Pull perf tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
"Perf event/metric description:
Unify all event and metric descriptions in JSON format. Now event
parsing and handling is greatly simplified by that.
From users point of view, perf list will provide richer information
about hardware events like the following.
$ perf list hw
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e or -M):
legacy hardware:
branch-instructions
[Retired branch instructions [This event is an alias of branches]. Unit: cpu]
branch-misses
[Mispredicted branch instructions. Unit: cpu]
branches
[Retired branch instructions [This event is an alias of branch-instructions]. Unit: cpu]
bus-cycles
[Bus cycles,which can be different from total cycles. Unit: cpu]
cache-misses
[Cache misses. Usually this indicates Last Level Cache misses; this is intended to be used in conjunction with the
PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_REFERENCES event to calculate cache miss rates. Unit: cpu]
cache-references
[Cache accesses. Usually this indicates Last Level Cache accesses but this may vary depending on your CPU. This may include
prefetches and coherency messages; again this depends on the design of your CPU. Unit: cpu]
cpu-cycles
[Total cycles. Be wary of what happens during CPU frequency scaling [This event is an alias of cycles]. Unit: cpu]
cycles
[Total cycles. Be wary of what happens during CPU frequency scaling [This event is an alias of cpu-cycles]. Unit: cpu]
instructions
[Retired instructions. Be careful,these can be affected by various issues,most notably hardware interrupt counts. Unit: cpu]
ref-cycles
[Total cycles; not affected by CPU frequency scaling. Unit: cpu]
But most notable changes would be in the perf stat. On the right side,
the default metrics are better named and aligned. :)

Deferred unwinding support:
With the kernel support (commit c69993ecdd4d: "perf: Support deferred
user unwind"), perf can use deferred callchains for userspace stack
trace with frame pointers like below:
$ perf record --call-graph fp,defer ...
This will be transparent to users when it comes to other commands like
perf report and perf script. They will merge the deferred callchains
to the previous samples as if they were collected together.
ARM SPE updates
- Extensive enhancements to support various kinds of memory
operations including GCS, MTE allocation tags, memcpy/memset,
register access, and SIMD operations.
- Add inverted data source filter (inv_data_src_filter) support to
exclude certain data sources.
- Improve documentation.
Vendor event updates:
- Intel: Updated event files for Sierra Forest, Panther Lake, Meteor
Lake, Lunar Lake, Granite Rapids, and others.
- Arm64: Added metrics for i.MX94 DDR PMU and Cortex-A720AE
definitions.
- RISC-V: Added JSON support for T-HEAD C920V2.
Misc:
- Improve pointer tracking in data type profiling. It'd give better
output when the variable is using container_of() to convert type.
- Annotation support for perf c2c report in TUI. Press 'a' key to
enter annotation view from cacheline browser window. This will show
which instruction is causing the cacheline contention.
- Lots of fixes and test coverage improvements!"

This feature test is no longer used so remove.
The function tested by the feature test is used in:
tools/power/x86/x86_energy_perf_policy/x86_energy_perf_policy.c
however, the Makefile just assumes the presence of the function and
doesn't perform a build feature test for it.

This is one more remnant of the BUILD_NONDISTRO series to make building

In this case just the references at link time were still in place, which
make building the test-all.bin file fail, which wasn't detected before
probably because the last test was done with binutils-devel available,
doh.
Now:

Clang's -dumpmachine outputs "aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu", which does not
match the MultiArch convention. This prevents the build system from
detecting installed packages.
Fix by stripping the trailing '-' from CROSS_COMPILE when setting

The feature test programs are built without enabling '-Wall -Werror'
options. As a result, a feature may appear to be available, but later
building in perf can fail with stricter checks.

perf doesn't use libtracefs and so it doesn't make sense to assume it is
always available when building test-all.bin, defeating the feature check
speedup it provides.
The other tools/build/ users such as rtla, rv, etc call $(feature_check
libtracefs) to check its availability instead of using the test-all.bin
mechanism, stopping the build and asking for libtracefs-devel to be
installed.
Remove it from FEATURE_TESTS_BASIC to not have it as available, as noted
by Ian Rogers during review.

