This patchset addes two new sets of files to sysfs for POWER architecture.
- perf event config format in /sys/devices/cpu/format/event
- generic and POWER-specific perf events in /sys/devices/cpu/events/
The format of the first file is already documented in:
sysfs-bus-event_source-devices-format
Document the format of the second set of files '/sys/devices/cpu/events/*'
which would also become part of the ABI.
Changelog[v4]:
[Jiri Olsa]: Mention that multiple event= like terms can be specified
in the 'events' file.
[Jiri Olsa]: Remove the documentation for the 'config format' file
as it is already documented in 'Documentation/ABI/testing/'.
[Jiri Olsa]: Move ABI documentation from 'stable/' to 'testing/'
Changelog[v3]:
[Greg KH] Include ABI documentation.

where the 'PM_*' events are POWER specific and the others are the
generic events.
This will enable users to specify these events with their symbolic
names rather than with their raw code.

Add report.group config option for setting default value of event
group view. It affects the report output only if perf.data contains
event group info.
A user can write .perfconfig file like below to enable group view by
default:
$ cat ~/.perfconfig
[report]
group = true
And it can be disabled through command line:
$ perf report --no-group

When using event group viewer, it's better to show the group description
rather than the leader information alone.
If a leader did not contain any member, it's a non-group event.

The hpp helpers do same job for each field so it was implemented as
macro in order to access those fields easily. But it gets cumbersome to
maintain a large function in a macro as the function grows. Factor it
out to a function with a little helper macro to access field.

Ftrace has a snapshot feature available from kernel space and
latency tracers (e.g. irqsoff) are using it. This patch enables
user applictions to take a snapshot via debugfs.
Add "snapshot" debugfs file in "tracing" directory.
snapshot:
This is used to take a snapshot and to read the output of the
snapshot.
# echo 1 > snapshot
This will allocate the spare buffer for snapshot (if it is
not allocated), and take a snapshot.
# cat snapshot
This will show contents of the snapshot.
# echo 0 > snapshot
This will free the snapshot if it is allocated.
Any other positive values will clear the snapshot contents if
the snapshot is allocated, or return EINVAL if it is not allocated.

Currently the trace buffer read functions use a static variable
"old_tracer" for detecting if the current tracer changes. This
was suitable for a single trace file ("trace"), but to add a
snapshot feature that will use the same function for its file,
a check against a static variable is not sufficient.
To use the output functions for two different files, instead of
storing the current tracer in a static variable, as the trace
iterator descriptor contains a pointer to the original current
tracer's name, that pointer can now be used to check if the
current tracer has changed between different reads of the trace
file.

For systems with an unstable sched_clock, all cpu_clock() does is enable/
disable local irq during the call to sched_clock_cpu(). And for stable
systems they are same.
trace_clock_global() already disables interrupts, so it can call
sched_clock_cpu() directly.

We print several '__u64' quantities using '%llu'. On powerpc, we by
default include '<asm-generic/int-l64.h> which results in __u64 being an
unsigned long. This causes compile warnings which are treated as errors
due to '-Werror'.
By defining __SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__ we include <asm-generic/int-ll64.h>
and define __u64 as unsigned long long.
Changelog[v2]:
[Michael Ellerman] Use __SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__ and avoid PRIu64
format specifier - which as Jiri Olsa pointed out, breaks on x86-64.

