The current fixed metadata version format (version 0), means that adding metadata parameter items renders files from a previous version of perf unreadable. Per CPU parameters appear in a fixed order, but there is no field to indicate the number of ETM parameters per CPU.
This patch updates the per CPU parameter blocks to include a NR_PARAMs value which indicates the number of parameters in the block.
The header version is incremented to 1. Fixed ordering is retained, new ETM parameters are added to the end of the list.
The reader code is updated to be able to read current version 0 files, For version 1, the reader will read the number of parameters in the per CPU block. This allows the reader to process older or newer files that may have different numbers of parameters than in use at the time perf was built.

Seems to me, this patch is big and have several complex logics, so it's better to divide into smaller patches in one series. But this is not necessary, please see below comments.

This is not correct, for the perf data with version 0, you should start to print from item 2 for CS_ETM_ETMCR; Only for version 1, it should start from 3 for CS_ETM_ETMCR.

If we set CS_ETM_NR_PARAMS as self-contained value (it presents all item numbers from CS_ETM_MAGIC to CS_ETMV4_TRCAUTHSTATUS), and we can just support backward compatibility and don't support forward compabitility, I think the logic can be simplized.

Hi Mike,

The current fixed metadata version format (version 0), means that adding metadata parameter items renders files from a previous version of perf unreadable. Per CPU parameters appear in a fixed order, but there is no field to indicate the number of ETM parameters per CPU.
This patch updates the per CPU parameter blocks to include a NR_PARAMs value which indicates the number of parameters in the block.
The header version is incremented to 1. Fixed ordering is retained, new ETM parameters are added to the end of the list.
The reader code is updated to be able to read current version 0 files, For version 1, the reader will read the number of parameters in the per CPU block. This allows the reader to process older or newer files that may have different numbers of parameters than in use at the time perf was built.
Seems to me, this patch is big and have several complex logics, so it's better to divide into smaller patches in one series. But this is not necessary, please see below comments.
It is quite big, but all the changes are directly related to the header file format change.

This is here to make the print loop easier to read. The actual print statement is deeply indented, and all the other statements have format as a pre-defined string.

No it is not. If the new version perf reads a version 0 file then the following is output:
0x188 [0x148]: PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO type: 3 Reader Header version 1 Header version 0 PMU type/num cpus 900000004

version = val[0]; for (i = CS_HEADER_VERSION_0_MAX; cpu < num; cpu++) {Considering in the same loop, it needs to handle version 0 and 1 saperately, so it's better to use two functions to encapsulate metadata dumping:
int version = val[0]; for (i = CS_HEADER_VERSION_0_MAX; cpu < num; cpu++) { if (version == 0) cs_etm__print_metadata_v0(cpu, val, i); else if (version == 1) cs_etm__print_metadata_v1(cpu, val, i); else /* Not supported */ return; }
OK - I'll see if this can be made feasible.

OK
/* after common block */for (j = 3; j < nr_params + 3; j++, i++) {This is not correct, for the perf data with version 0, you should start to print from item 2 for CS_ETM_ETMCR; Only for version 1, it should start from 3 for CS_ETM_ETMCR.
The 'j' indexes into the print formats which are v1 ordered, not the incoming data. So we have to skip the index to NR_PARAMS when printing v0 files. But worth a comment here I think.
/* if newer record - could be excess params */if (j >= CS_ETM_PRIV_MAX)I think we need support backward compatibility, but cannot support forward compatibility. So need to report error for this?
This depends on the content of the trace data. The discussions we had within ARM were triggered when a perf.data file from a customer who had added their own parameter to the list failed the perf report --dump when we tried to analyse it. The idea of forward compatibily is that you can at least see there are additional parameters, which makes support tasks a little easier.
If a newer version of perf is used in this sort of case to obtain data and pass it on, analysis is still possible if the new parameter is not directly relevant for the decode for a particular test. But if analysis does fail - then perf report --dump will show the "Unknown" parameters in the file, rather than silently crash out as the case is now.

See my comments above for the reason we want to support limited forward compatibility.
Thanks for the review.
