9 daysperf tp_pmu: Factor existing tracepoint logic to new fileIan Rogers
Start the creation of a tracepoint PMU abstraction. Tracepoint events don't follow the regular sysfs perf conventions. Eventually the new PMU abstraction will bridge the gap so tracepoint events look more like regular perf ones.

10 daysperf sample: Remove arch notion of sample parsingIan Rogers
By definition arch sample parsing and synthesis will inhibit certain kinds of cross-platform record then analysis (report, script, etc.). Remove arch_perf_parse_sample_weight and arch_perf_synthesize_sample_weight replacing with a common implementation. Combine perf_sample p_stage_cyc and retire_lat as weight3 to capture the differing uses regardless of compiled for architecture.

10 daysperf env: Remove global perf_envIan Rogers
The global perf_env was used for the host, but if a perf_env wasn't easy to come by it was used in a lot of places where potentially recorded and host data could be confused. Remove the global variable as now the majority of accesses retrieve the perf_env for the host from the session.

The session holds a perf_env pointer env. In UI code container_of is used to turn the env to a session, but this assumes the session header's env is in use. Rather than a dubious container_of, hold the session in the evlist and derive the env from the session with evsel__env, perf_session__env, etc. Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250724163302.596743-11-irogers@google.com Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>

Add evsel__open_per_cpu_and_thread that combines the operation of evsel__open_per_cpu and evsel__open_per_thread so that an event without the "any" cpumask can be opened with its cpumask and with threads it specifies. Change the implementation of evsel__open_per_cpu and evsel__open_per_thread to use evsel__open_per_cpu_and_thread to make the implementation of those functions clearer.

The appropriate fdinfo is found by scanning /proc and filtering which fdinfos to read with stat. To avoid some unneeding scanning, events not starting with "drm-" are ignored. The patch builds on commit 57e13264dcea ("perf pmus: Restructure pmu_read_sysfs to scan fewer PMUs") and later so that only if full wild carding is being done, the PMU starts with "drm_" or the event starts with "drm-" will /proc be scanned. That is there should be little to no cost in this PMU unless DRM events are requested.

2025-05-14perf evlist: Make uniquifying counter names consistentIan Rogers
'perf stat' has different uniquification logic to 'perf record' and perf top. In the case of perf record and 'perf top' all hybrid event names are uniquified. 'perf stat' is more disciplined respecting name config terms, libpfm4 events, etc. 'perf stat' will uniquify hybrid events and the non-core PMU cases shouldn't apply to perf record or 'perf top'. For consistency, remove the uniquification for 'perf record' and 'perf top' and reuse the 'perf stat' uniquification, making the code more globally visible for this. Fix the detection of cross-PMU for disabling uniquify by correctly setting last_pmu. When setting uniquify on an evsel, make sure the PMUs between the 2 considered events differ otherwise the uniquify isn't adding value.

2025-05-05perf record --off-cpu: Parse off-cpu eventHoward Chu
Parse the off-cpu event using parse_event(), as bpf-output. Call evlist__enable_evsel() on off-cpu event. This fixes the inability to collect direct off-cpu samples on a workload, as reported by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>. The reason being, workload sets enable_on_exec instead of calling evlist__enable(), but off-cpu event does not attach to an executable and execve won't be called, so the fds from perf_event_open() are not enabled. no-inherit should be set to 1, here's the reason: We update the BPF perf_event map for direct off-cpu sample dumping (in following patches), it executes as follows: bpf_map_update_value() bpf_fd_array_map_update_elem() perf_event_fd_array_get_ptr() perf_event_read_local() In perf_event_read_local(), there is: int perf_event_read_local(struct perf_event *event, u64 *value, u64 *enabled, u64 *running) { ... /* * It must not be an event with inherit set, we cannot read * all child counters from atomic context. */ if (event->attr.inherit) { ret = -EOPNOTSUPP; goto out; } Which means no-inherit has to be true for updating the BPF perf_event map. Moreover, for bpf-output events, we primarily want a system-wide event instead of a per-task event. The reason is that in BPF's bpf_perf_event_output(), BPF uses the CPU index to retrieve the perf_event file descriptor it outputs to. Making a bpf-output event system-wide naturally satisfies this requirement by mapping CPU appropriately.

