#1484582 — [PATCH v21 00/20] perf, tools: Add support for PMU events in JSON format

FromSukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Date2016-09-16 00:30 +0200
Subject[PATCH v21 00/20] perf, tools: Add support for PMU events in JSON format
Message-ID<shNkl-4te-3@gated-at.bofh.it>
CPUs support a large number of performance monitoring events (PMU events)
and often these events are very specific to an architecture/model of the
CPU. To use most of these PMU events with perf, we currently have to identify
them by their raw codes:

	perf stat -e r100f2 sleep 1

This patchset allows architectures to specify these PMU events in JSON
files located in 'tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/' of the mainline tree.
The events from the JSON files for the architecture are then built into
the perf binary.

At run time, perf identifies the specific set of events for the CPU and
creates "event aliases". These aliases allow users to specify events by
"name" as:

	perf stat -e pm_1plus_ppc_cmpl sleep 1

The file, 'tools/perf/pmu-events/README' in [PATCH 15/19] gives more
details.

Note:
	- All known events tables for the architecture are included in the
	  perf binary.

	- For architectures that don't have any JSON files, an empty mapping
	  table is created and they should continue to build.

Thanks to input from Andi Kleen, Jiri Olsa, Namhyung Kim and Ingo Molnar.

These patches are available from:

	https://github.com/sukadev/linux.git 
	
	Branch			Description
	------------------------------------------------------
	json-code-v21		Source Code only 
	json-code+data-v21	Both code and data (for build/test/pull)
	
NOTE: 	Only "source code" patches (i.e those in json-code-v21) are being
	emailed. Please pull the json-code+data-v21 branch for build/test.

Changelog[v21]
	- Rebase to recent perf/core
	- Group the PMU events supported by a CPU model into topics and
	  create a separate JSON file for each topic for each CPU (code
	  and input from Jiri Olsa).

Changelog[v20]
	- Rebase to recent perf/core
	- Add Patch 20/20 to allow perf-stat to work with the period= field

Changelog[v19]
	Rebase to recent perf/core; fix couple lines >80 chars.

Changelog[v18]
	Rebase to recent perf/core; fix minor merge conflicts.

Changelog[v17]
	Rebase to recent perf/core; couple of small fixes to processing Intel
	JSON files; allow case-insensitive PMU event names.

Changelog[v16]
	Rebase to recent perf/core; fix minor merge conflicts; drop 3 patches
	that were merged into perf/core.

Changelog[v15]
	Code changes:
	- Fix 'perf list' usage string and update man page.
	- Remove a redundant __maybe_unused tag.
	- Rebase to recent perf/core branch.

	  to list_head *head)
	- Use asprintf() in file_name_to_tablename() and simplify/reorg code.
	- Use __weak definition from <linux/compile.h>
	- Use fopen() with mode "w" and eliminate unlink()
	- Remove minor TODO.
	- Add error check for return value from strdup() in print_pmu_events().
	- Move independent changes from patches 3,11,12 .. to separate patches
	  for easier review/backport.
	- Clarify mapfile's "header line support" in patch description.
	- Fix build failure with DEBUG=1

	Comment from Andi Kleen:
	- In tools/perf/pmu-events/Build, check for 'mapfile.csv' rather than
	  'mapfile*'

	Misc:
	- Minor changes/clarifications to tools/perf/pmu-events/README.


Changelog[v13]

#1484584 — [PATCH v21 05/19] perf, tools: Support CPU id matching for x86 v2

FromSukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Date2016-09-16 00:30 +0200
Subject[PATCH v21 05/19] perf, tools: Support CPU id matching for x86 v2
Message-ID<shNkl-4te-29@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1484582
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

Implement the code to match CPU types to mapfile types for x86
based on CPUID. This extends an existing similar function,
but changes it to use the x86 mapfile cpu description.
This allows to resolve event lists generated by jevents.

