Prior to Armv8.4, the feature FEAT_TRF is not supported by Arm CPUs.
Consequently, the sysfs node 'ts_source' will not be set as 1 by the
CoreSight ETM driver. On the other hand, the perf tool relies on the
'ts_source' node to determine whether the kernel timestamp is traced.
Since the 'ts_source' is not set for Arm CPUs prior to Armv8.4,
platforms in this case cannot utilize the traced timestamp as the kernel
time.
This patch enables the 'T' itrace option, which forcibly utilizes the
traced timestamp as the kernel time. If users are aware that their
working platform's Arm CoreSight shares the same counter with the kernel
time, they can specify 'T' option to decode the traced timestamp as the
kernel time.
An usage example is:
# perf record -e cs_etm// -- test_program
# perf script --itrace=i10ibT
# perf report --itrace=i10ibT

An AUX trace can contain timestamp, but in some situations, the hardware
trace module (e.g. Arm CoreSight) cannot decide the traced timestamp is
the same source with CPU's time, thus the decoder can not use the
timestamp trace for samples.
This patch introduces 'T' itrace option. If users know the platforms
they are working on have the same time counter with CPUs, users can
use this new option to tell a decoder for using timestamp trace as
kernel time.

The current use of atomics can lead to test failures, as tests (such as
tests/shell/record.sh) search for samples with "test_loop" as the
top-most stack frame, but find frames related to the atomic operation
(e.g. __aarch64_ldadd4_relax).
This change simply removes the "count" variable, as it is not necessary.

tldr; Just FYI, I'm carrying this on the perf tools tree.
Full explanation:
There used to be no copies, with tools/ code using kernel headers
directly. From time to time tools/perf/ broke due to legitimate kernel
hacking. At some point Linus complained about such direct usage. Then we
adopted the current model.
The way these headers are used in perf are not restricted to just
including them to compile something.
There are sometimes used in scripts that convert defines into string
tables, etc, so some change may break one of these scripts, or new MSRs
may use some different #define pattern, etc.
E.g.:
$ ls -1 tools/perf/trace/beauty/*.sh | head -5
tools/perf/trace/beauty/arch_errno_names.sh
tools/perf/trace/beauty/drm_ioctl.sh
tools/perf/trace/beauty/fadvise.sh
tools/perf/trace/beauty/fsconfig.sh
tools/perf/trace/beauty/fsmount.sh

[0] = "NORMAL",
[1] = "RANDOM",
[2] = "SEQUENTIAL",
[3] = "WILLNEED",
[4] = "DONTNEED",
[5] = "NOREUSE",
};
$
The tools/perf/check-headers.sh script, part of the tools/ build
process, points out changes in the original files.
So its important not to touch the copies in tools/ when doing changes in

The die_find_variable_by_reg() will search for a variable or a parameter
sub-DIE in the given scope DIE where the location matches to the given
register.
For the simplest and most common case, memory access usually happens
with a base register and an offset to the field so the register holds a
pointer in a variable or function parameter. Then we can find one if it
has a location expression at the (instruction) address. This function
only handles such a simple case for now.
In this case, the expression has a DW_OP_regN operation where N < 32.
If the register index (N) is greater than or equal to 32, DW_OP_regx
operation with an operand which saves the value for the N would be used.
It rejects expressions with more operations.

doesn't follow the abstract origin of inlined functions as we want
information of the concrete instance. This is needed to check the
location of parameters and local variables properly. Users can check
the origin separately if needed.

The die_get_typename() is to return a C-like type name from DWARF debug
entry and it follows data type if the target entry is a pointer type.
But I found that void pointers don't have the type attribute to follow
and then the function returns an error for that case. This results in a
broken type string for void pointer types.
For example, the following type entries are pointer types.
<1><48c>: Abbrev Number: 4 (DW_TAG_pointer_type)
<48d> DW_AT_byte_size : 8
<48d> DW_AT_type : <0x481>
<1><491>: Abbrev Number: 211 (DW_TAG_pointer_type)
<493> DW_AT_byte_size : 8
<1><494>: Abbrev Number: 4 (DW_TAG_pointer_type)
<495> DW_AT_byte_size : 8
<495> DW_AT_type : <0x49e>
The first one at offset 48c and the third one at offset 494 have type
information. Then they are pointer types for the referenced types. But
the second one at offset 491 doesn't have the type attribute.

