With this patch, we can use the 'percore' event qualifier in perf-stat.
root@skl:/tmp# perf stat -e cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/,cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ -a -A -I1000
1.000773050 S0-C0 98,352,832 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/ (50.01%)
1.000773050 S0-C1 103,763,057 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/ (50.02%)
1.000773050 S0-C2 196,776,995 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/ (50.02%)
1.000773050 S0-C3 176,493,779 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/ (50.02%)
1.000773050 CPU0 47,699,641 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (50.02%)
1.000773050 CPU1 49,052,451 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU2 102,771,422 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU3 100,784,662 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU4 43,171,342 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU5 54,152,158 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU6 93,618,410 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU7 74,477,589 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.99%)
In this example, we count the event 'ref-cycles' per-core and per-CPU in
one perf stat command-line. From the output, we can see:
S0-C0 = CPU0 + CPU4
S0-C1 = CPU1 + CPU5
S0-C2 = CPU2 + CPU6
S0-C3 = CPU3 + CPU7
So the result is expected (tiny difference is ignored).
Note that, the 'percore' event qualifier needs to use with option '-A'.

Add a 'percore' event qualifier, like cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/,
that sums up the event counts for both hardware threads in a core.
We can already do this with --per-core, but it's often useful to do
this together with other metrics that are collected per hardware thread.
So we need to support this per-core counting on a event level.
This can be implemented in only the user tool, no kernel support needed.
v4:
---
1. Add Arnaldo's patch which updates the documentation for
this new qualifier.
2. Rebase to latest perf/core branch
v3:
---
Simplify the code according to Jiri's comments.
Before:
"return term->val.percore ? true : false;"
Now:
"return term->val.percore;"
v2:
---
Change the qualifier name from 'coresum' to 'percore' according to
comments from Jiri and Andi.

'perf report' displays recorded data on the screen and emits warnings
and debug messages in the status line (last one on screen).
perf also supports the possibility to write all debug messages to stderr
(instead of writing them to the status line).
This is achieved with the following command:
# ./perf --debug stderr=1 report -vvvvv -i ~/fast.data 2>/tmp/2
# ll /tmp/2
-rw-rw-r-- 1 tmricht tmricht 5420835 May 7 13:46 /tmp/2
#
The usage of variable stderr=1 is not documented, so add it to the perf
man page.

Implemented -z,--compression_level[=<n>] option that enables compression
of mmaped kernel data buffers content in runtime during perf record mode
collection. Default option value is 1 (fastest compression).
Compression overhead has been measured for serial and AIO streaming when
profiling matrix multiplication workload:
-------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------|
|-z | OVH(x) | ratio(x) size(MiB) | OVH(x) | ratio(x) size(MiB) |

-----------------------------------------------------------------
OVH = (Execution time with -z N) / (Execution time with -z 0)
ratio - compression ratio
size - number of bytes that was compressed
size ~= trace size x ratio
Committer notes:
Testing it I noticed that it failed to disable build id processing when
compression is enabled, and as we'd have to uncompress everything to
look for the PERF_RECORD_{MMAP,SAMPLE,etc} to figure out which build ids
to read from DSOs, we better disable build id processing when
compression is enabled, logging with pr_debug() when doing so:
Original patch:
# perf record -z2
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
0x1746e0 [0x76]: failed to process type: 81 [Invalid argument]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.568 MB perf.data, compressed (original 0.452 MB, ratio is 3.995) ]
#
After auto-disabling build id processing when compression is enabled:
$ perf record -z2 sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.001 MB perf.data, compressed (original 0.001 MB, ratio is 2.292) ]
$ perf record -v -z2 sleep 1
Compression enabled, disabling build id collection at the end of the session.
<SNIP extra -v pr_debug() messages>
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.001 MB perf.data, compressed (original 0.001 MB, ratio is 2.305) ]
$
Also, with parts of the patch originally after this one moved to just
before this one we get:
$ perf record -z2 sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.001 MB perf.data, compressed (original 0.001 MB, ratio is 2.371) ]
$ perf report -D | grep COMPRESS

0 0x30d [0x80]: PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED: unhandled!
COMPRESSED events: 2
COMPRESSED events: 0
$
I.e. when faced with PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED that we still have no code
to process, we just show it as not being handled, skip them and
continue, while before we had:
$ perf report -D | grep COMPRESS
0x1b8 [0x169]: failed to process type: 81 [Invalid argument]
Error:

feature and functions to write, read and print feature attributes from
the trace header section.
comp_mmap_len preserves the size of mmaped kernel buffer that was used

