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: User visible changes: - Add 'perf record' --all-user/--all-kernel options, so that one can tell that all the events in the command line should be restricted to the user or kernel levels (Jiri Olsa), i.e.: perf record -e cycles:u,instructions:u is equivalent to: perf record --all-user -e cycles,instructions - Fix percentage update on key press, due to the buffering code (that creates hist_entries that will later be consumed) touching per hists state that is used by the display thread (Namhyung Kim) - Bail out when event modifiers not supported by 'perf stat' are specified, i.e.: (Wang Nan) # perf stat -e cycles/no-inherit/ usleep 1 event syntax error: 'cycles/no-inherit/' \___ 'no-inherit' is not usable in 'perf stat' # perf stat -e cycles/foo/ usleep 1 event syntax error: 'cycles/foo/' \___ unknown term valid terms: config,config1,config2,name # - Enable setting names for legacy cache, raw and numeric events, e.g: (Wang Nan) # perf record -e cycles -e 4:0x6530160/name=evtx,call-graph=fp/ -a sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.659 MB perf.data (844 samples) ] # perf evlist cycles evtx # Miscelaneous/Infrastructure changes: - Handled scaled == -1 case for counters in 'perf stat', fixing recent, only in perf/core, regression (Andi Kleen) - Reference count the cpu and thread maps at set_maps(), fixing the 'object code reading' 'perf test' entry when it was requesting a perf_event_attr.sample_freq > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Improve perf_evlist__strerror_open() to provide hints for -EINVAL due to perf_event_attr.sample_freq > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Add checks to various callchain and histogram routines (Namhyung Kim) - Fix checking asprintf return value when parsing additional event config terms (Wang Nan) Signed-off-by:

Currently hists__collapse_resort() and hists__collapse_insert_entry() don't return an error code. Now that callchain_merge() can check for errors, abort and pass the error to the user. A later patch can add more work which also can fail. Signed-off-by:

The append_chain() might return either result of match_chain() or other (error) code. But match_chain() can return any value in s64 type so it's hard to check the error case. Add new enum match_result and make match_chain() return non-negative values only so that we can check the error cases. Signed-off-by:

The create_child() in add_child() can return NULL in case of memory allocation failure. So check the return value and bail out. The proper error handling will be added later. Signed-off-by:

Currently 'perf top --tui' decrements percentage of all entries on any key press. This is because it adds total period as new samples are added to hists. As perf-top does it currently but added samples are not passed to the display thread, the percentages are decresing continuously. So separate total period stat into a different variable so that it cannot affect the output total period. This new total period stats are used only for calcualating callchain percent limit.

This patch allows setting config terms for raw and numeric events. For example: # perf stat -e cycles/name=cyc/ ls ... 1821108 cyc ... # perf stat -e r6530160/name=event/ ls ... 1103195 event ... # perf record -e cycles -e 4:0x6530160/name=evtx,call-graph=fp/ -a sleep 1 ... # perf report --stdio ... # Samples: 124 of event 'cycles' 46.61% 0.00% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] [k] cpu_startup_entry 41.26% 0.00% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] [k] start_secondary ... # Samples: 91 of event 'evtx' ... 93.76% 0.00% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] [k] cpu_startup_entry | ---cpu_startup_entry | |--66.63%--call_cpuidle | cpuidle_enter | | ... 3 test cases are introduced to test config terms for symbol, raw and numeric events. Committer note: Further testing shows that we can retrieve the event name using 'perf evlist -v' and looking at the 'config' perf_event_attr field, i.e.: # perf record -e cycles -e 4:0x6530160/name=evtx,call-graph=fp/ -a sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.724 MB perf.data (2076 samples) ] # perf evlist cycles evtx # perf evlist -v cycles: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1 evtx: type: 4, size: 112, config: 0x6530160, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CALLCHAIN|CPU|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, freq: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1 # Signed-off-by: -

To remove duplicated code that differs only in using the matching '/a,b,c/' part or NULL if no event configuration is done ('//' or no pair of slashes at all).

