The objdump utility has useful --prefix / --prefix-strip options to
allow changing source code file names hardcoded into executables' debug
info. Add options to 'perf report', 'perf top' and 'perf annotate',
which are then passed to objdump.

The 'perf kvm' subcommand has options that it in turn passes to other
perf subcommands such as 'report' and 'record', particularly -i and -o
end up setting the same variable that will then be used for 'record's -o
and report '-i', which ends up being confusing, leading some to think
that both -i and -o can be used with 'report'.
Improve the man page to state that -i is used with the post-processing
subcommands while -o is used just with 'record' and that to save the
output of 'report' one should simply redirect its output to a file.
Noticed while reading the https://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Perf_events
page.

To allow individual events to be selected for AUX area sampling, add
aux-sample-size config term. attr.aux_sample_size is updated by
auxtrace_parse_sample_options() so that the existing validation will see
the value. Any event that has a non-zero aux_sample_size will cause AUX
area sampling to be configured, irrespective of the --aux-sample option.

Add a 'perf record' option '--aux-sample' to request AUX area sampling.
AUX area sampling uses an overwriting buffer much like snapshot mode, so
adjust the AUX buffer mmapping accordingly. To make it easy to queue
samples for decoding, synthesize an ID index.

Perf record with verbose=2 already prints this information along with
whole lot of other traces which requires lot of scrolling. Introduce
an option to print only perf_event_open() arguments and return value.

Committer notes:
Just like the 'verbose' variable this new 'debug_peo_args' needs to be
added to util/python.c, since we don't link the debug.o file in the
python binding, which ended up making 'perf test python' fail with:
# perf test -v python
18: 'import perf' in python :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 19237
Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: debug_peo_args
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
'import perf' in python: FAILED!
#
After adding that new variable to util/python.c:
# perf test -v python
18: 'import perf' in python :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 22364
test child finished with 0
---- end ----

It would be useful to support sorting for all blocks by the sampled
cycles percent per block. This is useful to concentrate on the globally
hottest blocks.
This patch implements a new option "--total-cycles" which sorts all
blocks by 'Sampled Cycles%'. The 'Sampled Cycles%' is the percent:
percent = block sampled cycles aggregation / total sampled cycles
Note that, this patch only supports "--stdio" mode.
For example,
# perf record -b ./div
# perf report --total-cycles --stdio
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
#
# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 2M of event 'cycles'

The patch adds a new option to limit the output file size, then based on
it, we can create a wrapper of the perf command that uses the option to
avoid exhausting the disk space by the unconscious user.
In order to make the perf.data parsable, we just limit the sample data
size, since the perf.data consists of many headers and sample data and
other data, the actual size of the recorded file will bigger than the
setting value.
Testing it:
# ./perf record -a -g --max-size=10M
Couldn't synthesize bpf events.
[ perf record: perf size limit reached (10249 KB), stopping session ]
[ perf record: Woken up 32 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 10.133 MB perf.data (71964 samples) ]
# ls -lh perf.data
-rw------- 1 root root 11M Oct 22 14:32 perf.data
# ./perf record -a -g --max-size=10K
[ perf record: perf size limit reached (10 KB), stopping session ]
Couldn't synthesize bpf events.
[ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.546 MB perf.data (69 samples) ]
# ls -l perf.data

Add a new 'perf record' option '--kcore' which will put a copy of
/proc/kcore, kallsyms and modules into a perf.data directory. Note, that
without the --kcore option, output goes to a file as previously. The
tools' -o and -i options work with either a file name or directory name.
Example:
$ sudo perf record --kcore uname
$ sudo tree perf.data
perf.data
├── kcore_dir
│ ├── kallsyms
│ ├── kcore
│ └── modules
└── data
$ sudo perf script -v

Support directory output that contains a regular perf.data file, named
"data". By default the directory is named perf.data i.e.
perf.data
└── data
Most of the infrastructure to support a directory is already there. This
patch makes the changes needed to support the format above.
Presently there is no 'perf record' option to output a directory.
This is preparation for adding support for putting a copy of /proc/kcore in
the directory.

There are some deprecated events listed by perf list. But we can't
remove them from perf list with ease because some old scripts may use
them.
Deprecated events are old names of renamed events. When an event gets
renamed the old name is kept around for some time and marked with
Deprecated. The newer Intel event lists in the tree already have these
headers.
So we need to keep them in the event list, but provide a new option to
show them. The new option is "--deprecated".
With this patch, the deprecated events are hidden by default but they
can be displayed when option "--deprecated" is enabled.

'perf record' has supported --all-kernel / --all-user to configure all
used events to run in kernel space or run in user space. But 'perf stat'
doesn't support these options.
It would be useful to support these options in 'perf stat' too to keep
the same semantics available in both tools.

