More work is needed to support archiving symtabs for binaries
without a build-id, perhaps creating a perf.data UUID + adding
build-ids for the binaries copied into the cache and then have
this perf.data session UUID be a directory with symlinks to the
by now calculated build-id of the files inside it.

Or just do an extra pass and insert the calculated build-ids in
the perf.data header.

Patch 1da53e02 ("perf_events, x86: Improve x86 event scheduling")
lost us one of the fixed purpose counters and then ed8777fc
("perf_events, x86: Fix event constraint masks") broke it even
further.

Widen the fixed event mask to event+umask and specify the full config

We support event unthrottling in breakpoint events. It means
that if we have more than sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate/HZ,
perf will throttle, ignoring subsequent events until the next
tick.

So if ptrace exceeds this max rate, it will omit events, which
breaks the ptrace determinism that is supposed to report every
triggered breakpoints. This is likely to happen if we set
sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate to 1.

This patch removes support for unthrottling in breakpoint
events to break throttling and restore ptrace determinism.

We need to deal with time ordered events to build a correct
state machine of lock events. This is why we multiplex the lock
events buffers. But the ordering is done from the kernel, on
the tracing fast path, leading to high contention between cpus.

Without multiplexing, the events appears in a weak order.
If we have four events, each split per cpu, perf record will
read the events buffers in the following order:

[ CPU0 ev0, CPU0 ev1, CPU0 ev3, CPU0 ev4, CPU1 ev0, CPU1 ev0....]

To handle a post processing reordering, we could just read and sort
the whole in memory, but it just doesn't scale with high amounts
of events: lock events can fill huge amounts in few times.

Basically we need to sort in memory and find a "grace period"
point when we know that a given slice of previously sorted events
can be committed for post-processing, so that we can unload the
memory usage step by step and keep a scalable sorting list.

There is no strong rules about how to define such "grace period".
What does this patch is:

We define a FLUSH_PERIOD value that defines a grace period in
seconds.
We want to have a slice of events covering 2 * FLUSH_PERIOD in our
sorted list.
If FLUSH_PERIOD is big enough, it ensures every events that occured
in the first half of the timeslice have all been buffered and there
are none remaining and there won't be further to put inside this
first timeslice. Then once we reach the 2 * FLUSH_PERIOD
timeslice, we flush the first half to be gentle with the memory
(the second half can still get new events in the middle, so wait
another period to flush it)

FLUSH_PERIOD is defined to 5 seconds. Say the first event started on
time t0. We can safely assume that at the time we are processing
events of t0 + 10 seconds, ther won't be anymore events to read
from perf.data that occured between t0 and t0 + 5 seconds. Hence
we can safely flush the first half.

To point out funky bugs, we have a guardian that checks a new event
timestamp is not below the last event's timestamp flushed and that
displays a warning in this case.

I've forgot to add 'perf lock' line to command-list.txt,
so users of perf could not find perf lock when they type 'perf'.

Fixing command-list.txt requires document
(tools/perf/Documentation/perf-lock.txt).
But perf lock is too much "under construction" to write a
stable document, so this is something like pseudo document for now.

And I wrote description of perf lock at help section of
CONFIG_LOCK_STAT, this will navigate users of lock trace events.

Add __percpu sparse annotations to hw_breakpoint.

These annotations are to make sparse consider percpu variables to be
in a different address space and warn if accessed without going
through percpu accessors.  This patch doesn't affect normal builds.

In kernel/hw_breakpoint.c, per_cpu(nr_task_bp_pinned, cpu)'s will
trigger spurious noderef related warnings from sparse.  Changing it to
&per_cpu(nr_task_bp_pinned[0], cpu) will work around the problem but
deemed to ugly by the maintainer.  Leave it alone until better
solution can be found.

Even though we don't register the counters until the child is right about
to exec(), we're still going to get at least a few events while the
fork()'d child is still executing 'perf' and in particular we're going to
get the MMAP events.

We can't distinguish the ones in the newly executed process because the
PID will be the same.

One way to solve this would be to have a PERF_RECORD_EXEC event, and when
this is seen 'perf' can flush it's map cache.  We can't use
PERF_RECORD_COMM since that's generated by other things, not just exec().

