[ Upstream commit c091ee90897aacf60aee510464cfc28b4041186f ]

The PMU name could be NULL in the case of the fake_pmu. Initialize the
name for the fake_pmu to "fake" so that all other logic can assume it
is initialized. Add a const to the type of name so that a literal can
be used to avoid additional initialization code. Propagate the cost
through related routines and remove now unnecessary "(char *)"
casts. Doing this located a bug in builtin-list for the pmu_glob that
was missing a strdup.

<id>urn:sha1:9350a917913321c69edbfdfd204e0d2855cddd06</id>
<content type='text'>
To pick the changes in these csets:

  cf264e1329fb0307 ("cachestat: implement cachestat syscall")

That add support for this new syscall in tools such as 'perf trace'.

For instance, this is now possible:

  # perf trace -e cachestat
  ^C[root@five ~]#
  # perf trace -v -e cachestat
  Using CPUID AuthenticAMD-25-21-0
  event qualifier tracepoint filter: (common_pid != 3163687 &amp;&amp; common_pid != 3147) &amp;&amp; (id == 451)
  mmap size 528384B
  ^C[root@five ~]

  # perf trace -v -e *stat* --max-events=10
  Using CPUID AuthenticAMD-25-21-0
  event qualifier tracepoint filter: (common_pid != 3163713 &amp;&amp; common_pid != 3147) &amp;&amp; (id == 4 || id == 5 || id == 6 || id == 136 || id == 137 || id == 138 || id == 262 || id == 332 || id == 451)

  #

That is the filter expression attached to the raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit}
tracepoints.

  $ find tools/perf/arch/ -name "syscall*tbl" | xargs grep -w sys_cachestat

  $

  $ grep -w cachestat /tmp/build/perf-tools/arch/x86/include/generated/asm/syscalls_64.c
  	[451] = "cachestat",
  $

This addresses these perf build warnings:

 "These are remaining changes and fixes for this cycle.

  Build:

   - Allow generating vmlinux.h from BTF using `make GEN_VMLINUX_H=1`
     and skip if the vmlinux has no BTF.

   - Replace deprecated clang -target xxx option by --target=xxx.

  perf record:

   - Print event attributes with well known type and config symbols in
     the debug output like below:

   - Update AMD IBS event error message since it now support per-process
     profiling but no priviledge filters.

       $ sudo perf record -e ibs_op//k -C 0
       Error:
       AMD IBS doesn't support privilege filtering. Try again without
       the privilege modifiers (like 'k') at the end.

  perf lock contention:

   - Support CSV style output using -x option

       $ sudo perf lock con -ab -x, sleep 1
       # output: contended, total wait, max wait, avg wait, type, caller

       1, 24619, 24619, 24619, spinlock, rcu_core+0xd4

   - Add --output option to save the data to a file not to be interfered
     by other debug messages.

  Test:

   - Fix event parsing test on ARM where there's no raw PMU nor supports
     PERF_PMU_CAP_EXTENDED_HW_TYPE.

   - Update the lock contention test case for CSV output.

   - Fix a segfault in the daemon command test.

  Vendor events (JSON):

   - Add has_event() to check if the given event is available on system
     at runtime. On Intel machines, some transaction events may not be
     present when TSC extensions are disabled.

   - Update Intel event metrics.

  Misc:

   - Sort symbols by name using an external array of pointers instead of
     a rbtree node in the symbol. This will save 16-bytes or 24-bytes
     per symbol whether the sorting is actually requested or not.

   - Fix unwinding DWARF callstacks using libdw when --symfs option is
     used"

AMD IBS can do per-process profiling[1] and is no longer restricted to
per-cpu or systemwide only. Remove stale error message. Also, checking
just exclude_kernel is not sufficient since IBS does not support any
privilege filters. So include all exclude_* checks. And finally, move
these checks under tools/perf/arch/x86/ from generic code.

Before:
  $ sudo ./perf record -e ibs_op//k -C 0
  Error:
  AMD IBS may only be available in system-wide/per-cpu mode.  Try
  using -a, or -C and workload affinity

After:
  $ sudo ./perf record -e ibs_op//k -C 0
  Error:
  AMD IBS doesn't support privilege filtering. Try again without
  the privilege modifiers (like 'k') at the end.

Pull perf tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
 "Internal cleanup:

   - Refactor PMU data management to handle hybrid systems in a generic
     way.

     Do more work in the lexer so that legacy event types parse more
     easily. A side-effect of this is that if a PMU is specified,
     scanning sysfs is avoided improving start-up time.

   - Fix hybrid metrics, for example, the TopdownL1 works for both
     performance and efficiency cores on Intel machines. To support
     this, sort and regroup events after parsing.

   - Add reference count checking for the 'thread' data structure.

   - Lots of fixes for memory leaks in various places thanks to the ASAN
     and Ian's refcount checker.

   - Reduce the binary size by replacing static variables with local or
     dynamically allocated memory.

   - Introduce shared_mutex for annotate data to reduce memory
     footprint.

   - Make filesystem access library functions more thread safe.

  Test:

   - Organize cpu_map tests into a single suite.

   - Add metric value validation test to check if the values are within
     correct value ranges.

   - Add perf stat stdio output test to check if event and metric names
     match.

   - Add perf data converter JSON output test.

   - Fix a lot of issues reported by shellcheck(1). This is a
     preparation to enable shellcheck by default.

