c818cc0630 perf stat: Fix --interval_clear option
Currently we display extra header line, like:

  # perf stat -I 1000 -a --interval-clear
  #           time             counts unit events
         insn per cycle branch-misses of all branches
       2.964917103        3855.349912      cpu-clock (msec)          #    3.855 CPUs utilized
       2.964917103             23,993      context-switches          #    0.006 M/sec
       2.964917103              1,301      cpu-migrations            #    0.329 K/sec
       ...

Fixing the condition and getting proper:

  # perf stat -I 1000 -a --interval-clear
  #           time             counts unit events

a5cfa6217c perf stat: Add event parsing error handling to add_default_attributes
Add missing error handling for parse_events calls in add_default_attributes
functions. The error handler displays error details, like for transactions (-T):

Before:
  $ perf stat -T
  Cannot set up transaction events

After:
  $ perf stat -T
  Cannot set up transaction events
  event syntax error: '..cycles,cpu/cycles-t/,cpu/tx-start/,cpu/el-start/,cpu/cycles-ct/}'

0ce2da1483 perf stat: Display user and system time
Adding the support to read rusage data once the workload is finished and
display the system/user time values:

  $ perf stat --null perf bench sched pipe
  ...

   Performance counter stats for 'perf bench sched pipe':

       5.342599256 seconds time elapsed

       2.544434000 seconds user
       4.549691000 seconds sys

It works only in non -r mode and only for workload target.

So as of now, for workload targets, we display 3 types of timings. The
time we meassure in perf stat from enable to disable+period:

       5.342599256 seconds time elapsed

The time spent in user and system lands, displayed only for workload
session/target:

       2.544434000 seconds user
       4.549691000 seconds sys

Those times are the very same displayed by 'time' tool.  They are
returned by wait4 call via the getrusage struct interface.

Committer notes:

Had to rename some variables to avoid this on older systems such as
centos:6:

  builtin-stat.c: In function 'print_footer':
  builtin-stat.c:1831: warning: declaration of 'stime' shadows a global declaration
  /usr/include/time.h:297: warning: shadowed declaration is here

bc22de9bcd perf stat: Display time in precision based on std deviation
Ingo suggested to display elapsed time for multirun workload (perf stat
-e) with precision based on the precision of the standard deviation.

In his own words:

  > This output is a slightly bit misleading:

  >  Performance counter stats for 'make -j128' (10 runs):
  >      27.988995256 seconds time elapsed                  ( +-  0.39% )

  > The 9 significant digits in the result, while only 1 is valid, suggests accuracy
  > where none exists.

  > It would be better if 'perf stat' would display elapsed time with a precision
  > adjusted to stddev, it should display at most 2 more significant digits than
  > the stddev inaccuracy.

  > I.e. in the above case 0.39% is 0.109, so we only have accuracy for 1 digit, and
  > so we should only display 3:

  >        27.988 seconds time elapsed                       ( +-  0.39% )

Plus a suggestion about the output, which is small enough and connected
with the above change that I merged both changes together.

  > Small output style nit - I think it would be nice if with --repeat the stddev was
  > also displayed in absolute values, besides percentage:
  >
  >       27.988 +- 0.109 seconds time elapsed   ( +- 0.39% )

The output is now:

   Performance counter stats for './perf bench sched pipe' (5 runs):
   SNIP
           13.3667 +- 0.0256 seconds time elapsed  ( +-  0.19% )

     2.002024821        240,750,403      unc_m_clockticks [uncore_imc_1] [uncore_imc_1]

For each print, the PMU name is unconditionally appended to the
counter->name.

Need to check the counter->name first. If the PMU name is already
appended, do nothing.

Committer notes:

Add and use perf_evsel->uniquified_name bool instead of doing the more
expensive strstr(event->name, pmu->name).

30060eaed7 perf stat: Print out hint for mixed PMU group error
Perf doesn't support mixed events from different PMUs (except software
event) in a group. For this case, only "<not counted>" or "<not
supported>" are printed out. There is no hint which guides users to fix
the issue.

Checking the PMU type of events to determine if they are from the same
PMU. There may be false alarm for the checking. E.g. the core PMU has
different PMU type. But it should not happen often.

The false alarm can also be tolerated, because:

- It only happens on error path.
- It just provides a possible solution for the issue.

9dc9a95f03 perf stat: Enable 1ms interval for printing event counters values
Currently print count interval for performance counters values is
limited by 10ms so reading the values at frequencies higher than 100Hz
is restricted by the tool.

This change makes perf stat -I possible on frequencies up to 1KHz and,
to some extent, makes perf stat -I to be on-par with perf record
sampling profiling.

