If any member in a group has a different cpu mask than the other
members, the current perf stat disables group. when the perf metrics
topdown events are part of the group, the below <not supported> error
will be triggered.

The perf metrics topdown events must always be grouped with a slots
event as leader.
Factor out evsel__remove_from_group() to only remove the regular events
from the group.
Remove evsel__must_be_in_group(), since no one use it anymore.
With the patch, the topdown events aren't broken from the group for the
splitting.

The 'perf record' and 'perf stat' commands have supported the option
'-C/--cpus' to count or collect only on the list of CPUs provided. This
option needs to be supported for hybrid as well.
For hybrid support, it needs to check that the cpu list are available
on hybrid PMU. One example for AlderLake, cpu0-7 is 'cpu_core', cpu8-11
is 'cpu_atom'.
Before:
# perf stat -e cpu_core/cycles/ -C11 -- sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 11':
<not supported> cpu_core/cycles/
1.006179431 seconds time elapsed
The 'perf stat' command silently returned "<not supported>" without any
helpful information. It should error out pointing out that that cpu11
was not 'cpu_core'.
After:
# perf stat -e cpu_core/cycles/ -C11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: 11 isn't a 'cpu_core', please use a CPU list in the 'cpu_core' range (0-7)
failed to use cpu list 11
We also need to support the events without pmu prefix specified.
# perf stat -e cycles -C11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: 11 isn't a 'cpu_core', please use a CPU list in the 'cpu_core' range (0-7)
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 11':
1,067,373 cpu_atom/cycles/
1.005544738 seconds time elapsed
The perf tool creates two cycles events automatically, cpu_core/cycles/ and
cpu_atom/cycles/. It checks that cpu11 is not 'cpu_core', then shows a warning
for cpu_core/cycles/ and only count the cpu_atom/cycles/.
If part of cpus are 'cpu_core' and part of cpus are 'cpu_atom', for example,
# perf stat -e cycles -C0,11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: use 0 in 'cpu_core' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.
WARNING: use 11 in 'cpu_atom' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.

1,914,704 cpu_core/cycles/
2,036,983 cpu_atom/cycles/
1.005815641 seconds time elapsed
It now automatically selects cpu0 for cpu_core/cycles/, selects cpu11 for
cpu_atom/cycles/, and output with some warnings.
Some more complex examples,
# perf stat -e cycles,instructions -C0,11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: use 0 in 'cpu_core' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.

The user may count or collect only on a cpu list via '-C/--cpus' option.
Previously cpus for an evsel were retrieved from PMU's sysfs. But if the
target cpu list is defined, the retrieved cpus are not kept and the
target cpu list is used instead.
But for hybrid system, we can't directly use target cpu list. The cpu
list may not be available on hybrid pmu (e.g. cpu_core or cpu_atom). So
we should not set the 'has_user_cpus' flag for hybrid system.
The difficulity is that we can't call perf_pmu__has_hybrid() in evlist.c
to check hybrid system otherwise 'perf test python' would be failed
(undefined symbol for perf_pmu__has_hybrid). If we add pmu.c to
python-ext-sources, too many symbol dependencies are hard to resolve.
We use an alternative method by using a new 'hybrid' flag in target
for hybrid system checking.

Move evsel::leader to perf_evsel::leader, so we can move the group
interface to libperf.
Also add several evsel helpers to ease up the transition:
struct evsel *evsel__leader(struct evsel *evsel);
- get leader evsel
bool evsel__has_leader(struct evsel *evsel, struct evsel *leader);
- true if evsel has leader as leader
bool evsel__is_leader(struct evsel *evsel);
- true if evsel is itw own leader
void evsel__set_leader(struct evsel *evsel, struct evsel *leader);
- set leader for evsel
Committer notes:
Fix this when building with 'make BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1'

- if (evsel->leader->core.nr_members > 1) {
+ if (evsel->core.leader->nr_members > 1) {

I got a segfault when using -r option with event groups. The option
makes it run the workload multiple times and it will reuse the evlist
and evsel for each run.
While most of resources are allocated and freed properly, the id hash
in the evlist was not and it resulted in the bug. You can see it with
the address sanitizer like below:
$ perf stat -r 100 -e '{cycles,instructions}' true

Commit da231338ec ("perf record: Use an eventfd to wakeup when
done") uses eventfd() to solve a rare race where the setting and
checking of 'done' which add done_fd to pollfd. When draining buffer,
revents of done_fd is 0 and evlist__filter_pollfd function returns a
non-zero value. As a result, perf record does not stop profiling.
The following simple scenarios can trigger this condition:
# sleep 10 &
# perf record -p $!
After the sleep process exits, perf record should stop profiling and exit.
However, perf record keeps running.
If pollfd revents contains only POLLERR or POLLHUP, perf record
indicates that buffer is draining and need to stop profiling. Use
fdarray_flag__nonfilterable() to set done eventfd to nonfilterable
objects, so that evlist__filter_pollfd() does not filter and check done
eventfd.

