This patch updates the PEBS support for Intel Atom to provide
an alias for the cycles:pp event used by perf record/top by default
nowadays.
On Atom, only INST_RETIRED:ANY supports PEBS, so we use this event
instead with a large cmask to count cycles. Given that Core2 has
the same issue, we use the intel_pebs_aliases_core2() function for Atom
as well.

This patches fixes the LBR kernel crashes on Intel Atom.
The kernel was assuming that if the CPU supports 64-bit format

perf/x86: Fix filter_events() bug with event mappings
This patch fixes a bug in the filter_events() function.
The patch fixes the bug whereby if some mappings did not
exist, e.g., STALLED_CYCLES_FRONTEND, then any event after it
in the attrs array would disappear from the published list of
events in /sys/devices/cpu/events. This could be verified
easily on any system post SNB (which do not publish
STALLED_CYCLES_FRONTEND):
$ ./perf stat -e cycles,ref-cycles true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
1,217,348 cycles
<not supported> ref-cycles
The problem is that in filter_events() there is an assumption
that the argument (attrs) is organized in increasing continuous
event indexes related to the event_map(). But if we remove the
non-supported events by shifing the position in the array, then
the lookup x86_pmu.event_map() needs to compensate for it, otherwise
we are looking up the wrong index. This patch corrects this problem
by compensating for the deleted events and with that ref-cycles
reappears (here shown on Haswell):
$ perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
4,525,910 ref-cycles

Add a new 'three-p' precise level, that uses INST_RETIRED.PREC_DIST as
base. The basic mechanism of abusing the inverse cmask to get all
cycles works the same as before.
PREC_DIST is available on Sandy Bridge or later. It had some problems
on Sandy Bridge, so we only use it on IvyBridge and later. I tested it
on Broadwell and Skylake.
PREC_DIST has special support for avoiding shadow effects, which can
give better results compare to UOPS_RETIRED. The drawback is that
PREC_DIST can only schedule on counter 1, but that is ok for cycle
sampling, as there is normally no need to do multiple cycle sampling
runs in parallel. It is still possible to run perf top in parallel, as
that doesn't use precise mode. Also of course the multiplexing can
still allow parallel operation.

I added UOPS_RETIRED.ALL by mistake to the Skylake PEBS event list for

issues.
The recommended replacement for cycles:pp is to use
INST_RETIRED.ANY+pebs as a base, similar to what CPUs before Sandy
Bridge did. This new event is called INST_RETIRED.TOTAL_CYCLES_PS. The
event is not really new, but has been already used by perf before
Sandy Bridge for the original cycles:p
Note the SDM doesn't document that event either, but it's being
documented in the latest version of the event list on:
https://download.01.org/perfmon/SKL
This patch does:
- Remove UOPS_RETIRED.ALL from the Skylake PEBS event list
- Add INST_RETIRED.ANY to the Skylake PEBS event list, and an table entry to
allow cmask=16,inv=1 for cycles:pp
- We don't need an extra entry for the base INST_RETIRED event,
because it is already covered by the catch-all PEBS table entry.
- Switch Skylake to use the Core2 PEBS alias (which is
INST_RETIRED.TOTAL_CYCLES_PS)

perf/core: Collapse more IPI loops
This patch collapses the two 'hard' cases, which are
perf_event_{dis,en}able().
I cannot seem to convince myself the current code is correct.
So starting with perf_event_disable(); we don't strictly need to test
for event->state == ACTIVE, ctx->is_active is enough. If the event is
not scheduled while the ctx is, __perf_event_disable() still does the
right thing. Its a little less efficient to IPI in that case,
over-all simpler.
For perf_event_enable(); the same goes, but I think that's actually
broken in its current form. The current condition is: ctx->is_active
&& event->state == OFF, that means it doesn't do anything when
!ctx->active && event->state == OFF. This is wrong, it should still
mark the event INACTIVE in that case, otherwise we'll still not try
and schedule the event once the context becomes active again.
This patch implements the two function using the new
event_function_call() and does away with the tricky event->state
tests.

perf: Fix race in swevent hash
There's a race on CPU unplug where we free the swevent hash array
while it can still have events on. This will result in a
use-after-free which is BAD.
Simply do not free the hash array on unplug. This leaves the thing
around and no use-after-free takes place.
When the last swevent dies, we do a for_each_possible_cpu() iteration
anyway to clean these up, at which time we'll free it, so no leakage
will occur.
Which is a WARN_ON_ONCE() indicating that cpuctx->task_ctx is not
what we expected it to be.
This is because context switches can swap the task_struct::perf_event_ctxp[]
pointer around. Therefore you have to either disable preemption when looking
at current, or hold ctx->lock.
Fix perf_event_enable_on_exec(), it loads current->perf_event_ctxp[]
before disabling interrupts, therefore a preemption in the right place
can swap contexts around and we're using the wrong one.

capabilities perf has instead of defining a 'perf stat' specific scripting
support to calculate event ratios, etc. Simple example:
This patchset abandons the idea of new formula language and rather adds support
to:
- store stat data into perf.data file
- add python support to process stat events
Basically it allows to store stat data into perf.data and post process it with
python scripts in a similar way we do for sampling data.
The stat data are stored in new stat, stat-round, stat-config user events.
stat - stored for each read syscall of the counter
stat round - stored for each interval or end of the command invocation
stat config - stores all the config information needed to process data
so report tool could restore the same output as record
The python script can now define 'stat__<eventname>_<modifier>' functions
to get stat events data and 'stat__interval' to get stat-round data.
See CPI script example in scripts/python/stat-cpi.py."