Actually, thinking about it some more, using PERF_RECORD_COMM might be a
good enough approximation.

IBS selects an op (execution operation) for sampling by counting
either cycles or dispatched ops. Better statistical samples can be
produced by adding a software generated random offset to the periodic
op counter value with each sample.

This patch adds software randomization to the IBS periodic op
counter. The lower 12 bits of the 20 bit counter are
randomized. IbsOpCurCnt is initialized with a 12 bit random value.

There is a work around if the hw can not write to IbsOpCurCnt. Then
the lower 8 bits of the 16 bit IbsOpMaxCnt [15:0] value are randomized
in the range of -128 to +127 by adding/subtracting an offset to the
maximum count (IbsOpMaxCnt).

The linear feedback shift register (LFSR) algorithm is used for
pseudo-random number generation to have low impact to the memory
system.

This patch implements a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) for
pseudo-random number generation for IBS.

For IBS measurements it would be good to minimize memory traffic in
the interrupt handler since every access pollutes the data
caches. Computing a maximal period LFSR just needs shifts and ORs.

The LFSR method is good enough to randomize the ops at low
overhead. 16 pseudo-random bits are enough for the implementation and
it doesn't matter that the pattern repeats with a fairly short
cycle. It only needs to break up (hard) periodic sampling behavior.

The logic was designed by Paul Drongowski.

(ibs_op/dispatched_ops) will be only exposed if the feature is
available, also the default for the bit is set to count clock cycles.

In general, the userland can detect the availability of a feature by
checking for the corresponding file in oprofilefs. If it exists, the
feature also exists. This may lead to a dynamic file layout depending
on the cpu type with that the userland has to deal with. Current
opcontrol is compatible.

Standard AMD systems have the same number of nodes as there are
northbridge devices. However, there may kernel configurations
(especially for 32 bit) or system setups exist, where the node number
is different or it can not be detected properly. Thus the check is not
reliable and may fail though IBS setup was fine. For this reason it is
better to remove the check.

OProfile support for IBS is now for several versions in the
kernel. The feature is stable now and the code can be activated
permanently.

As a side effect IBS now works also on nosmp configs.

The commit

 1155de47 ring-buffer: Make it generally available

already made ring-buffer available without the TRACING option
enabled. This patch removes the TRACING dependency from oprofile.

Fixes also oprofile configuration on ia64.

The patch also applies to the 2.6.32-stable kernel.

and using the current cpu where needed.

This patch adds correct AMD NorthBridge event scheduling.

NB events are events measuring L3 cache, Hypertransport traffic. They are
identified by an event code >= 0xe0. They measure events on the
Northbride which is shared by all cores on a package. NB events are
counted on a shared set of counters. When a NB event is programmed in a
counter, the data actually comes from a shared counter. Thus, access to
those counters needs to be synchronized.

We implement the synchronization such that no two cores can be measuring
NB events using the same counters. Thus, we maintain a per-NB allocation
table. The available slot is propagated using the event_constraint
structure.

In certain situations, the kernel may need to stop and start the same
event rapidly. The current PMU callbacks do not distinguish between stop
and release (i.e., stop + free the resource). Thus, a counter may be
released, then it will be immediately re-acquired. Event scheduling will
again take place with no guarantee to assign the same counter. On some
processors, this may event yield to failure to assign the event back due
to competion between cores.

This patch is adding a new pair of callback to stop and restart a counter
without actually release the underlying counter resource. On stop, the
counter is stopped, its values saved and that's it. On start, the value
is reloaded and counter is restarted (on x86, actual restart is delayed
until perf_enable()).

DaveM reported that currently perf interprets the pgoff value reported by
the MMAP events as a byte range, but the kernel reports it as a page
offset.

Since its broken (and unusable) anyway, change the kernel behaviour (ABI)
to report bytes indeed, avoiding the need for userspace to deal with
PAGE_SIZE things.

Because symbol->end is not fixed up at symbol_filter time, only
after all symbols for a DSO are loaded, and that, for asm
symbols, may be bogus, causing segfaults when hits happen in
