For counters that generate AUX data that is bound to the context of a
running task, such as instruction tracing, the decoder needs to know
exactly which task is running when the event is first scheduled in,
before the first sched_switch. The decoder's need to know this stems
from the fact that instruction flow trace decoding will almost always
require program's object code in order to reconstruct said flow and
for that we need at least its pid/tid in the perf stream.
To single out such instruction tracing pmus, this patch introduces
ITRACE PMU capability. The reason this is not part of RECORD_AUX
record is that not all pmus capable of generating AUX data need this,
and the opposite is *probably* also true.
While sched_switch covers for most cases, there are two problems with it:
the consumer will need to process events out of order (that is, having
found RECORD_AUX, it will have to skip forward to the nearest sched_switch
to figure out which task it was, then go back to the actual trace to
decode it) and it completely misses the case when the tracing is enabled
and disabled before sched_switch, for example, via PERF_EVENT_IOC_DISABLE.

This adds support for overwrite mode in the AUX area, which means "keep
collecting data till you're stopped", turning AUX area into a circular
buffer, where new data overwrites old data. It does not depend on data
buffer's overwrite mode, so that it doesn't lose sideband data that is
instrumental for processing AUX data.
Overwrite mode is enabled at mapping AUX area read only. Even though
aux_tail in the buffer's user page might be user writable, it will be
ignored in this mode.
A PERF_RECORD_AUX with PERF_AUX_FLAG_OVERWRITE set is written to the perf
data stream every time an event writes new data to the AUX area. The pmu
driver might not be able to infer the exact beginning of the new data in
each snapshot, some drivers will only provide the tail, which is
aux_offset + aux_size in the AUX record. Consumer has to be able to tell
the new data from the old one, for example, by means of time stamps if
such are provided in the trace.
Consumer is also responsible for disabling any events that might write
to the AUX area (thus potentially racing with the consumer) before
collecting the data.

BPF programs, attached to kprobes, provide a safe way to execute
user-defined BPF byte-code programs without being able to crash or
hang the kernel in any way. The BPF engine makes sure that such
programs have a finite execution time and that they cannot break
out of their sandbox.
The user interface is to attach to a kprobe via the perf syscall:
struct perf_event_attr attr = {
.type = PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT,
.config = event_id,
...
};
event_fd = perf_event_open(&attr,...);
ioctl(event_fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF, prog_fd);
'prog_fd' is a file descriptor associated with BPF program
previously loaded.
'event_id' is an ID of the kprobe created.
Closing 'event_fd':
close(event_fd);
... automatically detaches BPF program from it.
BPF programs can call in-kernel helper functions to:
- lookup/update/delete elements in maps
- probe_read - wraper of probe_kernel_read() used to access any
kernel data structures
BPF programs receive 'struct pt_regs *' as an input ('struct pt_regs' is
architecture dependent) and return 0 to ignore the event and 1 to store
kprobe event into the ring buffer.
Note, kprobes are a fundamentally _not_ a stable kernel ABI,
so BPF programs attached to kprobes must be recompiled for
every kernel version and user must supply correct LINUX_VERSION_CODE
in attr.kern_version during bpf_prog_load() call.

While thinking on the whole clock discussion it occurred to me we have
two distinct uses of time:
1) the tracking of event/ctx/cgroup enabled/running/stopped times
which includes the self-monitoring support in struct
perf_event_mmap_page.
2) the actual timestamps visible in the data records.
And we've been conflating them.
The first is all about tracking time deltas, nobody should really care
in what time base that happens, its all relative information, as long
as its internally consistent it works.
The second however is what people are worried about when having to
merge their data with external sources. And here we have the
discussion on MONOTONIC vs MONOTONIC_RAW etc..
Where MONOTONIC is good for correlating between machines (static
offset), MONOTNIC_RAW is required for correlating against a fixed rate
hardware clock.
This means configurability; now 1) makes that hard because it needs to
be internally consistent across groups of unrelated events; which is
why we had to have a global perf_clock().
However, for 2) it doesn't really matter, perf itself doesn't care
what it writes into the buffer.
The below patch makes the distinction between these two cases by
adding perf_event_clock() which is used for the second case. It
further makes this configurable on a per-event basis, but adds a few
sanity checks such that we cannot combine events with different clocks
in confusing ways.
And since we then have per-event configurability we might as well
retain the 'legacy' behaviour as a default.