The "-l" option is to print line numbers in the objdump output. perf
annotate TUI only can show the line numbers later but it causes big slow
downs for the kernel binary.
Similarly, showing source code also takes a long time and it already has
an option to control it.
$ time objdump ... -d -S -C vmlinux > /dev/null
real 0m3.474s
user 0m3.047s
sys 0m0.428s
$ time objdump ... -d -l -C vmlinux > /dev/null

$ time objdump ... -d -C vmlinux > /dev/null
real 0m0.051s
user 0m0.036s

As it's not needed for data type profiling, let's make it conditional so
that it can skip the unnecessary work.

All of the other Perf subcommands that use objdump have an option to
specify the binary, so add the same option to 'perf test'.
This is useful if you have built the kernel with a different toolchain
to the system one, where the system objdump may fail to disassemble
vmlinux.
Now this can be fixed with something like this:
$ perf test --objdump llvm-objdump "object code reading"

On s390 using linux-next the test case:
87: perf record offcpu profiling tests
fails. The root cause is this command
# ./perf record --off-cpu -e dummy -- ./perf bench sched messaging -l 10
# Running 'sched/messaging' benchmark:
# 20 sender and receiver processes per group
# 10 groups == 400 processes run
Total time: 0.231 [sec]
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.077 MB perf.data (401 samples) ]
#
It does not generate 800+ sample entries, on s390 usually around
40[1-9], sometimes a few more, but never more than 450. The higher the
number of CPUs the lower the number of samples.
Looking at function chain:
bench_sched_messaging()
+--> group()
the senders and receiver threads are created. The senders and receivers
call function ready() which writes one bytes and wait for a reply using
poll system() call.
As context switches are counted, the function ready() will trigger a
context switch when no input data is available after the write system
call. The write system call does not trigger context switches when the
data size is small. And writing 1000 bytes (10 iterations with
100 bytes) is not much and certainly won't block.
The 400+ context switch on s390 occur when the some receiver/sender
threads call ready() and wait for the response from function
bench_sched_messaging() being kicked off.
Lower the number of expected context switches to 400 to succeed on s390.

It tries cycles (or cpu-clock on s390) event with exclude_kernel bit to
open. But other arch on a VM can fail with the hardware event and need
to fallback to the software event in the same way.
So let's get rid of the cpuid check and use generic fallback mechanism
using an array of event candidates. Now event in the odd index excludes
the kernel so use that for the return value.

'struct thread' values hold onto references to mmaps, DSOs, etc. When a
thread exits it is necessary to clean all of this memory up by removing
the thread from the machine's threads. Some tools require this doesn't
happen, such as auxtrace events, 'perf report' if offcpu events exist or
if a task list is being generated, so add a 'struct symbol_conf' member
to make the behavior optional. When an exited thread is left in the
machine's threads, mark it as exited.
This change relates to commit 40826c45eb ("perf thread: Remove
notion of dead threads") . Dead threads were removed as they had a
reference count of 0 and were difficult to reason about with the
reference count checker. Here a thread is removed from threads when it
exits, unless via symbol_conf the exited thread isn't remove and is
marked as exited. Reference counting behaves as it normally does.

