      perf pmu: Auto-merge PMU events created by prefix or glob match · c199c11d
      Agustin Vega-Frias authored 
      Auto-merge for these events was disabled when auto-merging of non-alias
events was disabled in commit 63ce8449 (perf stat: Only auto-merge events
that are PMU aliases).

Non-merging of legacy events is preserved:

    $ perf stat -ag -e cache-misses,cache-misses sleep 1

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                86,323      cache-misses
                86,323      cache-misses

           1.002623307 seconds time elapsed

But prefix or glob matching auto-merges the events created:

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ sleep 1

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                   328      l3cache/read-miss/

           1.002627008 seconds time elapsed

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache_0_[01]/read-miss/ sleep 1

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                   172      l3cache/read-miss/

           1.002627008 seconds time elapsed

As with events created with aliases, auto-merging can be suppressed with
the --no-merge option:

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge sleep 1

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                    67      l3cache/read-miss/
                    67      l3cache/read-miss/
                    63      l3cache/read-miss/
                    60      l3cache/read-miss/

      perf pmu: Display pmu name when printing unmerged events in stat · 8c5421c0
      Agustin Vega-Frias authored 
      To simplify creation of events accross multiple instances of the same
type of PMU stat supports two methods for creating multiple events from
a single event specification:

1. A prefix or glob can be used in the PMU name.
2. Aliases, which are listed immediately after the Kernel PMU events
   by perf list, are used.

When the --no-merge option is passed and these events are displayed
individually the PMU name is lost and it's not possible to see which
count corresponds to which pmu:

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                    67      l3cache/read-miss/
                    67      l3cache/read-miss/
                    63      l3cache/read-miss/
                    60      l3cache/read-miss/

           0.001675706 seconds time elapsed

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                    12      l3cache_read_miss
                    17      l3cache_read_miss
                    10      l3cache_read_miss
                     8      l3cache_read_miss

           0.001661305 seconds time elapsed

This change adds the original pmu name to the event. For dynamic pmu
events the pmu name is restored in the event name:

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                    63      l3cache_0_3/read-miss/
                    74      l3cache_0_1/read-miss/
                    64      l3cache_0_2/read-miss/
                    74      l3cache_0_0/read-miss/

           0.001675706 seconds time elapsed

For alias events the name is added after the event name:

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                    10      l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_3]
                    12      l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_1]
                    10      l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_2]
                    17      l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_0]

      perf pmu: Support wildcards on pmu name in dynamic pmu events · b2b9d3a3
      Agustin Vega-Frias authored 
      Starting on v4.12 event parsing code for dynamic pmu events already
supports prefix-based matching of multiple pmus when creating dynamic
events. E.g., in a system with the following dynamic pmus:

    mypmu_0
    mypmu_1
    mypmu_2
    mypmu_4

passing mypmu/<config>/ as an event spec will result in the creation of
the event in all of the pmus. This change expands this matching through
the use of fnmatch so glob-like expressions can be used to create events
in multiple pmus. E.g., in the system described above if a user only
wants to create the event in mypmu_0 and mypmu_1, mypmu_[01]/<config>/
can be passed.

      perf tools: Fix trigger class trigger_on() · de19e5c3
      Adrian Hunter authored 
      trigger_on() means that the trigger is available but not ready, however
trigger_on() was making it ready. That can segfault if the signal comes
before trigger_ready(). e.g. (USR2 signal delivery not shown)

  $ perf record -e intel_pt//u -S sleep 1

      perf stat: Fix CVS output format for non-supported counters · 40c21898
      Ilya Pronin authored 
      When printing stats in CSV mode, 'perf stat' appends extra separators
when a counter is not supported:

<not supported>,,L1-dcache-store-misses,mesos/bd442f34-2b4a-47df-b966-9b281f9f56fc,0,100.00,,,,

Which causes a failure when parsing fields. The numbers of separators
should be the same for each line, no matter if the counter is or not
supported.

      Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.17-20180305' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

- Be more robust when drawing arrows in the annotation TUI, avoiding a
  segfault when jump instructions have as a target addresses in functions
  other that the one currently being annotated. The full fix will come in
  the following days, when jumping to other functions will work as call
  instructions (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Allow asking for the maximum allowed sample rate in 'top' and
  'record', i.e. 'perf record -F max' will read the
  kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate sysctl and use it (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- When the user specifies a freq above kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate,
  Throttle it down to that max freq, and warn the user about it, add as
  well --strict-freq so that the previous behaviour of not starting the
  session when the desired freq can't be used can be selected (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Find 'call' instruction target symbol at parsing time, used so far in
  the TUI, part of the infrastructure changes that will end up allowing
  for jumps to navigate to other functions, just like 'call'
  instructions. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Use xyarray dimensions to iterate fds in 'perf stat' (Andi Kleen)

- Ignore threads for which the current user hasn't permissions when
  enabling system-wide --per-thread (Jin Yao)

- Fix some backtrace perf test cases to use 'perf record' + 'perf script'
  instead, till 'perf trace' starts using ordered_events or equivalent
  to avoid symbol resolving artifacts due to reordering of
  PERF_RECORD_MMAP events (Jiri Olsa)

- Fix crash in 'perf record' pipe mode, it needs to allocate the ID
  array even for a single event, unlike non-pipe mode (Jiri Olsa)

- Make annoying fallback message on older kernels with newer 'perf top'
  binaries trying to use overwrite mode and that not being present
  in the older kernels (Kan Liang)

- Switch last users of old APIs to the newer perf_mmap__read_event()
  one, then discard those old mmap read forward APIs (Kan Liang)

- Fix the usage on the 'perf kallsyms' man page (Sangwon Hong)

- Simplify cgroup arguments when tracking multiple events (weiping zhang)
