+Performance Counters for Linux
+------------------------------
+
+Performance counters are special hardware registers available on most modern
+CPUs. These registers count the number of certain types of hw events: such
+as instructions executed, cachemisses suffered, or branches mis-predicted -
+without slowing down the kernel or applications. These registers can also
+trigger interrupts when a threshold number of events have passed - and can
+thus be used to profile the code that runs on that CPU.
+
+The Linux Performance Counter subsystem provides an abstraction of these
+hardware capabilities. It provides per task and per CPU counters, counter
+groups, and it provides event capabilities on top of those.  It
+provides "virtual" 64-bit counters, regardless of the width of the
+underlying hardware counters.
+
+Performance counters are accessed via special file descriptors.
+There's one file descriptor per virtual counter used.
+
+The special file descriptor is opened via the perf_counter_open()
+system call:
+
+   int sys_perf_counter_open(struct perf_counter_hw_event *hw_event_uptr,
+			     pid_t pid, int cpu, int group_fd,
+			     unsigned long flags);
+
+The syscall returns the new fd. The fd can be used via the normal
+VFS system calls: read() can be used to read the counter, fcntl()
+can be used to set the blocking mode, etc.
+
+Multiple counters can be kept open at a time, and the counters
+can be poll()ed.
+
+When creating a new counter fd, 'perf_counter_hw_event' is:
+
+struct perf_counter_hw_event {
+        /*
+         * The MSB of the config word signifies if the rest contains cpu
+         * specific (raw) counter configuration data, if unset, the next
+         * 7 bits are an event type and the rest of the bits are the event
+         * identifier.
+         */

+
+The 'config' field specifies what the counter should count.  It
+is divided into 3 bit-fields:
+
+raw_type: 1 bit   (most significant bit)	0x8000_0000_0000_0000
+type:	  7 bits  (next most significant)	0x7f00_0000_0000_0000
+event_id: 56 bits (least significant)		0x00ff_ffff_ffff_ffff
+
+If 'raw_type' is 1, then the counter will count a hardware event
+specified by the remaining 63 bits of event_config.  The encoding is
+machine-specific.
+
+If 'raw_type' is 0, then the 'type' field says what kind of counter
+this is, with the following encoding:
+
+enum perf_event_types {
+	PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE		= 0,
+	PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE		= 1,
+	PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT		= 2,
+};
+
+A counter of PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE will count the hardware event
+specified by 'event_id':
+
+/*
+ * Generalized performance counter event types, used by the hw_event.event_id
+ * parameter of the sys_perf_counter_open() syscall:
+ */
+enum hw_event_ids {
+	/*
+	 * Common hardware events, generalized by the kernel:
+	 */
+	PERF_COUNT_CPU_CYCLES		= 0,
+	PERF_COUNT_INSTRUCTIONS		= 1,
+	PERF_COUNT_CACHE_REFERENCES	= 2,
+	PERF_COUNT_CACHE_MISSES		= 3,
+	PERF_COUNT_BRANCH_INSTRUCTIONS	= 4,
+	PERF_COUNT_BRANCH_MISSES	= 5,
+	PERF_COUNT_BUS_CYCLES		= 6,
+};
+
+These are standardized types of events that work relatively uniformly
+on all CPUs that implement Performance Counters support under Linux,
+although there may be variations (e.g., different CPUs might count
+cache references and misses at different levels of the cache hierarchy).
+If a CPU is not able to count the selected event, then the system call
+will return -EINVAL.
+
+More hw_event_types are supported as well, but they are CPU-specific
+and accessed as raw events.  For example, to count "External bus
+cycles while bus lock signal asserted" events on Intel Core CPUs, pass
+in a 0x4064 event_id value and set hw_event.raw_type to 1.
