[ Upstream commit ffd856537b95dd65facb4e0c78ca1cb92c2048ff ]

When building perf with BPF skels we either copy the minimalistic
tools/perf/util/bpf_skel/vmlinux/vmlinux.h or use bpftool to generate a
vmlinux from BTF, storing the result in $(SKEL_OUT)/vmlinux.h.

We need to remove that when doing a 'make -C tools/perf clean', fix it.

The perf build failed due to the shellcheck on my machine (v0.4.6 on Ubuntu
18.04.1 LTS) doesn't support -a/--check-sourced and -S/--severity option.

These two options are introduced in shellcheck v0.4.7 and v0.6.0
respectively. So restrict the minimal version of shellcheck to v0.6.0.

Migrate Makefile.tests to Build so that variables like rule_mkdir are
defined via Makefile.build (needed so the output directory can be
created). This requires SHELLCHECK being exported and the clean rule
tweaking to remove the files in find.

Change find "-perm -o=x" as it was failing on my Debian based Linux
kernel tree, switch to using "-executable".

Adding a filename prefix of "." to the shellcheck log files is a pain
and error prone in make, remove this prefix and just add the
shellcheck log files to .gitignore.

Fix the command echo so that running the test is displayed.

<id>1638b11ef8156c8551f5aaa5799069633593c5fe</id>
<content type='text'>
Add rule in new Makefile "tests/Makefile.tests" for running shellcheck
on shell test scripts. This automates below shellcheck into the build.

	$ for F in $(find tests/shell/ -perm -o=x -name '*.sh'); do shellcheck -S warning $F; done

Condition for shellcheck is added in Makefile.perf to avoid build
breakage in the absence of shellcheck binary. Update Makefile.perf to
contain new rule for "SHELLCHECK_TEST" which is for making shellcheck
test as a dependency on perf binary.

Added "tests/Makefile.tests" to run shellcheck on shellscripts in
tests/shell. The make rule "SHLLCHECK_RUN" ensures that, every time
during make, shellcheck will be run only on modified files during
subsequent invocations. By this, if any newly added shell scripts or
fixes in existing scripts breaks coding/formatting style, it will get
captured during the perf build.

Example build failure by modifying probe_vfs_getname.sh in tests/shell:

	In tests/shell/probe_vfs_getname.sh line 8:
	. $(dirname $0)/lib/probe.sh
	  ^-----------^ SC2046 (warning): Quote this to prevent word splitting.

	For more information:
	  https://www.shellcheck.net/wiki/SC2046 -- Quote this to prevent word splitt...
	make[3]: *** [/root/athira/perf-tools-next/tools/perf/tests/Makefile.tests:18: tests/shell/.probe_vfs_getname.sh.shellcheck_log] Error 1
	make[2]: *** [Makefile.perf:686: SHELLCHECK_TEST] Error 2
	make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
	make[1]: *** [Makefile.perf:244: sub-make] Error 2
	make: *** [Makefile:70: all] Error 2

Here, like other files which gets created during compilation (ex:
.builtin-bench.o.cmd or .perf.o.cmd ), create .shellcheck_log also as a
hidden file.  Example: tests/shell/.probe_vfs_getname.sh.shellcheck_log
shellcheck is re-run if any of the script gets modified based on its
dependency of this log file.

After this, for testing, changed "tests/shell/trace+probe_vfs_getname.sh" to
break shellcheck format. In the next make run, it is also captured:

	In tests/shell/probe_vfs_getname.sh line 8:
	. $(dirname $0)/lib/probe.sh
	  ^-----------^ SC2046 (warning): Quote this to prevent word splitting.

	For more information:

	make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

	In tests/shell/trace+probe_vfs_getname.sh line 14:
	. $(dirname $0)/lib/probe.sh
	  ^-----------^ SC2046 (warning): Quote this to prevent word splitting.

	make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
	make[1]: *** [Makefile.perf:244: sub-make] Error 2
	make: *** [Makefile:70: all] Error 2

Failure log can be found in the stdout of make itself.

