perf stat: Introduce config stat.bpf-counter-events

2021-04-29T13:30:58Z

Currently, to use BPF to aggregate perf event counters, the user uses --bpf-counters option. Enable "use bpf by default" events with a config option, stat.bpf-counter-events. Events with name in the option will use BPF. This also enables mixed BPF event and regular event in the same sesssion. For example: perf config stat.bpf-counter-events=instructions perf stat -e instructions,cs The second command will use BPF for "instructions" but not "cs".

perf stat: Align CSV output for summary mode

2021-03-24T13:21:49Z

The 'perf stat' subcommand supports the request for a summary of the interval counter readings. But the summary lines break the CSV output so it's hard for scripts to parse the result.

We'll use it to ask for extra config files to be loaded, profile like stuff that will be used first to make 'perf trace' mimic 'strace' output via a 'perf strace' command that just sets up 'perf trace' output. At some point it'll be used for regression tests, where we'll run some simple commands like: perf strace ls > perf-strace.output strace ls > strace.output And then do some mutable syscall arg aware diff like tool to deal with arguments for things like mmap, that change at each execution, to be first ignored and then properly tracked when used accoss multiple syscalls.
