Describe the function view hierarchy (read-side function -> contending
writer function -> shared cachelines), the per-level indentation, and the
keys, with a worked example.
Document that reliable function attribution requires `iaddr` in
`--coalesce`, that the reader and writer may be the same function, and why
the coalesced function view cannot distinguish same-thread from
different-thread accesses in that case. Also document that verbose mode
includes code addresses in function rows.

While 'perf sched latency' reports task runtime and delay statistics
(average and maximum delay), it does not provide a visual representation
of how task wait times are distributed across latency ranges between
snapshots (start and finish of the analysis window).
The --histogram option collects CPU wait latencies (time between when
a task becomes runnable and when it gets scheduled onto a CPU) into 22
latency buckets, displaying an ASCII bar chart distribution.
The --hist-mode option configures the bucketing scheme:
- log (default). Logarithmic latency buckets ranging from
sub-microsecond (< 1 us) up to >= 1.05 seconds
- linear. Equal-width linear latency buckets
(i.e., 100 us steps up to >= 2.1 ms)
The --time option allows filtering trace event processing to a
specific time interval [start,stop].
Example histogram output excerpt:
❯ sudo perf sched latency --histogram --CPU 0

Introduce a new '--bitmask-list' command-line option for 'perf trace'.
When this option is specified, the formatting of cpumasks is delegated
to bitmap_scnprintf(), enabling cpumasks to be displayed as a condensed,
human-readable list (e.g., "0,2-5,7") instead of the default hexadecimal
representation. An example is provided below:

When monitoring a large number of events (e.g., with wildcards such as
--event 'syscalls:sys_enter_*'), many matched events will return a count
of zero. This clutters the output, making it difficult to spot the
active events.
Add a new option --hide-zero-events to suppress printing events that
have a count of zero.
To prevent formatting and diagnostic issues, the zero-skipping logic
implements the following rules:
1. In metric-only mode (i.e., --metric-only), columns must remain
aligned in the output grid. We evaluate config->metric_only first
to avoid skipping zero-valued columns, preventing values from
shifting left and aligning under incorrect headers
2. For explicitly requested events, we ensure they are not silently
hidden if they are unsupported. We only hide a zero-count event
if counter->supported is true, ensuring that unsupported explicit
events still report "<not supported>"

Add a CoreSight shell test for synthesized callchains.
The test uses the new callchain workload to generate trace and decodes
it with synthesis callchain. It then verifies that the instruction
samples show the expected callchain push and pop.
Use control FIFOs so tracing starts only around the workload, which
keeps the trace data small. The test is limited to with the cs_etm
event available and root permission.
After:
perf test 138 -vvv

Add a --workload-ctl=fifo:ctl-fifo[,ack-fifo] option for 'perf test
-w'. When set, run_workload() opens the named FIFO, writes enable before
invoking the builtin workload, writes disable before returning, and
waits for ack responses when an ack FIFO is provided to ensure that the
workload doesn't run until the events are enabled.
This can be used to limit the scope of the recording to only the
workload execution and avoid recording Perf setup and teardown code if
Perf record is started with events disabled (-D 1).

When tracing system-wide workloads or specific events, it is highly
valuable to know exactly which CPU executed a specific event. Currently,
perf trace output defaults to omitting CPU information.
Introduce a new "--show-cpu" command-line option. When provided, this
flag extracts the CPU from the perf sample and prints it in a "[000]"
format immediately following the timestamp. This mirrors the behaviour of
other tracing tools like ftrace and perf script. For example:
# perf trace -e sched:sched_switch --max-events 5 --show-cpu
0.000 [002] :0/0 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm: "swapper/2", prev_prio: 120, next_comm: "rcu_preempt", next_pid: 16 (rcu_preempt), next_prio: 120)
0.009 [002] rcu_preempt/16 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm: "rcu_preempt", prev_pid: 16 (rcu_preempt), prev_prio: 120, prev_state: 128, next_comm: "swapper/2", next_prio: 120)
0.033 [002] :0/0 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm: "swapper/2", prev_prio: 120, next_comm: "kworker/u32:48", next_pid: 35840 (kworker/u32:48-), next_prio: 120)
0.041 [002] kworker/u32:48/35840 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm: "kworker/u32:48", prev_pid: 35840 (kworker/u32:48-), prev_prio: 120, prev_state: 128, next_comm: "swapper/2", next_prio: 120)
0.045 [002] :0/0 sched:sched_switch(prev_comm: "swapper/2", prev_prio: 120, next_comm: "kworker/u32:48", next_pid: 35840 (kworker/u32:48-), next_prio: 120)
The feature is implemented strictly as an opt-in toggle to prevent
cluttering the standard output and to preserve backwards compatibility
for scripts parsing the default output format.

