Remove the LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC and LIBTRACEFS_DYNAMIC make command
line variables.
If libtraceevent isn't installed or NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 is passed to the
build, don't compile in libtraceevent and libtracefs support.
This also disables CONFIG_TRACE that controls "perf trace".
CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT is used to control enablement in Build/Makefiles,
HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is used in C code.
Without HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT tracepoints are disabled and as such the
commands kmem, kwork, lock, sched and timechart are removed. The
majority of commands continue to work including "perf test".
Committer notes:
Fixed up a tools/perf/util/Build reject and added:
#include <traceevent/event-parse.h>
to tools/perf/util/scripting-engines/trace-event-perl.c.

Had to tweak tools/perf/util/setup.py to make sure the python binding
shared object links with libtraceevent if -DHAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is
present in CFLAGS.
Building with NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 uncovered some more build failures:
- Make building of data-convert-bt.c to CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y
- perf-$(CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT) += scripts/
- bpf_kwork.o needs also to be dependent on CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y
- The python binding needed some fixups and util/trace-event.c can't be
built and linked with the python binding shared object, so remove it
in tools/perf/util/setup.py and exclude it from the list of
dependencies in the python/perf.so Makefile.perf target.
Building without libtraceevent-devel installed uncovered more build
failures:
- The python binding tools/perf/util/python.c was assuming that
traceevent/parse-events.h was always available, which was the case
when we defaulted to using the in-kernel tools/lib/traceevent/ files,
now we need to enclose it under ifdef HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT, just like
the other parts of it that deal with tracepoints.
- We have to ifdef the rules in the Build files with
CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y to build builtin-trace.c and
tools/perf/trace/beauty/ as we only ifdef setting CONFIG_TRACE=y when
setting NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 in the make command line, not when we don't
detect libtraceevent-devel installed in the system. Simplification here
to avoid these two ways of disabling builtin-trace.c and not having
CONFIG_TRACE=y when libtraceevent-devel isn't installed is the clean
way.
From Athira:
<quote>
tools/perf/arch/powerpc/util/Build
-perf-y += kvm-stat.o
+perf-$(CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT) += kvm-stat.o
</quote>
Then, ditto for arm64 and s390, detected by container cross build tests.
- s/390 uses test__checkevent_tracepoint() that is now only available if
HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is defined, enclose the callsite with ifder HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT.
Also from Athira:
<quote>
With this change, I could successfully compile in these environment:
- Without libtraceevent-devel installed
- With libtraceevent-devel installed
- With “make NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1”
</quote>
Then, finally rename CONFIG_TRACEEVENT to CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT for
consistency with other libraries detected in tools/perf/.

Skip an event configuration for event names with a dash/minus in them.
Events with a dash/minus in their name cause parsing issues as legacy
encoding of events would use a dash/minus as a separator.
The parser separates events with dashes into prefixes and suffixes and
then recombines them. Unfortunately if an event has part of its name
that matches a legacy token then the recombining fails.
This is seen for branch-brs where branch is a legacy token. branch-brs
was introduced to sysfs in:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220322221517.2510440-5-eranian@google.com/
The failure is shown below as well as the workaround to use a config
where the dash/minus isn't treated specially:
```
$ perf stat -e branch-brs true
event syntax error: 'branch-brs'
\___ parser error
$ perf stat -e cpu/branch-brs/ true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
46,179 cpu/branch-brs/

Move evsel::leader to perf_evsel::leader, so we can move the group
interface to libperf.
Also add several evsel helpers to ease up the transition:
struct evsel *evsel__leader(struct evsel *evsel);
- get leader evsel
bool evsel__has_leader(struct evsel *evsel, struct evsel *leader);
- true if evsel has leader as leader
bool evsel__is_leader(struct evsel *evsel);
- true if evsel is itw own leader
void evsel__set_leader(struct evsel *evsel, struct evsel *leader);

Peter suggested that using the exclusive mode in perf could avoid some
problems with bad scheduling of groups. Exclusive is implemented in the
kernel, but wasn't exposed by the perf tool, so hard to use without
custom low level API users.
Add support for marking groups or events with :e for exclusive in the
perf tool. The implementation is basically the same as the existing
pinned attribute.

