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, ivybridge, ivytown, jaketown, lunarlake, meteorlake, nehalemep, 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 record --off-cpu: Add --off-cpu-thresh option

perf record --off-cpu: Add --off-cpu-thresh option
Specify the threshold for dumping offcpu samples with --off-cpu-thresh, the unit is milliseconds. Default value is 500ms.
Example:
perf record --off-cpu --off-cpu-thresh 824
The example above collects direct off-cpu samples where the off-cpu time is longer than 824ms.
Committer testing:
After commenting out the end off-cpu dump to have just the ones that are added right after the task is scheduled back, and using a threshould of 1000ms, we see some periods (the 5th column, just before "offcpu-time" in the 'perf script' output) that are over 1000.000.000 nanoseconds:

Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.4-3-2023-05-06' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux
Pull perf tool updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: "Third version of perf tool updates, with the build problems with with using a 'vmlinux.h' generated from the main build fixed, and the bpf skeleton build disabled by default.
Build:
- Require libtraceevent to build, one can disable it using NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1.
It is required for tools like 'perf sched', 'perf kvm', 'perf trace', etc.
libtraceevent is available in most distros so installing 'libtraceevent-devel' should be a one-time event to continue building perf as usual.
Using NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 produces tooling that is functional and sufficient for lots of users not interested in those libtraceevent dependent features.
- Allow Python support in 'perf script' when libtraceevent isn't linked, as not all features requires it, for instance Intel PT does not use tracepoints.
- Error if the python interpreter needed for jevents to work isn't available and NO_JEVENTS=1 isn't set, preventing a build without support for JSON vendor events, which is a rare but possible condition. The two check error messages:
$(error ERROR: No python interpreter needed for jevents generation. Install python or build with NO_JEVENTS=1.) $(error ERROR: Python interpreter needed for jevents generation too old (older than 3.6). Install a newer python or build with NO_JEVENTS=1.)
- Make libbpf 1.0 the minimum required when building with out of tree, distro provided libbpf.
- Use libsdtc++'s and LLVM's libcxx's __cxa_demangle, a portable C++ demangler, add 'perf test' entry for it.
- Make binutils libraries opt in, as distros disable building with it due to licensing, they were used for C++ demangling, for instance.
- Switch libpfm4 to opt-out rather than opt-in, if libpfm-devel (or equivalent) isn't installed, we'll just have a build warning:
Makefile.config:1144: libpfm4 not found, disables libpfm4 support. Please install libpfm4-dev
- Add a feature test for scandirat(), that is not implemented so far in musl and uclibc, disabling features that need it, such as scanning for tracepoints in /sys/kernel/tracing/events.
perf BPF filters:
- New feature where BPF can be used to filter samples, for instance:
$ sudo ./perf record -e cycles --filter 'period > 1000' true $ sudo ./perf script perf-exec 2273949 546850.708501: 5029 cycles: ffffffff826f9e25 finish_wait+0x5 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 2273949 546850.708508: 32409 cycles: ffffffff826f9e25 finish_wait+0x5 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 2273949 546850.708526: 143369 cycles: ffffffff82b4cdbf xas_start+0x5f ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 2273949 546850.708600: 372650 cycles: ffffffff8286b8f7 __pagevec_lru_add+0x117 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 2273949 546850.708791: 482953 cycles: ffffffff829190de __mod_memcg_lruvec_state+0x4e ([kernel.kallsyms]) true 2273949 546850.709036: 501985 cycles: ffffffff828add7c tlb_gather_mmu+0x4c ([kernel.kallsyms]) true 2273949 546850.709292: 503065 cycles: 7f2446d97c03 _dl_map_object_deps+0x973 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2)
- In addition to 'period' (PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD), the other PERF_SAMPLE_ can be used for filtering, and also some other sample accessible values, from tools/perf/Documentation/perf-record.txt:
Essentially the BPF filter expression is:
<term> <operator> <value> (("," | "||") <term> <operator> <value>)*
The <term> can be one of: ip, id, tid, pid, cpu, time, addr, period, txn, weight, phys_addr, code_pgsz, data_pgsz, weight1, weight2, weight3, ins_lat, retire_lat, p_stage_cyc, mem_op, mem_lvl, mem_snoop, mem_remote, mem_lock, mem_dtlb, mem_blk, mem_hops
The <operator> can be one of: ==, !=, >, >=, <, <=, &
The <value> can be one of: <number> (for any term) na, load, store, pfetch, exec (for mem_op) l1, l2, l3, l4, cxl, io, any_cache, lfb, ram, pmem (for mem_lvl) na, none, hit, miss, hitm, fwd, peer (for mem_snoop) remote (for mem_remote) na, locked (for mem_locked) na, l1_hit, l1_miss, l2_hit, l2_miss, any_hit, any_miss, walk, fault (for mem_dtlb) na, by_data, by_addr (for mem_blk) hops0, hops1, hops2, hops3 (for mem_hops)
perf lock contention:
- Show lock type with address.
