The Topdown Microarchitecture Analysis (TMA) Method is a structured
analysis methodology to identify critical performance bottlenecks in
out-of-order processors.
The Topdown metrics L1 event was added as default in 42641d6f4d
("perf stat: Add Topdown metrics events as default events")
From the Sapphire Rapids server and later platforms, the same dedicated
"metrics" register is extended to support both L1 and L2 events.
Add both L1 and L2 Topdown metrics events as default to enrich the
default measuring information if the new measurement register is
available.
On legacy systems there is no change to avoid extra multiplexing.
The topdown_level indicates the max metrics level for the top-down
statistics. Set it to 2 to display all L1 and L2 Topdown metrics events.

The callback cs_etm_find_snapshot() is invoked for snapshot mode, its
main purpose is to find the correct AUX trace data and returns "head"
and "old" (we can call "old" as "old head") to the caller, the caller
__auxtrace_mmap__read() uses these two pointers to decide the AUX trace
data size.
This patch removes cs_etm_find_snapshot() with below reasons:
- The first thing in cs_etm_find_snapshot() is to check if the head has
wrapped around, if it is not, directly bails out. The checking is
pointless, this is because the "head" and "old" pointers both are
monotonical increasing so they never wrap around.
- cs_etm_find_snapshot() adjusts the "head" and "old" pointers and
assumes the AUX ring buffer is fully filled with the hardware trace
data, so it always subtracts the difference "mm->len" from "head" to
get "old". Let's imagine the snapshot is taken in very short
interval, the tracers only fill a small chunk of the trace data into
the AUX ring buffer, in this case, it's wrongly to copy the whole the
AUX ring buffer to perf file.
- As the "head" and "old" pointers are monotonically increased, the
function __auxtrace_mmap__read() handles these two pointers properly.
It calculates the reminders for these two pointers, and the size is
clamped to be never more than "snapshot_size". We can simply reply on
the function __auxtrace_mmap__read() to calculate the correct result
for data copying, it's not necessary to add Arm CoreSight specific
callback.

The perf_mem_events__name() can generate the mem-load event name.
It uses a variable 'mem_loads_name__init' to avoid generating the
event name every time (because perf_pmu__scan takes some time).
The perf_mem_events__name() assumes the pmu is "cpu" but it's not
correct for hybrid platform. For Alderlake, the pmu is "cpu_core" or
"cpu_atom"
Introduce a new parameter 'pmu_name' in perf_mem_events__name
to let the caller specify a pmu name.
Considering such event name is x86 specific, so move
perf_mem_events[] to arch/x86/util/mem-events.c.
We still keep the variable 'mem_loads_name__init' but it's only
used when pmu_name is NULL (compatible for original behavior). When
pmu_name is not NULL (e.g. "cpu_core"), this patch doesn't have
optimization. That can be implemented in follow up patch.

- Improve Intel uncore PMU support:
- Parse uncore 'discovery tables' - a new hardware capability
enumeration method introduced on the latest Intel platforms. This
table is in a well-defined PCI namespace location and is read via
MMIO. It is organized in an rbtree.
These uncore tables will allow the discovery of standard counter
blocks, but fancier counters still need to be enumerated
explicitly.
- Add Alder Lake support
- Improve IIO stacks to PMON mapping support on Skylake servers
- Add Intel Alder Lake PMU support - which requires the introduction of
'hybrid' CPUs and PMUs. Alder Lake is a mix of Golden Cove ('big')
and Gracemont ('small' - Atom derived) cores.
The CPU-side feature set is entirely symmetrical - but on the PMU
side there's core type dependent PMU functionality.
- Reduce data loss with CPU level hardware tracing on Intel PT / AUX
profiling, by fixing the AUX allocation watermark logic.
- Improve ring buffer allocation on NUMA systems
- Put 'struct perf_event' into their separate kmem_cache pool
- Add support for synchronous signals for select perf events. The
immediate motivation is to support low-overhead sampling-based race
detection for user-space code. The feature consists of the following
main changes:
- Add thread-only event inheritance via
perf_event_attr::inherit_thread, which limits inheritance of
events to CLONE_THREAD.
- Add the ability for events to not leak through exec(), via
perf_event_attr::remove_on_exec.
- Allow the generation of SIGTRAP via perf_event_attr::sigtrap,
extend siginfo with an u64 ::si_perf, and add the breakpoint
information to ::si_addr and ::si_perf if the event is
PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT.
The siginfo support is adequate for breakpoints right now - but the
new field can be used to introduce support for other types of
metadata passed over siginfo as well.
- Misc fixes, cleanups and smaller updates.

