perf stat: Fix find_stat for mixed legacy/non-legacy events

2025-04-10T12:37:32+00:00

[ Upstream commit 8ce0d2da14d3fb62844dd0e95982c194326b1a5f ] Legacy events typically don't have a PMU when added leading to mismatched legacy/non-legacy cases in find_stat. Use evsel__find_pmu to make sure the evsel PMU is looked up. Update the evsel__find_pmu code to look for the PMU using the extended config type or, for legacy hardware/hw_cache events on non-hybrid systems, just use the core PMU.

perf stat: Fix the hard-coded metrics calculation on the hybrid

2024-08-03T06:54:27+00:00

commit 3612ca8e2935c4c142d99e33b8effa7045ce32b5 upstream. The hard-coded metrics is wrongly calculated on the hybrid machine. $ perf stat -e cycles,instructions -a sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 18,205,487 cpu_atom/cycles/ 9,733,603 cpu_core/cycles/ 9,423,111 cpu_atom/instructions/ # 0.52 insn per cycle 4,268,965 cpu_core/instructions/ # 0.23 insn per cycle The insn per cycle for cpu_core should be 4,268,965 / 9,733,603 = 0.44. When finding the metric events, the find_stat() doesn't take the PMU type into account. The cpu_atom/cycles/ is wrongly used to calculate the IPC of the cpu_core. In the hard-coded metrics, the events from a different PMU are only SW_CPU_CLOCK and SW_TASK_CLOCK. They both have the stat type, STAT_NSECS. Except the SW CLOCK events, check the PMU type as well.

perf metric: Don't remove scale from counts

2024-03-26T22:19:48+00:00

[ Upstream commit 6d6be5eb45b423a37d746d3ee0fd0c78f76ead9f ] Counts were switched from the scaled saved value form to the aggregated count to avoid double accounting. When this happened the removing of scaling for a count should have been removed, however, it wasn't and this wasn't observed as it normally doesn't matter because a counter's scale is 1. A problem was observed with RAPL events that are scaled.

perf stat: New metricgroup output for the default mode

2023-06-16T12:57:19+00:00

In the default mode, the current output of the metricgroup include both events and metrics, which is not necessary and just makes the output hard to read. Since different ARCHs (even different generations in the same ARCH) may use different events. The output also vary on different platforms. For a metricgroup, only outputting the value of each metric is good enough. Add a new field default_metricgroup in evsel to indicate an event of the default metricgroup. For those events, printout() should print the metricgroup name rather than each event. Add perf_stat__skip_metric_event() to skip the evsel in the Default metricgroup, if it's not running or not the metric event. Add print_metricgroup_header_t to pass the functions which print the display name of each metricgroup in the Default metricgroup. Support all three output methods. Factor out perf_stat__print_shadow_stats_metricgroup() to print out each metrics.

Currently nr_members is 0 for an event with no group, however, they are always a leader of their own group. A later change will make that count 1 because the event is its own leader.

perf stat: Use counts rather than saved_value

2023-02-19T11:10:25+00:00

Switch the hard coded metrics to use the aggregate value rather than from saved_value. When computing a metric like IPC the aggregate count comes from instructions then cycles is looked up and if present IPC computed. Rather than lookup from the saved_value rbtree, search the counter's evlist for the desired counter. A new helper evsel__stat_type is used to both quickly find a metric function and to identify when a counter is the one being sought. So that both total and miss counts can be sought, the stat_type enum is expanded. The ratio functions are rewritten to share a common helper with the ratios being directly passed rather than computed from an enum value.
