Only uncore PMUs can have an identifier, so add an optimized
perf_pmus__scan routine for that case to avoid all PMU types being
created.

l2_itlb_misses is a valid legacy cache event name, hence allowing it
in all_events in metric.py. l2_itlb_misses was also a json event for
AMD zen1, zen2 and zen3.
For zen4, zen5 and zen6 the checking that metric events are within the
json was skipping l2_itlb_misses as it is a valid legacy event, however,
the PMU driver lacks the event mapping causing it to be a bad event when
used in the metric.
Add bp_l1_tlb_miss_l2_tlb_miss.all as the l2 itlb miss event (bp =
branch predictor, the AMD way to say itlb), so that is used in
preference to l2_itlb_misses when the event exists.
Remove l2_itlb_misses from metric.py as the legacy event isn't used by
any metrics and having it is error prone for newer AMD zen models.
Fixes: e596f329668ec2b5 ("perf jevents: Add itlb metric group for AMD")

Code in tools/perf/arch causes portability issues/opaqueness and LTO
issues due to the use of weak symbols. Move the adding of LR to the
sample_user_regs into arm64-frame-pointer-unwind-support.c conditional
on EM_HOST == EM_AARCH64 (false on all non-ARM64 builds).
This also better encapsulates the use of the sampled registers by
get_leaf_frame_caller_aarch64 and the set up by the new
add_leaf_frame_caller_opts_aarch64, exposing opportunities for possibly
sampling PC and SP to help the unwinder.

Mostly people won't care and find it annoying.
As it's to improve perf trace beautifier to catch up new changes mostly

delegate_tool
delegate_tool was missing the delegate overrides for schedstat_cpu
and schedstat_domain. As a result, when allocated with zalloc, these
callbacks defaulted to NULL, causing a segmentation fault crash if
any schedstat events were delivered during event processing.
Fix this by adding delegate_schedstat_cpu and delegate_schedstat_domain
via the CREATE_DELEGATE_OP2 macro, and ensuring delegate_tool__init
correctly registers them.
Additionally, delegate_tool__init completely omitted copying the
dont_split_sample_group property from the delegate. This would cause
wrapper tools to default the flag to false, which corrupts piped event
processing (e.g., in perf inject) by triggering duplicate event
deliveries on split sample values in deliver_sample_group().
Similarly, perf_tool__init() omitted the initialization of this
boolean field. On stack-allocated tools that rely on this initializer
(like intel-tpebs or __cmd_evlist), this could result in uninitialized
stack garbage evaluating to true—silently dropping non-leader event
members in deliver_sample_group().
Fix both issues by properly copying the field in delegate_tool__init
and initializing it to false in perf_tool__init.
Fixes: 6331b266935916bf ("perf tool: Add a delegate_tool that just delegates actions to another tool")
Fixes: 79bcd34e0f3da39f ("perf inject: Fix leader sampling inserting additional samples")

perf_sched__timehist() registers event handlers for options using the
sched->tool struct. It registers handlers for MMAP, COMM, EXIT, FORK, etc.
but completely omits registering a handler for MMAP2 events.
Failing to register both MMAP and MMAP2 handlers causes modern systems
(which primarily output MMAP2 records) to silently drop VMA map mappings.
This results in uninitialized machine/thread mapping structures, making it
impossible to resolve shared library instruction pointers (IPs) to dynamic
symbols/DSOs during timehist callchain analysis.
Fix this by correctly registering perf_event__process_mmap2 in
sched->tool inside perf_sched__timehist().

