Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.16-1-2025-06-03' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools

Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
"perf report/top/annotate TUI:

- Accept the left arrow key as a Zoom out if done on the first column

- Show if source code toggle status in title, to help spotting bugs
with the various disassemblers (capstone, llvm, objdump)

- Provide feedback on unhandled hotkeys

Build:

- Better inform when certain features are not available with warnings
in the build process and in 'perf version --build-options' or 'perf -vv'

perf record:

- Improve the --off-cpu code by synthesizing events for switch-out ->
switch-in intervals using a BPF program. This can be fine tuned
using a --off-cpu-thresh knob

perf report:

- Add 'tgid' sort key

perf mem/c2c:

- Add 'op', 'cache', 'snoop', 'dtlb' output fields

- Add support for 'ldlat' on AMD IBS (Instruction Based Sampling)

perf ftrace:

- Use process/session specific trace settings instead of messing with
the global ftrace knobs

perf trace:

- Implement syscall summary in BPF

- Support --summary-mode=cgroup

- Always print return value for syscalls returning a pid

- The rseq and set_robust_list don't return a pid, just -errno

perf lock contention:

- Symbolize zone->lock using BTF

- Add -J/--inject-delay option to estimate impact on application
performance by optimization of kernel locking behavior

perf stat:

- Improve hybrid support for the NMI watchdog warning

Symbol resolution:

- Handle 'u' and 'l' symbols in /proc/kallsyms, resolving some Rust
symbols

- Improve Rust demangler

Hardware tracing:

Intel PT:

- Fix PEBS-via-PT data_src

- Do not default to recording all switch events

- Fix pattern matching with python3 on the SQL viewer script

arm64:

- Fixups for the hip08 hha PMU

Vendor events:

- Update Intel events/metrics files for alderlake, alderlaken,
arrowlake, bonnell, broadwell, broadwellde, broadwellx,
cascadelakex, clearwaterforest, elkhartlake, emeraldrapids,
grandridge, graniterapids, haswell, haswellx, icelake, icelakex,

nehalemex, rocketlake, sandybridge, sapphirerapids, sierraforest,
skylake, skylakex, snowridgex, tigerlake, westmereep-dp,
westmereep-sp, westmereep-sx

python support:

- Add support for event counts in the python binding, add a
counting.py example

perf list:

- Display the PMU name associated with a perf metric in JSON

perf test:

- Hybrid improvements for metric value validation test

- Fix LBR test by ignoring idle task

- Add AMD IBS sw filter ana d'ldlat' tests

- Add 'perf trace --summary-mode=cgroup' test

- Add tests for the various language symbol demanglers

Miscellaneous:

- Allow specifying the cpu an event will be tied using '-e
event/cpu=N/'

- Sync various headers with the kernel sources

- Add annotations to use clang's -Wthread-safety and fix some
problems it detected

- Make dump_stack() use perf's symbol resolution to provide better
backtraces

- Intel TPEBS support cleanups and fixes. TPEBS stands for Timed PEBS
(Precision Event-Based Sampling), that adds timing info, the
retirement latency of instructions

- Various memory allocation (some detected by ASAN) and reference
counting fixes

- Add a 8-byte aligned PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED2 to replace
PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED

- Skip unsupported event types in perf.data files, don't stop when
finding one

- Improve lookups using hashmaps and binary searches"

perf intel-pt: Do not default to recording all switch events

On systems with many CPUs, recording extra context switch events can be
excessive and unnecessary. Add perf config intel-pt.all-switch-events=false
to control the behaviour.

Example:

# perf config intel-pt.all-switch-events=false
# perf record -eintel_pt//u uname
Linux
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.082 MB perf.data ]
# perf script -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SWITCH | awk '{print $5}' | uniq -c
5 PERF_RECORD_SWITCH
# perf config intel-pt.all-switch-events=true
# perf record -eintel_pt//u uname
Linux
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.102 MB perf.data ]
# perf script -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SWITCH | awk '{print $5}' | uniq -c
180 PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE

Committer testing:

While doing a make -j28 allmodconfig:

root@five:~# grep "model name" -m1 /proc/cpuinfo
model name : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-14700K
root@five:~#

Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.13-2024-11-24' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools

Pull perf tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
"perf record:

- Enable leader sampling for inherited task events. It was supported
only for system-wide events but the kernel started to support such
a setup since v6.12.

This is to reduce the number of PMU interrupts. The samples of the
leader event will contain counts of other events and no samples
will be generated for the other member events.

$ perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}:S' ${MYPROG}

perf stat:

- Add HWMON PMU support.

The HWMON provides various system information like CPU/GPU
temperature, fan speed and so on. Expose them as PMU events so that
users can see the values using perf stat commands.

$ perf stat -e temp_cpu,fan1 true

- Display metric threshold in JSON output.

Some metrics define thresholds to classify value ranges. It used to
be in a different color but it won't work for JSON.

"less good", "nearly bad" and "bad".

Build:

- Make libunwind opt-in (LIBUNWIND=1) rather than opt-out.

The perf tools are generally built with libelf and libdw which has
unwinder functionality. The libunwind support predates it and no
need to have duplicate unwinders by default.

- Rename NO_DWARF=1 build option to NO_LIBDW=1 in order to clarify
it's using libdw for handling DWARF information.

Internals:

- Do not set exclude_guest bit in the perf_event_attr by default.

This was causing a trouble in AMD IBS PMU as it doesn't support the
bit. The bit will be set when it's needed later by the fallback
logic. Also update the missing feature detection logic to make sure
not clear supported bits unnecessarily.

- Run perf test in parallel by default and mark flaky tests
"exclusive" to run them serially at the end. Some test numbers are
changed but the test can complete in less than half the time.

JSON vendor events:

- Add AMD Zen 5 events and metrics.

- Add i.MX91 and i.MX95 DDR metrics

- Fix HiSilicon HIP08 Topdown metric name.

- Support compat events on PowerPC"

perf pmu: Allow hardcoded terms to be applied to attributes

Hard coded terms like "config=10" are skipped by perf_pmu__config
assuming they were already applied to a perf_event_attr by parse
event's config_attr function. When doing a reverse number to name
lookup in perf_pmu__name_from_config, as the hardcoded terms aren't
applied the config value is incorrect leading to misses or false
matches. Fix this by adding a parameter to have perf_pmu__config apply
hardcoded terms too (not just in parse event's config_term_common).
