Sometimes we need to analyze the data in process level but current sort
keys only work on thread level. Let's add 'tgid' sort key for that as
'pid' is already taken for thread.
This will look mostly the same, but it only uses tgid instead of tid.
Here's an example of a process with two threads (thloop).
$ perf record -- perf test -w thloop
$ perf report --stdio -s tgid,pid -H

This is a breakdown of perf_mem_data_src.mem_lvl_num. But it's also
divided into two parts because the combination is bigger than 8.
Since there are many entries for different cache levels, 'cache' field
focuses on them. I generalized buffers like LFB, MAB and MHB to L1-buf
and L2-buf.
The rest goes to 'memory' field which can be RAM, CXL, PMEM, IO, etc.

This is an actual example of the he_mem_stat based sample breakdown. It
uses 'mem_op' field of union perf_mem_data_src which means memory
operations.
It'd have basically 'load' or 'store' which can be useful if PMU doesn't
have separate events for them like IBS or SPE. In addition, there's an
entry in case load and store happen at the same time. Also adds entries
for prefetching and execution.

This is a preparation for later changes to support mem_stat output. The
new fields will need two lines for the header - the first line will show
type of mem stat and the second line will show the name of each item
which is returned by mem_stat_name().
Each element in the mem_stat array will be printed in percentage for the
hist_entry and their sum would be 100%.
Add new output field dimension only for SORT_MODE__MEM using mem_stat.
To handle possible name conflict with existing sort keys, move the order
of checking output field dimensions after the sort dimensions when it
looks for sort keys.

Factor out a function to get the name of member field at the given
offset. This will be used in other places.
Also update the output of typeoff sort key a little bit. As we know
that some special types like (stack operation), (stack canary) and
(unknown) won't have fields, skip printing the offset and field.
For example, the following change is expected.
"(stack operation) +0 (no field)" ==> "(stack operation)"

Sometimes it's useful to organize member fields in cache-line boundary.
The 'typecln' sort key is short for type-cacheline and to show samples
in each cacheline. The cacheline size is fixed to 64 for now, but it
can read the actual size once it saves the value from sysfs.
For example, you maybe want to which cacheline in a target is hot or
cold. The following shows members in the cfs_rq's first cache line.
$ perf report -s type,typecln,typeoff -H

Committer notes:
Justification from Namhyung when asked about why it would be "better":
Cache line sizes are power of 2 so it'd be natural to use hex and
check whether an offset is in the same boundary. Also 'perf annotate'
shows instruction offsets in hex.

It's expected that both hist entries are in the same hists when
comparing two. But the current code in the function checks one without
dso sort key and other with the key. This would make the condition true
in any case.
I guess the intention of the original commit was to add '!' for the
right side too. But as it should be the same, let's just remove it.

Add weight1, weight2 and weight3 fields to -F/--fields and their aliases
like 'ins_lat', 'p_stage_cyc' and 'retire_lat'. Note that they are in
the sort keys too but the difference is that output fields will sum up
the weight values and display the average.
In the sort key, users can see the distribution of weight value and I
think it's confusing we have local vs. global weight for the same weight.
For example, I experiment with mem-loads events to get the weights. On
my laptop, it seems only weight1 field is supported.
$ perf mem record -- perf test -w noploop
Let's look at the noploop function only. It has 7 samples.
$ perf script -F event,ip,sym,weight | grep noploop
# event weight ip sym
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 43 55b3c122bffc noploop
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 48 55b3c122bffc noploop
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 38 55b3c122bffc noploop <--- same weight
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 38 55b3c122bffc noploop <--- same weight
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 59 55b3c122bffc noploop
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 33 55b3c122bffc noploop
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: 38 55b3c122bffc noploop <--- same weight
When you use the 'weight' sort key, it'd show entries with a separate
weight value separately. Also note that the first entry has 3 samples
with weight value 38, so they are displayed together and the weight
value is the sum of 3 samples (114 = 38 * 3).
$ perf report -n -s +weight | grep -e Weight -e noploop
# Overhead Samples Command Shared Object Symbol Weight
0.53% 3 perf perf [.] noploop 114
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 59
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 48
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 43
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 33
If you use 'local_weight' sort key, you can see the actual weight.
$ perf report -n -s +local_weight | grep -e Weight -e noploop
# Overhead Samples Command Shared Object Symbol Local Weight
0.53% 3 perf perf [.] noploop 38
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 59
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 48
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 43
0.18% 1 perf perf [.] noploop 33
But when you use the -F/--field option instead, you can see the average
weight for the while noploop function (as it won't group samples by
weight value and use the default 'comm,dso,sym' sort keys).
$ perf report -n -F +weight | grep -e Weight -e noploop
Warning:
--fields weight shows the average value unlike in the --sort key.
# Overhead Samples Weight1 Command Shared Object Symbol
1.23% 7 42.4 perf perf [.] noploop
The weight1 field shows the average value:
(38 * 3 + 59 + 48 + 43 + 33) / 7 = 42.4
Also it'd show the warning that 'weight' field has the average value.
Using 'weight1' can remove the warning.

