perf tools: Do not set exclude_guest for precise_ip

It seems perf sets the exclude_guest bit because of Intel PEBS
implementation which uses a virtual address. IIUC now kernel disables
PEBS when it goes to the guest mode regardless of this bit so we don't
need to set it explicitly. At least for the other archs/vendors.

I found the commit 1342798cc13e set the exclude_guest for precise_ip
in the tool and the commit 20b279ddb38c added kernel side enforcement
which was reverted by commit a706d965dcfd later.

Actually it doesn't set the exclude_guest for the default event
(cycles:P) already.

$ grep -m1 vendor /proc/cpuinfo
vendor_id : GenuineIntel

$ perf record -e cycles:P true
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.002 MB perf.data (9 samples) ]

$ perf evlist -v | tr ',' '\n' | grep -e exclude -e precise
precise_ip: 3

But having lower 'p' modifier set the bit for some reason.

$ perf record -e cycles:pp true
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.002 MB perf.data (9 samples) ]

$ perf evlist -v | tr ',' '\n' | grep -e exclude -e precise
precise_ip: 2
exclude_guest: 1

Actually AMD IBS suffers from this because it doesn't support excludes
and having this bit effectively disables new features in the current
implementation (due to the missing feature check).

$ grep -m1 vendor /proc/cpuinfo
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD

$ perf record -W -e cycles:p -vv true 2>&1 | grep switching
switching off PERF_FORMAT_LOST support
switching off weight struct support
switching off bpf_event
switching off ksymbol
switching off cloexec flag
switching off mmap2
switching off exclude_guest, exclude_host

By not setting exclude_guest, we can fix this inconsistency and the
troubles.

perf tools: Don't set attr.exclude_guest by default

The exclude_guest in the event attribute is to limit profiling in the
host environment. But I'm not sure why we want to set it by default
cause we don't care about it in most cases and I feel like it just
makes new PMU implementation complicated.

Of course it's useful for perf kvm command so I added the
exclude_GH_default variable to preserve the old behavior for perf kvm
and other commands like perf record and stat won't set the exclude bit.
This is helpful for AMD IBS case since having exclude_guest bit will
clear new feature bit due to the missing feature check logic.

$ sysctl kernel.perf_event_paranoid
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = 0

$ perf record -W -e ibs_op// -vv true 2>&1 | grep switching
switching off PERF_FORMAT_LOST support
switching off weight struct support
switching off bpf_event
switching off ksymbol
switching off cloexec flag
switching off mmap2
switching off exclude_guest, exclude_host

Intestingly, I found it sets the exclude_bit if "u" modifier is used.
I don't know why but it's neither intuitive nor consistent. Let's
remove the bit there too.

The default breakpoint length is "sizeof(long)" however this is
incorrect on platforms like Aarch64 where sizeof(long) is 8 but the
breakpoint length is 4. Add a helper function that can be used to
determine the correct breakpoint length, in this change it just
returns the existing default sizeof(long) value.

Use the helper in the bp_account test so that, when modifying the
event from a watchpoint to a breakpoint, the breakpoint length is
appropriate for the architecture and not just sizeof(long).

Fixes to make hybrid/BIG.little PMUs behave correctly, ie as core PMUs
capable of opening legacy events on each, removing hard coded "cpu_core"
and "cpu_atom" Intel PMU names, etc. caused a behavioral difference on
Apple/ARM due to latent issues in the PMU driver reported in:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/

As part of that report Mark Rutland <[email protected]> requested
that legacy events not be higher in priority when a PMU is specified
reversing what has until this change been perf's default behavior. With
this change the above becomes:

$ perf stat -e cpu-cycles,cpu/cpu-cycles/ true
Using CPUID GenuineIntel-6-8D-1
Attempt to add: cpu/cpu-cycles=0/
..after resolving event: cpu/event=0x3c/

exclude_guest 1
------------------------------------------------------------
...

So the second event has become a raw event as
/sys/devices/cpu/events/cpu-cycles exists.

A fix was necessary to config_term_pmu in parse-events.c as check_alias
expansion needs to happen after config_term_pmu, and config_term_pmu may
need calling a second time because of this.

config_term_pmu is updated to not use the legacy event when the PMU has
such a named event (either from JSON or sysfs).

The bulk of this change is updating all of the parse-events test
expectations so that if a sysfs/JSON event exists for a PMU the test
doesn't fail - a further sign, if it were needed, that the legacy event
priority was a known and tested behavior of the perf tool.

perf test: Fix parse-events tests to skip parametrized events

Testcase "Parsing of all PMU events from sysfs" parse events for
all PMUs, and not just cpu. In case of powerpc, the PowerVM
environment supports events from hv_24x7 and hv_gpci PMU which
is of example format like below:

- hv_24x7/CPM_ADJUNCT_INST,domain=?,core=?/
- hv_gpci/event,partition_id=?/

The value for "?" needs to be filled in depending on system
configuration. It is better to skip these parametrized events
in this test as it is done in:
'commit b50d691e50e6 ("perf test: Fix "all PMU test" to skip
parametrized events")' which handled a simialr instance with
"all PMU test".

Fix parse-events test to skip parametrized events since
it needs proper setup of the parameters.

parse_events_terms() existed in function names but was passed a

As many parse_events functions take an evsel_config list as well as a
parse_event_term list, and the naming head_terms and head_config is
inconsistent, there's a potential to switch the lists and get errors.

Introduce a 'struct parse_events_terms', that just wraps a list_head, to
avoid this. Add the regular init/exit functions and transition the code
to use them.

perf parse-events: Fixes relating to no_value terms

A term may have no value in which case it is assumed to have a value
of 1. It doesn't just apply to alias/event terms so change the
parse_events_term__to_strbuf assert.

Commit 99e7138eb7897aa0 ("perf tools: Fail on using multiple bits long
terms without value") made it so that no_value terms could only be for a
single bit. Prior to commit 64199ae4b8a3 ("perf parse-events: Fix
propagation of term's no_value when cloning") this missed a test case
where config1 had no_value.

perf pmu: Parse sysfs events directly from a file

Rather than read a sysfs events file into a 256 byte char buffer, pass
the FILE* directly to the lex/yacc parser.

This avoids there being a maximum events file size.

While changing the API, constify some arguments to remove unnecessary
casts.

Allocating the read buffer decreases the performance of pmu-scan by
around 3%.

perf test parse-events: Test complex name has required event format

test__checkevent_complex_name will use an "event" format which if not

the test in this case to avoid failures in restricted environments.

Add perf_pmu__has_format utility as a general PMU utility.

Arm has multiple PMU types for heterogeneous systems, but doesn't

support both scenarios so that they pass on Arm, and will still pass
once PERF_PMU_CAP_EXTENDED_HW_TYPE support is added.

perf test: Fix event parsing test on Arm

The test looks for a PMU from sysfs with type = PERF_TYPE_RAW when
opening a raw event. Arm doesn't have a real raw PMU, only core PMUs
with unique types other than raw.

Instead of looking for a matching PMU, just test that the event type
was parsed as raw and skip the PMU search on Arm. The raw event type
test should also apply to all platforms so add it outside of the ifdef.

Committer notes:

Folded follow up patch (see 2nd link below) to address warnings about
unused tokens:

perf tools: Suppress bison unused value warnings

Patch "perf tools: Allow config terms with breakpoints" introduced parse
tokens for colons and slashes within breakpoint parsing to prevent mix
up with colons and slashes related to config terms.

The token values are not needed but introduce bison "unused value"
warnings.

Suppress those warnings.
