This is basically to support the new open_tree_attr syscall. But it
also needs to update asm-generic unistd.h header to get the new syscall
number. And arm64 unistd.h header was converted to use the generic
64-bit header.

The definition of "static const char *const syscalltbl[] = {" is done
in a generated syscalls_32.h or syscalls_64.h that is architecture
dependent. In order to include the appropriate file a syscall_table.h
is found via the perf include path and it includes the syscalls_32.h
or syscalls_64.h as appropriate.
To support having multiple syscall tables, one for 32-bit and one for
64-bit, or for different architectures, an include path cannot be
used. Remove syscall_table.h because of this and inline what it does
into syscalltbl.c.
For architectures without a syscall_table.h this will cause a failure
to include either syscalls_32.h or syscalls_64.h rather than a failure
to include syscall_table.h. For architectures that only included one
or other, the behavior matches BITS_PER_LONG as previously done on
architectures supporting both syscalls_32.h and syscalls_64.h.

When running topdown leader smapling test on Intel hybrid platforms,
such as LNL/ARL, we see the below error.
Topdown leader sampling test
Topdown leader sampling [Failed topdown events not reordered correctly]
It indciates the below command fails.
perf record -o "${perfdata}" -e "{instructions,slots,topdown-retiring}:S" true
The root cause is that perf tool creats a perf event for each PMU type
if it can create.
As for this command, there would be 5 perf events created,
cpu_atom/instructions/,cpu_atom/topdown_retiring/,
cpu_core/slots/,cpu_core/instructions/,cpu_core/topdown-retiring/
For these 5 events, the 2 cpu_atom events are in a group and the other 3
cpu_core events are in another group.
When arch_topdown_sample_read() traverses all these 5 events, events
cpu_atom/instructions/ and cpu_core/slots/ don't have a same group
leade, and then return false directly and lead to cpu_core/slots/ event
is used to sample and this is not allowed by PMU driver.
It's a overkill to return false directly if "evsel->core.leader !=
leader->core.leader" since there could be multiple groups in the event
list.
Just "continue" instead of "return false" to fix this issue.

In sysfs, the perf events are all located in
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/ but some places ended up hard-coding the
location to be at the root of /sys/devices/ which could be very risky as
you do not exactly know what type of device you are accessing in sysfs
at that location.
So fix this all up by properly pointing everything at the bus device
list instead of the root of the sysfs devices/ tree.

The struct dump_regs contains 512 bytes of cache_regs, meaning the two
values in perf_sample contribute 1088 bytes of its total 1384 bytes
size. Initializing this much memory has a cost reported by Tavian
Barnes <tavianator@tavianator.com> as about 2.5% when running `perf
script --itrace=i0`:

Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> replied that the zero
initialization was necessary and couldn't simply be removed.
This patch aims to strike a middle ground of still zeroing the
perf_sample, but removing 79% of its size by make user_regs and
intr_regs optional pointers to zalloc-ed memory. To support the
allocation accessors are created for user_regs and intr_regs. To
support correct cleanup perf_sample__init and perf_sample__exit

Leverage the existed function perf_pmu__name_from_config() to check if
an event is topdown metrics event. perf_pmu__name_from_config() goes
through the defined formats and figures out the config of pre-defined
topdown events.
This avoids to figure out the config of topdown pre-defined events with
hard-coded format strings "event=" and "umask=" and provides more
flexibility.

metrics events which are not in same group with previous event. But it
just modifies the 2nd comparator and causes the comparators become
asymmetric.
Thus modify the 1st topdown metrics comparator and make the two
comparators be symmetric, and refine the comments as well.

first aggregation index.
The tool event implementations are used in expr but not evaluated as
events for simplicity. Also core_wide isn't made a tool event as it

Hard coded terms like "config=10" are skipped by perf_pmu__config
assuming they were already applied to a perf_event_attr by parse
event's config_attr function. When doing a reverse number to name
lookup in perf_pmu__name_from_config, as the hardcoded terms aren't
applied the config value is incorrect leading to misses or false
matches. Fix this by adding a parameter to have perf_pmu__config apply
hardcoded terms too (not just in parse event's config_term_common).

Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for
event (topdown-retiring).
The reason of error is that the events are regrouped and
topdown-retiring event is moved to closely after the slots event and
topdown-retiring event needs to do the sampling, but Intel PMU driver
doesn't support to sample topdown metrics events.
For topdown metrics events, it just requires to be in a group which has
slots event as leader. It doesn't require topdown metrics event must be
closely after slots event. Thus it's a overkill to move topdown metrics
event closely after slots event in events regrouping and furtherly cause
the above issue.
Thus don't move topdown metrics events forward if they are already in a
group.

Addresses an issue where, in the absence of a topdown metrics event
within a sampling group, the slots event was incorrectly bypassed as
the sampling leader when sample_read was enabled.

In this case, the slots event should be sampled as leader but the
branches event is sampled in fact like the verbose output shows.

The sample period of slots event instead of branches event is reset to

It's not complete to check whether an event is a topdown slots or
topdown metrics event by only comparing the event name since user
may assign the event by RAW format, e.g.
perf stat -e '{instructions,cpu/r400/,cpu/r8300/}' sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
<not counted> instructions
<not counted> cpu/r400/
<not supported> cpu/r8300/
1.002917796 seconds time elapsed
0.002955000 seconds user
0.000000000 seconds sys
The RAW format slots and topdown-be-bound events are not recognized and
not regroup the events, and eventually cause error.
Thus add two helpers arch_is_topdown_slots()/arch_is_topdown_metrics()
to detect whether an event is topdown slots/metrics event by comparing
the event config directly, and use these two helpers to replace the
original event name comparisons.

