Andi Kleen cf99ad1424 perf record: Support weak groups 
Implement a weak group fallback for 'perf record', similar to the
existing 'perf stat' support.  This allows to use groups that might be
longer than the available counters without failing.

Before:

  $ perf record  -e '{cycles,cache-misses,cache-references,cpu_clk_unhalted.thread,cycles,cycles,cycles}' -a sleep 1
  Error:
  The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (cycles).
  /bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.

After:

  $ ./perf record  -e '{cycles,cache-misses,cache-references,cpu_clk_unhalted.thread,cycles,cycles,cycles}:W' -a sleep 1
  WARNING: No sample_id_all support, falling back to unordered processing
  [ perf record: Woken up 3 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 8.136 MB perf.data (134069 samples) ]

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 218d61110f perf top: Do not use overwrite mode by default 
Enabling --overwrite mode allows us to to use just the most recent
records, which helps in high core count machines such as Knights
Landing/Mill, but right now is being disabled by default as the pausing
used in this technique is leading to loss of metadata events such as
PERF_RECORD_MMAP which makes 'perf top' unable to resolve samples,
leading to lots of unknown samples appearing on the UI.

Enabling this may be useful if you are in such machines and profiling a
workload that doesn't creates short lived threads and/or doesn't uses
many executable mmap operations.

Work is being planed to solve this situation, till then, this will
remain disabled by default.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 4e303fbe2d perf top: Allow disabling the overwrite mode 
In ebebbf0823 ("perf top: Switch default mode to overwrite mode") we
forgot to leave a way to disable that new default, add a --overwrite
option that can be disabled using --no-overwrite, since the code already
in such a way that we can readily disable this mode.

This is useful when investigating bugs with this mode like the recent
report from David Miller where lots of unknown symbols appear due to
disabling the events while processing them which disables all record
types, not just PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE, which makes it impossible to resolve
maps when we lose PERF_RECORD_MMAP records.

This can be easily seen while building a kernel, when there are lots of
short lived processes.

Andi Kleen 99f753f048 perf script: Implement --graph-function 
Add a ftrace style --graph-function argument to 'perf script' that
allows to print itrace function calls only below a given function. This
makes it easier to find the code of interest in a large trace.

Andi Kleen d1b1552e15 tools script: Add --call-trace and --call-ret-trace 
Add short cut options to print PT call trace and call-ret-trace, for
calls and call and returns. Roughly corresponds to ftrace function
tracer and function graph tracer.

Just makes these common use cases nicer to use.

Andi Kleen 4eb0681571 perf script: Make itrace script default to all calls 
By default 'perf script' for itrace outputs sampled instructions or
branches. In my experience this is confusing to users because it's hard
to correlate with real program behavior. The sampling makes sense for
tools like 'perf report' that actually sample to reduce the run time,
but run time is normally not a problem for 'perf script'.  It's better
to give an accurate representation of the program flow.

Default 'perf script' to output all calls for itrace. That's a much saner
default. The old behavior can be still requested with 'perf script'
--itrace=ibxwpe100000

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 5067a8cdd4 perf trace: Introduce --max-events 
Allow stopping tracing after a number of events take place, considering
strace-like syscalls formatting as one event per enter/exit pair or when
in a multi-process tracing session a syscall is interrupted and printed
ending with '...'.

Examples included in the documentation:

Trace the first 4 open, openat or open_by_handle_at syscalls (in the future more syscalls may match here):

  $ perf trace -e open* --max-events 4
  [root@jouet perf]# trace -e open* --max-events 4
  2272.992 ( 0.037 ms): gnome-shell/1370 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /proc/self/stat) = 31
  2277.481 ( 0.139 ms): gnome-shell/3039 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /proc/self/stat) = 65
  3026.398 ( 0.076 ms): gnome-shell/3039 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /proc/self/stat) = 65
  4294.665 ( 0.015 ms): sed/15879 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
  $

Trace the first minor page fault when running a workload:

  # perf trace -F min --max-stack=7 --max-events 1 sleep 1
     0.000 ( 0.000 ms): sleep/18006 minfault [__clear_user+0x1a] => 0x5626efa56080 (?k)

Ben Hutchings 169e366c08 perf Documentation: Fix out-of-tree asciidoctor man page generation 
The dependency for the man page rule using asciidoctor incorrectly
specifies a source file in $(OUTPUT).  When building out-of-tree, the
source file is not found, resulting in a fall-back to the following rule
which uses xmlto.

Jiri Olsa e6902d1b73 perf report: Add --percent-type option 
Set annotation percent type from following choices:

  global-period, local-period, global-hits, local-hits

With following report option setup the percent type will be passed to
annotation browser:

  $ perf report --percent-type period-local

The local/global keywords set if the percentage is computed in the scope
of the function (local) or the whole data (global).  The period/hits
keywords set the base the percentage is computed on - the samples period
or the number of samples (hits).

The local/global keywords set if the percentage is computed in the scope
of the function (local) or the whole data (global).

The period/hits keywords set the base the percentage is computed on -
the samples period or the number of samples (hits).

Jiri Olsa 0ce2da1483 perf stat: Display user and system time 
Adding the support to read rusage data once the workload is finished and
display the system/user time values:

  $ perf stat --null perf bench sched pipe
  ...

   Performance counter stats for 'perf bench sched pipe':

       5.342599256 seconds time elapsed

       2.544434000 seconds user
       4.549691000 seconds sys

It works only in non -r mode and only for workload target.

So as of now, for workload targets, we display 3 types of timings. The
time we meassure in perf stat from enable to disable+period:

       5.342599256 seconds time elapsed

The time spent in user and system lands, displayed only for workload
session/target:

       2.544434000 seconds user
       4.549691000 seconds sys

Those times are the very same displayed by 'time' tool.  They are
returned by wait4 call via the getrusage struct interface.

Committer notes:

Had to rename some variables to avoid this on older systems such as
centos:6:

  builtin-stat.c: In function 'print_footer':
  builtin-stat.c:1831: warning: declaration of 'stime' shadows a global declaration

Takashi Iwai ffef80ecf8 perf Documentation: Support for asciidoctor 
The asciidoc package seems behind the recent big wave of python3
conversion, and we were advised to switch to asciidoctor instead.  It's
almost compatible but some extensions used for perf documentation don't
work with it.  Here is the patch to cover them, and add the proper
support for asciidoctor.

Pass USE_ASCIIDOCTOR=yes to make for using asciidoctor instead of
asciidoc.  The man source and manual attributes are passed via command
options.  The support for these attributes have been fixed in the
latest asciidoctor code.

Since asciidoctor can covert to a man page and an HTML directly, we
can omit the dependency on xmlto when USE_ASCIIDOCTOR is set.
