[colors]

perf stat: Basic support for TopDown in perf stat
Add basic plumbing for TopDown in perf stat
TopDown is intended to replace the frontend cycles idle/ backend cycles
idle metrics in standard perf stat output. These metrics are not
reliable in many workloads, due to out of order effects.
This implements a new --topdown mode in perf stat (similar to
--transaction) that measures the pipe line bottlenecks using
standardized formulas. The measurement can be all done with 5 counters
(one fixed counter)
The result are four metrics:
FrontendBound, BackendBound, BadSpeculation, Retiring
that describe the CPU pipeline behavior on a high level.
The full top down methology has many hierarchical metrics. This
implementation only supports level 1 which can be collected without
multiplexing. A full implementation of top down on top of perf is
available in pmu-tools toplev. (http://github.com/andikleen/pmu-tools)
The current version works on Intel Core CPUs starting with Sandy Bridge,
and Atom CPUs starting with Silvermont. In principle the generic
metrics should be also implementable on other out of order CPUs.
TopDown level 1 uses a set of abstracted metrics which are generic to
out of order CPU cores (although some CPUs may not implement all of
them):
topdown-total-slots Available slots in the pipeline
topdown-slots-issued Slots issued into the pipeline
topdown-slots-retired Slots successfully retired
topdown-fetch-bubbles Pipeline gaps in the frontend
topdown-recovery-bubbles Pipeline gaps during recovery
from misspeculation
These metrics then allow to compute four useful metrics:
FrontendBound, BackendBound, Retiring, BadSpeculation.
Add a new --topdown options to enable events. When --topdown is
specified set up events for all topdown events supported by the kernel.
Add topdown-* as a special case to the event parser, as is needed for
all events containing -.
The actual code to compute the metrics is in follow-on patches.
v2: Use standard sysctl read function.
v3: Move x86 specific code to arch/
v4: Enable --metric-only implicitly for topdown.
v5: Add --single-thread option to not force per core mode
v6: Fix output order of topdown metrics
v7: Allow combining with -d
v8: Remove --single-thread again
v9: Rename functions, adding arch_ and topdown_.
v10: Expand man page and describe TopDown better
Paste intro into commit description.

perf script: Show call graphs when 1st event doesn't have it but some other has
There's a display inconsistency when there are multiple tracepoint
events, some of which have the 'call-graph' config option set but the
first one hasn't, i.e. the whole logic for call graph processing is
enabled only if the first tracepoint event has call-graph set.
For instance, if we record signal_deliver with call-graph and
signal_generate without:
$ perf record -g -a -e signal:signal_deliver -e signal:signal_generate/call-graph=no/
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (2 samples) ]
$ perf script

Then we exchange the order of these two events in commandline, and keep
signal_generate without call-graph.
$ perf record -g -a -e signal:signal_generate/call-graph=no/ -e signal:signal_deliver
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (2 samples) ]
$ perf script

This time, the callchain of the event signal_deliver disappeared. The
problem is caused by that perf only checks for the first evsel in evlist
and decides if callchain should be printed.
This patch traverses all evsels in evlist to see if any of them have
callchains, and shows the right result:

perf/x86/intel: Add topdown events to Intel Core
Add declarations for the events needed for topdown to the
Intel big core CPUs starting with Sandy Bridge. We need
to report different values if HyperThreading is on or off.
The only thing this patch does is to export some events
in sysfs.
topdown level 1 uses a set of abstracted metrics which
are generic to out of order CPU cores (although some
CPUs may not implement all of them):
topdown-total-slots Available slots in the pipeline
topdown-slots-issued Slots issued into the pipeline
topdown-slots-retired Slots successfully retired
topdown-fetch-bubbles Pipeline gaps in the frontend
topdown-recovery-bubbles Pipeline gaps during recovery
from misspeculation
A slot is a single operation in the CPU pipe line.
These metrics then allow to compute four useful metrics:
FrontendBound, BackendBound, Retiring, BadSpeculation.
The formulas to compute the metrics are generic, they
only change based on the availability on the abstracted
input values.
The kernel declares the events supported by the current
CPU and their scaling factors (such as the pipeline width)
and perf stat then computes the formulas based on the
available metrics. This is similar how existing
perf metrics, such as TSC metrics or IPC, are implemented.
This abstracts all CPU pipe line specific knowledge in the
kernel driver, but still avoids the need for larger scale perf
interface changes.
For HyperThreading the any bit is needed to get accurate
values when both threads are executing. This implies that
the events can only be collected as root or with
perf_event_paranoid=-1 for now.
The basic scheme is based on the following paper:

tools/perf: Handle -EOPNOTSUPP for sampling events
This allows (with a previous change to the perf error return ABI) for
calling out in userspace the exact reason for perf record failing
when PMU doesn't support overflow interrupts.
Note that this needs to be put ahead of existing precise_ip check as
that gets hit otherwise for the sampling fail case as well.