The "comm" column allows grouping events by the process command. It is
intended to group like programs, despite having different PIDs. But some
workloads may adjust their own command, so that a unique identifier
(e.g. a PID or some other numeric value) is part of the command name.
This destroys the utility of "comm", forcing perf to place each unique
process name into its own bucket, which can contribute to a
combinatorial explosion of memory use in perf report.
Create a less strict version of this column, which ignores digits when
comparing command names. Commands whose names are the same (ignoring
digits) are sorted into the same histogram buckets, and displayed with
the placeholder value "<N>" in the place of digits. For example,
hypothetical command names "kworker/1" "kworker/2" "kworker/3" would
sort into the same bucket and be represented as "kworker/<N>".
Committer testing:
$ perf report -s comm,comm_nodigit | grep -F "<N>"

0.01% kworker/53:2-mm kworker/<N>:<N>-mm

Add support for parsing an optional layout parameter in the --symfs
command line option. The format is:
--symfs <directory[,layout]>
Where layout can be:
- 'hierarchy': matches full path (default)
- 'flat': only matches base name
When debugging symbol files from a copy of the filesystem (e.g., from a
container or remote machine), the debug files are often stored in a
flat directory structure with only filenames, not the full original
paths. In this case, using 'flat' layout allows perf to find debug
symbols by matching only the filename rather than the full path.
For example, given a binary path like:
/build/output/lib/foo.so
With 'perf report --symfs /debug/files,flat', perf will look for:
/debug/files/foo.so
Instead of:
/debug/files/build/output/lib/foo.so
This is particularly useful when:
- Extracting debug files from containers with different directory layouts
- Working with build systems that flatten directory structures

Add flag that disables affinity behavior.
Using sched_setaffinity() to place a perf thread on a CPU can avoid
certain interprocessor interrupts but may introduce a delay due to the
scheduling, particularly on loaded machines.
Add a command line option to disable the behavior.
This behavior is less present in other tools like `perf record`, as it
uses a ring buffer and doesn't make repeated system calls.

The '/proc/schedstat' file gives info about load balancing statistics
within a given domain.
It also contains the cpu_mask giving information about the sibling cpus
and domain names after schedstat version 17.
Storing this information in perf header will help tools like `perf sched
stats` for better analysis.

Users may occasionally need to see which options are applied to memory
events.
This helps to understand the behavior of "perf c2c" and "perf mem", and
provides guidance for configuring memory event options directly.
Add a table to track memory events and their corresponding options, and
include the Arm SPE events in it.

There are applications not built with frame pointers, so DWARF is needed
to get the stack traces.
`perf record --call-graph dwarf` saves the stack and register data for
each sample to get the stacktrace offline. But sometimes this data may
have sensitive information and we don't want to keep them in the file.
This new 'perf inject --convert-callchain' option creates the callchains
and discards the stack and register after that.
This saves storage space and processing time for the new data file.
Of course, users should remove the original data file to not keep
sensitive data around. :)
The down side is that it cannot handle inlined callchain entries as they
all have the same IPs.
Maybe we can add an option to 'perf report' to look up inlined functions
using DWARF - IIUC it doesn't require stack and register data.
This is an example.
$ perf record --call-graph dwarf -- perf test -w noploop
$ perf report --stdio --no-children --percent-limit=0 > output-prev
$ perf inject -i perf.data --convert-callchain -o perf.data.out
$ perf report --stdio --no-children --percent-limit=0 -i perf.data.out > output-next
$ diff -u output-prev output-next

