Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The majority of changes go into the cpufreq subsystem this time.

  To me, quite obviously, the biggest ticket item is the new "schedutil"
  governor.  Interestingly enough, it's the first new cpufreq governor
  since the beginning of the git era (except for some out-of-the-tree
  ones).

  There are two main differences between it and the existing governors.
  First, it uses the information provided by the scheduler directly for
  making its decisions, so it doesn't have to track anything by itself.
  Second, it can invoke drivers (supporting that feature) to adjust CPU
  performance right away without having to spawn work items to be
  executed in process context or similar.  Currently, the acpi-cpufreq
  driver is the only one supporting that mode of operation, but then it
  is used on a large number of systems.

  The "schedutil" governor as included here is very simple and mostly
  regarded as a foundation for future work on the integration of the
  scheduler with CPU power management (in fact, there is work in
  progress on top of it already).  Nevertheless it works and the
  preliminary results obtained with it are encouraging.

  There also is some consolidation of CPU frequency management for ARM
  platforms that can add their machine IDs the the new stub dt-platdev
  driver now and that will take care of creating the requisite platform
  device for cpufreq-dt, so it is not necessary to do that in platform
  code any more.  Several ARM platforms are switched over to using this
  generic mechanism.

  In addition to that, the intel_pstate driver is now going to respect
  CPU frequency limits set by the platform firmware (or a BMC) and
  provided via the ACPI _PPC object.

  The devfreq subsystem is getting a new "passive" governor for SoCs
  subsystems that will depend on somebody else to manage their voltage
  rails and its support for Samsung Exynos SoCs is consolidated.

  The rest is support for new hardware (Intel Broxton support in
  intel_idle for one example), bug fixes, optimizations and cleanups in
  a number of places.

  Specifics:

   - New cpufreq "schedutil" governor (making decisions based on CPU
     utilization information provided by the scheduler and capable of
     switching CPU frequencies right away if the underlying driver
     supports that) and support for fast frequency switching in the
     acpi-cpufreq driver (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Consolidation of CPU frequency management on ARM platforms allowing
     them to get rid of some platform-specific boilerplate code if they
     are going to use the cpufreq-dt driver (Viresh Kumar, Finley Xiao,
     Marc Gonzalez)

7d173913a6 perf evsel: Improve EPERM error handling in open_strerror()
We were showing a hardcoded default value for the kernel.perf_event_paranoid
sysctl, now that it became more paranoid (1 -> 2 [1]), this would need to be
updated, instead show the current value:

  [acme@jouet linux]$ perf record ls
  Error:
  You may not have permission to collect stats.

  Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid,
  which controls use of the performance events system by
  unprivileged users (without CAP_SYS_ADMIN).

  The current value is 2:

    -1: Allow use of (almost) all events by all users
  >= 0: Disallow raw tracepoint access by users without CAP_IOC_LOCK
  >= 1: Disallow CPU event access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  >= 2: Disallow kernel profiling by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  [acme@jouet linux]$

106b816cb4 tools lib traceevent: Do not reassign parg after collapse_tree()
At the end of process_filter(), collapse_tree() was changed to update
the parg parameter, but the reassignment after the call wasn't removed.

What happens is that the "current_op" gets modified and freed and parg
is assigned to the new allocated argument. But after the call to
collapse_tree(), parg is assigned again to the just freed "current_op",
and this causes the tool to crash.

The current_op variable must also be assigned to NULL in case of error,
otherwise it will cause it to be free()ed twice.

83302e79b1 perf script: Fix export of callchains with recursion in db-export
When an IP with an unresolved symbol occurs in the callchain more than
once (ie. recursion), then duplicate symbols can be created because
the callchain nodes are never updated after they are first created.

To fix this issue we call dso__find_symbol whenever we encounter a NULL
symbol, in case we already added a symbol at that IP since we started
traversing the callchain.

This change prevents duplicate symbols from being exported when duplicate
IPs are present in the callchain.

ae93a6c708 perf symbols: Add dso__insert_symbol function
The current method for inserting symbols is to use the symbols__insert()
function. However symbols__insert() does not update the dso symbol
cache.  This causes problems in the following scenario:

1. symbol not found at addr using dso__find_symbol

2. symbol inserted at addr using the existing symbols__insert function

3. symbol still not found at addr using dso__find_symbol() because cache isn't
   updated. This is undesired behavior.

The undesired behavior in (3) is addressed by creating a new function,
dso__insert_symbol() to both insert the symbol and update the symbol
cache if necessary.

If dso__insert_symbol() is used in (2) instead of symbols__insert(),
then the undesired behavior in (3) is avoided.

9c7b37cd63 perf symbols: Fix handling of zero-length symbols.
This change introduces a fix to symbols__find, so that it is able to
find symbols of length zero (where start == end).

The current code has the following problem:

- The current implementation of symbols__find is unable to find any symbols
  of length zero.

- The db-export framework explicitly creates zero length symbols at
  locations where no symbol currently exists.

The combination of the two above behaviors results in behavior similar
to the example below.

1. addr_location is created for a sample, but symbol is unable to be
   resolved.

2. db export creates an "unknown" symbol of length zero at that address
   and inserts it into the dso.

3. A new sample comes in at the same address, but symbol__find is unable
   to find the zero length symbol, so it is still unresolved.

4. db export sees the symbol is unresolved, and allocated a duplicate
   symbol, even though it already did this in step 2.

This behavior continues every time an address without symbol information
is seen, which causes a very large number of these symbols to be
allocated.

The effect of this fix can be observed by looking at the contents of an
exported database before/after the fix (generated with
scripts/python/export-to-postgresql.py)

Ex.
BEFORE THE CHANGE:

  example_db=# select count(*) from symbols;
   count
  --------
   900213
  (1 row)

  example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where symbols.name='unknown';
   count
  --------
   897355
  (1 row)

  example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where symbols.name!='unknown';
   count
  -------
    2858
  (1 row)

AFTER THE CHANGE:

  example_db=# select count(*) from symbols;
   count
  -------
   25217
  (1 row)

  example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where name='unknown';
   count
  -------
   22359
  (1 row)

  example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where name!='unknown';
   count
  -------
    2858

ee74701ed8 perf tests: Add test to check backward ring buffer
This test checks reading from backward ring buffer.

Test result:

  # ~/perf test 'ring buffer'
  45: Test backward reading from ring buffer                   : Ok

The test case is a while loop which calls prctl(PR_SET_NAME) multiple
times.  Each prctl should issue 2 events: one PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE, one
PERF_RECORD_COMM.

The first round creates a relative large ring buffer (256 pages). It can
afford all events. Read from it and check the count of each type of
events.

The second round creates a small ring buffer (1 page) and makes it
overwritable. Check the correctness of the buffer.

perf_evlist__mmap_read_backward() is introduced for reading backward

from the direction kernel writing to it, and since user need to fetch
most recent record from it, a perf_evlist__mmap_read_catchup() is
introduced to move the reading pointer to the end of the buffer.
