Add a target that generates a log file for running metric_test.py and
make this a dependency on generating pmu-events.c. The log output is
displayed if the test fails like (the test was modified to make it
fail):
```
TEST /tmp/perf/pmu-events/metric_test.log
F......
======================================================================
FAIL: test_Brackets (__main__.TestMetricExpressions)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):

FAILED (failures=1)
make[3]: *** [pmu-events/Build:32: /tmp/perf/pmu-events/metric_test.log] Error 1
```
However, normal execution will just show the TEST line.
This is roughly modeled on fortify testing in the kernel lib directory.
Modify metric_test.py so that it is executable. This is necessary when
PYTHON isn't specified in the build, the normal case.
Use variables to make the paths to files clearer and more consistent.
Committer notes:
Add pmu-events/metric_test.log to tools/perf/.gitignore and to the
'clean' target on tools/perf/Makefile.perf.

The $(LIBBPF) target should only be a dependency of prepare if the
static version of libbpf is needed. Add a new LIBBPF_STATIC variable
that is set by Makefile.config. Use LIBBPF_STATIC to determine whether
the CFLAGS, etc. need updating and for adding $(LIBBPF) as a prepare
dependency.
As Makefile.config isn't loaded for "clean" as a target, always set
LIBBPF_OUTPUT regardless of whether it is needed for $(LIBBPF). This
is done to minimize conditional logic for $(LIBBPF)-clean.

subdir is added to the OUTPUT which fails as part of building
install_headers when passed from "make -C tools perf_install".
Committer testing:
The original reporter (see the Link: below) had trouble with this:
$ make -C tools perf_install
That ended up with errors like this:
/var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/scripts/Makefile.include:17: *** output directory "/var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/perf/libperf/perf/" does not exist. Stop.
With this patch applied we now get it installed at:
INSTALL /var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/perf/libperf/include/perf/bpf_perf.h
As expected:
$ ls -la /var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/perf/libperf/include/perf/bpf_perf.h
-rw-r--r--. 1 acme acme 1146 Jan 3 15:42 /var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/perf/libperf/include/perf/bpf_perf.h
And if we clean tools with:
$ make -C tools clean
it gets cleaned up:
$ ls -la /var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/perf/libperf/include/perf/bpf_perf.h
ls: cannot access '/var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/perf/libperf/include/perf/bpf_perf.h': No such file or directory

Since Python 3.3 extensions have a suffix encoding platform and
version information. For example, the perf extension was previously
perf.so but now maybe perf.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so. Compute
the extension using Python and then use this in the target name. Doing
this avoids the "perf.so" target always being rebuilt.

Remove the LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC and LIBTRACEFS_DYNAMIC make command
line variables.
If libtraceevent isn't installed or NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 is passed to the
build, don't compile in libtraceevent and libtracefs support.
This also disables CONFIG_TRACE that controls "perf trace".
CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT is used to control enablement in Build/Makefiles,
HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is used in C code.
Without HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT tracepoints are disabled and as such the
commands kmem, kwork, lock, sched and timechart are removed. The
majority of commands continue to work including "perf test".
Committer notes:
Fixed up a tools/perf/util/Build reject and added:
#include <traceevent/event-parse.h>
to tools/perf/util/scripting-engines/trace-event-perl.c.

#
Had to tweak tools/perf/util/setup.py to make sure the python binding
shared object links with libtraceevent if -DHAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is
present in CFLAGS.
Building with NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 uncovered some more build failures:
- Make building of data-convert-bt.c to CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y
- perf-$(CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT) += scripts/
- bpf_kwork.o needs also to be dependent on CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y
- The python binding needed some fixups and util/trace-event.c can't be
built and linked with the python binding shared object, so remove it
in tools/perf/util/setup.py and exclude it from the list of
dependencies in the python/perf.so Makefile.perf target.
Building without libtraceevent-devel installed uncovered more build
failures:
- The python binding tools/perf/util/python.c was assuming that
traceevent/parse-events.h was always available, which was the case
when we defaulted to using the in-kernel tools/lib/traceevent/ files,
now we need to enclose it under ifdef HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT, just like
the other parts of it that deal with tracepoints.
- We have to ifdef the rules in the Build files with
CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y to build builtin-trace.c and
tools/perf/trace/beauty/ as we only ifdef setting CONFIG_TRACE=y when
setting NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 in the make command line, not when we don't
detect libtraceevent-devel installed in the system. Simplification here
to avoid these two ways of disabling builtin-trace.c and not having
CONFIG_TRACE=y when libtraceevent-devel isn't installed is the clean
way.
From Athira:
<quote>
tools/perf/arch/powerpc/util/Build
-perf-y += kvm-stat.o
+perf-$(CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT) += kvm-stat.o
</quote>
Then, ditto for arm64 and s390, detected by container cross build tests.
- s/390 uses test__checkevent_tracepoint() that is now only available if
HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is defined, enclose the callsite with ifder HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT.
Also from Athira:
<quote>
With this change, I could successfully compile in these environment:
- Without libtraceevent-devel installed
- With libtraceevent-devel installed
- With “make NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1”
</quote>
Then, finally rename CONFIG_TRACEEVENT to CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT for
consistency with other libraries detected in tools/perf/.