in diff mode
The patch addresses multiple segmentation fault vectors, out-of-bounds
reads, and memory leaks in perf sched stats by adding bounds checks,
NULL checks, proper error propagation, and robust memory cleanup.
1. In get_all_cpu_stats(), added assert(!list_empty(head)) to prevent
unsafe list_first_entry() calls on empty lists, added a missing NULL
check for summary_head->cpu_data allocation, and implemented a cleanup
ladder using a temporary list to prevent memory leaks on error paths.
2. In free_schedstat(), fixed memory leaks by ensuring internal domain_data
and cpu_data pointers are freed.
3. In show_schedstat_data(), fixed a stale pointer issue where ds2 retained
its value from a previous iteration when dptr2 became NULL, and added
proper propagation of errors from get_all_cpu_stats().
4. Propagated show_schedstat_data() errors up to perf_sched__schedstat_diff()
and perf_sched__schedstat_live() to prevent output corruption on failure.
5. In show_schedstat_data(), added NULL checks for cd_map1 and cd_map2
to gracefully handle invalid or empty data files.
6. Added parallel iteration termination checks using list_is_last() in
show_schedstat_data() for both domain and CPU lists to safely terminate
at the end of each list when files contain a different number of CPUs
or domains.
7. Added CPU bounds checks (cs1->cpu >= nr1 and cs2->cpu >= nr2) in
show_schedstat_data() to prevent out-of-bounds reads from cd_map1 and
cd_map2 when comparing files from machines with different CPU counts.
8. Added NULL checks for cd_info1 and cd_info2 to prevent crashes when
a CPU has data samples but no corresponding domain info in the header.
9. Added domain bounds checks (ds1->domain >= cd_info1->nr_domains and
ds2->domain >= cd_info2->nr_domains) to prevent out-of-bounds array
accesses in the domains array.
10. Added NULL checks for dinfo1 and dinfo2 in show_schedstat_data()
to prevent crashes when a domain has no corresponding domain info.
11. Zero-initialized the perf_data array in perf_sched__schedstat_diff()
to prevent stack garbage from causing perf_data_file__fd() to attempt
to use a NULL fptr when use_stdio happened to be non-zero.

The trace summary test calls /bin/true and filters for open, read and
close events. These events are coming from shared library loads.
On a musl system, the loader and libc may point to the same file. true
needs only libc, no further shared libraries are loaded at startup. The
test fails since no open, read and close events are captured.
root@host:~# ldd /bin/true
/lib/ld-musl-riscv64.so.1 (0x3fb8882000)

execve("/bin/true", ["/bin/true", ...], ... /* 18 vars */) = 1
set_tid_address(0x3fa1f7bf70) = 330
mprotect(0x2ad6b8e000, 12288, PROT_READ) = 0
exit_group(0) = ?
+++ exited with 0 +++
Run "cat /dev/null" instead of "true". This creates the required events
regardless of the C library and it works for cat from busybox or from
coreutils.

So NO_GTK2 is meaningless and we need to pass GTK2=1 to enable it.
Let's update the build-test configuration for that.
Also make_no_ui is the same as make_no_slang since NO_GTK2 is no-op.

The MIDR will affect printing of arm_spe_pkts, so store a copy of it
there. Technically it's constant for each decoder, but there is no
decoder when doing a raw dump, so it has to be stored in every packet.
It will only be used in raw dump mode and not in normal decoding for
now, but to avoid any surprises, set MIDR properly on the decoder too.
Having both the MIDR and the arm_spe_pkt (which has a copy of it) in the
decoder seemed a bit weird, so remove arm_spe_pkt from the decoder. The
packet is only short lived anyway so probably shouldn't have been there
in the first place.

perf test 'perf inject to convert DWARF callchains to regular ones'
fails on s390. It was introduced with commit 92ea788d2af4e65a ("perf
inject: Add --convert-callchain option")
The failure comes the difference in output. Without the inject script to
convert DWARF the callchains is:
# perf record -F 999 --call-graph dwarf -- perf test -w noploop
# perf report -i perf.data --stdio --no-children -q \
--percent-limit=1 > /tmp/111

