When printing stats in CSV mode, 'perf stat' appends extra separators
when a counter is not supported:
<not supported>,,L1-dcache-store-misses,mesos/bd442f34-2b4a-47df-b966-9b281f9f56fc,0,100.00,,,,
Which causes a failure when parsing fields. The numbers of separators
should be the same for each line, no matter if the counter is or not
supported.

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Be more robust when drawing arrows in the annotation TUI, avoiding a
segfault when jump instructions have as a target addresses in functions
other that the one currently being annotated. The full fix will come in
the following days, when jumping to other functions will work as call
instructions (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Allow asking for the maximum allowed sample rate in 'top' and
'record', i.e. 'perf record -F max' will read the
kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate sysctl and use it (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- When the user specifies a freq above kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate,
Throttle it down to that max freq, and warn the user about it, add as
well --strict-freq so that the previous behaviour of not starting the
session when the desired freq can't be used can be selected (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Find 'call' instruction target symbol at parsing time, used so far in
the TUI, part of the infrastructure changes that will end up allowing
for jumps to navigate to other functions, just like 'call'
instructions. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Use xyarray dimensions to iterate fds in 'perf stat' (Andi Kleen)
- Ignore threads for which the current user hasn't permissions when
enabling system-wide --per-thread (Jin Yao)
- Fix some backtrace perf test cases to use 'perf record' + 'perf script'
instead, till 'perf trace' starts using ordered_events or equivalent
to avoid symbol resolving artifacts due to reordering of
PERF_RECORD_MMAP events (Jiri Olsa)
- Fix crash in 'perf record' pipe mode, it needs to allocate the ID
array even for a single event, unlike non-pipe mode (Jiri Olsa)
- Make annoying fallback message on older kernels with newer 'perf top'
binaries trying to use overwrite mode and that not being present
in the older kernels (Kan Liang)
- Switch last users of old APIs to the newer perf_mmap__read_event()
one, then discard those old mmap read forward APIs (Kan Liang)
- Fix the usage on the 'perf kallsyms' man page (Sangwon Hong)
- Simplify cgroup arguments when tracking multiple events (weiping zhang)

Currently we can crash perf record when running in pipe mode, like:

# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.

The callstack of the crash is:

The reason of the crash is that the evsel does not have ids array
allocated and the pipe's synthesize code tries to access it.
We don't force evsel ids allocation when we have single event, because
it's not needed. However we need it when we are in pipe mode even for
single event as a key for evsel update event.
Fixing this by forcing evsel ids allocation event for single event, when

There's a problem with relying on backtrace data from 'perf trace' the
way the trace+probe_libc_inet_pton does. This test inserts uprobe within
ping binary and checks that it gets its sample using 'perf trace'.
It also checks it gets proper backtrace from sample and that's where the
issue is.
The 'perf trace' does not sort events (by definition) so it can happen
that it processes the event sample before the ping binary memory map
event. This can (very rarely) happen as proved by this events dump
output (from custom added debug output):
...
7680/7680: [0x7f4e29718000(0x204000) @ 0 fd:00 33611321 4230892504]: r-xp /usr/lib64/libdl-2.17.so
7680/7680: [0x7f4e29502000(0x216000) @ 0 fd:00 33617257 2606846872]: r-xp /usr/lib64/libz.so.1.2.7
(IP, 0x2): 7680/7680: 0x7f4e29c2ed60 period: 1 addr: 0
7680/7680: [0x564842ef0000(0x233000) @ 0 fd:00 83 1989280200]: r-xp /usr/bin/ping

...
In this case 'perf trace' fails to resolve the last callchain IP (within
the ping binary) because it does not know about the ping binary memory
map yet and the test fails like this:
PING ::1(::1) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from ::1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.037 ms

If we execute 'perf stat --per-thread' with non-root account (even set

Error:
You may not have permission to collect system-wide stats.
Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid,
which controls use of the performance events system by
unprivileged users (without CAP_SYS_ADMIN).
The current value is 2:
-1: Allow use of (almost) all events by all users
Ignore mlock limit after perf_event_mlock_kb without CAP_IPC_LOCK
>= 0: Disallow ftrace function tracepoint by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
Disallow raw tracepoint access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
>= 1: Disallow CPU event access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
>= 2: Disallow kernel profiling by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
To make this setting permanent, edit /etc/sysctl.conf too, e.g.:
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1
Perhaps the ptrace rule doesn't allow to trace some processes. But anyway
the global --per-thread mode had better ignore such errors and continue
working on other threads.
This patch will record the index of error thread in perf_evsel__open()
and remove this thread before retrying.

When using -G with one cgroup and -e with multiple events, only the
first event gets the correct cgroup setting, all events from the second
onwards will track system-wide events.
If the user wants to track multiple events for a specific cgroup, the
user must give parameters like the following:
$ perf stat -e e1 -e e2 -e e3 -G test,test,test
This patch simplify this case, just type one cgroup:
$ perf stat -e e1 -e e2 -e e3 -G test

[ Improved the doc text a bit, providing an example for cgroup + system wide counting ]

Currently a number of Makefiles break when used with toolchains that
pass extra flags in CC and other cross-compile related variables (such
as --sysroot).
Thus we get this error when we use a toolchain that puts --sysroot in
the CC var:
~/src/linux/tools$ make iio
[snip]
iio_event_monitor.c:18:10: fatal error: unistd.h: No such file or directory
#include <unistd.h>
^~~~~~~~~~
This occurs because we clobber several env vars related to
cross-compiling with lines like this:
CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc
Although this will point to a valid cross-compiler, we lose any extra
flags that might exist in the CC variable, which can break toolchains
that rely on them (for example, those that use --sysroot).
This easily shows up using a Yocto SDK:
$ . [snip]/sdk/environment-setup-cortexa8hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi
$ echo $CC
arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc -march=armv7-a -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=hard
-mcpu=cortex-a8
--sysroot=[snip]/sdk/sysroots/cortexa8hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi
$ echo $CROSS_COMPILE
arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-
$ echo ${CROSS_COMPILE}gcc
krm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc
Although arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc is a cross-compiler, we've lost the
--sysroot and other flags that enable us to find the right libraries to
link against, so we can't find unistd.h and other libraries and headers.
Normally with the --sysroot flag we would find unistd.h in the sdk
directory in the sysroot:
$ find [snip]/sdk/sysroots -path '*/usr/include/unistd.h'
[snip]/sdk/sysroots/cortexa8hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi/usr/include/unistd.h
The perf Makefile adds CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc if and only if CC is not
already set, and it compiles correctly with the above toolchain.
So, generalize the logic that perf uses in the common Makefile and
remove the manual CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc lines from each Makefile.
Note that this patch does not fix cross-compile for all the tools (some
have other bugs), but it does fix it for all except usb and acpi, which
still have other unrelated issues.
I tested both with and without the patch on native and cross-build and
there appear to be no regressions.
