This series enables perf branch stack sampling support on arm64 platform
via a new arch feature called Branch Record Buffer Extension (BRBE). All
relevant register definitions could be accessed here.

https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0601/2021-12/AArch64-Registers

The last two patches extend the perf ABI to accommodate additional branch
information that can be captured in BRBE. This series applies on v5.17-rc1.

Besides the branch type filtering requests, 'event.attr.branch_sample_type'
also contains various flags indicating which additional information should
be captured, along with the base branch record. These flags help configure
the underlying hardware, and capture the branch records appropriately when
required e.g after PMU interrupt. But first, this moves an existing helper
perf_sample_save_hw_index() into the header before adding some more helpers
for other branch sample filter flags.

This adds BRBE related register definitions and various other related field
macros there in. These will be used subsequently in a BRBE driver which is
being added later on.

This updates struct arm_pmu to include all required helpers that will drive
BRBE functionality for a given PMU implementation. These are the following.

- brbe_filter	: Convert perf event filters into BRBE HW filters
- brbe_probe	: Probe BRBE HW and capture its attributes
- brbe_enable	: Enable BRBE HW with a given config
- brbe_disable	: Disable BRBE HW
- brbe_read	: Read BRBE buffer for captured branch records
- brbe_reset	: Reset BRBE buffer
- brbe_supported: Whether BRBE is supported or not

A BRBE driver implementation needs to provide these functionalities.

A single perf event instance BRBE related contexts and data will be tracked
in struct pmu_hw_events. Hence update the structure to accommodate required
details related to BRBE.

CPU specific BRBE entries, cycle count, format support gets detected during
PMU init. This information gets saved in per-cpu struct pmu_hw_events which
later helps in operating BRBE during a perf event context.

Branch stack sampling rides along the normal perf event and all the branch
records get captured during the PMU interrupt. This just changes perf event
handling on the arm64 platform to accommodate required BRBE operations that
will enable branch stack sampling support.

This adds a BRBE driver which implements all the required helper functions
for struct arm_pmu. Following functions are defined by this driver which
will configure, enable, capture, reset and disable BRBE buffer HW as and
when requested via perf branch stack sampling framework.

- arm64_pmu_brbe_filter()
- arm64_pmu_brbe_enable()
- arm64_pmu_brbe_disable()
- arm64_pmu_brbe_read()
- arm64_pmu_brbe_probe()
- arm64_pmu_brbe_reset()
- arm64_pmu_brbe_supported()

Now that all the required pieces are already in place, just enable the perf
branch stack sampling support on arm64 platform, by removing the gate which
blocks it in armpmu_event_init().

This expands generic branch type classification by adding some more entries
, that can still be represented with the existing 4 bit 'type' field. While
here this also updates the x86 implementation with these new branch types.

Current perf_branch_entry.type is a 4 bits field just enough to accommodate
16 generic branch types. This is insufficient to accommodate platforms like
arm64 which has much more branch types. Lets just expands this field into a
6 bits one, which can now hold 64 generic branch types. This also adds more
generic branch types and updates the BRBE driver as required.

Platforms like arm64 could capture privilege level information for all the
branch records. Hence this adds a new element in the struct branch_entry to
record the privilege level information, which could be requested through a
new event.attr.branch_sample_type flag PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_PRIV_SAVE. While
here, update the BRBE driver as required.

[snip]

Since the architecture gives you the formula to build these, why do
you enumerate each and every register encoding? I'd rather see
something like:

#define __SYS_BRBINFO(n) sys_reg(2, 1, 8, ((n) & 0xf), (((n) & 0x10)) >> 2)
#define SYS_BRBINF0_EL1	__SYS_BRBINFO(0)
[...]

and something similar for all the new registers that come in packs of
32... We already have similar things for AMU, PMU, GIC and co.

Thanks,

	M.

brbe_supported() returns false for one permission case, rather than a "not supported" case
so EOPNOTSUPP is the wrong thing to return here for this case otherwise it makes perf
print confusing error messages. 