Add a new branch filter, "counter", for the branch counter option. It is
used to mark the events which should be logged in the branch. If it is
applied with the -j option, the counters of all the events should be
logged in the branch. If the legacy kernel doesn't support the new
branch sample type, switching off the branch counter filter.
The stored counter values in each branch are displayed right after the
regular branch stack information via perf report -D.
Usage examples:
# perf record -e "{branch-instructions,branch-misses}:S" -j any,counter
Only the first event, branch-instructions, collect the LBR. Both
branch-instructions and branch-misses are marked as logged events. The
occurrences information of them can be found in the branch stack
extension space of each branch.
# perf record -e "{cpu/branch-instructions,branch_type=any/,cpu/branch-misses,branch_type=counter/}"
Only the first event, branch-instructions, collect the LBR. Only the
branch-misses event is marked as a logged event.
Committer notes:
I noticed 'perf test "Sample parsing"' failing, reported to the list and
Kan provided a patch that checks if the evsel has a leader and that
evsel->evlist is set, the comment in the source code further explains
it.

number of supported counters and the width of the counters is exposed in
the sysfs caps folder. The perf tool can use the information to parse
the logged counters in each branch.
Store the information in the perf_env for later usage.

Build
-----
* Compile BPF programs by default if clang (>= 12.0.1) is available to
enable more features like kernel lock contention, off-cpu profiling,
kwork, sample filtering and so on. It can be disabled by passing
BUILD_BPF_SKEL=0 to make.
* Produce better error messages for bison on debug build (make DEBUG=1)
by defining YYDEBUG symbol internally.
perf record
-----------
* Track sideband events (like FORK/MMAP) from all CPUs even if perf record
targets a subset of CPUs only (using -C option). Otherwise it may lose
some information happened on a CPU out of the target list.
* Fix checking raw sched_switch tracepoint argument using system BTF.
This affects off-cpu profiling which attaches a BPF program to the raw
tracepoint.
perf lock contention
--------------------
* Add --lock-cgroup option to see contention by cgroups. This should be
used with BPF only (using -b option).
$ sudo perf lock con -ab --lock-cgroup -- sleep 1
contended total wait max wait avg wait cgroup
835 14.06 ms 41.19 us 16.83 us /system.slice/led.service
25 122.38 us 13.77 us 4.89 us /
44 23.73 us 3.87 us 539 ns /user.slice/user-657345.slice/session-c4.scope
1 491 ns 491 ns 491 ns /system.slice/connectd.service
* Add -G/--cgroup-filter option to see contention only for given cgroups.
This can be useful when you identified a cgroup in the above command and
want to investigate more on it. It also works with other output options
like -t/--threads and -l/--lock-addr.
$ sudo perf lock con -ab -G /user.slice/user-657345.slice/session-c4.scope -- sleep 1
contended total wait max wait avg wait type caller
8 77.11 us 17.98 us 9.64 us spinlock futex_wake+0xc8
2 24.56 us 14.66 us 12.28 us spinlock tick_do_update_jiffies64+0x25
1 4.97 us 4.97 us 4.97 us spinlock futex_q_lock+0x2a
* Use per-cpu array for better spinlock tracking. This is to improve
performance of the BPF program and to avoid nested contention on a lock
in the BPF hash map.
* Update callstack check for PowerPC. To find a representative caller of a
lock, it needs to look up the call stacks. It ends the lookup when it sees
0 in the call stack buffer. However, PowerPC call stacks can have 0 values
in the beginning so skip them when it expects valid call stacks after.
perf kwork
----------
* Support 'sched' class (for -k option) so that it can see task scheduling
event (using sched_switch tracepoint) as well as irq and workqueue items.
* Add perf kwork top subcommand to show more accurate cpu utilization with
sched class above. It works both with a recorded data (using perf kwork
record command) and BPF (using -b option). Unlike perf top command, it
does not support interactive mode (yet).
$ sudo perf kwork top -b -k sched

