<id>urn:sha1:88db0aa2421666d2f73486d15b239a4521983d55</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 61a47c1ad3a4dc ("sysctl: Remove the sysctl system call"),
sys_sysctl is actually unavailable: any input can only return an error.

We have been warning about people using the sysctl system call for years
and believe there are no more users.  Even if there are users of this
interface if they have not complained or fixed their code by now they
probably are not going to, so there is no point in warning them any
longer.

So completely remove sys_sysctl on all architectures.

Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
 "New features:

   - Introduce controlling how 'perf stat' and 'perf record' works via a
     control file descriptor, allowing starting with events configured
     but disabled until commands are received via the control file
     descriptor. This allows, for instance for tools such as Intel VTune
     to make further use of perf as its Linux platform driver.

   - Improve 'perf record' to to register in a perf.data file header the
     clockid used to help later correlate things like syslog files and
     perf events recorded.

   - Add basic syscall and find_next_bit benchmarks to 'perf bench'.

   - Allow using computed metrics in calculating other metrics. For
     instance:

	  {
	    .metric_expr    = "l2_rqsts.demand_data_rd_hit + l2_rqsts.pf_hit + l2_rqsts.rfo_hit",
	    .metric_name    = "DCache_L2_All_Hits",
	  },
	  {
	    .metric_expr    = "max(l2_rqsts.all_demand_data_rd - l2_rqsts.demand_data_rd_hit, 0) + l2_rqsts.pf_miss + l2_rqsts.rfo_miss",
	    .metric_name    = "DCache_L2_All_Miss",
	  },
	  {
	     .metric_expr    = "dcache_l2_all_hits + dcache_l2_all_miss",
	     .metric_name    = "DCache_L2_All",
	  }

   - Add suport for 'd_ratio', '&gt;' and '&lt;' operators to the expression
     resolver used in calculating metrics in 'perf stat'.

  Support for new kernel features:

   - Support TEXT_POKE and KSYMBOL_TYPE_OOL perf metadata events to cope
     with things like ftrace, trampolines, i.e. changes in the kernel
     text that gets in the way of properly decoding Intel PT hardware
     traces, for instance.

  Intel PT:

   - Add various knobs to reduce the volume of Intel PT traces by
     reducing the level of details such as decoding just some types of
     packets (e.g., FUP/TIP, PSB+), also filtering by time range.

   - Add new itrace options (log flags to the 'd' option, error flags to
     the 'e' one, etc), controlling how Intel PT is transformed into
     perf events, document some missing options (e.g., how to synthesize
     callchains).

  BPF:

   - Properly report BPF errors when parsing events.

   - Do not setup side-band events if LIBBPF is not linked, fixing a
     segfault.

  Libraries:

   - Improvements to the libtraceevent plugin mechanism.

   - Improve libtracevent support for KVM trace events SVM exit reasons.

   - Add a libtracevent plugins for decoding syscalls/sys_enter_futex
     and for tlb_flush.

   - Ensure sample_period is set libpfm4 events in 'perf test'.

   - Fixup libperf namespacing, to make sure what is in libperf has the
     perf_ namespace while what is now only in tools/perf/ doesn't use
     that prefix.

  Arch specific:

   - Improve the testing of vendor events and metrics in 'perf test'.

   - Allow no ARM CoreSight hardware tracer sink to be specified on
     command line.

   - Fix arm_spe_x recording when mixed with other perf events.

   - Add s390 idle functions 'psw_idle' and 'psw_idle_exit' to list of
     idle symbols.

   - List kernel supplied event aliases for arm64 in 'perf list'.

   - Add support for extended register capability in PowerPC 9 and 10.

   - Added nest IMC power9 metric events.

  Miscellaneous:

   - No need to setup sample_regs_intr/sample_regs_user for dummy
     events.

   - Update various copies of kernel headers, some causing perf to
     handle new syscalls, MSRs, etc.

   - Improve usage of flex and yacc, enabling warnings and addressing
     the fallout.

   - Add missing '--output' option to 'perf kmem' so that it can pass it
     along to 'perf record'.

   - 'perf probe' fixes related to adding multiple probes on the same
     address for the same event.

   - Make 'perf probe' warn if the target function is a GNU indirect
     function.

   - Remove //anon mmap events from 'perf inject jit' to fix supporting
     both using ELF files for generated functions and the perf-PID.map
     approaches"

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - Add support for (optionally) using queued spinlocks &amp; rwlocks.