The Topdown Microarchitecture Analysis (TMA) Method is a structured
analysis methodology to identify critical performance bottlenecks in
out-of-order processors. From the Ice Lake and later platforms, the
Topdown information can be retrieved from the dedicated "metrics"
register, which isn't impacted by other events. Also, the Topdown
metrics support both per thread/process and per core measuring. Adding
Topdown metrics events as default events can enrich the default
measuring information, and would not cost any extra multiplexing.
Introduce arch_evlist__add_default_attrs() to allow architecture
specific default events. Add the Topdown metrics events in the X86
specific arch_evlist__add_default_attrs(). Other architectures can add
their own default events later separately.

Add a new 'evlist' control command to display all the evlist events.
When it is received, perf will scan and print current evlist into perf
record terminal.
The interface string for control file is:
evlist [-v|-g|-F]
The syntax follows perf evlist command:
-F Show just the sample frequency used for each event.
-v Show all fields.
-g Show event group information.
Example session:
terminal 1:
# mkfifo control ack
# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -e '{cycles,instructions}'
terminal 2:
# echo evlist > control
terminal 1:
cycles
instructions
dummy:HG
terminal 2:
# echo 'evlist -v' > control
terminal 1:
cycles: size: 120, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: \
IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, freq: 1, \
sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1
instructions: size: 120, config: 0x1, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, \
sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, inherit: 1, freq: 1, \
sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1
dummy:HG: type: 1, size: 120, config: 0x9, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, \
sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD, read_format: ID, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, \
comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1, ksymbol: 1, \
bpf_event: 1
terminal 2:
# echo 'evlist -g' > control
terminal 1:
{cycles,instructions}
dummy:HG
terminal 2:
# echo 'evlist -F' > control
terminal 1:
cycles: sample_freq=4000
instructions: sample_freq=4000
dummy:HG: sample_freq=4000
This new evlist command is handy to get real event names when
wildcards are used.
Adding evsel_fprintf.c object to python/perf.so build, because
it's now evlist.c dependency.
Adding PYTHON_PERF define for python/perf.so compilation, so we
can use it to compile in only evsel__fprintf from evsel_fprintf.c
object.

Adding new control events to enable/disable specific event.
The interface string for control file are:
'enable <EVENT NAME>'
'disable <EVENT NAME>'
when received the command, perf will scan the current evlist
for <EVENT NAME> and if found it's enabled/disabled.
Example session:
terminal 1:
# mkfifo control ack perf.pipe
# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -D -1 --no-buffering -e 'sched:*' -o - > perf.pipe
terminal 2:
# cat perf.pipe | perf --no-pager script -i -
terminal 1:
Events disabled
NOTE Above message will show only after read side of the pipe ('>')
is started on 'terminal 2'. The 'terminal 1's bash does not execute
perf before that, hence the delyaed perf record message.
terminal 3:
# echo 'enable sched:sched_process_fork' > control
terminal 1:

terminal 2:
bash 33349 [034] 149587.674295: sched:sched_process_fork: comm=bash pid=33349 child_comm=bash child_pid=34056

terminal 2:
bash 33349 [034] 149632.228023: sched:sched_process_fork: comm=bash pid=33349 child_comm=bash child_pid=34059

Committer testing:
If I use 'sched:*' and then enable all events, I can't get 'perf record'
to react to further commands, so I tested it with:
[root@five ~]# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -D -1 --no-buffering -e 'sched:sched_process_*' -o - > perf.pipe
Events disabled
Events enabled
Events disabled
And then it works as expected, so we need to fix this pre-existing
problem.
Another issue, we need to check if a event is already enabled or
disabled and change the message to be clearer, i.e.:
[root@five ~]# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -D -1 --no-buffering -e 'sched:sched_process_*' -o - > perf.pipe
Events disabled
If we receive a 'disable' command, then it should say:
[root@five ~]# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -D -1 --no-buffering -e 'sched:sched_process_*' -o - > perf.pipe
Events disabled
Events already disabled