+
+The contents of this directory allow users to specify PMU events in their
+CPUs by their symbolic names rather than raw event codes (see example below).
+
+The main program in this directory, is the 'jevents', which is built and
+executed _BEFORE_ the perf binary itself is built.
+
+The 'jevents' program tries to locate and process JSON files in the directory
+tree tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/foo.
+
+	- Regular files with '.json' extension in the name are assumed to be
+	  JSON files, each of which describes a set of PMU events.
+
+	- Regular files with basename starting with 'mapfile.csv' are assumed
+	  to be a CSV file that maps a specific CPU to its set of PMU events.
+	  (see below for mapfile format)
+
+	- Directories are traversed, but all other files are ignored.
+
+The PMU events supported by a CPU model are expected to grouped into topics
+such as Pipelining, Cache, Memory, Floating-point etc. All events for a topic
+should be placed in a separate JSON file - where the file name identifies
+the topic. Eg: "Floating-point.json".
+
+All the topic JSON files for a CPU model/family should be in a separate
+sub directory. Thus for the Silvermont X86 CPU:
+
+	$ ls tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core
+	Cache.json 	Memory.json 	Virtual-Memory.json
+	Frontend.json 	Pipeline.json
+
+Using the JSON files and the mapfile, 'jevents' generates the C source file,
+'pmu-events.c', which encodes the two sets of tables:
+
+	- Set of 'PMU events tables' for all known CPUs in the architecture,
+	  (one table like the following, per JSON file; table name 'pme_power8'
+	  is derived from JSON file name, 'power8.json').
+
+		struct pmu_event pme_power8[] = {
+
+			...
+
+			{
+				.name = "pm_1plus_ppc_cmpl",
+				.event = "event=0x100f2",
+				.desc = "1 or more ppc insts finished,",
+			},
+
+			...
+		}
+
+	- A 'mapping table' that maps each CPU of the architecture, to its
+	  'PMU events table'
+
+		struct pmu_events_map pmu_events_map[] = {
+		{
+			.cpuid = "004b0000",
+			.version = "1",
+			.type = "core",
+			.table = pme_power8
+		},
+			...
+
+		};
+
+After the 'pmu-events.c' is generated, it is compiled and the resulting
+'pmu-events.o' is added to 'libperf.a' which is then used to build perf.
+
+NOTES:
+	1. Several CPUs can support same set of events and hence use a common
+	   JSON file. Hence several entries in the pmu_events_map[] could map
+	   to a single 'PMU events table'.
+
+	2. The 'pmu-events.h' has an extern declaration for the mapping table
+	   and the generated 'pmu-events.c' defines this table.
+
+	3. _All_ known CPU tables for architecture are included in the perf
+	   binary.
+
+At run time, perf determines the actual CPU it is running on, finds the
+matching events table and builds aliases for those events. This allows
+users to specify events by their name:
+
+	$ perf stat -e pm_1plus_ppc_cmpl sleep 1
+
+where 'pm_1plus_ppc_cmpl' is a Power8 PMU event.
+
+In case of errors when processing files in the tools/perf/pmu-events/arch
+directory, 'jevents' tries to create an empty mapping file to allow the perf
+build to succeed even if the PMU event aliases cannot be used.
+
+However some errors in processing may cause the perf build to fail.
+
+Mapfile format
+===============
+
+The mapfile enables multiple CPU models to share a single set of PMU events.
+It is required even if such mapping is 1:1.
+
+The mapfile.csv format is expected to be:
+
+	Header line
+	CPUID,Version,Dir/path/name,Type
+
+where:
+
+	Comma:
+		is the required field delimiter (i.e other fields cannot
+		have commas within them).
+
+	Comments:
+		Lines in which the first character is either '\n' or '#'
+		are ignored.
+
+	Header line
+		The header line is the first line in the file, which is
+		always _IGNORED_. It can empty.
+
+	CPUID:
+		CPUID is an arch-specific char string, that can be used
+		to identify CPU (and associate it with a set of PMU events
+		it supports). Multiple CPUIDS can point to the same
+		File/path/name.json.
+
+		Example:
+			CPUID == 'GenuineIntel-6-2E' (on x86).
+			CPUID == '004b0100' (PVR value in Powerpc)
+	Version:
+		is the Version of the mapfile.
+
+	Dir/path/name:
+		is the pathname to the directory containing the CPU's JSON
+		files, relative to the directory containing the mapfile.csv
+
+	Type:
+		indicates whether the events or "core" or "uncore" events.
+
+
+	Eg:
+
+	$ grep Silvermont tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/mapfile.csv
+	GenuineIntel-6-37,V13,Silvermont_core,core
+	GenuineIntel-6-4D,V13,Silvermont_core,core
+	GenuineIntel-6-4C,V13,Silvermont_core,core
+
+	i.e the three CPU models use the JSON files (i.e PMU events) listed
+	in the directory 'tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core'.

