David Ahern 0479b8b9cf perf evlist: Make event_copy local to mmaps
I am getting segfaults *after* the time sorting of perf samples where
the event type is off the charts:

(gdb) bt
\#0  0x0807b1b2 in hists__inc_nr_events (hists=0x80a99c4, type=1163281902) at util/hist.c:1225
\#1  0x08070795 in perf_session_deliver_event (session=0x80a9b90, event=0xf7a6aff8, sample=0xffffc318, tool=0xffffc520,
    file_offset=0) at util/session.c:884
\#2  0x0806f9b9 in flush_sample_queue (s=0x80a9b90, tool=0xffffc520) at util/session.c:555
\#3  0x0806fc53 in process_finished_round (tool=0xffffc520, event=0x0, session=0x80a9b90) at util/session.c:645

This is bizarre because the event has already been processed once --
before it was added to the samples queue -- and the event was found to
be sane at that time.

There seem to be 2 causes:

1. perf_evlist__mmap_read updates the read location even though there
are outstanding references to events sitting in the mmap buffers via the
ordered samples queue.

2. There is a single evlist->event_copy for all evlist entries.
event_copy is used to handle an event wrapping at the mmap buffer
boundary.

This patch addresses the second problem - making event_copy local to
each perf_mmap. With this change my highly repeatable use case no longer
fails.

The first problem is much more complicated and will be the subject of a
future patch.

Namhyung Kim 97f63e4a2c perf tools: Keep group information
Add a few of group-related field in struct perf_{evlist,evsel} so that
the group information in a evlist can be known easily.  It only counts
groups which have more than 1 members since leader-only groups are
treated as non-group events.

Because that is what it really does, i.e. it applies the filters that
were parsed from the command line and stashed into the evsels they refer
to.

We'll need the set_filter method name to actually apply a filter to all
the evsels in an evlist, for instance, to ask that a syswide tracer
doesn't trace itself.

Also we need to have the list_entry set_leader method in evlist.c so that we

 ImportError: /home/acme/git/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: parse_events__set_leader

And also remove a pr_debug from evsel.c so that we avoid this one too:

Jiri Olsa 6a4bb04caa perf tools: Enable grouping logic for parsed events
This patch adds a functionality that allows to create event groups
based on the way they are specified on the command line. Adding
functionality to the '{}' group syntax introduced in earlier patch.

The current '--group/-g' option behaviour remains intact. If you
specify it for record/stat/top command, all the specified events
become members of a single group with the first event as a group
leader.

With the new '{}' group syntax you can create group like:
  # perf record -e '{cycles,faults}' ls

resulting in single event group containing 'cycles' and 'faults'
events, with cycles event as group leader.

All groups are created with regards to threads and cpus. Thus
recording an event group within a 2 threads on server with
4 CPUs will create 8 separate groups.

Examples (first event in brackets is group leader):

  # 1 group (cpu-clock,task-clock)
  perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock ls
  perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock}' ls

  # 2 groups (cpu-clock,task-clock) (minor-faults,major-faults)
  perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock},{minor-faults,major-faults}' ls

  # 1 group (cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults)
  perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock -e minor-faults,major-faults ls
  perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults}' ls

  # 2 groups (cpu-clock,task-clock) (minor-faults,major-faults)
  perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock} -e '{minor-faults,major-faults}' \
   -e instructions ls

  # 1 group
  # (cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults,instructions)
  perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock \
   -e minor-faults,major-faults -e instructions ls perf record -e
'{cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults,instructions}' ls

It's possible to use standard event modifier for a group, which spans
over all events in the group and updates each event modifier settings,
for example:

  # perf record -r '{faults:k,cache-references}:p'

resulting in ':kp' modifier being used for 'faults' and ':p' modifier
being used for 'cache-references' event.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo da3789628f perf tools: Stop using a global trace events description list
The pevent thing is per perf.data file, so I made it stop being static
and become a perf_session member, so tools processing perf.data files
use perf_session and _there_ we read the trace events description into
session->pevent and then change everywhere to stop using that single
global pevent variable and use the per session one.

Note that it _doesn't_ fall backs to trace__event_id, as we're not
interested at all in what is present in the
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events in the workstation doing the analysis,
just in what is in the perf.data file.

This patch also introduces perf_session__set_tracepoints_handlers that
is the perf perf.data/session way to associate handlers to tracepoint
events by resolving their IDs using the events descriptions stored in a
perf.data file. Make 'perf sched' use it.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 79695e1bb6 perf stat: Initialize default events wrt exclude_{guest,host}
When no event is specified the tools use perf_evlist__add_default(), that will
call event_attr_init to initialize the KVM exclusion bits.

When the change was made to the tools so that by default guest samples would be
excluded, the changes were made just to the parsing routines and to
perf_evlist__add_default(), not to perf_evlist__add_attrs, that is used so far
just by perf stat to add multiple events, according to the level of detail
specified.

