Since commit 22f72088ff ("tools headers: Update the syscall table with
the kernel sources") the arm64 syscall header is generated at build
time. Later, commit bfb713ea53 ("perf tools: Fix arm64 build by
generating unistd_64.h") added a dependency to libperf to guarantee that
this header was created before building libperf or perf itself.
However, libjvmti also requires this header but does not depend on
libperf, leading to build failures such as:
In file included from /usr/include/sys/syscall.h:24,
from /usr/include/syscall.h:1,
from jvmti/jvmti_agent.c:36:
tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h:2:10: fatal error: asm/unistd_64.h: No such file or directory
2 | #include <asm/unistd_64.h>
Fix this by ensuring that libperf is built before libjvmti, so that
unistd_64.h is always available.

If libperl is installed then the perf tool build will build against
it. There appears to be limited interest in the scripting support for
perl so let's make it opt-in and deprecate it.
With this patch applied you need to add LIBPERL=1 to get libperl
support in perf - there is no warning if libperl is missing, but
building will fail if libperl is missing and the build has LIBPERL=1.
The perf version output is changed to:
```
$ perf version --build-options

This is an end-to-end test for the PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA support.
It adds a new "bpf_metadata_perf_version" variable to perf's BPF programs,
so that when they are loaded, there will be at least one BPF program with
some metadata to parse. The test invokes "perf record" in a way that loads
one of those BPF programs, and then sifts through the output to find its
BPF metadata.

When -s/--summary option is used, it doesn't need (augmented) arguments
of syscalls. Let's skip the augmentation and load another small BPF
program to collect the statistics in the kernel instead of copying the
data to the ring-buffer to calculate the stats in userspace. This will
be much more light-weight than the existing approach and remove any lost
events.
Let's add a new option --bpf-summary to control this behavior. I cannot
make it default because there's no way to get e_machine in the BPF which
is needed for detecting different ABIs like 32-bit compat mode.
No functional changes intended except for no more LOST events. :)

Pull perf tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
"perf record:
- Introduce latency profiling using scheduler information.
The latency profiling is to show impacts on wall-time rather than
cpu-time. By tracking context switches, it can weight samples and
find which part of the code contributed more to the execution
latency.
The value (period) of the sample is weighted by dividing it by the
number of parallel execution at the moment. The parallelism is
tracked in perf report with sched-switch records. This will reduce
the portion that are run in parallel and in turn increase the
portion of serial executions.
For now, it's limited to profile processes, IOW system-wide
profiling is not supported. You can add --latency option to enable
this.
$ perf record --latency -- make -C tools/perf
I've run the above command for perf build which adds -j option to
make with the number of CPUs in the system internally. Normally
it'd show something like below:
$ perf report -F overhead,comm
...
#
# Overhead Command
# ........ ...............
#
78.97% cc1
6.54% python3
4.21% shellcheck
3.28% ld
1.80% as
1.37% cc1plus
0.80% sh
0.62% clang
0.56% gcc
0.44% perl
0.39% make
...
The cc1 takes around 80% of the overhead as it's the actual
compiler. However it runs in parallel so its contribution to
latency may be less than that. Now, perf report will show both
overhead and latency (if --latency was given at record time) like
below:
$ perf report -s comm
...
#
# Overhead Latency Command
# ........ ........ ...............
#
78.97% 48.66% cc1
6.54% 25.68% python3
4.21% 0.39% shellcheck
3.28% 13.70% ld
1.80% 2.56% as
1.37% 3.08% cc1plus
0.80% 0.98% sh
0.62% 0.61% clang
0.56% 0.33% gcc
0.44% 1.71% perl
0.39% 0.83% make
...
You can see latency of cc1 goes down to around 50% and python3 and
ld contribute a lot more than their overhead. You can use --latency
option in perf report to get the same result but ordered by
latency.
$ perf report --latency -s comm
perf report:
- As a side effect of the latency profiling work, it adds a new
output field 'latency' and a sort key 'parallelism'. The below is a
result from my system with 64 CPUs. The build was well-parallelized
but contained some serial portions.
$ perf report -s parallelism
...
#
# Overhead Latency Parallelism
# ........ ........ ...........
#
16.95% 1.54% 62
13.38% 1.24% 61
12.50% 70.47% 1
11.81% 1.06% 63
7.59% 0.71% 60
4.33% 12.20% 2
3.41% 0.33% 59
2.05% 0.18% 64
1.75% 1.09% 9
1.64% 1.85% 5
...
- Support Feodra mini-debuginfo which is a LZMA compressed symbol
table inside ".gnu_debugdata" ELF section.
perf annotate:
- Add --code-with-type option to enable data-type profiling with the
usual annotate output.
Instead of focusing on data structure, it shows code annotation
together with data type it accesses in case the instruction refers
to a memory location (and it was able to resolve the target data
type). Currently it only works with --stdio.
