perf tools: Add optional support for libpfm4

2020-05-29T19:51:38Z

This patch links perf with the libpfm4 library if it is available and LIBPFM4 is passed to the build. The libpfm4 library contains hardware event tables for all processors supported by perf_events. It is a helper library that helps convert from a symbolic event name to the event encoding required by the underlying kernel interface. This library is open-source and available from: http://perfmon2.sf.net. With this patch, it is possible to specify full hardware events by name. Hardware filters are also supported. Events must be specified via the --pfm-events and not -e option. Both options are active at the same time and it is possible to mix and match: $ perf stat --pfm-events inst_retired:any_p:c=1:i -e cycles .... One needs to explicitely ask for its inclusion by using the LIBPFM4 make command line option, ie its opt-in rather than opt-out of feature detection and build support.

perf tests: Add test for the java demangler

Split from a larger patch that was also fixing a problem with the java demangler, so, before applying that patch we see: $ perf test java 65: Demangle Java : FAILED! $ perf test -v java 65: Demangle Java : --- start --- test child forked, pid 307264 FAILED: Ljava/lang/StringLatin1;equals([B[B)Z: bool class java.lang.StringLatin1.equals(byte[], byte[]) != boolean java.lang.StringLatin1.equals(byte[], byte[]) FAILED: Ljava/util/zip/ZipUtils;CENSIZ([BI)J: long class java.util.zip.ZipUtils.CENSIZ(byte[], int) != long java.util.zip.ZipUtils.CENSIZ(byte[], int) FAILED: Ljava/util/regex/Pattern$BmpCharProperty;match(Ljava/util/regex/Matcher;ILjava/lang/CharSequence;)Z: bool class java.util.regex.Pattern$BmpCharProperty.match(class java.util.regex.Matcher., int, class java.lang., charhar, shortequence) != boolean java.util.regex.Pattern$BmpCharProperty.match(java.util.regex.Matcher, int, java.lang.CharSequence) FAILED: Ljava/lang/AbstractStringBuilder;appendChars(Ljava/lang/String;II)V: void class java.lang.AbstractStringBuilder.appendChars(class java.lang., shorttring., int, int) != void java.lang.AbstractStringBuilder.appendChars(java.lang.String, int, int) FAILED: Ljava/lang/Object;()V: void class java.lang.Object() != void java.lang.Object() test child finished with -1 ---- end ---- Demangle Java: FAILED! $ Next patch should fix this.

tools api: Add a lightweight buffered reading api

2020-04-30T13:48:28Z

The synthesize benchmark shows the majority of execution time going to fgets and sscanf, necessary to parse /proc/pid/maps. Add a new buffered reading library that will be used to replace these calls in a follow-up CL. Add tests for the library to perf test.

perf test: Add pmu-events test

2020-03-24T13:35:59Z

The initial test will verify that the test tables in generated pmu-events.c match against known, expected values. For known events added in pmu-events/arch/test, we need to add an entry in test_cpu_aliases_events[] or test_uncore_events[]. A sample run is as follows for x86: john@linux-3c19:~/linux> tools/perf/perf test -vv 10 10: PMU event aliases : --- start --- test child forked, pid 5316 testing event table bp_l1_btb_correct: pass testing event table bp_l2_btb_correct: pass testing event table segment_reg_loads.any: pass testing event table dispatch_blocked.any: pass testing event table eist_trans: pass testing event table uncore_hisi_ddrc.flux_wcmd: pass testing event table unc_cbo_xsnp_response.miss_eviction: pass test child finished with 0 ---- end ---- PMU event aliases: Ok Signed-off-by: John Garry Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Acked-by: Jiri Olsa Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: James Clark Cc: Joakim Zhang Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Will Deacon Cc: linuxarm@huawei.com [ Fixup test_cpu_events[] and test_uncore_events[] sentinels to initialize one of its members to NULL, fixing the build in older compilers ] Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1584442939-8911-5-git-send-email-john.garry@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