This is reported at build time. To be able to go ahead with the build or
disable shellcheck even though it is known that some test is broken, add
a "NO_SHELLCHECK" option. Example:

  make NO_SHELLCHECK=1

	  INSTALL libsubcmd_headers
	  INSTALL libsymbol_headers
	  INSTALL libapi_headers
	  INSTALL libperf_headers
	  INSTALL libbpf_headers
	  LINK    perf

Note:

This is tested on RHEL and also SLES. Use below check:
"$(shell which shellcheck 2&gt; /dev/null)" to look for presence
of shellcheck binary. The approach "shell command -v" is not
used here. In some of the distros(RHEL), command is available
as executable file (/usr/bin/command). But in some distros(SLES),
it is a shell builtin and not available as executable file.

Currently the sysreg-defs are written out to the source tree
unconditionally, ignoring the specified output directory. Correct the
build rule to emit the header to the output directory. Opportunistically
reorganize the rules to avoid interleaving with the set of beauty make
rules.

Pull perf tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
 "Build:

   - Compile BPF programs by default if clang (&gt;= 12.0.1) is available
     to enable more features like kernel lock contention, off-cpu
     profiling, kwork, sample filtering and so on.

     This can be disabled by passing BUILD_BPF_SKEL=0 to make.

   - Produce better error messages for bison on debug build (make
     DEBUG=1) by defining YYDEBUG symbol internally.

  perf record:

   - Track sideband events (like FORK/MMAP) from all CPUs even if perf
     record targets a subset of CPUs only (using -C option). Otherwise
     it may lose some information happened on a CPU out of the target
     list.

   - Fix checking raw sched_switch tracepoint argument using system BTF.
     This affects off-cpu profiling which attaches a BPF program to the
     raw tracepoint.

  perf lock contention:

   - Add --lock-cgroup option to see contention by cgroups. This should
     be used with BPF only (using -b option).

       $ sudo perf lock con -ab --lock-cgroup -- sleep 1
        contended   total wait     max wait     avg wait   cgroup

              835     14.06 ms     41.19 us     16.83 us   /system.slice/led.service
               25    122.38 us     13.77 us      4.89 us   /
               44     23.73 us      3.87 us       539 ns   /user.slice/user-657345.slice/session-c4.scope
                1       491 ns       491 ns       491 ns   /system.slice/connectd.service

   - Add -G/--cgroup-filter option to see contention only for given
     cgroups.

     This can be useful when you identified a cgroup in the above
     command and want to investigate more on it. It also works with
     other output options like -t/--threads and -l/--lock-addr.

       $ sudo perf lock con -ab -G /user.slice/user-657345.slice/session-c4.scope -- sleep 1
        contended   total wait     max wait     avg wait         type   caller

                8     77.11 us     17.98 us      9.64 us     spinlock   futex_wake+0xc8
                2     24.56 us     14.66 us     12.28 us     spinlock   tick_do_update_jiffies64+0x25
                1      4.97 us      4.97 us      4.97 us     spinlock   futex_q_lock+0x2a

   - Use per-cpu array for better spinlock tracking. This is to improve
     performance of the BPF program and to avoid nested contention on a
     lock in the BPF hash map.

   - Update callstack check for PowerPC. To find a representative caller
     of a lock, it needs to look up the call stacks. It ends the lookup
     when it sees 0 in the call stack buffer. However, PowerPC call
     stacks can have 0 values in the beginning so skip them when it
     expects valid call stacks after.

  perf kwork:

   - Support 'sched' class (for -k option) so that it can see task
     scheduling event (using sched_switch tracepoint) as well as irq and
     workqueue items.

   - Add perf kwork top subcommand to show more accurate cpu utilization
     with sched class above. It works both with a recorded data (using
     perf kwork record command) and BPF (using -b option). Unlike perf
     top command, it does not support interactive mode (yet).

