Currently we support only static linking with kernel's libtraceevent (tools/lib/traceevent). This patch adds libtraceevent package detection and support to link perf with it dynamically. The libtraceevent package status is displayed with: $ make VF=1 LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC=1 ... ... libtraceevent: [ on ] Default behavior remains the same (static linking). Committer testing: $ make LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC=1 VF=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin |& grep traceevent Makefile.config:1090: *** Error: No libtraceevent devel library found, please install libtraceevent-devel.

Pull perf tool updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
"New features:
- Support instruction latency in 'perf report', with both memory
latency (weight) and instruction latency information, users can
locate expensive load instructions and understand time spent in
different stages.
- Extend 'perf c2c' to display the number of loads which were blocked
by data or address conflict.
- Add 'perf stat' support for L2 topdown events in systems such as
Intel's Sapphire rapids server.
- Add support for PERF_SAMPLE_CODE_PAGE_SIZE in various tools, as a
sort key, for instance:
perf report --stdio --sort=comm,symbol,code_page_size
- New 'perf daemon' command to run long running sessions while
providing a way to control the enablement of events without
restarting a traditional 'perf record' session.
- Enable counting events for BPF programs in 'perf stat' just like
for other targets (tid, cgroup, cpu, etc), e.g.:
# perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles -b 254 -I 1000
1.487903822 115,200 ref-cycles
1.487903822 86,012 cycles
2.489147029 80,560 ref-cycles
2.489147029 73,784 cycles
^C
The example above counts 'cycles' and 'ref-cycles' of BPF program
of id 254. It is similar to bpftool-prog-profile command, but more
flexible.
- Support the new layout for PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 to carry the DSO
build-id using infrastructure generalised from the eBPF subsystem,
removing the need for traversing the perf.data file to collect
build-ids at the end of 'perf record' sessions and helping with
long running sessions where binaries can get replaced in updates,
leading to possible mis-resolution of symbols.
- Support filtering by hex address in 'perf script'.
- Support DSO filter in 'perf script', like in other perf tools.
- Add namespaces support to 'perf inject'
- Add support for SDT (Dtrace Style Markers) events on ARM64.
perf record:
- Fix handling of eventfd() when draining a buffer in 'perf record'.
- Improvements to the generation of metadata events for pre-existing
threads (mmaps, comm, etc), speeding up the work done at the start
of system wide or per CPU 'perf record' sessions.
Hardware tracing:
- Initial support for tracing KVM with Intel PT.
- Intel PT fixes for IPC
- Support Intel PT PSB (synchronization packets) events.
- Automatically group aux-output events to overcome --filter syntax.
- Enable PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_SRC on ARMs SPE.
- Update ARM's CoreSight hardware tracing OpenCSD library to v1.0.0.
perf annotate TUI:
- Fix handling of 'k' ("show line number") hotkey
- Fix jump parsing for C++ code.
perf probe:
- Add protection to avoid endless loop.
cgroups:
- Avoid reading cgroup mountpoint multiple times, caching it.
- Fix handling of cgroup v1/v2 in mixed hierarchy.
Symbol resolving:
- Add OCaml symbol demangling.
- Further fixes for handling PE executables when using perf with Wine
and .exe/.dll files.
- Fix 'perf unwind' DSO handling.
- Resolve symbols against debug file first, to deal with artifacts
related to LTO.
- Fix gap between kernel end and module start on powerpc.
Reporting tools:
- The DSO filter shouldn't show samples in unresolved maps.
- Improve debuginfod support in various tools.
build ids:
- Fix 16-byte build ids in 'perf buildid-cache', add a 'perf test'
entry for that case.
perf test:
- Support for PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT.
- Add test case for PERF_SAMPLE_CODE_PAGE_SIZE.
- Shell based tests for 'perf daemon's commands ('start', 'stop,
'reconfig', 'list', etc).
- ARM cs-etm 'perf test' fixes.
- Add parse-metric memory bandwidth testcase.
Compiler related:
- Fix 'perf probe' kretprobe issue caused by gcc 11 bug when used
with -fpatchable-function-entry.
- Fix ARM64 build with gcc 11's -Wformat-overflow.
- Fix unaligned access in sample parsing test.
- Fix printf conversion specifier for IP addresses on arm64, s390 and
powerpc.
Arch specific:
- Support exposing Performance Monitor Counter SPRs as part of
extended regs on powerpc.
- Add JSON 'perf stat' metrics for ARM64's imx8mp, imx8mq and imx8mn
DDR, fix imx8mm ones.
- Fix common and uarch events for ARM64's A76 and Ampere eMag"

When dealing with BPF/BTF/pahole and DWARF v5 I wanted to build bpftool.
While looking into the source code I found duplicate assignments in misc tools
for the LLVM eco system, e.g. clang and llvm-objcopy.
Move the Clang, LLC and/or LLVM utils definitions to tools/scripts/Makefile.include
file and add missing includes where needed. Honestly, I was inspired by the commit
c8a950d0d3b9 ("tools: Factor HOSTCC, HOSTLD, HOSTAR definitions").
I tested with bpftool and perf on Debian/testing AMD64 and LLVM/Clang v11.1.0-rc1.
Build instructions:
[ make and make-options ]
MAKE="make V=1"
MAKE_OPTS="HOSTCC=clang HOSTCXX=clang++ HOSTLD=ld.lld CC=clang LD=ld.lld LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1"
MAKE_OPTS="$MAKE_OPTS PAHOLE=/opt/pahole/bin/pahole"
[ clean-up ]
$MAKE $MAKE_OPTS -C tools/ clean
[ bpftool ]
$MAKE $MAKE_OPTS -C tools/bpf/bpftool/
[ perf ]
PYTHON=python3 $MAKE $MAKE_OPTS -C tools/perf/
I was careful with respecting the user's wish to override custom compiler, linker,
GNU/binutils and/or LLVM utils settings.

Replace the OCSD_INSTR switch statement with an if to fix compilation error about unhandled values and avoid this issue again in the future. Add new OCSD_GEN_TRC_ELEM_SYNC_MARKER and OCSD_GEN_TRC_ELEM_MEMTRANS enum values to fix unhandled value compilation error. Currently they are ignored. Increase the minimum version number to v1.0.0 now that new enum values are used that are only present in this version.

We were failing that due to GTK2+ and then for the ZSTD test, which made
test-all.c, the fast path feature detection file to fail and thus
trigger building all of the feature tests, slowing down the test.
Eventually the ZSTD test would be built and would succeed, since it had
the needed -lzstd, avoiding:
$ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccRRJQ4u.o: in function `main_test_libzstd':
/home/acme/git/perf/tools/build/feature/test-libzstd.c:8: undefined reference to `ZSTD_createCStream'
/usr/bin/ld: /home/acme/git/perf/tools/build/feature/test-libzstd.c:9: undefined reference to `ZSTD_freeCStream'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
$
Fix it by adding -lzstd to the test-all target.
Now I need an entry to 'perf test' to make sure that
/tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output is empty...
