intel_pt_process_auxtrace_info() creates a pt->unknown_thread thread
that eventually needs to be freed by the last thread__put() on it, when
its refcount hits zero, which may happen in
intel_pt_process_auxtrace_info() error handling path and triggers the
following segfault, which would happen as well at intel_pt_free, when
tools using this intel_pt codebase frees up resources:
# perf record -I -e intel_pt/tsc=1,noretcomp=1/u /bin/ls
0 a anaconda-ks.cfg bin perf.data perf.data.old perf-f23-bringup.todo
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]

# perf script -F event,comm,pid,tid,time,addr,ip,sym,dso,iregs
Samples for 'instructions:u' event do not have IREGS attribute set. Cannot print 'iregs' field.
intel_pt_synth_events: failed to synthesize 'instructions' event type
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
#
The problem is: there's a union in 'struct thread' combines a list_head
and a rb_node. The standard life cycle of a thread is: init rb_node in
the constructor, insert it into machine->threads rbtree using rb_node,
move it to machine->dead_threads using list_head, clean in the last
thread__put: list_del_init(&thread->node).
In the above command, it clean a thread before adding it into list,
causes the above segfault.
Since pt->unknown_thread will never live in an rbtree, initialize its
list node so that when list_del_init() is done on it we don't segfault.
After this patch:
# perf script -F event,comm,pid,tid,time,addr,ip,sym,dso,iregs
Samples for 'instructions:u' event do not have IREGS attribute set. Cannot print 'iregs' field.

Intel PT attempts to find the sched:sched_switch tracepoint but that seg
faults if tracefs is not readable, because the error reporting structure
is null, as errors are not reported when automatically adding
tracepoints. Fix by checking before using.
Committer note:
This doesn't take place in a kernel that supports
perf_event_attr.context_switch, that is the default way that will be
used for tracking context switches, only in older kernels, like 4.2, in
a machine with Intel PT (e.g. Broadwell) for non-priviledged users.
Further info from a similar patch by Wang:
The error is in tracepoint_error: it assumes the 'e' parameter is valid.
However, there are many situation a parse_event() can be called without
parse_events_error. See result of
$ grep 'parse_events(.*NULL)' ./tools/perf/ -r'

Mel reported stddev reporting was broken due to following commit:
106a94a0f8 ("perf stat: Introduce read_counters function")
This commit merged interval and overall counters reading into single
read_counters function.
The old interval code cleaned the stddev data for some reason (it's
never displayed in interval mode) and the mentioned commit kept on
cleaning the stddev data in merged function, which resulted in the
stddev not being displayed.

While recording guest samples in host using perf kvm record, it will
populate unprocessable sample error, though samples will be recorded
properly. While generating report using perf kvm report, no samples will
be processed and same error will populate. We have seen this behaviour
with upstream perf(4.4-rc3) on x86 and ppc64 hardware.
Reason behind this failure is, when it tries to fetch machine from
rb_tree of machines, it fails. As a part of tracing a bug, we figured
out that this code was incorrectly refactored in commit 54245fdc35
("perf session: Remove wrappers to machines__find").
This patch will change the functionality such that if it can't fetch
machine in first trial, it will create one node of machine and add that to
rb_tree. So next time when it tries to fetch same machine from rb_tree,
it won't fail. Actually it was the case before refactoring of code in
aforementioned commit.
This patch is generated from acme perf/core branch.
Below I've mention an example that demonstrate the behaviour before and
after applying patch.
Before applying patch:

of that event is allocated using:
mmap_event = malloc(sizeof(mmap_event->mmap) + machine->id_hdr_size);

happen. Should use sizeof(mmap_event->mmap2).

The trace command still appears in help message when you run simple

It's because the generate-cmdlist.sh does not care about the

Wrapping trace command under HAVE_LIBAUDIT_SUPPORT dependency, which
will exclude it from common_cmds array if HAVE_LIBAUDIT_SUPPORT is not

The event group view feature is to see related events together. To use
the group view, events should be recorded as a group with a dedicated
syntax of surrounding events by braces (-e '{ evt1, evt2, ... }').
Also 'perf report' also requires the --group option to enable it.
However it's almost always beneficial to use the group view to see the
group events as it's more expressive. And I think it's more natural to
see events together if they are recorded as a group.
Thus this patch changes the default value to enable it. If users don't
want to see like it and keep the original behavior, they can set the
report.group config variable to false and/or use --no-group option in
the 'perf report' command line.

This patch fixes a bug in __perf_pmu__new_alias() whereby the
alias->snapshot field was not initialized to false. This led to random
alias->snapshot value for an alias and was breaking some measurements
such as:
$ perf stat -a -e uncore_imc/data_reads/ -I 1000 sleep 100
Because the event ended up being treated as snapshot mode, when it is
not.

Add support to get stat events data in perf python scripts.
The python script shall implement the following new interface to process
stat data:
def stat__<event_name>_[<modifier>](cpu, thread, time, val, ena, run):
- is called for every stat event for given counter,
if user monitors 'cycles,instructions:u" following
callbacks should be defined:
def stat__cycles(cpu, thread, time, val, ena, run):
def stat__instructions_u(cpu, thread, time, val, ena, run):
def stat__interval(time):
- is called for every interval with its time,
in non interval mode it's called after last
stat event with total measured time in ns
The rest of the current interface stays untouched..
Please check example CPI metrics script in following patch
with command line examples in changelogs.

When a perf.data file has multiple events, it's likely to be similar
(tracepoint) events. In that case, they might have same field name so
add all of them to sort keys instead of bailing out.

When an evlist contains tracepoint events only, use 'trace' sort key as
default. If --raw-trace option was given, use 'trace_fields' instead.
This will make users more convenient to see trace result.

[ Check evlist in get_default_sort_order() fixing a segfault in 'perf test hists' reported by Jiri Olsa ]
Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
The dynamic sort key requires event name but specifying full event name
is rather inconvenient. This patch adds more ways to identify the event
in a more compact way.
1. If session has just one event, event name can be omitted.
2. Events can be accessed by index preceded by a percent sign.
3. A part of the name can be used, if it's not ambiguous. The partial
name should not contain ':' in it.
4. Full system + event name is still used, it should contain ':'.
So in the below example all does same thing:
$ perf record -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 1
$ perf report -s next_pid,next_comm
$ perf report -s %1.next_pid,%1.next_comm
$ perf report -s switch.next_pid,switch.next_comm
$ perf report -s sched:sched_switch.next_pid,sched:sched_switch.next_comm

The 'trace' sort key is to show tracepoint event output using either
print fmt or plugin. For example sched_switch event (using plugin) will
show output like below:
# perf record -e sched:sched_switch -a usleep 10
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.197 MB perf.data (69 samples) ]
#
$ perf report -s trace --stdio

Note that the 'trace' sort key works only for tracepoint events. If
it's used to other type of events, just "N/A" will be printed.

Each tracepoint event has format string for print to improve
readability. Try to parse the output and match the field name. If it
finds one, use that for the result. If not, fallbacks to the original
output.
For example, sort on kmem:kmalloc.gfp_flags looks like below:
(Note: libtraceevent plugins are not installed on my system. They might
affect the output below)
Before:
# Overhead Command gfp_flags
# ........ ....... ..........
#
99.89% perf 32848
0.06% sleep 208
0.03% perf 32976
0.01% perf 208
After:
# Overhead Command gfp_flags
# ........ ....... ...................
#
99.89% perf GFP_NOFS|GFP_ZERO
0.06% sleep GFP_KERNEL
0.03% perf GFP_KERNEL|GFP_ZERO
0.01% perf GFP_KERNEL
