perf metric: Change divide by zero and !support events behavior

2023-05-10T15:35:02Z

Division by zero causes expression parsing to fail and no metric to be generated. This can mean for short running benchmarks metrics are not shown. Change the behavior to make the value nan, which gets shown like: ''' $ perf stat -M TopdownL2 true Performance counter stats for 'true': 1,031,492 INST_RETIRED.ANY # nan % tma_fetch_bandwidth # nan % tma_heavy_operations # nan % tma_light_operations 29,304 CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.REF_XCLK # nan % tma_fetch_latency # nan % tma_branch_mispredicts # nan % tma_machine_clears # nan % tma_core_bound # nan % tma_memory_bound 2,658,319 IDQ_UOPS_NOT_DELIVERED.CORE 11,167 EXE_ACTIVITY.BOUND_ON_STORES 262,058 EXE_ACTIVITY.1_PORTS_UTIL BR_MISP_RETIRED.ALL_BRANCHES (0.00%) INT_MISC.RECOVERY_CYCLES_ANY (0.00%) CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.ONE_THREAD_ACTIVE (0.00%) CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.THREAD (0.00%) UOPS_RETIRED.RETIRE_SLOTS (0.00%) CYCLE_ACTIVITY.STALLS_MEM_ANY (0.00%) UOPS_RETIRED.MACRO_FUSED (0.00%) IDQ_UOPS_NOT_DELIVERED.CYCLES_0_UOPS_DELIV.CORE (0.00%) EXE_ACTIVITY.2_PORTS_UTIL (0.00%) CYCLE_ACTIVITY.STALLS_TOTAL (0.00%) MACHINE_CLEARS.COUNT (0.00%) UOPS_ISSUED.ANY (0.00%) 0.002864879 seconds time elapsed 0.003012000 seconds user 0.000000000 seconds sys ''' When events aren't supported a count of 0 can be confusing and make metrics look meaningful.

perf expr: Make the online topology accessible globally

2023-02-19T11:03:12Z

Knowing the topology of online CPUs is useful for more than just expr literals. Move to a global function that caches the value. An additional upside is that this may also avoid computing the CPU topology in some situations.

libbpf: Hashmap interface update to allow both long and void* keys/values

2022-11-10T04:45:14Z

An update for libbpf's hashmap interface from void* -> void* to a polymorphic one, allowing both long and void* keys and values. This simplifies many use cases in libbpf as hashmaps there are mostly integer to integer. Perf copies hashmap implementation from libbpf and has to be updated as well. Changes to libbpf, selftests/bpf and perf are packed as a single commit to avoid compilation issues with any future bisect. Polymorphic interface is acheived by hiding hashmap interface functions behind auxiliary macros that take care of necessary type casts, for example: #define hashmap_cast_ptr(p) \ ({ \ _Static_assert((p) == NULL || sizeof(*(p)) == sizeof(long),\ #p " pointee should be a long-sized integer or a pointer"); \ (long *)(p); \ }) bool hashmap_find(const struct hashmap *map, long key, long *value); #define hashmap__find(map, key, value) \ hashmap_find((map), (long)(key), hashmap_cast_ptr(value)) - hashmap__find macro casts key and value parameters to long and long* respectively - hashmap_cast_ptr ensures that value pointer points to a memory of appropriate size. This hack was suggested by Andrii Nakryiko in [1]. This is a follow up for [2].

perf expr: Allow a double if expression

2022-10-06T11:03:52Z

Some TMA metrics have double if expressions like: ( CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.THREAD / 2 ) * ( 1 + CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.ONE_THREAD_ACTIVE / CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.REF_XCLK ) ) if #core_wide < 1 else ( CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.THREAD_ANY / 2 ) if #SMT_on else CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.THREAD This currently fails to parse as the left hand side if expression needs to be in parentheses. By allowing the if expression to have a right hand side that is an if expression we can parse the expression above, with left to right evaluation order that matches languages like Python.
