perf tools maintainership:
- Add git information for perf-tools and perf-tools-next trees/branches to the
MAINTAINERS file. That is where development now takes place and myself and
Namhyung Kim have write access, more people to come as we emulate other
maintainer groups.
perf record:
- Record kernel data maps when 'perf record --data' is used, so that global variables can
be resolved and used in tools that do data profiling.
perf trace:
- Remove the old, experimental support for BPF events in which a .c file was passed as
an event: "perf trace -e hello.c" to then get compiled and loaded.
The only known usage for that, that shipped with the kernel as an example for such events,
augmented the raw_syscalls tracepoints and was converted to a libbpf skeleton, reusing all
the user space components and the BPF code connected to the syscalls.
In the end just the way to glue the BPF part and the user space type beautifiers changed,
now being performed by libbpf skeletons.
The next step is to use BTF to do pretty printing of all syscall types, as discussed with
Alan Maguire and others.
Now, on a perf built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 we get most if not all path/filenames/strings,
some of the networking data structures, perf_event_attr, etc, i.e. systemwide tracing of
nanosleep calls and perf_event_open syscalls while 'perf stat' runs 'sleep' for 5 seconds:

perf annotate:
- Building with binutils' libopcode now is opt-in (BUILD_NONDISTRO=1) for
licensing reasons, and we missed a build test on tools/perf/tests makefile.
Since we now default to NDEBUG=1, we ended up segfaulting when building with
BUILD_NONDISTRO=1 because a needed initialization routine was being "error
checked" via an assert.
Fix it by explicitly checking the result and aborting instead if it fails.
We better back propagate the error, but at least 'perf annotate' on samples
collected for a BPF program is back working when perf is built with
BUILD_NONDISTRO=1.
perf report/top:
- Add back TUI hierarchy mode header, that is seen when using 'perf report/top --hierarchy'.
- Fix the number of entries for 'e' key in the TUI that was preventing navigation of
lines when expanding an entry.
perf report/script:
- Support cross platform register handling, allowing a perf.data file collected
on one architecture to have registers sampled correctly displayed when
analysis tools such as 'perf report' and 'perf script' are used on a different
architecture.
- Fix handling of event attributes in pipe mode, i.e. when one uses:
perf record -o - | perf report -i -
When no perf.data files are used.
- Handle files generated via pipe mode with a version of perf and then read
also via pipe mode with a different version of perf, where the event attr
record may have changed, use the record size field to properly support this
version mismatch.
perf probe:
- Accessing global variables from uprobes isn't supported, make the error
message state that instead of stating that some minimal kernel version is
needed to have that feature. This seems just a tool limitation, the kernel
probably has all that is needed.
perf tests:
- Fix a reference count related leak in the dlfilter v0 API where the result
of a thread__find_symbol_fb() is not matched with an addr_location__exit()
to drop the reference counts of the resolved components (machine, thread, map,
symbol, etc). Add a dlfilter test to make sure that doesn't regresses.
- Lots of fixes for the 'perf test' written in shell script related to problems
found with the shellcheck utility.
- Fixes for 'perf test' shell scripts testing features enabled when perf is
built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1, such as 'perf stat' bpf counters.
- Add perf record sample filtering test, things like the following example, that gets
implemented as a BPF filter attached to the event:
# perf record -e task-clock -c 10000 --filter 'ip < 0xffffffff00000000'
- Improve the way the task_analyzer test checks if libtraceevent is linked,
using 'perf version --build-options' instead of the more expensinve
'perf record -e "sched:sched_switch"'.
- Add support for riscv in the mmap-basic test. (This went as well via the RiscV tree, same contents).
libperf:
- Implement riscv mmap support (This went as well via the RiscV tree, same contents).
perf script:
- New tool that converts perf.data files to the firefox profiler format so that one can use
the visualizer at https://profiler.firefox.com/. Done by Anup Sharma as part of this year's
Google Summer of Code.
One can generate the output and upload it to the web interface but Anup also automated
everything:
perf script gecko -F 99 -a sleep 60
- Support syscall name parsing on arm64.
- Print "cgroup" field on the same line as "comm".
perf bench:
- Add new 'uprobe' benchmark to measure the overhead of uprobes with/without
BPF programs attached to it.
- breakpoints are not available on power9, skip that test.
perf stat:
- Add #num_cpus_online literal to be used in 'perf stat' metrics, and add this extra
'perf test' check that exemplifies its purpose:
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus_online",
expr__parse(&num_cpus_online, ctx, "#num_cpus_online") == 0);
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus", expr__parse(&num_cpus, ctx, "#num_cpus") == 0);
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus >= #num_cpus_online", num_cpus >= num_cpus_online);
Miscellaneous:
- Improve tool startup time by lazily reading PMU, JSON, sysfs data.
- Improve error reporting in the parsing of events, passing YYLTYPE to error routines,
so that the output can show were the parsing error was found.
- Add 'perf test' entries to check the parsing of events improvements.
- Fix various leak for things detected by -fsanitize=address, mostly things that would
be freed at tool exit, including:
- Free evsel->filter on the destructor.
- Allow tools to register a thread->priv destructor and use it in 'perf trace'.
- Free evsel->priv in 'perf trace'.
- Free string returned by synthesize_perf_probe_point() when the caller fails
to do all it needs.
- Adjust various compiler options to not consider errors some warnings when
building with broken headers found in things like python, flex, bison, as we
otherwise build with -Werror. Some for gcc, some for clang, some for some
specific version of those, some for some specific version of flex or bison, or
some specific combination of these components, bah.
- Allow customization of clang options for BPF target, this helps building on
gentoo where there are other oddities where BPF targets gets passed some compiler
options intended for the native build, so building with WERROR=0 helps while
these oddities are fixed.
- Dont pass ERR_PTR() values to perf_session__delete() in 'perf top' and 'perf lock',
fixing some segfaults when handling some odd failures.
- Add LTO build option.
- Fix format of unordered lists in the perf docs (tools/perf/Documentation).
- Overhaul the bison files, using constructs such as YYNOMEM.
- Remove unused tokens from the bison .y files.
- Add more comments to various structs.
- A few LoongArch enablement patches.
Vendor events (JSON):
- Add JSON metrics for Yitian 710 DDR (aarch64). Things like:
EventName, BriefDescription
visible_window_limit_reached_rd, "At least one entry in read queue reaches the visible window limit.",
visible_window_limit_reached_wr, "At least one entry in write queue reaches the visible window limit.",
op_is_dqsosc_mpc , "A DQS Oscillator MPC command to DRAM.",
op_is_dqsosc_mrr , "A DQS Oscillator MRR command to DRAM.",
op_is_tcr_mrr , "A Temperature Compensated Refresh(TCR) MRR command to DRAM.",
- Add AmpereOne metrics (aarch64).
- Update N2 and V2 metrics (aarch64) and events using Arm telemetry repo.
- Update scale units and descriptions of common topdown metrics on aarch64. Things like:
- "MetricExpr": "stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles)",
- "BriefDescription": "Frontend bound L1 topdown metric",
+ "MetricExpr": "100 * (stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles))",
+ "BriefDescription": "This metric is the percentage of total slots that were stalled due to resource constraints in the frontend of the processor.",
- Update events for intel: meteorlake to 1.04, sapphirerapids to 1.15, Icelake+ metric constraints.
- Update files for the power10 platform.

