Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.17-2025-08-01' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools

Pull perf tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
"Build-ID processing goodies:

Build-IDs are content based hashes to link regions of memory to ELF
files in post processing. They have been available in distros for
quite a while:

$ file /bin/bash
/bin/bash: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV),
dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2,
BuildID[sha1]=707a1c670cd72f8e55ffedfbe94ea98901b7ce3a,
for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, stripped

It is possible to ask the kernel to get it from mmap executable
backing storage at time they are being put in place and send it as
metadata at that moment to have in perf.data.

Prefer that across the board to speed up 'record' time - it post
processes the samples to find binaries touched by any samples and
to save them with build-ID. It can skip reading build-ID in
userspace if it comes from the kernel.

perf record:

* Make --buildid-mmap default. The kernel can generate MMAP2 events
with a build-ID from ELF header. Use that by default instead of using
inode and device ID to identify binaries. It also can be disabled
with --no-buildid-mmap.

* Use BPF for -u/--uid option to sample processes belong to a user.
BPF can track user processes more accurately and the existing logic
often fails to get the list of processes due to race with reading the
/proc filesystem.

* Generate PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA when it profiles BPF programs and
they have variables starting with "bpf_metadata_". This will help to
identify BPF objects used in the profile. This has been supported in
bpftool for some time and allows the recording of metadata such as
commit hashes, versions, etc, that now gets recorded in perf.data as
well.

* Collect list of DSOs touched in the sample callchains as well as in
the sample itself. This would increase the processing time at the end
of record, but can improve the data quality.

perf stat:

* Add a new 'drm' pseudo-PMU support like in 'hwmon'. It can collect
DRM usage stats using fdinfo in /proc.

On my Intel laptop, it shows like below:

$ perf list drm
...

drm:
drm-active-stolen-system0
[Total memory active in one or more engines. Unit: drm_i915]
drm-active-system0

...

$ sudo perf stat -a -e drm-engine-render,drm-engine-video,drm-engine-capacity-video sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

48,137,316,988,873 ns drm-engine-render

1.002086194 seconds time elapsed

perf list

* Add description for software events. The description is in JSON format
and the event parser now can handle the software events like others
(for example, it's case-insensitive and subject to wildcard matching).

$ perf list software

List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e or -M):

software:
alignment-faults
[Number of kernel handled memory alignment faults. Unit: software]
bpf-output
[An event used by BPF programs to write to the perf ring buffer. Unit: software]
cgroup-switches
[Number of context switches to a task in a different cgroup. Unit: software]
context-switches
[Number of context switches [This event is an alias of cs]. Unit: software]
cpu-clock
[Per-CPU high-resolution timer based event. Unit: software]
cpu-migrations
[Number of times a process has migrated to a new CPU [This event is an alias of migrations]. Unit: software]
cs
[Number of context switches [This event is an alias of context-switches]. Unit: software]
dummy
[A placeholder event that doesn't count anything. Unit: software]
emulation-faults
[Number of kernel handled unimplemented instruction faults handled through emulation. Unit: software]
faults
[Number of page faults [This event is an alias of page-faults]. Unit: software]
major-faults
[Number of major page faults. Major faults require I/O to handle. Unit: software]
migrations
[Number of times a process has migrated to a new CPU [This event is an alias of cpu-migrations]. Unit: software]
minor-faults
[Number of minor page faults. Minor faults don't require I/O to handle. Unit: software]
page-faults
[Number of page faults [This event is an alias of faults]. Unit: software]
task-clock
[Per-task high-resolution timer based event. Unit: software]

perf ftrace:

* Add -e/--events option to perf ftrace latency to measure latency
between the two events instead of a function.

$ sudo perf ftrace latency -ab -e i915_request_wait_begin,i915_request_wait_end --hide-empty -- sleep 1
# DURATION | COUNT | GRAPH |
256 - 512 us | 4 | ###### |

# statistics (in usec)
total time: 194915
avg time: 6961
max time: 12855
min time: 373
count: 28

* Add new function graph tracer options (--graph-opts) to display more
info like arguments and return value. They will be passed to the
kernel ftrace directly.

$ sudo perf ftrace -G vfs_write --graph-opts retval,retaddr
# tracer: function_graph

# | | | | | | |

5) 0.845 us | } /* _raw_spin_lock_irqsave ret=0x292 */
...