#
The difference are the symbols __libc_start_call_main and
__libc_start_main_impl.
On x86_64, kernel and user space share a single virtual address space,
with the kernel mapped to the upper end of memory. The instruction
pointer value alone is sufficient to distinguish between user space and
kernel space addresses.
This is not true for s390, which uses separate address spaces for user
and kernel.
The same virtual address can be valid in both address spaces, so the
instruction pointer value alone cannot determine whether an address
belongs to the kernel or user space.
Instead, perf must rely on the cpumode metadata derived from the
processor status word (PSW) at sample time.
In function perf_event__convert_sample_callchain() the first part
copies a kernel callchain and context entries, if any.
It then appends additional entries ignoring the address space
architecture. Taking that into account, the symbols at addresses
0x3ff970348cb __libc_start_call_main
0x3ff970349c5 __libc_start_main_impl
(located after the kernel address space on s390) are now included.
Output before:
# perf test 83
83: perf inject to convert DWARF callchains to regular ones : FAILED!
Output after:
# perf test 83
83: perf inject to convert DWARF callchains to regular ones : Ok
Question to Namhyung:
In function perf_event__convert_sample_callchain() just before the
for() loop this patch modifies, the kernel callchain is copied,
see this comment and the next 5 lines:
/* copy kernel callchain and context entries */
Then why is machine__kernel_ip() needed in the for() loop, when
the kernel entries have been copied just before the loop?
Note: This patch was tested on x86_64 virtual machine and succeeded.

Check return values of `dwfl_report_end` and `dwfl_module_addrdie`
to prevent using uninitialized stack variables or reporting success on
failure.
Additionally:
- Ensure `*file` is freed and inline frames are cleared on error in
`libdw__addr2line()` to prevent memory leaks and duplicated
callchains when falling back to other unwinders.
- Use `die_name()` safe wrapper inside the inline function unwinding
callback (`libdw_a2l_cb`).
- Refactor `libdw_a2l_cb`'s repeated memory error handling/cleanup
paths using a cleaner goto control flow.

Check return values of `dwarf_decl_line` (where non-optional),
`dwarf_getfuncs`, and `dwarf_lineaddr` to prevent using uninitialized
stack variables or incorrectly reporting success on failure.
For the root DIE in `die_walk_lines()`, `dwarf_decl_line` and
`die_get_decl_file` are optional and their failures are handled
gracefully to avoid breaking line walking on valid functions.
Specifically, remove the strict `!decf` (declared file) check that
would prematurely abort line walking on generated or artificial
functions lacking this optional attribute.
Additionally:
- Add NULL pointer protection for `strcmp()` in `die_walk_lines()`
when `inf` or `decf` are NULL to prevent crashes on generated
code.
- Use `dwarf_attr_integrate` in `die_get_data_member_location` to
correctly resolve inherited member locations (e.g. via abstract
origin or specification).

A segmentation fault was observed in `libdw` when running `perf kmem`
with `--page stat` on some workloads. The crash occurred deep inside
`libdw` (specifically in `dwarf_child` and `dwarf_diename`) when
processing DWARF information.
The root cause was improper error handling of `dwarf_getfuncs` in
`die_find_realfunc` and `die_find_tailfunc`.
`dwarf_getfuncs` returns:
- `0` on success (when all functions have been processed).
- A positive offset if the callback aborts early (e.g., via
`DWARF_CB_ABORT` when a match is found).
- `-1` on error.
The original code used `if (!dwarf_getfuncs(...)) return NULL;`. On
error (`-1`), `!-1` evaluates to `0` (false), bypassing the error
check. Execution then proceeded as if a match was found, returning
uninitialized stack memory (`die_mem`) to the caller
(`cu_walk_functions_at`). When `cu_walk_functions_at` passed this
uninitialized memory to `libdw` via `dwarf_diename`, it caused a
segmentation fault.
Fix this by correcting the error check to `if (dwarf_getfuncs(...) <= 0)`.