If libperl is installed then the perf tool build will build against
it. There appears to be limited interest in the scripting support for
perl so let's make it opt-in and deprecate it.
With this patch applied you need to add LIBPERL=1 to get libperl
support in perf - there is no warning if libperl is missing, but
building will fail if libperl is missing and the build has LIBPERL=1.
The perf version output is changed to:
```

This creates a config option that detects libbpf's ability to display
character arrays as strings, which was just added to the BPF tree
(https://git.kernel.org/bpf/bpf-next/c/87c9c79a02b4).
To test this change, I built perf (from later in this patch set) with:
- static libbpf (default, using source from kernel tree)
- dynamic libbpf (LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 LIBBPF_INCLUDE=/usr/local/include)
For both the static and dynamic versions, I used headers with and without
the ".emit_strings" option.
I verified that of the four resulting binaries, the two with
".emit_strings" would successfully record BPF_METADATA events, and the two
without wouldn't. All four binaries would successfully display
BPF_METADATA events, because the relevant bit of libbpf code is only used
during "perf record".

Pull perf tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
"perf record:
- Introduce latency profiling using scheduler information.
The latency profiling is to show impacts on wall-time rather than
cpu-time. By tracking context switches, it can weight samples and
find which part of the code contributed more to the execution
latency.
The value (period) of the sample is weighted by dividing it by the
number of parallel execution at the moment. The parallelism is
tracked in perf report with sched-switch records. This will reduce
the portion that are run in parallel and in turn increase the
portion of serial executions.
For now, it's limited to profile processes, IOW system-wide
profiling is not supported. You can add --latency option to enable
this.
$ perf record --latency -- make -C tools/perf
I've run the above command for perf build which adds -j option to
make with the number of CPUs in the system internally. Normally
it'd show something like below:
$ perf report -F overhead,comm
...
#
# Overhead Command
# ........ ...............
#
78.97% cc1
6.54% python3
4.21% shellcheck
3.28% ld
1.80% as
1.37% cc1plus
0.80% sh
0.62% clang
0.56% gcc
0.44% perl
0.39% make
...
The cc1 takes around 80% of the overhead as it's the actual
compiler. However it runs in parallel so its contribution to
latency may be less than that. Now, perf report will show both
overhead and latency (if --latency was given at record time) like
below:
$ perf report -s comm
...
#
# Overhead Latency Command
# ........ ........ ...............
#
78.97% 48.66% cc1
6.54% 25.68% python3
4.21% 0.39% shellcheck
3.28% 13.70% ld
1.80% 2.56% as
1.37% 3.08% cc1plus
0.80% 0.98% sh
0.62% 0.61% clang
0.56% 0.33% gcc
0.44% 1.71% perl
0.39% 0.83% make
...
You can see latency of cc1 goes down to around 50% and python3 and
ld contribute a lot more than their overhead. You can use --latency
option in perf report to get the same result but ordered by
latency.
$ perf report --latency -s comm
perf report:
- As a side effect of the latency profiling work, it adds a new
output field 'latency' and a sort key 'parallelism'. The below is a
result from my system with 64 CPUs. The build was well-parallelized
but contained some serial portions.
$ perf report -s parallelism
...
#
# Overhead Latency Parallelism
# ........ ........ ...........
#
16.95% 1.54% 62
13.38% 1.24% 61
12.50% 70.47% 1
11.81% 1.06% 63
7.59% 0.71% 60
4.33% 12.20% 2
3.41% 0.33% 59
2.05% 0.18% 64
1.75% 1.09% 9
1.64% 1.85% 5
...
- Support Feodra mini-debuginfo which is a LZMA compressed symbol
table inside ".gnu_debugdata" ELF section.
perf annotate:
- Add --code-with-type option to enable data-type profiling with the
usual annotate output.
Instead of focusing on data structure, it shows code annotation
together with data type it accesses in case the instruction refers
to a memory location (and it was able to resolve the target data
type). Currently it only works with --stdio.
$ perf annotate --stdio --code-with-type

The "# data-type:" part was added with this change. The first few
entries are not very interesting. But later you can it accesses a
couple of fields in the task_struct, files_struct and fdtable.
perf trace:
- Support syscall tracing for different ABI. For example it can trace
system calls for 32-bit applications on 64-bit kernel
transparently.
- Add --summary-mode=total option to show global syscall summary. The
default is 'thread' to show per-thread syscall summary.
Python support:
- Add more interfaces to 'perf' module to parse events, and config,
enable or disable the event list properly so that it can implement
basic functionalities purely in Python. There is an example code
for these new interfaces in python/tracepoint.py.
- Add mypy and pylint support to enable build time checking. Fix some
code based on the findings from these tools.
Internals:

The feature test for system bpftool uses BPFTOOL as the variable to set
its path, defaulting to just "bpftool" if not set by the user.
This conflicts with selftests and a few other utilities, which expect
BPFTOOL to be set to the in-tree bpftool path by default. For example,
bpftool selftests fail to build:
$ make -C tools/testing/selftests/bpf/
make: Entering directory '/home/tglozar/dev/linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf'
make: *** No rule to make target 'bpftool', needed by '/home/tglozar/dev/linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/tools/include/vmlinux.h'. Stop.
