Introducing perf_output_skip function to be able to skip data within the
perf ring buffer.

When writing data into perf ring buffer we first reserve needed place in
ring buffer and then copy the actual data.

There's a possibility we won't be able to fill all the reserved size
with data, so we need a way to skip the remaining bytes.

This is going to be useful when storing the user stack dump, where we
might end up with less data than we originally requested.

Adding a generic way to use __output_copy function with specific copy
function via DEFINE_PERF_OUTPUT_COPY macro.

Using this to add new __output_copy_user function, that provides output
copy from user pointers. For x86 the copy_from_user_nmi function is used
and __copy_from_user_inatomic for the rest of the architectures.

This new function will be used in user stack dump on sample, coming in
next patches.

Introducing PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_USER sample type bit to trigger the dump of
user level registers on sample. Registers we want to dump are specified
by sample_regs_user bitmask.

Only user level registers are dumped at the moment. Meaning the register
values of the user space context as it was before the user entered the
kernel for whatever reason (syscall, irq, exception, or a PMI happening
in userspace).

The layout of the sample_regs_user bitmap is described in
asm/perf_regs.h for archs that support register dump.

This is going to be useful to bring Dwarf CFI based stack unwinding on
top of samples.

This brings a new API to help the selective dump of registers on event
sampling, and its implementation for x86 arch.

Added HAVE_PERF_REGS config option to determine if the architecture
provides perf registers ABI.

The information about desired registers will be passed in u64 mask.
It's up to the architecture to map the registers into the mask bits.

For the x86 arch implementation, both 32 and 64 bit registers bits are
defined within single enum to ensure 64 bit system can provide register
dump for compat task if needed in the future.

Now we have isolated all ELF-specific stuff, it's possible to build
without libelf. The output binary can do most of jobs but lacks (user
level) symbol information - kernel symbols are still accessable thanks
to the kallsyms.

To build perf without libelf (elfutils), give NO_LIBELF=1 to make.

For now, only 'perf probe' command is removed since it depends on
libelf/libdw heavily.

Currently only trace point events are supported in perf/python script,
the first 3 patches of this serie add the support for all types of
events. This script is just a simple sample to show how to gather the
basic information of the events and analyze them.

This script will create one object for each event sample and insert them
into a table in a database, then leverage the simple SQL commands to
sort/group them. User can modify or write their brand new functions
according to their specific requirment.

Here is the sample of how to use the script:

 $ perf record -a tree
 $ perf script -s process_event.py

There is 100 records in gen_events table

perf script: Replace "struct thread" with "struct addr_location" as a parameter for "process_event()"

Both perl and python script start processing events other than trace
points, and it's useful to pass the resolved symbol and the dso info to
the event handler in script for better analysis and statistics.

Struct thread is already a member of struct addr_location, using
addr_location will keep the thread info, while providing additional
symbol and dso info if exist, so that the script itself doesn't need to
bother to do the symbol resolving and dso searching work.

This patch just follows Robert Richter's idea and the commit 37a058ea
	"perf script: Add generic perl handler to process events"
to similarly add a python handler for general events other than tracepoints.

For non-tracepoint events, this patch will try to find a function named
"process_event" in the python script, and pass the event attribute,
perf_sample, raw_data in format of raw string. And the python script can
use "struct" module's unpack function to disasemble the needed info and process.

We can get all that is needed using just event_format, that is available
via evsel->tp_format now.

We already lookup the associated event_format when reading the perf.data
header, so that we can cache the tracepoint name in evsel->name, so do
it a little further and save the event_format itself, so that we can
avoid relookups in tools that need to access it.

Change the tools to take the most obvious advantage, when they were
using pevent_find_event directly. More work is needed for further
removing the need of a pointer to pevent, such as when asking for event
field values ("common_pid" and the other common fields and per
event_format fields).

This is something that was planned but only got actually done when
Andrey Wagin needed to do this lookup at perf_tool->sample() time, when
we don't have access to pevent (session->pevent) to use with
pevent_find_event().

We only have access to pevent after processing that event, so set the
tracepoint names there.

Right now this isn't a problem as we're deferring resolving the
tracepoint names to when we process samples, but in the next patches we
will be doing it in advance, to avoid relookups, so do it earlier, as
soon as we process the tracing data event.

to the function with the same name in the kernel.

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

Pull perf/core fixes and some late updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

 * Make clean brace expansion fix for some shells, from Palmer Cox

 * Warn user just once per guest kernel when not finding kernel info,
   from David Ahern

 * perf test fix from Jiri Olsa

 * Fix error handling on event creation in perf top, from David Ahern

 * Fix check on perf_target__strnerror, from Namhyung Kim

 * Save the whole cmdline, from David Ahern

 * Prep work for the DWARF CFI post unwinder, so that it doesn't
   uses perf_session in lots of places, just evlist/evsel is enough.

Pull VFS fixes and cleanups from Al Viro.

Most of this is the series to remove sync_supers() and the
->write_supers VFS callback from Artem Bityutskiy.  One commit to do the
actual removal work, a whole series of commits to fix up stale comments
etc all over the tree.

There's also a regression fix for an incorrect use of mnt_drop_write()
in do_dentry_open().
