Pull perf tool updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: "Third version of perf tool updates, with the build problems with with using a 'vmlinux.h' generated from the main build fixed, and the bpf skeleton build disabled by default. Build: - Require libtraceevent to build, one can disable it using NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1. It is required for tools like 'perf sched', 'perf kvm', 'perf trace', etc. libtraceevent is available in most distros so installing 'libtraceevent-devel' should be a one-time event to continue building perf as usual. Using NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 produces tooling that is functional and sufficient for lots of users not interested in those libtraceevent dependent features. - Allow Python support in 'perf script' when libtraceevent isn't linked, as not all features requires it, for instance Intel PT does not use tracepoints. - Error if the python interpreter needed for jevents to work isn't available and NO_JEVENTS=1 isn't set, preventing a build without support for JSON vendor events, which is a rare but possible condition. The two check error messages: $(error ERROR: No python interpreter needed for jevents generation. Install python or build with NO_JEVENTS=1.) $(error ERROR: Python interpreter needed for jevents generation too old (older than 3.6). Install a newer python or build with NO_JEVENTS=1.) - Make libbpf 1.0 the minimum required when building with out of tree, distro provided libbpf. - Use libsdtc++'s and LLVM's libcxx's __cxa_demangle, a portable C++ demangler, add 'perf test' entry for it. - Make binutils libraries opt in, as distros disable building with it due to licensing, they were used for C++ demangling, for instance. - Switch libpfm4 to opt-out rather than opt-in, if libpfm-devel (or equivalent) isn't installed, we'll just have a build warning: Makefile.config:1144: libpfm4 not found, disables libpfm4 support. Please install libpfm4-dev - Add a feature test for scandirat(), that is not implemented so far in musl and uclibc, disabling features that need it, such as scanning for tracepoints in /sys/kernel/tracing/events. perf BPF filters: - New feature where BPF can be used to filter samples, for instance: $ sudo ./perf record -e cycles --filter 'period > 1000' true $ sudo ./perf script perf-exec 2273949 546850.708501: 5029 cycles: ffffffff826f9e25 finish_wait+0x5 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 2273949 546850.708508: 32409 cycles: ffffffff826f9e25 finish_wait+0x5 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 2273949 546850.708526: 143369 cycles: ffffffff82b4cdbf xas_start+0x5f ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 2273949 546850.708600: 372650 cycles: ffffffff8286b8f7 __pagevec_lru_add+0x117 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 2273949 546850.708791: 482953 cycles: ffffffff829190de __mod_memcg_lruvec_state+0x4e ([kernel.kallsyms]) true 2273949 546850.709036: 501985 cycles: ffffffff828add7c tlb_gather_mmu+0x4c ([kernel.kallsyms]) true 2273949 546850.709292: 503065 cycles: 7f2446d97c03 _dl_map_object_deps+0x973 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2) - In addition to 'period' (PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD), the other PERF_SAMPLE_ can be used for filtering, and also some other sample accessible values, from tools/perf/Documentation/perf-record.txt: Essentially the BPF filter expression is: <term> <operator> <value> (("," | "||") <term> <operator> <value>)* The <term> can be one of: ip, id, tid, pid, cpu, time, addr, period, txn, weight, phys_addr, code_pgsz, data_pgsz, weight1, weight2, weight3, ins_lat, retire_lat, p_stage_cyc, mem_op, mem_lvl, mem_snoop, mem_remote, mem_lock, mem_dtlb, mem_blk, mem_hops The <operator> can be one of: ==, !=, >, >=, <, <=, & The <value> can be one of: <number> (for any term) na, load, store, pfetch, exec (for mem_op) l1, l2, l3, l4, cxl, io, any_cache, lfb, ram, pmem (for mem_lvl) na, none, hit, miss, hitm, fwd, peer (for mem_snoop) remote (for mem_remote) na, locked (for mem_locked) na, l1_hit, l1_miss, l2_hit, l2_miss, any_hit, any_miss, walk, fault (for mem_dtlb) na, by_data, by_addr (for mem_blk) hops0, hops1, hops2, hops3 (for mem_hops) perf lock contention: - Show lock type with address. - Track and show mmap_lock, siglock and per-cpu rq_lock with address.

