When using -G with one cgroup and -e with multiple events, only the
first event gets the correct cgroup setting, all events from the second
onwards will track system-wide events.

If the user wants to track multiple events for a specific cgroup, the
user must give parameters like the following:

  $ perf stat -e e1 -e e2 -e e3 -G test,test,test

This patch simplify this case, just type one cgroup:

  $ perf stat -e e1 -e e2 -e e3 -G test

  $ mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/perf_event/empty_cgroup
  $ perf stat -e cycles -e cache-misses -a -I 1000 -G empty_cgroup

Before:

     1.001007226   <not counted>      cycles	   empty_cgroup
     1.001007226           7,506      cache-misses

After:

     1.000834097   <not counted>      cycles	   empty_cgroup
     1.000834097   <not counted>      cache-misses empty_cgroup

First, all man pages highlight only perf and subcommands except 'perf
kallsyms', which includes the full usage. Fix it for commands to
monopolize underlines.

Second, options can be ommited when executing 'perf kallsyms', so add
square brackets between <option>.

Introduce a new option to print counts after N milliseconds and update
'perf stat' documentation accordingly.

Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat.

  $ perf stat --time 2000 -e cycles -a
  Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

        157,260,423      cycles

        2.003060766 seconds time elapsed

We can print the count deltas after N milliseconds with this new
introduced option. This option is not supported with "-I" option.

In addition, according to Kangliang's patch(19afd104), the
monitoring overhead for system-wide core event could be very high if the
interval-print parameter was below 100ms, and the limitation value is
10ms.

So the same warning will be displayed when the time is set between 10ms
to 100ms, and the minimal time is limited to 10ms. Users can make a
decision according to their spcific cases.

Committer notes:

This actually stops the workload after the specified time, then prints
the counts.

So I renamed the option to --timeout and updated the documentation to
state that it will not just print the counts after the specified time,
but will really stop the 'perf stat' session and print the counts.

The rename from 'time' to 'timeout' also fixes the build in systems
where 'time' is used by glibc and can't be used as a name of a variable,
such as centos:5 and centos:6.

Changes since v3:
- none.

Changes since v2:
- modify the time check in __run_perf_stat func to keep some consistency
  with the workload case.
- add the warning when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms.
- add the pr_err when the time is set below 10ms.

Changes since v1:
- none.

Introduce a new option to print counts for fixed number of times and
update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly.

Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat.

  $ perf stat -I 1000 --interval-count 2 -e cycles -a
  #           time             counts unit events
           1.002827089         93,884,870      cycles
           2.004231506         56,573,446      cycles

We can just print the counts for several times with this newly
introduced option. The usage of it is a little like 'vmstat', and it
should be used together with "-I" option.

  $ vmstat -n 1 2
  procs ---------memory-------------- --swap- ----io-- -system-- ------cpu---
   r  b swpd   free   buff   cache    si   so  bi   bo  in   cs us sy id wa st

Changes since v3:
- merge interval_count check and times check to one line.
- fix the wrong indent in stat.h
- use stat_config.times instead of 'times' in cmd_stat function.

Changes since v2:
- none.

Changes since v1:
- change the name of the new option "times-print" to "interval-count".
- keep the new option interval specifically.

Add support to display group output for if non grouped events are
detected and user forces --group option. Now for non-group events
recorded like:

  $ perf record -e 'cycles,instructions' ls

you can still get group output by using --group option
in report:

  $ perf report --group --stdio
  ...
  #         Overhead  Command  Shared Object     Symbol
  # ................  .......  ................  ......................
  #
      17.67%   0.00%  ls       libc-2.25.so      [.] _IO_do_write@@GLIB

      15.41%  31.35%  ls       libc-2.25.so      [.] __strcoll_l
  ...

Committer note:

We should improve on this by making sure that the first line states that
this is not a group, but since the user doesn't have to force group view
when really using grouped events (e.g. '{cycles,instructions}'), the
user better know what is being done...

Similar to --tasks, producing the same output plus /proc/<PID>/maps
similar lines for each mmap record present in a perf.data file.

Please note that not all mmaps are stored, for instance, some of the
non-executable mmaps are only stored when 'perf record --data' is used,
when the user wants to resolve data accesses in addition to asking for
executable mmaps to get the DSO with symtabs.

perf script has a --time option to limit the time range of output.  It
only supports absolute time.

Now this option is extended to support multiple time ranges and support
the percent of time.

For example:

1. Select the first and second 10% time slices:

   perf script --time 10%/1,10%/2

2. Select from 0% to 10% and 30% to 40% slices:

   perf script --time 0%-10%,30%-40%

Changelog:

v6: Fix the merge issue with latest perf/core branch.
    No functional changes.

v5: Add checking of first/last sample time to detect if it's recorded
    in perf.data. If it's not recorded, returns error message to user.

v4: Remove perf_time__skip_sample, only uses perf_time__ranges_skip_sample

v3: Since the definitions of first_sample_time/last_sample_time
    are moved from perf_session to perf_evlist so change the

In the default 'perf record' configuration, all samples are processed,
to create the HEADER_BUILD_ID table. So it's very easy to get the
first/last samples and save the time to perf file header via the
function write_sample_time().

Later, at post processing time, perf report/script will fetch the time
from perf file header.