+
+A counter of type PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE will count one of the available
+software events, selected by 'event_id':
+
+/*
+ * Special "software" counters provided by the kernel, even if the hardware
+ * does not support performance counters. These counters measure various
+ * physical and sw events of the kernel (and allow the profiling of them as
+ * well):
+ */
+enum sw_event_ids {
+	PERF_COUNT_CPU_CLOCK		= 0,
+	PERF_COUNT_TASK_CLOCK		= 1,
+	PERF_COUNT_PAGE_FAULTS		= 2,
+	PERF_COUNT_CONTEXT_SWITCHES	= 3,
+	PERF_COUNT_CPU_MIGRATIONS	= 4,
+	PERF_COUNT_PAGE_FAULTS_MIN	= 5,
+	PERF_COUNT_PAGE_FAULTS_MAJ	= 6,
+};
+
+Counters of the type PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT are available when the ftrace event
+tracer is available, and event_id values can be obtained from
+/debug/tracing/events/*/*/id
+
+
+Counters come in two flavours: counting counters and sampling
+counters.  A "counting" counter is one that is used for counting the
+number of events that occur, and is characterised by having
+irq_period = 0.
+
+
+A read() on a counter returns the current value of the counter and possible
+additional values as specified by 'read_format', each value is a u64 (8 bytes)
+in size.
+
+/*
+ * Bits that can be set in hw_event.read_format to request that
+ * reads on the counter should return the indicated quantities,
+ * in increasing order of bit value, after the counter value.
+ */
+enum perf_counter_read_format {
+        PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED  =  1,
+        PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING  =  2,
+};
+
+Using these additional values one can establish the overcommit ratio for a
+particular counter allowing one to take the round-robin scheduling effect
+into account.
+
+
+A "sampling" counter is one that is set up to generate an interrupt
+every N events, where N is given by 'irq_period'.  A sampling counter
+has irq_period > 0. The record_type controls what data is recorded on each
+interrupt:
+
+/*
+ * Bits that can be set in hw_event.record_type to request information
+ * in the overflow packets.
+ */
+enum perf_counter_record_format {
+        PERF_RECORD_IP          = 1U << 0,
+        PERF_RECORD_TID         = 1U << 1,
+        PERF_RECORD_TIME        = 1U << 2,
+        PERF_RECORD_ADDR        = 1U << 3,
+        PERF_RECORD_GROUP       = 1U << 4,
+        PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN   = 1U << 5,
+};
+
+Such (and other) events will be recorded in a ring-buffer, which is
+available to user-space using mmap() (see below).
+
+The 'disabled' bit specifies whether the counter starts out disabled
+or enabled.  If it is initially disabled, it can be enabled by ioctl
+or prctl (see below).
+
+The 'inherit' bit, if set, specifies that this counter should count
+events on descendant tasks as well as the task specified.  This only
+applies to new descendents, not to any existing descendents at the
+time the counter is created (nor to any new descendents of existing
+descendents).
+
+The 'pinned' bit, if set, specifies that the counter should always be
+on the CPU if at all possible.  It only applies to hardware counters
+and only to group leaders.  If a pinned counter cannot be put onto the
+CPU (e.g. because there are not enough hardware counters or because of
+a conflict with some other event), then the counter goes into an
+'error' state, where reads return end-of-file (i.e. read() returns 0)
+until the counter is subsequently enabled or disabled.
+
+The 'exclusive' bit, if set, specifies that when this counter's group
+is on the CPU, it should be the only group using the CPU's counters.
+In future, this will allow sophisticated monitoring programs to supply
+extra configuration information via 'extra_config_len' to exploit
+advanced features of the CPU's Performance Monitor Unit (PMU) that are
+not otherwise accessible and that might disrupt other hardware
+counters.
+
+The 'exclude_user', 'exclude_kernel' and 'exclude_hv' bits provide a
+way to request that counting of events be restricted to times when the
+CPU is in user, kernel and/or hypervisor mode.
+
+The 'mmap' and 'munmap' bits allow recording of PROT_EXEC mmap/munmap
+operations, these can be used to relate userspace IP addresses to actual
+code, even after the mapping (or even the whole process) is gone,
+these events are recorded in the ring-buffer (see below).
+
+The 'comm' bit allows tracking of process comm data on process creation.
+This too is recorded in the ring-buffer (see below).
+
+The 'pid' parameter to the perf_counter_open() system call allows the
+counter to be specific to a task:
+
+ pid == 0: if the pid parameter is zero, the counter is attached to the
+ current task.
+
+ pid > 0: the counter is attached to a specific task (if the current task
+ has sufficient privilege to do so)
+
+ pid < 0: all tasks are counted (per cpu counters)
+
+The 'cpu' parameter allows a counter to be made specific to a CPU:
+
+ cpu >= 0: the counter is restricted to a specific CPU
+ cpu == -1: the counter counts on all CPUs
+
+(Note: the combination of 'pid == -1' and 'cpu == -1' is not valid.)
+
+A 'pid > 0' and 'cpu == -1' counter is a per task counter that counts
+events of that task and 'follows' that task to whatever CPU the task
+gets schedule to. Per task counters can be created by any user, for
+their own tasks.
+
+A 'pid == -1' and 'cpu == x' counter is a per CPU counter that counts
+all events on CPU-x. Per CPU counters need CAP_SYS_ADMIN privilege.
+
+The 'flags' parameter is currently unused and must be zero.
+
+The 'group_fd' parameter allows counter "groups" to be set up.  A
+counter group has one counter which is the group "leader".  The leader
+is created first, with group_fd = -1 in the perf_counter_open call
+that creates it.  The rest of the group members are created
+subsequently, with group_fd giving the fd of the group leader.
+(A single counter on its own is created with group_fd = -1 and is
+considered to be a group with only 1 member.)
+
+A counter group is scheduled onto the CPU as a unit, that is, it will
+only be put onto the CPU if all of the counters in the group can be
+put onto the CPU.  This means that the values of the member counters
+can be meaningfully compared, added, divided (to get ratios), etc.,
+with each other, since they have counted events for the same set of
+executed instructions.
+
+
+Like stated, asynchronous events, like counter overflow or PROT_EXEC mmap
+tracking are logged into a ring-buffer. This ring-buffer is created and
+accessed through mmap().
+
+The mmap size should be 1+2^n pages, where the first page is a meta-data page
+(struct perf_counter_mmap_page) that contains various bits of information such
+as where the ring-buffer head is.
+
+/*

+
+Notification of new events is possible through poll()/select()/epoll() and
+fcntl() managing signals.
+
+Normally a notification is generated for every page filled, however one can
+additionally set perf_counter_hw_event.wakeup_events to generate one every
+so many counter overflow events.
+
+Future work will include a splice() interface to the ring-buffer.
+
+
+Counters can be enabled and disabled in two ways: via ioctl and via
+prctl.  When a counter is disabled, it doesn't count or generate
+events but does continue to exist and maintain its count value.
+
+An individual counter or counter group can be enabled with
+
+	ioctl(fd, PERF_COUNTER_IOC_ENABLE);
+
+or disabled with
+
+	ioctl(fd, PERF_COUNTER_IOC_DISABLE);
+
+Enabling or disabling the leader of a group enables or disables the
+whole group; that is, while the group leader is disabled, none of the
+counters in the group will count.  Enabling or disabling a member of a
+group other than the leader only affects that counter - disabling an
+non-leader stops that counter from counting but doesn't affect any
+other counter.
+
+Additionally, non-inherited overflow counters can use
+
+	ioctl(fd, PERF_COUNTER_IOC_REFRESH, nr);
+
+to enable a counter for 'nr' events, after which it gets disabled again.
+
+A process can enable or disable all the counter groups that are
+attached to it, using prctl:
+
+	prctl(PR_TASK_PERF_COUNTERS_ENABLE);
+
+	prctl(PR_TASK_PERF_COUNTERS_DISABLE);
+
+This applies to all counters on the current process, whether created
+by this process or by another, and doesn't affect any counters that
+this process has created on other processes.  It only enables or
+disables the group leaders, not any other members in the groups.

