Add 'hello' as the initial feature.

This structure will allow us to build split-out feature checks in parallel and
thus speed up feature detection dramatically.

perf-record updates the header in the perf.data file at termination.
Without this update perf-report (and other processing built-ins) it
caused an infinite loop when perf report (or something like) called.

This is because the algorithm in __perf_session__process_events()
depends on the data_size which is read from file header.  Use file size
directly instead in this case to do the best-effort processing.

Fix to find the correct (as much as possible) line information for
listing probes. Without this fix, perf probe --list action will show
incorrect line information as below;

  probe:getname_flags  (on getname_flags@ksrc/linux-3/fs/namei.c)
  probe:getname_flags_1 (on getname:-89@x86/include/asm/current.h)
  probe:getname_flags_2 (on user_path_at_empty:-2054@x86/include/asm/current.h)

The minus line number is obviously wrong, and current.h is not related
to the probe point. Deeper investigation discovered that there were 2
issues related to this bug, and minor typos too.

The 1st issue is the rack of considering about nested inlined functions,
which causes the wrong (relative) line number.

The 2nd issue is that the dwarf line info is not correct at those
points. It points 14th line of current.h.

Since it seems that the line info includes somewhat unreliable
information, this fixes perf to try to find correct line information
from both of debuginfo and line info as below.

1) Probe address is the entry of a function instance

  In this case, the line is set as the function declared line.

2) Probe address is the entry of an expanded inline function block

  In this case, the line is set as the function call-site line.
  This means that the line number is relative from the entry line
  of caller function (which can be an inlined function if nested)

3) Probe address is inside a function instance or an expanded
   inline function block

  In this case, perf probe queries the line number from lineinfo
  and verify the function declared file is same as the file name
  queried from lineinfo.

  If the file name is different, it is a failure case. The probe
  address is shown as symbol+offset.

4) Probe address is not in the any function instance

  This is a failure case, the probe address is shown as
  symbol+offset.

With this fix, perf probe -l shows correct probe lines as below;

  probe:getname_flags  (on getname_flags@ksrc/linux-3/fs/namei.c)
  probe:getname_flags_1 (on getname:2@ksrc/linux-3/fs/namei.c)
  probe:getname_flags_2 (on user_path_at_empty:4@ksrc/linux-3/fs/namei.c)

Changes at v2:
 - Fix typos in the function comments. (Thanks to Namhyung Kim)
 - Use die_find_top_inlinefunc instead of die_find_inlinefunc_next.

In ubuntu systems the libaudit test was always failing due to the
newline in the printf call not being escaped, which somehow didn't
prevented the test from working as expected on other systems, such
as fedora18.

Fix it by removing the newline, as this is just a test, that program is
just a compile test.

    CHK libaudit

cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
config/Makefile:241: No libaudit.h found, disables 'trace' tool, please install audit-libs-devel or libaudit-dev

After this change the test works as expected in all systems tested and the

Add a generic qualifier for transaction events, as a new sample
type that returns a flag word. This is particularly useful
for qualifying aborts: to distinguish aborts which happen
due to asynchronous events (like conflicts caused by another
CPU) versus instructions that lead to an abort.

The tuning strategies are very different for those cases,
so it's important to distinguish them easily and early.

Since it's inconvenient and inflexible to filter for this
in the kernel we report all the events out and allow
some post processing in user space.

The flags are based on the Intel TSX events, but should be fairly
generic and mostly applicable to other HTM architectures too. In addition
to various flag words there's also reserved space to report an
program supplied abort code. For TSX this is used to distinguish specific
classes of aborts, like a lock busy abort when doing lock elision.

Flags:

Elision and generic transactions 		   (ELISION vs TRANSACTION)
(HLE vs RTM on TSX; IBM etc.  would likely only use TRANSACTION)
Aborts caused by current thread vs aborts caused by others (SYNC vs ASYNC)
Retryable transaction				   (RETRY)
Conflicts with other threads			   (CONFLICT)
Transaction write capacity overflow		   (CAPACITY WRITE)
Transaction read capacity overflow		   (CAPACITY READ)

Transactions implicitely aborted can also return an abort code.
This can be used to signal specific events to the profiler. A common
case is abort on lock busy in a RTM eliding library (code 0xff)
To handle this case we include the TSX abort code

Common example aborts in TSX would be:

- Data conflict with another thread on memory read.
                                      Flags: TRANSACTION|ASYNC|CONFLICT
- executing a WRMSR in a transaction. Flags: TRANSACTION|SYNC
- HLE transaction in user space is too large
                                      Flags: ELISION|SYNC|CAPACITY-WRITE

The only flag that is somewhat TSX specific is ELISION.

