[ Upstream commit b63fd11cce ]
When using 'perf stat' with repeat and interval option, it shows wrong
values for events.
The wrong values will be shown for the first interval on the second and
subsequent repetitions.
Without the fix:
# perf stat -r 3 -I 2000 -e faults -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 5
2.000282489 53 faults
2.000282489 513 sched:sched_switch

prev_raw_counts is allocated when using intervals. This is used when
calculating the difference in the counts of events when using interval.
The current counts are stored in prev_raw_counts to calculate the
differences in the next iteration.
On the first interval of the second and subsequent repetitions,
prev_raw_counts would be the values stored in the last interval of the
previous repetitions, while the current counts will only be for the
first interval of the current repetition.
Hence there is a possibility of events showing up as big number.
Fix this by resetting prev_raw_counts whenever perf stat repeats the
command.
With the fix:
# perf stat -r 3 -I 2000 -e faults -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 5

Committer notes:
This was broken since the cset introducing the --interval feature, i.e.
--repeat + --interval wasn't tested at that point, add the Fixes tag so
that automatic scripts can pick this up.

Implement the TopDown formulas in 'perf stat'. The topdown basic metrics
reported by the kernel are collected, and the formulas are computed and
output as normal metrics.
See the kernel commit exporting the events for details on the used
metrics.
Committer note:
Output example:
# perf stat --topdown -a usleep 1

v2: Always print all metrics, only use thresholds for coloring.
v3: Mark retiring over threshold green, not red.
v4: Only print one decimal digit
Fix color printing of one metric
v5: Avoid printing -0.0
v6: Remove extra frontend event lookup

Abstract the printing of shadow metrics. Instead of every metric calling
fprintf directly and taking care of indentation, use two call backs: one
to print metrics and another to start a new line.
This will allow adding metrics to CSV mode and also using them for other
purposes.
The computation of padding is now done in the central callback, instead
of every metric doing it manually. This makes it easier to add new
metrics.
v2: Refactor functions, printout now does more. Move
shadow printing. Improve fallback callbacks. Don't
use void * callback data.
v3: Remove unnecessary hunk. Add typedef for new_line
v4: Remove unnecessary hunk. Don't print metrics for CSV/interval
mode yet. Move printout change to separate patch.
v5: Fix bisect bugs. Avoid bogus frontend cycles printing.
Fix indentation in different aggregation modes.
v6: Delay newline handling

Currently all the -p option PID arguments tasks values get aggregated
and printed as single values.
Adding --per-tasks option to print values per task.
$ perf stat -e cycles,instructions --per-thread -p 30190,30242

Also works under interval mode:

It works only with -t and -p options, otherwise following error is
printed:
$ perf stat -e cycles --per-thread -I 1000 ls
The --per-thread option is only available when monitoring via -p -t options.
-p, --pid <pid> stat events on existing process id
-t, --tid <tid> stat events on existing thread id
