<id>urn:sha1:0a507af9c681ac2adedc5fe1b2d534e27be85446</id>
<content type='text'>
Adding new test that process metrics code and checks the expected
results. Starting with easy ipc metric.

Committer testing:

  # perf test "Parse and process metrics"
  67: Parse and process metrics                             : Ok
  #
  # perf test -v "Parse and process metrics"
  67: Parse and process metrics                             :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 103402
  metric expr inst_retired.any / cpu_clk_unhalted.thread for IPC
  found event inst_retired.any
  found event cpu_clk_unhalted.thread
  adding {inst_retired.any,cpu_clk_unhalted.thread}:W
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----
  Parse and process metrics: Ok
  #

Had to fix it to initialize that 'struct value' array sentinel with a
named initializer to fix the build with some versions of clang:

  tests/parse-metric.c:135:7: error: missing field 'val' initializer [-Werror,-Wmissing-field-initializers]
                { 0 },

<title>perf tools: Add optional support for libpfm4</title>

<id>urn:sha1:70943490784222b3fd26f5604cba71abb4d7ee6d</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch links perf with the libpfm4 library if it is available and
LIBPFM4 is passed to the build. The libpfm4 library contains hardware
event tables for all processors supported by perf_events. It is a helper
library that helps convert from a symbolic event name to the event
encoding required by the underlying kernel interface. This library is
open-source and available from: http://perfmon2.sf.net.

With this patch, it is possible to specify full hardware events by name.
Hardware filters are also supported. Events must be specified via the
--pfm-events and not -e option. Both options are active at the same time
and it is possible to mix and match:

  $ perf stat --pfm-events inst_retired:any_p:c=1:i -e cycles ....

One needs to explicitely ask for its inclusion by using the LIBPFM4 make
command line option, ie its opt-in rather than opt-out of feature
detection and build support.

Split from a larger patch that was also fixing a problem with the java
demangler, so, before applying that patch we see:

  $ perf test java

  ---- end ----

  $

Next patch should fix this.

<title>perf test: Improve pmu event metric testing</title>

<id>urn:sha1:06392aaad592cadf4335617a2bb8e45722e3df33</id>
<content type='text'>
Break pmu-events test into 2 and add a test to verify that all pmu
metric expressions simply parse. Try to parse all metric ids/events,
skip/warn if metrics for the current architecture fail to parse. To
support warning for a skip, and an ability for a subtest to describe why
it skips.

Tested on power9, skylakex, haswell, broadwell, westmere, sandybridge and
ivybridge.

May skip/warn on other architectures if metrics are invalid. In
particular s390 is untested, but its expressions are trivial. The
untested architectures with expressions are power8, cascadelakex,
tremontx, skylake, jaketown, ivytown and variants of haswell and
broadwell.

v3. addresses review comments from John Garry &lt;john.garry@huawei.com&gt;,
Jiri Olsa &lt;jolsa@redhat.com&gt; and Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
&lt;acme@kernel.org&gt;.
v2. changes the commit message as event parsing errors no longer cause
the test to fail.

Committer notes:

Check the return value of strtod() to fix the build in systems where
that function is declared with attribute warn_unused_result.

<content type='text'>
The synthesize benchmark shows the majority of execution time going to
fgets and sscanf, necessary to parse /proc/pid/maps. Add a new buffered
reading library that will be used to replace these calls in a follow-up
CL. Add tests for the library to perf test.

Committer tests:

  $ perf test api

The initial test will verify that the test tables in generated pmu-events.c
match against known, expected values.

For known events added in pmu-events/arch/test, we need to add an entry
in test_cpu_aliases_events[] or test_uncore_events[].

A sample run is as follows for x86:

  john@linux-3c19:~/linux&gt; tools/perf/perf test -vv 10
  10: PMU event aliases                                     :

Maintain a cpumap in the evlist that is the union of all the cpus of the
events.

This needs a cpumap merge operation, which is added together with tests.

v2:
Add tests for cpu map merge
Fix handling of duplicates
Rename _update to _merge
Factor out sorting.
Fix handling of NULL maps in merge

v3:
Add comments and empty lines to _merge

Committer testing:

  # perf test "Merge cpu map"
