With the Sebastian's change of handling num array argument (of raw
syscall enter), the script still failed to work like this:
$ perf record -e raw_syscalls:* sleep 1
$ perf script -g python
$ perf script -s perf-script.py
...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "perf-script.py", line 42, in raw_syscalls__sys_enter
(id, args),
TypeError: %u format: a number is required, not list
Fatal Python error: problem in Python trace event handler
Aborted (core dumped)
This is because the generated script tries to print the array arg as
unsigned integer (%u). Since the python seems to convert arguments to
strings by default, just using %s solved the problem for me.

Coming in v3.16, trace events will be able to save bitmasks in raw
format in the ring buffer and output it with the __get_bitmask() macro.
In order for userspace tools to parse this, it must be able to handle
the __get_bitmask() call and be able to convert the data that's in
the ring buffer into a nice bitmask format. The output is similar to
what the kernel uses to print bitmasks, with a comma separator every
4 bytes (8 characters).
This allows for cpumasks to also be saved efficiently.
The first user is the thermal:thermal_power_limit event which has the
following output:
thermal_power_limit: cpus=0000000f freq=1900000 cdev_state=0 power=5252

The traceevent plugins allows developers to have their events print out
information that is more advanced than what can be achieved by the
trace event format files.
As these plugins are used on the userspace side of the tracing tools, it
is only logical that the tools should be able to produce different types
of output for the events. The types of events still need to be defined by
the plugins thus we need a way to pass information from the tool to the
plugin to specify what type of information to be shown.
Not only does the information need to be passed by the tool to plugin, but
the plugin also requires a way to notify the tool of what options it can
provide.
This builds the plugin option infrastructure that is taken from trace-cmd
that is used to allow plugins to produce different output based on the
options specified by the tool.

perf tools like 'perf report' can aggregate samples by comm strings,
which generally works. However, there are other potential use-cases.
For example, to pair up 'calls' with 'returns' accurately (from branch
events like Intel BTS) it is necessary to identify whether the process
has exec'd. Although a comm event is generated when an 'exec' happens
it is also generated whenever the comm string is changed on a whim
(e.g. by prctl PR_SET_NAME). This patch adds a flag to the comm event
to differentiate one case from the other.
In order to determine whether the kernel supports the new flag, a
selection bit named 'exec' is added to struct perf_event_attr. The
bit does nothing but will cause perf_event_open() to fail if the bit
is set on kernels that do not have it defined.

copy_insn() fails with -EIO if ->readpage == NULL, but this error
is not propagated unless uprobe_register() path finds ->mm which
already mmaps this file. In this case (say) "perf record" does not
actually install the probe, but the user can't know about this.
Move this check into uprobe_register() so that this problem can be
detected earlier and reported to user.
Note: this is still not perfect,
- copy_insn() and arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() should be called
by uprobe_register() but this is not simple, we need vm_file
for read_mapping_page() (although perhaps we can pass NULL),
and we need ->mm for is_64bit_mm() (although this logic is
broken anyway).
- uprobe_register() should be called by create_trace_uprobe(),
not by probe_event_enable(), so that an error can be detected
at "perf probe -x" time. This also needs more changes in the
core uprobe code, uprobe register/unregister interface was
poorly designed from the very beginning.

__perf_event_exit_task() can actually free the event.
And because list addition/deletion is guarded by both ctx->mutex and
ctx->lock, holding ctx->mutex is sufficient for reading the list, so we
don't actually need the rcu list iteration.

the field.
This fixes that bug by handling success code correctly in

are correctly checking the return code.
This bug was introduced by following commit. But another hidden
erroneous error handling has been there previously (-ENOMEM case).

Currently 'make help' message has such hint:
use "make prefix=<path> <install target>" to install to a particular
path like make prefix=/usr/local install install-doc
But this is misleading, when I specify "prefix=/usr/local", it has got no
respect at all.
This is because that, "DESTDIR" is considered first. In this case, "DESTDIR"
has an empty value, so "prefix" is honored. However, "prefix" is unconditionally
assigned to $HOME, regardless of what it is set to from command line. So our
"prefix" setting got no respect and the actual destination falls back to $HOME.

