The pipeline stage cycles details can be recorded on powerpc from the
contents of Performance Monitor Unit (PMU) registers. On ISA v3.1
platform, sampling registers exposes the cycles spent in different
pipeline stages. Patch adds perf tools support to present two of the
cycle counter information along with memory latency (weight).
Re-use the field 'ins_lat' for storing the first pipeline stage cycle.
This is stored in 'var2_w' field of 'perf_sample_weight'.
Add a new field 'p_stage_cyc' to store the second pipeline stage cycle
which is stored in 'var3_w' field of perf_sample_weight.
Add new sort function 'Pipeline Stage Cycle' and include this in
default_mem_sort_order[]. This new sort function may be used to denote
some other pipeline stage in another architecture. So add this to list
of sort entries that can have dynamic header string.

Currently the header string for different columns in perf report is
fixed. Some fields of perf sample could have different meaning for
different architectures than the meaning conveyed by the header string.
An example is the new field 'var2_w' of perf_sample_weight structure.
This is presently captured as 'Local INSTR Latency' in perf mem report.
But this could be used to denote a different latency cycle in another
architecture.
Introduce a weak function arch_perf_header_entry() to set the arch
specific header string for the fields which can contain dynamic header.
If the architecture do not have this function, fall back to the default
header string value.

I got several memory leak reports from Asan with a simple command. It
was because VDSO is not released due to the refcount. Like in
__dsos_addnew_id(), it should put the refcount after adding to the list.

For some time now the 'perf test 42: BPF filter' returns an error on bpf
relocation subtest, at least on x86 and s390. This is caused by
d859900c4c ("bpf, libbpf: support global data/bss/rodata sections")
which introduces support for global variables in eBPF programs.
Perf test 42.4 checks that the eBPF relocation fails when the eBPF program
contains a global variable. It returns OK when the eBPF program
could not be loaded and FAILED otherwise.
With above commit the test logic for the eBPF relocation is obsolete.
The loading of the eBPF now succeeds and the test always shows FAILED.
This patch removes the sub test completely.
Also a lot of eBPF program testing is done in the eBPF test suite,
it also contains tests for global variables.
Output before:
42: BPF filter :
42.1: Basic BPF filtering : Ok
42.2: BPF pinning : Ok
42.3: BPF prologue generation : Ok
42.4: BPF relocation checker : Failed
#
Output after:
# ./perf test -F 42
42: BPF filter :
42.1: Basic BPF filtering : Ok
42.2: BPF pinning : Ok
42.3: BPF prologue generation : Ok

The 'perf stat' subcommand supports the request for a summary of the

The summary line loses the timestamp column, which breaks the CSV
output.
We add a column at the original 'timestamp' position and it just says
'summary' for the summary line.

Now it's easy for script to analyse the summary lines.
Of course, we also consider not to break possible existing scripts which
can continue to use the broken CSV format by using a new '--no-csv-summary.'

The perf tool uses performance monitoring counters (PMCs) to monitor
system performance. The PMCs are limited hardware resources. For
example, Intel CPUs have 3x fixed PMCs and 4x programmable PMCs per cpu.
Modern data center systems use these PMCs in many different ways: system
level monitoring, (maybe nested) container level monitoring, per process
monitoring, profiling (in sample mode), etc. In some cases, there are
more active perf_events than available hardware PMCs. To allow all
perf_events to have a chance to run, it is necessary to do expensive
time multiplexing of events.
On the other hand, many monitoring tools count the common metrics
(cycles, instructions). It is a waste to have multiple tools create
multiple perf_events of "cycles" and occupy multiple PMCs.
bperf tries to reduce such wastes by allowing multiple perf_events of
"cycles" or "instructions" (at different scopes) to share PMUs. Instead
of having each perf-stat session to read its own perf_events, bperf uses
BPF programs to read the perf_events and aggregate readings to BPF maps.
Then, the perf-stat session(s) reads the values from these BPF maps.
Please refer to the comment before the definition of bperf_ops for the
description of bperf architecture.
bperf is off by default. To enable it, pass --bpf-counters option to
perf-stat. bperf uses a BPF hashmap to share information about BPF
programs and maps used by bperf. This map is pinned to bpffs. The
default path is /sys/fs/bpf/perf_attr_map. The user could change the
path with option --bpf-attr-map.

