Use more general naming for the main sort dimension, this can allow us not to sort only on HITM snoop type, so it can be extended to support other costly snooping operations. So rename the dimension to the prefix 'percent_costly_". Reviewed-by:

Perf c2c tool has an assumption that it heavily depends on HITM snoop type to detect cache false sharing, unfortunately, HITM is not supported on some architectures. Essentially, perf c2c tool wants to find some very costly snooping operations for false cache sharing, this means it's not necessarily to stick using HITM tags and we can explore other snooping types (e.g. SNOOPX_PEER). For this reason, this patch renames HITM related display macros with suffix '_HITM', so it can be distinct if later add more display types for on other snooping type. Reviewed-by:

Since the flag PERF_MEM_SNOOPX_PEER is added to support cache snooping from peer cache line, it can come from a peer core, a peer cluster, or a remote NUMA node. This patch adds statistics for the flag PERF_MEM_SNOOPX_PEER. Note, we take PERF_MEM_SNOOPX_PEER as an affiliated info, it needs to cooperate with cache level statistics. Therefore, we account the load operations for both the cache level's metrics (e.g. ld_l2hit, ld_llchit, etc.) and peer related metrics when flag PERF_MEM_SNOOPX_PEER is set. So three new metrics are introduced: 'lcl_peer' is for local cache access, the metric 'rmt_peer' is for remote access (includes remote DRAM and any caches in remote node), and the metric 'tot_peer' is accounting the sum value of 'lcl_peer' and 'rmt_peer'.

When synthesizing data from SPE, augment the type with source information for Arm Neoverse cores. The field is IMPLDEF but the Neoverse cores all use the same encoding. I can't find encoding information for any other SPE implementations to unify their choices with Arm's thus that is left for future work. This change populates the mem_lvl_num for Neoverse cores as well as the deprecated mem_lvl namespace. Reviewed-by:

Add a flag to the 'perf mem' data struct to signal that a request caused a cache-to-cache transfer of a line from a peer of the requestor and wasn't sourced from a lower cache level. The line being moved from one peer cache to another has latency and performance implications. On Arm64 Neoverse systems the data source can indicate a cache-to-cache transfer but not if the line is dirty or clean, so instead of overloading HITM define a new flag that indicates this type of transfer. Committer notes: This really is not syncing with the kernel since the patch to the kernel wasn't merged. But we're going ahead of this as it seems trivial and is just a matter of the perf kernel maintainers to give their ack or for us to find another way of expressing this in the perf records synthesized in userspace from the ARM64 hardware traces.

Some processes store jitted code in memfd mappings to avoid having rwx mappings. These processes map the code with a writeable mapping and a read-execute mapping. They write the code using the writeable mapping and then unmap the writeable mapping. All subsequent execution is through the read-execute mapping. perf inject --jit ignores //anon* mappings for each process where a jitdump is present because it expects to inject mmap events for each jitted code range, and said jitted code ranges will overlap with the //anon* mappings. Ignore /memfd: and [anon:* mappings so that jitted code contained in /memfd: and [anon:* mappings is treated the same way as jitted code contained in //anon* mappings. Signed-off-by:

While separate features have been defined to determine which linking flags are required to use libbfd depending on the distribution (libbfd, libbfd-liberty and libbfd-liberty-z), the same has not been done for other features requiring linking to libbfd. For example, disassembler-four-args requires linking to libbfd too, but it should use the right linking flags. If not all the required ones are specified, e.g. -liberty, detection will always fail even if the feature is available. Instead of creating new features, similarly to libbfd, simply retry detection with the different set of flags until detection succeeds (or fails, if the libraries are missing). In this way, feature detection is transparent for the users of this building mechanism (e.g. perf), and those users don't have for example to set an appropriate value for the FEATURE_CHECK_LDFLAGS-disassembler-four-args variable. The number of retries and features for which the retry mechanism is implemented is low enough to make the increase in the complexity of Makefile negligible. Tested with perf and bpftool on Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS, Fedora 36 and openSUSE Tumbleweed. Committer notes: Do the retry for disassembler-init-styled as well. Signed-off-by:
