This patch makes perf compile on non x86 platforms by defining a weak
symbol for sample_reg_masks[] in util/perf_regs.c.
The patch also moves the REG() and REG_END() macros into the
util/per_regs.h header file. The macros are renamed to
SMPL_REG/SMPL_REG_END to avoid clashes with other header files.

There is a problem in the dwarf-regs.c files for sh, sparc and x86 where
it is possible to make an out-of-bounds array access when searching for
register names.
This patch fixes it by replacing '<=' to '<', so when register (number
== XXX_MAX_REGS), get_arch_regstr() will return NULL.

This patch modifies the -I/--int-regs option to enablepassing the name
of the registers to sample on interrupt. Registers can be specified by
their symbolic names. For instance on x86, --intr-regs=ax,si.
The motivation is to reduce the size of the perf.data file and the
overhead of sampling by only collecting the registers useful to a
specific analysis. For instance, for value profiling, sampling only the
registers used to passed arguements to functions.
With no parameter, the --intr-regs still records all possible registers
based on the architecture.
To name registers, it is necessary to use the long form of the option,
i.e., --intr-regs:
$ perf record --intr-regs=si,di,r8,r9 .....
To record any possible registers:
$ perf record -I .....
$ perf report --intr-regs ...
To display the register, one can use perf report -D
To list the available registers:
$ perf record --intr-regs=\?
available registers: AX BX CX DX SI DI BP SP IP FLAGS CS SS R8 R9 R10 R11 R12 R13 R14 R15

Before this patch there's no way to connect a loaded bpf object
to its source file. However, during applying perf's '--filter' to BPF
object, without this connection makes things harder, because perf loads
all programs together, but '--filter' setting is for each object.
The API of bpf_object__open_buffer() is changed to allow passing a name.
Fortunately, at this time there's only one user of it (perf test LLVM),
so we change it together.

This patch creates a new script (compaction-times) to report time
spent in mm compaction. It is possible to report times in nanoseconds
(default) or microseconds (-u).
The option -p will break down results by process id, -pv will further
decompose by each compaction entry/exit.
For each compaction entry/exit what is reported is controlled by the
options:
-t report only timing
-m report migration stats
-ms report migration scanner stats
-fs report free scanner stats
The default is to report all.
Entries may be further filtered by pid, pid-range or comm (regex).
The script is useful when analysing workloads that compact memory. The
most common example will be THP allocations on systems with a lot of
uptime that has fragmented memory.
This is an example of using the script to analyse a thpscale from
mmtests which deliberately fragments memory and allocates THP in 4
separate threads

print_aggr() fails to print per-core/per-socket statistics after commit
582ec0829b ("perf stat: Fix per-socket output bug for uncore events")
if events have differnt cpus. Because in print_aggr(), aggr_get_id needs
index (not cpu id) to find core/pkg id. Also, evsel cpu maps should be
used to get aggregated id.
Here is an example:

cpumask 0,18)
$ perf stat -e cycles,uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/ -C0,18 --per-core sleep 2

It should be useful to allow 'perf probe' probe at absolute offset of a
target. For example, when (u)probing at a instruction of a shared object
in a embedded system where debuginfo is not avaliable but we know the
offset of that instruction by manually digging.
This patch enables following perf probe command syntax:
# perf probe 0xffffffff811e6615
And
# perf probe /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so 0xeb860
In the above example, we don't need a anchor symbol, so it is possible
to compute absolute addresses using other methods and then use 'perf
probe' to create the probing points.
v1 -> v2:
Drop the leading '+' in cmdline;
Allow uprobing at offset 0x0;
Improve 'perf probe -l' result when uprobe at area without debuginfo.
v2 -> v3:
Split bugfix to a separated patch.

This patch fixes a bug that, when offset is provided but function is
lost, parse_perf_probe_point() will give a "" string as function name,
so the checking code at the end of parse_perf_probe_point() become
useless. For example:
# perf probe +0x1234
Failed to find symbol in kernel
Error: Failed to add events.
After this patch:
# perf probe +0x1234
Semantic error :Offset requires an entry function.
Error: Command Parse Error.

When manually added uprobe point with zero address, 'perf probe -l'
reports error. For example:
# echo p:probe_libc/abs_0 /path/to/lib.bin:0x0 arg1=%ax > \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
# perf probe -l
Error: Failed to show event list.
Probing at 0x0 is possible and useful when lib.bin is not a normal
shared object but is manually mapped. However, in this case kernel
report:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
p:probe_libc/abs_0 /path/to/lib.bin:0x (null) arg1=%ax
This patch supports the above kernel output.