Implement a --mmap-flush option that specifies minimal number of bytes
that is extracted from mmaped kernel buffer to store into a trace. The
default option value is 1 byte what means every time trace writing
thread finds some new data in the mmaped buffer the data is extracted,
possibly compressed and written to a trace.
$ tools/perf/perf record --mmap-flush 1024 -e cycles -- matrix.gcc
$ tools/perf/perf record --aio --mmap-flush 1K -e cycles -- matrix.gcc
The option is independent from -z setting, doesn't vary with compression
level and can serve two purposes.
The first purpose is to increase the compression ratio of a trace data.
Larger data chunks are compressed more effectively so the implemented
option allows specifying data chunk size to compress. Also at some cases
executing more write syscalls with smaller data size can take longer
than executing less write syscalls with bigger data size due to syscall
overhead so extracting bigger data chunks specified by the option value
could additionally decrease runtime overhead.
The second purpose is to avoid self monitoring live-lock issue in system
wide (-a) profiling mode. Profiling in system wide mode with compression
(-a -z) can additionally induce data into the kernel buffers along with
the data from monitored processes. If performance data rate and volume
from the monitored processes is high then trace streaming and
compression activity in the tool is also high. High tool process
activity can lead to subtle live-lock effect when compression of single
new byte from some of mmaped kernel buffer leads to generation of the
next single byte at some mmaped buffer. So perf tool process ends up in
endless self monitoring.
Implemented synch parameter is the mean to force data move independently
from the specified flush threshold value. Despite the provided flush
value the tool needs capability to unconditionally drain memory buffers,
at least in the end of the collection.
Committer testing:
Running with the default value, i.e. as soon as there is something to
read go on consuming, we first write the synthesized events, small
chunks of about 128 bytes:
# perf trace -m 2048 --call-graph dwarf -e write -- perf record
<SNIP>
101.142 ( 0.004 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x210db60, count: 120) = 120

process_synthesized_event (/home/acme/bin/perf)

perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events (/home/acme/bin/perf)
Then we move to reading the mmap buffers consuming the events put there
by the kernel perf infrastructure:
107.561 ( 0.005 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7f1befc02000, count: 336) = 336

<SNIP same backtrace as in the 107.561 timestamp>
If we limit it to write only when more than 16MB are available for
reading, it throttles that to a quarter of the --mmap-pages set for
'perf record', which by default get to 528384 bytes, found out using
'record -v':
mmap flush: 132096
mmap size 528384B
With that in place all the writes coming from
record__mmap_read_evlist(), i.e. from the mmap buffers setup by the
kernel perf infrastructure were at least 132096 bytes long.
Trying with a bigger mmap size:
perf trace -e write perf record -v -m 2048 --mmap-flush 16M
74982.928 ( 2.471 ms): perf/26500 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7ff94a6cc000, count: 3580888) = 3580888

Was again limited to a quarter of the mmap size:
mmap flush: 2098176
mmap size 8392704B
A warning about that would be good to have but can be added later,
something like:
"max flush is a quarter of the mmap size, if wanting to bump the mmap
flush further, bump the mmap size as well using -m/--mmap-pages"
Also rename the 'sync' parameters to 'synch' to keep tools/perf building

AddressSanitizer (or ASan) and UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer (or UBSan) are
very useful tools to detect program bugs:
- AddressSanitizer (or ASan) is a GCC feature that detects memory
corruption bugs such as buffer overflows and memory leaks.
- UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer (or UBSan) is a fast undefined behavior
detector supported by GCC. UBSan detects undefined behaviors of programs
at runtime.
This patch adds a document about how to use them on perf. Later patches will fix
some of the issues disclosed by them.

The -c option to enable multiplex scaling has been useless for quite
some time because scaling is default.
It's only useful as --no-scale to disable scaling. But the non scaling
code path has bitrotted and doesn't print anything because perf output
code relies on value run/ena information.
Also even when we don't want to scale a value it's still useful to show
its multiplex percentage.
This patch:
- Fixes help and documentation to show --no-scale instead of -c
- Removes -c, only keeps the long option because -c doesn't support negatives.
- Enables running/enabled even with --no-scale
- And fixes some other problems in the no-scale output.

When doing long term recording and waiting for some event to snapshot
on, we often only care about the last minute or so.
The --switch-output command line option supports rotating the perf.data
file when the size exceeds a threshold. But the disk would still be
filled with unnecessary old files.
Add a new option to only keep a number of rotated files, so that the
disk space usage can be limited.

Now 'perf report' can show whole time periods with 'perf script', but
the user still has to find individual samples of interest manually.
It would be expensive and complicated to search for the right samples in
the whole perf file. Typically users only need to look at a small number
of samples for useful analysis.
Also the full scripts tend to show samples of all CPUs and all threads
mixed up, which can be very confusing on larger systems.
Add a new --samples option to save a small random number of samples per
hist entry.
Use a reservoir sample technique to select a representatve number of
samples.
Then allow browsing the samples using 'perf script' as part of the hist
entry context menu. This automatically adds the right filters, so only
the thread or cpu of the sample is displayed. Then we use less' search
functionality to directly jump the to the time stamp of the selected
sample.
It uses different menus for assembler and source display. Assembler
needs xed installed and source needs debuginfo.
Currently it only supports as many samples as fit on the screen due to
some limitations in the slang ui code.

