commit 6cef7dab3e2e5cb23a13569c3880c0532326748c upstream.

User space tasks can migrate between CPUs, so when tracing selected CPUs,
system-wide sideband is still needed, however evlist-&gt;core.has_user_cpus
is not set in the hybrid case, so check the target cpu_list instead.

<title>perf evlist: Always use arch_evlist__add_default_attrs()</title>

[ Upstream commit a9c1ecdabc4f2ef04ef5334b8deb3a5c5910136d ]

Current perf stat uses the evlist__add_default_attrs() to add the
generic default attrs, and uses arch_evlist__add_default_attrs() to add
the Arch specific default attrs, e.g., Topdown for x86.

It works well for the non-hybrid platforms. However, for a hybrid
platform, the hard code generic default attrs don't work.

Uses arch_evlist__add_default_attrs() to replace the
evlist__add_default_attrs(). The arch_evlist__add_default_attrs() is
modified to invoke the same __evlist__add_default_attrs() for the
generic default attrs. No functional change.

Add default_null_attrs[] to indicate the arch specific attrs.
No functional change for the arch specific default attrs either.

<title>perf mem: Trace physical address for Arm SPE events</title>

<id>urn:sha1:62e6eb8d5454401bc38b6eba35bab738b63a478b</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, Arm SPE events don't trace physical address, therefore, the
field 'phys_addr' is always zero in synthesized memory samples.  This
leads to perf c2c tool cannot locate the memory node for samples.

This patch enables configuration 'pa_enable' for Arm SPE events, so the
physical address packet can be traced, finally this can allow perf c2c
tool to locate properly for memory node.

<title>perf record: Support sample-read topdown metric group for hybrid platforms</title>

<id>urn:sha1:151e7d75036b4e2ac0f33730bc1a5b3ff424d9a7</id>
<content type='text'>
With the hardware TopDown metrics feature, the sample-read feature should
be supported for a TopDown group, e.g., sample a non-topdown event and read
a Topdown metric group. But the current perf record code errors are out.

For a TopDown metric group,the slots event must be the leader of the group,
but the leader slots event doesn't support sampling. To support sample-read
the TopDown metric group, uses the 2nd event of the group as the "leader"
for the purposes of sampling.

Only the platform with the TopDown metric feature supports sample-read the
topdown group. In commit acb65150a47c ("perf record: Support sample-read
topdown metric group"), it adds arch_topdown_sample_read() to indicate
whether the TopDown group supports sample-read, it should only work on the
non-hybrid systems, this patch extends the support for hybrid platforms.

Before:

  # ./perf record -e "{cpu_core/slots/,cpu_core/cycles/,cpu_core/topdown-retiring/}:S" -a sleep 1
  Error:
  The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (cpu_core/topdown-retiring/).
  /bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.

After:

  # ./perf record -e "{cpu_core/slots/,cpu_core/cycles/,cpu_core/topdown-retiring/}:S" -a sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.238 MB perf.data (369 samples) ]

<id>urn:sha1:e69a5c010246ca6a87c4e6f13d0a291954bdece8</id>
<content type='text'>
For the hybrid system, the "slots" event changes to "cpu_core/slots/", need
extend API arch_evsel__must_be_in_group() to support hybrid systems.

In the origin code, for hybrid system event "cpu_core/slots/", the output
of the API arch_evsel__must_be_in_group() is "false" (in fact,it should be
"true"). Currently only one API evsel__remove_from_group() calls it. In
evsel__remove_from_group(), it adds the second condition to check, so the
output of evsel__remove_from_group() still is correct. That's the reason
why there isn't an instant error. I'd like to fix the issue found in API
arch_evsel__must_be_in_group() in case someone else using the function in
the other place.

<title>perf tools arm64: Add support for VG register</title>

<content type='text'>
Add the name of the VG register so it can be used in --user-regs

The event will fail to open if the register is requested but not
available so only add it to the mask if the kernel supports sve and also
if it supports that specific register.

Committer notes:

Add conditional definition of HWCAP_SVE, as suggested by Leo Yan, to
build on older systems where this is not available in the system
headers.

<title>perf unwind arm64: Decouple Libunwind register names from Perf</title>

<content type='text'>
DWARF register numbers and real register numbers on aarch64 are
equivalent. Remove the references to the register names from Libunwind
so that new registers are supported without having to add build time
feature checks for each new register.

The unwinder won't ask for a register that it doesn't know about and
Perf will already report an error for an unknown or unrecorded register
in the perf_reg_value() function so extra validation isn't needed.

After this change the new VG register can be read by libunwind.