This patch adds a new printing mode for perf stat. It allows interval
printing. That means perf stat can now print event deltas at regular
time interval. This is useful to detect phases in programs.
The -I option enables interval printing. It expects an interval duration
in milliseconds. Minimum is 100ms. Once, activated perf stat prints
events deltas since last printout. All modes are supported.
$ perf stat -I 1000 -e cycles noploop 10
noploop for 10 seconds
# time counts events
1.000109853 2,388,560,546 cycles
2.000262846 2,393,332,358 cycles
3.000354131 2,393,176,537 cycles
4.000439503 2,393,203,790 cycles
5.000527075 2,393,167,675 cycles
6.000609052 2,393,203,670 cycles
7.000691082 2,393,175,678 cycles
The output format makes it easy to feed into a plotting program such as
gnuplot when the -I option is used in combination with the -x option:
$ perf stat -x, -I 1000 -e cycles noploop 10
noploop for 10 seconds
1.000084113,2378775498,cycles
2.000245798,2391056897,cycles

Add a suite of NUMA performance benchmarks.
The goal was simulate the behavior and access patterns of real NUMA
workloads, via a wide range of parameters, so this tool goes well
beyond simple bzero() measurements that most NUMA micro-benchmarks use:
- It processes the data and creates a chain of data dependencies,
like a real workload would. Neither the compiler, nor the
kernel (via KSM and other optimizations) nor the CPU can
eliminate parts of the workload.
- It randomizes the initial state and also randomizes the target
addresses of the processing - it's not a simple forward scan
of addresses.
- It provides flexible options to set process, thread and memory
relationship information: -G sets "global" memory shared between
all test processes, -P sets "process" memory shared by all
threads of a process and -T sets "thread" private memory.
- There's a NUMA convergence monitoring and convergence latency
measurement option via -c and -m.
- Micro-sleeps and synchronization can be injected to provoke lock
contention and scheduling, via the -u and -S options. This simulates
IO and contention.
- The -x option instructs the workload to 'perturb' itself artificially
every N seconds, by moving to the first and last CPU of the system
periodically. This way the stability of convergence equilibrium and
the number of steps taken for the scheduler to reach equilibrium again
can be measured.
- The amount of work can be specified via the -l loop count, and/or
via a -s seconds-timeout value.
- CPU and node memory binding options, to test hard binding scenarios.
THP can be turned on and off via madvise() calls.
- Live reporting of convergence progress in an 'at glance' output format.
Printing of convergence and deconvergence events.
The 'perf bench numa mem -a' option will start an array of about 30
individual tests that will each output such measurements:
# Running 5x5-bw-thread, "perf bench numa mem -p 5 -t 5 -P 512 -s 20 -zZ0q --thp 1"

While debugging the virtual cputime with the function graph tracer
with a max_depth of 1 (most common use of the max_depth so far),
I found that I was missing kernel execution because of a race condition.
The code for the return side of the function has a slight race:
ftrace_pop_return_trace(&trace, &ret, frame_pointer);
trace.rettime = trace_clock_local();
ftrace_graph_return(&trace);
barrier();
current->curr_ret_stack--;
The ftrace_pop_return_trace() initializes the trace structure for
the callback. The ftrace_graph_return() uses the trace structure
for its own use as that structure is on the stack and is local
to this function. Then the curr_ret_stack is decremented which
is what the trace.depth is set to.
If an interrupt comes in after the ftrace_graph_return() but
before the curr_ret_stack, then the called function will get
a depth of 2. If max_depth is set to 1 this function will be
ignored.
The problem is that the trace has already been called, and the
timestamp for that trace will not reflect the time the function
was about to re-enter userspace. Calls to the interrupt will not
be traced because the max_depth has prevented this.
To solve this issue, the ftrace_graph_return() can safely be
moved after the current->curr_ret_stack has been updated.
This way the timestamp for the return callback will reflect
the actual time.
If an interrupt comes in after the curr_ret_stack update and
ftrace_graph_return(), it will be traced. It may look a little
confusing to see it within the other function, but at least
it will not be lost.

The tracepoint sample code was used to teach developers how to
create their own tracepoints. But now the trace_events have been
added as a higher level that is used directly by developers today.
Only the trace_event code should use the tracepoint interface
directly and no new tracepoints should be added.
Besides, the example had a race condition with the use of the
->d_name.name dentry field, as pointed out by Al Viro.
Best just to remove the code so it wont be used by other developers.