Currently if we run 'perf record -e cycles:u', exclude_guest=0.
But it doesn't make sense in most cases that we request for
user-space counting but we also get the guest report.
Of course, we also need to consider 'perf kvm' usage case that
authorized perf users on the host may only want to count guest user
space events. For example,
# perf kvm --guest record -e cycles:u
When we have 'exclude_guest=1' for 'perf kvm' usage, we may get nothing
from guest events.
To keep perf semantics consistent and clear, this patch sets
exclude_guest=1 for user-space counting but except for 'perf kvm' usage.
Before:
perf record -e cycles:u ./div
perf evlist -v
cycles:u: ..., exclude_kernel: 1, exclude_hv: 1, ...
After:
perf record -e cycles:u ./div
perf evlist -v
cycles:u: ..., exclude_kernel: 1, exclude_hv: 1, exclude_guest: 1, ...
Before:
perf kvm --guest record -e cycles:u -vvv
perf_event_attr:
size 120
{ sample_period, sample_freq } 4000
sample_type IP|TID|TIME|ID|CPU|PERIOD

exclude_kernel 1
exclude_hv 1

After:

exclude_kernel 1
exclude_hv 1

For Before/After, exclude_guest are both 0 for perf kvm usage.

Jin Yao reported issue with possible conflict between raw events and
term values in pmu event syntax.
Currently following syntax is resolved as raw event with 0xead value:
uncore_imc_free_running/read/
instead of using 'read' term from uncore_imc_free_running pmu, because
'read' is correct raw event syntax with 0xead value.
To solve this issue we do following:
- check existing terms during rXXXX syntax processing
and make them priority in case of conflict
- allow pmu/r0x1234/ syntax to be able to specify conflicting
raw event (implemented in previous patch)
Also add automated tests for this and perf_pmu__parse_cleanup call to
parse_events_terms, so the test gets properly cleaned up.

The current rXXXX event specification creates event under PERF_TYPE_RAW
pmu type. This change allows to use rXXXX within pmu syntax, so it's
type is used via the following syntax:
-e 'cpu/r3c/'
-e 'cpum_cf/r0/'
The XXXX number goes directly to perf_event_attr::config the same way as
in '-e rXXXX' event. The perf_event_attr::type is filled with pmu type.
Committer testing:
So, lets see what goes in perf_event_attr::config for, say, the
'instructions' PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE (0) event, first we should look at how
to encode this event as a PERF_TYPE_RAW event for this specific CPU, an
AMD Ryzen 5:
# cat /sys/devices/cpu/events/instructions
event=0xc0
#
Then try with it _and_ the instruction, just to see that they are close
enough:
# perf stat -e rc0,instructions sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
919,794 rc0
919,898 instructions
1.000754579 seconds time elapsed
0.000715000 seconds user
0.000000000 seconds sys
#
Now we should try, before this patch, the PMU event encoding:
# perf stat -e cpu/rc0/ sleep 1
event syntax error: 'cpu/rc0/'
\___ unknown term
valid terms: event,edge,inv,umask,cmask,config,config1,config2,name,period,percore
#
Now with this patch, the three ways of specifying the 'instructions' CPU
counter are accepted:
# perf stat -e cpu/rc0/,rc0,instructions sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
892,948 cpu/rc0/
893,052 rc0
893,156 instructions

Also we don't need to include perf_event.h in

systems where things are used somewhere down the include path from
perf_event.h without defining __always_inline.

test child interrupted
Adding the struct parse_events_error argument to parse_events call. Also
adding parse_events_print_error to get more details on the parsing
failures, like:
# perf test 6 -v
running test 52 'intel_pt//u'failed to parse event 'intel_pt//u', err 1, str 'Cannot find PMU `intel_pt'. Missing kernel support?'
event syntax error: 'intel_pt//u'
\___ Cannot find PMU `intel_pt'. Missing kernel support?
Committer note:
Use named initializers in the struct parse_events_error variable to
avoid breaking the build on centos5, 6 and others with a similar gcc:
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
tests/parse-events.c: In function 'test_event':
tests/parse-events.c:1696: error: missing initializer
tests/parse-events.c:1696: error: (near initialization for 'err.str')
