perf pmu: Lazily compute default config

The default config is computed during creation of the PMU and may do
things like scanning sysfs, when the PMU may just be used as part of
scanning. Change default_config to perf_event_attr_init_default, a
callback that is used when a default config needs initializing. This
avoids holding onto the memory for a perf_event_attr and copying.

On a tigerlake laptop running the pmu-scan benchmark:

Before:
Running 'internals/pmu-scan' benchmark:
Computing performance of sysfs PMU event scan for 100 times
Average core PMU scanning took: 28.780 usec (+- 0.503 usec)
Average PMU scanning took: 283.480 usec (+- 18.471 usec)
Number of openat syscalls: 30,227

After:
Running 'internals/pmu-scan' benchmark:
Computing performance of sysfs PMU event scan for 100 times
Average core PMU scanning took: 27.880 usec (+- 0.169 usec)
Average PMU scanning took: 245.260 usec (+- 15.758 usec)
Number of openat syscalls: 28,914

Over 3 runs it is a nearly 12% reduction in execution time and a 4.3%
of openat calls.

perf cs-etm: Track exception level

Currently we assume all trace belongs to the host machine so when
the decoder should be looking at the guest kernel maps it can crash
because it looks at the host ones instead.

Avoid one scenario (guest kernel running at EL1) by assigning the
default guest machine to this trace. For userspace trace it's still not
possible to determine guest vs host, but the PIDs should help in this
case.

Committer notes:

Fixed up conflict with:

perf addr_location: Add init/exit/copy functions

That was only on tmp.perf-tools-next.

Now that times are converted to nanoseconds, also try to estimate the
timestamps more accurately be dividing by some fixed value for
instructions per ns. This prevents long ranges from being estimated
too far in the past than would be realistic.

This is also removes some ambiguity arising from the fact that the

and the /timestamp/ event modifier refers to CS timestamps, so the term

perf cs-etm: Update ETM metadata format

The current fixed metadata version format (version 0), means that adding
metadata parameter items renders files from a previous version of perf
unreadable. Per CPU parameters appear in a fixed order, but there is no
field to indicate the number of ETM parameters per CPU.

This patch updates the per CPU parameter blocks to include a NR_PARAMs
value which indicates the number of parameters in the block.

The header version is incremented to 1. Fixed ordering is retained,
new ETM parameters are added to the end of the list.

The reader code is updated to be able to read current version 0 files,
For version 1, the reader will read the number of parameters in the
per CPU block. This allows the reader to process older or newer files
that may have different numbers of parameters than in use at the
time perf was built.

perf cs-etm: Move definition of 'traceid_list' global variable from header file

The variable 'traceid_list' is defined in the header file cs-etm.h,
if multiple C files include cs-etm.h the compiler might complaint for
multiple definition of 'traceid_list'.

To fix multiple definition error, move the definition of 'traceid_list'
into cs-etm.c.

perf cs-etm: Introduce the concept of trace ID queues

In an ideal world there is one CPU per cs_etm_queue and as such, one
trace ID per cs_etm_queue. In the real world CoreSight topologies allow
multiple CPUs to use the same sink, which translates to multiple trace
IDs per cs_etm_queue.

To deal with this a new cs_etm_traceid_queue structure is introduced to
enclose all the information related to a single trace ID, allowing a
cs_etm_queue to handle traces generated by any number of CPUs.

perf cs-etm: Set sample flags for exception packet

The exception taken and returning are typical flow for instruction jump
but it needs to be handled with exception packets. This patch is to set
sample flags for exception packet.

Since the exception packet contains the exception number, according to
the exception number this patch makes decision for belonging to which
exception types.

The decoder have defined different exception number for ETMv3 and ETMv4
separately, hence this patch needs firstly decide the ETM version by
using the metadata magic number, and this patch adds helper function
cs_etm__get_magic() for easily getting magic number.

Based on different ETM version, the exception packet contains the
exception number, according to the exception number this patch makes
decision for the exception belonging to which exception types.

In this patch, it introduces helper function cs_etm__is_svc_instr(); for
ETMv4 CS_ETMV4_EXC_CALL covers SVC, SMC and HVC cases in the single
exception number, thus need to use cs_etm__is_svc_instr() to decide an
exception taken for system call.

perf cs-etm: Change tuple from traceID-CPU# to traceID-metadata

If packet processing wants to know the packet is bound with which ETM
version, it needs to access metadata to decide that based on metadata
magic number; but we cannot simply to use CPU logic ID number as index
to access metadata sequential array, especially when system have
hotplugged off CPUs, the metadata array are only allocated for online
CPUs but not offline CPUs, so the CPU logic number doesn't match with
its index in the array.

This patch is to change tuple from traceID-CPU# to traceID-metadata,
thus it can use the tuple to retrieve metadata pointer according to
traceID.

For safe accessing metadata fields, this patch provides helper function
cs_etm__get_cpu() which is used to return CPU number according to
traceID; cs_etm_decoder__buffer_packet() is the first consumer for this
helper function.

trace capable CPUs, their ETM version and trace configuration, including
trace id values. This information is required by the trace decoder in
order to properly decode the compressed trace packets. This patch adds
code to read and parse this metadata, and store it for use in
configuring instances of the cs-etm trace decoder.