When running perf stat -I for monitoring e.g. PCIe uncore counters and
at the same time profiling some I/O workload by perf record e.g. for
cpu-cycles and context switches, it is then possible to observe
consolidated CPU/OS/IO(Uncore) performance picture for that workload.

Tool overhead warning printed when specifying -v option can be missed
due to screen scrolling in case you have output to the console
so message is moved into help available by running perf stat -h.

It turns out that a NULL pointer is referenced. Here are the
function calls:

  ...
  cmd_stat()
  +---> add_default_attributes()
	+---> parse_events(evsel_list, transaction_attrs, NULL);
	             3rd parameter set to NULL

Function parse_events(xx, xx, struct parse_events_error *err) dives
into a bison generated scanner and creates
parser state information for it first:

   struct parse_events_state parse_state = {
                .list   = LIST_HEAD_INIT(parse_state.list),
                .idx    = evlist->nr_entries,
                .error  = err,   <--- NULL POINTER !!!
                .evlist = evlist,
        };

Now various functions inside the bison scanner are called to end up in
__parse_events_add_pmu(struct parse_events_state *parse_state, ..) with
first parameter being a pointer to above structure definition.

Now the PMU event name is not found (because being executed in a VM) and
this function tries to create an error message with

   asprintf(&parse_state->error.str, ....)

which references a NULL pointer and dumps core.

Fix this by providing a pointer to the necessary error information
instead of NULL. Technically only the else part is needed to avoid the
core dump, just lets be safe...

8c5421c016 perf pmu: Display pmu name when printing unmerged events in stat
To simplify creation of events accross multiple instances of the same
type of PMU stat supports two methods for creating multiple events from
a single event specification:

1. A prefix or glob can be used in the PMU name.
2. Aliases, which are listed immediately after the Kernel PMU events
   by perf list, are used.

When the --no-merge option is passed and these events are displayed
individually the PMU name is lost and it's not possible to see which
count corresponds to which pmu:

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                    67      l3cache/read-miss/
                    67      l3cache/read-miss/
                    63      l3cache/read-miss/
                    60      l3cache/read-miss/

           0.001675706 seconds time elapsed

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                    12      l3cache_read_miss
                    17      l3cache_read_miss
                    10      l3cache_read_miss
                     8      l3cache_read_miss

           0.001661305 seconds time elapsed

This change adds the original pmu name to the event. For dynamic pmu
events the pmu name is restored in the event name:

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                    63      l3cache_0_3/read-miss/
                    74      l3cache_0_1/read-miss/
                    64      l3cache_0_2/read-miss/
                    74      l3cache_0_0/read-miss/

           0.001675706 seconds time elapsed

For alias events the name is added after the event name:

    $ perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null

     Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                    10      l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_3]

                    10      l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_2]
                    17      l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_0]

40c21898ba perf stat: Fix CVS output format for non-supported counters
When printing stats in CSV mode, 'perf stat' appends extra separators
when a counter is not supported:

<not supported>,,L1-dcache-store-misses,mesos/bd442f34-2b4a-47df-b966-9b281f9f56fc,0,100.00,,,,

Which causes a failure when parsing fields. The numbers of separators
should be the same for each line, no matter if the counter is or not
supported.

ab6c79b819 perf stat: Ignore error thread when enabling system-wide --per-thread
If we execute 'perf stat --per-thread' with non-root account (even set
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1 yet), it reports the error:

  jinyao@skl:~$ perf stat --per-thread
  Error:
  You may not have permission to collect system-wide stats.

  Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid,
  which controls use of the performance events system by
  unprivileged users (without CAP_SYS_ADMIN).

  The current value is 2:

    -1: Allow use of (almost) all events by all users
        Ignore mlock limit after perf_event_mlock_kb without CAP_IPC_LOCK
  >= 0: Disallow ftrace function tracepoint by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
        Disallow raw tracepoint access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  >= 1: Disallow CPU event access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  >= 2: Disallow kernel profiling by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN

  To make this setting permanent, edit /etc/sysctl.conf too, e.g.:

          kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1

Perhaps the ptrace rule doesn't allow to trace some processes. But anyway
the global --per-thread mode had better ignore such errors and continue
working on other threads.

This patch will record the index of error thread in perf_evsel__open()
and remove this thread before retrying.

For example (run with non-root, kernel.perf_event_paranoid isn't set):

  jinyao@skl:~$ perf stat --per-thread

f1f8ad52f8 perf stat: Add support to print counts after a period of time
Introduce a new option to print counts after N milliseconds and update
'perf stat' documentation accordingly.

Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat.

  $ perf stat --time 2000 -e cycles -a
  Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

        157,260,423      cycles

        2.003060766 seconds time elapsed

We can print the count deltas after N milliseconds with this new
introduced option. This option is not supported with "-I" option.

In addition, according to Kangliang's patch(19afd10410), the
monitoring overhead for system-wide core event could be very high if the
interval-print parameter was below 100ms, and the limitation value is
10ms.

So the same warning will be displayed when the time is set between 10ms
to 100ms, and the minimal time is limited to 10ms. Users can make a
decision according to their spcific cases.

Committer notes:

This actually stops the workload after the specified time, then prints
the counts.

So I renamed the option to --timeout and updated the documentation to
state that it will not just print the counts after the specified time,
but will really stop the 'perf stat' session and print the counts.

The rename from 'time' to 'timeout' also fixes the build in systems
where 'time' is used by glibc and can't be used as a name of a variable,
such as centos:5 and centos:6.

Changes since v3:
- none.

Changes since v2:
- modify the time check in __run_perf_stat func to keep some consistency
  with the workload case.
- add the warning when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms.
- add the pr_err when the time is set below 10ms.

Changes since v1:
- none.

db06a269ec perf stat: Add support to print counts for fixed times
Introduce a new option to print counts for fixed number of times and
update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly.

Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat.

  $ perf stat -I 1000 --interval-count 2 -e cycles -a
  #           time             counts unit events
           1.002827089         93,884,870      cycles
           2.004231506         56,573,446      cycles

We can just print the counts for several times with this newly
introduced option. The usage of it is a little like 'vmstat', and it
should be used together with "-I" option.

  $ vmstat -n 1 2
  procs ---------memory-------------- --swap- ----io-- -system-- ------cpu---

Changes since v3:
- merge interval_count check and times check to one line.
- fix the wrong indent in stat.h
- use stat_config.times instead of 'times' in cmd_stat function.

Changes since v2:
- none.

Changes since v1:
- change the name of the new option "times-print" to "interval-count".
- keep the new option interval specifically.

1d9f8d1b82 perf stat: Remove --per-thread pid/tid limitation
Currently, if we execute 'perf stat --per-thread' without specifying
pid/tid, perf will return error.

root@skl:/tmp# perf stat --per-thread
The --per-thread option is only available when monitoring via -p -t options.
    -p, --pid <pid>       stat events on existing process id
    -t, --tid <tid>       stat events on existing thread id

This patch removes this limitation. If no pid/tid specified, it returns
all threads (get threads from /proc).

Note that it doesn't support cpu_list yet so if it's a cpu_list case,
then skip.

e0128b30db perf stat: Print per-thread shadow stats
The function perf_stat__print_shadow_stats() is called to print the
shadow stats on a set of static variables.

But the static variables are the limitations to support
per-thread shadow stats.

This patch lets the perf_stat__print_shadow_stats() support
to print the shadow stats from a input parameter 'st'.

It will not directly get value from static variable. Instead,
it now uses runtime_stat_avg() and runtime_stat_n() to get and
compute the values.

35c1980eb3 perf stat: Fall weak group back even for EBADF
It's not possible to run a package event and a per cpu event in the same
group. This is used by some of the power metrics.  They work correctly
when not using a group.

Normally weak groups should handle that, but in this case EBADF is
returned instead of the normal EINVAL.

  $ strace -e perf_event_open ./perf stat -v -e '{cstate_pkg/c2-residency/,msr/tsc/}:W' -a sleep 1
  Using CPUID GenuineIntel-6-3E
  perf_event_open({type=0x17 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 0, -1, PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
  perf_event_open({type=0x17 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 0, -1, 0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
  perf_event_open({type=0x17 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 0, -1, 0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
  perf_event_open({type=0x17 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 0, -1, 0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
  perf_event_open({type=0x17 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 0, -1, 0) = 3
  perf_event_open({type=0x7 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 0, 3, 0) = 4
  perf_event_open({type=0x7 /* PERF_TYPE_??? */, size=PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER5, config=0, ...}, -1, 1, 0, 0) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)

and perf errors out.

Make weak groups trigger a fall back for EBADF too. Then this case works correctly:

  $ perf stat -v -e '{cstate_pkg/c2-residency/,msr/tsc/}:W' -a sleep 1
  Using CPUID GenuineIntel-6-3E

b18f3e3650 perf stat: Support JSON metrics in perf stat
Add generic support for standalone metrics specified in JSON files to
perf stat. A metric is a formula that uses multiple events to compute a
higher level result (e.g. IPC).

