To get closer to upstream and check if we need to sync more UAPI
headers, pick up fixes for libbpf that prevent perf's container tests
from completing successfuly, etc.

The events defined in pmu-events JSON are parsed and added into perf
tool. For fixed counters, we handle the encodings between JSON and perf
by using a static array fixed[].
But the fixed[] has missed an important event "cpu_clk_unhalted.core".
For example, on the Tremont platform,
[root@localhost ~]# perf stat -e cpu_clk_unhalted.core -a
event syntax error: 'cpu_clk_unhalted.core'
\___ parser error
With this patch, the event cpu_clk_unhalted.core can be parsed.
[root@localhost perf]# ./perf stat -e cpu_clk_unhalted.core -a -vvv

Change pmu-events.c to not use local include statements. The code that
creates the include statements for pmu-events.c is in jevents.c.
pmu-events.c is a generated file, and for build systems that put
generated files in a separate directory, include statements with local
pathing cannot find non-generated files.

The Cortex-A57 and Cortex-A72 both support all ARMv8 recommended events
up to the RC_ST_SPEC (0x91) event with the exception of:
- L1D_CACHE_REFILL_INNER (0x44)
- L1D_CACHE_REFILL_OUTER (0x45)
- L1D_TLB_RD (0x4E)
- L1D_TLB_WR (0x4F)
- L2D_TLB_REFILL_RD (0x5C)
- L2D_TLB_REFILL_WR (0x5D)
- L2D_TLB_RD (0x5E)
- L2D_TLB_WR (0x5F)
- STREX_SPEC (0x6F)
Create an appropriate JSON file for mapping those events and update the
mapfile.csv for matching the Cortex-A57 and Cortex-A72 MIDR to that
file.

Perf cannot parse UPI (Intel's "Ultra Path Interconnect" [1]) events.
# perf stat -e UPI_DATA_BANDWIDTH_TX
event syntax error: 'UPI_DATA_BANDWIDTH_TX'
\___ parser error
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
The JSON lists call the box UPI LL, while perf calls it upi. Add
conversion support to JSON to convert the unit properly.
Committer notes:
[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Ultra_Path_Interconnect
"The Intel Ultra Path Interconnect (UPI) is a point-to-point processor
interconnect developed by Intel which replaced the Intel QuickPath
Interconnect (QPI) in Xeon Skylake-SP platforms starting in 2017.
UPI is a low-latency coherent interconnect for scalable multiprocessor
systems with a shared address space. It uses a directory-based home
snoop coherency protocol with a transfer speed of up to 10.4 GT/s.
Supporting processors typically have two or three UPI links."

Update all the Intel JSON metrics from Ahmad Yasin's TMAM 3.5
for Intel big core from Sandy Bridge to Cascade Lake.
This has many improvements and new metircs
- New TopDownL1_SMT group that provides a per SMT thread version
of --topdown that does not require -a anymore. The drawback is
increased multiplexing though since L1 TopDown does not fit into
4 generic counters anymore.
- Added SMT aware versions of other metrics
- Split SMT aware metrics into separate metrics to avoid
unnecessary event collections
- New metrics for better branch analysis:
Estimated Branch_Mispredict_Costs, Instructions per taken Branch,
Branch Instructions per Taken Branch, etc.
- Instruction mix metrics:
Instructions per load, Instructions per store, Instructions per Branch,
Instructions per Call
- New Cache metrics:
Bandwidth to L1/L2/L3 caches. L1/L2/L3 misses per kilo instructions.
memory level parallelism
- New memory controller metrics:
Normalized memory bandwidth in interval mode, Average memory latency,
Average number of parallel read requests,
- 3DXP persistent memory metrics for Cascade Lake:
3dxp read latency, 3dxp read/write bandwidth
- Some other useful metrics like Instruction Level Parallelism,
- Various other improvements.
Not all metrics are available on all CPUs. Skylake has best coverage.

