perf tests: Sort includes and add missed explicit dependencies

2026-05-27T11:20:31+00:00

Fix missing #includes found while cleaning the evsel/evlist header files. Sort the remaining header files for consistency with the rest of the code.

perf evlist: Try to avoid computing evsel from sample

2026-05-20T19:39:40+00:00

As struct perf_sample now directly contains its own resolved evsel pointer, passing the evsel separately is redundant and clutters the interface. Remove the redundant evsel parameter from evlist-specific handlers and structures, ensuring the tool always directly accesses the evsel bound to the sample. This simplifies the API signatures and eliminates the risk of passing an inconsistent evsel.

perf test: Don't fail if user rdpmc returns 0 when disabled

2025-11-17T07:24:00+00:00

In certain hypervisor set ups the value 0 may be returned but this is only erroneous if the user rdpmc isn't disabled. Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim

perf test: Expand user space event reading (rdpmc) tests

2025-06-20T20:14:07+00:00

Test that disabling rdpmc support via /sys/bus/event_source/cpu*/rdpmc disables reading in the mmap (libperf read support will fallback to using a system call). Test all hybrid PMUs support rdpmc. Ensure hybrid PMUs use the correct CPU to rdpmc the correct event. Previously the test would open cycles or instructions with no extended type then rdpmc it on whatever CPU. This could fail/skip due to which CPU the test was scheduled upon.

perf thread_map: Remove uid options

2025-06-09T18:18:18+00:00

Now the target doesn't have a uid, it is handled through BPF filters, remove the uid options to thread_map creation. Tidy up the functions used in tests to avoid passing unused arguments.

perf sample: Make user_regs and intr_regs optional

2025-02-13T04:06:11+00:00

The struct dump_regs contains 512 bytes of cache_regs, meaning the two values in perf_sample contribute 1088 bytes of its total 1384 bytes size. Initializing this much memory has a cost reported by Tavian Barnes as about 2.5% when running `perf script --itrace=i0`: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/d841b97b3ad2ca8bcab07e4293375fb7c32dfce7.1736618095.git.tavianator@tavianator.com/ Adrian Hunter replied that the zero initialization was necessary and couldn't simply be removed. This patch aims to strike a middle ground of still zeroing the perf_sample, but removing 79% of its size by make user_regs and intr_regs optional pointers to zalloc-ed memory. To support the allocation accessors are created for user_regs and intr_regs. To support correct cleanup perf_sample__init and perf_sample__exit functions are created and added throughout the code base.

libperf cpumap: Replace usage of perf_cpu_map__new(NULL) with perf_cpu_map__new_online_cpus()

2023-12-12T17:55:13+00:00

Passing NULL to perf_cpu_map__new() performs perf_cpu_map__new_online_cpus(), just directly call perf_cpu_map__new_online_cpus() to be more intention revealing.