Support data type annotation with new --data-type option. It internally
uses type sort key to collect sample histogram for the type and display
every members like below.
$ perf annotate --data-type
...
Annotate type: 'struct cfs_rq' in [kernel.kallsyms] (13 samples):
============================================================================
samples offset size field
13 0 640 struct cfs_rq {
2 0 16 struct load_weight load {
2 0 8 unsigned long weight;
0 8 4 u32 inv_weight;
};
0 16 8 unsigned long runnable_weight;
0 24 4 unsigned int nr_running;
1 28 4 unsigned int h_nr_running;
...
For simplicity it prints the number of samples per field for now.
But it should be easy to show the overhead percentage instead.
The number at the outer struct is a sum of the numbers of the inner
members. For example, struct cfs_rq got total 13 samples, and 2 came
from the load (struct load_weight) and 1 from h_nr_running. Similarly,
the struct load_weight got total 2 samples and they all came from the
weight field.
I've added two new flags in the symbol_conf for this. The
annotate_data_member is to get the members of the type. This is also
needed for perf report with typeoff sort key. The annotate_data_sample
is to update sample stats for each offset and used only in annotate.
Currently it only support stdio output mode, TUI support can be added
later.
Committer testing:
With the perf.data from the previous csets, a very simple, short
duration one:
# perf annotate --data-type
Annotate type: 'struct list_head' in [kernel.kallsyms] (1 samples):
============================================================================
samples offset size field
1 0 16 struct list_head {
0 0 8 struct list_head* next;
1 8 8 struct list_head* prev;
};
Annotate type: 'char' in [kernel.kallsyms] (1 samples):
============================================================================
samples offset size field
1 0 1 char ;

Add 'simd' sort field to visualize SIMD ops in 'perf report'.
Rows are labeled with the SIMD ISA, and the type of predicate (if any):
- [p] partial predicate
- [e] empty predicate (no elements in the vector being used)
Example with Arm SPE and SVE (Scalable Vector Extension):
#include <arm_sve.h>
double src[1025], dst[1025];
int main(void) {
svfloat64_t vc = svdup_f64(1);
for(;;)
for(int i = 0; i < 1025; i += svcntd())
{
svbool_t pg = svwhilelt_b64(i, 1025);
svfloat64_t vsrc = svld1(pg, &src[i]);
svfloat64_t vdst = svadd_x(pg, vsrc, vc);
svst1(pg, &dst[i], vdst);
}
return 0;
}
... compiled using "gcc-11 -march=armv8-a+sve -O3"
Profiling on a platform that implements FEAT_SVE and FEAT_SPEv1p1:
$ perf record -e arm_spe_0// -- ./a.out
$ perf report --itrace=i1i -s overhead,pid,simd,sym
Overhead Pid:Command Simd Symbol
........ ................ ....... ......................
53.76% 10758:program [.] main
46.14% 10758:program [.] SVE [.] main
0.09% 10758:program [p] SVE [.] main
The report shows 0.09% of the sampled SVE operations use partial
predicates due to src and dst arrays not being multiples of the vector
register lengths.

Many platforms have feature of adjacent cachelines prefetch, when it is
enabled, for data in RAM of 2 cachelines (2N and 2N+1) granularity, if
one is fetched to cache, the other one could likely be fetched too,
which sort of extends the cacheline size to double, thus the false
sharing could happens in adjacent cachelines.
0Day has captured performance changed related with this [1], and some
commercial software explicitly makes its hot global variables 128 bytes
aligned (2 cache lines) to avoid this kind of extended false sharing.
So add an option "--double-cl" for 'perf c2c report' to show false
sharing in double cache line granularity, which acts just like the
cacheline size is doubled. There is no change to c2c record. The
hardware events of shared cacheline are still per cacheline, and this
option just changes the granularity of how events are grouped and
displayed.
In the 'perf c2c report' output below (will-it-scale's 'pagefault2' case
on old kernel):

Removed -a, leaving just as --double-cl, as this probably is not used so
frequently and perhaps will be even auto-detected if we manage to record
the MSR where this is configured.

The Retire Latency field is added in the var3_w of the
PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT. The Retire Latency reports pipeline stall of
this instruction compared to the previous instruction in cycles. That's
quite useful to display the information with perf mem report.
The p_stage_cyc for Power is also from the var3_w. Union the p_stage_cyc
and retire_lat to share the code.
Implement X86 specific codes to display the X86 specific header.
Add a new sort key retire_lat for the Retire Latency.
