Subject[PATCH v2 00/11] perf c2c: Sort cacheline with all loads
Date
This patch set is to sort cache line for all load operations which hit
any cache levels. For single cache line view, it shows the load
references for loads with cache hits and with cache misses respectively.

This series is a following for the old patch set "perf c2c: Sort
cacheline with LLC load" [1], in the old patch set it tries to sort
cache line with the load operations in last level cache (LLC), after
testing we found the trace data doesn't contain LLC events if the
platform isn't a NUMA system. For this reason, this series refines the
implementation to sort on all cache levels hits of load operations; it's
reasonable for us to review the load and store opreations, if detects
any cache line is accessed by multi-threads, this hints that the cache
line is possible for false sharing.

This patch set is clearly applied on perf/core branch with the latest
commit db0ea13cc741 ("perf evlist: Use the right prefix for 'struct
evlist' record methods"). And the changes has been tested on x86 and
Arm64, the testing result is shown as below.

The testing result on x86:

# perf c2c record -- false_sharing.exe 2
# perf c2c report -d all --coalesce tid,pid,iaddr,dso --stdio

The testing result on Arm64 (Hisilicon D06); please note, the Arm SPE
data source patch set has not been merged into the mainline kernel and
a potential issue for store operations is working in progress, so the
final outputting result might have minor differences.

# perf c2c record -- false_sharing.exe 2
# perf c2c report -d all --coalesce tid,pid,iaddr,dso --stdio

Changes from v1:
* Changed from sorting on LLC to sorting on all loads with cache hits;
* Added patches 06/11, 07/11 for refactoring macros;
* Added patch 08/11 for refactoring node header, so can display "%loads"
rather than "%hitms" in the header;
* Added patch 09/11 to add local pointers for pointing to output metrics
string and sort string (Juri);
* Added warning in percent_hitm() for the display "all", which should
never happen (Juri).
