There's no reason for making the test__arch_unwind_sample declaration per
arch. Currently that's done 2 different ways either with a declaration in
arch-tests.h or with an arch define. Unify all this with an unconditional
declaration in tests.h.

Detect symbols generated by the OCaml compiler based on their prefix.

Demangle OCaml symbols, returning a newly allocated string (like the
existing Java demangling functionality).

Move a helper function (hex) from tests/code-reading.c to util/string.c

To test:

  echo 'Printf.printf "%d\n" (Random.int 42)' &gt; test.ml
  perf record ocamlopt.opt test.ml
  perf report -d ocamlopt.opt

<title>perf test: Implement skip_reason callback for watchpoint tests</title>

<id>cc3b964d5eb49d0c9da08760f8760bb6945f1df5</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently reason for skipping the read only watchpoint test is only seen
when running in verbose mode:

  $ perf test watchpoint
  23: Watchpoint                                            :
  23.1: Read Only Watchpoint                                : Skip
  23.2: Write Only Watchpoint                               : Ok
  23.3: Read / Write Watchpoint                             : Ok
  23.4: Modify Watchpoint                                   : Ok

  $ perf test -v watchpoint
  23: Watchpoint                                            :
  23.1: Read Only Watchpoint                                :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 60204
  Hardware does not support read only watchpoints.
  test child finished with -2

Implement skip_reason callback for the watchpoint tests, so that it's
easy to see reason why the test is skipped:

  $ perf test watchpoint
  23: Watchpoint                                            :
  23.1: Read Only Watchpoint                                : Skip (missing hardware support)
  23.2: Write Only Watchpoint                               : Ok
  23.3: Read / Write Watchpoint                             : Ok
  23.4: Modify Watchpoint                                   : Ok

<title>perf tests tsc: Make tsc testing as a common testing</title>

x86 arch provides the testing for conversion between tsc and perf time,
the testing is located in x86 arch folder.  Move this testing out from
x86 arch folder and place it into the common testing folder, so allows
to execute tsc testing on other architectures (e.g. Arm64).

This patch removes the inclusion of "arch-tests.h" from the testing
code, this can avoid building failure if any arch has no this header
file.

Committer testing:

  $ perf test -v tsc
  Couldn't bump rlimit(MEMLOCK), failures may take place when creating BPF maps, etc
  70: Convert perf time to TSC                                        :

This adds a precompiled file in PE binary format, with split debug file,
and tries to read its build_id and .gnu_debuglink sections, as well as
looking up the main symbol from the debug file. This should succeed if
libbfd is supported.

<id>0a507af9c681ac2adedc5fe1b2d534e27be85446</id>
<content type='text'>
Adding new test that process metrics code and checks the expected
results. Starting with easy ipc metric.

Committer testing:

  # perf test "Parse and process metrics"
  67: Parse and process metrics                             : Ok
  #
  # perf test -v "Parse and process metrics"
  67: Parse and process metrics                             :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 103402
  metric expr inst_retired.any / cpu_clk_unhalted.thread for IPC
  found event inst_retired.any
  found event cpu_clk_unhalted.thread
  adding {inst_retired.any,cpu_clk_unhalted.thread}:W
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----
  Parse and process metrics: Ok
  #

Had to fix it to initialize that 'struct value' array sentinel with a
named initializer to fix the build with some versions of clang:

  tests/parse-metric.c:135:7: error: missing field 'val' initializer [-Werror,-Wmissing-field-initializers]
                { 0 },

<title>perf tools: Add optional support for libpfm4</title>
<updated>2020-05-29T19:51:38+00:00</updated>

<id>70943490784222b3fd26f5604cba71abb4d7ee6d</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch links perf with the libpfm4 library if it is available and
LIBPFM4 is passed to the build. The libpfm4 library contains hardware
event tables for all processors supported by perf_events. It is a helper
library that helps convert from a symbolic event name to the event
encoding required by the underlying kernel interface. This library is
open-source and available from: http://perfmon2.sf.net.

With this patch, it is possible to specify full hardware events by name.
Hardware filters are also supported. Events must be specified via the
--pfm-events and not -e option. Both options are active at the same time
and it is possible to mix and match:

  $ perf stat --pfm-events inst_retired:any_p:c=1:i -e cycles ....

One needs to explicitely ask for its inclusion by using the LIBPFM4 make
command line option, ie its opt-in rather than opt-out of feature
detection and build support.

<title>perf tests: Add test for the java demangler</title>

Split from a larger patch that was also fixing a problem with the java
demangler, so, before applying that patch we see:

  $ perf test java

  test child finished with -1
  ---- end ----
  Demangle Java: FAILED!

Next patch should fix this.
