Sometimes when adding a kprobe by perf, it results in multiple probe
points, such as the following:
# ./perf probe -l
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:73@fs/namei.c with pathname)
probe:vfs_getname_1 (on getname_flags:73@fs/namei.c with pathname)
probe:vfs_getname_2 (on getname_flags:73@fs/namei.c with pathname)
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
p:probe/vfs_getname _text+5501804 pathname=+0(+0(%gpr31)):string
p:probe/vfs_getname_1 _text+5505388 pathname=+0(+0(%gpr31)):string
p:probe/vfs_getname_2 _text+5508396 pathname=+0(+0(%gpr31)):string
In this test, we need to record all of them and expect any of them in
the perf-script output, since it's not clear which one will be used for
the desired syscall:
# perf stat -e probe:vfs_getname\* -- touch /tmp/nic
Performance counter stats for 'touch /tmp/nic':
31 probe:vfs_getname_2
0 probe:vfs_getname_1
1 probe:vfs_getname
0.001421826 seconds time elapsed
0.001506000 seconds user
0.000000000 seconds sys
If the test relies only on probe:vfs_getname, it might easily miss the
relevant data.

Commit 5aa98879ef ("s390/cpum_sf: prohibit callchain data collection")
prohibits call graph sampling for hardware events on s390. The
information recorded is out of context and does not match.
On s390 this commit now breaks test case 68 Zstd perf.data
compression/decompression.
Therefore omit call graph sampling on s390 in this test.

Keeping the stack of nested metrics via 'struct expr_id' objects
and checking if we are in recursion via already processed metric.
The stack is implemented as static array within the struct egroup
with 100 entries, which should be enough nesting depth for any
metric we have or plan to have at the moment.
Adding test that simulates the recursion and checks we can
detect it.
Committer notes:
Bumped RECURSION_ID_MAX to 1000 as per Jiri's reply to Paul Clark on the
patch series e-mail discussion.

Jin Yao reported issue with possible conflict between raw events and
term values in pmu event syntax.
Currently following syntax is resolved as raw event with 0xead value:
uncore_imc_free_running/read/
instead of using 'read' term from uncore_imc_free_running pmu, because
'read' is correct raw event syntax with 0xead value.
To solve this issue we do following:
- check existing terms during rXXXX syntax processing
and make them priority in case of conflict
- allow pmu/r0x1234/ syntax to be able to specify conflicting
raw event (implemented in previous patch)
Also add automated tests for this and perf_pmu__parse_cleanup call to
parse_events_terms, so the test gets properly cleaned up.
Fixes: 3a6c51e4d6 ("perf parser: Add support to specify rXXX event with pmu")

"BriefDescription": "This metric estimates fraction of cycles the CPU performance was potentially limited due to Core computation issues (non divider-related). Two distinct categories can be attributed into this metric: (1) heavy data-dependency among contiguous instructions would manifest in this metric - such cases are often referred to as low Instruction Level Parallelism (ILP). (2) Contention on some hardware execution unit other than Divider. For example; when there are too many multiply operations.",

The test goes through all metrics compiled for arch within pmu events
and try to parse them.
This test is different from 'test_parsing' in that we go through all the
events in the current arch, not just one defined for current CPU model.
Using 'fake_pmu' to parse events which do not have PMUs defined in the
system.
Say there's bad change in ivybridge metrics file, like:
- a/tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/ivybridge/ivb-metrics.json
+ b/tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/ivybridge/ivb-metrics.json
@@ -8,7 +8,7 @@
- "MetricExpr": "IDQ_UOPS_NOT_DELIVERED.CORE / (4 * ((
+ "MetricExpr": "IDQ_UOPS_NOT_DELIVERED.CORE / / (4 *
the test fails with (on my kabylake laptop):
$ perf test 'Parsing of PMU event table metrics with fake PMUs' -v

syntax error, line 1

The test also defines its own list of metrics and tries to parse them.
It's handy for developing.
