perf: Skip and warn on unknown format 'configN' attrs

2022-10-30T08:41:18Z

[ Upstream commit e552b7be12ed62357df84392efa525ecb01910fb ] If the kernel exposes a new perf_event_attr field in a format attr, perf will return an error stating the specified PMU can't be found. For example, a format attr with 'config3:0-63' causes an error as config3 is unknown to perf. This causes a compatibility issue between a newer kernel with older perf tool. Before this change with a kernel adding 'config3' I get: $ perf record -e arm_spe// -- true event syntax error: 'arm_spe//' \___ Cannot find PMU `arm_spe'. Missing kernel support? Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Usage: perf record [] [] or: perf record [] -- [] -e, --event event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events After this change, I get: $ perf record -e arm_spe// -- true WARNING: 'arm_spe_0' format 'inv_event_filter' requires 'perf_event_attr::config3' which is not supported by this version of perf! [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.091 MB perf.data ] To support unknown configN formats, rework the YACC implementation to pass any config[0-9]+ format to perf_pmu__new_format() to handle with a warning.

perf pmu: Validate raw event with sysfs exported format bits

2022-10-30T08:41:18Z

[ Upstream commit e40647762fb5881360874e08e03e972d58d63c42 ] A raw PMU event (eventsel+umask) in the form of rNNN is supported by perf but lacks of checking for the validity of raw encoding. For example, bit 16 and bit 17 are not valid on KBL but perf doesn't report warning when encoding with these bits. Before: # ./perf stat -e cpu/r031234/ -a -- sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 0 cpu/r031234/ 1.003798924 seconds time elapsed It may silently measure the wrong event! The kernel supported bits have been exported through /sys/devices//format/. Perf collects the information to 'struct perf_pmu_format' and links it to 'pmu->format' list. The 'struct perf_pmu_format' has a bitmap which records the valid bits for this format. For example, root@kbl-ppc:/sys/devices/cpu/format# cat umask config:8-15 The valid bits (bit8-bit15) are recorded in bitmap of format 'umask'. We collect total valid bits of all formats, save to a local variable 'masks' and reverse it. Now '~masks' represents total invalid bits. bits = config & ~masks; The set bits in 'bits' indicate the invalid bits used in config. Finally we use bitmap_scnprintf to report the invalid bits. Some architectures may not export supported bits through sysfs, so if masks is 0, perf_pmu__warn_invalid_config directly returns. After: Single event without name: # ./perf stat -e cpu/r031234/ -a -- sleep 1 WARNING: event 'N/A' not valid (bits 16-17 of config '31234' not supported by kernel)! Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 0 cpu/r031234/ 1.001597373 seconds time elapsed Multiple events with names: # ./perf stat -e cpu/rf01234,name=aaa/,cpu/r031234,name=bbb/ -a -- sleep 1 WARNING: event 'aaa' not valid (bits 20,22 of config 'f01234' not supported by kernel)! WARNING: event 'bbb' not valid (bits 16-17 of config '31234' not supported by kernel)! Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 0 aaa 0 bbb 1.001573787 seconds time elapsed Warnings are reported for invalid bits.

perf tools: Fix misleading add event PMU debug message

2022-04-20T07:23:17Z

[ Upstream commit f034fc50d3c7d9385c20d505ab4cf56b8fd18ac7 ] Fix incorrect debug message: Attempting to add event pmu 'intel_pt' with '' that may result in non-fatal errors which always appears with perf record -vv and intel_pt e.g. perf record -vv -e intel_pt//u uname The message is incorrect because there will never be non-fatal errors. Suppress the message if the PMU is 'selectable' i.e. meant to be selected directly as an event.

perf tools: Add support for exclusive groups/events

2020-10-14T15:24:28Z

Peter suggested that using the exclusive mode in perf could avoid some problems with bad scheduling of groups. Exclusive is implemented in the kernel, but wasn't exposed by the perf tool, so hard to use without custom low level API users. Add support for marking groups or events with :e for exclusive in the perf tool. The implementation is basically the same as the existing pinned attribute.

perf parse-events: Reduce casts around bp_addr

2020-09-28T12:22:39Z

perf_event_attr bp_addr is a u64. parse-events.y parses it as a u64, but casts it to a void* and then parse-events.c casts it back to a u64. Rather than all the casts, change the type of the address to be a u64.

perf parse-event: Fix cpu map refcounting

2020-09-17T16:25:35Z

Like evlist cpu map, evsel's cpu map should have a proper refcount. As it's created with a refcount, we don't need to get an extra count. Thanks to Arnaldo for the simpler suggestion.

perf parse-event: Fix memory leak in evsel->unit