Subject[PATCH v21 06/19] perf, tools: Support alias descriptions
Message-ID<shNkm-4te-33@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1484582
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

Add support to print alias descriptions in perf list, which
are taken from the generated event files.

The sorting code is changed to put the events with descriptions
at the end. The descriptions are printed as possibly multiple word
wrapped lines.

Example output:

% perf list
...
  arith.fpu_div
       [Divide operations executed]
  arith.fpu_div_active
       [Cycles when divider is busy executing divide operations]

#1484587 — [PATCH v21 02/19] perf, tools, jevents: Program to convert JSON file to C style file

FromSukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Date2016-09-16 00:30 +0200
Subject[PATCH v21 02/19] perf, tools, jevents: Program to convert JSON file to C style file
Message-ID<shNkl-4te-21@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1484582
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

This is a modified version of an earlier patch by Andi Kleen.

We expect architectures to create JSON files describing the performance
monitoring (PMU) events that each CPU model/family of the architecture
supports.

Following is an example of the JSON file entry for an x86 event:

    	[
    	...
    	{
    	"EventCode": "0x00",
    	"UMask": "0x01",
    	"EventName": "INST_RETIRED.ANY",
    	"BriefDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.",
    	"PublicDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.",
    	"Counter": "Fixed counter 1",
    	"CounterHTOff": "Fixed counter 1",
    	"SampleAfterValue": "2000003",
    	"SampleAfterValue": "2000003",
    	"MSRIndex": "0",
    	"MSRValue": "0",
    	"TakenAlone": "0",
    	"CounterMask": "0",
    	"Invert": "0",
    	"AnyThread": "0",
    	"EdgeDetect": "0",
    	"PEBS": "0",
    	"PRECISE_STORE": "0",
    	"Errata": "null",
    	"Offcore": "0"
    	},
    	...

    	]

All the PMU events supported by a CPU model/family must be grouped into
"topics" such as "Piplelining", "Floating-point", "Virtual-memory" etc.

All events belonging to a topic must be placed in a separate JSON file
(eg: "Pipeling.json") and all the topic JSON files for a CPU model must
be in a separate directory.

	Eg: for the CPU model "Silvermont_core":

    	$ ls tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core
    	Floating-point.json
    	Memory.json
    	Other.json
    	Pipelining.json
    	Virtualmemory.json

Finally, to allow multiple CPU models to share a single set of JSON files,
architectures must provide a mapping between a model and its set of events:

    	$ grep Silvermont tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/mapfile.csv
    	GenuineIntel-6-4D,V13,Silvermont_core,core
    	GenuineIntel-6-4C,V13,Silvermont_core,core

which maps each CPU, identified by [vendor, family, model, version, type]
to a directory of JSON files. Thus two (or more) CPU models support the
set of PMU events listed in the directory.

    	tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core/

Given this organization of files, the program, jevents:

	- locates all JSON files for each CPU-model of the architecture,

	- parses all JSON files for the CPU-model and generates a C-style
	  "PMU-events table" (pmu-events.c) for the model

	- locates a mapfile for the architecture

	- builds a global table, mapping each model of CPU to the corresponding
	  PMU-events table.

The 'pmu-events.c' is generated when building perf and added to libperf.a.
The global table pmu_events_map[] table in this pmu-events.c will be used
in perf in a follow-on patch.

If the architecture does not have any JSON files or there is an error in
processing them, an empty mapping file is created. This would allow the
build of perf to proceed even if we are not able to provide aliases for
events.

