The NO_AUXTRACE build option was used when the __get_cpuid feature
test failed or if it was provided on the command line. The option no
longer avoids a dependency on a library and so having the option is
just adding complexity to the code base. Remove the option
CONFIG_AUXTRACE from Build files and HAVE_AUXTRACE_SUPPORT by assuming
it is always defined.

Recent change on enabling --buildid-mmap by default brought an issue
with build-id handling. With build-ID in MMAP2 records, we don't need
to save the build-ID table in the header of a perf data file.
But the actual file contents still need to be cached in the debug
directory for annotation etc. Split the build-ID header processing and
caching and make sure perf record to save hit DSOs in the build-ID cache
by moving perf_session__cache_build_ids() to the end of the record__
finish_output().

When using perf record with the `--overwrite` option, a segmentation fault
occurs if an event fails to open. For example:
perf record -e cycles-ct -F 1000 -a --overwrite
Error:

The --overwrite option implies --tail-synthesize, which collects non-sample
events reflecting the system status when recording finishes. However, when
evsel opening fails (e.g., unsupported event 'cycles-ct'), session->evlist
is not initialized and remains NULL. The code unconditionally calls
record__synthesize() in the error path, which iterates through the NULL
evlist pointer and causes a segfault.
To fix it, move the record__synthesize() call inside the error check block, so
it's only called when there was no error during recording, ensuring that evlist
is properly initialized.

Whilst for many tools it is an expected behavior that failure to open
a perf event is a failure, ARM decided to name PMU events the same as
legacy events and then failed to rename such events on a server uncore
SLC PMU. As perf's default behavior when no PMU is specified is to
open the event on all PMUs that advertise/"have" the event, this
yielded failures when trying to make the priority of legacy and
sysfs/json events uniform - something requested by RISC-V and ARM. A
legacy event user on ARM hardware may find their event opened on an
uncore PMU which for perf record will fail. Arnaldo suggested skipping
such events which this patch implements. Rather than have the skipping
conditional on running on ARM, the skipping is done on all
architectures as such a fundamental behavioral difference could lead
to problems with tools built/depending on perf.
An example of perf record failing to open events on x86 is:
```
$ perf record -e data_read,cycles,LLC-prefetch-read -a sleep 0.1
Error:
Failure to open event 'data_read' on PMU 'uncore_imc_free_running_0' which will be removed.
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (data_read).
"dmesg | grep -i perf" may provide additional information.
Error:
Failure to open event 'data_read' on PMU 'uncore_imc_free_running_1' which will be removed.
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (data_read).
"dmesg | grep -i perf" may provide additional information.
Error:
Failure to open event 'LLC-prefetch-read' on PMU 'cpu' which will be removed.
The LLC-prefetch-read event is not supported.
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.188 MB perf.data (87 samples) ]

```
If all events fail to open then the perf record will fail:
```
$ perf record -e LLC-prefetch-read true
Error:
Failure to open event 'LLC-prefetch-read' on PMU 'cpu' which will be removed.
The LLC-prefetch-read event is not supported.
Error:
Failure to open any events for recording
```
As an evlist may have dummy events that open when all command line
events fail we ignore dummy events when detecting if at least some
events open. This still permits the dummy event on its own to be used
as a permission check:
```
$ perf record -e dummy true
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.046 MB perf.data ]
```
but allows failure when a dummy event is implicilty inserted or when
there are insufficient permissions to open it:
```
$ perf record -e LLC-prefetch-read -a true
Error:
Failure to open event 'LLC-prefetch-read' on PMU 'cpu' which will be removed.
The LLC-prefetch-read event is not supported.
Error:
Failure to open any events for recording
```
As the first parsed event in an evlist is marked as tracking, removing
this event can remove tracking from the evlist, removing mmap events
and breaking symbolization. To avoid this, if a tracking event is
removed then the next event has tracking added.
The issue with legacy events is that on RISC-V they want the driver to
not have mappings from legacy to non-legacy config encodings for each
vendor/model due to size, complexity and difficulty to update. It was
reported that on ARM Apple-M? CPUs the legacy mapping in the driver
was broken and the sysfs/json events should always take precedent,
however, it isn't clear this is still the case. It is the case that
without working around this issue a legacy event like cycles without a
PMU can encode differently than when specified with a PMU - the
non-PMU version favoring legacy encodings, the PMU one avoiding legacy
encodings. Legacy events are also case sensitive while sysfs/json
events are not.
The patch removes events and then adjusts the idx value for each
evsel. This is done so that the dense xyarrays used for file
descriptors, etc. don't contain broken entries.
On ARM it could be common following this change to see a lot of
warnings for the cycles event due to many ARM PMUs advertising the
cycles event (ARM inconsistently have events bus_cycles and then
cycles implying CPU cycles, they also sometimes have a cpu_cycles
event). As cycles is a popular event, avoid potentially spamming users
with error messages on ARM when there are multiple cycles events in
the evlist, the error is still shown when verbose is enabled.
Prior versions without adding the tracking data and not warning for
cycles on ARM was:

For the sake of Intel topdown events commit 9eac5612da1c9102 ("perf
stat: Don't skip failing group events") changed 'perf stat' error
handling making it so that more errors were fatal and didn't report
"<not supported>" events. The change outside of topdown events was
unintentional.
The notion of "fatal" error handling was introduced in commit
e0e6a6ca3ac211cc ("perf stat: Factor out open error handling") and
refined in commits like commit cb5ef60067c11cc8 ("perf stat: Error out
unsupported group leader immediately") to be an approach for avoiding
later assertion failures in the code base.
This change fixes those issues and removes the notion of a fatal error
on an event. If all events fail to open then a fatal error occurs with
the previous fatal error message. This seems to best match the notion of
supported events and allowing some errors not to stop 'perf stat', while
allowing the truly fatal no event case to terminate the tool early.
The evsel->errored flag is only used in the stat code but always just
meaning !evsel->supported although there is a comment about it being
sticky. Force all evsels to be supported in evsel__init and then clear
this when evsel__open fails. When an event is tried the supported is
set to true again. This simplifies the notion of whether an evsel is
broken.
In the get_group_fd code, fail to get a group fd when the evsel isn't
supported. If the leader isn't supported then it is also expected that
there is no group_fd as the leader will have been skipped. Therefore
change the BUG_ON test to be on supported rather than skippable. This
corrects the assertion errors that were the reason for the previous
fatal error handling.

`evsel__env(NULL)` which returns the global perf_env variable for the

Support for build IDs in mmap2 perf events has been present since
Linux v5.12:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210219194619.1780437-1-acme@kernel.org/
Build ID mmap events don't avoid the need to inject build IDs for DSO
touched by samples as the build ID cache is populated by perf
record. They can avoid some cases of symbol mis-resolution caused by
the file system changing from when a sample occurred and when the DSO
is sought.
Unlike the --buildid-mmap option, this chnage doesn't disable the
build ID cache but it does disable the processing of samples looking
for DSOs to inject build IDs for. To disable the build ID cache the -B
(--no-buildid) option should be used.
Making this option the default was raised on the list in:

patch add a new event type `PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED2`, which adds a field
`data_size` to specify the actual compressed data size.

'perf stat' has different uniquification logic to 'perf record' and perf
top. In the case of perf record and 'perf top' all hybrid event names
are uniquified.
'perf stat' is more disciplined respecting name config terms, libpfm4
events, etc.
'perf stat' will uniquify hybrid events and the non-core PMU cases
shouldn't apply to perf record or 'perf top'.
For consistency, remove the uniquification for 'perf record' and 'perf
top' and reuse the 'perf stat' uniquification, making the code more
globally visible for this.
Fix the detection of cross-PMU for disabling uniquify by correctly
setting last_pmu.
When setting uniquify on an evsel, make sure the PMUs between the 2
considered events differ otherwise the uniquify isn't adding value.

Specify the threshold for dumping offcpu samples with --off-cpu-thresh,
the unit is milliseconds. Default value is 500ms.
Example:
perf record --off-cpu --off-cpu-thresh 824

is longer than 824ms.

After commenting out the end off-cpu dump to have just the ones that are
added right after the task is scheduled back, and using a threshould of

Parse the off-cpu event using parse_event(), as bpf-output.
Call evlist__enable_evsel() on off-cpu event. This fixes the inability
to collect direct off-cpu samples on a workload, as reported by Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>.
The reason being, workload sets enable_on_exec instead of calling
evlist__enable(), but off-cpu event does not attach to an executable and
execve won't be called, so the fds from perf_event_open() are not
enabled.
no-inherit should be set to 1, here's the reason:
We update the BPF perf_event map for direct off-cpu sample dumping (in
following patches), it executes as follows:
bpf_map_update_value()
bpf_fd_array_map_update_elem()
perf_event_fd_array_get_ptr()
perf_event_read_local()
In perf_event_read_local(), there is:
int perf_event_read_local(struct perf_event *event, u64 *value,
u64 *enabled, u64 *running)
{
...
/*
* It must not be an event with inherit set, we cannot read
* all child counters from atomic context.
*/
if (event->attr.inherit) {
ret = -EOPNOTSUPP;
goto out;
}
Which means no-inherit has to be true for updating the BPF perf_event
map.
Moreover, for bpf-output events, we primarily want a system-wide event
instead of a per-task event.
The reason is that in BPF's bpf_perf_event_output(), BPF uses the CPU
index to retrieve the perf_event file descriptor it outputs to.
Making a bpf-output event system-wide naturally satisfies this
requirement by mapping CPU appropriately.

