PMU caps are written as HEADER_PMU_CAPS or for the special case of the PMU "cpu" as HEADER_CPU_PMU_CAPS. As the PMU "cpu" is special, and not any "core" PMU, the logic had become broken and core PMUs not called "cpu" were not having their caps written. This affects ARM and s390 non-hybrid PMUs. Simplify the PMU caps writing logic to scan one fewer time and to be more explicit in its behavior. Fixes: 178ddf3b ("perf header: Avoid hybrid PMU list in write_pmu_caps") Reported-by:

Unit with the PMU name is appended to desc in jevents.py, but on hybrid platforms it causes the desc to differ from the regular non-hybrid system with a PMU of 'cpu'. Having differing descs means the events don't deduplicate. To make the perf list output not differ, append the Unit on again in the perf list printing code. On x86 reduces the binary size by 409,600 bytes or about 4%. Update pmu-events test expectations to match the differently generated pmu-events.c code. Signed-off-by:

All required libraries have been imported and make sure that none of them are external dependencies. To achieve this, created a virt env and verified. Modified usage information and added combined command. Modified the main() function to read the --save-only command-line option and set the output_file variable accordingly. Modified the trace_end() function to check for the output_file variable. If it is set, the profiler data is saved to a local file in Gecko Profile format, or the profiler.firefox.com is opened on the default browser. Included trace_begin() to initialize the Firefox Profiler and launch the default browser to display the profiler.firefox.com. Added a new function launchFirefox() to start a local server and launch the profiler UI on the default browser with the appropriate URL. Created the "CORSRequestHandler" class to enable Cross-Origin Resource Sharing. Summary: This integration now includes a exiting feature to conveniently host the Gecko Profile data on a local server and open it directly in the default web browser. This means that users can now effortlessly visualize and analyze the profiler results with just a single click. The addition of the --save-only command-line option allows users to save the profiler output to a local file in Gecko Profile format, but the real highlight lies in the capability to seamlessly launch a local server, making the data accessible to Firefox Profiler via a web browser. In addition, it's important to highlight that all data are hosted locally, eliminating any concerns about data privacy rules and regulations. Signed-off-by:

Rather than load all sysfs events then parsing all JSON events and merging with ones that already exist. When a sysfs event is loaded, look for a corresponding JSON event and merge immediately. To simplify the logic, early exit the perf_pmu__new_alias function if an alias is attempted to be added twice - as merging has already been explicitly handled. Fix the copying of terms to a merged alias and some ENOMEM paths. Signed-off-by:

Rather than read a sysfs events file into a 256 byte char buffer, pass the FILE* directly to the lex/yacc parser. This avoids there being a maximum events file size.

Prior to this change a cpuid would map to a list of events where the PMU would be encoded alongside the event information. This change breaks apart each group of events so that there is a group per PMU. A new table is added with the PMU's name and the list of events, the original table now holding an array of these per PMU tables. These changes are to make it easier to get per PMU information about events, rather than the current approach of scanning all events. The perf binary size with BPF skeletons on x86 is reduced by about 1%. The unidentified PMU is now always expanded to "cpu". Signed-off-by:

In order to be able to lazily compute aliases/events for a PMU, move the struct perf_pmu_alias into pmu.c. Add perf_pmu__find_event and perf_pmu__for_each_event that take a callback that is called for the found event or for each event. The layout of struct pmu and the event/alias list is unchanged but the API is altered so that aliases are no longer directly accessed, allowing for later changes. Signed-off-by:

The sysfs format files are loaded eagerly in a PMU. Add a flag so that we create the format but only load the contents when necessary. Reduce the size of the value in struct perf_pmu_format and avoid holes so there is no additional space requirement. For "perf stat -e cycles true" this reduces the number of openat calls from 648 to 573 (about 12%). The benchmark pmu scan speed is improved by roughly 5%.

Previously in the times of jevents.c, we would raise an exception for this. This is still invalid, even though the current code just ignores such an event. Re-introduce code to raise an exception for when no definition exists to help catch as many invalid JSONs as possible.
