perf_regs.c does not get built on Powerpc as CONFIG_PERF_REGS is false.
So the weak definition for 'sample_regs_masks' doesn't get picked up.
Adding perf_regs.o to util/Build unconditionally, exposes a redefinition
error for 'perf_reg_value()' function (due to the static inline version
in util/perf_regs.h). So use #ifdef HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT' around that
function.

This reverts commit 998ef75ddb.
The commit itself does not appear to be buggy per se, but it is exposing
a bug in ext4 (and Ted thinks ext3 too, but we solved that by getting
rid of it). It's too late in the release cycle to really worry about
this, even if Dave Hansen has a patch that may actually fix the
underlying ext4 problem. We can (and should) revisit this for the next
release.
The problem is that moving the prefaulting later now exposes a special
case with partially successful writes that isn't handled correctly. And
the prefaulting likely isn't normally even that much of a performance
issue - it looks like at least one reason Dave saw this in his
performance tests is that he also ran them on Skylake that now supports
the new SMAP code, which makes the normally very cheap user space
prefaulting noticeably more expensive.

In multi-segment system, uncore devices may belong to buses whose segment
number is other than 0:
....
0000:ff:10.5 System peripheral: Intel Corporation Xeon E5 v3/Core i7 Scratchpad & Semaphore Registers (rev 03)
...
0001:7f:10.5 System peripheral: Intel Corporation Xeon E5 v3/Core i7 Scratchpad & Semaphore Registers (rev 03)

...
0001:ff:10.5 System peripheral: Intel Corporation Xeon E5 v3/Core i7 Scratchpad & Semaphore Registers (rev 03
...
In that case, relation of bus number and physical id may be broken
because "uncore_pcibus_to_physid" doesn't take account of PCI segment.
For example, bus 0000:ff and 0001:ff uses the same entry of
"uncore_pcibus_to_physid" array.
This patch fixes this problem by introducing the segment-aware pci2phy_map instead.

This patch adds new PMUs to support cstate related free running
(read-only) counters. These counters may be used simultaneously by other
tools, such as turbostat. However, it still make sense to implement them
in perf. Because we can conveniently collect them together with other
events, and allow to use them from tools without special MSR access
code.
These counters include CORE_C*_RESIDENCY and PKG_C*_RESIDENCY.
According to counters' scope and category, two PMUs are registered with
the perf_event core subsystem.
- 'cstate_core': The counter is available for each physical core. The
counters include CORE_C*_RESIDENCY.
- 'cstate_pkg': The counter is available for each physical package. The
counters include PKG_C*_RESIDENCY.
The events are exposed in sysfs for use by perf stat and other tools.
The files are:
/sys/devices/cstate_core/events/c*-residency
/sys/devices/cstate_pkg/events/c*-residency
These events only support system-wide mode counting.
The /sys/devices/cstate_*/cpumask file can be used by tools to figure
out which CPUs to monitor by default.
The PMU type (attr->type) is dynamically allocated and is available from
/sys/devices/core_misc/type and /sys/device/cstate_*/type.
Sampling is not supported.
Here is an example.
- To caculate the fraction of time when the core is running in C6 state
CORE_C6_time% = CORE_C6_RESIDENCY / TSC
# perf stat -x, -e"cstate_core/c6-residency/,msr/tsc/" -C0 -- taskset -c 0 sleep 5
11838820015,,cstate_core/c6-residency/,5175919658,100.00
11877130740,,msr/tsc/,5175922010,100.00
For sleep, 99.7% of time we ran in C6 state.

With commit 633d6f17cd (x86/xen: prepare
p2m list for memory hotplug) the P2M may be sized to accomdate a much
larger amount of memory than the domain currently has.
When saving a domain, the toolstack must scan all the P2M looking for
populated pages. This results in a performance regression due to the
unnecessary scanning.
Instead of reporting (via shared_info) the maximum possible size of
the P2M, hint at the last PFN which might be populated. This hint is
increased as new leaves are added to the P2M (in the expectation that
they will be used for populated entries).

Do it using the recently introduced ui_brower scrolling mode, setting
ui_browser.columns to the number of sort columns and then, when
rendering each line, skipping as many initial columns as the user
pressed the right arrow.
As the user presses the left arrow, the ui_browser code will remove the
scrolling counter and the left scrolling takes place.
The right arrow key was an alias for ENTER, so people used to press it
may get a bit annoyed at first, sorry! Ditto for ESC and the left key.
Callchains can be left as is or we can, when rendering the Symbol
column, store the at what position on the screen it is and then
using ui_browser__gotorc() to print it from there, i.e. the callchain
would move around with the symbol.
Leaving it as is, i.e. at a fixed position, close to the left, saves
precious screen real state for it, so I'm inclined to leave it as is
now.

If the classes derived from ui_browser want to do some sort of
horizontal scrolling, they have just to set ui_browser->columns to
the number of columns available.
Those columns can be the number of characters on the screen, if what is
desired is to scroll character by character, or the number of columns in
a spreadsheet like table.
This is what the hist_browser will do, skipping ui_browser->horiz_scroll
columns when rendering each of its lines.

Peter reports that it's possible to trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE() in the
Intel CQM code by combining a hardware event and an Intel CQM
(software) event into a group. Unfortunately, the perf tools are not
able to create this bundle and we need to manually construct a test
case.
For posterity, record Peter's proof of concept test case in tools/perf
so that it presents a model for how we can perform architecture
specific tests, or "arch tests", in perf in the future.
The particular issue triggered in the test case is that when the
counter for the hardware event overflows and triggers a PMI we'll read
both the hardware event and the software event counters.
Unfortunately, for CQM that involves performing an IPI to read the CQM
event counters on all sockets, which in NMI context triggers the
WARN_ON_ONCE().

Tests that only make sense for some architectures currently live in
the same place as the generic tests. Move out the x86-specific tests
into tools/perf/arch/x86/tests and define an 'arch_tests' array, which
is the list of tests that only apply to the build architecture.
The main idea is to encourage developers to add arch tests to build
out perf's test coverage, without dumping everything in
tools/perf/tests.

Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf.
Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on
the pull request, which is why it's going in only now.
The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure
than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty
interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems.
strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an
overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with
zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers.
strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking
the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value
which returns the original length of the source string. Which means
that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and
you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes
error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily
subtle.
strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination
(but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and
making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also
doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for
untrusted source data too.
So why did I waffle about this for so long?
Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing
these interminable series of trivial conversion patches.
And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the
conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse.
Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention
span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches
of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested.
So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface.
But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in
places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things
that aren't actually known to be broken.
* 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile:

The MIPS syscall handler code used to return -ENOSYS on invalid
syscalls. Whilst this is expected, it caused problems for seccomp
filters because the said filters never had the change to run since
the code returned -ENOSYS before triggering them. This caused
problems on the chromium testsuite for filters looking for invalid
syscalls. This has now changed and the seccomp filters are always
run even if the syscall is invalid. We return -ENOSYS once we
return from the seccomp filters. Moreover, similar codepaths have
been merged in the process which simplifies somewhat the overall
syscall code.