The benchmark is similar to the pipe benchmark. It creates two processes,
one is calling syscalls, and another process is handling them via seccomp
user notifications. It measures the time required to run a specified number
of interations.

This new benchmark finds the total time that is taken to open, mmap,
enable, disable, munmap, close an evlist (time taken for new,
create_maps, config, delete is not counted in).
The evlist can be configured as in perf-record using the
-a,-C,-e,-u,--per-thread,-t,-p options.
The events can be duplicated in the evlist to quickly test performance
with many events using the -n options.
Furthermore, also the number of iterations used to calculate the
statistics is customizable.
Examples:
- Open one dummy event system-wide:
$ sudo ./perf bench internals evlist-open-close
Number of cpus: 4
Number of threads: 1
Number of events: 1 (4 fds)
Number of iterations: 100
Average open-close took: 613.870 usec (+- 32.852 usec)
- Open the group '{cs,cycles}' on CPU 0
$ sudo ./perf bench internals evlist-open-close -e '{cs,cycles}' -C 0
Number of cpus: 1
Number of threads: 1
Number of events: 2 (2 fds)
Number of iterations: 100
Average open-close took: 8503.220 usec (+- 252.652 usec)
- Open 10 'cycles' events for user 0, calculate average over 100 runs
$ sudo ./perf bench internals evlist-open-close -e cycles -n 10 -u 0 -i 100
Number of cpus: 4
Number of threads: 328
Number of events: 10 (13120 fds)
Number of iterations: 100
Average open-close took: 180043.140 usec (+- 2295.889 usec)
Committer notes:
Replaced a deprecated bzero() call with designated initialized zeroing.
Added some missing evlist allocation checks, one noted by Riccardo on
the mailing list.
Minor cosmetic changes (sent in private).

