Restructure the event opening in perf stat to cycle through the events
by CPU after setting affinity to that CPU.
This eliminates IPI overhead in the perf API.
We have to loop through the CPU in the outter builtin-stat code instead
of leaving that to low level functions.
It has to change the weak group fallback strategy slightly. Since we
cannot easily undo the opens for other CPUs move the weak group retry to
a separate loop.
Before with a large test case with 94 CPUs:
% time seconds usecs/call calls errors syscall
------ ----------- ----------- --------- --------- ----------------
42.75 4.050910 67 60046 110 perf_event_open
After:
26.86 0.944396 16 58069 110 perf_event_open
(the number changes slightly because the weak group retries
work differently and the test case relies on weak groups)
Committer notes:
Added one of the hunks in a patch provided by Andi after I noticed that
the "event times" 'perf test' entry was segfaulting.

Architectures are expected to know if AUX area sampling is supported by
the hardware. Add a function perf_can_aux_sample() which will determine
whether the kernel supports it.
Committer notes:
I reported that this message was taking place on a kernel without the
required bits:
# perf record --aux-sample -e '{intel_pt//u,branch-misses:u}'
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 7 (Argument list too long) for event (branch-misses:u).
/bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.
Adrian sent a patch addressing it, with this explanation:
----
perf_can_aux_sample_size() always returned true because it did not pass
the attribute size to sys_perf_event_open, nor correctly check the
return value and errno.
----
After applying it I get, later in the series, when --aux-sample is
added:
# perf record --aux-sample -e '{intel_pt//u,branch-misses:u}'
AUX area sampling is not supported by kernel

We'll need this to support 'perf trace e tracepoint --filter=expr', as
the command line tracepoint filter is attache to the preceding evsel,
just like in 'perf record' and when we go to set pid filters, which we
do at the minimum to filter 'perf trace' own syscalls, we need to
append, not set the tp filter.

Will be used by 'perf trace' to support 'perf trace --filter', we need
to append to any pre-existing filter.
When parse_filter() gets invoked to process --filter, it'll set the
filter to that specified on the command line, later on, when we filter
out 'perf trace' own pid to avoid an event feedback loop, we need to
preserve the command line filter put in place by parse_filter().

Ditch it, noone is using it, one more stdio.h include in a hot header.
Fix the fallout in parse-events.y, where we end up using a FILE pointer,
I think due to YYDEBUG being set and in some places, like Amazon Linux 1
we don't get stdio.h included by luck, like in most other places, add a
explicit stdio.h include directive.

As this isn't used at all in mmap.h but in evlist.h, so to cut down the

Also add mmap.h to the places using it but previously getting it
indirectly via evlist.h.
Add missing pthread.h to evlist.h, as it has a pthread_t struct member
and was getting the header via mmap.h.
Noticed while processing a Jiri's libperf batch touching mmap.h, where
almost everything gets rebuilt because evlist.h is so popular, so cut
down't this rebuild the world party.

Implement a --mmap-flush option that specifies minimal number of bytes
that is extracted from mmaped kernel buffer to store into a trace. The
default option value is 1 byte what means every time trace writing
thread finds some new data in the mmaped buffer the data is extracted,
possibly compressed and written to a trace.
$ tools/perf/perf record --mmap-flush 1024 -e cycles -- matrix.gcc
$ tools/perf/perf record --aio --mmap-flush 1K -e cycles -- matrix.gcc
The option is independent from -z setting, doesn't vary with compression
level and can serve two purposes.
The first purpose is to increase the compression ratio of a trace data.
Larger data chunks are compressed more effectively so the implemented
option allows specifying data chunk size to compress. Also at some cases
executing more write syscalls with smaller data size can take longer
than executing less write syscalls with bigger data size due to syscall
overhead so extracting bigger data chunks specified by the option value
could additionally decrease runtime overhead.
The second purpose is to avoid self monitoring live-lock issue in system
wide (-a) profiling mode. Profiling in system wide mode with compression
(-a -z) can additionally induce data into the kernel buffers along with
the data from monitored processes. If performance data rate and volume
from the monitored processes is high then trace streaming and
compression activity in the tool is also high. High tool process
activity can lead to subtle live-lock effect when compression of single
new byte from some of mmaped kernel buffer leads to generation of the
next single byte at some mmaped buffer. So perf tool process ends up in
endless self monitoring.
Implemented synch parameter is the mean to force data move independently
from the specified flush threshold value. Despite the provided flush
value the tool needs capability to unconditionally drain memory buffers,
at least in the end of the collection.
Committer testing:
Running with the default value, i.e. as soon as there is something to
read go on consuming, we first write the synthesized events, small
chunks of about 128 bytes:
# perf trace -m 2048 --call-graph dwarf -e write -- perf record
<SNIP>
101.142 ( 0.004 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x210db60, count: 120) = 120

