2017-02-20perf utils: Check verbose flag properlyNamhyung Kim
It now can have negative value to suppress the message entirely. So it needs to check it being positive.

2017-02-08perf jevents: Add support for parsing uncore json filesAndi Kleen
Handle the "Unit" field, which is needed to find the right PMU for an event. We call it "pmu" and convert it to the perf pmu name with an uncore prefix. Handle the "ExtSel" field, which just extends the event mask with an additional bit. Handle the "Filter" field which adds parameters to the main event to configure filtering. Handle the "Unit" field which declares the unit the values should be scaled too (similar to what the kernel exports) Set up the "perpkg" field for uncore events so that perf knows they are per package (similar to what the kernel exports) Then output the fields into the pmu-events data structures which are compiled into perf. Filter out zero fields, except for the event itself. v2: Fix compilation. Add uncore_ prefix at pre-processing time. Move eventcode change to separate patch. v3: Remove extra __maybe_unused v4: dont duplicate aliases for cpu pmu events Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170128020345.19007-3-andi@firstfloor.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2016-10-03perf pmu-events: Fix fixed counters on IntelAndi Kleen
The JSON event lists use a different encoding for fixed counters than perf for instructions and cycles (ref-cycles is ok) This lead to some common events like inst_retired.any or cpu_clk_unhalted.thread not counting, when specified with their JSON name. Special case these events in the jevents conversion process. I prefer to not touch the JSON files for this, as it's intended that standard JSON files can be just dropped into the perf build without changes.

2016-10-03perf jevents: Program to convert JSON fileAndi Kleen
This is a modified version of an earlier patch by Andi Kleen. We expect architectures to create JSON files describing the performance monitoring (PMU) events that each CPU model/family of the architecture supports. Following is an example of the JSON file entry for an x86 event: [ ... { "EventCode": "0x00", "UMask": "0x01", "EventName": "INST_RETIRED.ANY", "BriefDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.", "PublicDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.", "Counter": "Fixed counter 1", "CounterHTOff": "Fixed counter 1", "SampleAfterValue": "2000003", "SampleAfterValue": "2000003", "MSRIndex": "0", "MSRValue": "0", "TakenAlone": "0", "CounterMask": "0", "Invert": "0", "AnyThread": "0", "EdgeDetect": "0", "PEBS": "0", "PRECISE_STORE": "0", "Errata": "null", "Offcore": "0" }, ... ] All the PMU events supported by a CPU model/family must be grouped into "topics" such as "Pipelining", "Floating-point", "Virtual-memory" etc. All events belonging to a topic must be placed in a separate JSON file (eg: "Pipelining.json") and all the topic JSON files for a CPU model must be in a separate directory. Eg: for the CPU model "Silvermont_core": $ ls tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core Floating-point.json Memory.json Other.json Pipelining.json Virtualmemory.json Finally, to allow multiple CPU models to share a single set of JSON files, architectures must provide a mapping between a model and its set of events: $ grep Silvermont tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/mapfile.csv GenuineIntel-6-4D,V13,Silvermont_core,core GenuineIntel-6-4C,V13,Silvermont_core,core which maps each CPU, identified by [vendor, family, model, version, type] to a directory of JSON files. Thus two (or more) CPU models support the set of PMU events listed in the directory. tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core/ Given this organization of files, the program, jevents: - locates all JSON files for each CPU-model of the architecture, - parses all JSON files for the CPU-model and generates a C-style "PMU-events table" (pmu-events.c) for the model - locates a mapfile for the architecture - builds a global table, mapping each model of CPU to the corresponding PMU-events table. The 'pmu-events.c' is generated when building perf and added to libperf.a. The global table pmu_events_map[] table in this pmu-events.c will be used in perf in a follow-on patch. If the architecture does not have any JSON files or there is an error in processing them, an empty mapping file is created. This would allow the build of perf to proceed even if we are not able to provide aliases for events. The parser for JSON files allows parsing Intel style JSON event files. This allows to use an Intel event list directly with perf. The Intel event lists can be quite large and are too big to store in unswappable kernel memory. The conversion from JSON to C-style is straight forward. The parser knows (very little) Intel specific information, and can be easily extended to handle fields for other CPUs. The parser code is partially shared with an independent parsing library, which is 2-clause BSD licensed. To avoid any conflicts I marked those files as BSD licensed too. As part of perf they become GPLv2. Committer notes: Fixes: 1) Limit maxfds to 512 to avoid nftd() segfaulting on alloca() with a big rlim_max, as in docker containers - acme 2) Make jevents a hostprog, supporting cross compilation - jolsa 3) Use HOSTCC for jevents final step - acme 4) Define _GNU_SOURCE for asprintf, as we can't use CC's EXTRA_CFLAGS, that has to have --sysroot on the Android NDK 24 - acme 5) Removed $(srctree)/tools/perf/pmu-events/pmu-events.c from the 'clean' target, it is generated on $(OUTPUT)pmu-events/pmu-events.c, which is already taken care of in the original patch - acme Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Madhavan Srinivasan <maddy@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1473978296-20712-3-git-send-email-sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160927141846.GA6589@krava Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2016-10-03perf tools: Add jsmn `jasmine' JSON parserAndi Kleen
I need a JSON parser. This adds the simplest JSON parser I could find -- Serge Zaitsev's jsmn `jasmine' -- to the perf library. I merely converted it to (mostly) Linux style and added support for non 0 terminated input. The parser is quite straight forward and does not copy any data, just returns tokens with offsets into the input buffer. So it's relatively efficient and simple to use. The code is not fully checkpatch clean, but I didn't want to completely fork the upstream code. Original source: http://zserge.bitbucket.org/jsmn.html In addition I added a simple wrapper that mmaps a json file and provides some straight forward access functions. Used in follow-on patches to parse event files.