After output/sort fields refactoring, it's expensive
to check the elide bool in its current location inside
the 'struct sort_entry'.
The perf_hpp__should_skip function gets highly noticable in
workloads with high number of output/sort fields, like for:
$ perf report -i perf-test.data -F overhead,sample,period,comm,pid,dso,symbol,cpu --stdio
Performance report:
9.70% perf [.] perf_hpp__should_skip
Moving the elide bool into the 'struct perf_hpp_fmt', which
makes the perf_hpp__should_skip just single struct read.
Got speedup of around 22% for my test perf.data workload.
The change should not harm any other workload types.
Performance counter stats for (10 runs):
before:
358,319,732,626 cycles ( +- 0.55% )
467,129,581,515 instructions # 1.30 insns per cycle ( +- 0.00% )

There's no need to setup elide of sort_dso sort entry again
with symbol_conf.dso_list list.
The only difference were list names of memory mode data,
which does not make much sense to me.

When the audit-libs devel package is not found at build time we disable
the 'trace' command, as we are not able to map syscall numbers to
strings, but then the message the user is presented is cryptic:
[root@zoo linux]# trace ls
perf: 'ls' is not a perf-command. See 'perf --help'.
Fix it by presenting a more helpful message:
[root@zoo linux]# trace l
trace command not available: missing audit-libs devel package at build time.

tmpfs is widely used but as Denys reports shmem_aops doesn't have
->readpage() and thus you can't probe a binary on this filesystem.
As Hugh suggested we can use shmem_read_mapping_page() in this case,
just we need to check shmem_mapping() if ->readpage == NULL.

copy_insn() fails with -EIO if ->readpage == NULL, but this error
is not propagated unless uprobe_register() path finds ->mm which
already mmaps this file. In this case (say) "perf record" does not
actually install the probe, but the user can't know about this.
Move this check into uprobe_register() so that this problem can be
detected earlier and reported to user.
Note: this is still not perfect,
- copy_insn() and arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() should be called
by uprobe_register() but this is not simple, we need vm_file
for read_mapping_page() (although perhaps we can pass NULL),
and we need ->mm for is_64bit_mm() (although this logic is
broken anyway).
- uprobe_register() should be called by create_trace_uprobe(),
not by probe_event_enable(), so that an error can be detected
at "perf probe -x" time. This also needs more changes in the
core uprobe code, uprobe register/unregister interface was
poorly designed from the very beginning.

Pull powerpc fix from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"Here's just one trivial patch to wire up sys_renameat2 which I seem to
have completely missed so far.
(My test build scripts fwd me warnings but miss the ones generated for
missing syscalls)"

powerpc: Wire renameat2() syscall
Pull MIPS fixes from Ralf Baechle:
"A fair number of fixes across the field. Nothing terribly
complicated; the one liners in below changelog should be fairly
descriptive.
Noteworthy is the SB1 change which the result of changes to binutils
resulting in one big gas warning for most files being assembled as
well as the asid_cache and branch emulation fixes which fix corruption
or possible uninteded behaviour of kernel or application code. The
remainder of fixes are more platforms or subsystem specific"
* 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus:
MIPS: R46000: Fix Micro-assembler field overflow for R4600 V2
MIPS: ptrace: Avoid smp_processor_id() in preemptible code
MIPS: Lemote 2F: cs5536: mfgpt: use raw locks
MIPS: SB1: Fix excessive kernel warnings.
MIPS: RC32434: fix broken PCI resource initialization
MIPS: malta: memory.c: Initialize the 'memsize' variable
MIPS: Fix typo when reporting cache and ftlb errors for ImgTec cores
MIPS: Fix inconsistancy of __NR_Linux_syscalls value
MIPS: Fix branch emulation of branch likely instructions.
MIPS: Fix a typo error in AUDIT_ARCH definition
MIPS: Change type of asid_cache to unsigned long
Pull scheduler fixes from Ingo Molnar:
"Various fixlets, mostly related to the (root-only) SCHED_DEADLINE
policy, but also a hotplug bug fix and a fix for a NR_CPUS related
overallocation bug causing a suspend/resume regression"
* 'sched-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
sched: Fix hotplug vs. set_cpus_allowed_ptr()
sched/cpupri: Replace NR_CPUS arrays
sched/deadline: Replace NR_CPUS arrays
sched/deadline: Restrict user params max value to 2^63 ns
sched/deadline: Change sched_getparam() behaviour vs SCHED_DEADLINE
sched: Disallow sched_attr::sched_policy < 0
sched: Make sched_setattr() correctly return -EFBIG

With current output field change, GTK browser cannot display callchain
information correctly since it couldn't determine where the symbol
column is. This is a problem - just for now I changed to use the last
column since it'll work for most cases.
Also it has a same problem of the percentage as stdio code.