Command
# perf list --long-desc pmu
lists the long description of the available counters. For counter
named L1D_RO_EXCL_WRITES on machine types 3906 and 3907 the long
description contains the counter number 'Counter:128 Name:'
prefix. This is wrong.
The fix changes the description text and removes this prefix.
Output before:
[root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf list --long-desc pmu
...
L1D_ONDRAWER_L4_SOURCED_WRITES
[A directory write to the Level-1 Data cache directory where the

[Counter:128 Name:L1D_RO_EXCL_WRITES A directory write to the Level-1

stores to the cache line]

Go over the tools/ files that are maintained in Arnaldo's tree and
fix common typos: half of them were in comments, the other half
in JSON files.
( Care should be taken not to re-import these typos in the future,
if the JSON files get updated by the vendor without fixing the typos. )
No change in functionality intended.
Committer notes:
This was split from a larger patch as there are code that is,
additionally, maintained outside the kernel tree, so to ease cherry
picking and/or backporting, split this into multiple patches.

The perf tools cannot find the proper event list for the Cascadelake
server. Because the Cascadelake server and the Skylake server have the
same CPU model number, which are used by the perf tools to find the
event list.
The stepping for Skylake server is up to 4.
The stepping for Cascadelake server starts from 5.
The stepping can be used to distinguish between them.
The stepping is added in get_cpuid_str().
The stepping information for Skylake server is updated in mapfile.csv.
A x86 specific strcmp_cpuid_cmp() function is added to handle two CPUID
formats in mapfile.csv, "vendor-family-model-stepping" and
"vendor-family-model":
- If a cpuid-regular-expression from the mapfile.csv using the new
stepping format, a cpuid-string generated on the machine must include
stepping. Otherwise, it is a mismatch.
- If the cpuid-regular-expression using the old non-stepping format,
the stepping in the cpuid-string will be ignored.
The script, using environment string "PERF_CPUID" without stepping on
Skylake server, will be broken. If so, users must fix their scripts.

This is the commit that porting the perf for nds32.
1.Raw event:
The raw events start with 'r'.
Usage:
perf stat -e rXYZ ./app
X: the index of performance counter.
YZ: the index(convert to hexdecimal) of events
Example:
'perf stat -e r101 ./app' means the counter 1 will count the instruction
event.
The index of counter and events can be found in
"Andes System Privilege Architecture Version 3 Manual".
Or you can perform the 'perf list' to find the symbolic name of raw events.
2.Perf mmap2:
Fix unexpected perf mmap2() page fault
When the mmap2() called by perf application,
you will encounter such condition:"failed to write."
With return value -EFAULT
This is due to the page fault caused by "reading" buffer
from the mapped legal address region to write to the descriptor.
The page_fault handler will get a VM_FAULT_SIGBUS return value,
which should not happens here.(Due to this is a read request.)
You can refer to kernel/events/core.c:perf_mmap_fault(...)
If "(vmf->pgoff && (vmf->flags & FAULT_FLAG_WRITE))" is evaluated
as true, you will get VM_FAULT_SIGBUS as return value.
However, this is not an write request. The flags which indicated
why the page fault happens is wrong.
Furthermore, NDS32 SPAv3 is not able to detect it is read or write.
It only know either it is instruction fetch or data access.
Therefore, by removing the wrong flag assignment(actually, the hardware
is not able to show the reason), we can fix this bug.
3.Perf multiple events map to same counter.
When there are multiple events map to the same counter, the counter
counts inaccurately. This is because each counter only counts one event
in the same time.
So when there are multiple events map to same counter, they have to take
turns in each context.
There are two solution:
1. Print the error message when multiple events map to the same counter.
But print the error message would let the program hang in loop. The ltp
(linux test program) would be failed when the program hang in loop.
2. Don't print the error message, the ltp would pass. But the user need to
have the knowledge that don't count the events which map to the same
counter, or the user will get the inaccurate results.
We choose method 2 for the solution