- Track and show mmap_lock, siglock and per-cpu rq_lock with address. This is done for mmap_lock by following the current->mm pointer:
$ sudo ./perf lock con -abl -- sleep 10 contended total wait max wait avg wait address symbol ... 16344 312.30 ms 2.22 ms 19.11 us ffff8cc702595640 17686 310.08 ms 1.49 ms 17.53 us ffff8cc7025952c0 3 84.14 ms 45.79 ms 28.05 ms ffff8cc78114c478 mmap_lock 3557 76.80 ms 68.75 us 21.59 us ffff8cc77ca3af58 1 68.27 ms 68.27 ms 68.27 ms ffff8cda745dfd70 9 54.53 ms 7.96 ms 6.06 ms ffff8cc7642a48b8 mmap_lock 14629 44.01 ms 60.00 us 3.01 us ffff8cc7625f9ca0 3481 42.63 ms 140.71 us 12.24 us ffffffff937906ac vmap_area_lock 16194 38.73 ms 42.15 us 2.39 us ffff8cd397cbc560 11 38.44 ms 10.39 ms 3.49 ms ffff8ccd6d12fbb8 mmap_lock 1 5.43 ms 5.43 ms 5.43 ms ffff8cd70018f0d8 1674 5.38 ms 422.93 us 3.21 us ffffffff92e06080 tasklist_lock 581 4.51 ms 130.68 us 7.75 us ffff8cc9b1259058 5 3.52 ms 1.27 ms 703.23 us ffff8cc754510070 112 3.47 ms 56.47 us 31.02 us ffff8ccee38b3120 381 3.31 ms 73.44 us 8.69 us ffffffff93790690 purge_vmap_area_lock 255 3.19 ms 36.35 us 12.49 us ffff8d053ce30c80
- Update default map size to 16384.
- Allocate single letter option -M for --map-nr-entries, as it is proving being frequently used.
- Fix struct rq lock access for older kernels with BPF's CO-RE (Compile once, run everywhere).
- Fix problems found with MSAn.
perf report/top:
- Add inline information when using --call-graph=fp or lbr, as was already done to the --call-graph=dwarf callchain mode.
- Improve the 'srcfile' sort key performance by really using an optimization introduced in 6.2 for the 'srcline' sort key that avoids calling addr2line for comparision with each sample.
perf sched:
- Make 'perf sched latency/map/replay' to use "sched:sched_waking" instead of "sched:sched_waking", consistent with 'perf record' since d566a9c2d482 ("perf sched: Prefer sched_waking event when it exists").
perf ftrace:
- Make system wide the default target for latency subcommand, run the following command then generate some network traffic and press control+C:
# perf ftrace latency -T __kfree_skb ^C DURATION | COUNT | GRAPH | 0 - 1 us | 27 | ############# | 1 - 2 us | 22 | ########### | 2 - 4 us | 8 | #### | 4 - 8 us | 5 | ## | 8 - 16 us | 24 | ############ | 16 - 32 us | 2 | # | 32 - 64 us | 1 | | 64 - 128 us | 0 | | 128 - 256 us | 0 | | 256 - 512 us | 0 | | 512 - 1024 us | 0 | | 1 - 2 ms | 0 | | 2 - 4 ms | 0 | | 4 - 8 ms | 0 | | 8 - 16 ms | 0 | | 16 - 32 ms | 0 | | 32 - 64 ms | 0 | | 64 - 128 ms | 0 | | 128 - 256 ms | 0 | | 256 - 512 ms | 0 | | 512 - 1024 ms | 0 | | 1 - ... s | 0 | | #
perf top:
- Add --branch-history (LBR: Last Branch Record) option, just like already available for 'perf record'.
- Fix segfault in thread__comm_len() where thread->comm was being used outside thread->comm_lock.
perf annotate:
- Allow configuring objdump and addr2line in ~/.perfconfig., so that you can use alternative binaries, such as llvm's.
perf kvm:
- Add TUI mode for 'perf kvm stat report'.
Reference counting:
- Add reference count checking infrastructure to check for use after free, done to the 'cpumap', 'namespaces', 'maps' and 'map' structs, more to come.
