perf tools: Fix record failure when mixed with ARM SPE event

2020-07-31T12:29:01Z

When recording with cache-misses and arm_spe_x event, I found that it will just fail without showing any error info if i put cache-misses after 'arm_spe_x' event. [root@localhost 0620]# perf record -e cache-misses \ -e arm_spe_0/ts_enable=1,pct_enable=1,pa_enable=1,load_filter=1,jitter=1,store_filter=1,min_latency=0/ sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.067 MB perf.data ] [root@localhost 0620]# [root@localhost 0620]# perf record -e arm_spe_0/ts_enable=1,pct_enable=1,pa_enable=1,load_filter=1,jitter=1,store_filter=1,min_latency=0/ \ -e cache-misses sleep 1 [root@localhost 0620]# The current code can only work if the only event to be traced is an 'arm_spe_x', or if it is the last event to be specified. Otherwise the last event type will be checked against all the arm_spe_pmus[i]->types, none will match and an out of bound 'i' index will be used in arm_spe_recording_init(). We don't support concurrent multiple arm_spe_x events currently, that is checked in arm_spe_recording_options(), and it will show the relevant info. So add the check and record of the first found 'arm_spe_pmu' to fix this issue here.

perf tests: Fix test 68 zstd compression for s390

2020-07-31T12:27:32Z

Commit 5aa98879efe7 ("s390/cpum_sf: prohibit callchain data collection") prohibits call graph sampling for hardware events on s390. The information recorded is out of context and does not match. On s390 this commit now breaks test case 68 Zstd perf.data compression/decompression. Therefore omit call graph sampling on s390 in this test.

s390/cpum_cf,perf: change DFLT_CCERROR counter name

2020-07-21T11:53:56Z

Change the counter name DLFT_CCERROR to DLFT_CCFINISH on IBM z15. This counter counts completed DEFLATE instructions with exit code 0, 1 or 2. Since exit code 0 means success and exit code 1 or 2 indicate errors, change the counter name to avoid confusion. This counter is incremented each time the DEFLATE instruction completed regardless if an error was detected or not.

perf report TUI: Remove needless 'dummy' event from menu

2020-07-06T12:24:02Z

Fixing the common case of: perf record perf report And getting just the cycles events. We now have a 'dummy' event to get perf metadata events that take place while we synthesize metadata records for pre-existing processes by traversing procfs, so we always have this extra 'dummy' evsel, but we don't have to offer it as there will be no samples on it, remove this distraction.

perf intel-pt: Fix PEBS sample for XMM registers

The condition to add XMM registers was missing, the regs array needed to be in the outer scope, and the size of the regs array was too small.

perf intel-pt: Fix recording PEBS-via-PT with registers

2020-07-06T12:03:39Z

When recording PEBS-via-PT, the kernel will not accept the intel_pt event with register sampling e.g. # perf record --kcore -c 10000 -e '{intel_pt/branch=0/,branch-loads/aux-output/ppp}' -I -- ls -l Error: intel_pt/branch=0/: PMU Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts. Try 'perf stat' Fix by suppressing register sampling on the intel_pt evsel.

perf report TUI: Fix segmentation fault in perf_evsel__hists_browse()

2020-07-06T12:03:39Z

The segmentation fault can be reproduced as following steps: 1) Executing perf report in tui. 2) Typing '/xxxxx' to filter the symbol to get nothing matched. 3) Pressing enter with no entry selected. Then it will report a segmentation fault. It is caused by the lack of check of browser->he_selection when accessing it's member res_samples in perf_evsel__hists_browse(). These processes are meaningful for specified samples, so we can skip these when nothing is selected.
