[ Upstream commit 6bbfe4e602691b90ac866712bd4c43c51e546a60 ]

Michael reported an issue with perf bench numa failing with binding to
cpu0 with '-0' option.

  # perf bench numa mem -p 3 -t 1 -P 512 -s 100 -zZcm0 --thp 1 -M 1 -ddd
  # Running 'numa/mem' benchmark:

   # Running main, "perf bench numa numa-mem -p 3 -t 1 -P 512 -s 100 -zZcm0 --thp 1 -M 1 -ddd"
  binding to node 0, mask: 0000000000000001 =&gt; -1
  perf: bench/numa.c:356: bind_to_memnode: Assertion `!(ret)' failed.
  Aborted (core dumped)

This happens when the cpu0 is not part of node0, which is the benchmark
assumption and we can see that's not the case for some powerpc servers.

Using correct node for cpu0 binding.

<title>perf bench numa: Add define for RUSAGE_THREAD if not present</title>

While cross building perf to the ARC architecture on a fedora 30 host,
we were failing with:

      CC       /tmp/build/perf/bench/numa.o
  bench/numa.c: In function ‘worker_thread’:
  bench/numa.c:1261:12: error: ‘RUSAGE_THREAD’ undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean ‘SIGEV_THREAD’?
    getrusage(RUSAGE_THREAD, &amp;rusage);
              ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
              SIGEV_THREAD
  bench/numa.c:1261:12: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in

arc-linux-gcc (ARCv2 ISA Linux uClibc toolchain 2019.03-rc1) 8.3.1 20190225
[perfbuilder@60d5802468f6 perf]$

Trying to reproduce a report by Vineet, I noticed that, with just
cross-built zlib and numactl libraries, I ended up with the above
failure.

So, since RUSAGE_THREAD is available as a define, check for that and
numactl libraries, I ended up with the above failure.

So, since RUSAGE_THREAD is available as a define in the system headers,
check if it is defined in the 'perf bench numa' sources and define it if
not.

Now it builds and I have to figure out if the problem reported by Vineet
only takes place if we have libelf or some other library available.

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo:

BPF:

  Song Liu:

  - Add support for annotating BPF programs, using the PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT
    and PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL recently added to the kernel and plugging
    binutils's libopcodes disassembly of BPF programs with the existing
    annotation interfaces in 'perf annotate', 'perf report' and 'perf top'
    various output formats (--stdio, --stdio2, --tui).

perf list:

  Andi Kleen:

  - Filter metrics when using substring search.

perf record:

  Andi Kleen:

  - Allow to limit number of reported perf.data files

  - Clarify help for --switch-output.

perf report:

  Andi Kleen

  - Indicate JITed code better.

  - Show all sort keys in help output.

perf script:

  Andi Kleen:

  - Support relative time.

perf stat:

  Andi Kleen:

  - Improve scaling.

General:

  Changbin Du:

  - Fix some mostly error path memory and reference count leaks found
    using gcc's ASan and UBSan.

Vendor events:

  Mamatha Inamdar:

  - Remove P8 HW events which are not supported.

This replaces all open encodings in tools with NUMA_NO_NODE.  Also
linux/numa.h is now needed for the perf build.

<title>perf bench: Add epoll_ctl(2) benchmark</title>

<id>231457ec707475c71d4e538a3253f1ed9e294cf0</id>
<content type='text'>
Benchmark the various operations allowed for epoll_ctl(2).  The idea is
to concurrently stress a single epoll instance doing add/mod/del
operations.

Committer testing:

  # perf bench epoll ctl
  # Running 'epoll/ctl' benchmark:
  Run summary [PID 20344]: 4 threads doing epoll_ctl ops 64 file-descriptors for 8 secs.

  [thread  0] fdmap: 0x21a46b0 ... 0x21a47ac [ add: 1680960 ops; mod: 1680960 ops; del: 1680960 ops ]

  Averaged 1679584 MOD operations (+- 0.14%)
  Averaged 1679584 DEL operations (+- 0.14%)
  #

Lets measure those calls with 'perf trace' to get a glympse at what this
benchmark is doing in terms of syscalls:

  # perf trace -m32768 -s perf bench epoll ctl
  # Running 'epoll/ctl' benchmark:

Benchmark the various operations allowed for epoll_ctl(2).  The idea is
to concurrently stress a single epoll instance doing add/mod/del
operations.

<title>perf bench: Add epoll parallel epoll_wait benchmark</title>

This program benchmarks concurrent epoll_wait(2) for file descriptors
that are monitored with with EPOLLIN along various semantics, by a
single epoll instance. Such conditions can be found when using
single/combined or multiple queuing when load balancing.

Each thread has a number of private, nonblocking file descriptors,
referred to as fdmap. A writer thread will constantly be writing to the
fdmaps of all threads, minimizing each threads's chances of epoll_wait
not finding any ready read events and blocking as this is not what we
want to stress. Full details in the start of the C file.

<title>tools arch: Update arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S copy used in 'perf bench mem memcpy'</title>

<id>1f27a050fc679d16e68a40e0bb575364a89fad66</id>
<content type='text'>
To cope with the changes in:

  12c89130a56a ("x86/asm/memcpy_mcsafe: Add write-protection-fault handling")
  60622d68227d ("x86/asm/memcpy_mcsafe: Return bytes remaining")
  bd131544aa7e ("x86/asm/memcpy_mcsafe: Add labels for __memcpy_mcsafe() write fault handling")
  da7bc9c57eb0 ("x86/asm/memcpy_mcsafe: Remove loop unrolling")

This needed introducing a file with a copy of the mcsafe_handle_tail()
function, that is used in the new memcpy_64.S file, as well as a dummy
mcsafe_test.h header.

Testing it:

  $ nm ~/bin/perf | grep mcsafe
  0000000000484130 T mcsafe_handle_tail
  0000000000484300 T __memcpy_mcsafe
  $
  $ perf bench mem memcpy
  # Running 'mem/memcpy' benchmark:
  # function 'default' (Default memcpy() provided by glibc)
  # Copying 1MB bytes ...

      44.389205 GB/sec
  # function 'x86-64-unrolled' (unrolled memcpy() in arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S)
  # Copying 1MB bytes ...

      22.710756 GB/sec
  # function 'x86-64-movsq' (movsq-based memcpy() in arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S)
  # Copying 1MB bytes ...

      42.459239 GB/sec
  # function 'x86-64-movsb' (movsb-based memcpy() in arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S)
  # Copying 1MB bytes ...

      42.459239 GB/sec
  $

This silences this perf tools build warning:

Currently we can hit following assert when running numa bench:

  $ perf bench numa mem -p 3 -t 1 -P 512 -s 100 -zZ0cm --thp 1
  perf: bench/numa.c:1577: __bench_numa: Assertion `!(!(((wait_stat) &amp; 0x7f) == 0))' failed.

The assertion is correct, because we hit the SIGFPE in following line:

  Thread 2.2 "thread 0/0" received signal SIGFPE, Arithmetic exception.
  [Switching to Thread 0x7fffd28c6700 (LWP 11750)]
  0x000.. in worker_thread (__tdata=0x7.. ) at bench/numa.c:1257
  1257 td-&gt;speed_gbs = bytes_done / (td-&gt;runtime_ns / NSEC_PER_SEC) / 1e9;

We don't check if the runtime is actually bigger than 1 second,
and thus this might end up with zero division within FPU.

Adding the check to prevent this.
