -m/--mmap-pages"
Also rename the 'sync' parameters to 'synch' to keep tools/perf building

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.

When doing long term recording and waiting for some event to snapshot
on, we often only care about the last minute or so.
The --switch-output command line option supports rotating the perf.data
file when the size exceeds a threshold. But the disk would still be
filled with unnecessary old files.
Add a new option to only keep a number of rotated files, so that the
disk space usage can be limited.

Now 'perf report' can show whole time periods with 'perf script', but
the user still has to find individual samples of interest manually.
It would be expensive and complicated to search for the right samples in
the whole perf file. Typically users only need to look at a small number
of samples for useful analysis.
Also the full scripts tend to show samples of all CPUs and all threads
mixed up, which can be very confusing on larger systems.
Add a new --samples option to save a small random number of samples per
hist entry.
Use a reservoir sample technique to select a representatve number of
samples.
Then allow browsing the samples using 'perf script' as part of the hist
entry context menu. This automatically adds the right filters, so only
the thread or cpu of the sample is displayed. Then we use less' search
functionality to directly jump the to the time stamp of the selected
sample.
It uses different menus for assembler and source display. Assembler
needs xed installed and source needs debuginfo.
Currently it only supports as many samples as fit on the screen due to
some limitations in the slang ui code.

To improve 'perf diff', implement a --cpu filter option.
Multiple CPUs can be provided as a comma-separated list with no space:
0,1. Ranges of CPUs are specified with -: 0-2. Default is to report
samples on all CPUs.

perf diff --cpu 0,1

To improve 'perf diff', implement a --time filter option to diff the
samples within given time window.
It supports time percent with multiple time ranges. The time string
format is 'a%/n,b%/m,...' or 'a%-b%,c%-%d,...'.
For example:
Select the second 10% time slice to diff:
perf diff --time 10%/2
Select from 0% to 10% time slice to diff:
perf diff --time 0%-10%
Select the first and the second 10% time slices to diff:
perf diff --time 10%/1,10%/2
Select from 0% to 10% and 30% to 40% slices to diff:
perf diff --time 0%-10%,30%-40%
It also supports analysing samples within a given time window
<start>,<stop>.
Times have the format seconds.microseconds.
If 'start' is not given (i.e., time string is ',x.y') then analysis starts at
the beginning of the file.
If the stop time is not given (i.e, time string is 'x.y,') then analysis
goes to end of file.
Time string is 'a1.b1,c1.d1:a2.b2,c2.d2'. Use ':' to separate timestamps for
different perf.data files.
For example, we get the timestamp information from perf script.
perf script -i perf.data.old
mgen 13940 [000] 3946.361400: ...
perf script -i perf.data
mgen 13940 [000] 3971.150589 ...
perf diff --time 3946.361400,:3971.150589,
It analyzes the perf.data.old from the timestamp 3946.361400 to the end of
perf.data.old and analyzes the perf.data from the timestamp 3971.150589 to the
end of perf.data.

I was trigger happy on this one, as using ordered_events as implemented
by Jiri for use with the --block code under discussion on lkml incurs
in delaying processing to form batches that then get ordered and then
printed.
With 'perf trace' we want to process the events as they go, without that
delay, and doing it that way works well for the common case which is to
trace a thread or a workload started by 'perf trace'.
So revert back to not using ordered_events but add an option to select
that mode so that users can experiment with their particular use case to
see if works better, i.e. if the added delay is not a problem and the
ordering helps.

The default timeout of 500ms for parsing /proc/<pid>/maps files is too
short for profiling many of our services.
This can be overridden by passing --proc-map-timeout to the relevant
command but it'd be nice to globally increase our default value.
This patch permits setting a different default with the
core.proc-map-timeout config file parameter.

Multi AIO trace writing allows caching more kernel data into userspace
memory postponing trace writing for the sake of overall profiling data
thruput increase. It could be seen as kernel data buffer extension into
userspace memory.
With an --aio option value different from 0 (default value is 1) the
tool has capability to cache more and more data into user space along
with delegating spill to AIO.
That allows avoiding to suspend at record__aio_sync() between calls of
record__mmap_read_evlist() and increases profiling data thruput at the
cost of userspace memory.