Changelog:

v7: Just update the patch description according to Arnaldo's suggestion.

v6: Currently '--buildid-all' is not enabled at default. So the walking
    on all samples is the default operation. There is no big overhead
    to calculate the timestamp boundary in process_sample_event handler
    once we already go through all samples. So the timestamp boundary
    calculation is enabled by default when '--buildid-all' is not enabled.

    While if '--buildid-all' is enabled, we creates a new option
    "--timestamp-boundary" for user to decide if it enables the
    timestamp boundary calculation.

v5: There is an issue that the sample walking can only work when
    '--buildid-all' is not enabled. So we need to let the walking
    be able to work even if '--buildid-all' is enabled and let the
    processing skips the dso hit marking for this case.

    At first, I want to provide a new option "--record-time-boundaries".
    While after consideration, I think a new option is not very
    necessary.

v3: Remove the definitions of first_sample_time and last_sample_time
    from struct record and directly save them in perf_evlist.

perf report/script/... have a --time option to limit the time range of
output. That's very useful to slice large traces, e.g. when processing
the output of perf script for some analysis.

But right now --time only supports absolute time. Also there is no fast
way to get the start/end times of a given trace except for looking at
it.  This makes it hard to e.g. only decode the first half of the trace,
which is useful for parallelization of scripts

Another problem is that perf records are variable size and there is no
synchronization mechanism. So the only way to find the last sample
reliably would be to walk all samples. But we want to avoid that in perf
report/...  because it is already quite expensive. That is why storing
the first sample time and last sample time in perf record is better.

This patch creates a new header feature type HEADER_SAMPLE_TIME and
related ops. Save the first sample time and the last sample time to the
feature section in perf file header. That will be done when, for
instance, processing build-ids, where we already have to process all
samples to create the build-id table, take advantage of that to further
amortize that processing by storing HEADER_SAMPLE_TIME to make 'perf
report/script' faster when using --time.

Committer testing:

After this patch is applied the header is written with zeroes, we need
the next patch, for "perf record" to actually write the timestamps:

  # perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE\(
  22501155244406 0x44f0 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4001): 25016/25016: 0xffffffffa21be8c5 period: 1 addr: 0

  22501155793625 0x4a30 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4001): 25016/25016: 0xffffffffa21ffd50 period: 2828043 addr: 0
  # perf report --header | grep "time of "
  # time of first sample : 0.000000
  # time of last sample : 0.000000
  #

Changelog:

v7: 1. Rebase to latest perf/core branch.

    2. Add following clarification in patch description according to
       Arnaldo's suggestion.

       "That will be done when, for instance, processing build-ids,
	where we already have to process all samples to create the
	build-id table, take advantage of that to further amortize
	that processing by storing HEADER_SAMPLE_TIME to make

v4: Use perf script time style for timestamp printing. Also add with
    the printing of sample duration.

v3: Remove the definitions of first_sample_time/last_sample_time from
    perf_session. Just define them in perf_evlist

Add support for computing 'perf stat' style metrics in 'perf script'.

When using leader sampling we can get metrics for each sampling period
by computing formulas over the values of the different group members.

This allows things like fine grained IPC tracking through sampling, much
more fine grained than with 'perf stat'.

The metric is still averaged over the sampling period, it is not just
for the sampling point.

This patch adds a new metric output field for 'perf script' that uses
the existing 'perf stat' metrics infrastructure to compute any metrics
supported by 'perf stat'.

For example to sample IPC:

  $ perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles,instructions}:S' -a sleep 1
  $ perf script -F metric,ip,sym,time,cpu,comm

This requires disabling SMT if you have it enabled, because SMT would
require sampling per core, which is not supported.

v2:
Use evsel->priv for new fields
Port to new base line, support fp output.
Handle stats in ->stats, not ->priv
Minor cleanups

Extra explanation about the use of the term 'averaging', from Andi in the
thread in the Link: tag below:

<quote Andi>
The current samples contains the sum of event counts for a sampling period.

EventA-1           EventA-2                EventA-3      EventA-4
EventB-1     EventB-2                             EventC-3

                         gap with no events                overflow
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
period-start                                             period-end
^                                                                 ^
|                                                                 |
previous sample                                      current sample

So EventA = 4 and EventB = 3 at the sample point

I generate a metric, let's say EventA / EventB. It applies to the whole period.

But the metric is over a longer time which does not have the same behavior. For
example the gap above doesn't have any events, while they are clustered at the
beginning and end of the sample period.

But we're summing everything together. The metric doesn't know that the gap is
different than the busy period.

That's what I'm trying to express with averaging.

Introduce a new option to dump trace output to files named by the
monitored events and update perf-script documentation accordingly.

Shown below is output of perf script command with the newly introduced
option.

         $ perf record -e cycles -e cs -ag -- sleep 1
         $ perf script --per-event-dump
         $ ls
         perf.data.cycles.dump perf.data.cs.dump

Without per-event-dump support, drawing flamegraphs for different events
would require post processing to separate events. You can monitor only
one event at a time if you want to get flamegraphs for different events.
Using this option, you can get the trace output files named by the
monitored events, and could draw flamegraphs according to the event's
name.

Now that we have caches in place to speed up the process of finding
inlined frames and srcline information repeatedly, we can enable this
useful option by default.