+ * This function implements the Damerau-Levenshtein algorithm to
+ * calculate a distance between strings.
+ *
+ * Basically, it says how many letters need to be swapped, substituted,
+ * deleted from, or added to string1, at least, to get string2.
+ *
+ * The idea is to build a distance matrix for the substrings of both
+ * strings.  To avoid a large space complexity, only the last three rows
+ * are kept in memory (if swaps had the same or higher cost as one deletion
+ * plus one insertion, only two rows would be needed).
+ *
+ * At any stage, "i + 1" denotes the length of the current substring of
+ * string1 that the distance is calculated for.
+ *
+ * row2 holds the current row, row1 the previous row (i.e. for the substring
+ * of string1 of length "i"), and row0 the row before that.
+ *
+ * In other words, at the start of the big loop, row2[j + 1] contains the
+ * Damerau-Levenshtein distance between the substring of string1 of length
+ * "i" and the substring of string2 of length "j + 1".
+ *
+ * All the big loop does is determine the partial minimum-cost paths.
+ *
+ * It does so by calculating the costs of the path ending in characters
+ * i (in string1) and j (in string2), respectively, given that the last
+ * operation is a substition, a swap, a deletion, or an insertion.
+ *
+ * This implementation allows the costs to be weighted:
+ *
+ * - w (as in "sWap")
+ * - s (as in "Substitution")
+ * - a (for insertion, AKA "Add")
+ * - d (as in "Deletion")
+ *
+ * Note that this algorithm calculates a distance _iff_ d == a.

+
+  To use rbtrees you'll have to implement your own insert and search cores.
+  This will avoid us to use callbacks and to drop drammatically performances.
+  I know it's not the cleaner way,  but in C (not in C++) to get
+  performances and genericity...
+
+  Some example of insert and search follows here. The search is a plain
+  normal search over an ordered tree. The insert instead must be implemented
+  int two steps: as first thing the code must insert the element in
+  order as a red leaf in the tree, then the support library function
+  rb_insert_color() must be called. Such function will do the
+  not trivial work to rebalance the rbtree if necessary.

+
+/*
+ * Strbuf's can be use in many ways: as a byte array, or to store arbitrary
+ * long, overflow safe strings.
+ *
+ * Strbufs has some invariants that are very important to keep in mind:
+ *
+ * 1. the ->buf member is always malloc-ed, hence strbuf's can be used to
+ *    build complex strings/buffers whose final size isn't easily known.
+ *
+ *    It is NOT legal to copy the ->buf pointer away.
+ *    `strbuf_detach' is the operation that detachs a buffer from its shell
+ *    while keeping the shell valid wrt its invariants.
+ *
+ * 2. the ->buf member is a byte array that has at least ->len + 1 bytes
+ *    allocated. The extra byte is used to store a '\0', allowing the ->buf
+ *    member to be a valid C-string. Every strbuf function ensure this
+ *    invariant is preserved.
+ *
+ *    Note that it is OK to "play" with the buffer directly if you work it
+ *    that way:
+ *
+ *    strbuf_grow(sb, SOME_SIZE);
+ *       ... Here, the memory array starting at sb->buf, and of length
+ *       ... strbuf_avail(sb) is all yours, and you are sure that
+ *       ... strbuf_avail(sb) is at least SOME_SIZE.
+ *    strbuf_setlen(sb, sb->len + SOME_OTHER_SIZE);
+ *
+ *    Of course, SOME_OTHER_SIZE must be smaller or equal to strbuf_avail(sb).
+ *
+ *    Doing so is safe, though if it has to be done in many places, adding the
+ *    missing API to the strbuf module is the way to go.
+ *
+ *    XXX: do _not_ assume that the area that is yours is of size ->alloc - 1
+ *         even if it's true in the current implementation. Alloc is somehow a
+ *         "private" member that should not be messed with.
