Make perf build for x86 once the UAPI disintegration patches for that arch
have been applied by adding the appropriate -I flags - in the right order -
and then converting some #includes that use ../.. notation to find main kernel
headerfiles to use <asm/foo.h> and <linux/foo.h> instead.
Note that -Iarch/foo/include/uapi is present _before_ -Iarch/foo/include.
This makes sure we get the userspace version of the pt_regs struct. Ideally,
we wouldn't have the latter -I flag at all, but unfortunately we want
asm/svm.h and asm/vmx.h in builtin-kvm.c and these aren't part of the UAPI -
at least not for x86. I wonder if the bits outside of the __KERNEL__ guards
*should* be transferred there.
I note also that perf seems to do its dependency handling manually by listing
all the header files it might want to use in LIB_H in the Makefile. Can this
be changed to use -MD?
Note that to do make this work, we need to export and UAPI disintegrate
linux/hw_breakpoint.h, which I think should've been exported previously so that
perf can access the bits. We have to do this in the same patch to maintain
bisectability.

Currently the record command sets all events initially as disabled.
There's non conditional perf_evlist__enable call, that enables all
events before we exec tracee program. That actually screws whole
enable_on_exec logic, because the event is enabled before the traced
program got executed.
What we actually want is:
1) For any type of traced program:
- all independent events and group leaders are disabled
- all group members are enabled
Group members are ruled by group leaders. They need to
be enabled, because the group scheduling relies on that.
2) For traced programs executed by perf:
- all independent events and group leaders have
enable_on_exec set
- we don't specifically enable or disable any event during
the record command
Independent events and group leaders are initially disabled
and get enabled by exec. Group members are ruled by group
leaders as stated in 1).
3) For traced programs attached by perf (pid/tid):
- we specifically enable or disable all events during
the record command
When attaching events to already running traced we
enable/disable events specifically, as there's no
initial traced exec call.
Fixing appropriate perf_event_attr test case to cover this change.

perf.data files and moreover, match hist_entries (buckets) in multiple
events in a group.
So the "baseline"/"leader" will instead of a ->pair pointer, use a
list_head, that will link to the pairs and hists__match use it.
Following that perf_evlist__link will link the hists in its evsel
groups.

There's another source of overhead in the perf version string generator:
git update-index -q --refresh
... which will iterate the whole checked out tree. This can be pretty
slow on NFS volumes, but takes some time even with local SSD disks and a
fully cached kernel tree:
$ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
Performance counter stats for 'util/PERF-VERSION-GEN' (3 runs):
0.306999221 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.56% )
So remove the .dirty differentiator as well - it adds little information
because locally patched git trees are common, but seldom are the perf
tools modified.
So a lot of version strings are reported as 'dirty' while in fact they
are pristine perf builds. For example 99% of my perf builds are not
patched but the kernel tree is slightly patched, which adds the .dirty
tag.
Eliminating that tag speeds up version generation by another order of
magnitude:
$ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --sync --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g4b0bd3
PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g4b0bd3
PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g4b0bd3

Building perf is pretty slow on trees that have a lot of commits
relative to the nearest Git tag. This slowness manifests itself during
version string generation:
$ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --sync --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.1458.g5399b3b
PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.1458.g5399b3b
PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.1458.g5399b3b
Performance counter stats for 'util/PERF-VERSION-GEN' (3 runs):
2.857503976 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.22% )
The build can be even slower than that, when one over NFS volumes.
The reason for the slowness is that util/PERF-VERSION-GEN uses "git
describe" to generate the string, which has to count the "number of
commits distance" from the nearest tag - the ".1458." count in the
output above. For that Git had to extract and decompress 1458 Git
objects, which takes time and bandwidth.
But this "number of commits" value is mostly irrelevant in practice. We
either want to know an approximate tag name, or we want to know the
precise sha1.
So this patch simplifies the version string to:
PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
which speeds up the version string generation script by an order of
magnitude:
$ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --sync --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty

This was found during chasing down the header output regression. The
strbuf_addf() was checking buffer length with a result of vscnprintf()
which cannot be greater than that of strbuf_avail().
Since numa topology and pmu mapping info in header were converted to use
strbuf, it sometimes caused uninteresting behaviors with the broken
strbuf.
Fix it by using vsnprintf() which returns desired output string length
regardless of the available buffer size and grow the buffer if needed.

Andrew reported that the commit 7e94cfcc9d ("perf header: Use pre-
processed session env when printing") regresses the header output. It
was because of a missed string pointer calculation in the loop.

The commit 0c1fe6b:
'perf tools: Have the page size value available for all tools'
Broke the python binding because the global variable 'page_size' is
initialized on the main() routine, that is not called when using
just the python binding, causing evlist.mmap() to fail because it
expects that variable to be initialized to the system's page size.
Fix it by initializing it on the binding init routine.

With this function, other modules can basically check whether a file is
a legal perf data file by checking its first 8 bytes against all
possible perf magic numbers.
Change the function name from check_perf_magic to more meaningful
is_perf_magic as suggested by acme.

Create a script browser, so that user can check all the available
scripts for current perf data file and run them inside the main perf
report or annotation browsers, for all perf samples or for samples
belong to one thread/symbol.
Please be noted: current script browser is only for report use, and
doesn't cover the record phase, IOW it must run against one existing
perf data file.
The work flow is, users can use function key to list all the available
scripts for current perf data file in system and chose one, which will
be executed with popen("perf script -s xxx.xx",) and all the output
lines are put into one ui browser, pressing 'q' or left arrow key will
make it return to previous browser.

The perf_event__synthesize_threads routine synthesizes all the existing
threads in the system, because we don't have any kernel facilities to
ask for PERF_RECORD_{FORK,MMAP,COMM} for existing threads.
It was returning an error as soon as one thread couldn't be synthesized,
which is a bit extreme when, for instance, a forkish workload is
running, like a kernel compile.

Add automated tests for all events found under PMU/events
directory. Tested events are in the 'cpu/event=xxx/u' format,
where 'xxx' is substituted by every event found.
The 'event=xxx' term is translated to the cpu specific term.
We only check that the event is created (not the real config
numbers) and that the modifier is properly set.