- Support flat layout for symfs. The --symfs option is to specify the
location of debugging symbol files. The default 'hierarchy' layout
would search the symbol file using the same path of the original
file under the symfs root. The new 'flat' layout would search only
in the root directory.
- Update 'simd' sort key for ARM SIMD flags to cover ASE/SME and more
predicate flags.
perf stat:
- Add --pmu-filter option to select specific PMUs. This would be
useful when you measure metrics from multiple instance of uncore
PMUs with similar names.

Currently, the initialization of loongarch_jump_ops does not contain an
assignment to its .free field. This causes disasm_line__free() to fall
through to ins_ops__delete() for LoongArch jump instructions.
ins_ops__delete() will free ins_operands.source.raw and
ins_operands.source.name, and these fields overlaps with
ins_operands.jump.raw_comment and ins_operands.jump.raw_func_start.
Since in loongarch_jump__parse(), these two fields are populated by
strchr()-ing the same buffer, trying to free them will lead to undefined
behavior.
This invalid free usually leads to crashes:

This patch adds the missing free() specialization in loongarch_jump_ops,
which prevents disasm_line__free() from invoking the default cleanup
function.

When filtering branch stack samples on user events they sample in user
land but may have come from the kernel. Aarch64 avoids leaking the
kernel address for kaslr reasons but other platforms, for now,
don't. Be more permissive in allowing kernel addresses in the source
of user branch stacks.
When filtering branch stack samples on kernel events they sample in
kernel land but may have come from user land. Avoid the target being a
user address but allow the source to be in user land. Aarch64 may not
leak the user land addresses (making them 0) but other platforms
do. As the kernel address sampling implies privelege, just allow this.
Increase the duration of the system call sampling test to make the
likelihood of sampling a system call higher (increased from 1000 to
8000 loops - a number found through experimentation on an Intel
Tigerlake laptop), also make the period of the event a prime number.
Put unneeded perf record output into a temporary file so that the test
output isn't cluttered. More clearly state which test is running and
the pass, fail or skipped result of the test.
These changes make the test on an Intel tigerlake laptop reliably pass
rather than reliably fail.

When adding a probe for libc's inet_pton, perf probe may create multiple
probe points (e.g., due to inlining or multiple symbol resolutions),
resulting in multiple identical event names being output (e.g.,
`probe_libc:inet_pton_1`).
The script previously used a brittle pipeline (`tail -n +2 | head -n -5`)
and an awk script to extract the event name. When multiple probes were
added, awk would output the event name multiple times, which expanded
to multiple words in bash. This broke the subsequent `perf record` and
`perf probe -d` commands, causing the test to fail with:
`Error: another command except --add is set.`
Fix this by removing the brittle `tail/head` commands and appending
`| head -n 1` to the awk extraction. This ensures that only a single,
unique event name is captured, regardless of how many probe points
are created.
Additionally, the test artificially limited the backtrace size via
`max-stack=4` and did not specify dwarf call graphs for non-s390x
architectures. In newer libc versions where `inet_pton` is nested
deeper or compiled without frame pointers, `perf script` failed to resolve
the backtrace up to `/bin/ping`. Fix this by explicitly collecting
dwarf call-graphs for all architectures and increasing `max-stack` to 8.

Turns out that displaying "RM $^" via quiet_cmd_rm can also upset the
shell and cause it to display "argument list too long".
Trying to quote $^ doesn't help.
In the end, *not* displaying the (potentially long) list of files is
probably the right thing to do for a "quiet" message, anyway. Instead,
let's display a count of how many files were removed. There is always
V=1 if more detail is required.
TEST linux/tools/perf/pmu-events/metric_test.log
RM ...634 orphan file(s)...
LD linux/tools/perf/util/perf-util-in.o
Also move the comment regarding xargs before the rule, so it doesn't
show up in the build output.

Validate the BTF entry count and individual data sizes when reading
HEADER_BPF_BTF from perf.data files to prevent excessive memory
allocation from malformed files.
Reuses the MAX_BPF_PROGS (131072) and MAX_BPF_DATA_LEN (256 MB)
limits from HEADER_BPF_PROG_INFO processing.