Test results:
The first ones are container based builds of tools/perf with and without libelf
support. Where clang is available, it is also used to build perf with/without
libelf, and building with LIBCLANGLLVM=1 (built-in clang) with gcc and clang
when clang and its devel libraries are installed.
The objtool and samples/bpf/ builds are disabled now that I'm switching from
using the sources in a local volume to fetching them from a http server to
build it inside the container, to make it easier to build in a container cluster.
Those will come back later.
Several are cross builds, the ones with -x-ARCH and the android one, and those
may not have all the features built, due to lack of multi-arch devel packages,
available and being used so far on just a few, like
debian:experimental-x-{arm64,mipsel}.
The 'perf test' one will perform a variety of tests exercising
tools/perf/util/, tools/lib/{bpf,traceevent,etc}, as well as run perf commands
with a variety of command line event specifications to then intercept the
sys_perf_event syscall to check that the perf_event_attr fields are set up as
expected, among a variety of other unit tests.
Then there is the 'make -C tools/perf build-test' ones, that build tools/perf/
with a variety of feature sets, exercising the build with an incomplete set of
features as well as with a complete one. It is planned to have it run on each
of the containers mentioned above, using some container orchestration
infrastructure. Get in contact if interested in helping having this in place.

In reaction to a proposal to introduce a memcpy_mcsafe_fast()
implementation Linus points out that memcpy_mcsafe() is poorly named
relative to communicating the scope of the interface. Specifically what
addresses are valid to pass as source, destination, and what faults /
exceptions are handled.
Of particular concern is that even though x86 might be able to handle
the semantics of copy_mc_to_user() with its common copy_user_generic()
implementation other archs likely need / want an explicit path for this
case:

Replace a single top-level memcpy_mcsafe() with either
copy_mc_to_user(), or copy_mc_to_kernel().
Introduce an x86 copy_mc_fragile() name as the rename for the
low-level x86 implementation formerly named memcpy_mcsafe(). It is used
as the slow / careful backend that is supplanted by a fast
copy_mc_generic() in a follow-on patch.
One side-effect of this reorganization is that separating copy_mc_64.S
to its own file means that perf no longer needs to track dependencies
for its memcpy_64.S benchmarks.

The usefulness of having a standard way of testing syscall performance
has come up from time to time[0]. Furthermore, some of our testing
machinery (such as 'mmtests') already makes use of a simplified version
of the microbenchmark. This patch mainly takes the same idea to measure
syscall throughput compatible with 'perf-bench' via getppid(2), yet
without any of the additional template stuff from Ingo's version (based
on numa.c). The code is identical to what mmtests uses.

Event synthesis may occur at the start or end (tail) of a perf command.
In system-wide mode it can scan every process in /proc, which may add
seconds of latency before event recording. Add a new benchmark that
times how long event synthesis takes with and without data synthesis.
An example execution looks like:
$ perf bench internals synthesize

This program benchmarks concurrent epoll_wait(2) for file descriptors
that are monitored with with EPOLLIN along various semantics, by a
single epoll instance. Such conditions can be found when using
single/combined or multiple queuing when load balancing.
Each thread has a number of private, nonblocking file descriptors,
referred to as fdmap. A writer thread will constantly be writing to the
fdmaps of all threads, minimizing each threads's chances of epoll_wait
not finding any ready read events and blocking as this is not what we
want to stress. Full details in the start of the C file.

memset() functionality and now I plan to add string copy benchmarks as
well.
This makes the file name a misnomer: rename it to the more generic
mem-functions.c name.

[ The "rename" was introducing __unused, wasn't removing the old file,
and didn't update tools/perf/bench/Build, fix it ]

Allows a way of measuring low level kernel implementation of FUTEX_LOCK_PI and
FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI.
The program comes in two flavors:
(i) single futex (default), all threads contend on the same uaddr. For the
sake of the benchmark, we call into kernel space even when the lock is
uncontended. The kernel will set it to TID, any waters that come in and
contend for the pi futex will be handled respectively by the kernel.
(ii) -M option for multiple futexes, each thread deals with its own futex. This
is a trivial scenario and only measures kernel handling of 0->TID transition.

The futex-wake benchmark only measures wakeups done within a single
process. While this has value in its own, it does not really generate
any hb->lock contention.
A new benchmark 'wake-parallel' is added, by extending the futex-wake
code such that we can measure parallel waker threads. The program output
shows the avg per-thread latency in order to complete its share of
wakeups:
Run summary [PID 13474]: blocking on 512 threads (at [private] futex 0xa88668), 8 threads waking up 64 at a time.
[Run 1]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.6230 ms (+-15.31%)
[Run 2]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.5175 ms (+-29.95%)
[Run 3]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.7578 ms (+-18.03%)
[Run 4]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.8944 ms (+-12.54%)
[Run 5]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 1.1204 ms (+-23.85%)
Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.7826 ms (+-9.91%)
Naturally, different combinations of numbers of blocking and waker
threads will exhibit different information.