This adds the perf core glue needed for reporting the new flag word out.

v3: Move transaction to the end

Add support to perf stat to print the basic transactional execution statistics:
Total cycles, Cycles in Transaction, Cycles in aborted transsactions
using the in_tx and in_tx_checkpoint qualifiers.
Transaction Starts and Elision Starts, to compute the average transaction
length.

This is a reasonable overview over the success of the transactions.

Also support architectures that have a transaction aborted cycles
counter like POWER8. Since that is awkward to handle in the kernel
abstract handle both cases here.

Enable with a new --transaction / -T option.

This requires measuring these events in a group, since they depend on each
other.

This is implemented by using TM sysfs events exported by the kernel

While auditing the list_entry usage due to a trinity bug I found that
perf_pmu_migrate_context violates the rules for
perf_event::event_entry.

The problem is that perf_event::event_entry is a RCU list element, and
hence we must wait for a full RCU grace period before re-using the
element after deletion.

Therefore the usage in perf_pmu_migrate_context() which re-uses the
entry immediately is broken. For now introduce another list_head into
perf_event for this specific usage.

This doesn't actually fix the trinity report because that never goes
through this code.

While this code is fixable, the commit itself fails on several levels:

 - it should have been a separate helper function
 - why the heck does it do strchr() twice
 - it casts a const char * over into char *
 - sloppy style
 - it's not even a regression fix!

So lets revert it and re-try the patch in v3.13.

Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These fix one recent cpufreq regression, a few older bugs that may
  harm users and a kerneldoc typo.

  Specifics:

   1) After the recent locking changes in the cpufreq core it is
      possible to trigger BUG_ON(!policy) in lock_policy_rwsem_read() if
      cpufreq_get() is called before registering a cpufreq driver.  Fix
      from Viresh Kumar.

   2) If intel_pstate has been loaded already, it doesn't make sense to
      do anything in acpi_cpufreq_init() and moreover doing something in
      there in that case may be harmful, so make that function return
      immediately if another cpufreq driver is already present.  From
      Yinghai Lu.

   3) The ACPI IPMI driver sometimes attempts to acquire a mutex from
      interrupt context, which can be avoided by replacing that mutex
      with a spinlock.  From Lv Zheng.

   4) A NULL pointer may be dereferenced by the exynos5440 cpufreq
      driver if a memory allocation made by it fails.  Fix from Sachin
      Kamat.

   5) Hanjun Guo's commit fixes a typo in the kerneldoc comment
      documenting acpi_bus_unregister_driver()"

Ben Herrenschmidt found that commit 928bea96 ("PCI: Delay enabling
bridges until they're needed") breaks PCI in some powerpc environments.

The reason is that the PCIe port driver will call pci_enable_device() on
the bridge, so the device is enabled, but skips pci_set_master because
pcie_port_auto and no acpi on powerpc.

Because of that, pci_enable_bridge() later on (called as a result of the
child device driver doing pci_enable_device) will see the bridge as
already enabled and will not call pci_set_master() on it.

Fixed by add checking in pci_enable_bridge, and call pci_set_master
if driver skip that.

That will make the code more robot and wade off problem for missing
pci_set_master in drivers.

Pull s390 lockref enablement from Heiko Carstens:
 "Enabling the new lockless lockref variant on s390 would have been
  trivial until Tony Luck added a cpu_relax() call into the
  CMPXCHG_LOOP(), with commit d472d9d9 ("lockref: Relax in cmpxchg
  loop")

  As already mentioned cpu_relax() is very expensive on s390 since it
  yields() the current virtual cpu.  So we are talking of several
  thousand cycles.  Considering this enabling the lockless lockref
  variant would contradict the intention of the new semantics.  And also
  some quick measurements show performance regressions of 50% and more.

  Simply removing the cpu_relax() call again seems also not very
  desireable since Waiman Long reported that for some workloads the call
  improved performance by 5%."
