<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit d4a98b45fbe6d06f4b79ed90d0bb05ced8674c23 ]

The trace could be misleading if trace errors are not taken into
account, so display them also by adding the itrace "e" option.

Note --call-trace and --call-ret-trace already add the itrace "e"
option.

<title>perf auxtrace: Fix multiple use of --itrace option</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7063f15d2ae214fe00fae30b06e8bb47c56e8506</id>
<content type='text'>
commit bb69c912c4e8005cf1ee6c63782d2fc28838dee2 upstream.

If the --itrace option is used more than once, the options are
combined, but "i" and "y" (sub-)options can be corrupted because
itrace_do_parse_synth_opts() incorrectly overwrites the period type and
period with default values.

For example, with:

	--itrace=i0ns --itrace=e

The processing of "--itrace=e", resets the "i" period from 0 nanoseconds
to the default 100 microseconds.

Fix by performing the default setting of period type and period only if
"i" or "y" are present in the currently processed --itrace value.

commit 6e4b398770d5023eb6383da9360a23bd537c155b upstream.

When 'perf sched' enables the call-graph recording, sample_type of dummy
event does not have PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN, timehist_check_attr() checks
that the evsel does not have a callchain, and set show_callchain to 0.

Currently 'perf sched timehist' only saves callchain when processing the
'sched:sched_switch event', timehist_check_attr() only needs to determine
whether the event has PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN.

Before:

  # perf sched record -g true
  [ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 4.153 MB perf.data (7536 samples) ]
  # perf sched timehist

a multi character string. This will be used in a test in a following
commit.

[ Upstream commit d9c5f5f94c2d356fdf3503f7fcaf254512bc032d ]

Sys events are eagerly loaded as each event has a compat option that may
mean the event is or isn't associated with the PMU.

These shouldn't be counted as loaded_json_events as that is used for
JSON events matching the CPUID that may or may not have been loaded. The
mismatch causes issues on ARM64 that uses sys events.

<title>perf pmu: Assume sysfs events are always the same case</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4ac93db3dd4d87b005c5c1c9a51afe0b2a09386f</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 7b6dd7a923281a7ccb980a0f768d6926721eb3cc ]

Perf event names aren't case sensitive. For sysfs events the entire
directory of events is read then iterated comparing names in a case
insensitive way, most often to see if an event is present.

Consider:

  $ perf stat -e inst_retired.any true

The event inst_retired.any may be present in any PMU, so every PMU's
sysfs events are loaded and then searched with strcasecmp to see if
any match. This event is only present on the cpu PMU as a JSON event
so a lot of events were loaded from sysfs unnecessarily just to prove
an event didn't exist there.

This change avoids loading all the events by assuming sysfs event
names are always either lower or uppercase. It uses file exists and
only loads the events when the desired event is present.

For the example above, the number of openat calls measured by 'perf
trace' on a tigerlake laptop goes from 325 down to 255. The reduction
will be larger for machines with many PMUs, particularly replicated
uncore PMUs.

Ensure pmu_aliases_parse() is called before all uses of the aliases
list, but remove some "pmu-&gt;sysfs_aliases_loaded" tests as they are now
part of the function.

[ Upstream commit 67ee8e71daabb8632931b7559e5c8a4b69a427f8 ]

Add perf_pmu__name_from_config that does a reverse lookup from a
config number to an alias name. The lookup is expensive as the config
is computed for every alias by filling in a perf_event_attr, but this
is only done when verbose output is enabled. The lookup also only
considers config, and not config1, config2 or config3.

An example of the output:

  $ perf stat -vv -e data_read true
  ...
  perf_event_attr:
    type                             24 (uncore_imc_free_running_0)
    size                             136
    config                           0x20ff (data_read)
    sample_type                      IDENTIFIER
    read_format                      TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING
    disabled                         1
    inherit                          1
    exclude_guest                    1
  ...

Committer notes:

Fix the python binding build by adding dummies for not strictly
needed perf_pmu__name_from_config() and perf_pmus__find_by_type().

[ Upstream commit 7093882067e2e2f88d3449c35c5f0f3f566c8a26 ]

When dumping a perf_event_attr, use pmus to find the PMU and its name
by the type number. This allows dynamically added PMUs to be described.

Before:

  $ perf stat -vv -e data_read true
  ...
  perf_event_attr:
    type                             24
    size                             136
    config                           0x20ff
    sample_type                      IDENTIFIER
    read_format                      TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING
    disabled                         1
    inherit                          1
    exclude_guest                    1
  ...

After:

  $ perf stat -vv -e data_read true
  ...
  perf_event_attr:
    type                             24 (uncore_imc_free_running_0)
    size                             136
    config                           0x20ff
    sample_type                      IDENTIFIER
    read_format                      TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING
    disabled                         1
    inherit                          1
    exclude_guest                    1
  ...

However, it also means that when we have a PMU name we prefer it to a
hard coded name:

Before:

  $ perf stat -vv -e faults true
  ...
  perf_event_attr:
    type                             1 (PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE)
    size                             136
    config                           0x2 (PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS)
    sample_type                      IDENTIFIER
    read_format                      TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING
    disabled                         1
    inherit                          1
    enable_on_exec                   1
    exclude_guest                    1
  ...

After:

  $ perf stat -vv -e faults true
  ...
  perf_event_attr:
    type                             1 (software)
    size                             136
    config                           0x2 (PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS)
    sample_type                      IDENTIFIER
    read_format                      TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING
    disabled                         1
    inherit                          1
    enable_on_exec                   1
    exclude_guest                    1
  ...

It feels more consistent to do this, rather than only prefer a PMU
name when a hard coded name isn't available.

<title>perf pmu: "Compat" supports regular expression matching identifiers</title>

[ Upstream commit 2879ff36f5ed80deec5f9d82a7a4107f2347630e ]

The jevent "Compat" is used for uncore PMU alias or metric definitions.

The same PMU driver has different PMU identifiers due to different
hardware versions and types, but they may have some common PMU event.
Since a Compat value can only match one identifier, when adding the
same event alias to PMUs with different identifiers, each identifier
needs to be defined once, which is not streamlined enough.

So let "Compat" support using regular expression to match identifiers
for uncore PMU alias. For example, if the "Compat" value is set to
"43401|43c01", it would be able to match PMU identifiers such as "43401"
or "43c01", which correspond to CMN600_r0p0 or CMN700_r0p0.
