vendor/platform.
Add support for a further level, to support vendor/platform
sub-directories in future, which will be vendor/platform/cpu and

Recently there was an undetected breakage for std arch event support.
Add support in "PMU events" testcase to detect such breakages.
For this, the "test" arch needs has support added to process std arch
events. And a test event is added for the test, ifself.
Also add a few code comments to help understand the code a bit better.
Committer testing:
Before:
# perf test -vv pmu |& grep l3_cache_rd
#
After:
# perf test -vv pmu |& grep l3_cache_rd
testing event table l3_cache_rd: pass
testing aliases PMU cpu: matched event l3_cache_rd

The event code for events referencing std arch events is incorrectly
evaluated in json_events().
The issue is that je.event is evaluated properly from try_fixup(), but
later NULLified from the real_event() call, as "event" may be NULL.
Fix by setting "event" same je.event in try_fixup().
Also remove support for overwriting event code for events using std arch
events, as it is not used.

Initially, every time we want to add new terms like chip, core thread etc,
we need to create corrsponding fields in pmu_events and event struct.
This patch adds an enum called 'aggr_mode_class' which store all these
aggregation like perchip/percore. It also adds new field 'aggr_mode'
to capture these terms.
Now, if user wants to add any new term, they just need to add it in
the enum defined.

This patch adds new structure called 'json_event' inside jevents.c
file to improve the callback prototype inside jevent files.
Initially, whenever user want to add new field, they need to update
in all function callback which make it more and more complex with
increased number of parmeters.
With this change, we just need to add it in new structure 'json_event'.

With the goal of supporting pmu-events test case, introduce support for
a test events folder.
These test events can be used for testing generation of pmu-event tables
and alias creation for any arch.
When running the pmu-events test case, these test events will be used as
the platform-agnostic events, so aliases can be created per-PMU and
validated against known expected values.
To support the test events, add a "testcpu" entry in pmu_events_map[].
The pmu-events test will be able to lookup the events map for "testcpu",
to verify the generated tables against expected values.
The resultant generated pmu-events.c will now look like the following:
struct pmu_event pme_ampere_emag[] = {
{
.name = "ldrex_spec",
.event = "event=0x6c",
.desc = "Exclusive operation spe...",
.topic = "intrinsic",
.long_desc = "Exclusive operation ...",
},
...
};
struct pmu_event pme_test_cpu[] = {
{
.name = "uncore_hisi_ddrc.flux_wcmd",
.event = "event=0x2",
.desc = "DDRC write commands. Unit: hisi_sccl,ddrc ",
.topic = "uncore",
.long_desc = "DDRC write commands",
.pmu = "hisi_sccl,ddrc",
},
{
.name = "unc_cbo_xsnp_response.miss_eviction",
.event = "umask=0x81,event=0x22",
.desc = "Unit: uncore_cbox A cross-core snoop resulted ...",
.topic = "uncore",
.long_desc = "A cross-core snoop resulted from L3 ...",
.pmu = "uncore_cbox",
},
{

There are some deprecated events listed by perf list. But we can't
remove them from perf list with ease because some old scripts may use
them.
Deprecated events are old names of renamed events. When an event gets
renamed the old name is kept around for some time and marked with
Deprecated. The newer Intel event lists in the tree already have these
headers.
So we need to keep them in the event list, but provide a new option to
show them. The new option is "--deprecated".
With this patch, the deprecated events are hidden by default but they
can be displayed when option "--deprecated" is enabled.

event syntax error: 'UPI_DATA_BANDWIDTH_TX'
\___ parser error
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
The JSON lists call the box UPI LL, while perf calls it upi. Add
conversion support to JSON to convert the unit properly.
Committer notes:
[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Ultra_Path_Interconnect
"The Intel Ultra Path Interconnect (UPI) is a point-to-point processor
interconnect developed by Intel which replaced the Intel QuickPath
Interconnect (QPI) in Xeon Skylake-SP platforms starting in 2017.
UPI is a low-latency coherent interconnect for scalable multiprocessor
systems with a shared address space. It uses a directory-based home
snoop coherency protocol with a transfer speed of up to 10.4 GT/s.
Supporting processors typically have two or three UPI links."

For some architectures (like arm), there are architecture- defined
events. Sometimes these events may be "recommended" according to the
architecture standard, in that the implementer is free ignore the
"recommendation" and create its custom event.
This patch adds support for parsing standard events from arch-defined
JSONs, and fixing up vendor events when they have implemented these
events as standard.
Support is also ensured that the vendor may implement their own custom
events.
A new step is added to the pmu events parsing to fix up the vendor
events with the arch-standard events.
The arch-defined JSONs must be placed in the arch root folder for
preprocessing prior to tree JSON processing.
In the vendor JSON, to specify that the arch event is supported, the
keyword "ArchStdEvent" should be used, like this:
[
{
"ArchStdEvent": "L1D_CACHE_WR",
},
]
Matching is based on the "EventName" field in the architecture JSON.
No other JSON objects are strictly required. However, for other objects
added, these take precedence over architecture defined standard events,
thus supporting separate events which have the same event code.