A raw PMU event (eventsel+umask) in the form of rNNN is supported
by perf but lacks of checking for the validity of raw encoding.
For example, bit 16 and bit 17 are not valid on KBL but perf doesn't
report warning when encoding with these bits.
Before:
# ./perf stat -e cpu/r031234/ -a -- sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
0 cpu/r031234/
1.003798924 seconds time elapsed
It may silently measure the wrong event!
The kernel supported bits have been exported through
/sys/devices/<pmu>/format/. Perf collects the information to
'struct perf_pmu_format' and links it to 'pmu->format' list.
The 'struct perf_pmu_format' has a bitmap which records the
valid bits for this format. For example,
root@kbl-ppc:/sys/devices/cpu/format# cat umask
config:8-15
The valid bits (bit8-bit15) are recorded in bitmap of format 'umask'.
We collect total valid bits of all formats, save to a local variable
'masks' and reverse it. Now '~masks' represents total invalid bits.
bits = config & ~masks;
The set bits in 'bits' indicate the invalid bits used in config.
Finally we use bitmap_scnprintf to report the invalid bits.
Some architectures may not export supported bits through sysfs,
so if masks is 0, perf_pmu__warn_invalid_config directly returns.
After:
Single event without name:
# ./perf stat -e cpu/r031234/ -a -- sleep 1
WARNING: event 'N/A' not valid (bits 16-17 of config '31234' not supported by kernel)!
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

WARNING: event 'aaa' not valid (bits 20,22 of config 'f01234' not supported by kernel)!
WARNING: event 'bbb' not valid (bits 16-17 of config '31234' not supported by kernel)!

The only requirement of an auxtrace queue is that the buffers are in
time order. That is achieved by making separate queues for separate
perf buffer or AUX area buffer mmaps.
That generally means a separate queue per cpu for per-cpu contexts, and
a separate queue per thread for per-task contexts.
When buffers are added to a queue, perf checks that the buffer cpu and
thread id (tid) match the queue cpu and thread id.
However, generally, that need not be true, and perf will queue buffers
correctly anyway, so the check is not needed.
In addition, the check gets erroneously hit when using sample mode to
trace multiple threads.
Consequently, fix that case by removing the check.

To pick up the fixes sent for v5.12 and continue development based on
v5.12-rc2, i.e. without the swap on file bug.
This also gets a slightly newer and better tools/perf/arch/arm/util/cs-etm.c
patch version, using the BIT() macro, that had already been slated to
v5.13 but ended up going to v5.12-rc1 on an older version.

Since a lot of stuff happens before the SIGINT signal handler is registered
(scanning /proc/*, etc.), on bigger systems, such as Cavium Sabre CN99xx,
it may happen that first interrupt signal is lost and perf isn't correctly
terminated.
The reproduction code might look like the following:
perf trace -a &
PERF_PID=$!
sleep 4
kill -INT $PERF_PID
The issue has been found on a CN99xx machine with RHEL-8 and the patch fixes
it by registering the signal handlers earlier in the init stage.

In some versions of alpine Linux the perf build is broken since commit
1d509f2a6e ("x86/insn: Support big endian cross-compiles"):
In file included from /usr/include/linux/byteorder/little_endian.h:13,
from /usr/include/asm/byteorder.h:5,
from arch/x86/util/../../../../arch/x86/include/asm/insn.h:10,

So move the inclusion of arch/x86/include/asm/insn.h to later in the
places where linux/stddef.h (that conditionally defines
__always_inline) to workaround this problem on Alpine Linux 3.9 to 3.11,
3.12 onwards works.

The ins_lat of PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT stands for the instruction
latency, which is only available for X86. Add a X86 specific test for
the ins_lat and PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT type.
The test__x86_sample_parsing() uses the same way as the
test__sample_parsing() to verify a sample type. Since the ins_lat and
PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT are the only X86 specific sample type for now,
the test__x86_sample_parsing() only verify the PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT
type. Other sample types are still verified in the generic test.

I got a segfault when using -r option with event groups. The option
makes it run the workload multiple times and it will reuse the evlist
and evsel for each run.
While most of resources are allocated and freed properly, the id hash
in the evlist was not and it resulted in the bug. You can see it with
the address sanitizer like below:
