![]() New features: - Improvements for the flamegraph python script, including: - Display perf.data header - Display PIDs of user stacks - Added option to change color scheme - Default to blue/green color scheme to improve accessibility - Correctly identify kernel stacks when debuginfo is available - Improvements for 'perf bench futex': - Add --mlockall parameter - Add --broadcast and --pi to the 'requeue' sub benchmark - Add support for PMU aliases. - Introduce an ARM Coresight ETE decoder. - Add a 'perf bench' entry for evlist open/close operations, to help quantify improvements with multithreading 'perf record'. - Allow reporting the [un]throttle PERF_RECORD_ meta event in 'perf script's python scripting. - Add a 'perf test' entry for PMU aliases. - Add a 'perf test' entry for 'perf record/perf report/perf script' pipe mode. Fixes: - perf script dlfilter (API for filtering via dynamically loaded shared object introduced in v5.14) fixes and a 'perf test' entry for it. - Fix get_current_dir_name() compilation on Android. - Fix issues with asciidoc and double dashes uses. - Fix memory leaks in the BTF handling code. - Fix leftover problems in the Documentation from the infrastructure originally lifted from the git codebase. - Fix *probe_vfs_getname.sh 'perf test' failures. - Handle fd gaps in 'perf test's test__dso_data_reopen(). - Make sure to show disasembly warnings for 'perf annotate --stdio'. - Fix output from pipe to file and vice-versa in 'perf record/report/script'. - Correct 'perf data -h' output. - Fix wrong comm in system-wide mode with 'perf record --delay'. - Do not allow --for-each-cgroup without cpu in 'perf stat' - Make 'perf test --skip' work on shell tests. - Fix libperf's verbose printing. Misc improvements: - Preparatory patches for multithreading varios 'perf record' phases (synthesizing, opening, recording, etc). - Add sparse context/locking annotations in compiler-types.h, also to help with the multithreading effort. - Optimize the generation of the arch specific erno tables used in 'perf trace'. - Optimize libperf's perf_cpu_map__max(). - Improve ARM's CoreSight warnings. - Report collisions in AUX records. - Improve warnings for the LLVM 'perf test' entry. - Improve the PMU events 'perf test' codebase. - perf test: Do not compare overheads in the zstd comp test - Better support annotation on ARM. - Update 'perf trace's cmd string table to decode sys_bpf() first arg. Vendor events: - Add JSON events and metrics for Intel's Ice Lake, Tiger Lake and Elhart Lake. - Update JSON eventsand metrics for Intel's Cascade Lake and Sky Lake servers. Hardware tracing: - Improvements for the ARM hardware tracing auxtrace support.