Many workloads change over time. 'perf report' currently aggregates the
whole time range reported in perf.data.
This patch adds an option for a time quantum to quantisize the perf.data

This just adds the option, will be used in follow on patches for a time

To improve 'perf diff', implement a --cpu filter option.
Multiple CPUs can be provided as a comma-separated list with no space:
0,1. Ranges of CPUs are specified with -: 0-2. Default is to report
samples on all CPUs.
For example,
perf diff --cpu 0,1
It only diff the samples for CPU0 and CPU1.

To improve 'perf diff', implement a --time filter option to diff the
samples within given time window.
It supports time percent with multiple time ranges. The time string
format is 'a%/n,b%/m,...' or 'a%-b%,c%-%d,...'.
For example:
Select the second 10% time slice to diff:
perf diff --time 10%/2
Select from 0% to 10% time slice to diff:
perf diff --time 0%-10%
Select the first and the second 10% time slices to diff:
perf diff --time 10%/1,10%/2
Select from 0% to 10% and 30% to 40% slices to diff:
perf diff --time 0%-10%,30%-40%
It also supports analysing samples within a given time window
<start>,<stop>.
Times have the format seconds.microseconds.
If 'start' is not given (i.e., time string is ',x.y') then analysis starts at
the beginning of the file.
If the stop time is not given (i.e, time string is 'x.y,') then analysis
goes to end of file.
Time string is 'a1.b1,c1.d1:a2.b2,c2.d2'. Use ':' to separate timestamps for
different perf.data files.
For example, we get the timestamp information from perf script.
perf script -i perf.data.old
mgen 13940 [000] 3946.361400: ...
perf script -i perf.data
mgen 13940 [000] 3971.150589 ...
perf diff --time 3946.361400,:3971.150589,
It analyzes the perf.data.old from the timestamp 3946.361400 to the end of
perf.data.old and analyzes the perf.data from the timestamp 3971.150589 to the
end of perf.data.

I was trigger happy on this one, as using ordered_events as implemented
by Jiri for use with the --block code under discussion on lkml incurs
in delaying processing to form batches that then get ordered and then
printed.
With 'perf trace' we want to process the events as they go, without that
delay, and doing it that way works well for the common case which is to
trace a thread or a workload started by 'perf trace'.
So revert back to not using ordered_events but add an option to select
that mode so that users can experiment with their particular use case to
see if works better, i.e. if the added delay is not a problem and the
ordering helps.

very useful to see the source code. This adds a simple facility to print
them with 'perf script', if the information is available through dwarf

The default timeout of 500ms for parsing /proc/<pid>/maps files is too
short for profiling many of our services.
This can be overridden by passing --proc-map-timeout to the relevant
command but it'd be nice to globally increase our default value.
This patch permits setting a different default with the
core.proc-map-timeout config file parameter.

Go over the tools/ files that are maintained in Arnaldo's tree and
fix common typos: half of them were in comments, the other half
in JSON files.
No change in functionality intended.
Committer notes:
This was split from a larger patch as there are code that is,
additionally, maintained outside the kernel tree, so to ease cherry
picking and/or backporting, split this into multiple patches.
In this particular case, it affects documentation, so may be interesting
to cherry pick as it is information that is presented to the user.

Multi AIO trace writing allows caching more kernel data into userspace
memory postponing trace writing for the sake of overall profiling data
thruput increase. It could be seen as kernel data buffer extension into
userspace memory.
With an --aio option value different from 0 (default value is 1) the
tool has capability to cache more and more data into user space along
with delegating spill to AIO.
That allows avoiding to suspend at record__aio_sync() between calls of
record__mmap_read_evlist() and increases profiling data thruput at the
cost of userspace memory.

The trace file offset is read once before mmaps iterating loop and
written back after all performance data is enqueued for aio writing.
The trace file offset is incremented linearly after every successful aio
write operation.
record__aio_sync() blocks till completion of the started AIO operation
and then proceeds.
record__aio_mmap_read_sync() implements a barrier for all incomplete
aio write requests.

This basically replicates what was done for 'perf report' in:
b226a5a729 ("perf report: Allow user to specify path to kallsyms file")
This should help with resolving eBPF symbols, that are in kallsyms but,
of course, not in vmlinux.

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.

Implement a weak group fallback for 'perf record', similar to the
existing 'perf stat' support. This allows to use groups that might be
longer than the available counters without failing.

Enabling --overwrite mode allows us to to use just the most recent
records, which helps in high core count machines such as Knights
Landing/Mill, but right now is being disabled by default as the pausing
used in this technique is leading to loss of metadata events such as
PERF_RECORD_MMAP which makes 'perf top' unable to resolve samples,
leading to lots of unknown samples appearing on the UI.
Enabling this may be useful if you are in such machines and profiling a
workload that doesn't creates short lived threads and/or doesn't uses
many executable mmap operations.
Work is being planed to solve this situation, till then, this will
remain disabled by default.