2025-04-25perf intel-tpebs: Refactor tpebs_results listIan Rogers
evsel names and metric-ids are used for matching but this can be problematic, for example, multiple occurrences of the same retirement latency event become a single event for the record. Change the name of the record events so they are unique and reflect the evsel of the retirement latency event that opens them (the retirement latency event's evsel address is embedded within them). This allows an evsel based close to close the event when the retirement latency event is closed. This is important as 'perf stat' has an evlist and the session listen to the record events has an evlist, knowing which event should remove the tpebs_retire_lat can't be tied to an evlist list as there is more than 1, so closing which evlist should cause the tpebs to stop? Using the evsel and the last one out doing the tpebs_stop is cleaner. Committer notes: Fix the build on 32-bit systems by using unsigned long when converting pointers to integers instead of uint64_t.

2025-04-11perf tools: Remove evsel__handle_error_quirks()Namhyung Kim
The evsel__handle_error_quirks() is to fixup invalid event attributes on some architecture based on the error code. Currently it's only used for AMD to disable precise_ip not to use IBS which has more restrictions. But the commit c33aea446bf555ab changed call evsel__precise_ip_fallback for any errors so there's no difference with the above function. To make matter worse, it caused a problem with branch stack on Zen3. The IBS doesn't support branch stack so it should use a regular core PMU event. The default event is set precise_max and it starts with 3. And evsel__precise_ip_fallback() tries with it and reduces the level one by one. At last it tries with 0 but it also failed on Zen3 since the branch stack is not supported for the cycles event. At this point, evsel__precise_ip_fallback() restores the original precise_ip value (3) in the hope that it can succeed with other modifier (like exclude_kernel). Then evsel__handle_error_quirks() see it has precise_ip != 0 and make it retry with 0. This created an infinite loop. Before: $ perf record -b -vv |& grep removing removing precise_ip on AMD removing precise_ip on AMD removing precise_ip on AMD removing precise_ip on AMD removing precise_ip on AMD removing precise_ip on AMD removing precise_ip on AMD removing precise_ip on AMD removing precise_ip on AMD removing precise_ip on AMD removing precise_ip on AMD removing precise_ip on AMD ...

2024-12-09perf evsel: Allow evsel__newtp without libtraceeventIan Rogers
Switch from reading the tracepoint format to reading the id directly for the evsel config. This avoids the need to initialize libtraceevent, plugins, etc. It is sufficient for many tracepoint commands to work like: $ perf stat -e sched:sched_switch true To populate evsel->tp_format, do lazy initialization using libtraceevent in the evsel__tp_format function (the sys and name are saved in evsel__newtp_idx for this purpose). Reading the id should be indicative of the format failing to load, but if not an error is reported in evsel__tp_format. This could happen for a tracepoint with a format that fails to parse. As tracepoints can be parsed without libtraceevent with this, remove the associated #ifdefs in parse-events.c.

Sometimes it returns other than EOPNOTSUPP for invalid precise_ip so it cannot check the error code. Let's move the fallback after the missing feature checks so that it can handle EINVAL as well. This also aligns well with the existing behavior which blindly turns off the precise_ip but we check the missing features correctly now.

2024-10-22perf tools: Check fallback error and orderNamhyung Kim
The perf_event_open might fail due to various reasons, so blindly reducing precise_ip level might not be the best way to deal with it. It seems the kernel return -EOPNOTSUPP when PMU doesn't support the given precise level. Let's try again with the correct error code. This caused a problem on AMD, as it stops on precise_ip of 2 for IBS but user events with exclude_kernel=1 cannot make progress. Let's add the evsel__handle_error_quirks() to this case specially. I plan to work on the kernel side to improve this situation but it'd still need some special handling for IBS.

2024-10-22perf tools: Detect missing kernel features properlyNamhyung Kim
The evsel__detect_missing_features() is to check if the attributes of the evsel is supported or not. But it checks the attribute based on the given evsel, it might miss something if the attr doesn't have the bit or give incorrect results if the event is special. Also it maintains the order of the feature that was added to the kernel which means it can assume older features should be supported once it detects the current feature is working. To minimized the confusion and to accurately check the kernel features, I think it's better to use a software event and go through all the features at once. Also make the function static since it's only used in evsel.c.

Commit 7b100989b4f6bce70 ("perf evlist: Remove __evlist__add_default") changed to parse "cycles:P" event instead of creating a new cycles event for perf record. But it also changed the way how modifiers are handled so it doesn't set the exclude_guest bit by default. It seems Apple M1 PMU requires exclude_guest set and returns EOPNOTSUPP if not.