       $ sudo perf kwork top -b -k sched
       Starting trace, Hit &lt;Ctrl+C&gt; to stop and report

       &lt;SNIP&gt;

   - Add hard/soft-irq statistics to perf kwork top. This will show the
     total CPU utilization with IRQ stats like below:

       $ sudo perf kwork top -b -k sched,irq,softirq
       Starting trace, Hit &lt;Ctrl+C&gt; to stop and report
       ^C
       Total  :  12554.889 ms, 8 cpus

       %Cpu1   [|                                4.59%]
       %Cpu2   [                                 2.73%]
       %Cpu3   [|                                3.81%]
       &lt;SNIP&gt;

  perf bench:

   - Add -G/--cgroups option to perf bench sched pipe. The pipe bench is
     good to measure context switch overhead. With this option, it puts
     the reader and writer tasks in separate cgroups to enforce context
     switch between two different cgroups.

     Also it needs to set CPU affinity of the tasks in a CPU to
     accurately measure the impact of cgroup context switches.

       $ sudo perf stat -e context-switches,cgroup-switches -- \
       &gt; taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000
       # Running 'sched/pipe' benchmark:
       # Executed 100000 pipe operations between two processes

            Total time: 0.307 [sec]

              3.078180 usecs/op
                324867 ops/sec

        Performance counter stats for 'taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000':

                  200,026      context-switches
                       63      cgroup-switches

              0.321637922 seconds time elapsed

     You can see small number of cgroup-switches because both write and
     read tasks are in the same cgroup.

       $ sudo mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/{AAA,BBB}

       $ sudo perf stat -e context-switches,cgroup-switches -- \
       &gt; taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000 -G AAA,BBB
       # Running 'sched/pipe' benchmark:
       # Executed 100000 pipe operations between two processes

            Total time: 0.351 [sec]

              3.512990 usecs/op
                284657 ops/sec

        Performance counter stats for 'taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000 -G AAA,BBB':

                  200,020      context-switches
                  200,019      cgroup-switches

              0.365034567 seconds time elapsed

     Now context-switches and cgroup-switches are almost same. And you
     can see the pipe operation took little more.

   - Kill child processes when perf bench sched messaging exited
     abnormally. Otherwise it'd leave the child doing unnecessary work.

  perf test:

   - Fix various shellcheck issues on the tests written in shell script.

   - Skip tests when condition is not satisfied:
      - object code reading test for non-text section addresses.
      - CoreSight test if cs_etm// event is not available.
      - lock contention test if not enough CPUs.

  Event parsing:

   - Make PMU alias name loading lazy to reduce the startup time in the
     event parsing code for perf record, stat and others in the general
     case.

   - Lazily compute PMU default config. In the same sense, delay PMU
     initialization until it's really needed to reduce the startup cost.

   - Fix event term values that are raw events. The event specification
     can have several terms including event name. But sometimes it
     clashes with raw event encoding which starts with 'r' and has
     hex-digits.

     For example, an event named 'read' should be processed as a normal
     event but it was mis-treated as a raw encoding and caused a
     failure.

       $ perf stat -e 'uncore_imc_free_running/event=read/' -a sleep 1
       event syntax error: '..nning/event=read/'
                                         \___ parser error
       Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

        Usage: perf stat [&lt;options&gt;] [&lt;command&gt;]

           -e, --event &lt;event&gt; event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events

  Event metrics:

   - Add "Compat" regex to match event with multiple identifiers.

   - Usual updates for Intel, Power10, Arm telemetry/CMN and AmpereOne.

  Misc:

   - Assorted memory leak fixes and footprint reduction.

   - Add "bpf_skeletons" to perf version --build-options so that users
     can check whether their perf tools have BPF support easily.

   - Fix unaligned access in Intel-PT packet decoder found by
     undefined-behavior sanitizer.

   - Avoid frequency mode for the dummy event. Surprisingly it'd impact
     kernel timer tick handler performance by force iterating all PMU
     events.

   - Update bash shell completion for events and metrics"

     workqueue items.

   - Add perf kwork top subcommand to show more accurate cpu utilization
     with sched class above. It works both with a recorded data (using
     perf kwork record command) and BPF (using -b option). Unlike perf
     top command, it does not support interactive mode (yet).

       $ sudo perf kwork top -b -k sched

  perf bench:

   - Add -G/--cgroups option to perf bench sched pipe. The pipe bench is
     good to measure context switch overhead. With this option, it puts
     the reader and writer tasks in separate cgroups to enforce context
     switch between two different cgroups.