This patch prints the stddev and hist for the cycles diff of program
block. It can help us to understand if the cycles is noisy or not.
This patch is inspired by Andi Kleen's patch:
https://lwn.net/Articles/600471/
We create new option '--cycles-hist'.
Example:
perf record -b ./div
perf record -b ./div
perf diff -c cycles

Similar to what is in 'perf record', works just like there:
# perf trace -e msr:*
328.297 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
328.302 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
328.306 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
328.317 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
328.322 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
328.327 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
328.331 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
328.336 :0/0 msr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
328.340 :0/0 ^Cmsr:write_msr(msr: FS_BASE, val: 140240388381888)
#
So, for a system wide trace session looking at the write_msr tracepoint
we see a flood of MSR_FS_BASE, we need to get the number for that:
# grep FS_BASE /tmp/build/perf/trace/beauty/generated/x86_arch_MSRs_array.c
[0xc0000100 - x86_64_specific_MSRs_offset] = "FS_BASE",
#
And then use it in a filter:

Ok, just another form of KVM to emit MSRs :-)
Next step: elliminate those greps by getting the filter expression,
looking for arg names, then for the arrays associated with it to do a
reverse lookup.
Also allow those filters to be associated with strace-like syscall
names.
After that: augment the 'val' arg for 'msr:write_msr' based on the first
arg, 'msr'.
Then, do that with eBPF too, not just with tracepoint filters.

So far we used the libtraceevent printing routines when showing
tracepoint arguments, but since 'perf trace' has a lot of beautifiers
for syscall arguments, and since some of those can be used to augment
tracepoint arguments, add a routine to make use of those beautifiers
and allow the user to choose which one to use.
The default now is to use the same beautifiers used for the strace-like
sys_enter+sys_exit lines, but the user can choose the libtraceevent ones
by either using the:
perf trace --libtraceevent_print
command line option, or by setting:
# cat ~/.perfconfig
[trace]
tracepoint_beautifiers = libtraceevent
For instance, here are some examples:
# perf trace -e sched:*switch,*sleep,sched:*wakeup,exit*,sched:*exit sleep 1
0.000 sched:sched_wakeup(comm: "perf", pid: 5273 (perf), prio: 120, success: 1, target_cpu: 6)
0.621 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffdd06d1140, rmtp: NULL) ...
0.628 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm: "sleep", prev_pid: 5273 (sleep), prev_prio: 120, prev_state: 1, next_comm: "swapper/6", next_pid: 0, next_prio: 120)
1000.879 sched:sched_wakeup(comm: "sleep", pid: 5273 (sleep), prio: 120, success: 1, target_cpu: 6)
0.621 ... [continued]: nanosleep()) = 0
1001.026 exit_group(error_code: 0) = ?
1001.216 sched:sched_process_exit(comm: "sleep", pid: 5273 (sleep), prio: 120)
#
And then using libtraceevent, as before:
# perf trace --libtraceevent_print -e sched:*switch,*sleep,sched:*wakeup,exit*,sched:*exit sleep 1
0.000 sched:sched_wakeup(comm=perf pid=5288 prio=120 target_cpu=001)
0.739 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffeba6c2f40, rmtp: NULL) ...
0.747 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm=sleep prev_pid=5288 prev_prio=120 prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/1 next_pid=0 next_prio=120)
1000.902 sched:sched_wakeup(comm=sleep pid=5288 prio=120 target_cpu=001)
0.739 ... [continued]: nanosleep()) = 0
1001.012 exit_group(error_code: 0) = ?
#
The new default allocates an array of 'struct syscall_arg_fmt' for the
tracepoint arguments and, just like with syscall arguments, tries to
find suitable syscall_arg__scnprintf_NAME() routines to augment those
tracepoint arguments based on their type (as in the tracefs "format"
file), or even in their name + type, for instance arguntents with names
ending in "fd" with type "int" get the fd scnprintf beautifier attached,
etc.
Soon this will take advantage of the kernel BTF information to augment
enumerations based on the tracefs "format" type info.

Specification claims latest version of jitdump file format is 2. Current
jit dump reading code treats 1 as the latest version.
Correct spec to match code.
The original language made it unclear the value to be written in the
magic field.
Revise language that the writer always writes the same value. Specify
that the reader uses the value to detect endian mismatches.

With this change if a perf_date parameter is provided to asciidoc then
it will override the default date written to the man page metadata.
Without this change, or if the perf_date isn't specified, then the
current date is written to the metadata.
Having this parameter allows the metadata to be constant if builds
happen on different dates.
The name of the parameter is intended to be consistent with the existing
perf_version parameter.