- Automatically disable collecting branch flags and cycles with

set to get a proper backtrace (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Initialize the refcnt in 'struct thread' to 1 and fixup its

perf stat record: Add record command
Add 'perf stat record' command support. It creates simple (header only)
perf.data file ATM.
The record command could be specified anywhere among stat options. All
stat command options are valid for stat record command with '-o' option
exception. If specified for record command it denotes the perf data file
name.
Committer note:
Set sample_type to PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER, which should be harmless
while avoiding that older tools show confusing messages, for instance,
with sample_type = 0, we get:
$ oldperf evlist
WARNING: The perf.data file's data size field is 0 which is unexpected.
Was the 'perf record' command properly terminated?
non matching sample_type
$
While with sample_type set to PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER, after we re-run 'perf
stat record usleep' we get:
$ oldperf evlist
WARNING: The perf.data file's data size field is 0 which is unexpected.
Was the 'perf record' command properly terminated?
task-clock
context-switches
cpu-migrations
page-faults
cycles
stalled-cycles-frontend
stalled-cycles-backend
instructions
branches
branch-misses
$
Which at least shows the names of the events in the perf.data file.
Additionally, such files, when passed to 'perf report' will produce:
$ oldperf report --stdio
WARNING: The perf.data file's data size field is 0 which is unexpected.
Was the 'perf record' command properly terminated?
Warning:
Kernel address maps (/proc/{kallsyms,modules}) were restricted.
Check /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict before running 'perf record'.
As no suitable kallsyms nor vmlinux was found, kernel samples
can't be resolved.
Samples in kernel modules can't be resolved as well.
Error:
The perf.data file has no samples!
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.

$
Which is confusing and can be solved by just adding the kernel mmap record,
which will also remove that warning about the data size field being equal to
zero, after generating the mmap record:
$ oldperf evlist

perf record: Add record.build-id config option
Post processing at 'perf record' takes a long time on big machines.
What it does is to find the build-id of binaries found in the event
stream, so that it can make sure, at 'report' time, that the symtabs (be
it ELF, kallsyms, etc) being used to resolve symbols are the ones
matching the binaries found at 'record' time.
Sometimes we just want to skip this processing of events at the end of
the session to get quicker results, making sure the binaries haven't
changed from 'record' to 'report' time.
Add a new config option to control this behavior.
The record.build-id config variable can have one of the following
values:
- cache: post-process data and save/update the binaries into the
build-id cache (in ~/.debug). This is the default.
- no-cache: post-process the data but not update the build-id cache.
Same effect as using the -N option.
- skip: skip post-processing and do not update the cache.

perf tools: Make options always available, even if required libs not linked
This patch keeps options of perf builtins same in all conditions. If
one option is disabled because of compiling options, users should be
notified.
Masami suggested another implementation in [1] that, by adding a
OPTION_NEXT_DEPENDS option before those options in the 'struct option'
array, options parser knows an option is disabled. However, in some
cases this array is reordered (options__order()). In addition, in
parse-option.c that array is const, so we can't simply merge
information in decorator option into the affacted option.
This patch chooses a simpler implementation that, introducing a
set_option_nobuild() function and two option parsing flags. Builtins
with such options should call set_option_nobuild() before option
parsing. The complexity of this patch is because we want some of options
can be skipped safely. In this case their arguments should also be
consumed.
Options in 'perf record' and 'perf probe' are fixed in this patch.

perf tools: Move help_unknown_cmd() to its own file
help_unknown_cmd() is quite perf-specific because it relies on some

Because the Build file writes source code to the generated llvm-src-*.c

perf test: Fix hist testcases when kptr_restrict is on
Currently if kptr_restrict is enabled, all hist tests failed with
segfaults. This is because machine__create_kernel_maps() in
setup_fake_machine() failed in that situation, and it called
machine__delete() on the error path. But outer callers again called
machines__exit() causing double free for the host machine.

perf evsel: Disable branch flags/cycles for --callgraph lbr
[The kernel patch needed for this is in tip now (b16a5b52eb9 perf/x86:
Add option to disable ...) So this user tools patch to make use of it
should be merged now]
Automatically disable collecting branch flags and cycles with
--call-graph lbr. This allows avoiding a bunch of extra MSR
reads in the PMI on Skylake.
When the kernel doesn't support the new flags they are automatically
cleared in the fallback code.
v2: Switch to use branch_sample_type instead of sample_type.
Adjust description.
Fix the fallback logic.
If any reference is made to that 'thread' variable, it better use
thread__get(thread) to hold a reference.
We were returning with thread->refcnt set to zero, fix it and some cases
where thread__delete() was being called, which were not a problem
because just one reference was being used, now that we set it to 1, use
thread__put() instead.

perf tools: Use same signal handling strategy as 'record'
I.e. don't exit with the signal number, instead set the signal handler
to the default one and then raise it again.
Noticed while trying to dump the stack at segfaults in the 'perf test'
forked process used to run each test, that inspects signal info at
each test.

sched/wait: Fix the signal handling fix
Jan Stancek reported that I wrecked things for him by fixing things for
Vladimir :/
His report was due to an UNINTERRUPTIBLE wait getting -EINTR, which
should not be possible, however my previous patch made this possible by
unconditionally checking signal_pending().
We cannot use current->state as was done previously, because the
instruction after the store to that variable it can be changed. We must
instead pass the initial state along and use that.