'perf stat' accepts some config terms but doesn't apply them. For example: # perf stat -e 'instructions/no-inherit/' -e 'instructions/inherit/' bash # ls # exit Performance counter stats for 'bash': 266258061 instructions/no-inherit/ 266258061 instructions/inherit/ 1.402183915 seconds time elapsed The result is confusing, because user may expect the first 'instructions' event exclude the 'ls' command. This patch forbid most of these config terms for 'perf stat'. Result: # ./perf stat -e 'instructions/no-inherit/' -e 'instructions/inherit/' bash event syntax error: 'instructions/no-inherit/' \___ 'no-inherit' is not usable in 'perf stat' ... We can add blocked config terms back when 'perf stat' really supports them. This patch also removes unavailable config term from error message: # ./perf stat -e 'instructions/badterm/' ls event syntax error: 'instructions/badterm/' \___ unknown term valid terms: config,config1,config2,name # ./perf stat -e 'cpu/badterm/' ls event syntax error: 'cpu/badterm/' \___ unknown term valid terms: pc,any,inv,edge,cmask,event,in_tx,ldlat,umask,in_tx_cp,offcore_rsp,config,config1,config2,name Signed-off-by: -

The name of bpf_prog_priv__clear() doesn't follow perf's naming convention. bpf_prog_priv__delete() seems to be a better name. However, bpf_prog_priv__delete() should be a method of 'struct bpf_prog_priv', but its first parameter is 'struct bpf_program'. It is callback from libbpf to clear priv structures when destroying a bpf program. It is actually a method of bpf_program (libbpf object), but bpf_program__ functions should be provided by libbpf. This patch removes the prefix of that function. Signed-off-by:

Using 4 kHz is not necessary and sometimes is more than what was auto-tuned: # dmesg | grep max_sample_rate | tail -2 [ 2499.144373] perf interrupt took too long (2501 > 2500), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 50000 [ 3592.413606] perf interrupt took too long (5069 > 5000), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 25000 Simulating a auto-tune of 2000 we make the test fail, as reported by Steven Noonan for one of his machines, so reduce it to 500 HZ, it is enough to get a good number of samples for this test: # perf test -v 21 2>&1 | grep '^Reading object code for memory address' | tee /tmp/out | tail -5 Reading object code for memory address: 0x479f40 Reading object code for memory address: 0x7f29b7eea80d Reading object code for memory address: 0x7f29b7eea80d Reading object code for memory address: 0x7f29b7eea800 Reading object code for memory address: 0xffffffff813b2f23 [root@jouet ~]# wc -l /tmp/out 40 /tmp/out [root@jouet ~]# For systems that auto-tune below that, the previous patches will tell the user what is happening so that he may either ignore the result of this test or bump /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.

If CPU_UP_PREPARE is called it is not guaranteed, that a previously allocated and assigned hash has been freed already, but perf_event_init_cpu() unconditionally allocates and assignes a new hash if the swhash is referenced. By overwriting the pointer the existing hash is not longer accessible. Verify that there is no hash assigned on this cpu before allocating and assigning a new one. Signed-off-by:

If CPU_DOWN_PREPARE fails the perf hotplug notifier is called for CPU_DOWN_FAILED and calls perf_event_init_cpu(), which checks whether the swhash is referenced. If yes it allocates a new hash and stores the pointer in the per cpu data structure. But at this point the cpu is still online, so there must be a valid hash already. By overwriting the pointer the existing hash is not longer accessible. Remove the CPU_DOWN_FAILED state, as there is nothing to (re)allocate. Signed-off-by:

If CPU_UP_PREPARE fails the perf hotplug code calls perf_event_exit_cpu(), which is a pointless exercise. The cpu is not online, so the smp function calls return -ENXIO. So the result is a list walk to call noops. Remove it. Signed-off-by:
