tools headers UAPI: Sync linux/perf_event.h with the kernel sources

perf branch: Add branch privilege information request flag

2022-10-04T11:55:20+00:00

This updates the perf tools with branch privilege information request flag i.e PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_PRIV_SAVE that has been added earlier in the kernel. This also updates 'perf record' documentation, branch_modes[], and generic branch privilege level enumeration as added earlier in the kernel.

perf branch: Extend branch type classification

2022-10-04T11:55:20+00:00

This updates the perf tool with generic branch type classification with new ABI extender place holder i.e PERF_BR_EXTEND_ABI, the new 4 bit branch type field i.e perf_branch_entry.new_type, new generic page fault related branch types and some arch specific branch types as added earlier in the kernel. Committer note: Add an extra entry to the branch_type_name array to cope with PERF_BR_EXTEND_ABI, to address build warnings on some compiler/systems, like: 75 8.89 ubuntu:20.04-x-powerpc64el : FAIL gcc version 10.3.0 (Ubuntu 10.3.0-1ubuntu1~20.04) inlined from 'branch_type_stat_display' at util/branch.c:152:4: /usr/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/include/bits/stdio2.h:100:10: error: '%8s' directive argument is null [-Werror=format-overflow=] 100 | return __fprintf_chk (__stream, __USE_FORTIFY_LEVEL - 1, __fmt, | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 101 | __va_arg_pack ()); | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Anshuman Khandual Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Catalin Marinas Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: James Clark Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Robin Murphy Cc: Stephen Rothwell Cc: Suzuki Poulouse Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Will Deacon Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220824044822.70230-7-anshuman.khandual@arm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf branch: Add system error and not in transaction branch types

2022-10-04T11:55:20+00:00

This updates the perf tool with generic branch type classification with two new branch types i.e system error (PERF_BR_SERROR) and not in transaction (PERF_BR_NO_TX) which got updated earlier in the kernel. This also updates corresponding branch type strings in branch_type_name().

perf tools: Sync addition of PERF_MEM_SNOOPX_PEER

2022-08-11T22:11:36+00:00

Add a flag to the 'perf mem' data struct to signal that a request caused a cache-to-cache transfer of a line from a peer of the requestor and wasn't sourced from a lower cache level. The line being moved from one peer cache to another has latency and performance implications. On Arm64 Neoverse systems the data source can indicate a cache-to-cache transfer but not if the line is dirty or clean, so instead of overloading HITM define a new flag that indicates this type of transfer. Committer notes: This really is not syncing with the kernel since the patch to the kernel wasn't merged. But we're going ahead of this as it seems trivial and is just a matter of the perf kernel maintainers to give their ack or for us to find another way of expressing this in the perf records synthesized in userspace from the ARM64 hardware traces.

treewide: uapi: Replace zero-length arrays with flexible-array members

2022-06-28T19:26:05+00:00

There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2]. This code was transformed with the help of Coccinelle: (linux-5.19-rc2$ spatch --jobs $(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN) --sp-file script.cocci --include-headers --dir . > output.patch) @@ identifier S, member, array; type T1, T2; @@ struct S { ... T1 member; T2 array[ - 0 ]; }; -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 is coming and we need to land these changes to prevent issues like these in the short future: ../fs/minix/dir.c:337:3: warning: 'strcpy' will always overflow; destination buffer has size 0, but the source string has length 2 (including NUL byte) [-Wfortify-source] strcpy(de3->name, "."); ^ Since these are all [0] to [] changes, the risk to UAPI is nearly zero. If this breaks anything, we can use a union with a new member name.