* Add hard/soft-irq statistics to perf kwork top. This will show the
total CPU utilization with IRQ stats like below:

perf bench
----------
* Add -G/--cgroups option to perf bench sched pipe. The pipe bench is
good to measure context switch overhead. With this option, it puts
the reader and writer tasks in separate cgroups to enforce context
switch between two different cgroups.
Also it needs to set CPU affinity of the tasks in a CPU to accurately
measure the impact of cgroup context switches.
$ sudo perf stat -e context-switches,cgroup-switches -- \
> taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000
# Running 'sched/pipe' benchmark:
# Executed 100000 pipe operations between two processes
Total time: 0.307 [sec]
3.078180 usecs/op
324867 ops/sec
Performance counter stats for 'taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000':
200,026 context-switches
63 cgroup-switches
0.321637922 seconds time elapsed
You can see small number of cgroup-switches because both write and read
tasks are in the same cgroup.
$ sudo mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/{AAA,BBB}
$ sudo perf stat -e context-switches,cgroup-switches -- \
> taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000 -G AAA,BBB
# Running 'sched/pipe' benchmark:
# Executed 100000 pipe operations between two processes
Total time: 0.351 [sec]
3.512990 usecs/op
284657 ops/sec
Performance counter stats for 'taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000 -G AAA,BBB':
200,020 context-switches
200,019 cgroup-switches
0.365034567 seconds time elapsed
Now context-switches and cgroup-switches are almost same. And you can
see the pipe operation took little more.
* Kill child processes when perf bench sched messaging exited abnormally.
Otherwise it'd leave the child doing unnecessary work.
perf test
---------
* Fix various shellcheck issues on the tests written in shell script.
* Skip tests when condition is not satisfied:
- object code reading test for non-text section addresses.
- CoreSight test if cs_etm// event is not available.
- lock contention test if not enough CPUs.
Event parsing
-------------
* Make PMU alias name loading lazy to reduce the startup time in the
event parsing code for perf record, stat and others in the general
case.
* Lazily compute PMU default config. In the same sense, delay PMU
initialization until it's really needed to reduce the startup cost.
* Fix event term values that are raw events. The event specification
can have several terms including event name. But sometimes it clashes
with raw event encoding which starts with 'r' and has hex-digits.
For example, an event named 'read' should be processed as a normal
event but it was mis-treated as a raw encoding and caused a failure.
$ perf stat -e 'uncore_imc_free_running/event=read/' -a sleep 1
event syntax error: '..nning/event=read/'
\___ parser error
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]
-e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
Event metrics
-------------
* Add "Compat" regex to match event with multiple identifiers.
* Usual updates for Intel, Power10, Arm telemetry/CMN and AmpereOne.
Misc
----
* Assorted memory leak fixes and footprint reduction.
* Add "bpf_skeletons" to perf version --build-options so that users can
check whether their perf tools have BPF support easily.
* Fix unaligned access in Intel-PT packet decoder found by undefined-behavior
sanitizer.
* Avoid frequency mode for the dummy event. Surprisingly it'd impact
kernel timer tick handler performance by force iterating all PMU events.
* Update bash shell completion for events and metrics.

As libelf is a requirement for libbpf if it is not available, as in some
container build tests where NO_LIBELF=1 is used, then better warn about
the most basic library first.
Ditto for libz, check its availability before libbpf too.