$ perf annotate --stdio --code-with-type

perf trace:

system calls for 32-bit applications on 64-bit kernel

- Add --summary-mode=total option to show global syscall summary. The
default is 'thread' to show per-thread syscall summary.
Python support:
- Add more interfaces to 'perf' module to parse events, and config,
enable or disable the event list properly so that it can implement
basic functionalities purely in Python. There is an example code
for these new interfaces in python/tracepoint.py.
- Add mypy and pylint support to enable build time checking. Fix some
code based on the findings from these tools.
Internals:
- Introduce io_dir__readdir() API to make directory traveral (usually
for proc or sysfs) efficient with less memory footprint.
JSON vendor events:
- Add events and metrics for ARM Neoverse N3 and V3
- Update events and metrics on various Intel CPUs

Rather than generating individual syscall header files generate a
single trace/beauty/generated/syscalltbl.c. In a syscalltbls array
have references to each architectures tables along with the
corresponding e_machine. When the 32-bit or 64-bit table is ambiguous,
match the perf binary's type. For ARM32 don't use the arm64 32-bit
table which is smaller. EM_NONE is present for is no machine matches.
Conditionally compile the tables, only having the appropriate 32 and
64-bit table. If ALL_SYSCALLTBL is defined all tables can be
compiled.

Building perf in-tree is broken after commit 890a1961c8 ("perf tools:
Create source symlink in perf object dir") which added a 'source' symlink
in the output dir pointing to the source dir.
With in-tree builds, the added 'SOURCE = ...' line is executed multiple
times (I observed 2 during the build plus 2 during installation). This is a
minor inefficiency, in theory not harmful because symlink creation is
assumed to be idempotent. But it is not.
Considering with in-tree builds:
srctree=/absolute/path/to/linux
OUTPUT=/absolute/path/to/linux/tools/perf
here's what happens:
1. ln -sf $(srctree)/tools/perf $(OUTPUT)/source
-> creates /absolute/path/to/linux/tools/perf/source
link to /absolute/path/to/linux/tools/perf
=> OK, that's what was intended
2. ln -sf $(srctree)/tools/perf $(OUTPUT)/source # same command as 1
-> creates /absolute/path/to/linux/tools/perf/perf
link to /absolute/path/to/linux/tools/perf
=> Not what was intended, not idempotent
3. Now the build _should_ create the 'perf' executable, but it fails
The reason is the tricky 'ln' command line. At the first invocation 'ln'
uses the 1st form:
ln [OPTION]... [-T] TARGET LINK_NAME
and creates a link to TARGET *called LINK_NAME*.
At the second invocation $(OUTPUT)/source exists, so 'ln' uses the 3rd
form:
ln [OPTION]... TARGET... DIRECTORY
and creates a link to TARGET *called TARGET* inside DIRECTORY.
Fix by adding -n/--no-dereference to "treat LINK_NAME as a normal file
if it is a symbolic link to a directory", as the manpage says.

tools/build/Makefile.build. Move those variables to the top-level
Makefile.perf to be generally available.

See the SYSCALL lines, now they are consistent with the other

Create a source symlink to the original source in the objdir.
This is similar to what the main kernel build script does.

empty-pmu-events.c exists so that builds may occur without python
being installed on a system. Manually updating empty-pmu-events.c to
be in sync with jevents.py is a pain, let's use jevents.py to generate
empty-pmu-events.c.
1) change jevents.py so that an arch and model of none cause
generation of a pmu-events.c without any json. Add a SPDX and
autogenerated warning to the start of the file.
2) change Build so that if a generated pmu-events.c for arch none and
model none doesn't match empty-pmu-events.c the build fails with a
cat of the differences. Update Makefile.perf to clean up the files
used for this.
3) update empty-pmu-events.c to match the output of jevents.py with
arch and mode of none.
Committer notes:
The firtst paragraph is confusing, so I asked and Ian further clarified:
---
The requirement for python hasn't changed.
Case 1: no python or NO_JEVENTS=1
Build happens using empty-pmu-events.c that is checked in, no python
is required.
Case 2: python
pmu-events.c is created by jevents.py (requiring python) and then built.
This change adds a step where the empty-pmu-events.c is created using
jevents.py and that file is diffed against the checked in version.
This stops the checked in empty-pmu-events.c diverging if changes are
made to jevents.py. If the diff causes the build to fail then you just
copy the diff empty-pmu-events.c over the checked in one.

On recent Linux distros like Ubuntu Noble and Debian Bookworm, the
'pkg-config-aarch64-linux-gnu' package is missing. As a result, the
aarch64-linux-gnu-pkg-config command is not available, which causes
build failures.
When a build passes the environment variables PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR or
PKG_CONFIG_PATH, like a user uses make command or a build system
(like Yocto, Buildroot, etc) prepares the variables and passes to the
Perf's Makefile, the commit keeps these variables for package
configuration. Otherwise, this commit sets the PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR
variable to use the Multiarch libs for the cross compilation.