Turns out, the default setting of attr.aux_watermark to half of the total
buffer size is not very useful, especially with smaller buffers. The
problem is that, after half of the buffer is filled up, the kernel updates
->aux_head and sets up the next "transaction", while observing that
->aux_tail is still zero (as userspace haven't had the chance to update
it), meaning that the trace will have to stop at the end of this second
"transaction". This means, for example, that the second PERF_RECORD_AUX in
every trace comes with TRUNCATED flag set.
Setting attr.aux_watermark to quarter of the buffer gives enough space for
the ->aux_tail update to be observed and prevents the data loss.
The obligatory before/after showcase:
> # perf_before record -e intel_pt//u -m,8 uname
> Linux
> [ perf record: Woken up 6 times to write data ]
> Warning:
> AUX data lost 4 times out of 10!
>
> [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.099 MB perf.data ]
> # perf record -e intel_pt//u -m,8 uname
> Linux
> [ perf record: Woken up 4 times to write data ]
> [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.039 MB perf.data ]
The effect is still visible with large workloads and large buffers,
although less pronounced.

The pipeline stage cycles details can be recorded on powerpc from the
contents of Performance Monitor Unit (PMU) registers. On ISA v3.1
platform, sampling registers exposes the cycles spent in different
pipeline stages. Patch adds perf tools support to present two of the
cycle counter information along with memory latency (weight).
Re-use the field 'ins_lat' for storing the first pipeline stage cycle.
This is stored in 'var2_w' field of 'perf_sample_weight'.
Add a new field 'p_stage_cyc' to store the second pipeline stage cycle
which is stored in 'var3_w' field of perf_sample_weight.
Add new sort function 'Pipeline Stage Cycle' and include this in
default_mem_sort_order[]. This new sort function may be used to denote
some other pipeline stage in another architecture. So add this to list

To pick up the fixes sent for v5.12 and continue development based on
v5.12-rc2, i.e. without the swap on file bug.
This also gets a slightly newer and better tools/perf/arch/arm/util/cs-etm.c
patch version, using the BIT() macro, that had already been slated to
v5.13 but ended up going to v5.12-rc1 on an older version.

In some versions of alpine Linux the perf build is broken since commit
1d509f2a6e ("x86/insn: Support big endian cross-compiles"):
In file included from /usr/include/linux/byteorder/little_endian.h:13,
from /usr/include/asm/byteorder.h:5,
from arch/x86/util/../../../../arch/x86/include/asm/insn.h:10,
from arch/x86/util/archinsn.c:2:
/usr/include/linux/swab.h:161:8: error: unknown type name '__always_inline'
static __always_inline __u16 __swab16p(const __u16 *p)
So move the inclusion of arch/x86/include/asm/insn.h to later in the
places where linux/stddef.h (that conditionally defines
__always_inline) to workaround this problem on Alpine Linux 3.9 to 3.11,
3.12 onwards works.

The ins_lat of PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT stands for the instruction
latency, which is only available for X86. Add a X86 specific test for
the ins_lat and PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT type.
The test__x86_sample_parsing() uses the same way as the
test__sample_parsing() to verify a sample type. Since the ins_lat and
PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT are the only X86 specific sample type for now,
the test__x86_sample_parsing() only verify the PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT
type. Other sample types are still verified in the generic test.
$ perf test 77 -v
77: x86 Sample parsing :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 102370
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
x86 Sample parsing: Ok

The current fixed metadata version format (version 0), means that adding
metadata parameter items renders files from a previous version of perf
unreadable. Per CPU parameters appear in a fixed order, but there is no
field to indicate the number of ETM parameters per CPU.
This patch updates the per CPU parameter blocks to include a NR_PARAMs
value which indicates the number of parameters in the block.
The header version is incremented to 1. Fixed ordering is retained,
new ETM parameters are added to the end of the list.
The reader code is updated to be able to read current version 0 files,
For version 1, the reader will read the number of parameters in the
per CPU block. This allows the reader to process older or newer files
that may have different numbers of parameters than in use at the
time perf was built.

For X86, the var2_w field of PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT stands for the
instruction latency. Current perf forces the var2_w to the data->ins_lat
in the generic code. It works well for now because X86 is the only
architecture that supports the PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT, but it may
bring problems once other architectures support the sample type. For
example, the var2_w may be used to capture something else on PowerPC.
Create two architecture specific functions to parse and synthesize the
weight related samples. Move the X86 specific codes to the X86 version
functions. Other architectures can implement their own functions later
separately.
