[v6: Rebase. Add acked by from Namhyung and address feedback. Some minor
fixes. Should be good to go now I hope. The period patch was dropped,
as that is already handled. I added an extra patch for a --quiet argument
for perf list]
perf has high level events which are useful in many cases. However
there are some tuning situations where low level events in the CPU
are needed. Traditionally this required specifying the event in
raw form (very awkward) or using non standard frontends
like ocperf or patching in libpfm.
Intel CPUs can have very large event files (Haswell has ~336 core events,
much more if you add uncore or all the offcore combinations), which is too
large to describe through the kernel interface. It would require tying up
significant amounts of unswappable memory for this.
oprofile always had separate event list files that were maintained by
the CPU vendors. The oprofile events were shipped with the tool.
The Intel events get updated regularly, for example to add references
to the specification updates or add new events.
Unfortunately oprofile usually did not keep up with these updates,
so the events in oprofile were often out of date. In addition
it ties up quite a bit of disk space, mostly for CPUs you don't have.
This patch kit implements another mechanism that avoids these problems.
Intel releases the event lists for CPUs in a standardized JSON format
on a download server.
I implemented an automatic downloader to get the event file for the
current CPU. The events are stored in ~/.cache/pmu-events.
Then perf adds a parser that converts the JSON format into perf event
aliases, which then can be used directly as any other perf event.
The parsing is done using a simple existing JSON library.
The events are still abstracted for perf, but the abstraction mechanism is
through the downloaded file instead of through the kernel.
The JSON format and perf parser has some minor Intelisms, but they
are simple and small and optional. It's easy to extend, so it would be
possible to use it for other CPUs too, add different pmu attributes, and
add new download sites to the downloader tool.
Currently only core events are supported, uncore may come at a later
point. No kernel changes, all code in perf user tools only.
Some of the parser files are partially shared with separate event parser
library and are thus 2-clause BSD licensed.

From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>
When no JSON event file is specified automatically look
for a suitable file in ~/.cache/pmu-events. A "perf download" can
automatically add files there for the current CPUs.
This does not include the actual event files with perf,
but they can be automatically downloaded instead
(implemented in the next patch)
This has the advantage that the events can be always uptodate,
because they are freshly downloaded. In oprofile we always
had problems with out of date or incomplete events files.
The event file format is per architecture, but can be
extended for other architectures.
v2: Supports XDG_CACHE_HOME and defaults to ~/.cache/pmu-events
v3: Minor updates and handle EVENTMAP.

1.9.3
From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>
Add a downloader to automatically download the right
files from a download site.
This is implemented as a script calling wget, similar to
perf archive. The perf driver automatically calls the right
binary. The downloader is extensible, but currently only
implements an Intel event download. It would be straightforward
to add other sites too for other vendors.
The downloaded event files are put into ~/.cache/pmu-events, where the
builtin event parser in util/* can find them automatically.
v2: Use ~/.cache
v3: Check for wget. Some cleanups.
v4: Improve manpage.

+perf-download - Download event files for current CPU.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+'perf download' [vendor-family-model]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+This command automatically downloads the event list for the current CPU and
+stores them in $XDG_CACHE_HOME/pmu-events (or $HOME/.cache/pmu-events).
+The other tools automatically look for them there. The CPU can be also
+specified at the command line.
+
+The downloading is done using http through wget, which needs
+to be installed. When behind a firewall the proxies
+may also need to be set up using "export https_proxy=...."
+
+The user should regularly call this to download updated event lists
+for the current CPU.
+
+Note the downloaded files are stored per user, so if perf is
+used as both normal user and with sudo the event files may
+also need to be moved to root's home directory with
+sudo mkdir /root/.cache ; sud cp -r ~/.cache/pmu-events /root/.cache
+after downloading.

From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>
Add a simple test case to perf test that runs perf download and parses
all the available events, including json events.
This needs adding an all event iterator to pmu.c

1.9.3
From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>
Add a parser for Intel style JSON event files. This allows
to use an Intel event list directly with perf. The Intel
event lists can be quite large and are too big to store
in unswappable kernel memory.
The parser code knows how to convert the JSON fields
to perf fields. The conversion code is straight forward.
It knows (very little) Intel specific information, and can be easily
extended to handle fields for other CPUs.
The parser code is partially shared with an independent parsing
library, which is 2-clause BSD licenced. To avoid any conflicts I marked
those files as BSD licenced too. As part of perf they become GPLv2.
The events are handled using the existing alias machinery.
We output the BriefDescription in perf list.
Right now the json file can be specified as an argument
to perf stat/record/list. Followon patches will automate this.
JSON files look like this:
[
{
"EventCode": "0x00",
"UMask": "0x01",
"EventName": "INST_RETIRED.ANY",
"BriefDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.",
"PublicDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.",
"Counter": "Fixed counter 1",
"CounterHTOff": "Fixed counter 1",
"SampleAfterValue": "2000003",
"MSRIndex": "0",
"MSRValue": "0",
"TakenAlone": "0",
"CounterMask": "0",
"Invert": "0",
"AnyThread": "0",
"EdgeDetect": "0",
"PEBS": "0",
"PRECISE_STORE": "0",
"Errata": "null",
"Offcore": "0"
},
v2: Address review feedback. Rename option to --event-files
v3: Add JSON example

