Fix a bug in del_perf_probe_events() which returns an error (-ENOENT)
even if the probes are successfully deleted.
This happens only if the probes are on user-apps and not on kernel,
simply because it doesn't clear the previous error.
So, without this fix, we get an error even though events are being
successfully removed.
------
# ./perf probe -x ./perf del_perf_probe_events
Added new event:
probe_perf:del_perf_probe_events (on del_perf_probe_events in ...
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_perf:del_perf_probe_events -aR sleep 1
# ./perf probe -d \*:\*
Removed event: probe_perf:del_perf_probe_events
Error: Failed to delete events.
------
This fixes the above error.
------
# ./perf probe -d \*:\*
Removed event: probe_perf:del_perf_probe_events

Show the reason of error when dso__load* fails. This shows when user

Without this, perf probe shows an obscure message:

With this, perf shows appropriate error message:

Disallow PMU events intel_pt and intel_bts until the tools support them.
By default any PMU is selectable as an event but until the tools have
intel_pt and intel_bts support using them would result in no data being
recorded without any indication as to why.
Before the change:
$ perf record -e intel_bts// sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.008 MB perf.data ]
$ perf report --stdio
Error:

After the change:
$ perf record -e intel_bts// sleep 1
invalid or unsupported event: 'intel_bts//'
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

Sometimes when debugging large multi-threaded applications it is helpful
to collate all of the latency numbers into one bulk record to get an
idea of what is going on.
This patch does this by merging any entries that belong to the same comm
into one entry and then spits out those totals.
I've also slightly changed the output so you can see how many threads
were merged in the processing. Here is the new default output format

I was assuming rb_erase() was setting things up like list_del_init, but
the fact that thread__delete() was being sucessfull is because the last
thing before deleting is to remove the thread from the
machine->dead_threads list, using list_del_init(), that has the same
effect as using rb_erase_init()...
Introduce this function so that we can use it when removing objects from
rb_trees.
Then we will be able to BUG_ON(still on a list) in destructors.

perf_session__peek_event() generally leverages there being a single mmap
of the perf.data file, however on 32-bit platforms when there is more
that 32MiB of data, then there are multiple mmaps, so
perf_session__peek_event() reads from the file.
In that case a couple of bugs were exposed (note how the seg. fault
appears with >32M of data):
$ perf record --per-thread -e intel_bts// ../rtit-tests/loopy 1000000
[ perf record: Woken up 13 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 24.568 MB perf.data ]
$ perf script > /dev/null
$ perf record --per-thread -e intel_bts// ../rtit-tests/loopy 10000000
[ perf record: Woken up 136 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 270.794 MB perf.data ]
$ perf script > /dev/null
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
The wrong address was being passed to the readn() function and the
buffer size was not being checked.

Patch "perf tools: Add location to pmu event terms" moved declarations
for parse_events_term__num() and parse_events_term__str() so that they
were no longer visible in parse-events.y. That can result in segfaults
as the arguments no longer need match the function prototype.
Move the declarations back, changing YYLTYPE pointers to
pointers-to-void because YYLTYPE is not generated until parse-events.y
is processed.

For some obscure reason intel_{start,stop}_scheduling() copy the HT
state to an intermediate array. This would make sense if we ever were
to make changes to it which we'd have to discard.
Except we don't. By the time we call intel_commit_scheduling() we're;
as the name implies; committed to them. We'll never back out.
A further hint its pointless is that stop_scheduling() unconditionally
publishes the state.
So the intermediate array is pointless, modify the state in place and
kill the extra array.
And remove the pointless array initialization: INTEL_EXCL_UNUSED == 0.
Note; all is serialized by intel_excl_cntr::lock.

Both intel_commit_scheduling() and intel_get_excl_contraints() test
for cntr < 0.
The only way that can happen (aside from a bug) is through
validate_event(), however that is already captured by the
cpuc->is_fake test.
So remove these test and simplify the code.

The intel_commit_scheduling() callback is pointlessly different from
the start and stop scheduling callback.
Furthermore, the constraint should never be NULL, so remove that test.
Even though we'll never get called (because we NULL the callbacks)
when !is_ht_workaround_enabled() put that test in.
Collapse the (pointless) WARN_ON_ONCE() and bail on !cpuc->excl_cntrs --
this is doubly pointless, because its the same condition as
is_ht_workaround_enabled() which was already pointless because the
whole method won't ever be called.
Furthremore, make all the !excl_cntrs test WARN_ON_ONCE(); they're all
pointless, because the above, either the function
({get,put}_excl_constraint) are already predicated on it existing or
the is_ht_workaround_enabled() thing is the same test.

We have two 'struct event_constraint' local variables in
intel_get_excl_constraints(): 'cx' and 'c'.
Instead of using 'cx' after the dynamic allocation, put all 'cx' inside
the dynamic allocation block and use 'c' outside of it.
Also use direct assignment to copy the structure; let the compiler
figure it out.

I stumbled upon an AMD box that had the BIOS using a hardware performance
counter. Instead of printing out a warning and continuing, it failed and
blocked further perf counter usage.
Looking through the history, I found this commit:
a5ebe0ba3d ("perf/x86: Check all MSRs before passing hw check")
which tweaked the rules for a Xen guest on an almost identical box and now
changed the behaviour.
Unfortunately the rules were tweaked incorrectly and will always lead to
MSR failures even though the MSRs are completely fine.
What happens now is in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event.c::check_hw_exists():
<snip>
for (i = 0; i < x86_pmu.num_counters; i++) {
reg = x86_pmu_config_addr(i);
ret = rdmsrl_safe(reg, &val);
if (ret)
goto msr_fail;
if (val & ARCH_PERFMON_EVENTSEL_ENABLE) {
bios_fail = 1;
val_fail = val;
reg_fail = reg;
}
}
<snip>
/*
* Read the current value, change it and read it back to see if it
* matches, this is needed to detect certain hardware emulators
* (qemu/kvm) that don't trap on the MSR access and always return 0s.
*/
reg = x86_pmu_event_addr(0);
^^^^
if the first perf counter is enabled, then this routine will always fail
because the counter is running. :-(
if (rdmsrl_safe(reg, &val))
goto msr_fail;
val ^= 0xffffUL;
ret = wrmsrl_safe(reg, val);
ret |= rdmsrl_safe(reg, &val_new);
if (ret || val != val_new)
goto msr_fail;
The above bios_fail used to be a 'goto' which is why it worked in the past.
Further, most vendors have migrated to using fixed counters to hide their
evilness hence this problem rarely shows up now days except on a few old boxes.
I fixed my problem and kept the spirit of the original Xen fix, by recording a
safe non-enable register to be used safely for the reading/writing check.
Because it is not enabled, this passes on bare metal boxes (like metal), but
should continue to throw an msr_fail on Xen guests because the register isn't
emulated yet.
Now I get a proper bios_fail error message and Xen should still see their
msr_fail message (untested).
