perf parse-events: Fixes relating to no_value terms

2023-09-02T11:12:15+00:00

A term may have no value in which case it is assumed to have a value
of 1. It doesn't just apply to alias/event terms so change the
parse_events_term__to_strbuf assert.

Commit 99e7138eb7897aa0 ("perf tools: Fail on using multiple bits long
terms without value") made it so that no_value terms could only be for a
single bit. Prior to commit 64199ae4b8a3 ("perf parse-events: Fix
propagation of term's no_value when cloning") this missed a test case
where config1 had no_value.

perf metric: Add #num_cpus_online literal

2023-08-31T02:03:03+00:00

Returns the number of CPUs online, unlike #num_cpus that returns the
number present.

Add a test of the property.

This will be used in future Intel metrics.

perf jevents: Use "default_core" for events with no Unit

2023-08-29T17:16:15+00:00

The JSON Unit field encodes the name of the PMU to match the events
to. When no name is given it has meant the "cpu" core PMU except for
tests.

On ARM, Intel hybrid and s390 the core PMU is named differently which
means that using "cpu" for this case causes the events not to get
matched to the PMU.

Introduce a new "default_core" string for this case and in the
pmu__name_match force all core PMUs to match this name.

perf test stat_bpf_counters_cgrp: Enhance perf stat cgroup BPF counter test

2023-08-29T17:16:15+00:00

It has system-wide test and cpu-list test but the cpu-list test fails
sometimes.  It runs sleep command on CPU1 and measure both user.slice
and system.slice cgroups by default (on systemd-based systems).

But if the system was idle enough, sometime the system.slice gets no
count and it makes the test failing.  Maybe that's because it only looks
at the CPU1, let's add CPU0 to increase the chance it finds some tasks.

perf test shell stat_bpf_counters: Fix test on Intel

2023-08-29T17:16:14+00:00

As of now, bpf counters (bperf) don't support event groups.  But the
default perf stat includes topdown metrics if supported (on recent Intel
machines) which require groups.  That makes perf stat exiting.

  $ sudo perf stat --bpf-counter true
  bpf managed perf events do not yet support groups.

Actually the test explicitly uses cycles event only, but it missed to
pass the option when it checks the availability of the command.

perf test shell record_bpf_filter: Skip 6.2 kernel

2023-08-29T17:16:14+00:00

The BPF sample filtering requires two kernel changes below:

 * bpf_cast_to_kernel_ctx() kfunc (added in v6.2)

 * setting perf_sample_data->sample_flags (finished in v6.3)

The perf tools can check bpf_cast_to_kernel_ctx() easily so it can
refuse BPF filters on those old kernels (v6.1 and earlier).

But checking sample_flags appears to be difficult so current code won't
work on v6.2 kernel.  That's unfortunate but I don't know what's the
correct way to handle it.

For now, let's skip v6.2 kernels explicitly (if failed) in the test.

perf pmu: Make id const and add missing free

2023-08-25T13:23:34+00:00

The struct pmu id is initialized from pmu_id that is read into allocated
memory from a file, as such it needs free-ing in pmu__delete().

Make the id value const so that we can remove casts in tests.

perf pmu: Remove logic for PMU name being NULL

2023-08-25T13:22:16+00:00

The PMU name could be NULL in the case of the fake_pmu. Initialize the
name for the fake_pmu to "fake" so that all other logic can assume it
is initialized. Add a const to the type of name so that a literal can
be used to avoid additional initialization code. Propagate the cost
through related routines and remove now unnecessary "(char *)"
casts. Doing this located a bug in builtin-list for the pmu_glob that
was missing a strdup.

perf jevents: Don't append Unit to desc

2023-08-24T22:21:27+00:00

Unit with the PMU name is appended to desc in jevents.py, but on
hybrid platforms it causes the desc to differ from the regular
non-hybrid system with a PMU of 'cpu'. Having differing descs means
the events don't deduplicate. To make the perf list output not differ,
append the Unit on again in the perf list printing code.

On x86 reduces the binary size by 409,600 bytes or about 4%. Update
pmu-events test expectations to match the differently generated
pmu-events.c code.
