Michael reported that he could not stat following event:
$ perf stat -e unc_p_freq_ge_1200mhz_cycles -a -- ls
event syntax error: '..e_1200mhz_cycles'
\___ value too big for format, maximum is 255
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
The event is unwrapped into:
uncore_pcu/event=0xb,filter_band0=1200/
where filter_band0 format says it's one byte only:
# cat uncore_pcu/format/filter_band0
config1:0-7
while JSON files specifies bigger number:
"Filter": "filter_band0=1200",
all the filter_band* formats show 1 byte width:
# cat uncore_pcu/format/filter_band1
config1:8-15
# cat uncore_pcu/format/filter_band2
config1:16-23
# cat uncore_pcu/format/filter_band3
config1:24-31
The reason of the issue is that filter_band* values are supposed to be
in 100Mhz units.. it's stated in the JSON help for the events, like:
filter_band3=XXX, with XXX in 100Mhz units
This patch divides the filter_band* values by 100, plus there's couple
of changes that actually change the number completely, like:
- "Filter": "edge=1,filter_band2=4000",
+ "Filter": "edge=1,filter_band2=30",

Make the type field in pmu-events/arch/s390/mapfile.cvs more generic to
match the created cpuid string for s390.
The pattern also checks for the counter first version number and counter
second version number ([13]\.[1-5]) and the authorization field which
follows.
These numbers do not exist in the cpuid identification string when perf
commands are executed on a z/VM environment (which does not support CPU
counter measurement facility).
CPUID string for LPAR:
cpuid : IBM,3906,704,M03,3.5,002f
CPUID string for z/VM:
cpuid : IBM,2964,702,N96
This allows the removal of s390 specific cpuid compare code and uses the
common compare function with its regular expression matching algorithm.

For some architectures (like arm), there are architecture- defined
events. Sometimes these events may be "recommended" according to the
architecture standard, in that the implementer is free ignore the
"recommendation" and create its custom event.
This patch adds support for parsing standard events from arch-defined
JSONs, and fixing up vendor events when they have implemented these
events as standard.
Support is also ensured that the vendor may implement their own custom
events.
A new step is added to the pmu events parsing to fix up the vendor
events with the arch-standard events.
The arch-defined JSONs must be placed in the arch root folder for
preprocessing prior to tree JSON processing.
In the vendor JSON, to specify that the arch event is supported, the
keyword "ArchStdEvent" should be used, like this:
[
{
"ArchStdEvent": "L1D_CACHE_WR",
},
]
Matching is based on the "EventName" field in the architecture JSON.
No other JSON objects are strictly required. However, for other objects
added, these take precedence over architecture defined standard events,
thus supporting separate events which have the same event code.

For some architectures (like arm), it is required to support a vendor
subdirectory and not locate all the JSONs for a specific vendor in the
same folder.
This is because all the events for the same vendor will be placed in the
same pmu events table, which may cause conflict. This conflict would be
in the instance that a vendor's custom implemented events do have the
same meaning on different platforms, so events in the pmu table would
conflict. In addition, per list command may show events which are not
even supported for a given platform.
This patch adds support for a arch/vendor/platform directory hierarchy,
while maintaining backwards-compatibility for existing arch/platform
structure. In this, each platform would always have its own pmu events
table.
In generated file pmu_events.c, each platform table name is in the
format pme{_vendor}_platform, like this:
struct pmu_events_map pmu_events_map[] = {
{
.cpuid = "0x00000000420f5160",
.version = "v1",
.type = "core",
.table = pme_cavium_thunderx2
},
{
.cpuid = 0,
.version = 0,
.type = 0,
.table = 0,
},
};

Currently a topic subdirectory is supported in the pmu-events dir, in
the following sample structure: /arch/platform/subtopic/mysubtopic.json
Upto 256 levels of topic subdirectories are supported. So this means
that JSONs may be located in a topic dir as well as the platform dir.
This topic subdirectory causes problems if we want to add support for a
vendor dir in the pmu-events structure (in the form
arch/platform/vendor), in that we cannot differentiate between a vendor
dir and a topic dir.
Since the topic dir feature is not used, drop it so it does not block
adding vendor subdirectory support.

When EXPECT macro fails an assertion, the error code is not properly set
after the first loop of tokens in function json_events().
This is because err is set to the return value from func function
pointer call, which must be 0 to continue to loop, yet it is not reset
for for each loop. I assume that this was not the intention, so change
the code so err is set appropriately in EXPECT macro itself.
In addition to this, the indention in EXPECT macro is tidied. The
current indention alludes that the 2 statements following the if
statement are in the body, which is not true.

The powerpc cpuid information includes chip revision information.
Changes between chip revisions are usually minor bug fixes and usually
do not affect the operation of the performance monitoring hardware.
The original mapfile.csv matching requires enumerating every possible
cpuid string. When a new minor chip revision is produced a new entry
has to be added to the mapfile.csv and the code recompiled to allow perf
to have the implementation specific perf events for this new minor
revision. For users of various distibutions of Linux having to wait for
a new release of the kernel's perf tool to be built with these trivial
patches is inconvenient.
Using regular expressions rather than exactly string matching of the
entire cpuid string allows developers to write mapfile.csv files that do
not require patches and recompiles for each of these minor version
changes. If special cases need to be made for some particular versions,
they can be placed earlier in the mapfile.csv file before the more
general matches.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.
