Namhyung Kim 9b4525fd08 perf tools: Merge deferred user callchains
Save samples with deferred callchains in a separate list and deliver
them after merging the user callchains.  If users don't want to merge
they can set tool->merge_deferred_callchains to false to prevent the
behavior.

With previous result, now perf script will show the merged callchains.

The old output can be get using --no-merge-callchain option.
Also perf report can get the user callchain entry at the end.

Ian Rogers 754187ad73 perf build: Remove NO_AUXTRACE build option
The NO_AUXTRACE build option was used when the __get_cpuid feature
test failed or if it was provided on the command line. The option no
longer avoids a dependency on a library and so having the option is
just adding complexity to the code base. Remove the option
CONFIG_AUXTRACE from Build files and HAVE_AUXTRACE_SUPPORT by assuming
it is always defined.

Ian Rogers b71f46a6a7 perf stat: Remove hard coded shadow metrics
Now that the metrics are encoded in common json the hard coded
printing means the metrics are shown twice. Remove the hard coded
version.

This means that when specifying events, and those events correspond to
a hard coded metric, the metric will no longer be displayed. The
metric will be displayed if the metric is requested. Due to the adhoc
printing in the previous approach it was often found frustrating, the
new approach avoids this.

The default perf stat output on an alderlake now looks like:
```
$ perf stat -a -- sleep 1

Ian Rogers 3622990efa perf script: Change metric format to use json metrics
The metric format option isn't properly supported. This change
improves that by making the sample events update the counts of an
evsel, where the shadow metric code expects to read the values.  To
support printing metrics, metrics need to be found. This is done on
the first attempt to print a metric. Every metric is parsed and then
the evsels in the metric's evlist compared to those in perf script
using the perf_event_attr type and config. If the metric matches then
it is added for printing. As an event in the perf script's evlist may
have >1 metric id, or different leader for aggregation, the first
metric matched will be displayed in those cases.

An example use is:
```
$ perf record -a -e '{instructions,cpu-cycles}:S' -a -- sleep 1
$ perf script -F period,metric
...
     867817
         metric:    0.30  insn per cycle
     125394
         metric:    0.04  insn per cycle
     313516
         metric:    0.11  insn per cycle
         metric:    1.00  insn per cycle
```

Getting context for what a tool is doing, such as the perf_inject
instance, using container_of the tool is a common pattern in the
code. This isn't possible event_op2, event_op3 and event_op4 callbacks
as the tool isn't passed. Add the argument and then fix function
signatures to match. As tools maybe reading a tool from somewhere
else, change that code to use the passed in tool.

Ian Rogers bbb99668b5 perf capstone: Move capstone functionality into its own file
Capstone disassembly support was split between disasm.c and
print_insn.c. Move support out of these files into capstone.[ch] and
remove include capstone/capstone.h from those files. As disassembly
routines can fail, make failure the only option without
HAVE_LIBCAPSTONE_SUPPORT. For simplicity's sake, duplicate the
read_symbol utility function.

The intent with moving capstone support into a single file is that
dynamic support, using dlopen for libcapstone, can be added in later
patches. This can potentially always succeed or fail, so relying on
ifdefs isn't sufficient. Using dlopen is a useful option to minimize
the perf tools dependencies and potentially size.

Athira Rajeev a0dfb18f7d perf script: Enable to present DTL entries

perf_sample__fprintf_synth() for displaying PERF_TYPE_SYNTH
type events.

   if (attr->type == PERF_TYPE_SYNTH && PRINT_FIELD(SYNTH))
   	perf_sample__fprintf_synth(sample, evsel, fp);

perf_sample__fprintf_synth() process the sample depending on the value
in evsel->core.attr.config. Introduce perf_sample__fprintf_synth_vpadtl()
and invoke this for PERF_SYNTH_POWERPC_VPA_DTL

The rblist of metric_event that then have a list of associated
metric_expr is moved out of the stat_config and into the evlist. This
is done as part of refactoring things for python, having the state
split in two places complicates that implementation. The evlist is
doing the harder work of enabling and disabling events, the metrics
