Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' 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: New features: - Allow using trace events fields as sort order keys, making 'perf evlist --trace_fields' show those, and then the user can select a subset and use like: perf top -e sched:sched_switch -s prev_comm,next_comm That works as well in 'perf report' when handling files containing tracepoints. The default when just tracepoint events are found in a perf.data file is to format it like ftrace, using the libtraceevent formatters, plugins, etc (Namhyung Kim) - Add support in 'perf script' to process 'perf stat record' generated files, culminating in a python perf script that calculates CPI (Cycles per Instruction) (Jiri Olsa) - Show random perf tool tips in the 'perf report' bottom line (Namhyung Kim) - perf report now defaults to --group if the perf.data file has grouped events, try it with: # perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}' -a sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.093 MB perf.data (1247 samples) ] # perf report # Samples: 1K of event 'anon group { cycles, instructions }' # Event count (approx.): 1955219195 # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol 2.86% 0.22% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] intel_idle 1.05% 0.33% firefox libxul.so [.] js::SetObjectElement 1.05% 0.00% kworker/0:3 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] gen6_ring_get_seqno 0.88% 0.17% chrome chrome [.] 0x0000000000ee27ab 0.65% 0.86% firefox libxul.so [.] js::ValueToId<(js::AllowGC)1> 0.64% 0.23% JS Helper libxul.so [.] js::SplayTree<js::jit::LiveRange*, js::jit::LiveRange>::splay 0.62% 1.27% firefox libxul.so [.] js::GetIterator 0.61% 1.74% firefox libxul.so [.] js::NativeSetProperty 0.61% 0.31% firefox libxul.so [.] js::SetPropertyByDefining User visible fixes: - Coect data mmaps so that the DWARF unwinder can handle usecases needing them, like softice (Jiri Olsa) - Decay callchains in fractal mode, fixing up cases where 'perf top -g' would show entries with more than 100% (Namhyung Kim) Infrastructure changes: - Sync tools/lib with the lib/ in the kernel sources for find_bit.c and move bitmap.[ch] from tools/perf/util/ to tools/lib/ (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - No need to set attr.sample_freq in some 'perf test' entries that only want to deal with PERF_RECORD_ meta-events, improve a bit error output for CQM test (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Fix python binding build, adding some missing object files now required due to cpumap using find_bit stuff (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - tools/build improvemnts (Jiri Olsa) - Add more files to cscope/ctags databases (Jiri Olsa) - Do not show 'trace' in 'perf help' if it is not compiled in (Jiri Olsa) - Make perf_evlist__open() open evsels with their cpus and threads, like perf record does, making them consistent (Adrian Hunter) - Fix pmu snapshot initialization bug (Stephane Eranian) - Add missing headers in perf's MANIFEST (Wang Nan) Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Currently we don't synthesize data mmap by default. It depends on -d option, that enables data address sampling. But we've seen cases (softice) where DWARF unwinder went through non executable mmaps, which we need to lookup in MAP__VARIABLE tree. Making data mmaps to be synthesized for dwarf unwind as well.

perf evlist: Make perf_evlist__open() open evsels with their cpus and threads (like perf record does) 'perf record' uses perf_evsel__open() to open events and passes the evsel->cpus and evsel->threads. Many tests and some tools instead use perf_evlist__open() which passes instead evlist->cpus and evlist->threads. Make perf_evlist__open() follow the 'perf record' behaviour so that a consistent approach is taken.

We currently set 'overhead' and 'overhead_children' as default sort keys within perf_hpp__init function by directly adding into the sort list. This patch adds 'overhead' and 'overhead_children' in text form into sort_keys and let them be added by standard sort dimension interface. We need to eliminate dirrect sort_list additions to be able to add support for hists specific sort keys.

The trace command still appears in help message when you run simple 'perf' command. It's because the generate-cmdlist.sh does not care about the HAVE_LIBAUDIT_SUPPORT dependency of trace command and puts it into generated common_cmds array.

The event group view feature is to see related events together. To use the group view, events should be recorded as a group with a dedicated syntax of surrounding events by braces (-e '{ evt1, evt2, ... }'). Also 'perf report' also requires the --group option to enable it. However it's almost always beneficial to use the group view to see the group events as it's more expressive. And I think it's more natural to see events together if they are recorded as a group. Thus this patch changes the default value to enable it. If users don't want to see like it and keep the original behavior, they can set the report.group config variable to false and/or use --no-group option in the 'perf report' command line.

The commit that introduced it should've moved it to the same place, plus the 'tools/' prefix, but instead moved it to a bogus tools/lib/util/ directory, being the only file there. Move it to tools/lib/find_bit.c, picking the name for the file where these routines live since: 8f6f19dd ("lib: move find_last_bit to lib/find_next_bit.c") Next step is to make tools/lib/find_bit.c to differ from lib/find_bit.c just in removing what is not used by tools/.

We were asking for a 4kHz sample_freq, making the test fail needlessly when the system reduced /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate below that. In this test we only look at the PERF_SAMPLE_TIME fields in PERF_RECORD_ meta events, no need to set sample_freq. Thanks to Namhyung for suggesting that max_sample_rate could be the reason for the test failure, seeing the 'perf test -vv' output I sent. Before: # echo 1000 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate # perf test TSC 45: Test converting perf time to TSC : FAILED!

This patch fixes a bug in __perf_pmu__new_alias() whereby the alias->snapshot field was not initialized to false. This led to random alias->snapshot value for an alias and was breaking some measurements such as: $ perf stat -a -e uncore_imc/data_reads/ -I 1000 sleep 100 Because the event ended up being treated as snapshot mode, when it is not.

Adding stat-cpi.py as an example of how to do stat scripting. It computes the CPI metrics from cycles and instructions events. The CPI is based performance metric showing the Cycles Per Instructions ratio, which helps to identify cycles-hungry code.

We can't convert u16 cpu_map_entries::cpu[x] value directly to int, because it could hold -1, which would be converted as 65535. Adding special treatment for -1, which is not real cpu number, to be converted to (int -1).

Add support to get stat events data in perf python scripts. The python script shall implement the following new interface to process stat data: def stat__<event_name>_[<modifier>](cpu, thread, time, val, ena, run): - is called for every stat event for given counter, if user monitors 'cycles,instructions:u" following callbacks should be defined: def stat__cycles(cpu, thread, time, val, ena, run): def stat__instructions_u(cpu, thread, time, val, ena, run): def stat__interval(time): - is called for every interval with its time, in non interval mode it's called after last stat event with total measured time in ns The rest of the current interface stays untouched.. Please check example CPI metrics script in following patch with command line examples in changelogs.

For pipe sessions we need to keep sample_type zero, because script's perf_evsel__check_attr is triggered by sample_type != 0, and the check would fail on stat session. I was tempted to keep it zero unconditionally, but the pipe session is sufficient. In perf.data session we are guarded by HEADER_STAT feature.