Recently the tools were changed to reconstruct the event name from all the
details in perf_event_attr, not just from .type and .config, but taking into
account all the feature bits (.exclude_{guest,host,user,kernel,etc},
.precise_ip, etc).

That is when we noticed that the default for perf stat wasn't the one for the
rest of the tools, i.e. the .exclude_guest bit wasn't being set.

I.e. the default, that doesn't call event_attr_init was showing the :HG
modifier:

  $ perf stat usleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':

Fix it by introducing a perf_evlist__add_default_attrs method that will call
evlist_attr_init in all the perf_event_attr entries before adding the events.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 806fb63007 perf evlist: Always do automatic allocation of pollfd and mmap structures
At first tools were required to do that, but while writing the python
bindings to simplify the API I made them auto-allocate when needed.

This just makes record, stat and top use that auto allocation,
simplifying them a bit.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo ee29be625b perf tools: Save some loops using perf_evlist__id2evsel
Since we already ask for PERF_SAMPLE_ID and use it to quickly find the
associated evsel, add handler func + data to struct perf_evsel to avoid
using chains of if(strcmp(event_name)) and also to avoid all the linear
list searches via trace_event_find.

To demonstrate the technique convert 'perf sched' to it:

 # perf sched record sleep 5m

And then:

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 727ab04edb perf evlist: Fix grouping of multiple events
The __perf_evsel__open routing was grouping just the threads for that
specific events per cpu when we want to group all threads in all events
to the first fd opened on that cpu.

So pass the xyarray with the first event, where the other events will be
able to get that first per cpu fd.

At some point top and record will switch to using perf_evlist__open that
takes care of this detail and probably will also handle the fallback
from hw to soft counters, etc.

David Ahern 764e16a30a perf record: Create events initially disabled and enable after init
perf-record currently creates events enabled. When doing a system wide
collection (-a arg) this causes data collection for perf's
initialization activities -- eg., perf_event__synthesize_threads().

For some events (e.g., context switch S/W event or tracepoints like
syscalls) perf's initialization causes a lot of events to be captured
frequently generating "Check IO/CPU overload!" warnings on larger
systems (e.g., 2 socket, quad core, hyperthreading).

perf's initialization phase can be skipped by creating events
disabled and then enabling them once the initialization is done.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo c2a70653af perf evlist: Don't die if sample_{id_all|type} is invalid
Fixes two more cases where the python binding would not load:

. Not finding die(), which it shouldn't anyway, not good to just stop the
  world because some particular perf.data file is invalid, just propagate
  the error to the caller.

. Not finding perf_sample_size: fix it by moving it from event.c to evsel,
  where it belongs, as most cases are moving to operate on an evsel object.o

One of the fixed problems:

Just one mmap, as now we can use just one per-cpu buffer instead of the

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo a91e5431d5 perf session: Use evlist/evsel for managing perf.data attributes
So that we can reuse things like the id to attr lookup routine
(perf_evlist__id2evsel) that uses a hash table instead of the linear
lookup done in the older perf_header_attr routines, etc.

Also to make evsels/evlist more pervasive an API, simplyfing using the
emerging perf lib.

The previous situation was to receive an fd from where to read the event
ID.

Spin off a routine for when we have the ID handy, not having to read it
from some fd.

Frederic Weisbecker 0a10247914 perf: Set filters before mmaping events
We currently set the filters after we mmap the events, this is a
race that let undesired events record themselves in the buffer before
we had the time to set the filters.

So set the filters before they can be recorded. That also librarizes
the filters setting so that filtering can be done more easily
from other tools than perf record later.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 7e2ed09753 perf evlist: Store pointer to the cpu and thread maps
So that we don't have to pass it around to the several methods that
needs it, simplifying usage.

There is one case where we don't have the thread/cpu map in advance,
which is in the parsing routines used by top, stat, record, that we have
to wait till all options are parsed to know if a cpu or thread list was
passed to then create those maps.

For that case consolidate the cpu and thread map creation via
perf_evlist__create_maps() out of the code in top and record, while also
providing a perf_evlist__set_maps() for cases where multiple evlists
share maps or for when maps that represent CPU sockets, for instance,
get crafted out of topology information or subsets of threads in a
particular application are to be monitored, providing more granularity
in specifying which cpus and threads to monitor.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 70db7533ca perf evlist: Move the mmap array from perf_evsel
Adopting the new model used in 'perf record', where we don't have a map
per thread per cpu, instead we have an mmap per cpu, established on the
first fd for that cpu and ask the kernel using the
PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT ioctl to send events for the other fds on that
cpu for the one with the mmap.

The methods moved from perf_evsel to perf_evlist, but for easing review
they were modified in place, in evsel.c, the next patch will move the
migrated methods to evlist.c.

With this 'perf top' now uses the same mmap model used by 'perf record'
and the next patches will make 'perf record' use these new routines,
establishing a common codebase for both tools.
