It is not quite obvious at first sight what TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE
does: does it define an event as well beyond defining a template?

To clarify this, rename it to DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS, which follows
the various 'DECLARE_*()' idioms we already have in the kernel:

  DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS(class)

    DEFINE_EVENT(class, event1)
    DEFINE_EVENT(class, event2)
    DEFINE_EVENT(class, event3)

To complete this logic we should also rename TRACE_EVENT() to:

  DEFINE_SINGLE_EVENT(single_event)

... but in a more quiet moment of the kernel cycle.

Percpu symbols now occupy the same namespace as other global
symbols and as such short global symbols without subsystem
prefix tend to collide with local variables.  dr7 percpu
variable used by x86 was hit by this. Rename it to cpu_dr7.

The rename also makes it more consistent with its fellow
cpu_debugreg percpu variable.

Merge branch 'tip/perf/core' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-2.6-trace into perf/core

Converting some of the scheduler trace events to use the
TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE, DEFINE_EVENT and DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT helped to
save some space:

$ size kernel/sched.o-*
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  79299	   6776	   2520	  88595	  15a13	kernel/sched.o-notrace
 101941	  11896	   2584	 116421	  1c6c5	kernel/sched.o-templ
 104779	  11896	   2584	 119259	  1d1db	kernel/sched.o-trace

sched.o-notrace is without any tracepoints compiled
sched.o-templ is with this patch
sched.o-trace is the tracepoints before this patch

The trace events converted to DEFINE_EVENT:

sched_wakeup, sched_wakeup_new, sched_process_free, sched_process_exit,
and sched_stat_wait.

The trace events converted to DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT:

sched_stat_sleep and sched_stat_iowait.

Note, since the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE always uses a print, the
sched_stat_wait print format is defined in the template and this
template is used by sched_stat_sleep and sched_stat_iowait. But the
later two override the print format.

After creating the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE I started to look at other
trace points to see what duplication was made. I noticed that there
are several trace points where they are almost identical except for
the name and the output format. Since TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE was successful
in bringing down the size of trace events, I added a DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT.

DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT is used just like DEFINE_EVENT is. That is, the
DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT also uses a TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE, but it allows the
developer to overwrite the print format. If there are two or more
TRACE_EVENTS that are identical except for the name and print, then
they can be converted to use a TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE. Since the
TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE already does the print output, the first trace event
would have its print format held in the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE and
be defined with a DEFINE_EVENT. The rest will use the DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT
and override the print format.

Converting the sched trace points to both DEFINE_EVENT and
DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT. Five were converted to DEFINE_EVENT and two were
converted to DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT.

I was able to get the following:

$ size kernel/sched.o-*
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  79299	   6776	   2520	  88595	  15a13	kernel/sched.o-notrace
 101941	  11896	   2584	 116421	  1c6c5	kernel/sched.o-templ
 104779	  11896	   2584	 119259	  1d1db	kernel/sched.o-trace

sched.o-notrace is the scheduler compiled with no trace points.
sched.o-templ is with the use of DEFINE_EVENT and DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT
sched.o-trace is the current trace events.

There are some places in the kernel that define several tracepoints and
they are all identical besides the name. The code to enable, disable and
record is created for every trace point even if most of the code is
identical.

This patch adds TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE that lets the developer create
a template TRACE_EVENT and create trace points with DEFINE_EVENT, which
is based off of a given template. Each trace point used by this
will share most of the code, and bring down the size of the kernel
when there are several duplicate events.

Usage is:

TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE(name, proto, args, tstruct, assign, print);

Which would be the same as defining a normal TRACE_EVENT.

To create the trace events that the trace points will use:

DEFINE_EVENT(template, name, proto, args) is done. The template
is the name of the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE to use. The name is the
name of the trace point. The parameters proto and args must be the same
as the proto and args of the template. If they are not the same,
then a compile error will result. I tried hard removing this duplication
but the C preprocessor is not powerful enough (or my CPP magic
experience points is not at a high enough level) to not need them.

