Perf fails to parse uncore event alias, for example:
# perf stat -e unc_m_clockticks -a --no-merge sleep 1
event syntax error: 'unc_m_clockticks'
\___ parser error
Current code assumes that the event alias is from one specific PMU.
To find the PMU, perf strcmps the PMU name of event alias with the real
PMU name on the system.
However, the uncore event alias may be from multiple PMUs with common
prefix. The PMU name of uncore event alias is the common prefix.
For example, UNC_M_CLOCKTICKS is clock event for iMC, which include 6
PMUs with the same prefix "uncore_imc" on a skylake server.
The real PMU names on the system for iMC are uncore_imc_0 ...
uncore_imc_5.
The strncmp is used to only check the common prefix for uncore event
alias.
With the patch:
# perf stat -e unc_m_clockticks -a --no-merge sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
723,594,722 unc_m_clockticks [uncore_imc_5]

Since commit 1fb87b8e95 ("perf machine: Don't search for active kernel
start in __machine__create_kernel_maps"), the __machine__create_kernel_maps()
just create a map what start and end are both zero. Though the address will be
updated later, the order of map in the rbtree may be incorrect.
The commit ee05d21791 ("perf machine: Set main kernel end address properly")
fixed the logic in machine__create_kernel_maps(), but it's still wrong in
function machine__process_kernel_mmap_event().
To reproduce this issue, we need an environment which the module address
is before the kernel text segment. I tested it on an aarch64 machine with
kernel 4.19.25:

More work needed to make the tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c

After a discussion with Andi, move the perf_event_attr.precise_ip
detection for maximum precise config (via :P modifier or for default
cycles event) to perf_evsel__open().
The current detection in perf_event_attr__set_max_precise_ip() is
tricky, because precise_ip config is specific for given event and it
currently checks only hw cycles.
We now check for valid precise_ip value right after failing
sys_perf_event_open() for specific event, before any of the
perf_event_attr fallback code gets executed.
This way we get the proper config in perf_event_attr together with
allowed precise_ip settings.
We can see that code activity with -vv, like:
$ perf record -vv ls

A TSC packet can slip past MTC packets so that the timestamp appears to
go backwards. One estimate is that can be up to about 40 CPU cycles,
which is certainly less than 0x1000 TSC ticks, but accept slippage an
order of magnitude more to be on the safe side.

kernel:
Stephane Eranian :
- Restore mmap record type correctly when handling PERF_RECORD_MMAP2
events, as the same template is used for all the threads interested
in mmap events, some may want just PERF_RECORD_MMAP, while some
may want the extra info in MMAP2 records.
perf probe:
Adrian Hunter:
- Fix getting the kernel map, because since changes related to x86 PTI
entry trampolines handling, there are more than one kernel map.
perf script:
Andi Kleen:
- Support insn output for normal samples, i.e.:
perf script -F ip,sym,insn --xed
Will fetch the sample IP from the thread address space and feed it
to Intel's XED disassembler, producing lines such as:
ffffffffa4068804 native_write_msr wrmsr
ffffffffa415b95e __hrtimer_next_event_base movq 0x18(%rax), %rdx
That match 'perf annotate's output.
- Make the --cpu filter apply to PERF_RECORD_COMM/FORK/... events, in
addition to PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE.
perf report:
- Add a new --samples option to save a small random number of samples
per hist entry, using a reservoir technique to select a representative
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 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.
- Fix the UI browser scripts pop up menu when there are many scripts
available.
perf report:
Andi Kleen:
- Add 'time' sort option. E.g.:
% perf report --sort time,overhead,symbol --time-quantum 1ms --stdio