make: Leaving directory '/home/tglozar/dev/linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf'
Fix the problem by renaming the variable used for system bpftool from
BPFTOOL to SYSTEM_BPFTOOL, so that the new usage does not conflict with
the existing one of BPFTOOL.

There's some expressed interest in having the compiler flag
-Wconversion detect at build time certain kinds of potential problems:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250103182532.GB781381@e132581.arm.com/
As feature detection passes -Wconversion from CFLAGS when set, the
feature detection compile tests need to not fail because of
-Wconversion as the failure will be interpretted as a missing
feature. Switch various types to avoid the -Wconversion issue, the
exact meaning of the code is unimportant as it is typically looking
for header file definitions.

All architectures now support HAVE_SYSCALL_TABLE_SUPPORT, so the flag is
no longer needed. With the removal of the flag, the related
GENERIC_SYSCALL_TABLE can also be removed.
libaudit was only used as a fallback for when HAVE_SYSCALL_TABLE_SUPPORT
was not defined, so libaudit is also no longer needed for any
architecture.

The macro ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD defines the compress algorithm, which was
introduced in the commit ("libelf: Document and make ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD
usable with old system elf.h") of the repository elfutils-0.188-67.
Therefore, libelf 0.189 and later versions require to link the libzstd
library.
Add a test for checking if libelf supports ZSTD algorithm. Pass the
macro ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD as an argument to the elf_compress() function.
If the build succeeds, it means the feature is supported.

Since these are so far considered part of the basic set of libraries to
be present when building perf, have then in
tools/build/features/test-all.c.
They were already in the FEATURE_TESTS_BASIC variable of
tools/build/Makefile.feature, meaning if test-all.c builds, those
features would be set as present, but then we were calling "again"
(well, they were not in test-all.c, so were not really being tested) for
it to be detected, fix this all up by not calling feature_check for
those features but instead have them in test-all.c to be tested together
with the the set of basic expected libraries.

Since 13e17c9ff49119aa ("perf build: Make libunwind opt-in rather than
opt-out"), so we shouldn't by default be testing for its availability at
build time in tools/build/features/test-all.c.
That test was designed to test the features we expect to be the most
common ones in most builds, so if we test build just that file, then we
assume the features there are present and will not test one by one.
Removing it from test-all.c gets rid of the first impediment for
test-all.c to build successfully:
$ cat /tmp/build/perf-tools-next/feature/test-all.make.output
In file included from test-all.c:62:
test-libunwind.c:2:10: fatal error: libunwind.h: No such file or directory
2 | #include <libunwind.h>
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
$
We then get to:
$ cat /tmp/build/perf-tools-next/feature/test-all.make.output
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lunwind-x86_64: No such file or directory
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lunwind: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
$
So make all the logic related to setting CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, etc for
libunwind to be conditional on NO_LIBWUNWIND=1, which is now the
default, now we get a faster build:
$ cat /tmp/build/perf-tools-next/feature/test-all.make.output

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"

Currently the libtraceevent's found by pkg-config, which give the
include path as:

-I/usr/local/include/traceevent
So we should include the libtraceevent headers directly without
"traceevent/" prefix. Update all the users.

2009-06-13, but that is 15 years ago and very unlikely. Add a test to
test-libdw.c and assume the libdw version is at least 0.142 to
simplify the build logic.

The new LLVM addr2line feature requires a minimum version of 13 to
compile. Add a feature check for the version so that NO_LLVM=1 doesn't
need to be explicitly added. Leave the existing llvm feature check
intact because it's used by tools other than Perf.
This fixes the following compilation error when the llvm-dev version
doesn't match:
util/llvm-c-helpers.cpp: In function 'char* llvm_name_for_code(dso*, const char*, u64)':

feature detection from working"
Ian pointed out that the libcap feature test is also used by bpftool, so
we can't remove it just because perf stopped using it, revert the
removal of the feature test.
Since both perf and libcap uses the fast path feature detection
(tools/build/feature/test-all.c), probably the best thing is to keep
libcap-devel when building perf even it not being used there.
This reverts commit 47b3b6435e4bfb61ae8ffc63a11bd3c310f69acf.

detection from working
I noticed that the fast path feature detection was failing:
$ cat /tmp/build/perf-tools-next/feature/test-all.make.output
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcap: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
$
The patch removing the dependency (Fixes tag below) didn't remove the
detection of libcap, and as the fast path feature detection (test-all.c)
had -lcap in its Makefile link list of libraries to link, it was failing
when libcap-devel is not available, fix it by removing those leftover
files.

The capstone devel headers define 'struct bpf_insn' in a way that clashes with
what is in the libbpf devel headers, so we so far need to avoid including both.