The BPF sideband information is tracked using a separate thread and
evlist. But it's only useful for profiling kernel and we can skip it
when users profile their application only.
It seems it already fails to open the sideband event in that case.
Let's remove the noise in the verbose output anyway.

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 <tavianator@tavianator.com> as about 2.5% when running `perf
script --itrace=i0`:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/d841b97b3ad2ca8bcab07e4293375fb7c32dfce7.1736618095.git.tavianator@tavianator.com/
Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> 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.

Add parsing for aux-action to accept "pause", "resume" or "start-paused"
values.
"start-paused" is valid only for AUX area events.
"pause" and "resume" are valid only for events grouped with an AUX area
event as the group leader. However, like with aux-output, the events
will be automatically grouped if they are not currently in a group, and
the AUX area event precedes the other events.

To allow BPF filters for unprivileged users it needs to pin the BPF
objects to BPF-fs first. Let's add a new option to pin and unpin the
objects easily. I'm not sure 'perf record' is a right place to do this
but I don't have a better idea right now.
$ sudo perf record --setup-filter pin
The above command would pin BPF program and maps for the filter when the
system has BPF-fs (usually at /sys/fs/bpf/). To unpin the objects,
users can run the following command (as root).
$ sudo perf record --setup-filter unpin

The evlist is allocated at the beginning of cmd_record(). Also free-ing
thread masks should be paired with record__init_thread_masks() which is
called right before __cmd_record().
Let's change the order of these functions to release the resources
correctly in case of errors. This is maybe fine as the process exits,
but it might be a problem if it manages some system-wide resources that
live longer than the process.

The session has a header in it which contains a perf env with
bpf_progs. The bpf_progs are accessed by the sideband thread and so
the sideband thread must be stopped before the session is deleted, to
avoid a use after free. This error was detected by AddressSanitizer

It's hard to distinguish the default cycles events among hybrid PMUs.
For example,
$ perf top
Available samples
385 cycles:P
903 cycles:P
The other tool, e.g., perf record, uniforms the event name and adds the
hybrid PMU name before opening the event. So the events can be easily
distinguished. Apply the same methodology for the perf top as well.
The evlist__uniquify_name() will be invoked by both record and top.
Move it to util/evlist.c
With the patch:
$ perf top
Available samples
148 cpu_atom/cycles:P/
1K cpu_core/cycles:P/

When the "cycles" event isn't available evsel will fallback to the
"cpu-clock" software event.
"task-clock" is similar to "cpu-clock" but only runs when the process is
running.
Falling back to "cpu-clock" when not system wide leads to confusion, by
falling back to "task-clock" it is hoped the confusion is less.
Pass the target to determine if "task-clock" is more appropriate.
Update a nearby comment and debug string for the change.

Zstd streams create dictionaries that can require significant RAM,
especially when there is one per-CPU. Tools like 'perf record' won't use
the streams without the -z option, and so the creation of the streams
is pure overhead. Switch to creating the streams on first use.
Committer notes:
ssize_t comes from sys/types.h, size_t from stddef.h. This worked on
glibc as stdlib.h includes both, but not on musl libc. So do what 'man
size_t' says and include sys/types.h and stddef.h instead of stdlib.h

Commit 5b7ba82a75915e73 ("perf symbols: Load kernel maps before using")
changed it so that loading a kernel DSO would cause the symbols for the
DSO to be eagerly loaded.
For 'perf record' this is overhead as the symbols won't be used. Add a
field to 'struct symbol_conf' to control the behavior and disable it for
'perf record' and 'perf inject'.

User space tasks can migrate between CPUs, we need to track side-band
events for all CPUs.
The specific scenarios are as follows:
CPU0 CPU1
perf record -C 0 start
taskA starts to be created and executed
-> PERF_RECORD_COMM and PERF_RECORD_MMAP
events only deliver to CPU1
......
|
migrate to CPU0
|
Running on CPU0 <----------/
...
perf record -C 0 stop
Now perf samples the PC of taskA. However, perf does not record the
PERF_RECORD_COMM and PERF_RECORD_MMAP events of taskA.
Therefore, the comm and symbols of taskA cannot be parsed.
The solution is to record sideband events for all CPUs when tracing
selected CPUs. Because this modifies the default behavior, add related
comments to the perf record man page.
The sys_perf_event_open invoked is as follows:
# perf --debug verbose=3 record -e cpu-clock -C 1 true
<SNIP>