To build with it use -DREFCNT_CHECKING=1 in the make command line to build tools/perf. Documented at:
https://perf.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Reference_Count_Checking
- The above caught, for instance, fix, present in this series:
- Fix maps use after put in 'perf test "Share thread maps"':
'maps' is copied from leader, but the leader is put on line 79 and then 'maps' is used to read the reference count below - so a use after put, with the put of maps happening within thread__put.
Fixed by reversing the order of puts so that the leader is put last.
- Also several fixes were made to places where reference counts were not being held.
- Make this one of the tests in 'make -C tools/perf build-test' to regularly build test it and to make sure no direct access to the reference counted structs are made, doing that via accessors to check the validity of the struct pointer.
ARM64:
- Fix 'perf report' segfault when filtering coresight traces by sparse lists of CPUs.
- Add support for 'simd' as a sort field for 'perf report', to show ARM's NEON SIMD's predicate flags: "partial" and "empty".
arm64 vendor events:
- Add N1 metrics.
Intel vendor events:
- Add graniterapids, grandridge and sierraforrest events.
- Refresh events for: alderlake, aldernaken, broadwell, broadwellde, broadwellx, cascadelakx, haswell, haswellx, icelake, icelakex, jaketown, meteorlake, knightslanding, sandybridge, sapphirerapids, silvermont, skylake, tigerlake and westmereep-dp
- Refresh metrics for alderlake-n, broadwell, broadwellde, broadwellx, haswell, haswellx, icelakex, ivybridge, ivytown and skylakex.
perf stat:
- Implement --topdown using JSON metrics.
- Add TopdownL1 JSON metric as a default if present, but disable it for now for some Intel hybrid architectures, a series of patches addressing this is being reviewed and will be submitted for v6.5.
- Use metrics for --smi-cost.
- Update topdown documentation.
Vendor events (JSON) infrastructure:
- Add support for computing and printing metric threshold values. For instance, here is one found in thesapphirerapids json file:
{ "BriefDescription": "Percentage of cycles spent in System Management Interrupts.", "MetricExpr": "((msr@aperf@ - cycles) / msr@aperf@ if msr@smi@ > 0 else 0)", "MetricGroup": "smi", "MetricName": "smi_cycles", "MetricThreshold": "smi_cycles > 0.1", "ScaleUnit": "100%" },
- Test parsing metric thresholds with the fake PMU in 'perf test pmu-events'.
- Support for printing metric thresholds in 'perf list'.
- Add --metric-no-threshold option to 'perf stat'.
- Add rand (reverse and) and has_pmem (optane memory) support to metrics.
- Sort list of input files to avoid depending on the order from readdir() helping in obtaining reproducible builds.
S/390:
- Add common metrics: - CPI (cycles per instruction), prbstate (ratio of instructions executed in problem state compared to total number of instructions), l1mp (Level one instruction and data cache misses per 100 instructions).
- Add cache metrics for z13, z14, z15 and z16.
- Add metric for TLB and cache.
ARM:
- Add raw decoding for SPE (Statistical Profiling Extension) v1.3 MTE (Memory Tagging Extension) and MOPS (Memory Operations) load/store.
Intel PT hardware tracing:
- Add event type names UINTR (User interrupt delivered) and UIRET (Exiting from user interrupt routine), documented in table 32-50 "CFE Packet Type and Vector Fields Details" in the Intel Processor Trace chapter of The Intel SDM Volume 3 version 078.
- Add support for new branch instructions ERETS and ERETU.
- Fix CYC timestamps after standalone CBR
ARM CoreSight hardware tracing:
- Allow user to override timestamp and contextid settings.
- Fix segfault in dso lookup.
- Fix timeless decode mode detection.
- Add separate decode paths for timeless and per-thread modes.
auxtrace:
- Fix address filter entire kernel size.
Miscellaneous:
- Fix use-after-free and unaligned bugs in the PLT handling routines.
- Use zfree() to reduce chances of use after free.
- Add missing 0x prefix for addresses printed in hexadecimal in 'perf probe'.
- Suppress massive unsupported target platform errors in the unwind code.
- Fix return incorrect build_id size in elf_read_build_id().
- Fix 'perf scripts intel-pt-events.py' IPC output for Python 2 .
- Add missing new parameter in kfree_skb tracepoint to the python scripts using it.
- Add 'perf bench syscall fork' benchmark.
- Add support for printing PERF_MEM_LVLNUM_UNC (Uncached access) in 'perf mem'.
- Fix wrong size expectation for perf test 'Setup struct perf_event_attr' caused by the patch adding perf_event_attr::config3.
- Fix some spelling mistakes"