Previously metrics were always tied to an event and automatically
enabled with that event. But now change it that we can have standalone
metrics. They are in the same JSON data structure as events, but don't
have an event name.

We also allow to organize the metrics in metric groups, which allows a
short cut to select several related metrics at once.

Add a new -M / --metrics option to perf stat that adds the metrics or
metric groups specified.

Add the core code to manage and parse the metric groups. They are
collected from the JSON data structures into a separate rblist.  When
computing shadow values look for metrics in that list.  Then they are
computed using the existing saved values infrastructure in stat-shadow.c

The actual JSON metrics are in a separate pull request.

5a5dfe4b85 perf tools: Support weak groups in 'perf stat'
Setting up groups can be complicated due to the complicated scheduling
restrictions of different PMUs.

User tools usually don't understand all these restrictions.

Still in many cases it is useful to set up groups and they work most of
the time. However if the group is set up wrong some members will not
report any value because they never get scheduled.

Add a concept of a 'weak group': try to set up a group, but if it's not
schedulable fallback to not using a group. That gives us the best of
both worlds: groups if they work, but still a usable fallback if they
don't.

In theory it would be possible to have more complex fallback strategies
(e.g. try to split the group in half), but the simple fallback of not
using a group seems to work for now.

So far the weak group is only implemented for perf stat, not for record.

Here's an unschedulable group (on IvyBridge with SMT on)

  % perf stat -e '{branches,branch-misses,l1d.replacement,l2_lines_in.all,l2_rqsts.all_code_rd}' -a sleep 1

        73,806,067      branches
         4,848,144      branch-misses             #    6.57% of all branches
        14,754,458      l1d.replacement
        24,905,558      l2_lines_in.all
   <not supported>      l2_rqsts.all_code_rd         <------- will never report anything

With the weak group:

  % perf stat -e '{branches,branch-misses,l1d.replacement,l2_lines_in.all,l2_rqsts.all_code_rd}:W' -a sleep 1

       125,366,055      branches                                                      (80.02%)
         9,208,402      branch-misses             #    7.35% of all branches          (80.01%)
        24,560,249      l1d.replacement                                               (80.00%)

This patch uses waitpid instead to ensure the call waits for the
debuggee application launched by 'perf stat'. This fixes 'perf stat'
when launched from an AppImage:

63ce8449bc perf stat: Only auto-merge events that are PMU aliases
Peter reported that when he explicitely asked for multiple events with
the same name on the command line it got coalesced into just one line,
i.e.:

   # perf stat -e cycles -e cycles -e cycles usleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':

         3,269,652      cycles

       0.000884123 seconds time elapsed

  #

And while there is the --no-merges option to disable that auto-merging,
this is a blunt change in behaviour for such explicit request, so change
the code so that this auto merging is done only when handling the multi
PMU aliases with the same name that introduced this coalescing,
restoring the previous behaviour for the explicit case:

  # perf stat -e cycles -e cycles -e cycles usleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':

         1,472,837      cycles
         1,472,837      cycles
         1,472,837      cycles

82bf311e15 perf stat: Use group read for event groups
Make perf stat use  group read if there  are groups defined. The group
read will get the values for all member of groups within a single
syscall instead of calling read syscall for every event.

We can see considerable less amount of kernel cycles spent on single
group read, than reading each event separately, like for following perf
stat command:

  # perf stat -e {cycles,instructions} -I 10 -a sleep 1

Monitored with "perf stat -r 5 -e '{cycles:u,cycles:k}'"

Before:

        24,325,676      cycles:u
       297,040,775      cycles:k

       1.038554134 seconds time elapsed

After:
        25,034,418      cycles:u
       158,256,395      cycles:k

       1.036864497 seconds time elapsed

daefd0bc0b perf stat: Add support to measure SMI cost
Implementing a new --smi-cost mode in perf stat to measure SMI cost.

During the measurement, the /sys/device/cpu/freeze_on_smi will be set.

The measurement can be done with one counter (unhalted core cycles), and
two free running MSR counters (IA32_APERF and SMI_COUNT).

In practice, the percentages of SMI core cycles should be more useful
than absolute value. So the output will be the percentage of SMI core
cycles and SMI#. metric_only will be set by default.

SMI cycles% = (aperf - unhalted core cycles) / aperf

Here is an example output.

 Performance counter stats for 'sudo echo ':

SMI cycles%          SMI#
    0.1%              1

       0.010858678 seconds time elapsed

Users who wants to get the actual value can apply additional
--no-metric-only.