The brbe_supported() function needs to be split into two, one that handles support and one
that handles permissions and different errors need to be reported. Here is the permission
bit from that function:

  +	if (event->attr.branch_sample_type & PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_KERNEL) {
  +		if (!perfmon_capable()) {
  +			pr_warn_once("does not have permission for kernel branch filter\n");
  +			return false;

If it's verified earlier than that value should be saved. At the moment this can
change depending on whichever process happens to be current when this is called.

I don't think perfmon_capable() should be called outside of the init function
of a PMU or outside of the perf core code. This function gets called on a path
from the PMU add function, where any process can be current.

See https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220118100702.GB16547@willie-the-truck/T/#m42df3688e8afa299a7b8dfb7c3f4a785c52bcbed

This will return here randomly depending on whether a user process or a kernel
process is 'current', resulting in exception samples randomly being enabled
and disabled.

Why not check perf_event_paranoid too? I would expect kernel sampling to be allowed for non
root users with paranoid <= 0.

Sure, above method seems like a better idea indeed. I will create these
constructs for BRBINF, BRBSRC and BRBTGT based registers set.

Can you also add the new entry to the perf verbose printer otherwise it looks like
it's not being set on branch_sample_type
(as in when using ./perf record -j any_call,u,priv -vvv):

	static void __p_branch_sample_type(char *buf, size_t size, u64 value)
	{
	#define bit_name(n) { PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_##n, #n }
		struct bit_names bits[] = {
			bit_name(USER), bit_name(KERNEL), bit_name(HV), bit_name(ANY),
			bit_name(ANY_CALL), bit_name(ANY_RETURN), bit_name(IND_CALL),
			bit_name(ABORT_TX), bit_name(IN_TX), bit_name(NO_TX),
			bit_name(COND), bit_name(CALL_STACK), bit_name(IND_JUMP),
			bit_name(CALL), bit_name(NO_FLAGS), bit_name(NO_CYCLES),
			bit_name(HW_INDEX),
			{ .name = NULL, }
		};
	#undef bit_name
		__p_bits(buf, size, value, bits);
	}

PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_TYPE_SAVE_SHIFT is also missing so it probably makes sense to add it
at the same time as that was expanded for BRBE.

Adds testing of branch stack sampling on ARM64. Branch stack sampling is
supported by the Branch Record Buffer Extension (BRBE). In order to run
the tests, the Kernel must have BRBE support enabled.

At the time of writing, BRBE support in the Kernel is provided by the
patches in RFC [1]. If BRBE support is not detected, the tests will be
skipped.

Information about BRBE can be found in [2].

Adds two shell script tests in order to test branch stack sampling on
ARM64 plarforms. This functionality is enabled by the Branch Record
Buffer Extension (BRBE) on Arm.

Information about BRBE can be found in [1] chapter F1.

There's another copy of this struct in branch.h that is used to access the same data in
perf which also needs updating:

	struct branch_flags {
		union {
			u64 value;
			struct {
				u64 mispred:1;
				u64 predicted:1;
				u64 in_tx:1;
				u64 abort:1;
				u64 cycles:16;
				u64 type:4;
				u64 reserved:40;
			};
		};
	};

It's never assigned directly but there is some casting stuff going on in
evsel__parse_sample() and it eventually ends up being used to access branch
records. Same applies to the privilege data change.

This patch should come before the BRBE support so that it can be applied
sooner rather than later. If another field is added to the end before 
expanding this field, then you will be stuck with assembling bits from 2 
fields.

From submitting-patches.rst:

Describe your changes in imperative mood, e.g. "make xyzzy do frotz"
instead of "[This patch] makes xyzzy do frotz" or "[I] changed xyzzy
to do frotz", as if you are giving orders to the codebase to change
its behaviour.

> BRBE functionality for a given PMU implementation. These are the following.

Don't describe what the change is, one can read the diff for that. 
Answer why it is needed.

One thing to answer in the commit msg is why we need the hooks here.  
Have we concluded that adding BRBE hooks to struct arm_pmu for what is 
an armv8 specific feature is the right approach? I don't recall 
reaching that conclusion.