1.9.3
From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>
I need a JSON parser. This adds the simplest JSON
parser I could find -- Serge Zaitsev's jsmn `jasmine' --
to the perf library. I merely converted it to (mostly)
Linux style and added support for non 0 terminated input.
The parser is quite straight forward and does not
copy any data, just returns tokens with offsets
into the input buffer. So it's relatively efficient
and simple to use.
The code is not fully checkpatch clean, but I didn't
want to completely fork the upstream code.
Original source: http://zserge.bitbucket.org/jsmn.html
In addition I added a simple wrapper that mmaps a json
file and provides some straight forward access functions.
Used in follow-on patches to parse event files.
v2: Address review feedback.
v3: Minor checkpatch fixes.

1.9.3
From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>
Add a --quiet flag to perf list to not print the event descriptions
that were earlier added for JSON events. This may be useful to
get a less crowded listing.
It's still default to print descriptions as that is the more useful
default for most users. Requested by Namhyung Kim.
Before:
% perf list
...
baclears.any [Counts the total number when the front end is
resteered, mainly when the BPU cannot provide a
correct prediction and this is corrected by other
branch handling mechanisms at the front end]
br_inst_exec.all_branches [Speculative and retired branches]
After:
% perf list --quiet
...
baclears.any [Kernel PMU event]
br_inst_exec.all_branches [Kernel PMU event]

1.9.3
From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>
The Intel events use a dot to separate event name and unit mask.
Allow dot in names in the scanner, and remove special handling
of dot as EOF. Also remove the hack in jevents to replace dot
with underscore. This way dotted events can be specified
directly by the user.
I'm not fully sure this change to the scanner is correct
(what was the dot special case good for?), but I haven't
found anything that breaks with it so far at least.

Probably too late, but IMHO the subcommand "download" is unhappy
named. What is "downloaded"? traces? Python helper libs for
perf-python support, I don't know it. What about "events-download",
"events-database", ...
I also thought about further sub-command to delete the cache, update
the cache, limit pull to specific vendors, ... I know this is the
first shot and further subcommands can be added. But we will end up in
something like
E.g.:
perf events-download pull
perf events-download pull --vendor amd
perf events-download update
perf events-download purge

I prefer just download.

The sub commands don't make a lot of sense, as the event list is only
useful for the current system.

Hmm.. maybe we can add support something like above later - "perf
download event" or "perf download blabla".
But I have a different idea - leaving perf download as a plumbing tool,
and add --download option into the perf list to call it internally.
Maybe it can automatically download event file if it didn't find the
file in the local cache.

Looks like 'event-cache' is a more appropriate name IMHO.
Anyway, thank you for the thought and suggestion. :)
Thanks,

Did I request the --quiet thing? It seems like there's a
miscommunication.. :-/
I still prefer -v option and not printing descriptions by default - but
want to inform users to use -v option. However I also want to hear from
others on this.
Btw, it'd better if it can support event glob on the pmu events (or
simply all events) too as this will increase the number of events
significantly. But this can be a further work.

Sorry I think that's all overdesigning. Designing for unknown
possibilities is usually a bad idea.
In the unlikely case that something else was ever downloaded a new command
can be added.

That would be syntactical vinegar.

That wasn't done intentionally, so that people who don't want
network accesses don't get them.

Well it was done based on your feedback, and gets the closest
to your original request as possible.

That already works.

Hey Andi, Namhyung,
intention was just to raise hands, later there is probably no
possibility to change the command name without breaking scripts.
Anyway, the whole mechanism is awesome! ;-)

Hi Andi,
Couple of questions/comments about EVENTMAP and the "core" suffix.
Is EVENTMAP a new environment variable ? If specific to PERF, should
we prefix it with "PERF_" to avoid collision?
Would all/many architectures need this "-core" suffix or is that Intel
specific ?
Is the intent that architectures that don't need this should simply
never set EVENTMAP variable ?

As with XDG_CACHE_HOME in perf-download.txt, can you please add a note

It's not perf specific, but shared with other tools (e.g. pmu-tools)

You don't need it, just specify a full name.
> Is the intent that architectures that don't need this should simply
> never set EVENTMAP variable ?
Any architecture can use EVENTMAP, it just points to a json file.

I dont mind descriptions by default, but 'quiet' seems more generic
than what it does now ... how about '--no-desc'
