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 ... After: $ perf record -b true Error: Failure to open event 'cycles:P' on PMU 'cpu' which will be removed. Invalid event (cycles:P) in per-thread mode, enable system wide with '-a'.

2025-04-10perf ui browser hists: Set actions->thread before calling do_zoom_thread()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
In 7cecb7fe8388d5c3 ("perf hists: Move sort__has_comm into struct perf_hpp_list") it assumes that act->thread is set prior to calling do_zoom_thread(). This doesn't happen when we use ESC or the Left arrow key to Zoom out of a specific thread, making this operation not to work and we get stuck into the thread zoom. In 6422184b087ff435 ("perf hists browser: Simplify zooming code using pstack_peek()") it says no need to set actions->thread, and at that point that was true, but in 7cecb7fe8388d5c3 a actions->thread == NULL check was added before the zoom out of thread could kick in. We can zoom out using the alternative 't' thread zoom toggle hotkey to finally set actions->thread before calling do_zoom_thread() and zoom out, but lets also fix the ESC/Zoom out of thread case.

2025-04-10perf ui browser: Accept the left arrow key as a Zoom out if done on the ↵Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
first column In the past (like before 2015) we had the familiar workflow of using ENTER to get the menu and then zoom on a pid or DSO, kernel, etc and then use UP and DOWN to navigate further, etc, and then when wanting to go to the previous level, i.e. to Zoom out, use the LEFT arrow key. This way the right hand stays in the arrow keys block that is near the enter and we can go around real quickly. But then, when we started supporting horizontal scrolling by columns to support things like 'perf c2c report' that has lots of columns, we switched to using the LEFT key exclusively for that, horizontal scrolling, requiring the user to press 'm' to get a "context menu" that then would allow users to select the Zoom out operation. Ingo recently reported this as not intuitive, which is true, so lets overload the LEFT key with both meanings, by doing a Zoom out operation if the LEFT key is pressed when we're on the first column, but use it also for horizontal scrolling if it is pressed when the cursor is on column > 1.

Ingo reported that having a visual cue if the source code view is enabled will help in noticing a bug when no source is presented.

2025-04-10perf check: Allow showing a tip for opt-in features not built into perfArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Ingo reported that it was difficult to understand why libunwind support didn't link even when he had the usual libunwind-dev files installed in his machine. This is because libunwind became opt-in, the user has to use LIBUNWIND=1, as it was deemed stalled in its development/unsuitable for use with perf, IIRC, and so we better use the elfutils equivalent routine that we also supported for ages. But the build message still printed: Auto-detecting system features: ... libdw: [ on ] ... glibc: [ on ] <SNIP> ... libcrypto: [ on ] ... libunwind: [ OFF ] <SNIP> Which is confusing, so allow for having a tip when 'perf version --build-options' is used, and variants with 'perf check feature': $ perf version --build-options | grep libunwind libunwind: [ OFF ] # HAVE_LIBUNWIND_SUPPORT ( tip: Deprecated, use LIBUNWIND=1 and install libunwind-dev[el] to build with it ) $ $ perf check feature libunwind libunwind: [ OFF ] # HAVE_LIBUNWIND_SUPPORT ( tip: Deprecated, use LIBUNWIND=1 and install libunwind-dev[el] to build with it ) $ The next patches will remove the opt-in libunwind FEATURES_DISPLAY.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools 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.

2025-03-24perf bpf-filter: Fix a parsing error with commaNamhyung Kim
The previous change to support cgroup filters introduced a bug that pathname can include commas. It confused the lexer to treat an item and the trailing comma as a single token. And it resulted in a parse error: $ sudo perf record -e cycles:P --filter 'period > 0, ip > 64' -- true perf_bpf_filter: Error: Unexpected item: 0, perf_bpf_filter: syntax error, unexpected BFT_ERROR, expecting BFT_NUM Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>] or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>] --filter <filter> event filter It should get "0" and "," separately. An easiest fix would be to remove "," from the possible pathname characters. As it's for cgroup names, probably ok to assume it won't have commas in the pathname. I found that the existing BPF filtering test didn't have any complex filter condition with commas. Let's update the group filter test which is supposed to test filter combinations like this.

2025-03-23perf bench sched pipe: fix enforced blocking reads in worker_threadDirk Gouders
The function worker_thread() is programmed in a way that roughly doubles the number of expectable context switches, because it enforces blocking reads: Performance counter stats for 'perf bench sched pipe': 2,000,004 context-switches 11.859548321 seconds time elapsed 0.674871000 seconds user 8.076890000 seconds sys The result of this behavior is that the blocking reads by far dominate the performance analysis of 'perf bench sched pipe': Samples: 78K of event 'cycles:P', Event count (approx.): 27964965844 Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol 25.28% sched-pipe [kernel.kallsyms] [k] read_hpet 8.11% sched-pipe [kernel.kallsyms] [k] retbleed_untrain_ret 2.82% sched-pipe [kernel.kallsyms] [k] pipe_write From the code, it is unclear if that behavior is wanted but the log says that at least Ingo Molnar aims to mimic lmbench's lat_ctx, that doesn't handle the pipe ends that way (https://sourceforge.net/p/lmbench/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/lmbench2/src/lat_ctx.c) Fix worker_thread() by always first feeding the write ends of the pipes and then trying to read.

2025-03-23perf build: filter all combinations of -flto for libperlHolger Hoffstätte
When enabling the libperl feature the build uses perl's build flags (ccopts) but filters out various flags, e.g. for LTO. While this is conceptually correct, it is insufficient in practice, since only "-flto=auto" is filtered out. When perl itself is built with "-flto" this can cause parts of perf being built with LTO and others without, giving exciting build errors like e.g.: ../tools/perf/pmu-events/pmu-events.c:72851:(.text+0xb79): undefined reference to `strcmp_cpuid_str' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status Fix this by filtering all matching flag values of -flto{=n,auto,..}.

2025-03-20perf trace beauty: Add syscalltbl.sh generating all system call tablesIan Rogers
Rather than generating individual syscall header files generate a single trace/beauty/generated/syscalltbl.c. In a syscalltbls array have references to each architectures tables along with the corresponding e_machine. When the 32-bit or 64-bit table is ambiguous, match the perf binary's type. For ARM32 don't use the arm64 32-bit table which is smaller. EM_NONE is present for is no machine matches. Conditionally compile the tables, only having the appropriate 32 and 64-bit table. If ALL_SYSCALLTBL is defined all tables can be compiled. Add comment for noreturn column suggested by Arnd Bergmann: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/d47c35dd-9c52-48e7-a00d-135572f11fbb@app.fastmail.com/ and added in commit 9142be9e6443 ("x86/syscall: Mark exit[_group] syscall handlers __noreturn").

2025-03-20perf thread: Add support for reading the e_machine type for a threadIan Rogers
First try to read the e_machine from the dsos associated with the thread's maps. If live use the executable from /proc/pid/exe and read the e_machine from the ELF header. On failure use EM_HOST. Change builtin-trace syscall functions to pass e_machine from the thread rather than EM_HOST, so that in later patches when syscalltbl can use the e_machine the system calls are specific to the architecture.
