On powerpc, 'perf trace' is crashing with a SIGSEGV when trying to
process a perf.data file created with 'perf trace record -p':
#0 0x00000001225b8988 in syscall_arg__scnprintf_augmented_string <snip> at builtin-trace.c:1492
#1 syscall_arg__scnprintf_filename <snip> at builtin-trace.c:1492
#2 syscall_arg__scnprintf_filename <snip> at builtin-trace.c:1486
#3 0x00000001225bdd9c in syscall_arg_fmt__scnprintf_val <snip> at builtin-trace.c:1973
#4 syscall__scnprintf_args <snip> at builtin-trace.c:2041
#5 0x00000001225bff04 in trace__sys_enter <snip> at builtin-trace.c:2319
That points to the below code in tools/perf/builtin-trace.c:
/*
* If this is raw_syscalls.sys_enter, then it always comes with the 6 possible
* arguments, even if the syscall being handled, say "openat", uses only 4 arguments
* this breaks syscall__augmented_args() check for augmented args, as we calculate
* syscall->args_size using each syscalls:sys_enter_NAME tracefs format file,
* so when handling, say the openat syscall, we end up getting 6 args for the
* raw_syscalls:sys_enter event, when we expected just 4, we end up mistakenly
* thinking that the extra 2 u64 args are the augmented filename, so just check
* here and avoid using augmented syscalls when the evsel is the raw_syscalls one.
*/
if (evsel != trace->syscalls.events.sys_enter)
augmented_args = syscall__augmented_args(sc, sample, &augmented_args_size, trace->raw_augmented_syscalls_args_size);
As the comment points out, we should not be trying to augment the args
for raw_syscalls. However, when processing a perf.data file, we are not
initializing those properly. Fix the same.

perf already support ignore_missing_thread for -p, but not yet
applied to `perf stat -p <pid>`. This patch enables ignore_missing_thread
for `perf stat -p <pid>`.
Committer notes:
And here is a refresher about the 'ignore_missing_thread' knob, from a
previous patch using it:
ca8000684e ("perf evsel: Enable ignore_missing_thread for pid option")
---
While monitoring a multithread process with pid option, perf sometimes
may return sys_perf_event_open failure with 3(No such process) if any of
the process's threads die before we open the event. However, we want
perf continue monitoring the remaining threads and do not exit with
error.

For some reason using:
cat <<EoFuncBegin
static const char *errno_to_name__$arch(int err)
{
switch (err) {
EoFuncBegin
In tools/perf/trace/beauty/arch_errno_names.sh isn't working on ALT
Linux sisyphus (development version), which could be some distro
specific glitch, so just get this done in an alternative way that works
everywhere while giving notice to the people working on that distro to
try and figure our what really took place.

Build ID events associate a file name with a build ID. However, when
using perf inject, there is no guarantee that the file on the current
machine at the current time has that build ID. Fix by comparing the
build IDs and skip adding to the cache if they are different.
Example:
$ echo "int main() {return 0;}" > prog.c
$ gcc -o prog prog.c
$ perf record --buildid-all ./prog
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.019 MB perf.data ]
$ file-buildid() { file $1 | awk -F= '{print $2}' | awk -F, '{print $1}' ; }
$ file-buildid prog
444ad9be165d8058a48ce2ffb4e9f55854a3293e
$ file-buildid ~/.debug/$(pwd)/prog/444ad9be165d8058a48ce2ffb4e9f55854a3293e/elf
444ad9be165d8058a48ce2ffb4e9f55854a3293e
$ echo "int main() {return 1;}" > prog.c
$ gcc -o prog prog.c
$ file-buildid prog

Before:
$ perf buildid-cache --purge $(pwd)/prog

The testcase 'Check Arm64 callgraphs are complete in fp mode' wants to
see the following output:
610 leaf
62f parent
648 main
However, without excluding kernel callchains, the output might look like:
ffffc2ff40ef1b5c arch_local_irq_enable
ffffc2ff419d032c __schedule
ffffc2ff419d06c0 schedule
ffffc2ff40e4da30 do_notify_resume
ffffc2ff40e421b0 work_pending
610 leaf
62f parent
648 main
Adding '--user-callchains' leaves only the wanted symbols in the chain.

perf test -F 83 ("perf stat CSV output linter") fails on s390.
Reason is the wrong number of fields for certain CPU core/die/socket
related output.
On x84_64 the output of command:
# ./perf stat -x, -A -a --no-merge true
CPU0,1.50,msec,cpu-clock,1502781,100.00,1.052,CPUs utilized
CPU1,1.48,msec,cpu-clock,1476113,100.00,1.034,CPUs utilized
...
results in 8 fields with 7 comma separators.
On s390 the output of command:
# ./perf stat -x, -A -a --no-merge -- true
0.95,msec,cpu-clock,949800,100.00,1.060,CPUs utilized
...
results in 7 fields with 6 comma separators. Therefore this tests
fails on s390. Similar issues exist for per-die and per-socket output
which is not supported on s390.
I have rewritten the python program to count commas in each output line
into a bash function to achieve the same result. I hope this makes it a
bit easier.
