This commit adds support for a new modifier "D", which requests that the event, or group of events, be pinned to the PMU. The "p" modifier is already taken for precise, and "P" may be used in future to mean "fully precise". So we use "D", which stands for pinneD - and looks like a padlock, or if you're using the ":D" syntax perf smiles at you. This is an oft-requested feature from our HW folks, who want to be able to run a large number of events, but also want 100% accurate results for instructions per cycle. Comparison of results with and without pinning: $ perf stat -e '{cycles,instructions}:D' -e cycles,instructions,... 79,590,480,683 cycles # 0.000 GHz 166,123,716,524 instructions # 2.09 insns per cycle # 0.11 stalled cycles per insn 79,352,134,463 cycles # 0.000 GHz [11.11%] 165,178,301,818 instructions # 2.08 insns per cycle # 0.11 stalled cycles per insn [11.13%] As you can see although perf does a very good job of scaling the values in the non-pinned case, there is some small discrepancy. The patch is fairly straight forward, the one detail is that we need to make sure we only request pinning for the group leader when we have a group.

Adding 'S' event/group modifier to specify that the event value/s are read by PERF_SAMPLE_READ sample type processing, instead of the period value offered by lower layers. There's additional behaviour change for 'S' modifier being specified on event group: Currently all the events within a group makes samples. If user now specifies 'S' within group modifier, only the leader will trigger samples. The rest of events in the group will have sampling disabled. And same as for single events, values of all events within the group (including leader) are read by PERF_SAMPLE_READ sample type processing. Following example will create event group with cycles and cache-misses events, setting the cycles as group leader and the only event to actually sample. Both cycles and cache-misses event period values are read by PERF_SAMPLE_READ sample type processing with PERF_FORMAT_GROUP read format. Example: $ perf record -e '{cycles,cache-misses}:S' ls ... $ perf report --group --show-total-period --stdio ... # Samples: 36 of event 'anon group { cycles, cache-misses }' # Event count (approx.): 12585593 # # Overhead Period Command Shared Object Symbol # .............. .............. ....... ................. .......................... # 19.92% 1.20% 2505936 31 ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] mark_held_locks 13.74% 0.47% 1729327 12 ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sched_clock_local 13.64% 23.72% 1716147 612 ls ld-2.14.90.so [.] check_match.10805 13.12% 23.22% 1650778 599 ls libc-2.14.90.so [.] _nl_intern_locale_data 11.24% 29.19% 1414554 753 ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sched_clock_cpu 8.50% 0.35% 1070150 9 ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] check_chain_key ...

perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking unused variables. The variable __used is defined to __attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to __attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning: '__used__' attribute ignored __unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition. If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name in its headers. The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android. This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with __maybe_unused.

Use command line string provided by the -e option to name events. This way we get unique events names that also support pmu event syntax (<pmu_name>/<config>/<modifier>). No need to reconstruct the name anymore from its attributes. We use the event_desc of the header to store the name in the perf.data header. Thus it is also available for perf report. Implemented by putting the parser in different states to parse events or configs. And since event names are now generated from the command line specification. Update event names in test cases accordingly.

Adding scanner/parser bits to parse event groups. The grammar for group is: groups: groups ',' group | group group: group_name '{' events '}' group_mod group_name: name | empty group_mod: ':' group_mods | empty group_mods: event_mod It's possible to use standard event modifier as a modifier for group. It'll be used as an update to existing event modifiers. It's necessary to use quoting ("'\) when specifying group on command line, since {} characters are interpreted by most of the shells. It is now possible to specify groups in event syntax like: '{cycles,faults}' - anonymous group 'group1{cycles,faults} - group with name 'group1' '{cycles,faults}:k - anonymous group with event modifier 'k' '{cpu-clock,task-clock},{minor-faults,major-faults}' - two anonymous groups The grouping functionality itself is coming shortly.

We want to reuse the event grammar for parsing aliased terms. The obvious reason is we dont need to add new code when there's already support for this in event grammar. Doing this by adding terms and event start entries into event parse grammar. The grammar forks on the begining based on the starting token, which is supplied via bison interface into the lexer. The lexer then returns the starting token as the first token, thus making the grammar switch accordingly. Currently 2 starting tokens/grammars are supported: PE_START_TERMS, PE_START_EVENTS The PE_START_TERMS related grammar uses 'event_config' part of the grammar for term parsing.