are needed to compute a value and it doesn't seem unreasonable to hang
them from the evlist.

Thomas Falcon 74fb903b21 perf script: Fix output type for dynamically allocated core PMU's
This patch was originally posted here:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241213215421.661139-1-thomas.falcon@intel.com/

I have rebased on top of Arnaldo's patch here:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/Z2XCi3PgstSrV0SE@x1/

The original commit message:
"
perf script output may show different fields on different core PMU's
that exist on heterogeneous platforms. For example,

perf record -e "{cpu_core/mem-loads-aux/,cpu_core/event=0xcd,\
umask=0x01,ldlat=3,name=MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.LOAD_LATENCY/}:upp"\
-c10000 -W -d -a -- sleep 1

perf script:

chromium-browse   46572 [002] 544966.882384:      10000 	cpu_core/MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.LOAD_LATENCY/: 7ffdf1391b0c     10268100142 \
 |OP LOAD|LVL L1 hit|SNP None|TLB L1 or L2 hit|LCK No|BLK    N/A    5   7    0   7fad7c47425d [unknown] (/usr/lib64/libglib-2.0.so.0.8000.3)

perf record -e cpu_atom/event=0xd0,umask=0x05,ldlat=3,\
name=MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.LOAD_LATENCY/upp -c10000 -W -d -a -- sleep 1

perf script:

gnome-control-c  534224 [023] 544951.816227:      10000 cpu_atom/MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.LOAD_LATENCY/:   7f0aaaa0aae0  [unknown] (/usr/lib64/libglib-2.0.so.0.8000.3)

Some fields, such as data_src, are not included by default.

The cause is that while one PMU may be assigned a type such as
PERF_TYPE_RAW, other core PMU's are dynamically allocated at boot time.
If this value does not match an existing PERF_TYPE_X value,
output_type(perf_event_attr.type) will return OUTPUT_TYPE_OTHER.

Instead search for a core PMU with a matching perf_event_attr type
and, if one is found, return PERF_TYPE_RAW to match output of other
core PMU's.

Ian Rogers dc6d2bc2d8 perf sample: Make user_regs and intr_regs optional
The struct dump_regs contains 512 bytes of cache_regs, meaning the two
values in perf_sample contribute 1088 bytes of its total 1384 bytes
size. Initializing this much memory has a cost reported by Tavian
Barnes <tavianator@tavianator.com> as about 2.5% when running `perf
script --itrace=i0`:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/d841b97b3ad2ca8bcab07e4293375fb7c32dfce7.1736618095.git.tavianator@tavianator.com/

Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> replied that the zero
initialization was necessary and couldn't simply be removed.

This patch aims to strike a middle ground of still zeroing the
perf_sample, but removing 79% of its size by make user_regs and
intr_regs optional pointers to zalloc-ed memory. To support the
allocation accessors are created for user_regs and intr_regs. To
support correct cleanup perf_sample__init and perf_sample__exit
functions are created and added throughout the code base.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo efff5add20 perf script: Cache the output type
Right now every time we need to figure out the type of an evsel for
output purposes we do a quick sequence of ifs, but there are new cases
where there is a need to do more complex iterations over multiple data
structures, sso allow for caching this operation on a hole of 'struct
evsel'.

This should really be done on the evsel->priv area that 'perf script'
sets up, but more work is needed to make sure that it is allocated when
we need it, right now it is only used for conditionally, add some
comments so that we move this to that 'perf script' specific area when
the conditions are in place for that.

Yicong Yang 35de42cdfb perf build: Include libtraceevent headers directly indicated by pkg-config
Currently the libtraceevent's found by pkg-config, which give the
include path as:

  [root@localhost tmp]# pkg-config --cflags libtraceevent
  -I/usr/local/include/traceevent

So we should include the libtraceevent headers directly without
"traceevent/" prefix. Update all the users.

Kan Liang edf3ce0ed3 perf env: Find correct branch counter info on hybrid
No event is printed in the "Branch Counter" column on hybrid machines.

For example,

  $ perf record -e "{cpu_core/branch-instructions/pp,cpu_core/branches/}:S" -j any,counter
  $ perf report --total-cycles

