2019-09-25libperf: Move 'page_size' global variable to libperfJiri Olsa28-25/+36
We need the 'page_size' variable in libperf, so move it there. Add a libperf_init() as a global libperf init function to obtain this value via sysconf() at tool start. Committer notes: Add internal/lib.h to tools/perf/ files using 'page_size', sometimes replacing util.h with it if that was the only reason for having util.h included.

2019-09-25perf evlist: Adopt backwards ring buffer state enumArnaldo Carvalho de Melo26-29/+53
As this isn't used at all in mmap.h but in evlist.h, so to cut down the header dependency tree, move it to where it is used. Also add mmap.h to the places using it but previously getting it indirectly via evlist.h. Add missing pthread.h to evlist.h, as it has a pthread_t struct member and was getting the header via mmap.h. Noticed while processing a Jiri's libperf batch touching mmap.h, where almost everything gets rebuilt because evlist.h is so popular, so cut down't this rebuild the world party.

All traceevent plugins code is moved to tools/lib/traceevent/plugins subdirectory. It makes traceevent implementation in trace-cmd and in kernel tree consistent.

2019-09-23perf record: Fix priv level with branch sampling for paranoid=2Stephane Eranian1-2/+4
Now that the default perf_events paranoid level is set to 2, a regular user cannot monitor kernel level activity anymore. As such, with the following cmdline: $ perf record -e cycles date The perf tool first tries cycles:uk but then falls back to cycles:u as can be seen in the perf report --header-only output: cmdline : /export/hda3/tmp/perf.tip record -e cycles ls event : name = cycles:u, , id = { 436186, ... } This is okay as long as there is way to learn the priv level was changed internally by the tool. But consider a similar example: $ perf record -b -e cycles date Error: You may not have permission to collect stats. Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid, which controls use of the performance events system by unprivileged users (without CAP_SYS_ADMIN). ... Why is that treated differently given that the branch sampling inherits the priv level of the first event in this case, i.e., cycles:u? It turns out that the branch sampling code is more picky and also checks exclude_hv. In the fallback path, perf record is setting exclude_kernel = 1, but it does not change exclude_hv. This does not seem to match the restriction imposed by paranoid = 2. This patch fixes the problem by forcing exclude_hv = 1 in the fallback for paranoid=2. With this in place: $ perf record -b -e cycles date cmdline : /export/hda3/tmp/perf.tip record -b -e cycles ls event : name = cycles:u, , id = { 436847, ... } And the command succeeds as expected. V2 fix a white space. Committer testing: After aplying the patch we get: [acme@quaco ~]$ perf record -b -e cycles date WARNING: Kernel address maps (/proc/{kallsyms,modules}) are restricted, check /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict and /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid.