The parser for JSON files allows parsing Intel style JSON event files. This
allows to use an Intel event list directly with perf. The Intel event lists
can be quite large and are too big to store in unswappable kernel memory.

The conversion from JSON to C-style is straight forward.  The parser knows
(very little) Intel specific information, and can be easily extended to
handle fields for other CPUs.

The parser code is partially shared with an independent parsing library,
which is 2-clause BSD licenced. To avoid any conflicts I marked those
files as BSD licenced too. As part of perf they become GPLv2.

v2: Address review feedback. Rename option to --event-files
v3: Add JSON example
v4: Update manpages.
v5: Don't remove dot in fixname. Fix compile error. Add include
	protection. Comment realloc.
v6: Include debug/util.h
v7: (Sukadev Bhattiprolu)
	Rebase to 4.0 and fix some conflicts.
v8: (Sukadev Bhattiprolu)
	Move jevents.[hc] to tools/perf/pmu-events/
	Rewrite to locate and process arch specific JSON and "map" files;
	and generate a C file.
	(Removed acked-by Namhyung Kim due to modest changes to patch)
	Compile the generated pmu-events.c and add the pmu-events.o to
	libperf.a
v9: [Sukadev Bhattiprolu/Andi Kleen] Rename ->vfm to ->cpuid and use
	that field to encode the PVR in Power.
	Allow blank lines in mapfile.
	[Jiri Olsa] Pass ARCH as a parameter to jevents so we don't have
	to detect it.
	[Jiri Olsa] Use the infrastrastructure to build pmu-events/perf
	(Makefile changes from Jiri included in this patch).
	[Jiri Olsa, Andi Kleen] Detect changes to JSON files and rebuild
	pmu-events.o only if necessary.

v11: 	- [Andi Kleen] Add mapfile, jevents dependency on pmu-events.c
	- [Jiri Olsa] Be silient if arch doesn't have JSON files
	- Also silence 'jevents' when parsing JSON files unless V=1 is
	  specified during build. Cleanup error messages.

v14:-	- [Jiri Olsa] Fix compile error with DEBUG=1; drop unlink() and
	  use "w" mode with fopen(); simplify file_name_to_table_name()

v15:	- Fix minor conflict in tools/perf/Makefile.perf when rebasing
	  to recent perf/core.

v16:	- Rebase to upstream; fix conflicts in tools/perf/Makefile.perf

v18:	- Rebase to upstream; fix conflicts in tools/perf/Makefile.perf

v20: 	- Rebase to upstream; rename a local variable to 'ldirname' to avoid
	  collision with the dirname().

v21:	- Breakup the large JSON files into separate topics like
	  Pipelining.json, Cache.json etc (by Jiri Olsa).
	- Ensure BriefDescription field is non-null before adding extra
	  description for PEBS events.

Subject[PATCH v21 11/19] perf, tools: Add alias support for long descriptions
Message-ID<shNkl-4te-27@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1484582
Previously we were dropping the useful longer descriptions that some
events have in the event list completely. Now that jevents provides
support for longer descriptions (see previous patch), add support for
parsing the long descriptions

#1484589 — [PATCH v21 01/19] perf, tools: Add jsmn `jasmine' JSON parser

FromSukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Date2016-09-16 00:30 +0200
Subject[PATCH v21 01/19] perf, tools: Add jsmn `jasmine' JSON parser
Message-ID<shNkm-4te-43@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1484582
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

I need a JSON parser. This adds the simplest JSON
parser I could find -- Serge Zaitsev's jsmn `jasmine' --
to the perf library. I merely converted it to (mostly)
Linux style and added support for non 0 terminated input.

The parser is quite straight forward and does not
copy any data, just returns tokens with offsets
into the input buffer. So it's relatively efficient
and simple to use.

The code is not fully checkpatch clean, but I didn't
want to completely fork the upstream code.

Original source: http://zserge.bitbucket.org/jsmn.html

In addition I added a simple wrapper that mmaps a json
file and provides some straight forward access functions.