   - Make the large x86 new instructions test optional at build time
     using EXTRA_TESTS=1.

   - Add a test for libpfm4 events.

  perf script:

   - Add 'dsoff' outpuf field to display offset from the DSO.

      $ perf script -F comm,pid,event,ip,dsoff
         ls 2695501 cycles:      152cc73ef4b5 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.31.so+0x1c4b5)
         ls 2695501 cycles:  ffffffff99045b3e ([kernel.kallsyms])

         ls 2695501 cycles:  ffffffffc1f54afb ([kernel.kallsyms])
         ls 2695501 cycles:  ffffffff9968382f ([kernel.kallsyms])
         ls 2695501 cycles:  ffffffff99e00094 ([kernel.kallsyms])
         ls 2695501 cycles:      152cc718a8d0 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libselinux.so.1+0x68d0)
         ls 2695501 cycles:  ffffffff992a6db0 ([kernel.kallsyms])

   - Adjust width for large PID/TID values.

  perf report:

   - Robustify reading addr2line output for srcline by checking sentinel
     output before the actual data and by using timeout of 1 second.

   - Allow config terms (like 'name=ABC') with breakpoint events.

      $ perf record -e mem:0x55feb98dd169:x/name=breakpoint/ -p 19646 -- sleep 1

  perf annotate:

   - Handle x86 instruction suffix like 'l' in 'movl' generally.

   - Parse instruction operands properly even with a whitespace. This is
     needed for llvm-objdump output.

   - Support RISC-V binutils lookup using the triplet prefixes.

   - Add '&lt;' and '&gt;' key to navigate to prev/next symbols in TUI.

   - Allow --cputype option to have any PMU name (not just hybrid).

   - Fix output value not to added when it runs multiple times with -r
     option.

  perf list:

   - Show metricgroup description from JSON file called
     metricgroups.json.

   - Allow 'pfm' argument to list only libpfm4 events and check each
     event is supported before showing it.

  JSON vendor events:

   - Avoid event grouping using "NO_GROUP_EVENTS" constraints. The
     topdown events are correctly grouped even if no group exists.

   - Add "Default" metric group to print it in the default output. And
     use "DefaultMetricgroupName" to indicate the real metric group
     name.

   - Add AmpereOne core PMU events.

  Misc:

   - Define man page date correctly.

   - Track exception level properly on ARM CoreSight ETM.

   - Allow anonymous struct, union or enum when retrieving type names
     from DWARF.

   - Fix incorrect filename when calling `perf inject --jit`.

   - Handle PLT size correctly on LoongArch"

perf mem/c2c on AMD internally uses IBS OP PMU, not the core PMU. Also,
AMD platforms does not have heterogeneous PMUs.

There are multiple places where x86 specific code determines AMD vs
Intel arch and acts based on that. Consolidate those checks into a
single function.

<title>perf tests: Make x86 new instructions test optional at build time</title>
<updated>2023-06-14T02:40:32Z</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=d436373a75f53cafa37df0ace3b329b119739699'/>
<id>urn:sha1:d436373a75f53cafa37df0ace3b329b119739699</id>
<content type='text'>
The "x86 instruction decoder - new instructions" test takes up space but
is only really useful to developers. Make it optional at build time.

Add variable EXTRA_TESTS which must be defined in order to build perf
with the test.

Example:

  Before:

    $ make -C tools/perf clean &gt;/dev/null
    $ make -C tools/perf &gt;/dev/null
    Makefile.config:650: No libunwind found. Please install libunwind-dev[el] &gt;= 1.1 and/or set LIBUNWIND_DIR
    Makefile.config:1149: libpfm4 not found, disables libpfm4 support. Please install libpfm4-dev
      PERF_VERSION = 6.4.rc3.gd15b8c76c964
    $ readelf -SW tools/perf/perf | grep '\.rela.dyn\|.rodata\|\.data.rel.ro'
      [10] .rela.dyn         RELA            000000000002fcb0 02fcb0 0748b0 18   A  6   0  8

  After:

    $ make -C tools/perf clean &gt;/dev/null
    $ make -C tools/perf &gt;/dev/null
    Makefile.config:650: No libunwind found. Please install libunwind-dev[el] &gt;= 1.1 and/or set LIBUNWIND_DIR
    Makefile.config:1154: libpfm4 not found, disables libpfm4 support. Please install libpfm4-dev
      PERF_VERSION = 6.4.rc3.g4ea9c1569ea4
    $ readelf -SW tools/perf/perf | grep '\.rela.dyn\|.rodata\|\.data.rel.ro'
      [10] .rela.dyn         RELA            000000000002f3c8 02f3c8 036d68 18   A  6   0  8

Committer notes:

Build with 'make EXTRA_TESTS=1 -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf" and
reproduced the ELF section size differences.

<title>perf thread: Add accessor functions for thread</title>

<content type='text'>
Using accessors will make it easier to add reference count checking in
later patches.

Committer notes:

thread-&gt;nsinfo wasn't wrapped as it is used together with
nsinfo__zput(), where does a trick to set the field with a refcount
being dropped to NULL, and that doesn't work well with using
thread__nsinfo(thread), that loses the &amp;thread-&gt;nsinfo pointer.

When refcount checking is added to 'struct thread', later in this
series, nsinfo__zput(RC_CHK_ACCESS(thread)-&gt;nsinfo) will be used to
check the thread pointer.