A lot of trace events are coming in with new XFS development. Most of
the trace points are identical except for the name. The following shows
the advantage of having TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE:

$ size fs/xfs/xfs.o.*
    text          data     bss     dec     hex filename
  452114          2788    3520  458422   6feb6 fs/xfs/xfs.o.old
  638482         38116    3744  680342   a6196 fs/xfs/xfs.o.template
  996954         38116    4480 1039550   fdcbe fs/xfs/xfs.o.trace

xfs.o.old is without any tracepoints.
xfs.o.template uses the new TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE.
xfs.o.trace uses the current TRACE_EVENT macros.

The validate_event() was failing on valid event combinations. The
function was assuming that if x86_schedule_event() returned 0, it
meant error. But x86_schedule_event() returns the counter index and
0 is a perfectly valid value. An error is returned if the function
returns a negative value.

Furthermore, validate_event() was also failing for event groups
because the event->pmu was not set until after
hw_perf_event_init().

And also express its configuration toggles via a struct.

Now all one has to do is to call symbol__init(NULL) if the
defaults are OK, or pass a struct symbol_conf pointer with the
desired configuration.

If a tool uses kernel_maps__find_symbol() to look at the kernel
and modules mappings for a symbol but didn't call symbol__init()
first, that will generate a one time warning too, alerting the
subcommand developer that symbol__init() must be called.

Currently, perf fails to compile on powerpc with this error:

     CC util/header.o
 In file included from util/../perf.h:17,
                  from util/header.c:9:
 util/../../../arch/powerpc/include/asm/unistd.h:360:27: error:
 linux/linkage.h: No such file or directory make: ***
 [util/header.o] Error 1

The reason is that we still have a #define __KERNEL__ in effect
at the point where <asm/unistd.h> gets included, which means we
get extra stuff that we don't need or want.

This fixes the problem by undefining __KERNEL__ once we have
included the file for which we need __KERNEL__ defined.

Add the breakpoint events support with this new sysnopsis:

  mem:addr[:access]

Where addr is a raw addr value in the kernel and access can be
either [r][w][x]

Example to profile tasklist_lock:

	$ grep tasklist_lock /proc/kallsyms
	ffffffff8189c000 D tasklist_lock

	$ perf record -e mem:0xffffffff8189c000:rw -a -f -c 1
	$ perf report

	# Samples: 62

	# Overhead          Command  Shared Object  Symbol
	# ........  ...............  .............  ......

	     1.61%         events/0  [kernel]       [k] _raw_read_unlock

Coming soon:

 - Support for symbols in the event definition.

 - Default period to 1 for breakpoint events because these are
   not high frequency events. The same thing is needed for trace
   events.

Add the remaining necessary bits to support breakpoints created
through perf syscall.

We don't use the software counter interface as:

- We don't need to check against recursion, this is already done
  in hardware breakpoints arch level.

- We already know the perf event we are dealing with when the
  event is to be committed.

Perf tools create perf events as disabled in the beginning.
Breakpoints are then considered like ptrace temporary
breakpoints, only meant to reserve a breakpoint slot until we
get all the necessary informations from the user.

In this case, we don't check the address that is breakpointed as
it is NULL in the ptrace case.

But perf tools don't have the same purpose, events are created
disabled to wait for all events to be created before enabling
all of them. We want to check the breakpoint parameters in this
case.

[ v2: moved it to latest -tip ]

It is quite possible to call update_event_times() on a context
that isn't actually running and thereby confuse the thing.

perf stat was reporting !100% scale values for software counters
(2e2af50b perf_events: Disable events when we detach them,
solved the worst of that, but there was still some left).

The thing that happens is that because we are not self-reaping
(we have a caring parent) there is a time between the last
schedule (out) and having do_exit() called which will detach the
events.

This period would be accounted as enabled,!running because the
event->state==INACTIVE, even though !event->ctx->is_active.

Similar issues could have been observed by calling read() on a
event while the attached task was not scheduled in.

Solve this by teaching update_event_times() about
ctx->is_active.

Move the update_event_times() call in __perf_event_exit_task()

It appeared we did call update_event_times() on exit, but we
failed to update the context time, which renders the former
moot.

Locking is a bit iffy, we call update_event_times under
ctx->mutex instead of ctx->lock - the next patch fixes this.

If we leave the event in STATE_INACTIVE, any read of the event
after the detach will increase the running count but not the
enabled count and cause funny scaling artefacts.
