      perf tools: Use /proc/<PID>/task/<TID>/status for PERF_RECORD_ event synthesis · 30626e08
      Namhyung Kim authored 
      To save memory usage, it needs to reduce the number of entries in the
proc filesystem.  It's using /proc/<PID>/task directory to traverse
threads in the process and then kernel creates /proc/<PID>/task/<TID>
entries.

After that it checks the thread info using the /proc/<TID>/status file
rather than /proc/<PID>/task/<TID>/status.  As far as I can see, they
are the same and contain all the info we need.

Using the latter eliminates the unnecessary /proc/<TID> entry.  This can
be useful especially a large number of threads are used in the system.
In my experiment around 1KB of memory on average was saved for each
thread (which is not a thread group leader).

To do this, pass both pid and tid to perf_event_prepare_comm() if it
knows them.  In case it doesn't know, passing 0 as pid will do the old
way.

In general the "PublicDescription" fields are not modified when somewhat
significantly worded differently than the standard.

Apart from that, description and names for events slightly different to

Note that names for events 0x34 and 0x35 are non-standard and remain
unchanged. Those events came from the following originally:

      perf script: Support DSO filter like in other perf tools · 4b799a9b
      Jin Yao authored 
      Other perf tool builtins already supported a DSO filter.

For example:

  $ perf report --dsos a,b,c

which only considers symbols in these dsos.

Now the DSO filter is supported in 'perf script':

      perf tools: Fix DSO filtering when not finding a map for a sampled address · c69bf11a
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      When we lookup an address and don't find a map we should filter that
sample if the user specified a list of --dso entries to filter on, fix
it.

Before:

  $ perf script
             sleep 274800  2843.556162:          1 cycles:u:  ffffffffbb26bff4 [unknown] ([unknown])
             sleep 274800  2843.556168:          1 cycles:u:  ffffffffbb2b047d [unknown] ([unknown])
             sleep 274800  2843.556171:          1 cycles:u:  ffffffffbb2706b2 [unknown] ([unknown])
             sleep 274800  2843.556174:          6 cycles:u:  ffffffffbb2b0267 [unknown] ([unknown])
             sleep 274800  2843.556176:         59 cycles:u:  ffffffffbb2b03b1 [unknown] ([unknown])
             sleep 274800  2843.556180:        691 cycles:u:  ffffffffbb26bff4 [unknown] ([unknown])
             sleep 274800  2843.556189:       9160 cycles:u:      7fa9550eeaa3 __GI___tunables_init+0xf3 (/usr/lib64/ld-2.32.so)
             sleep 274800  2843.556312:      86937 cycles:u:      7fa9550e157b _dl_lookup_symbol_x+0x4b (/usr/lib64/ld-2.32.so)
  $

So we have some samples we somehow didn't find in a map for, if we now
do:

  $ perf report --stdio --dso /usr/lib64/ld-2.32.so
  # dso: /usr/lib64/ld-2.32.so
  #
  # Total Lost Samples: 0
  #
  # Samples: 8  of event 'cycles:u'
  # Event count (approx.): 96856
  #
  # Overhead  Command  Symbol
  # ........  .......  ........................
  #
      89.76%  sleep    [.] _dl_lookup_symbol_x
       9.46%  sleep    [.] __GI___tunables_init
       0.71%  sleep    [k] 0xffffffffbb26bff4
       0.06%  sleep    [k] 0xffffffffbb2b03b1
       0.01%  sleep    [k] 0xffffffffbb2b0267
       0.00%  sleep    [k] 0xffffffffbb2706b2
       0.00%  sleep    [k] 0xffffffffbb2b047d
  $

After this patch we get the right output with just entries for the DSOs
specified in --dso:

  $ perf report --stdio --dso /usr/lib64/ld-2.32.so
  # dso: /usr/lib64/ld-2.32.so
  #
  # Total Lost Samples: 0
  #
  # Samples: 8  of event 'cycles:u'
  # Event count (approx.): 96856
  #
  # Overhead  Command  Symbol
  # ........  .......  ........................
  #
      89.76%  sleep    [.] _dl_lookup_symbol_x
       9.46%  sleep    [.] __GI___tunables_init
  $
  #

      perf stat: Add Topdown metrics events as default events · 42641d6f
      Kan Liang authored 
      The Topdown Microarchitecture Analysis (TMA) Method is a structured
analysis methodology to identify critical performance bottlenecks in
out-of-order processors. From the Ice Lake and later platforms, the
Topdown information can be retrieved from the dedicated "metrics"
register, which isn't impacted by other events. Also, the Topdown
metrics support both per thread/process and per core measuring.  Adding
Topdown metrics events as default events can enrich the default
measuring information, and would not cost any extra multiplexing.

Introduce arch_evlist__add_default_attrs() to allow architecture
specific default events. Add the Topdown metrics events in the X86
specific arch_evlist__add_default_attrs(). Other architectures can add
their own default events later separately.

With the patch:

 $ perf stat sleep 1