Since 'perf top' shares the histogram browser with 'perf report', then
the same explanation in the previous cset applies.
An additional example uses a pair of SDT events available for systemtap:
# perf probe --exec=/usr/bin/stap '%*:*'
Added new events:
sdt_stap:benchmark__thread__start (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
sdt_stap:benchmark (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)
sdt_stap:benchmark__thread__end (on %* in /usr/bin/stap)

Just like 'perf trace' and 'perf script', should be useful for instance
to only consider samples after the initialization phase of some
workload.
The man page has some examples and considerations about its current
interface, that still doesn't handle the on/off events in a special way,
behaving just like when multiple events are specified, i.e.:
- In non-group mode (when the event list is not enclosed in {}) show a
a menu to allow choosing which event the user wants to see in the
histograms browser
- In group mode, be it using {} or asking for --group, show one column
per event.
Try for instance:
# perf top -e '{cycles,instructions,probe:icmp_rcv}' --switch-on=probe:icmp_rcv
Replace probe:icmp_rcv, that I put in place using:
# perf probe icmp_rcv:59
To hit when broadcast packets arrive, with a probe installed after an
initialization phase is over or after some other point of interest, some
garbage collection, etc, and also use --switch-off, for instance, on a
probe installed after said garbage collection is over.

Sometime we want to only consider events after something happens, so
allow discarding events till such events is found, e.g.:
Record all scheduler tracepoints and the sys_enter_nanosleep syscall
event for the 'sleep 1' workload:
# perf record -e sched:*,syscalls:sys_enter_nanosleep sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 31 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.032 MB perf.data (10 samples) ]
#
So we have these events in the generated perf data file:
# perf evlist
sched:sched_kthread_stop
sched:sched_kthread_stop_ret
sched:sched_waking
sched:sched_wakeup
sched:sched_wakeup_new
sched:sched_switch
sched:sched_migrate_task
sched:sched_process_free
sched:sched_process_exit
sched:sched_wait_task
sched:sched_process_wait
sched:sched_process_fork
sched:sched_process_exec
sched:sched_stat_wait
sched:sched_stat_sleep
sched:sched_stat_iowait
sched:sched_stat_blocked
sched:sched_stat_runtime
sched:sched_pi_setprio
sched:sched_move_numa
sched:sched_stick_numa
sched:sched_swap_numa
sched:sched_wake_idle_without_ipi
syscalls:sys_enter_nanosleep
# Tip: use 'perf evlist --trace-fields' to show fields for tracepoint events
#
Then show all of the events that actually took place in this 'perf record' session:

Expose the aux_output attribute flag to the user to configure, by adding a
config term 'aux-output'. For events that support it, selection of
'aux-output' causes the generation of AUX records instead of event records.
This requires that an AUX area event is also provided.

It is sometimes useful to generate a snapshot when perf record exits;
I've been using a wrapper script around the workload that would do a
killall -USR2 perf when the workload exits.
This patch makes it easier and also works when perf record is attached
to a pre-existing task. A new snapshot option 'e' can be specified in
-S to enable this behavior:
root@elsewhere:~# perf record -e intel_pt// -Se sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.085 MB perf.data ]

It is useful to aggregate counts per die. E.g. Uncore becomes die-scope
on Xeon Cascade Lake-AP.
Introduce a new option "--per-die" to support per-die aggregation.
The global id for each core has been changed to socket + die id + core
id. The global id for each die is socket + die id.
Add die information for per-core aggregation. The output of per-core
aggregation will be changed from "S0-C0" to "S0-D0-C0". Any scripts
which rely on the output format of per-core aggregation probably be
broken.
For 'perf stat record/report', there is no die information when
processing the old perf.data. The per-die result will be the same as
per-socket.
Committer notes:
Renamed 'die' variable to 'die_id' to fix the build in some systems:
CC /tmp/build/perf/builtin-script.o
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
builtin-stat.c: In function 'perf_env__get_die':

With the new CPUID.1F, a new level type of CPU topology, 'die', is
introduced. The 'die' information in CPU topology should be added in
perf header.
To be compatible with old perf.data, the patch checks the section size
before reading the die information. The new info is added at the end of
the cpu_topology section, the old perf tool ignores the extra data. It
never reads data crossing the section boundary.
The new perf tool with the patch can be used on legacy kernel. Add a new
function has_die_topology() to check if die topology information is
supported by kernel. The function only check X86 and CPU 0. Assuming
other CPUs have same topology.
Use similar method for core and socket to support die id and sibling
dies string.

One can just record callchains in the kernel or user space with this new
options.
We can use it together with "--all-kernel" options.
This two options is used just like print_stack(sys) or print_ustack(usr)
for systemtap.
Shown below is the usage of this new option combined with "--all-kernel"
options:
1. Configure all used events to run in kernel space and just collect
kernel callchains.
$ perf record -a -g --all-kernel --kernel-callchains
2. Configure all used events to run in kernel space and just collect
user callchains.
$ perf record -a -g --all-kernel --user-callchains
Committer notes:
Improved documentation to state that asking for kernel callchains really
is asking for excluding user callchains, and vice versa.
Further mentioned that using both won't get both, but nothing, as both
will be excluded.
