      perf vendor events: Update PMC used in PM_RUN_INST_CMPL event for power10 platform · 3f8b6e5b
      Kajol Jain authored
      The CPI_STALL_RATIO metric group can be used to present the high
      level CPI stall breakdown metrics in powerpc, which will show:
      
      - DISPATCH_STALL_CPI ( Dispatch stall cycles per insn )
      - ISSUE_STALL_CPI ( Issue stall cycles per insn )
      - EXECUTION_STALL_CPI ( Execution stall cycles per insn )
      - COMPLETION_STALL_CPI ( Completion stall cycles per insn )
      
      Commit cf26e043 ("perf vendor events power10: Add JSON
      metric events to present CPI stall cycles in powerpc)" which added
      the CPI_STALL_RATIO metric group, also modified
      the PMC value used in PM_RUN_INST_CMPL event from PMC4 to PMC5,
      to avoid multiplexing of events.
      But that got revert in recent changes. Fix this issue by changing
      back the PMC value used in PM_RUN_INST_CMPL to PMC5.
      
      Result with the fix:
      
       ./perf stat --metric-no-group -M CPI_STALL_RATIO <workload>

      "--metric-no-group" is used for forcing PM_RUN_INST_CMPL to be scheduled
      in all group for more accuracy.

      perf trace: Use the right bpf_probe_read(_str) variant for reading user data · 5069211e
      Thomas Richter authored
      Perf test case 111 Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname
      fails on s390. This is caused by a failing function
      bpf_probe_read() in file util/bpf_skel/augmented_raw_syscalls.bpf.c.
      
      The root cause is the lookup by address. Function bpf_probe_read()
      is used. This function works only for architectures
      with ARCH_HAS_NON_OVERLAPPING_ADDRESS_SPACE.
      
      On s390 is not possible to determine from the address to which
      address space the address belongs to (user or kernel space).
      
      Replace bpf_probe_read() by bpf_probe_read_kernel()
      and bpf_probe_read_str() by bpf_probe_read_user_str() to
      explicity specify the address space the address refers to.
