[PATCH v3 0/4] Fixes for setting event freq/periods

[PATCH v3 0/4] Fixes for setting event freq/periods

[Ian Rogers]

Some fixes that address issues for regular and pfm4 events with 2
additional perf_event_attr tests. Various authors, David Sharp isn't
currently at Google.

v3. moved a loop into a helper following Adrian Hunter's suggestion. 
v2. corrects the commit message following Athira Rajeev's suggestion.

David Sharp (1):
  perf record: Set PERF_RECORD_PERIOD if attr->freq is set.

Ian Rogers (2):
  perf record: Don't clear event's period if set by a term
  perf test: Leader sampling shouldn't clear sample period

Stephane Eranian (1):
  perf record: Prevent override of attr->sample_period for libpfm4
    events

[PATCH v3 1/4] perf record: Set PERF_RECORD_PERIOD if attr->freq is set.

[Ian Rogers]

From: David Sharp <dhsharp@google.com>

evsel__config() would only set PERF_RECORD_PERIOD if it set attr->freq
from perf record options. When it is set by libpfm events, it would not
get set. This changes evsel__config to see if attr->freq is set outside of
whether or not it changes attr->freq itself.

[PATCH v3 2/4] perf record: Prevent override of attr->sample_period for libpfm4 events

[Ian Rogers]

From: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com>

Before:
$ perf record -c 10000 --pfm-events=cycles:period=77777

Would yield a cycles event with period=10000, instead of 77777.

This was due to an ordering issue between libpfm4 parsing
the event string and perf record initializing the event.

This patch fixes the problem by preventing override for
events with attr->sample_period != 0 by the time
perf_evsel__config() is invoked. This seems to have been the
intent of the author.

[PATCH v3 3/4] perf record: Don't clear event's period if set by a term

[Ian Rogers]

If events in a group explicitly set a frequency or period with leader
sampling, don't disable the samples on those events.

Prior to 5.8:
perf record -e '{cycles/period=12345000/,instructions/period=6789000/}:S'
would clear the attributes then apply the config terms. In commit
5f34278867b7 leader sampling configuration was moved to after applying the
config terms, in the example, making the instructions' event have its period
cleared.
This change makes it so that sampling is only disabled if configuration
terms aren't present.

Without this patch we have:

# perf record -e '{cycles/period=1/,instructions/period=2/}:S' sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.051 MB perf.data (6 samples) ]
#
# perf evlist -v
cycles/period=1/: size: 120, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 1, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|READ|ID, read_format: ID|GROUP, disabled: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1, ksymbol: 1, bpf_event: 1
instructions/period=2/: size: 120, config: 0x1, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|READ|ID, read_format: ID|GROUP, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1
#

So indeed the period=2 is being cleared for the second event in that
group.