In some cases, compilers don't set the location expression in DWARF
precisely. For instance, it may assign a variable to a register after
copying it from a different register. Then it should use the register
for the new type but still uses the old register. This makes hard to
track the type information properly.
This is an example I found in __tcp_transmit_skb(). The first argument
(sk) of this function is a pointer to sock and there's a variable (tp)
for tcp_sock.
static int __tcp_transmit_skb(struct sock *sk, struct sk_buff *skb,
int clone_it, gfp_t gfp_mask, u32 rcv_nxt)
{
...
struct tcp_sock *tp;
BUG_ON(!skb || !tcp_skb_pcount(skb));
tp = tcp_sk(sk);
prior_wstamp = tp->tcp_wstamp_ns;
tp->tcp_wstamp_ns = max(tp->tcp_wstamp_ns, tp->tcp_clock_cache);
...
So it basically calls tcp_sk(sk) to get the tcp_sock pointer from sk.
But it turned out to be the same value because tcp_sock embeds sock as
the first member. The sk is located in reg5 (RDI) and tp is in reg3
(RBX). The offset of tcp_wstamp_ns is 0x748 and tcp_clock_cache is
0x750. So you need to use RBX (reg3) to access the fields in the
tcp_sock. But the code used RDI (reg5) as it has the same value.
$ pahole --hex -C tcp_sock vmlinux | grep -e 748 -e 750
u64 tcp_wstamp_ns; /* 0x748 0x8 */
u64 tcp_clock_cache; /* 0x750 0x8 */
And this is the disassembly of the part of the function.
<__tcp_transmit_skb>:
...
44: mov %rdi, %rbx
47: mov 0x748(%rdi), %rsi
4e: mov 0x750(%rdi), %rax
55: cmp %rax, %rsi
Because compiler put the debug info to RBX, it only knows RDI is a
pointer to sock and accessing those two fields resulted in error
due to offset being beyond the type size.

final result: offset bigger than size
While it's a fault in the compiler, we could work around this issue by
using the type of new variable when it's copied directly. So I've added
copied_from field in the register state to track those direct register
to register copies. After that new register gets a new type and the old
register still has the same type, it'll update (copy it back) the type
of the old register.
For example, if we can update type of reg5 at __tcp_transmit_skb+0x47,
we can find the target type of the instruction at 0x63 like below:

To pick up the latest perf-tools merge for 6.11, i.e. to have the
current perf tools branch that is getting into 6.11 with the
perf-tools-next that is geared towards 6.12.

When retire_latency value is used in a metric formula, evsel would fork
a 'perf record' process with "-e" and "-W" options. 'perf record' will
collect required retire_latency values in parallel while 'perf stat' is
collecting counting values.
At the point of time that 'perf stat' stops counting, evsel would stop
'perf record' by sending sigterm signal to 'perf record' process.
Sampled data will be processed to get retire latency value. Another
thread is required to synchronize between 'perf stat' and 'perf record'
when we pass data through pipe.
Retire_latency evsel is not opened for 'perf stat' so that there is no
counter wasted on it. This commit includes code suggested by Namhyung to
adjust reading size for groups that include retire_latency evsels.
In current :R parsing implementation, the parser would recognize events
with retire_latency modifier and insert them into the evlist like a
normal event. Ideally, we need to avoid counting these events.
In this commit, at the time when a retire_latency evsel is read, set the
retire latency value processed from the sampled data to count value.
This sampled retire latency value will be used for metric calculation
and final event count print out. No special metric calculation and event
print out code required for retire_latency events.

And arch syscall tables to pick up changes from:
b1e31c134a powerpc: restore some missing spu syscalls
d3882564a7 syscalls: fix compat_sys_io_pgetevents_time64 usage
54233a4254 uretprobe: change syscall number, again
63ded11097 uprobe: Change uretprobe syscall scope and number
9142be9e64 x86/syscall: Mark exit[_group] syscall handlers __noreturn
9aae1baa1c x86, arm: Add missing license tag to syscall tables files
5c28424e9a syscalls: Fix to add sys_uretprobe to syscall.tbl
190fec72df uprobe: Wire up uretprobe system call
This should be used to beautify syscall arguments and it addresses
these tools/perf build warnings:
Warning: Kernel ABI header differences:
diff -u tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h
diff -u tools/perf/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl

Change the unused var in 'arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscalltbl.sh' to '_'
when reading from '$sorted_table'. This change allows the script to pass
tests of ShellCheck before and after version 0.7.2 at the same time.
When building in arch x86, syscalltbl.sh got a ShellCheck warning, which
makes compilation error:
In arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscalltbl.sh line 27:
while read nr _abi name entry _compat; do
^-^ SC2034: abi appears unused.
Verify use (or export if used externally).
^----^ SC2034: compat appears unused.
Verify use (or export if used externally).
The script reads unused param abi and compat. It uses format '_xxx' to
indicate dummy vars, which won't work properly when ShellCheck <= 0.7.2.
According to SC2034, the more general way of writing is to use directly
'_' to indicate discarding vars. 'entry' is also replaced by '_' because
it just happens to be defined in emit function, otherwise it will lead
to some misunderstandings.

In the past, the exclude_guest setting has had no effect on Intel PT
tracing, but that may not be the case in the future.
Set the flag correctly based upon whether KVM is using Intel PT
"Host/Guest" mode, which is determined by the kvm_intel module
parameter pt_mode:
pt_mode=0 System-wide mode : host and guest output to host buffer
pt_mode=1 Host/Guest mode : host/guest output to host/guest
buffers respectively
Fixes: 6e86bfdc4a ("perf intel-pt: Support decoding of guest kernel")