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-5.1-20190311' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent
Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo:
kernel:
Stephane Eranian :
- Restore mmap record type correctly when handling PERF_RECORD_MMAP2
events, as the same template is used for all the threads interested
in mmap events, some may want just PERF_RECORD_MMAP, while some
may want the extra info in MMAP2 records.
perf probe:
Adrian Hunter:
- Fix getting the kernel map, because since changes related to x86 PTI
entry trampolines handling, there are more than one kernel map.
perf script:
Andi Kleen:
- Support insn output for normal samples, i.e.:
perf script -F ip,sym,insn --xed
Will fetch the sample IP from the thread address space and feed it
to Intel's XED disassembler, producing lines such as:
ffffffffa4068804 native_write_msr wrmsr
ffffffffa415b95e __hrtimer_next_event_base movq 0x18(%rax), %rdx
That match 'perf annotate's output.
- Make the --cpu filter apply to PERF_RECORD_COMM/FORK/... events, in
addition to PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE.
perf report:
- Add a new --samples option to save a small random number of samples
per hist entry, using a reservoir technique to select a representative
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 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.
- Fix the UI browser scripts pop up menu when there are many scripts
available.
perf report:
Andi Kleen:
- Add 'time' sort option. E.g.:
% perf report --sort time,overhead,symbol --time-quantum 1ms --stdio

header.
Before the patch:
perf report --header-only
...
# bpf_prog_info of id 9
# bpf_prog_info of id 10
# bpf_prog_info of id 13
After the patch:

Committer notes:
Fix the fallback definition when HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT is not defined,
i.e. add the missing 'static inline' and add the __maybe_unused to the
args. Also add stdio.h since we now use FILE * in bpf-event.h.

To fully annotate BPF programs with source code mapping, 4 different
information are needed:
1) PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL
2) PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT
3) bpf_prog_info
4) btf
This patch handles 3) and 4) for BPF programs loaded after 'perf
record|top'.
For timely process of these information, a dedicated event is added to
the side band evlist.
When PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT is received via the side band event, the
polling thread gathers 3) and 4) vis sys_bpf and store them in perf_env.
This information is saved to perf.data at the end of 'perf record'.
Committer testing:
The 'wakeup_watermark' member in 'struct perf_event_attr' is inside a
unnamed union, so can't be used in a struct designated initialization
with older gccs, get it out of that, isolating as 'attr.wakeup_watermark
= 1;' to work with all gcc versions.
We also need to add '--no-bpf-event' to the 'perf record'
perf_event_attr tests in 'perf test', as the way that that test goes is
to intercept the events being setup and looking if they match the fields
described in the control files, since now it finds first the side band
event used to catch the PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT, they all fail.
With these issues fixed:
Same scenario as for testing BPF programs loaded before 'perf record' or
'perf top' starts, only start the BPF programs after 'perf record|top',
so that its information get collected by the sideband threads, the rest
works as for the programs loaded before start monitoring.
Add missing 'inline' to the bpf_event__add_sb_event() when
HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT is not defined, fixing the build in systems without
binutils devel files installed.

This patch introduces side band thread that captures extended
information for events like PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT.
This new thread uses its own evlist that uses ring buffer with very low
watermark for lower latency.
To use side band thread, we need to:
1. add side band event(s) by calling perf_evlist__add_sb_event();
2. calls perf_evlist__start_sb_thread();
3. at the end of perf run, perf_evlist__stop_sb_thread().
In the next patch, we use this thread to handle PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT.
Committer notes:
Add fix by Jiri Olsa for when te sb_tread can't get started and then at
the end the stop_sb_thread() segfaults when joining the (non-existing)
thread.
That can happen when running 'perf top' or 'perf record' as a normal
user, for instance.
Further checks need to be done on top of this to more graciously handle
these possible failure scenarios.

Commit 003ca0fd2286 ("Refactor disassembler selection") in the binutils
repo, which changed the disassembler() function signature, so we must
use the feature test introduced in fb982666e3 ("tools/bpftool: fix
bpftool build with bintutils >= 2.9") to deal with that.
Committer testing:
After adding the missing function call to test-all.c, and:
FEATURE_CHECK_LDFLAGS-disassembler-four-args = -bfd -lopcodes
And the fallbacks for cases where we need -liberty and sometimes -lz to
tools/perf/Makefile.config, we get:

Introduce a new dso type DSO_BINARY_TYPE__BPF_PROG_INFO for BPF programs. In
symbol__disassemble(), DSO_BINARY_TYPE__BPF_PROG_INFO dso will call into a new
function symbol__disassemble_bpf() in an upcoming patch, where annotation line
information is filled based bpf_prog_info and btf saved in given perf_env.
Committer notes:
Removed the unnamed union with 'bpf_prog' and 'cache' in 'struct dso',
to fix this bug when exiting 'perf top':
# perf top

Both libbfd and libopcodes are distributed with binutil-dev/devel. When
libbfd is present, it is OK to assume that libopcodes also present. This
has been a safe assumption for bpftool.