The trace file offset is read once before mmaps iterating loop and
written back after all performance data is enqueued for aio writing.
The trace file offset is incremented linearly after every successful aio
write operation.
record__aio_sync() blocks till completion of the started AIO operation
and then proceeds.
record__aio_mmap_read_sync() implements a barrier for all incomplete
aio write requests.

This program benchmarks concurrent epoll_wait(2) for file descriptors
that are monitored with with EPOLLIN along various semantics, by a
single epoll instance. Such conditions can be found when using
single/combined or multiple queuing when load balancing.
Each thread has a number of private, nonblocking file descriptors,
referred to as fdmap. A writer thread will constantly be writing to the
fdmaps of all threads, minimizing each threads's chances of epoll_wait
not finding any ready read events and blocking as this is not what we
want to stress. Full details in the start of the C file.

Enabling --overwrite mode allows us to to use just the most recent
records, which helps in high core count machines such as Knights
Landing/Mill, but right now is being disabled by default as the pausing
used in this technique is leading to loss of metadata events such as
PERF_RECORD_MMAP which makes 'perf top' unable to resolve samples,
leading to lots of unknown samples appearing on the UI.
Enabling this may be useful if you are in such machines and profiling a
workload that doesn't creates short lived threads and/or doesn't uses
many executable mmap operations.
Work is being planed to solve this situation, till then, this will
remain disabled by default.

In ebebbf0823 ("perf top: Switch default mode to overwrite mode") we
forgot to leave a way to disable that new default, add a --overwrite
option that can be disabled using --no-overwrite, since the code already
in such a way that we can readily disable this mode.
This is useful when investigating bugs with this mode like the recent
report from David Miller where lots of unknown symbols appear due to
disabling the events while processing them which disables all record
types, not just PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE, which makes it impossible to resolve
maps when we lose PERF_RECORD_MMAP records.
This can be easily seen while building a kernel, when there are lots of
short lived processes.

By default 'perf script' for itrace outputs sampled instructions or
branches. In my experience this is confusing to users because it's hard
to correlate with real program behavior. The sampling makes sense for
tools like 'perf report' that actually sample to reduce the run time,
but run time is normally not a problem for 'perf script'. It's better
to give an accurate representation of the program flow.
Default 'perf script' to output all calls for itrace. That's a much saner
default. The old behavior can be still requested with 'perf script'

Enable complex event names containing [.:=,] symbols to be encoded into Perf
trace using name= modifier e.g. like this:
perf record -e cpu/name=\'OFFCORE_RESPONSE:request=DEMAND_RFO:response=L3_HIT.SNOOP_HITM\',\
period=0x3567e0,event=0x3c,cmask=0x1/Duk ./futex
Below is how it looks like in the report output. Please note explicit escaped
quoting at cmdline string in the header so that thestring can be directly reused
for another collection in shell:
perf report --header

In the perf.data HEADER_CPUDESC feadure header we store first the number
of available CPUs in the system, then the number of CPUs at the time of
writing the header, not the other way around.

The asciidoc package seems behind the recent big wave of python3
conversion, and we were advised to switch to asciidoctor instead. It's
almost compatible but some extensions used for perf documentation don't
work with it. Here is the patch to cover them, and add the proper
support for asciidoctor.
Pass USE_ASCIIDOCTOR=yes to make for using asciidoctor instead of
asciidoc. The man source and manual attributes are passed via command
options. The support for these attributes have been fixed in the
latest asciidoctor code.
Since asciidoctor can covert to a man page and an HTML directly, we
can omit the dependency on xmlto when USE_ASCIIDOCTOR is set.

User can remove files from cache using --remove/--purge options but both
needs list of files as an argument. It's not convenient when you want to
flush out entire cache. Add an option to purge all files from cache.
Ex,
# perf buildid-cache -l
8a86ef73e44067bca52cc3f6cd3e5446c783391c /tmp/a.out
ebe71fdcf4b366518cc154d570a33cd461a51c36 /tmp/a.out.1
# perf buildid-cache -P -v
Removing /tmp/a.out (8a86ef73e44067bca52cc3f6cd3e5446c783391c): Ok
Removing /tmp/a.out.1 (ebe71fdcf4b366518cc154d570a33cd461a51c36): Ok
Purged all: Ok