* Generalized infrastructure for 'writable' ID registers, effectively
allowing userspace to opt-out of certain vCPU features for its guest
* Optimization for vSGI injection, opportunistically compressing MPIDR
to vCPU mapping into a table
* Improvements to KVM's PMU emulation, allowing userspace to select
the number of PMCs available to a VM
* Guest support for memory operation instructions (FEAT_MOPS)
* Cleanups to handling feature flags in KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT, squashing
bugs and getting rid of useless code
* Changes to the way the SMCCC filter is constructed, avoiding wasted
memory allocations when not in use
* Load the stage-2 MMU context at vcpu_load() for VHE systems, reducing
the overhead of errata mitigations
* Miscellaneous kernel and selftest fixes
LoongArch:
* New architecture. The hardware uses the same model as x86, s390
and RISC-V, where guest/host mode is orthogonal to supervisor/user
mode. The virtualization extensions are very similar to MIPS,
therefore the code also has some similarities but it's been cleaned
up to avoid some of the historical bogosities that are found in
arch/mips. The kernel emulates MMU, timer and CSR accesses, while
interrupt controllers are only emulated in userspace, at least for
now.
RISC-V:
* Support for the Smstateen and Zicond extensions
* Support for virtualizing senvcfg
* Support for virtualized SBI debug console (DBCN)
S390:
* Nested page table management can be monitored through tracepoints
and statistics
x86:
* Fix incorrect handling of VMX posted interrupt descriptor in KVM_SET_LAPIC,
which could result in a dropped timer IRQ
* Avoid WARN on systems with Intel IPI virtualization
* Add CONFIG_KVM_MAX_NR_VCPUS, to allow supporting up to 4096 vCPUs without
forcing more common use cases to eat the extra memory overhead.
* Add virtualization support for AMD SRSO mitigation (IBPB_BRTYPE and
SBPB, aka Selective Branch Predictor Barrier).
* Fix a bug where restoring a vCPU snapshot that was taken within 1 second of
creating the original vCPU would cause KVM to try to synchronize the vCPU's
TSC and thus clobber the correct TSC being set by userspace.
* Compute guest wall clock using a single TSC read to avoid generating an
inaccurate time, e.g. if the vCPU is preempted between multiple TSC reads.
* "Virtualize" HWCR.TscFreqSel to make Linux guests happy, which complain
about a "Firmware Bug" if the bit isn't set for select F/M/S combos.
Likewise "virtualize" (ignore) MSR_AMD64_TW_CFG to appease Windows Server
2022.
* Don't apply side effects to Hyper-V's synthetic timer on writes from
userspace to fix an issue where the auto-enable behavior can trigger
spurious interrupts, i.e. do auto-enabling only for guest writes.
* Remove an unnecessary kick of all vCPUs when synchronizing the dirty log
without PML enabled.
* Advertise "support" for non-serializing FS/GS base MSR writes as appropriate.
* Harden the fast page fault path to guard against encountering an invalid
root when walking SPTEs.
* Omit "struct kvm_vcpu_xen" entirely when CONFIG_KVM_XEN=n.
* Use the fast path directly from the timer callback when delivering Xen
timer events, instead of waiting for the next iteration of the run loop.
This was not done so far because previously proposed code had races,
but now care is taken to stop the hrtimer at critical points such as
restarting the timer or saving the timer information for userspace.
* Follow the lead of upstream Xen and ignore the VCPU_SSHOTTMR_future flag.
* Optimize injection of PMU interrupts that are simultaneous with NMIs.
* Usual handful of fixes for typos and other warts.
x86 - MTRR/PAT fixes and optimizations:
* Clean up code that deals with honoring guest MTRRs when the VM has
non-coherent DMA and host MTRRs are ignored, i.e. EPT is enabled.
* Zap EPT entries when non-coherent DMA assignment stops/start to prevent
using stale entries with the wrong memtype.
* Don't ignore guest PAT for CR0.CD=1 && KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED=y.
This was done as a workaround for virtual machine BIOSes that did not
bother to clear CR0.CD (because ancient KVM/QEMU did not bother to
set it, in turn), and there's zero reason to extend the quirk to
also ignore guest PAT.
x86 - SEV fixes:
* Report KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN instead of EINVAL if KVM intercepts SHUTDOWN while
running an SEV-ES guest.
* Clean up the recognition of emulation failures on SEV guests, when KVM would
like to "skip" the instruction but it had already been partially emulated.
This makes it possible to drop a hack that second guessed the (insufficient)
information provided by the emulator, and just do the right thing.