perf/x86/intel/uncore: Locate specific box by checking full device info
Some platforms, e.g. Knights Landing, use a common PCI device ID for
multiple instances of an uncore PMU device type. So it is impossible to
locate the specific instances only by PCI device ID.
The current code specially handles Knights Landing by arbitrarily pointing
an instance to an unused uncore box. However, we still have no idea
which uncore device is mapped to which box.
Furthermore, there could be more platforms which use a common PCI device ID
for uncore devices. We have to specially handle them one by one.
This patch records full device information (slot, func, and device ID)
in id_table[]. So the probe function can point the instance to a specific
uncore box by checking the full device information.

perf/core: Fix implicitly enable dynamic interrupt throttle
This patch fixes an issue which was introduced by commit:
91a612eea9a3 ("perf/core: Fix dynamic interrupt throttle")
... which commit unconditionally sets the perf_sample_allowed_ns value
to !0. But that could trigger a bug in the following corner case:
The user can disable the dynamic interrupt throttle mechanism by setting
perf_cpu_time_max_percent to 0. Then they change perf_event_max_sample_rate.
For this case, the mechanism will be enabled implicitly, because
perf_sample_allowed_ns becomes !0 - which is not what we want.
This patch only updates perf_sample_allowed_ns when the dynamic
interrupt throttle mechanism is enabled.

perf/core: Optimize side-band event delivery
The perf_event_aux() function iterates all PMUs and all events in
their respective per-CPU contexts to find the events to deliver
side-band records to.
For example, the brk test case in lkp triggers many mmap() operations,
which, if we're also running perf, results in many perf_event_aux()
invocations.
If we enable uncore PMU support (even when uncore events are not used),
dozens of uncore PMUs will be iterated, which can significantly
decrease brk_test's throughput.
For example, the brk throughput:
without uncore PMUs:
2647573 ops_per_sec
with uncore PMUs:
1768444 ops_per_sec
... a 33% reduction.
To get at the per-CPU events that need side-band records, this patch
puts these events on a per-CPU list, this avoids iterating the PMUs
and any events that do not need side-band records.
Per task events are unchanged to avoid extra overhead on the context
switch paths.

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
User visible/kernel ABI changes:
- Per event callchain limit: Recently we introduced a sysctl to tune the
max-stack for all events for which callchains were requested:
$ sysctl kernel.perf_event_max_stack
kernel.perf_event_max_stack = 127
Now this patch introduces a way to configure this per event, i.e. this
becomes possible:
$ perf record -e sched:*/max-stack=2/ -e block:*/max-stack=10/ -a
allowing finer tuning of how much buffer space callchains use.
This uses an u16 from the reserved space at the end, leaving another
u16 for future use.
There has been interest in even finer tuning, namely to control the
max stack for kernel and userspace callchains separately. Further
discussion is needed, we may for instance use the remaining u16 for
that and when it is present, assume that the sample_max_stack introduced
in this patch applies for the kernel, and the u16 left is used for
limiting the userspace callchain. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

perf core: Per event callchain limit
Additionally to being able to control the system wide maximum depth via
/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack, now we are able to ask for
different depths per event, using perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack for
that.
This uses an u16 hole at the end of perf_event_attr, that, when
perf_event_attr.sample_type has the PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN, if
sample_max_stack is zero, means use perf_event_max_stack, otherwise
it'll be bounds checked under callchain_mutex.

perf record: Rename variable to make code clear
record__mmap_read() writes data from ring buffer into perf.data. 'head'

'old' is maintained by perf, points to the record read in previous
round. record__mmap_read() saves data from 'old' to 'head' to
perf.data.
The names of these variables are not very intutive. In addition,
when dealing with backward writing ring buffer, the md->prev pointer
should point to 'head' instead of the last byte it got.
Add 'start' and 'end' pointer to make code clear and set md->prev to
'head' instead of the moved 'old' pointer. This patch doesn't change
behavior since:

- Store vdso buildid unconditionally, as it appears in callchains and

perf stat: Use cpu-clock event for cpu targets
Currently 'perf stat' always counts task-clock event by default. But
it's somewhat confusing for system-wide targets (especially with 'sleep
N' as the 'sleep' task just sleeps and doesn't use cputime). Changing
to cpu-clock event instead for that case makes more sense IMHO.

perf stat: Update runtime using cpu-clock event
Currently only the task-clock event updates the runtime_nsec so it
cannot show the metric when using cpu-clock events. However cpu clock
works basically same as task-clock, so no need to not update the runtime
IMHO.

perf symbols: Store vdso buildid unconditionally
When unwinding callchains on a different machine, vdso info should be

namei: Improve hash mixing if CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS
The hash mixing between adding the next 64 bits of name