This is happening on the tools/build/feature/test-all.c file, where we try
building all the expected set of libraries to be normally available on a
system:
⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$ cat /tmp/build/perf-tools-next/feature/test-all.make.output
In file included from test-bpf.c:3,
from test-all.c:150:
/home/acme/git/perf-tools-next/tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h:77:8: error: ‘bpf_insn’ defined as wrong kind of tag
77 | struct bpf_insn {
| ^~~~~~~~
⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$ cat /tmp/build/perf-tools-next/feature/test-all.make.output
When doing so there is a trick where we define main to be
main_test_libcapstone, then include the individual
tools/build/feture/test-libcapstone.c capability query test, and then we undef
'main' because we'll do it all over again with the next expected library to
be tested (at this time 'lzma').
To complete this mechanism we need to, in test-all.c 'main' routine, to
call main_test_libcapstone(), which isn't being done, so the effect of
adding references to capstone in test-all.c are not achieved.
The only thing that is happening is that test-all.c is failing to build and thus
all the tests will have to be done individually, which nullifies the test-all.c
single build speedup.
So lets remove references to capstone from test-all.c to see if this makes it
build again so that we get faster builds or go on fixing up whatever is
preventing us to get that benefit.
Nothing: after this fix we get a clean test-all.c build and get the build speedup back:
⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$ cat /tmp/build/perf-tools-next/feature/test-all.make.output
⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$ cat /tmp/build/perf-tools-next/feature/test-all.

When build static perf, Makefile reports the error:
Makefile.config:480: No libdw DWARF unwind found, Please install
elfutils-devel/libdw-dev >= 0.158 and/or set LIBDW_DIR
The libdw has been installed on the system, but the build system fails
to build the feature detecting binary 'test-libdw-dwarf-unwind'. The
failure is caused by missing to link the lib 'zstd'.
Link lib 'zstd' for the static build, in the end, the dwarf feature can
be enabled in the static perf.

to the 'lzma' lib is missed, so link it to dismiss building failure.

Since libdw version 0.177, elfutils has merged libebl.a into libdw (see
the commit "libebl: Don't install libebl.a, libebl.h and remove backends
from spec." in the elfutils repository).
As a result, libebl.a does not exist on Debian Bullseye and newer
releases, causing static perf builds to fail on these distributions.
This commit checks the libdw version and only links libebl.a if it
detects that the libdw version is older than 0.177.

On recent Linux distros like Ubuntu Noble and Debian Bookworm, the
'pkg-config-aarch64-linux-gnu' package is missing. As a result, the
aarch64-linux-gnu-pkg-config command is not available, which causes
build failures.
When a build passes the environment variables PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR or
PKG_CONFIG_PATH, like a user uses make command or a build system
(like Yocto, Buildroot, etc) prepares the variables and passes to the
Perf's Makefile, the commit keeps these variables for package
configuration. Otherwise, this commit sets the PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR
variable to use the Multiarch libs for the cross compilation.

Needed to add required include directories for the feature detection
to succeed. The header tracefs.h is installed either into the include
directory /usr/include/tracefs/tracefs.h when using the Makefile, or
into /usr/include/libtracefs/tracefs.h when using meson to build
libtracefs. The header tracefs.h uses #include <event-parse.h> from
libtraceevent, so pkg-config needs to pick the correct include directory
for libtracefs and add the one for libtraceevent to succeed.
Note that in baa2ca59ec1e31ccbe3f24ff0368152b36f68720 the variable
LIBTRACEEVENT_DIR was introduced, and now the method to compile against
non-standard locations requires PKG_CONFIG_PATH to be set instead, which
works for both libtraceevent and libtracefs.

Use libtracefs as package name to lookup the CFLAGS for libtracefs. This
makes it possible to use the distro specific path as include path for
the header file.

Since commit d927ef5004ef ("perf cs-etm: Add exception level consistency
check"), the exception that was added to Perf will be triggered unless
the following bugfix from OpenCSD is present:
- _Version 1.2.1_:
- __Bugfix__:
ETM4x / ETE - output of context elements to client can in some
circumstances be delayed until after subsequent atoms have been
processed leading to incorrect memory decode access via the client
callbacks. Fixed to flush context elements immediately they are
committed.
Rather than remove the assert and silently fail, just increase the
minimum version requirement to avoid hard to debug issues and
regressions.

The dwarf_getcfi() is available on libdw 0.142+. Instead of just
checking the version number, it'd be nice to have a config item to check
the feature at build time.

When removing the BPF event for perf a feature test that checks if the
llvm devel files are availabe was removed but that is also used by
bpftool.
bpftool uses it to decide what kind of disassembly it will use: llvm or
binutils based.
Removing the tools/build/feature/test-llvm.cpp file made bpftool to
always fallback to binutils disassembly, even with the llvm devel files
installed, fix it by restoring just that small test-llvm.cpp test file.
Fixes: 56b11a2126bf2f42 ("perf bpf: Remove support for embedding clang for compiling BPF events (-e foo.c)")