Misc:

* Add perf archive --exclude-buildids <FILE> option to skip some binaries.
The format of the FILE should be same as an output of perf buildid-list.

* Get rid of dependency of libcrypto. It was just to get SHA-1 hash so
implement it directly like in the kernel. A side effect is that it
needs -fno-strict-aliasing compiler option (again, like in the kernel).

* Convert all shell script tests to use bash"

perf record: collect BPF metadata from existing BPF programs

Look for .rodata maps, find ones with 'bpf_metadata_' variables, extract
their values as strings, and create a new PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADA

perf record: collect BPF metadata from existing BPF programs

Look for .rodata maps, find ones with 'bpf_metadata_' variables, extract
their values as strings, and create a new PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA
synthetic event using that data. The code gets invoked from the existing
routine perf_event__synthesize_one_bpf_prog().

For example, a BPF program with the following variables:

const char bpf_metadata_version[] SEC(".rodata") = "3.14159";
int bpf_metadata_value[] SEC(".rodata") = 42;

would generate a PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA record with:

.prog_name = <BPF program name, e.g. "bpf_prog_a1b2c3_foo">
.nr_entries = 2
.entries[0].key = "version"
.entries[0].value = "3.14159"
.entries[1].key = "value"
.entries[1].value = "42"

Each of the BPF programs and subprograms that share those variables would
get a distinct PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA record, with the ".prog_name"
showing the name of each program or subprogram. The prog_name is
deliberately the same as the ".name" field in the corresponding
PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL record.

This code only gets invoked if support for displaying BTF char arrays
as strings is detected.

Since there is no way to align compressed data in zstd compression, this
patch add a new event type `PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED2`, which adds a field
`data_size` to specify the actual compressed data size.

The `header.size` contains the total record size, including the padding
at the end to make it 8-byte aligned.

Tested with `Zstd perf.data compression/decompression`

Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.11-2024-07-16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools

Pull perf tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
"Build:

- Build each directory as a library so that depedency check for the
python extension module can be automatic

- Use pkg-config to check libtraceevent and libtracefs

perf sched:

- Add --task-name and --fuzzy-name options for `perf sched map`

It focuses on selected tasks only by removing unrelated tasks in
the output. It matches the task comm with the given string and the
--fuzzy-name option allows the partial matching:

$ sudo perf sched record -a sleep 1

$ sudo perf sched map --task-name kworker --fuzzy-name
. . . . - *A0 . . 481065.315131 secs A0 => kworker/5:2-i91:438521

- Fix -r/--repeat option of perf sched replay

The documentation said -1 will work as infinity but it didn't
accept the value. Update the code and document to use 0 instead

- Fix perf sched timehist to account the delay time for preempted
tasks

Perf event filtering:

- perf top gained filtering support on regular events using BPF like
perf record. Previously it was able to use it for tracepoints only

- The BPF filter now supports filtering by UID/GID. This should be
preferred than -u <UID> option as it's racy to scan /proc to check
tasks for the user and fails to open an event for the task if it's
already gone

$ sudo perf top -e cycles --filter "uid == $(id -u)"

perf report:

- Skip dummy events in the group output by default. The --skip-empty
option controls display of empty events without samples. But perf
report can force display all events in a group

In this case, auto-added a dummy event (for a system-wide record)
ends up in the output. Now it can skip those empty events even in
the group display mode

To preserve the old behavior, run this:

$ perf report --group --no-skip-empty

perf stat:

- Choose the most disaggregate option when multiple aggregation
options are given. It used to pick the last option in the command
line but it can be confusing and not consistent. Now it'll choose
the smallest unit

For example, it'd aggregate the result per-core when the user gave
both --per-socket and --per-core options at the same time

Internals:

- Fix `perf bench` when some CPUs are offline

- Fix handling of JIT symbol mappings to accept "/tmp/perf-${PID}.map
patterns only so that it can not be confused by other /tmp/perf-*
files

- Many improvements and fixes for `perf test`

Others:

- Support some new instructions for Intel-PT

- Fix syscall ID mapping in perf trace

- Document AMD IBS PMU usages

- Change `perf lock info` to show map and thread info by default

Vendor JSON events:

- Update Intel events and metrics

- Add i.MX9[35] DDR metrics"

perf record: Ensure space for lost samples

Previous allocation didn't account for sample ID written after the
lost samples event. Switch from malloc/free to a stack allocation.