This patch enables 'perf record' to save BTF information as headers to
perf.data.
A new header type HEADER_BPF_BTF is introduced for this data.
Committer testing:
As root, being on the kernel sources top level directory, run:
# perf trace -e tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c -e *msg
Just to compile and load a BPF program that attaches to the
raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} tracepoints to trace the syscalls ending
in "msg" (recvmsg, sendmsg, recvmmsg, sendmmsg, etc).
Make sure you have a recent enough clang, say version 9, to get the
BTF ELF sections needed for this testing:
# clang --version | head -1
clang version 9.0.0 (https://git.llvm.org/git/clang.git/ 7906282d3afec5dfdc2b27943fd6c0309086c507) (https://git.llvm.org/git/llvm.git/ a1b5de1ff8ae8bc79dc8e86e1f82565229bd0500)

Then do a systemwide perf record session for a few seconds:
# perf record -a sleep 2s
Then look at:

Committer notes:
We can't use the libbpf unconditionally, as the build may have been with
NO_LIBBPF, when we end up with linking errors, so provide dummy
{process,write}_bpf_prog_info() wrapped by HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT for that
case.
Printing are not affected by this, so can continue as is.

bpf_prog_info contains information necessary to annotate bpf programs.
This patch saves bpf_prog_info for bpf programs loaded in the system.
Some big picture of the next few patches:
To fully annotate BPF programs with source code mapping, 4 different
informations are needed:
1) PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL
2) PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT
3) bpf_prog_info
4) btf
Before this set, 1) and 2) in the list are already saved to perf.data
file. For BPF programs that are already loaded before perf run, 1) and 2)
are synthesized by perf_event__synthesize_bpf_events(). For short living
BPF programs, 1) and 2) are generated by kernel.
This set handles 3) and 4) from the list. Again, it is necessary to handle
existing BPF program and short living program separately.
This patch handles 3) for exising BPF programs while synthesizing 1) and
2) in perf_event__synthesize_bpf_events(). These data are stored in
perf_env. The next patch saves these data from perf_env to perf.data as
headers.
Similarly, the two patches after the next saves 4) of existing BPF
programs to perf_env and perf.data.
Another patch later will handle 3) and 4) for short living BPF programs
by monitoring 1) and 2) in a dedicate thread.

With bpf_program__get_prog_info_linear, we can simplify the logic that
synthesizes bpf events.
This patch doesn't change the behavior of the code.

Currently, monitoring of BPF programs through bpf_event is off by
default for 'perf record'.
To turn it on, the user need to use option "--bpf-event". As BPF gets
wider adoption in different subsystems, this option becomes
inconvenient.
This patch makes bpf_event on by default, and adds option "--no-bpf-event"
to turn it off. Since option --bpf-event is not released yet, it is safe
to remove it.

AddressSanitizer (or ASan) and UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer (or UBSan) are
very useful tools to detect program bugs:
- AddressSanitizer (or ASan) is a GCC feature that detects memory
corruption bugs such as buffer overflows and memory leaks.
- UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer (or UBSan) is a fast undefined behavior
detector supported by GCC. UBSan detects undefined behaviors of programs
at runtime.
This patch adds a document about how to use them on perf. Later patches will fix
some of the issues disclosed by them.

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.
Before:
$ perf stat --no-scale -e cycles true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
<not counted> cycles
0.000984154 seconds time elapsed
After:
$ ./perf stat --no-scale -e cycles true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
706,070 cycles
0.001219821 seconds time elapsed

When comparing time stamps in 'perf script' traces it can be annoying to
work with the full perf time stamps.
Add a --reltime option that displays time stamps relative to the trace
start to make it easier to read the traces.
Note: not currently supported for --time. Report an error in this
case.

Committer notes:
Do not use 'time' as the name of a variable, as this breaks the build on
older glibcs:
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
builtin-script.c: In function 'perf_sample__fprintf_start':
builtin-script.c:691: warning: declaration of 'time' shadows a global declaration
/usr/include/time.h:187: warning: shadowed declaration is here
