For dummy events that keep tracking, we may need to modify its cpu_maps.
For example, change the cpu_maps to record sideband events for all CPUS.
Add perf_evlist__go_system_wide() helper to support this scenario.

I think this should be:
void evsel__set_system_wide(struct evsel *evsel)
{
if (evsel->system_wide)
return;
evsel->system_wide = true;
if (evsel->evlist->core.needs_map_propagation)
...
The API being on evlist makes it look like all evsels are affected.
Thanks,
Ian

This part of the code is implemented according to Adrian's suggestion.
Refer to:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-perf-users/206972a3-d44d-1c75-3fbc-426427614543@intel.com/
The logic of both is the same, and either is OK for me.
If really want to change it, please let me know.

Currently, intel-bts, intel-pt, and arm-spe may add a dummy event for
tracking to the evlist. We may need to search for the dummy event for
some settings. Therefore, add evlist__findnew_tracking_event() helper.
evlist__findnew_tracking_event() also deal with system_wide maps if
system_wide is true.

Given the first two sentences I don't understand why this is
evlist__findnew_tracking_event and not evlist__findnew_dummy_event?
Are you setting tracking on other events other than dummy? If so, then
the commit message isn't right. If not then I'd prefer not to use
tracking event in the function name.

Could you fix the explanation here, what does "deal with system_wide"
mean? A kerneldoc comment and explanation of the system_wide argument
would be useful.

Yes, add this helper to find tracking event for some setting, will
modify commit message, like as follows:
Currently, intel-bts, intel-pt, and arm-spe may add tracking event to
the evlist. We may need to search for the tracking event for
some settings. Therefore, add evlist__findnew_tracking_event() helper.

In the next version, details will be described as follows:
If system_wide is true, evlist__findnew_tracking_event() set the cpu map
of the evsel to all online CPUs.
Is such an explanation okay?

User space tasks can migrate between CPUs, so when tracing selected CPUs,
sideband for all CPUs is needed. In this case set the cpu map of the evsel
to all online CPUs. This may modify the original cpu map of the evlist.
Therefore, need to check whether the preceding scenario exists before
record__init_thread_masks().
Dummy tracking has been set in record__open(), move it before
record__init_thread_masks() and add a helper for unified processing.
The sys_perf_event_open invoked is as follows:

I have a hard time understanding this commit message. Let me have a go:
In order to set cpu maps correctly on dummy events they need to set up
later. Factor out the dummy event initialization from record__open and
move it to its own function record__setup_dummy_event. Move the call
to the record__setup_dummy to before the call to
record__init_thread_masks in cmd_record.

This code is explicitly talking about dummy events but the function is

This comment directly copies the original content.
I can change to "tracking event" in the next version.

User space tasks can migrate between CPUs, we need to track side-band
events for all CPUs.
The specific scenarios are as follows:
CPU0 CPU1
perf record -C 0 start
taskA starts to be created and executed
-> PERF_RECORD_COMM and PERF_RECORD_MMAP
events only deliver to CPU1
......
|
migrate to CPU0
|
Running on CPU0 <----------/
...
perf record -C 0 stop
Now perf samples the PC of taskA. However, perf does not record the
PERF_RECORD_COMM and PERF_RECORD_MMAP events of taskA.
Therefore, the comm and symbols of taskA cannot be parsed.
The solution is to record sideband events for all CPUs when tracing
selected CPUs. Because this modifies the default behavior, add related
comments to the perf record man page.
The sys_perf_event_open invoked is as follows:
# perf --debug verbose=3 record -e cpu-clock -C 1 true
<SNIP>
Opening: cpu-clock
------------------------------------------------------------

type 1 (PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE)

I think this would be better named something like:

Please no. The tracking event is a perf tool invention identified
by evsel->tracking and used in evsel__config(). Please don't
confuse it with dummy events. Just because the tracking event
*might* be a dummy event does not mean a dummy event is the
tracking event.

1. Because a dummy sideband event is added to the sampling of specified
CPUs. When evlist contains evsel of different sample_type,
evlist__config() will change the default PERF_SAMPLE_ID bit to
PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFICATION bit.
The attr sample_type expected value of base-record and system-wide-dummy
in test-record-C0 needs to be updated.
2. The perf record uses evlist__add_aux_dummy() instead of
evlist__add_dummy() to add a dummy event.
The expected value of system-wide-dummy attr needs to be updated.
The perf test result is as follows:
# ./perf test list 2>&1 | grep 'Setup struct perf_event_attr'
17: Setup struct perf_event_attr
# ./perf test 17
17: Setup struct perf_event_attr : Ok

Will the kernel test robot complain about the previous patches
breaking this test? It may be best to update the test while changing
the behavior in those patches.

Add a new test case to record sideband events for all CPUs when tracing
selected CPUs
Test result:

95: perf record sideband tests

Could you add some kind of cleanup on trap function like:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools-next.git/tree/tools/perf/tests/shell/record.sh?h=perf-tools-next#n26
It'd be okay to do this as a follow up patch.
Thanks,
Ian

If all (non-dummy) evsel have exclude_user, system_wide sideband is not
needed. Add this test scenario.
Test result:
# ./perf test list 2>&1 | grep 'Setup struct perf_event_attr'
17: Setup struct perf_event_attr
# ./perf test 17 -v
17: Setup struct perf_event_attr :
--- start ---

<SNIP>
