Metric groups contain metrics. Metrics create groups of events to
ideally be scheduled together. Often metrics refer to the same events,
for example, a cache hit and cache miss rate. Using separate event
groups means these metrics are multiplexed at different times and the
counts don't sum to 100%. More multiplexing also decreases the
accuracy of the measurement.

This change orders metrics from groups or the command line, so that
the ones with the most events are set up first. Later metrics see if
groups already provide their events, and reuse them if
possible. Unnecessary events and groups are eliminated.

The option --metric-no-group is added so that metrics aren't placed in
groups. This affects multiplexing and may increase sharing.

The option --metric-mo-merge is added and with this option the
existing grouping behavior is preserved.

RFC because:
 - without this change events within a metric may get scheduled
   together, after they may appear as part of a larger group and be
   multiplexed at different times, lowering accuracy - however, less
   multiplexing may compensate for this.
 - libbpf's hashmap is used, however, libbpf is an optional
   requirement for building perf.
 - other things I'm not thinking of.

Thanks!

Example on Sandybridge:

$ perf stat -a --metric-no-merge -M TopDownL1_SMT sleep 1

v3. is a rebase with following the merging of patches in v2. It also
adds the metric-no-group and metric-no-merge flags.
v2. is the entire patch set based on acme's perf/core tree and includes a
cherry-picks. Patch 13 was sent for review to the bpf maintainers here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200506205257.8964-2-irogers@google.com/
v1. was based on the perf metrics fixes and test sent here:

On a CPU like skylakex an uncore_iio_0 PMU may alias with
uncore_iio_free_running_0. The latter PMU doesn't support fc_mask
as a parameter and so pmu_config_term fails. Typically
parse_events_add_pmu is called in a loop where if one alias succeeds
errors are ignored, however, if multiple errors occur
parse_events__handle_error will currently give a WARN_ONCE.

This change removes the WARN_ONCE in parse_events__handle_error and
makes it a pr_debug. It adds verbose messages to parse_events_add_pmu
warning that non-fatal errors may occur, while giving details on the pmu
and config terms for useful context. pmu_config_term is altered so the
failing term and pmu are present in the case of the 'unknown term'
error which makes spotting the free_running case more straightforward.

Add a basic floating point number test to expr.
Break pmu-events test into 2 and add a test to verify that all pmu metric
expressions simply parse. Try to parse all metric ids/events, failing if
metrics for the current architecture fail to parse.

Tested on skylakex with the patch set in place. May fail on other
architectures if metrics are invalid.

Don't include libbpf_internal.h as it is unused and has conflicting
definitions, for example, with tools/perf/util/debug.h.
Fix a non-glibc include path.

From: Andrii Nakryiko <andriin@fb.com>

Fix memory leak in hashmap_clear() not freeing hashmap_entry structs for each
of the remaining entries. Also NULL-out bucket list to prevent possible
double-free between hashmap__clear() and hashmap__free().

Running test_progs-asan flavor clearly showed this problem.

Use a hashmap between a char* string and a double* value. While bpf's
hashmap entries are size_t in size, we can't guarantee sizeof(size_t) >=
sizeof(double). Avoid a memory allocation when gathering ids by making 0.0
a special value encoded as NULL.

If a metric contains the duration_time event then the event is placed
outside of the metric's group of events. Rather than split the group,
make it so the duration_time is immediately after the group.

Currently event groups are placed into groups_list at the same time as
the events string containing the events is built. Separate these two
operations and build the groups_list first, then the event string from
the groups_list. This adds an ability to reorder the groups_list that
will be used in a later patch.

When adding event groups to the group list, insert them in size order.
This performs an insertion sort on the group list. By placing the
largest groups at the front of the group list it is possible to see if a
larger group contains the same events as a later group. This can make
the later group redundant - it can reuse the events from the large group.
A later patch will add this sharing.

A metric group contains multiple metrics. These metrics may use the same
events. If metrics use separate events then it leads to more
multiplexing and overall metric counts fail to sum to 100%.
Modify how metrics are associated with events so that if the events in
an earlier group satisfy the current metric, the same events are used.
A record of used events is kept and at the end of processing unnecessary
events are eliminated.

Add --metric-no-group that causes all events within metrics to not be
grouped. This can allow the event to get more time when multiplexed, but
may also lower accuracy.
Add --metric-no-merge option. By default events in different metrics may
be shared if the group of events for one metric is the same or larger
than that of the second. Sharing may increase or lower accuracy and so
is now configurable.

Yes some improvements here are great.

Could we also make this a per metric option, like

-M foo:nomerge,... 

or somesuch? Okay i suppose this could be a followon.

Ultimatively like you said we probably want to configure
defaults in the event file.

This seems like a independent bug fix and should probably
be pushed independently of the rest.

Perhaps add a Fixes: tag.

I'm not sure if size is that great an heuristic. The dedup algorithm should
work in any case even if you don't order by size, right?

I suppose in theory some kind of topological sort would be better.

BTW standard perf data structure would be a rblist or strlist

I think it would be really better to do the deduping in a separate
pass than trying to add it to find_evsel_group. This leads
to very complicated logic.

This will likely make it easier to implement more sophisticated
algorithms too.

All these patches at the beginning look like straight forward
bug fixes and are really independent of the new features.

For them

Consider two metrics:
 - metric 1 with events {A,B}
 - metric 2 with events {A,B,C,D}
If the list isn't sorted then as the matching takes the first group
with all the events, metric 1 will match {A,B} and metric 2 {A,B,C,D}.
If the order is sorted to {A,B,C,D},{A,B} then metric 1 matches within
the {A,B,C,D} group as does metric 2. The events in metric 1 aren't
used and are removed.

The dedup algorithm is very naive :-)

> I suppose in theory some kind of topological sort would be better.

We could build something more complex, such as a directed acyclic
graph where metrics with a subset of events are children of parent
metrics. Children could have >1 parent for example
{A,B,C,D},{A,B,E},{A,B} where {A,B} is a subset of both {A,B,C,D} and
{A,B,E} and so a child of both. Presumably in that case it'd be better
to match {A,B} with {A,B,E} to reduce multiplexing. As we're merging
smaller groups into bigger, the sorting of the list is a quick and
dirty approximation of this.

Thanks,
Ian

Thanks, for context I added them after v1 to make it easier to apply
the patches.

Ok. It's better for the longer metric if they stay together.

I guess what matters is that it gives reasonable results on the current
metrics. I assume it does?

How much deduping is happening if you run all metrics?

For toplev on my long term todo list was to compare it against
a hopefully better schedule generated by or-tools, but I never
got around to coding that up.

Hi Andi,

I included this data in the latest cover-letter:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200520072814.128267-1-irogers@google.com/

Agreed, and this relates to your comments about doing the algorithm as
a separate pass outside of find_evsel_group. For that, I don't
disagree but would like to land what we have and then follow up with
improvements.

Thanks,
Ian
