Subject: [PATCH v2 00/14] perf mem: Support AUX trace and Arm SPE
This patch set is to support AUX trace and Arm SPE as the first enabled
hardware tracing for Perf memory tool.
Patches 01 ~ 04 are preparasion patches which mainly resolve the issue
for memory events, since the existed code is hard coded the memory
events which based on x86 and PowerPC architectures, so patches 01 ~ 04
extend to support more flexible memory event name, and introduce weak
functions so can allow every architecture to define its own memory
events structure and returning event pointer and name respectively.
Patches 05 and 06 are used to extend Perf memory tool to support AUX
trace, and add a new option 'M' for itrace for generate memory events.
Patches 07 ~ 13 are to support Arm SPE with Perf memory tool. Firstly it
registers SPE events for memory events, then it extends the SPE packet
to pass addresses info and operation types, and also set 'data_src'
field so can allow the tool to display readable string in the result.
Patch 14 is to update documentation to reflect changes introduced for
support Arm SPE.
This patch set has been tested on ARMv8 Hisilicon D06 platform and
verfied on x86 so avoid to cause regression. Please note, this patch
set is dependent on the patch set "perf arm-spe: Refactor decoding &
dumping flow" [1].
Below commands can run successfully on D06:
$ perf mem record -t ldst -- ~/false_sharing.exe 2
$ perf mem record -t load -- ~/false_sharing.exe 2
$ perf mem record -t store -- ~/false_sharing.exe 2
$ perf mem report
$ perf mem report --itrace=M

Changes from v1:
* Refined patch 02 to use perf_mem_events__ptr() to return event pointer
and check if pointer is NULL, and remove the condition checking for
PERF_MEM_EVENTS__MAX; (James Clark)
* Added new itrace option 'M' for memory events;
* Added patch 14 to update documentation.