The function names seem pretty self-explanatory, but the text is needed, 
shouldn't it be in the struct declaration.

I'm not really a fan of patches adding dead code. That's not any less to 
review. Restructuring with 'no functional change' OTOH is helpful in 
reviewing.

Is has_branch_stack() guaranteed to be false on arm32? If not, this will 
be a NULL function ptr. 

To add to my other comments, this patch is where I would add 
brbe_read(), etc. to arm_pmu.

Another NOP commit. The subject says 'arm64' and that we detect BRBE 
support. This patch neither touches arm64 code nor detects anything.

Can we have 0 as "UNKNOWN". It's going to be difficult to parse files when privilege information
isn't saved and get accurate results without that. For example if it's not set then presumably
the field would be 0 (PERF_BR_USER), but that doesn't mean the samples are user in that case.

I know you might be able to go backwards and look at what arguments were passed to the kernel but
it's not guaranteed that the kernel honored the request anyway. There are also other platforms
to think about etc.

If you look at the branch type definitions above they start at 0 (PERF_BR_UNKNOWN) which I think
works out quite nicely in the userspace code.

Should I just split this patch from the series and post it separately
right away, to be included in perf while BRBE support gets reviewed ?

armpmu_event_init() blocks a perf event from being created with branch
stack sampling request without CONFIG_ARM_BRBE_PMU option being enabled
first, which has dependency on CONFIG_ARM64. So has_branch_stack() is
guaranteed to be false on arm32.

static int armpmu_event_init(struct perf_event *event)
{
	....
        if (has_branch_stack(event)) {
                /*
                 * BRBE support is absent. Select CONFIG_ARM_BRBE_PMU
                 * in the config, before branch stack sampling events
                 * can be requested.
                 */
                if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARM_BRBE_PMU)) {
                        pr_warn_once("BRBE is disabled, select CONFIG_ARM_BRBE_PMU\n");
                        return -EOPNOTSUPP;
                }

          Enable perf support for Branch Record Buffer Extension (BRBE) which
          records all branches taken in an execution path. This supports some
          branch types and privilege based filtering. It captured additional
          relevant information such as cycle count, misprediction and branch
          type, branch privilege level etc.

Because all new arm_pmu helpers get added and get used in the perf driver
in the same patch, although the actual helper implementation would still
come by bit later via the driver. This also uses updates to pmu_hw_events
struct as well, then that patch needs to be folded here as well.

There is no problem as such, kind of bit subjective. I just feel inclined
to keep the independent infrastructure changes separate making it easy to
review while also creating a flow.

Then the stub functions in patch 3 are also not needed. The fact that
you create dummy functions makes it look like you can't have NULL
function ptrs, but you don't. This is what I mean about the structure
of the series being hard to review.

Everything about kernel development is subjective until it's a
requirement by the maintainer. I'm not here, so it's just advice.

Right, this is a NOP at this point but it will have functionality when the
driver gets added later on. I will correct the arm64 part and also update
the message saying - it just adds the infrastructure for BRBE detection not
the actual function.

s/This updates struct arm_pmu to/Update struct arm_pmu to/ should address
this problem I guess. Although the difference here seems very subtle :)

Sure, though was trying just to enumerate a potential driver's functional
responsibilities.

Sure.

Although it might be possible to have this implementation embedded in
the existing armv8 PMU implementation, I still believe that the BRBE
functionalities abstracted out at the arm_pmu level with a separate
config option is cleaner, easier to follow and to maintain as well.

Besides some helpers i.e brbe_supported(), brbe_probe() and brbe_reset()
might not fit seamlessly, when tried to be embedded via existing arm_pmu
helpers in the armv8 implementation.

Nonetheless if arm_pmu based additional BRBE helpers is absolutely a no
go for folks here in general, will explore arm64 based implementation.

Sure, sounds good. Will move there.

Restructuring without functional change clarifies the purpose better.
Besides this is more relevant in this context where the functions will
be provided by a separate (and also detached) driver implementation.

Posted a patch for PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_TYPE_SAVE_SHIFT here but will update
for the new 'priv' request via this series.