Reference counting: - Add reference count checking infrastructure to check for use after free, done to the 'cpumap', 'namespaces', 'maps' and 'map' structs, more to come. To build with it use -DREFCNT_CHECKING=1 in the make command line to build tools/perf. Documented at: https://perf.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Reference_Count_Checking - The above caught, for instance, fix, present in this series: - Fix maps use after put in 'perf test "Share thread maps"': 'maps' is copied from leader, but the leader is put on line 79 and then 'maps' is used to read the reference count below - so a use after put, with the put of maps happening within thread__put. Fixed by reversing the order of puts so that the leader is put last. - Also several fixes were made to places where reference counts were not being held. - Make this one of the tests in 'make -C tools/perf build-test' to regularly build test it and to make sure no direct access to the reference counted structs are made, doing that via accessors to check the validity of the struct pointer. ARM64: - Fix 'perf report' segfault when filtering coresight traces by sparse lists of CPUs. - Add support for 'simd' as a sort field for 'perf report', to show ARM's NEON SIMD's predicate flags: "partial" and "empty". arm64 vendor events: - Add N1 metrics. Intel vendor events: - Add graniterapids, grandridge and sierraforrest events. - Refresh events for: alderlake, aldernaken, broadwell, broadwellde, broadwellx, cascadelakx, haswell, haswellx, icelake, icelakex, jaketown, meteorlake, knightslanding, sandybridge, sapphirerapids, silvermont, skylake, tigerlake and westmereep-dp - Refresh metrics for alderlake-n, broadwell, broadwellde, broadwellx, haswell, haswellx, icelakex, ivybridge, ivytown and skylakex. perf stat: - Implement --topdown using JSON metrics. - Add TopdownL1 JSON metric as a default if present, but disable it for now for some Intel hybrid architectures, a series of patches addressing this is being reviewed and will be submitted for v6.5. - Use metrics for --smi-cost. - Update topdown documentation. Vendor events (JSON) infrastructure: - Add support for computing and printing metric threshold values. For instance, here is one found in thesapphirerapids json file: { "BriefDescription": "Percentage of cycles spent in System Management Interrupts.", "MetricExpr": "((msr@aperf@ - cycles) / msr@aperf@ if msr@smi@ > 0 else 0)", "MetricGroup": "smi", "MetricName": "smi_cycles", "MetricThreshold": "smi_cycles > 0.1", "ScaleUnit": "100%" }, - Test parsing metric thresholds with the fake PMU in 'perf test pmu-events'. - Support for printing metric thresholds in 'perf list'. - Add --metric-no-threshold option to 'perf stat'. - Add rand (reverse and) and has_pmem (optane memory) support to metrics. - Sort list of input files to avoid depending on the order from readdir() helping in obtaining reproducible builds. S/390: - Add common metrics: - CPI (cycles per instruction), prbstate (ratio of instructions executed in problem state compared to total number of instructions), l1mp (Level one instruction and data cache misses per 100 instructions). - Add cache metrics for z13, z14, z15 and z16. - Add metric for TLB and cache. ARM: - Add raw decoding for SPE (Statistical Profiling Extension) v1.3 MTE (Memory Tagging Extension) and MOPS (Memory Operations) load/store. Intel PT hardware tracing: - Add event type names UINTR (User interrupt delivered) and UIRET (Exiting from user interrupt routine), documented in table 32-50 "CFE Packet Type and Vector Fields Details" in the Intel Processor Trace chapter of The Intel SDM Volume 3 version 078. - Add support for new branch instructions ERETS and ERETU. - Fix CYC timestamps after standalone CBR ARM CoreSight hardware tracing: - Allow user to override timestamp and contextid settings. - Fix segfault in dso lookup. - Fix timeless decode mode detection. - Add separate decode paths for timeless and per-thread modes. auxtrace: - Fix address filter entire kernel size. Miscellaneous: - Fix use-after-free and unaligned bugs in the PLT handling routines. - Use zfree() to reduce chances of use after free. - Add missing 0x prefix for addresses printed in hexadecimal in 'perf probe'. - Suppress massive unsupported target platform errors in the unwind code. - Fix return incorrect build_id size in elf_read_build_id(). - Fix 'perf scripts intel-pt-events.py' IPC output for Python 2 . - Add missing new parameter in kfree_skb tracepoint to the python scripts using it. - Add 'perf bench syscall fork' benchmark. - Add support for printing PERF_MEM_LVLNUM_UNC (Uncached access) in 'perf mem'. - Fix wrong size expectation for perf test 'Setup struct perf_event_attr' caused by the patch adding perf_event_attr::config3. - Fix some spelling mistakes" * tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.4-3-2023-05-06' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux: (365 commits) Revert "perf build: Make BUILD_BPF_SKEL default, rename to NO_BPF_SKEL" Revert "perf build: Warn for BPF skeletons if endian mismatches" perf metrics: Fix SEGV with --for-each-cgroup perf bpf skels: Stop using vmlinux.h generated from BTF, use subset of used structs + CO-RE perf stat: Separate bperf from bpf_profiler perf test record+probe_libc_inet_pton: Fix call chain match on x86_64 perf test record+probe_libc_inet_pton: Fix call chain match on s390 perf tracepoint: Fix memory leak in is_valid_tracepoint() perf cs-etm: Add fix for coresight trace for any range of CPUs perf build: Fix unescaped # in perf build-test perf unwind: Suppress massive unsupported target platform errors perf script: Add new parameter in kfree_skb tracepoint to the python scripts using it perf script: Print raw ip instead of binary offset for callchain perf symbols: Fix return incorrect build_id size in elf_read_build_id() perf list: Modify the warning message about scandirat(3) perf list: Fix memory leaks in print_tracepoint_events() perf lock contention: Rework offset calculation with BPF CO-RE perf lock contention: Fix struct rq lock access perf stat: Disable TopdownL1 on hybrid perf stat: Avoid SEGV on counter->name ...
