Since for cpu_core or cpu_atom, they have different topdown events
groups.
For cpu_core, --topdown equals to:
"{slots,cpu_core/topdown-retiring/,cpu_core/topdown-bad-spec/,
cpu_core/topdown-fe-bound/,cpu_core/topdown-be-bound/,
cpu_core/topdown-heavy-ops/,cpu_core/topdown-br-mispredict/,
cpu_core/topdown-fetch-lat/,cpu_core/topdown-mem-bound/}"
For cpu_atom, --topdown equals to:
"{cpu_atom/topdown-retiring/,cpu_atom/topdown-bad-spec/,
cpu_atom/topdown-fe-bound/,cpu_atom/topdown-be-bound/}"
To simplify the implementation, on hybrid, --topdown is used
together with --cputype. If without --cputype, it uses cpu_core
topdown events by default.

One metric such as 'Kernel_Utilization' may be from different PMUs and
consists of different events.
For core,
Kernel_Utilization = cpu_clk_unhalted.thread:k / cpu_clk_unhalted.thread
For atom,
Kernel_Utilization = cpu_clk_unhalted.core:k / cpu_clk_unhalted.core
The metric group string for core is:
'{cpu_clk_unhalted.thread/metric-id=cpu_clk_unhalted.thread:k/k,cpu_clk_unhalted.thread/metric-id=cpu_clk_unhalted.thread/}:W'
It's internally expanded to:
'{cpu_clk_unhalted.thread_p/metric-id=cpu_clk_unhalted.thread_p:k/k,cpu_clk_unhalted.thread/metric-id=cpu_clk_unhalted.thread/}:W#cpu_core'
The metric group string for atom is:
'{cpu_clk_unhalted.core/metric-id=cpu_clk_unhalted.core:k/k,cpu_clk_unhalted.core/metric-id=cpu_clk_unhalted.core/}:W'
It's internally expanded to:
'{cpu_clk_unhalted.core/metric-id=cpu_clk_unhalted.core:k/k,cpu_clk_unhalted.core/metric-id=cpu_clk_unhalted.core/}:W#cpu_atom'
That means the group "{cpu_clk_unhalted.thread:k,cpu_clk_unhalted.thread}:W"
is from cpu_core PMU and the group "{cpu_clk_unhalted.core:k,cpu_clk_unhalted.core}"
is from cpu_atom PMU. And then next, check if the events in the group are
valid on that PMU. If one event is not valid on that PMU, the associated
group would be removed internally.
In this example, cpu_clk_unhalted.thread is valid on cpu_core and
cpu_clk_unhalted.core is valid on cpu_atom. So the checks for these two
groups are passed.

# ./perf stat -M Kernel_Utilization -a sleep 1

It bothered me that during benchmarking using 'perf stat' (to collect
for example CPU cache events) I could not simultaneously retrieve the
times spend in user or kernel mode in a machine readable format.
When running 'perf stat' the output for humans contains the times
reported by rusage and wait4.
$ perf stat -e cache-misses:u -- true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
4,206 cache-misses:u
0.001113619 seconds time elapsed
0.001175000 seconds user
0.000000000 seconds sys
But 'perf stat's machine-readable format does not provide this information.
$ perf stat -x, -e cache-misses:u -- true
4282,,cache-misses:u,492859,100.00,,
I found no way to retrieve this information using the available events
while using machine-readable output.
This patch adds two new tool internal events 'user_time' and
'system_time', similarly to the already present 'duration_time' event.
Both events use the already collected rusage information obtained by
wait4 and tracked in the global ru_stats.
Examples presenting cache-misses and rusage information in both human
and machine-readable form:
$ perf stat -e duration_time,user_time,system_time,cache-misses -- grep -q -r duration_time .