* Various updates and fixes, mostly for x86

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Generalized infrastructure for 'writable' ID registers, effectively
allowing userspace to opt-out of certain vCPU features for its
guest
- Optimization for vSGI injection, opportunistically compressing
MPIDR to vCPU mapping into a table
- Improvements to KVM's PMU emulation, allowing userspace to select
the number of PMCs available to a VM
- Guest support for memory operation instructions (FEAT_MOPS)
- Cleanups to handling feature flags in KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT, squashing
bugs and getting rid of useless code
- Changes to the way the SMCCC filter is constructed, avoiding wasted
memory allocations when not in use
- Load the stage-2 MMU context at vcpu_load() for VHE systems,
reducing the overhead of errata mitigations
- Miscellaneous kernel and selftest fixes
LoongArch:
- New architecture for kvm.
The hardware uses the same model as x86, s390 and RISC-V, where
guest/host mode is orthogonal to supervisor/user mode. The
virtualization extensions are very similar to MIPS, therefore the
code also has some similarities but it's been cleaned up to avoid
some of the historical bogosities that are found in arch/mips. The
kernel emulates MMU, timer and CSR accesses, while interrupt
controllers are only emulated in userspace, at least for now.
RISC-V:
- Support for the Smstateen and Zicond extensions
- Support for virtualizing senvcfg
- Support for virtualized SBI debug console (DBCN)
S390:
- Nested page table management can be monitored through tracepoints
and statistics
x86:
- Fix incorrect handling of VMX posted interrupt descriptor in
KVM_SET_LAPIC, which could result in a dropped timer IRQ
- Avoid WARN on systems with Intel IPI virtualization
- Add CONFIG_KVM_MAX_NR_VCPUS, to allow supporting up to 4096 vCPUs
without forcing more common use cases to eat the extra memory
overhead.
- Add virtualization support for AMD SRSO mitigation (IBPB_BRTYPE and
SBPB, aka Selective Branch Predictor Barrier).
- Fix a bug where restoring a vCPU snapshot that was taken within 1
second of creating the original vCPU would cause KVM to try to
synchronize the vCPU's TSC and thus clobber the correct TSC being
set by userspace.
- Compute guest wall clock using a single TSC read to avoid
generating an inaccurate time, e.g. if the vCPU is preempted
between multiple TSC reads.
- "Virtualize" HWCR.TscFreqSel to make Linux guests happy, which
complain about a "Firmware Bug" if the bit isn't set for select
F/M/S combos. Likewise "virtualize" (ignore) MSR_AMD64_TW_CFG to
appease Windows Server 2022.
- Don't apply side effects to Hyper-V's synthetic timer on writes
from userspace to fix an issue where the auto-enable behavior can
trigger spurious interrupts, i.e. do auto-enabling only for guest
writes.
- Remove an unnecessary kick of all vCPUs when synchronizing the
dirty log without PML enabled.
- Advertise "support" for non-serializing FS/GS base MSR writes as
appropriate.
- Harden the fast page fault path to guard against encountering an
invalid root when walking SPTEs.
- Omit "struct kvm_vcpu_xen" entirely when CONFIG_KVM_XEN=n.
- Use the fast path directly from the timer callback when delivering
Xen timer events, instead of waiting for the next iteration of the
run loop. This was not done so far because previously proposed code
had races, but now care is taken to stop the hrtimer at critical
points such as restarting the timer or saving the timer information
for userspace.
- Follow the lead of upstream Xen and ignore the VCPU_SSHOTTMR_future
flag.
- Optimize injection of PMU interrupts that are simultaneous with
NMIs.
- Usual handful of fixes for typos and other warts.
x86 - MTRR/PAT fixes and optimizations:
- Clean up code that deals with honoring guest MTRRs when the VM has
non-coherent DMA and host MTRRs are ignored, i.e. EPT is enabled.
- Zap EPT entries when non-coherent DMA assignment stops/start to
prevent using stale entries with the wrong memtype.
- Don't ignore guest PAT for CR0.CD=1 && KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED=y
This was done as a workaround for virtual machine BIOSes that did
not bother to clear CR0.CD (because ancient KVM/QEMU did not bother
to set it, in turn), and there's zero reason to extend the quirk to
also ignore guest PAT.

- Report KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN instead of EINVAL if KVM intercepts
SHUTDOWN while running an SEV-ES guest.

KVM would like to "skip" the instruction but it had already been

The architecture specific system call tables are updated for
the added map_shadow_stack() syscall and to remove references
to the long-gone sys_lookup_dcookie() syscall.
