Create new util/branch.c and util/branch.h to contain the common branch
functions. Such as:
branch_type_count(): Count the numbers of branch types
branch_type_name() : Return the name of branch type
branch_type_stat_display(): Display branch type statistics info
branch_type_str(): Construct the branch type string.
The branch type is saved in branch_flags.
Change log:
v8: Change PERF_BR_NONE to PERF_BR_UNKNOWN.
v7: Since the common branch type name is changed (e.g. JCC->COND),
this patch is performed the modification accordingly.
v6: Move that multiline conditional code inside {} brackets.
Move branch_type_stat_display() from builtin-report.c to
branch.c.
Move branch_type_str() from callchain.c to branch.c.
v5: It's a new patch in v5 patch series.

Instruction trace decoders such as Intel PT may have additional information
recorded in the trace. For example, Intel PT has power information and a
there is a new instruction 'ptwrite' that can write a value into a PTWRITE
trace packet.
Such information may be associated with an IP and so can be treated as a
sample (PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE). Custom data can be incorporated in the
sample as raw_data (PERF_SAMPLE_RAW).
However a means of identifying the raw data format is needed. That will
be done by synthesizing an attribute for it.
So add an attribute type for custom synthesized events. Different
synthesized events will be identified by the attribute 'config'.
Committer notes:
Start those PERF_TYPE_ after the PMU range, i.e. after (INT_MAX + 1U),
i.e. after perf_pmu_register() -> idr_alloc(end=0).

That is the case of _text on s390, and we have some functions that return an
address, using address zero to report problems, oops.
This would lead the symbol loading routines to not use "_text" as the reference
relocation symbol, or the first symbol for the kernel, but use instead
"_stext", that is at the same address on x86_64 and others, but not on s390:
[acme@localhost perf-4.11.0-rc6]$ head -15 /proc/kallsyms
0000000000000000 T _text
0000000000000418 t iplstart

00000000000112a0 T _ehead
0000000000100000 T _stext
[acme@localhost perf-4.11.0-rc6]$
Which in turn would make 'perf test vmlinux' to fail because it wouldn't find
the symbols before "_stext" in kallsyms.
Fix it by using the return value only for errors and storing the
address, when the symbol is successfully found, in a provided pointer
arg.

This patch decodes the 'partial' flag in AUX records and prints
a warning to the user, so that they don't have to guess why their
PT traces contain gaps (or missing altogether):
Warning:
AUX data had gaps in it 8 times out of 8!
Are you running a KVM guest in the background?
Trying to be even more helpful, we will detect if the user's kvm driver sets up
exclusive VMX root mode for the entire lifespan of the kvm process:
Reloading kvm_intel module with vmm_exclusive=0
will reduce the gaps to only guest's timeslices.
Note however, that you'll still have gaps in cpu-wide traces even with
vmm_exclusive=0, but the number of gaps will be below 100% (as opposed to the
above example).
Currently this is the only reason for partial records.

Change Intel PT and BTS to pass up the length and the instruction
bytes of the decoded or sampled instruction in the perf sample.
The decoder already knows this information, we just need to pass it
up. Since it is only a couple of movs it is not very expensive.
Handle instruction cache too. Make sure ilen is always initialized.
Used in the next patch.

Intel PT uses the time members from the perf_event_mmap_page to convert
between TSC and perf time.
Due to a lack of foresight when Intel PT was implemented, those time
members were recorded in the (implementation dependent) AUXTRACE_INFO
event, the structure of which is generally inaccessible outside of the
Intel PT decoder. However now the conversion between TSC and perf time
is needed when processing a jitdump file when Intel PT has been used for
tracing.
So add a user event to record the time members. 'perf record' will
synthesize the event if the information is available. And session
processing will put a copy of the event on the session so that tools
like 'perf inject' can easily access it.

When perf creates a new child to profile, the events are enabled on
exec(). And in this case, it doesn't synthesize any event for the
child since they'll be generated during exec(). But there's an window
between the enabling and the event generation.
It used to be overcome since samples are only in kernel (so we always
have the map) and the comm is overridden by a later COMM event.
However it won't work if events are processed and displayed before the
COMM event overrides like in 'perf script'. This leads to those early
samples (like native_write_msr_safe) not having a comm but pid (like
':15328').
So it needs to synthesize COMM event for the child explicitly before
enabling so that it can have a correct comm. But at this time, the
comm will be "perf" since it's not exec-ed yet.

This patch fixes this issue by adding per-thread timeout to force stop

This patch modifies the perf tool to handle the new RECORD type,
PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES.
The number of lost-sample events is stored in
.nr_events[PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES]. The exact number of samples
which the kernel dropped is stored in total_lost_samples.
When the percentage of dropped samples is greater than 5%, a warning
is printed.
Here are some examples:
Eg 1, Recording different frequently-occurring events is safe with the
patch. Only a very low drop rate is associated with such actions.
$ perf record -e '{cycles:p,instructions:p}' -c 20003 --no-time ~/tchain ~/tchain

In addition to using refcounts for the struct thread lifetime
management, we need to protect access to machine->threads from
concurrent access.
That happens in 'perf top', where a thread processes events, inserting
and deleting entries from that rb_tree while another thread decays
hist_entries, that end up dropping references and ultimately deleting
threads from the rb_tree and releasing its resources when no further
hist_entry (or other data structures, like in 'perf sched') references
it.
So the rule is the same for refcounts + protected trees in the kernel,
get the tree lock, find object, bump the refcount, drop the tree lock,
return, use object, drop the refcount if no more use of it is needed,
keep it if storing it in some other data structure, drop when releasing
that data structure.
I.e. pair "t = machine__find(new)_thread()" with a "thread__put(t)", and
"perf_event__preprocess_sample(&al)" with "addr_location__put(&al)".
The addr_location__put() one is because as we return references to
several data structures, we may end up adding more reference counting
for the other data structures and then we'll drop it at
addr_location__put() time.

Add support for the PERF_RECORD_AUX event type.
PERF_RECORD_AUX is a new kernel event that records when new data lands
in the AUX buffer. Currently it is assumed that AUX data follows the
same ring buffer conventions used by the perf events buffer, and
consequently the AUX event is not processed during recording.
It is processed during session processing so that the information in the
'flags' member is made available.
The format of PERF_RECORD_AUX is outlined in the linux/perf_events.h
header file. The 'flags' are also enumerated.
Intel PT and Intel BTS use the flag named PERF_AUX_FLAG_TRUNCATED to
determine if data has been lost because the buffer became full as perf
was not able to empty it fast enough.

Instruction tracing will typically have access to information about the
instruction being executed for a particular ip sample. Some of that
information will be available in the 'flags' member of struct
perf_sample.
With the addition of transactions events synthesis to Instruction
Tracing options, there is a need to be able easily to see the flags
because they show whether the ip is at the start, commit or abort of a
tranasaction.
Consequently add an option to display the flags.
The flags are "bcrosyiABEx" which stand for branch, call, return,
conditional, system, asynchronous, interrupt, transaction abort, trace
begin, trace end, and in transaction, respectively.
Example using Intel PT:
perf script -fip,time,event,sym,addr,flags