'perf probe -l' reports error if it is unable find symbol through
address. Here is an example.
# echo 'p:probe_libc/abs_5 /lib64/libc.so.6:0x5' >
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
p:probe_libc/abs_5 /lib64/libc.so.6:0x0000000000000005
# perf probe -l
Error: Failed to show event list
Also, this situation triggers a logical inconsistency in
convert_to_perf_probe_point() that, it returns ENOMEM but actually it
never try strdup().
This patch removes !tp->module && !is_kprobe condition, so it always
uses address to build function name if symbol not found.
Test result:
# perf probe -l
probe_libc:abs_5 (on 0x5 in /lib64/libc.so.6)

CYC packets are a new Intel PT feature.
CYC packets provide even finer grain timestamp information than MTC and
TSC packets. A CYC packet contains the number of CPU cycles since the
last CYC packet. Unlike MTC and TSC packets, CYC packets are only sent
when another packet is also sent.
Support for this feature is indicated by:
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/psb_cyc
which contains "1" if the feature is supported and "0" otherwise.
CYC packets can be requested using a PMU config term e.g. perf record -e
intel_pt/cyc/u sleep 1
The frequency of CYC packets can also be specified. e.g. perf record -e
intel_pt/cyc,cyc_thresh=2/u sleep 1
CYC packets are not requested by default.
Valid cyc_thresh values are given by:
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/cycle_thresholds
which contains a hexadecimal value, the bits of which represent valid
values e.g. bit 2 set means value 2 is valid.
The value represents the minimum number of CPU cycles that must have
passed before a CYC packet can be sent. The number of CPU cycles is:
2 ^ (value - 1)
e.g. value 4 means 8 CPU cycles must pass before a CYC packet can be
sent. Note a CYC packet is still only sent when another packet is sent,
not at, e.g. every 8 CPU cycles.
If an invalid value is entered, the error message will give a list of
valid values e.g.
$ perf record -e intel_pt/cyc,cyc_thresh=15/u uname
Invalid cyc_thresh for intel_pt. Valid values are: 0-12
tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt is updated in a later patch as
there are a number of new features being added.

CYC packets provide even finer grain timestamp information than MTC and
TSC packets. A CYC packet contains the number of CPU cycles since the
last CYC packet.
This patch just adds decoder support. The CPU frequency can be related
to TSC using the Maximum Non-Turbo Ratio in combination with the CBR
(core-to-bus ratio) packet. However more accuracy is achieved by simply
interpolating the number of cycles between other timing packets like MTC
or TSC. This patch takes the latter approach.
Support for a default value and validation of values is provided by a
later patch. Also documentation is updated in a separate patch.

The value is converted to the MTC frequency as:
CTC-frequency / (2 ^ value)
e.g. value 3 means one eighth of CTC-frequency
Where CTC is the hardware crystal clock, the frequency of which can be
related to TSC via values provided in cpuid leaf 0x15.
If an invalid value is entered, the error message will give a list of

New features have been added to Intel PT which include a number of new
packet definitions.
This patch adds packet definitions for new packets: TMA, MTC, CYC, VMCS,
TRACESTOP and MNT. Also another bit in PIP is defined.
This patch only adds support for the definitions. Later patches add
support for decoding TMA, MTC, CYC and TRACESTOP which is where those
packets are explained.
VMCS and the newly defined bit in PIP are used with virtualization which
is not supported yet. MNT is a maintenance packet which the decoder
should ignore.

An error occurred in debuginfo analysis (-2).
Error: Failed to add events. Reason: No such file or directory (Code: -2)
The reason is caused by libdw that, if libdw is statically linked, it
can't load libebl_{arch}.so reliable.
In this case it is still possible to get the address from
/proc/kalksyms. However, perf tries that only when libdw returns
-EBADF.
This patch gives it another chance to utilize symbol table, even if
libdw returns an error code other than -EBADF.

perf script, report and inject all have the same itrace options. Put
them into an asciidoc include file.

Events that don't sample the timestamp have a timestamp value of -1.
Intel PT processing wasn't taking that into account.
This is particularly noticeable with Intel BTS because timestamps are
not requested by default.
Then, if the conversion of -1 to TSC results in a small number, the
processing is unaffected.
However if the conversion results in a big number, then the data is
processed prematurely before relevant sideband data like mmap events,
which in turn results in samples with unknown dsos.
Commiter note:
Since BTS wasn't upstream, I split the patch to fold the BTS part with
the patch introducing it, to avoid having this bug in the commit
history. PT was already upstream, so this patch contains that part.

The "/proc/kcore requires CAP_SYS_RAWIO" message comes up all the time
for 'perf script' if vmlinux is not found and the user isn't root, even
when the kernel is not being traced and even though the message is only
really relevant for annotation.
Change it to pr_debug and instead put a note in the message displayed if
annotation is not possible.
Also, the file being accessed might not be /proc/kcore. Tools can be
directed to a different location using the --kallsyms option in which
case kcore is expected to be in the same directory. Adjust the message
so it is not misleading in that case.

Patch "perf script: Don't assume evsel position of tracking events"
changed 'perf script' to use 'perf_evlist__id2evsel()'. That results
in a segfault if there is more than 1 event and there are
synthesized mmap events e.g.
$ perf record -e cycles,instructions -p$$ sleep 1
$ perf script --show-mmap-events
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
That happens because these synthesized events have an 'id' of zero
which does not match any 'evsel'.
Currently, these synthesized events use the sample type of the first
evsel.
Change 'perf_evlist__id2evsel()' to reflect that which also makes
it consistent with 'perf_evlist__event2evsel()'.
