perf script: Show branch speculation info

Show the branch speculation info if provided by the branch recording
hardware feature. This can be useful for optimizing code further.

The speculation info is appended to the end of the list of fields so any
existing tools that use "/" as a delimiter for access fields via an index
remain unaffected. Also show "-" instead of "N/A" when speculation info
is unavailable because "/" is used as the field separator.

E.g.

$ perf record -j any,u,save_type ./test_branch
$ perf script --fields brstacksym

Before:

[...]
check_match+0x60/strcmp+0x0/P/-/-/0/CALL
do_lookup_x+0x3c5/check_match+0x0/P/-/-/0/CALL
[...]

After:

[...]
check_match+0x60/strcmp+0x0/P/-/-/0/CALL/NON_SPEC_CORRECT_PATH
do_lookup_x+0x3c5/check_match+0x0/P/-/-/0/CALL/NON_SPEC_CORRECT_PATH
[...]

The bitfield swapping scheme used duing sample parsing has changed
because of the addition of new branch flags, namely "spec", "new_type"
and "priv". Earlier, these were all part of the "reserved" field but
now, each of these fields get swapped separately. Change the expected
flag values accordingly for the test to pass.

E.g.

$ perf test -v 27

Before:

27: Sample parsing :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 61979
parsing failed for sample_type 0x800
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
Sample parsing: FAILED!

After:

27: Sample parsing :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 63293
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
Sample parsing: Ok

perf util: Add host_is_bigendian to util.h

Avoid libtraceevent dependency for tep_is_bigendian or trace-event.h
dependency for bigendian. Add a new host_is_bigendian to util.h, using
the compiler defined __BYTE_ORDER__ when available.

Committer notes:

Added:

#else /* !__BYTE_ORDER__ */

On that nested #ifdef block, as per Namhyung's suggestion.

perf tools: Support reading PERF_FORMAT_LOST

The recent kernel added lost count can be read from either read(2) or
ring buffer data with PERF_SAMPLE_READ. As it's a variable length data
we need to access it according to the format info.

But for perf tools use cases, PERF_FORMAT_ID is always set. So we can
only check PERF_FORMAT_LOST bit to determine the data format.

Add sample_read_value_size() and next_sample_read_value() helpers to
make it a bit easier to access. Use them in all places where it reads
the struct sample_read_value.

perf test sample-parsing: Fix branch_stack entry endianness check

Commit 10269a2ca2b08cbd ("perf test sample-parsing: Add endian test for
struct branch_flags") broke the test case 27 (Sample parsing) on s390 on
linux-next tree:

# perf test -Fv 27
27: Sample parsing
--- start ---
parsing failed for sample_type 0x800
---- end ----
Sample parsing: FAILED!
#

The cause of the failure is a wrong #define BS_EXPECTED_BE statement in
above commit. Correct this define and the test case runs fine.

Output After:

# perf test -Fv 27
27: Sample parsing :
--- start ---
---- end ----
Sample parsing: Ok

perf test: Fix unaligned access in sample parsing test

The ubsan reported the following error. It was because sample's raw
data missed u32 padding at the end. So it broke the alignment of the

The raw data contains an u32 size prefix so the data size should have
an u32 padding after 8-byte aligned data.

perf tools: Add hw_idx in struct branch_stack

The low level index of raw branch records for the most recent branch can
be recorded in a sample with PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX
branch_sample_type. Extend struct branch_stack to support it.

However, if the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX is not applied, only nr and
entries[] will be output by kernel. The pointer of entries[] could be
wrong, since the output format is different with new struct
branch_stack. Add a variable no_hw_idx in struct perf_sample to
indicate whether the hw_idx is output. Add get_branch_entry() to return
corresponding pointer of entries[0].

To make dummy branch sample consistent as new branch sample, add hw_idx
in struct dummy_branch_stack for cs-etm and intel-pt.

Apply the new struct branch_stack for synthetic events as well.

Extend test case sample-parsing to support new struct branch_stack.

Committer notes:

Renamed get_branch_entries() to perf_sample__branch_entries() to have
proper namespacing and pave the way for this to be moved to libperf,
eventually.

Add 'static' to that inline as it is in a header.

Add 'hw_idx' to 'struct dummy_branch_stack' in cs-etm.c to fix the build
on arm64.

perf tools: Add kernel AUX area sampling definitions

Add kernel AUX area sampling definitions, which brings perf_event.h into
line with the kernel version.

New sample type PERF_SAMPLE_AUX requests a sample of the AUX area
buffer. New perf_event_attr member 'aux_sample_size' specifies the
desired size of the sample.

Also add support for parsing samples containing AUX area data i.e.
PERF_SAMPLE_AUX.

Committer notes:

I squashed the first two patches in this series to avoid breaking
automatic bisection, i.e. after applying only the original first patch
in this series we would have:

# perf test -v parsing
26: Sample parsing :

test child forked, pid 17018
sample format has changed, some new PERF_SAMPLE_ bit was introduced - test needs updating
test child finished with -1
---- end ----

#

With the two paches combined:

# perf test parsing
26: Sample parsing : Ok

libperf: Move perf_event_attr field from perf's evsel to libperf's perf_evsel

Move the perf_event_attr struct fron 'struct evsel' to 'struct perf_evsel'.

Committer notes:

Fixed up these:

tests/sample-parsing.c: In function 'do_test':
tests/sample-parsing.c:162: error: missing initializer
tests/sample-parsing.c:162: error: (near initialization for 'evsel.core.cpus')

struct evsel evsel = {
.needs_swap = false,
- .core.attr = {
- .sample_type = sample_type,
- .read_format = read_format,
+ .core = {
+ . attr = {
+ .sample_type = sample_type,
+ .read_format = read_format,
+ },

[perfbuilder@a70e4eeb5549 /]$ gcc --version |& head -1
gcc (GCC) 4.4.7

Also we don't need to include perf_event.h in
tools/perf/lib/include/perf/evsel.h, forward declaring 'struct
perf_event_attr' is enough. And this even fixes the build in some
systems where things are used somewhere down the include path from
perf_event.h without defining __always_inline.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

perf tests: Pass the subtest index to each test routine

Some tests have sub-tests we want to run, so allow passing this.

Wang tried to avoid having to touch all tests, but then, having the
test.func in an anonymous union makes the build fail on older compilers,
like the one in RHEL6, where:

test a = {
.func = foo,
};

fails.

To fix it leave the func pointer in the main structure and pass the subtest
index to all tests, end result function is the same, but we have just one
function pointer, not two, with and without the subtest index as an argument.
