      Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-5.1-20190307' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

Pull perf/core changes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

perf bpf:

  Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

  - Automatically add BTF ELF markers to 'perf trace' BPF programs, so that
    tools such as 'bpftool map dump' can pretty print map keys and values.

perf c2c:

  Jiri Olsa:

  - Fix report for empty NUMA node.

perf diff:

  Jin Yao:

  - Support --time, --cpu, --pid and --tid filter options.

perf probe:

  - Add missing %s lost in the 'msg_flags' recvmmsg arg when adding prefix suppression logic.

perf annotate:

  Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

  - Calculate the max instruction name, align column to that, removing the
    hardcoded max 6 chars and cope with instructions with names longer than that,
    such as vpmovmskb, vpcmpeqb, etc.

kernel:

python scripting:

  Tony Jones:

  - More python3 fixes.

Trivial:

  Yang Wei:

  - Remove needless extra semicolon in clang C++ glue code.

  Adrian Hunter:

  - Improve auxtrace address filter error message when there is no DSO.

  - Fix divide by zero when TSC is not available.

  - Further improvements to the export to sqlite/posgresql python scripts
    and to the GUI sqlviewer, exporting 'parent_id' so that we have enable
    the creation of call trees.

      perf/core: Mark expected switch fall-through · 43aa378b
      Gustavo A. R. Silva authored 
      In preparation to enabling -Wimplicit-fallthrough, mark switch cases
where we are expecting to fall through.

This patch fixes the following warning:

  kernel/events/core.c: In function ‘perf_event_parse_addr_filter’:
  kernel/events/core.c:9154:11: warning: this statement may fall through [-Wimplicit-fallthrough=]
      kernel = 1;
      ~~~~~~~^~~
  kernel/events/core.c:9156:3: note: here
     case IF_SRC_FILEADDR:
     ^~~~

Warning level 3 was used: -Wimplicit-fallthrough=3

This patch is part of the ongoing efforts to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough.

      perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix client IMC events return huge result · 8041ffd3
      Kan Liang authored 
      The client IMC bandwidth events currently return very large values:

  $ perf stat -e uncore_imc/data_reads/ -e uncore_imc/data_writes/ -I 10000 -a

  10.000117222 34,788.76 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/
  10.000117222 8.26 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/
  20.000374584 34,842.89 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/
  20.000374584 10.45 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/
  30.000633299 37,965.29 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/
  30.000633299 323.62 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/
  40.000891548 41,012.88 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/
  40.000891548 6.98 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/
  50.001142480 1,125,899,906,621,494.75 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/
  50.001142480 6.97 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/

The client IMC events are freerunning counters. They still use the
old event encoding format (0x1 for data_read and 0x2 for data write).
The counter bit width is calculated by common code, which assume that
the standard encoding format is used for the freerunning counters.
Error bit width information is calculated.

The patch intends to convert the old client IMC event encoding to the
standard encoding format.

Current common code uses event->attr.config which directly copy from
user space. We should not implicitly modify it for a converted event.
The event->hw.config is used to replace the event->attr.config in
common code.

For client IMC events, the event->attr.config is used to calculate a
converted event with standard encoding format in the custom
event_init(). The converted event is stored in event->hw.config.
For other events of freerunning counters, they already use the standard
encoding format. The same value as event->attr.config is assigned to
event->hw.config in common event_init().

      perf/ring_buffer: Use high order allocations for AUX buffers optimistically · 5768402f
      Alexander Shishkin authored 
      Currently, the AUX buffer allocator will use high-order allocations
for PMUs that don't support hardware scatter-gather chaining to ensure
large contiguous blocks of pages, and always use an array of single
pages otherwise.

There is, however, a tangible performance benefit in using larger chunks
of contiguous memory even in the latter case, that comes from not having
to fetch the next page's address at every page boundary. In particular,
a task running under Intel PT on an Atom CPU shows 1.5%-2% less runtime
penalty with a single multi-page output region in snapshot mode (no PMI)
than with multiple single-page output regions, from ~6% down to ~4%. For
the snapshot mode it does make a difference as it is intended to run over
long periods of time.

For this reason, change the allocation policy to always optimistically
start with the highest possible order when allocating pages for the AUX
buffer, desceding until the allocation succeeds or order zero allocation
fails.