The perf build currently has a '-Itools/lib' on the CC command
line. This causes issues as the libapi, libsubcmd, libtraceevent,
libbpf and libsymbol headers are all found via this path, making it
impossible to override include behavior.
Change the libsymbol build mirroring the libbpf, libsubcmd, libapi,
libperf and libtraceevent build, so that it is installed in a directory
along with its headers.
A later change will modify the include behavior. Don't build kallsyms.o
as part of util as this will lead to duplicate definitions. Add
kallsym's directory to the MANIFEST rather than individual files, so
that the Build and Makefile are added to a source tar ball.

Add a script to drive the asm pureloop test for arm64/CoreSight that
gathers data so it passes a minimum bar for amount and quality of
content that we extract from the kernel's perf support.
Committer notes:
Add the install of tests/shell/coresight/*.sh to
tools/perf/Makefile.perf as we're starting to populate that dir.

This adds the initial build infrastructure (makefiles maintainers
information) for adding follow-on tests for CoreSight.
Committer notes:
Remove the installation of tests/shell/coresight/*.sh, as there are no
files there yet and thus, at this point, make install fails.
Use $(QUIET_CLEAN) to avoid having extraneous output in the 'make clean'
output.
Also use @$(MAKE) in tools/perf/tests/shell/coresight/Makefile as $(Q)
is not turning into @ when V=1 isn't used, i.e. in the default case it
is not being quiet.
The >/dev/null in the all for tools/perf/tests/shell/coresight/Makefile
is to avoid this:
make[4]: Nothing to be done for 'all'.
make[4]: Nothing to be done for 'all'.
make[4]: Nothing to be done for 'all'.
DESCEND plugins
GEN /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so

INSTALL trace_plugins
On !arm64 where nothing is done on the main target for
tools/perf/tests/shell/coresight/*/Makefile.

'perf record' generates perf.data, which generates extra interrupts
for hard disk, amount of data to be collected increases with time.
Using eBPF trace can process the data in kernel, which solves the
preceding two problems.
Add -b/--use-bpf option for latency and report to support
tracing kwork events using eBPF:
1. Create bpf prog and attach to tracepoints,
2. Start tracing after command is entered,
3. After user hit "ctrl+c", stop tracing and report,
4. Support CPU and name filtering.
This commit implements the framework code and
does not add specific event support.
Test cases:
# perf kwork rep -h
Usage: perf kwork report [<options>]
-b, --use-bpf Use BPF to measure kwork runtime
-C, --cpu <cpu> list of cpus to profile
-i, --input <file> input file name

jevents.c is large, has a dependency on an old forked version of jsmn,
and is challenging to work upon. A lot of jevents.c's complexity comes
from needing to write json and csv parsing from first principles. In
contrast python has this functionality in standard libraries and is
already a build pre-requisite for tools like asciidoc (that builds all
of the perf man pages).
Introduce jevents.py that produces identical output to jevents.c. Add a
test that runs both converter tools and validates there are no output
differences. The test can be invoked with a phony build target like:
$ make -C tools/perf jevents-py-test
The python code deliberately tries to replicate the behavior of
jevents.c so that the output matches and transitioning tools shouldn't
introduce regressions. In some cases the code isn't as elegant as hoped,
but fixing this can be done as follow up.

Add --off-cpu option to enable the off-cpu profiling with BPF. It'd
use a bpf_output event and rename it to "offcpu-time". Samples will
be synthesized at the end of the record session using data from a BPF
map which contains the aggregated off-cpu time at context switches.
So it needs root privilege to get the off-cpu profiling.
Each sample will have a separate user stacktrace so it will skip
kernel threads. The sample ip will be set from the stacktrace and
other sample data will be updated accordingly. Currently it only
handles some basic sample types.
The sample timestamp is set to a dummy value just not to bother with
other events during the sorting. So it has a very big initial value
and increase it on processing each samples.
Good thing is that it can be used together with regular profiling like
cpu cycles. If you don't want to that, you can use a dummy event to
enable off-cpu profiling only.
Example output:
$ sudo perf record --off-cpu perf bench sched messaging -l 1000
$ sudo perf report --stdio --call-graph=no
# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 41K of event 'cycles'
# Event count (approx.): 42137343851
...
# Samples: 1K of event 'offcpu-time'
# Event count (approx.): 587990831640

As you can see it spent most of off-cpu time in read and write in
bench_sched_messaging(). The --call-graph=no was added just to make
the output concise here.
It uses perf hooks facility to control BPF program during the record
session rather than adding new BPF/off-cpu specific calls.