Perf numa bench test fails with error:
Testcase:
./perf bench numa mem -p 2 -t 1 -P 1024 -C 0,8 -M 1,0 -s 20 -zZq --thp 1 --no-data_rand_walk
Failure snippet:
<<>>
Running 'numa/mem' benchmark:
# Running main, "perf bench numa numa-mem -p 2 -t 1 -P 1024 -C 0,8 -M 1,0 -s 20 -zZq --thp 1 --no-data_rand_walk"
perf: bench/numa.c:333: bind_to_cpumask: Assertion `!(ret)' failed.
<<>>
The Testcases uses CPU's 0 and 8. In function "parse_setup_cpu_list",
There is check to see if cpu number is greater than max cpu's possible
in the system ie via "if (bind_cpu_0 >= g->p.nr_cpus || bind_cpu_1 >=
g->p.nr_cpus) {".
But it could happen that system has say 48 CPU's, but only number of
online CPU's is 0-7. Other CPU's are offlined. Since "g->p.nr_cpus" is
48, so function will go ahead and set bit for CPU 8 also in cpumask (
td->bind_cpumask).
bind_to_cpumask function is called to set affinity using
sched_setaffinity and the cpumask. Since the CPU8 is not present, set
affinity will fail here with EINVAL.
Fix this issue by adding a check to make sure that, CPU's provided in
the input argument values are online before proceeding further and skip
the test. For this, include new helper function "is_cpu_online" in
"tools/perf/util/header.c".
Since "BIT(x)" definition will get included from header.h, remove
that from bench/numa.c

Fix incorrect debug message:
Attempting to add event pmu 'intel_pt' with '' that may result in
non-fatal errors
which always appears with perf record -vv and intel_pt e.g.
perf record -vv -e intel_pt//u uname
The message is incorrect because there will never be non-fatal errors.
Suppress the message if the PMU is 'selectable' i.e. meant to be
selected directly as an event.

Commit Fixes: b9f6fbb3b2 ("perf arm64: Inject missing frames when
using 'perf record --call-graph=fp'") intended to add a 'best effort'
DWARF unwind that improved the frame pointer stack in most scenarios.
It's expected that the unwind will fail sometimes, but this shouldn't be
reported as an error. It only works when the return address can be
determined from the contents of the link register alone.
Fix the error shown when the unwinder requires extra registers by adding
a new flag that suppresses error messages. This flag is not set in the
normal --call-graph=dwarf unwind mode so that behavior is not changed.

The clang compiler complains about some options even without a source
file being available, while others require one, so use the simple
tools/build/feature/test-hello.c file.
Then check for the "is not supported" string in its output, in addition
to the "unknown argument" already being looked for.
This was noticed when building with clang-13 where -ffat-lto-objects
isn't supported and since we were looking just for "unknown argument"
and not providing a source code to clang, was mistakenly assumed as
being available and not being filtered to set of command line options
provided to clang, leading to a build failure.

corresponding software event handler completes execution. These
include:
o Interrupts, including NMI and SMI, including the interrupt

o Faults, exceptions including the fault vector.
- Page faults additionally include the page fault address,
when in context.
o Event handler returns, including IRET and RSM.
o VM exits and VM entries.¹
- VM exits include the values written to the “exit reason”

o TSX aborts, including the abort status returned for the RTM

o Shutdown.

Improve the error message returned on failed perf_event_open() on AMD
systems when using IBS (Instruction-Based Sampling).
Output of executing 'perf record -e ibs_op// true' as a non root user
BEFORE this patch (perf will add the 'u' modifier at the end to exclude
kernel/hypervisor sampling):
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument)for event (ibs_op//u).
/bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.
Output after:
AMD IBS can't exclude kernel events. Try running at a higher privilege level.
Output of executing 'sudo perf record -e ibs_op// true' BEFORE this patch:
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (ibs_op//).
/bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.
Output after:
Error:
Invalid event (ibs_op//) in per-thread mode, enable system wide with '-a'.
Folowing the suggestion:
$ sudo perf record -a -e ibs_op// true
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.664 MB perf.data (194 samples) ]

The AMD IBS error message enhancements will use these, but we're not
using evsel__open_strerror() in the python binding so far.
