On IBM z13 machine types 2964 and 2965 the descriptor
sizes for sampling and diagnostic sampling entries
might be missing in the trailer entry and are set to zero.
This leads to a perf report failure when processing diagnostic
sampling entries.
This patch adds missing descriptor sizes when the trailer entry
contains zero for these fields.

The timestamp can use useful to find part of a trace that has an error
without outputting all of the trace e.g. using the itrace 's' option to
skip initial number of events.

Add support for the new s390 PMU device cpum_cf_diag to extract the
counter set diagnostic data. This data is available as event raw data
and can be created with this command:
[root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf record -R -e '{rbd000,rbc000}' --
~/mytests/facultaet 2500

Create auxiliary trace data log files when invoked with option
--itrace=d as in:
[root@s35lp76 perf] perf report -i perf.data.aux1 --stdio --itrace=d
perf report creates several data files in the current directory named
aux.smp.## where ## is a 2 digit hex number with leading zeros
representing the CPU number this trace data was recorded from. The file
contents is binary and contains the CPU-Measurement Sampling Data Blocks
(SDBs).
The directory to save the auxiliary trace buffer can be changed using
the perf config file and command. Specify section 'auxtrace' keyword
'dumpdir' and assign it a valid directory name. If the directory does
not exist or has the wrong file type, the current directory is used.
[root@p23lp27 perf]# perf config auxtrace.dumpdir=/tmp
[root@p23lp27 perf]# perf config --user -l auxtrace.dumpdir=/tmp

The basic sampling entry and diagnostic sampling entry sizes can be

values (bsdes and dsdes in the trailer entry) are reserved and zero.
Older hardware use hard coded values based on the s390 machine type.

Additional notes about the underlying hardware and software
implementation, provided by Hendrik Brueckner (see Link: below).
=============================================================================
The CPU-Measurement Facility (CPU-MF) provides a set of functions to obtain
performance information on the mainframe. Basically, it was introduced
with System z10 years ago for the z/Architecture, that means, 64-bit.
For Linux, there are two facilities of interest, counter facility and sampling
facility. The counter facility provides hardware counters for instructions,
cycles, crypto-activities, and many more.
The sampling facility is a hardware sampler that when started will write
samples at a particular interval into a sampling buffer. At some point,
for example, if a sample block is full, it generates an interrupt to collect
samples (while the sampler continues to run).
Few years ago, I started to provide the a perf PMU to use the counter
and sampling facilities. Recently, the device driver was updated to also
"export" the sampling buffer into the AUX area. Thomas now completed the
related perf work to interpret and process these AUX data.
If people are more interested in the sampling facility, they can have a
look into:

http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg26fcd1cc32246f4c8852574ce0044734a
and to learn how-to use it for Linux on Z, have look at chapter 54,
"Using the CPU-measurement facilities" in the:
- Device Drivers, Features, and Commands, SC33-8411-34