  # Branch counter abbr list:
  # cpu_core/branch-instructions/pp = A
  # cpu_core/branches/ = B
  # '-' No event occurs
  # '+' Event occurrences may be lost due to branch counter saturated
  #
  # Sampled Cycles%  Sampled Cycles  Avg Cycles%  Avg Cycles  Branch Counter
  # ...............  ..............  ...........  ..........  ..............
            44.54%          727.1K        0.00%           1   |+   |+   |
            36.31%          592.7K        0.00%           2   |+   |+   |
            17.83%          291.1K        0.00%           1   |+   |+   |

The branch counter information (br_cntr_width and br_cntr_nr) in the
perf_env is retrieved from the CPU_PMU_CAPS. However, the CPU_PMU_CAPS
is not available on hybrid machines. Without the width information, the
number of occurrences of an event cannot be calculated.

For a hybrid machine, the caps information should be retrieved from the
PMU_CAPS, and stored in the perf_env->pmu_caps.

Add a perf_env__find_br_cntr_info() to return the correct branch counter
information from the corresponding fields.

Committer notes:

While testing I couldn't s ee those "Branch counter" columns enabled by
pressing 'B' on the TUI, after reporting it to the list Kan explained
the situation:

<quote Kan Liang>
For a hybrid client, the "Branch Counter" feature is only supported
starting from the just released Lunar Lake. Perf falls back to only
"ANY" on your Raptor Lake.

The "The branch counter is not available" message is expected.

Here is the 'perf evlist' result from my Lunar Lake machine,

  # perf evlist -v
  cpu_core/branch-instructions/pp: type: 4 (cpu_core), size: 136, config: 0xc4 (branch-instructions), { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|READ|PERIOD|BRANCH_STACK|IDENTIFIER, read_format: ID|GROUP|LOST, disabled: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, precise_ip: 2, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, branch_sample_type: ANY|COUNTERS

Andi Kleen bf0db8c759 perf script: Minimize "not reaching sample" for '-F +brstackinsn'
In some situations 'perf script -F +brstackinsn' sees a lot of "not
reaching sample" messages.

This happens when the last LBR block before the sample contains a branch
that is not in the LBR, and the instruction dumping stops.

  $ perf record -b  emacs -Q --batch '()'
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.396 MB perf.data (443 samples) ]
  $ perf script -F +brstackinsn
  ...
          00007f0ab2d171a4        insn: 41 0f 94 c0
          00007f0ab2d171a8        insn: 83 fa 01
          00007f0ab2d171ab        insn: 74 d3                     # PRED 6 cycles [313] 1.00 IPC
          00007f0ab2d17180        insn: 45 84 c0
          00007f0ab2d17183        insn: 74 28
          ... not reaching sample ...

  $ perf script -F +brstackinsn | grep -c reach
  136
  $

This is a problem for further analysis that wants to see the full code
upto the sample.

There are two common cases where the message is bogus:

- The LBR only logs taken branches, but the branch might be a
  conditional branch that is not taken (that is the most common case
  actually)

- The LBR sampling uses a filter ignoring some branches, but the perf
  script check checks for all branches.

This patch fixes these two conditions, by only checking for conditional
branches, as well as checking the perf_event_attr's branch filter
attributes.

For the test case above it fixes all the messages:

  $ ./perf script -F +brstackinsn | grep -c reach
  0

Note that there are still conditions when the message is hit --
sometimes there can be a unconditional branch that misses the LBR update
before the sample -- but they are much more rare now.

Adrian Hunter 218c200f67 perf script: Consolidate capstone print functions
Consolidate capstone print functions, to reduce duplication. Amend call
sites to use a file pointer for output, which is consistent with most
perf tools print functions. Add print_opts with an option to print also
the hex value of a resolved symbol+offset.

Changbin Du 8f0ec15ff6 perf: util: use capstone disasm engine to show assembly instructions
Currently, the instructions of samples are shown as raw hex strings
which are hard to read. x86 has a special option '--xed' to disassemble
the hex string via intel XED tool.

Here we use capstone as our disassembler engine to give more friendly
instructions. We select libcapstone because capstone can provide more
insn details. Perf will fallback to raw instructions if libcapstone is
not available.

The advantages compared to XED tool:
 * Support arm, arm64, x86-32, x86_64 (more could be supported),
   xed only for x86_64.
 * Immediate address operands are shown as symbol+offs.