 - Support for a new faster system call ABI using the scv instruction on
   Power9 or later.

 - Drop support for the PROT_SAO mmap/mprotect flag as it will be
   unsupported on Power10 and future processors, leaving us with no way
   to implement the functionality it requests. This risks breaking
   userspace, though we believe it is unused in practice.

 - A bug fix for, and then the removal of, our custom stack expansion
   checking. We now allow stack expansion up to the rlimit, like other
   architectures.

 - Remove the remnants of our (previously disabled) topology update
   code, which tried to react to NUMA layout changes on virtualised
   systems, but was prone to crashes and other problems.

 - Add PMU support for Power10 CPUs.

 - A change to our signal trampoline so that we don't unbalance the link
   stack (branch return predictor) in the signal delivery path.

 - Lots of other cleanups, refactorings, smaller features and so on as
   usual.

Added support for supported regs which are new in power10 ( MMCR3,
SIER2, SIER3 ) to sample_reg_mask in the tool side to use with `-I?`
option. Also added PVR check to send extended mask for power10 at kernel
while capturing extended regs in each sample.

Add extended regs to sample_reg_mask in the tool side to use with `-I?`
option. Perf tools side uses extended mask to display the platform
supported register names (with -I? option) to the user and also send
this mask to the kernel to capture the extended registers in each
sample. Hence decide the mask value based on the processor version.

Currently definitions for `mfspr`, `SPRN_PVR` are part of
`arch/powerpc/util/header.c`. Move this to a header file so that these
definitions can be re-used in other source files as well.

To pick the changes from:

  55db9c0e8534 ("net: remove compat_sys_{get,set}sockopt")
  9b4feb630e8e ("arch: wire-up close_range()")

That automagically add the 'close_range' syscall to tools such as 'perf
trace'.

Before:

  # perf trace -e close_range
  event syntax error: 'close_range'
                       \___ parser error
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

   Usage: perf trace [&lt;options&gt;] [&lt;command&gt;]
      or: perf trace [&lt;options&gt;] -- &lt;command&gt; [&lt;options&gt;]
      or: perf trace record [&lt;options&gt;] [&lt;command&gt;]
      or: perf trace record [&lt;options&gt;] -- &lt;command&gt; [&lt;options&gt;]

      -e, --event &lt;event&gt;   event/syscall selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
  #

After, system wide strace like tracing for this syscall:

  # perf trace -e close_range
  ^C#

No calls, I need some test proggie :-)

To sync headers, for instance, in this case tools/perf was ahead of
upstream till Linus merged tip/perf/core to get the
PERF_RECORD_TEXT_POKE changes:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h' differs from latest version at 'include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h'
  diff -u tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h

When recording with cache-misses and arm_spe_x event, I found that it
will just fail without showing any error info if i put cache-misses
after 'arm_spe_x' event.

  [root@localhost 0620]# perf record -e cache-misses \
				-e arm_spe_0/ts_enable=1,pct_enable=1,pa_enable=1,load_filter=1,jitter=1,store_filter=1,min_latency=0/ sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.067 MB perf.data ]
  [root@localhost 0620]#
  [root@localhost 0620]# perf record -e arm_spe_0/ts_enable=1,pct_enable=1,pa_enable=1,load_filter=1,jitter=1,store_filter=1,min_latency=0/ \
				     -e  cache-misses sleep 1
  [root@localhost 0620]#

The current code can only work if the only event to be traced is an
'arm_spe_x', or if it is the last event to be specified. Otherwise the
last event type will be checked against all the arm_spe_pmus[i]-&gt;types,
none will match and an out of bound 'i' index will be used in
arm_spe_recording_init().

We don't support concurrent multiple arm_spe_x events currently, that
is checked in arm_spe_recording_options(), and it will show the relevant
info. So add the check and record of the first found 'arm_spe_pmu' to
fix this issue here.

<title>perf tools: No need to cache the PMUs in ARM SPE auxtrace init routine</title>

- auxtrace_record__init() is called only once, so there is no point in
  using a static variable to cache the results of
  find_all_arm_spe_pmus(), make it local and free the results after use.

- Another reason is, even though SPE is micro-architecture dependent,
  but so far it only supports "statistical-profiling-extension-v1" and
  we have no chance to use multiple SPE's PMU events in Perf command.

So remove the useless check code to make it clear.