For some architectures (like arm), it is required to support a vendor
subdirectory and not locate all the JSONs for a specific vendor in the
same folder.
This is because all the events for the same vendor will be placed in the
same pmu events table, which may cause conflict. This conflict would be
in the instance that a vendor's custom implemented events do have the
same meaning on different platforms, so events in the pmu table would
conflict. In addition, per list command may show events which are not
even supported for a given platform.
This patch adds support for a arch/vendor/platform directory hierarchy,
while maintaining backwards-compatibility for existing arch/platform
structure. In this, each platform would always have its own pmu events
table.
In generated file pmu_events.c, each platform table name is in the
format pme{_vendor}_platform, like this:
struct pmu_events_map pmu_events_map[] = {
{
.cpuid = "0x00000000420f5160",
.version = "v1",
.type = "core",
.table = pme_cavium_thunderx2
},
{
.cpuid = 0,
.version = 0,
.type = 0,
.table = 0,
},
};

Currently a topic subdirectory is supported in the pmu-events dir, in
the following sample structure: /arch/platform/subtopic/mysubtopic.json
Upto 256 levels of topic subdirectories are supported. So this means
that JSONs may be located in a topic dir as well as the platform dir.
This topic subdirectory causes problems if we want to add support for a
vendor dir in the pmu-events structure (in the form
arch/platform/vendor), in that we cannot differentiate between a vendor
dir and a topic dir.
Since the topic dir feature is not used, drop it so it does not block
adding vendor subdirectory support.

When EXPECT macro fails an assertion, the error code is not properly set

This is because err is set to the return value from func function

for for each loop. I assume that this was not the intention, so change
the code so err is set appropriately in EXPECT macro itself.
In addition to this, the indention in EXPECT macro is tidied. The

The powerpc cpuid information includes chip revision information.
Changes between chip revisions are usually minor bug fixes and usually
do not affect the operation of the performance monitoring hardware.
The original mapfile.csv matching requires enumerating every possible
cpuid string. When a new minor chip revision is produced a new entry
has to be added to the mapfile.csv and the code recompiled to allow perf
to have the implementation specific perf events for this new minor
revision. For users of various distibutions of Linux having to wait for
a new release of the kernel's perf tool to be built with these trivial
patches is inconvenient.
Using regular expressions rather than exactly string matching of the
entire cpuid string allows developers to write mapfile.csv files that do
not require patches and recompiles for each of these minor version
changes. If special cases need to be made for some particular versions,
they can be placed earlier in the mapfile.csv file before the more
general matches.

This is a modified version of an earlier patch by Andi Kleen.
We expect architectures to create JSON files describing the performance
monitoring (PMU) events that each CPU model/family of the architecture
supports.
Following is an example of the JSON file entry for an x86 event:
[
...
{
"EventCode": "0x00",
"UMask": "0x01",
"EventName": "INST_RETIRED.ANY",
"BriefDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.",
"PublicDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.",
"Counter": "Fixed counter 1",
"CounterHTOff": "Fixed counter 1",
"SampleAfterValue": "2000003",
"SampleAfterValue": "2000003",
"MSRIndex": "0",
"MSRValue": "0",
"TakenAlone": "0",
"CounterMask": "0",
"Invert": "0",
"AnyThread": "0",
"EdgeDetect": "0",
"PEBS": "0",
"PRECISE_STORE": "0",
"Errata": "null",
"Offcore": "0"
},
...
]
All the PMU events supported by a CPU model/family must be grouped into
"topics" such as "Pipelining", "Floating-point", "Virtual-memory" etc.
All events belonging to a topic must be placed in a separate JSON file
(eg: "Pipelining.json") and all the topic JSON files for a CPU model must
be in a separate directory.
Eg: for the CPU model "Silvermont_core":
$ ls tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core
Floating-point.json
Memory.json
Other.json
Pipelining.json
Virtualmemory.json
Finally, to allow multiple CPU models to share a single set of JSON files,
architectures must provide a mapping between a model and its set of events:
$ grep Silvermont tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/mapfile.csv
GenuineIntel-6-4D,V13,Silvermont_core,core
GenuineIntel-6-4C,V13,Silvermont_core,core
which maps each CPU, identified by [vendor, family, model, version, type]
to a directory of JSON files. Thus two (or more) CPU models support the
set of PMU events listed in the directory.
tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core/
Given this organization of files, the program, jevents:
- locates all JSON files for each CPU-model of the architecture,
- parses all JSON files for the CPU-model and generates a C-style
"PMU-events table" (pmu-events.c) for the model
- locates a mapfile for the architecture
- builds a global table, mapping each model of CPU to the corresponding
PMU-events table.
The 'pmu-events.c' is generated when building perf and added to libperf.a.
The global table pmu_events_map[] table in this pmu-events.c will be used
in perf in a follow-on patch.
If the architecture does not have any JSON files or there is an error in
processing them, an empty mapping file is created. This would allow the
build of perf to proceed even if we are not able to provide aliases for
events.
The parser for JSON files allows parsing Intel style JSON event files. This
allows to use an Intel event list directly with perf. The Intel event lists
can be quite large and are too big to store in unswappable kernel memory.
The conversion from JSON to C-style is straight forward. The parser knows
(very little) Intel specific information, and can be easily extended to
handle fields for other CPUs.
The parser code is partially shared with an independent parsing library,
which is 2-clause BSD licensed. To avoid any conflicts I marked those
files as BSD licensed too. As part of perf they become GPLv2.
Committer notes:
Fixes:
1) Limit maxfds to 512 to avoid nftd() segfaulting on alloca() with a
big rlim_max, as in docker containers - acme
2) Make jevents a hostprog, supporting cross compilation - jolsa
3) Use HOSTCC for jevents final step - acme
4) Define _GNU_SOURCE for asprintf, as we can't use CC's EXTRA_CFLAGS,
that has to have --sysroot on the Android NDK 24 - acme
5) Removed $(srctree)/tools/perf/pmu-events/pmu-events.c from the
'clean' target, it is generated on $(OUTPUT)pmu-events/pmu-events.c,
which is already taken care of in the original patch - acme