Used in follow-on patches to parse event files.

v2: Address review feedback.
v3: Minor checkpatch fixes.
v4 (by Sukadev Bhattiprolu)
	- Rebase to 4.0 and fix minor conflicts in tools/perf/Makefile.perf
	- Report error if specified events file is invalid.
v5 (Sukadev Bhattiprolu)
	- Move files to tools/perf/pmu-events/ since parsing of JSON file
	now occurs when _building_ rather than running perf.

#1484591 — [PATCH v21 12/19] perf, tools: Support long descriptions with perf list

FromSukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Date2016-09-16 00:30 +0200
Subject[PATCH v21 12/19] perf, tools: Support long descriptions with perf list
Message-ID<shNkm-4te-45@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1484582
Previously we were dropping the useful longer descriptions that some
events have in the event list completely. This patch makes them appear with
perf list.

Old perf list:

baclears:
  baclears.all
       [Counts the number of baclears]

vs new:

perf list -v:
...
baclears:
  baclears.all
       [The BACLEARS event counts the number of times the front end is
        resteered, mainly when the Branch Prediction Unit cannot provide
	a correct prediction and this is corrected by the Branch Address
	Calculator at the front end. The BACLEARS.ANY event counts the
        number of baclears for any type of branch]

Implement support in jevents to parse long descriptions for events
that may have them in the JSON files. A follow on patch will make this
long description available to user through the 'perf list' command.

#1484593 — [PATCH v21 08/19] perf, tools: Add a --no-desc flag to perf list

FromSukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Date2016-09-16 00:30 +0200
Subject[PATCH v21 08/19] perf, tools: Add a --no-desc flag to perf list
Message-ID<shNkm-4te-39@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1484582
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

Add a --no-desc flag to perf list to not print the event descriptions
that were earlier added for JSON events. This may be useful to
get a less crowded listing.

It's still default to print descriptions as that is the more useful
default for most users.

v2: Rename --quiet to --no-desc. Add option to man page.

v18: Fix minor conflict in tools/perf/builtin-list.c; Add !desc_flag
	to the newly introduced print_pmu_events() call site.

So, trying to build this with my set of containers I get lots of failures,
double checking running on another machine with those containers for the
segfault cases, changing sys/fcntl.h to fcntl.h cures the build on alpine:3.4
(musl libc), will try to fix all of them.

The list is incomplete, lots of other systems failed as well.

Fixed with fcntl.h + capping the maxfds parameter to nftw to avoid it
exploding on alloca() in environments where rlim_max is set to a high
value, like in docker.

Now looking at:

  CC       /tmp/build/perf/fs/tracing_path.o
In file included from /git/linux/tools/include/linux/types.h:4:0,
                 from /opt/android-ndk-r12b/platforms/android-24/arch-arm/usr/include/sys/types.h:35,

pmu-events/json.h:15:22: error: two or more data types in declaration specifiers
 typedef unsigned int bool;


Which looks like clashing with stdbool.h...

yeah, changing that typedef + true def to plain include <stdbool.h>
makes it progress to the next failure, which is in cross compilation
environments, such as using fedora 24 + the Android NDK to try to build
a ARM android binary.

On the bright side, in addition to alpine:3.4 now these are building ok:

 3 archlinux:latest: Ok
 4 centos:5: Ok
 5 centos:6: Ok
 6 centos:7: Ok
 7 debian:7: Ok
 8 debian:8: Ok
 9 fedora:20: Ok

Waiting for some extra cross compilation envs to check that hunch...

Jiri, we need something similar to scripts/Makefile.host :-\

Calling it a day, perhaps, for now, we should just detect that it is a
corss compile env (CROSS_COMPILE is set) and exclude all this code from
the build, emitting a warning.

I left what I did at the tmp.perf/core branch of my repo at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux.git.

as discussed on irc we will disable it for cross builds now,
because we dont have good solution at the moment.. it's
similar case as for fixdep tool:

    3a70fcd3a4db tools build: Fix cross compile build
    ...
    We need to add support for host side tools build, meanwhile
    disabling fixdep usage for cross arch builds.

I'll make a change to disable this for crossbuild and
work on common solution later

thanks,
jirka