record__write (inlined)
process_synthesized_event (/home/acme/bin/perf)
perf_tool__process_synth_event (inlined)
perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events (/home/acme/bin/perf)
Then we move to reading the mmap buffers consuming the events put there
by the kernel perf infrastructure:
107.561 ( 0.005 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7f1befc02000, count: 336) = 336

If we limit it to write only when more than 16MB are available for
reading, it throttles that to a quarter of the --mmap-pages set for
'perf record', which by default get to 528384 bytes, found out using
'record -v':
mmap flush: 132096
mmap size 528384B
With that in place all the writes coming from
record__mmap_read_evlist(), i.e. from the mmap buffers setup by the
kernel perf infrastructure were at least 132096 bytes long.
Trying with a bigger mmap size:
perf trace -e write perf record -v -m 2048 --mmap-flush 16M
74982.928 ( 2.471 ms): perf/26500 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7ff94a6cc000, count: 3580888) = 3580888

74987.764 ( 2.629 ms): perf/26500 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7ff9496ca000, count: 3859232) = 3859232

74994.814 ( 2.619 ms): perf/26500 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7ff947ec7000, count: 4194688) = 4194688
74997.439 ( 2.787 ms): perf/26500 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7ff9476c6000, count: 4029760) = 4029760
Was again limited to a quarter of the mmap size:
mmap flush: 2098176
mmap size 8392704B
A warning about that would be good to have but can be added later,
something like:
"max flush is a quarter of the mmap size, if wanting to bump the mmap
flush further, bump the mmap size as well using -m/--mmap-pages"
Also rename the 'sync' parameters to 'synch' to keep tools/perf building
with older glibcs:

After a discussion with Andi, move the perf_event_attr.precise_ip
detection for maximum precise config (via :P modifier or for default
cycles event) to perf_evsel__open().
The current detection in perf_event_attr__set_max_precise_ip() is
tricky, because precise_ip config is specific for given event and it
currently checks only hw cycles.
We now check for valid precise_ip value right after failing
sys_perf_event_open() for specific event, before any of the
perf_event_attr fallback code gets executed.
This way we get the proper config in perf_event_attr together with
allowed precise_ip settings.
We can see that code activity with -vv, like:
$ perf record -vv ls

This patch introduces side band thread that captures extended
information for events like PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT.
This new thread uses its own evlist that uses ring buffer with very low
watermark for lower latency.
To use side band thread, we need to:
1. add side band event(s) by calling perf_evlist__add_sb_event();
2. calls perf_evlist__start_sb_thread();
3. at the end of perf run, perf_evlist__stop_sb_thread().
In the next patch, we use this thread to handle PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT.
Committer notes:
Add fix by Jiri Olsa for when te sb_tread can't get started and then at
the end the stop_sb_thread() segfaults when joining the (non-existing)
thread.
That can happen when running 'perf top' or 'perf record' as a normal
user, for instance.
Further checks need to be done on top of this to more graciously handle
these possible failure scenarios.