The correct call-stack option for branch stack sampling should be "stack"
instead of "call_stack". Correct it.
$perf record -e instructions -j call_stack -- sleep 1
unknown branch filter call_stack, check man page
Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
-j, --branch-filter <branch filter mask>

perf record -e probe:icmp_rcv_L64 -aR sleep 1

Currently -d/--data option controls both PERF_SAMPLE_ADDR bit and
perf_event_attr.mmap_data flag. Separate them using new --data-mmap
option to support recording only one of them.
For data-type profiling, data MMAP is unnecessary but it wastes a lot
of space in the ring buffer and data file.

they can set tool->merge_deferred_callchains to false to prevent the

The NO_AUXTRACE build option was used when the __get_cpuid feature
test failed or if it was provided on the command line. The option no
longer avoids a dependency on a library and so having the option is
just adding complexity to the code base. Remove the option
CONFIG_AUXTRACE from Build files and HAVE_AUXTRACE_SUPPORT by assuming
it is always defined.

Perf c2c report currently specified the code address and source:line
information in the cacheline browser, while it is lack of annotation
support like perf report to directly show the disassembly code for
the particular symbol shared that same cacheline. This patches add
a key 'a' binding to the cacheline browser which reuse the annotation
browser to show the disassembly view for easier analysis of cacheline

There can be a significant gap in memset/memcpy performance depending
on the size of the region being operated on.
With chunk-size=4kb:
$ echo madvise > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
$ perf bench mem memset -p 4kb -k 4kb -s 4gb -l 10 -f x86-64-stosq
# Running 'mem/memset' benchmark:
# function 'x86-64-stosq' (movsq-based memset() in arch/x86/lib/memset_64.S)
# Copying 4gb bytes ...
13.011655 GB/sec
With chunk-size=1gb:
$ echo madvise > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
$ perf bench mem memset -p 4kb -k 1gb -s 4gb -l 10 -f x86-64-stosq
# Running 'mem/memset' benchmark:
# function 'x86-64-stosq' (movsq-based memset() in arch/x86/lib/memset_64.S)
# Copying 4gb bytes ...
21.936355 GB/sec
So, allow the user to specify the chunk-size.
The default value is identical to the total size of the region, which
preserves current behaviour.

The function parse_events__sort_events_and_fix_groups is needed to fix
uncore events like:
```
$ perf stat -e '{data_read,data_write}' ...
```
so that the multiple uncore PMUs have a group each of data_read and
data_write events.
The same function will perform architecture sorting and group fixing,
in particular for Intel topdown/perf-metric events. Grouping multiple
perf metric events together causes perf_event_open to fail as the
group can only support one. This means command lines like:
```
$ perf stat -e 'slots,slots' ...
```
fail as the slots events are forced into a group together to try to
satisfy the perf-metric event constraints.
As the user may know better than
parse_events__sort_events_and_fix_groups add a 'X' modifier to skip
its regrouping behavior. This allows the following to succeed rather
than fail on the second slots event being opened:
```
$ perf stat -e 'slots,slots:X' -a sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
6,834,154,071 cpu_core/slots/ (50.13%)
5,548,629,453 cpu_core/slots/X (49.87%)

Support for build IDs in mmap2 perf events has been present since
Linux v5.12:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210219194619.1780437-1-acme@kernel.org/
Build ID mmap events don't avoid the need to inject build IDs for DSO
touched by samples as the build ID cache is populated by perf
record. They can avoid some cases of symbol mis-resolution caused by
the file system changing from when a sample occurred and when the DSO
is sought.
Unlike the --buildid-mmap option, this chnage doesn't disable the
build ID cache but it does disable the processing of samples looking
for DSOs to inject build IDs for. To disable the build ID cache the -B
(--no-buildid) option should be used.
Making this option the default was raised on the list in:
