Some of the comments in the perf events code use articles incorrectly,
using 'a' for words beginning with a vowel sound, where 'an' should be
used.

Adding --interval-clear option to clear the screen before next interval.
Committer testing:
# perf stat -I 1000 --interval-clear
And, as expected, it behaves almost like:
# watch -n 0 perf stat -a sleep 1

Add a brief introduction about fields to perf-script-python.txt.

Adding the support to read rusage data once the workload is finished and
display the system/user time values:
$ perf stat --null perf bench sched pipe
...
Performance counter stats for 'perf bench sched pipe':
5.342599256 seconds time elapsed
2.544434000 seconds user
4.549691000 seconds sys
It works only in non -r mode and only for workload target.
So as of now, for workload targets, we display 3 types of timings. The
time we meassure in perf stat from enable to disable+period:
5.342599256 seconds time elapsed
The time spent in user and system lands, displayed only for workload
session/target:
2.544434000 seconds user
4.549691000 seconds sys
Those times are the very same displayed by 'time' tool. They are
returned by wait4 call via the getrusage struct interface.
Committer notes:
Had to rename some variables to avoid this on older systems such as
centos:6:
builtin-stat.c: In function 'print_footer':
builtin-stat.c:1831: warning: declaration of 'stime' shadows a global declaration

Enable complex event names containing [.:=,] symbols to be encoded into Perf
trace using name= modifier e.g. like this:
perf record -e cpu/name=\'OFFCORE_RESPONSE:request=DEMAND_RFO:response=L3_HIT.SNOOP_HITM\',\
period=0x3567e0,event=0x3c,cmask=0x1/Duk ./futex
Below is how it looks like in the report output. Please note explicit escaped
quoting at cmdline string in the header so that thestring can be directly reused
for another collection in shell:
perf report --header

The asciidoc package seems behind the recent big wave of python3
conversion, and we were advised to switch to asciidoctor instead. It's
almost compatible but some extensions used for perf documentation don't
work with it. Here is the patch to cover them, and add the proper
support for asciidoctor.
Pass USE_ASCIIDOCTOR=yes to make for using asciidoctor instead of
asciidoc. The man source and manual attributes are passed via command
options. The support for these attributes have been fixed in the
latest asciidoctor code.
Since asciidoctor can covert to a man page and an HTML directly, we
can omit the dependency on xmlto when USE_ASCIIDOCTOR is set.

User can remove files from cache using --remove/--purge options but both
needs list of files as an argument. It's not convenient when you want to
flush out entire cache. Add an option to purge all files from cache.
Ex,
# perf buildid-cache -l
8a86ef73e44067bca52cc3f6cd3e5446c783391c /tmp/a.out
ebe71fdcf4b366518cc154d570a33cd461a51c36 /tmp/a.out.1
# perf buildid-cache -P -v

Currently print count interval for performance counters values is
limited by 10ms so reading the values at frequencies higher than 100Hz
is restricted by the tool.
This change makes perf stat -I possible on frequencies up to 1KHz and,
to some extent, makes perf stat -I to be on-par with perf record
sampling profiling.
When running perf stat -I for monitoring e.g. PCIe uncore counters and
at the same time profiling some I/O workload by perf record e.g. for
cpu-cycles and context switches, it is then possible to observe
consolidated CPU/OS/IO(Uncore) performance picture for that workload.
Tool overhead warning printed when specifying -v option can be missed
due to screen scrolling in case you have output to the console
so message is moved into help available by running perf stat -h.

Since a new option '--build-options' is created for 'perf version', so
we need to document it.

For instance:
# perf probe "vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=result->name:string"
Added new event:
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=result->name:string)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1
# perf trace --failure sleep 1

We've had this in 'perf top' for quite a while, useful if one wishes
to force using /proc/kcore to do annotation using the patched kernel
instead of the ELF image it started from, aka vmlinux.

This is already present in 'perf top', albeit undocumented (will fix),
and is useful to use /proc/kcore instead of vmlinux and then get what is

This should be further streamlined by doing both annotations and
allowing the TUI to toggle initial/current, and show the patched

Auto-merge for these events was disabled when auto-merging of non-alias
events was disabled in commit 63ce844 (perf stat: Only auto-merge events
that are PMU aliases).
Non-merging of legacy events is preserved:
$ perf stat -ag -e cache-misses,cache-misses sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
86,323 cache-misses
86,323 cache-misses
1.002623307 seconds time elapsed
But prefix or glob matching auto-merges the events created:
$ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
328 l3cache/read-miss/
1.002627008 seconds time elapsed
$ perf stat -a -e l3cache_0_[01]/read-miss/ sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
172 l3cache/read-miss/
1.002627008 seconds time elapsed
As with events created with aliases, auto-merging can be suppressed with
the --no-merge option:
$ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
67 l3cache/read-miss/
67 l3cache/read-miss/

Starting on v4.12 event parsing code for dynamic pmu events already
supports prefix-based matching of multiple pmus when creating dynamic
events. E.g., in a system with the following dynamic pmus:
mypmu_0
mypmu_1
mypmu_2
mypmu_4
passing mypmu/<config>/ as an event spec will result in the creation of
the event in all of the pmus. This change expands this matching through
the use of fnmatch so glob-like expressions can be used to create events
in multiple pmus. E.g., in the system described above if a user only
wants to create the event in mypmu_0 and mypmu_1, mypmu_[01]/<config>/
can be passed.

I've tested to process the perf man pages with asciidoctor that is
picker than asciidoc, and it revealed minor syntax errors in some
documents. Namely, the title markers aren't aligned with the previous
line, hence asciidoctor didn't recognize as titles.
This patch corrects these markers to be processed properly.

One can set a cgroup as a default cgroup to be used by all events or
set cgroups with the 'perf stat' and 'perf record' behaviour, i.e.
'-G A' will be the cgroup for events defined so far in the command line.
Here in my main machine, with a kvm instance running a rhel6 guinea pig
I have:
# ls -la /sys/fs/cgroup/perf_event/ | grep drw
drwxr-xr-x. 14 root root 360 Mar 6 12:04 ..
drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root 0 Mar 6 15:05 machine.slice
#
So I can go ahead and use that cgroup hierarchy, say lets see what
syscalls are being emitted by threads in that 'machine.slice' hierarchy
that are taking more than 100ms:
# perf trace --duration 100 -G machine.slice
0.188 (249.850 ms): CPU 0/KVM/23744 ioctl(fd: 16<anon_inode:kvm-vcpu:0>, cmd: KVM_RUN) = 0

If we look inside that cgroup hierarchy we get:
# ls -la /sys/fs/cgroup/perf_event/machine.slice/ | grep drw
drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root 0 Mar 6 15:05 .
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 0 Mar 6 16:16 machine-qemu\x2d2\x2drhel6.sandy.scope
#
There is just one, but lets say there were more and we would want to see
5 seconds worth of syscall summary for the threads in that cgroup:
# perf trace --summary -G machine.slice/machine-qemu\\x2d2\\x2drhel6.sandy.scope/ -a sleep 5

# perf record -F 200000 sleep 1
warning: Maximum frequency rate (15,000 Hz) exceeded, throttling from 200,000 Hz to 15,000 Hz.
The limit can be raised via /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
The kernel will lower it when perf's interrupts take too long.
Use --strict-freq to disable this throttling, refusing to record.
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.019 MB perf.data (15 samples) ]
# perf evlist -v
cycles:ppp: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 15000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, precise_ip: 3, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
For those wanting that it fails if the desired frequency can't be used:
# perf record --strict-freq -F 200000 sleep 1
error: Maximum frequency rate (15,000 Hz) exceeded.
Please use -F freq option with a lower value or consider
tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