This essentially reverts commit c72e3f04b4 ("tools/perf/build:
Speed up git-version test on re-make") and commit 4e666cdb06
("perf tools: Fix dependency for version file creation")
In commit c72e3f04b4 ("tools/perf/build: Speed up git-version test
on re-make"), a makefile dependency on .git/HEAD was added. The
background is that running PERF-VERSION-FILE is relatively slow, and
commands like "git describe" are particularly slow.
In commit 4e666cdb06 ("perf tools: Fix dependency for version file
creation"), an additional dependency on .git/ORIG_HEAD was added, as
.git/HEAD may not change for "git reset --hard HEAD^" command. However,
depending on whether we're on a branch or not, a "git cherry-pick" may
not lead to the version being updated.
As discussed with the git community in [0], using git internal files for
dependencies is not reliable. Commit 4e666cdb06 also breaks some build
scenarios [1].
As mentioned, c72e3f04b4 ("tools/perf/build: Speed up git-version
test on re-make") was added to speed up the build. However in commit
7572733b84 ("perf tools: Fix version kernel tag") we removed the
call to "git describe", so just revert Makefile.perf back to same as pre
c72e3f04b4 ("tools/perf/build: Speed up git-version test on
re-make") and the build should not be so slow, as below:

The version generated by perf may not be correct by just changing the
head commit, like this:
$ git log --pretty=format:"%H" -n 1
b5d9d4708a24ac1889a30e9aedf8af8d73102139
$ perf -v
perf version 5.16.gb5d9d4708a24
$ git reset --hard HEAD^
HEAD is now at 629f520b265f
$ make
...
$ ./perf -v
perf version 5.16.gb5d9d4708a24
The dependency to building PERF-VERSION-FILE should also include ORIG_HEAD,
as this changes when changing the head commit (while HEAD does not).

$(or ...) is available since GNU Make 3.81, and useful to shorten the
code in some places.
Covert as follows:
$(if A,A,B) --> $(or A,B)
This patch also converts:
$(if A, A, B) --> $(or A, B)
Strictly speaking, the latter is not an equivalent conversion because
GNU Make keeps spaces after commas; if A is not empty, $(if A, A, B)
expands to " A", while $(or A, B) expands to "A".
Anyway, preceding spaces are not significant in the code hunks I touched.

The tools build system uses KBUILD_HOSTCFLAGS symbol for obvious purposes.
However this is not set for anything under tools/
As such, host tools apps built have no compiler warnings enabled.
Declare HOSTCFLAGS for perf tools build, and also use that symbol in
declaration of host_c_flags. HOSTCFLAGS comes from EXTRA_WARNINGS, which
is independent of target platform/arch warning flags.

Add a new dlfilter to show cycles.
Cycle counts are accumulated per CPU (or per thread if CPU is not recorded)
from IPC information, and printed together with the change since the last
print, at the start of each line. Separate counts are kept for branches,
instructions or other events.
Note also, the itrace A option can be useful to provide higher granularity
cycle information.

Recently bperf was added to use BPF to count perf events for various
purposes. This is an extension for the approach and targetting to
cgroup usages.
Unlike the other bperf, it doesn't share the events with other
processes but it'd reduce unnecessary events (and the overhead of
multiplexing) for each monitored cgroup within the perf session.
When --for-each-cgroup is used with --bpf-counters, it will open
cgroup-switches event per cpu internally and attach the new BPF
program to read given perf_events and to aggregate the results for
cgroups. It's only called when task is switched to a task in a
different cgroup.

Commit bb42b3d397 ("perf/x86/intel/uncore: Expose an Uncore unit to IIO PMON mapping")
Mode is intended to provide four I/O performance metrics in MB per each
PCIe root port:
- Inbound Read: I/O devices below root port read from the host memory
- Inbound Write: I/O devices below root port write to the host memory
- Outbound Read: CPU reads from I/O devices below root port
- Outbound Write: CPU writes to I/O devices below root port
Each metric requiries only one uncore event which increments at every 4B
transfer in corresponding direction. The formulas to compute metrics
are generic:

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.