     Also it needs to set CPU affinity of the tasks in a CPU to
     accurately measure the impact of cgroup context switches.

       $ sudo perf stat -e context-switches,cgroup-switches -- \
       &gt; taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000
       # Running 'sched/pipe' benchmark:
       # Executed 100000 pipe operations between two processes

            Total time: 0.307 [sec]

              3.078180 usecs/op
                324867 ops/sec

        Performance counter stats for 'taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000':

                  200,026      context-switches
                       63      cgroup-switches

              0.321637922 seconds time elapsed

     You can see small number of cgroup-switches because both write and
     read tasks are in the same cgroup.

       $ sudo mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/{AAA,BBB}

       $ sudo perf stat -e context-switches,cgroup-switches -- \
       &gt; taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000 -G AAA,BBB
       # Running 'sched/pipe' benchmark:
       # Executed 100000 pipe operations between two processes

            Total time: 0.351 [sec]

              3.512990 usecs/op
                284657 ops/sec

        Performance counter stats for 'taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000 -G AAA,BBB':

                  200,020      context-switches
                  200,019      cgroup-switches

              0.365034567 seconds time elapsed

     Now context-switches and cgroup-switches are almost same. And you
     can see the pipe operation took little more.

   - Kill child processes when perf bench sched messaging exited
     abnormally. Otherwise it'd leave the child doing unnecessary work.

  perf test:

   - Fix various shellcheck issues on the tests written in shell script.

   - Skip tests when condition is not satisfied:
      - object code reading test for non-text section addresses.
      - CoreSight test if cs_etm// event is not available.
      - lock contention test if not enough CPUs.

  Event parsing:

   - Make PMU alias name loading lazy to reduce the startup time in the
     event parsing code for perf record, stat and others in the general
     case.

   - Lazily compute PMU default config. In the same sense, delay PMU
     initialization until it's really needed to reduce the startup cost.

   - Fix event term values that are raw events. The event specification
     can have several terms including event name. But sometimes it
     clashes with raw event encoding which starts with 'r' and has
     hex-digits.

     For example, an event named 'read' should be processed as a normal
     event but it was mis-treated as a raw encoding and caused a
     failure.

       $ perf stat -e 'uncore_imc_free_running/event=read/' -a sleep 1
       event syntax error: '..nning/event=read/'
                                         \___ parser error
       Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

        Usage: perf stat [&lt;options&gt;] [&lt;command&gt;]

           -e, --event &lt;event&gt; event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events

  Event metrics:

   - Add "Compat" regex to match event with multiple identifiers.

   - Usual updates for Intel, Power10, Arm telemetry/CMN and AmpereOne.

  Misc:

   - Assorted memory leak fixes and footprint reduction.

   - Add "bpf_skeletons" to perf version --build-options so that users
     can check whether their perf tools have BPF support easily.

   - Fix unaligned access in Intel-PT packet decoder found by
     undefined-behavior sanitizer.

   - Avoid frequency mode for the dummy event. Surprisingly it'd impact
     kernel timer tick handler performance by force iterating all PMU
     events.

   - Update bash shell completion for events and metrics"

To address this grep 3.8 warning:

  grep: warning: stray \ before #

We needed to remove the '' around the grep expression and keep the \
before # so that it is escaped by the $(shell grep ...) and thus doesn't
get to grep.

We need that \ before the #, otherwise we get this:

  Makefile.perf:364: *** unterminated call to function 'shell': missing ')'.  Stop.

As everything after the # will be considered a comment.

Removing the single quotes needs some more escaping so that _some_ of
the escaped chars gets to grep, like the '\|' that becomes '\\\|´.

Running on debian:10, where there is no libtraceevent-devel available,
we get:

By default perf will fail the build if the development files for
libtraceevent are not available.

To build perf without libtraceevent support, disabling several features
such as 'perf trace', one needs to add NO_LIBTRACEVENT=1 to the make
command line.

Add the missing comments about that to the tools/perf/Makefile.perf
file, just like all the other such command line toggles.

Fixes: 378ef0f5d9d7f465 ("perf build: Use libtraceevent from the system")
