That is how the option summary describes it and so that we can free
--delay to replace --initial-delay and then be consistent with stat's
--delay equivalent option.

color the Ratio column using value_color_snprintf(), a new function that

At first glance, it looks like percent_color_snprintf() can be turned
into a non-variadic function simplifying things; however, 53805ec (perf

perf stat has a --delay option to delay measuring the workload.
This is useful to skip measuring the startup phase of the program, which
is often very different from the main workload.
The same is useful for perf record when sampling.
--no-delay was already taken, so add a --initial-delay
to perf record too.
-D was already taken for record, so there is only a long option.
v2: Don't disable group members (Namhyung Kim)
v3: port to latest perf/core

Test one of the main kernel Makefile targets to generate a perf sources
tarball suitable for build outside the full kernel sources.
This is to test that the tools/perf/MANIFEST file lists all the files
needed to be in such tarball, which sometimes gets broken when we move
files around, like when we made some files that were in tools/perf/
available to other tools/ codebases by moving it to tools/include/, etc.
Now everytime we use 'make -C tools/perf -f tests/make' this test will
be performed, helping detect such problems earlier in the devel cycle.

The tabbed indentation in non-commands statements could be sometimes
considered as follow up for the rule command in the Makefile.
This error is hard to find, so as a precaution replacing tabs with
spaces for all non-commands statements.

Currently installation tests work only over x86_64, adding arch check to
make it work over i386 as well.
NOTE looks like x86 is the only arch running tests, we need some
IS_(32/64) flag to make this generic.

When a tool uses perf_evlist__start_workload and the supplied workload
fails (e.g.: its binary wasn't found), perror was being used to print
the error reason.
This is undesirable, as the caller may be a GUI, when it wants to have
total control of the error reporting process.
So move to using sigaction(SA_SIGINFO) + siginfo_t->sa_value->sival_int
to communicate to the caller the errno and let it print it using the UI
of its choosing.

Unlike recent modern userspace API such as:
epoll_create1 (EPOLL_CLOEXEC), eventfd (EFD_CLOEXEC),
fanotify_init (FAN_CLOEXEC), inotify_init1 (IN_CLOEXEC),
signalfd (SFD_CLOEXEC), timerfd_create (TFD_CLOEXEC),
or the venerable general purpose open (O_CLOEXEC),
perf_event_open() syscall lack a flag to atomically set FD_CLOEXEC
(eg. close-on-exec) flag on file descriptor it returns to userspace.
The present patch adds a PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC flag to allow
perf_event_open() syscall to atomically set close-on-exec.
Having this flag will enable userspace to remove the file descriptor
from the list of file descriptors being inherited across exec,
without the need to call fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) and the
associated race condition between the current thread and another
thread calling fork(2) then execve(2).

This patch adds support for the Intel RAPL energy counter
PP1 (Power Plane 1).
On client processors, it usually corresponds to the
energy consumption of the builtin graphic card. That
is why the sysfs event is called energy-gpu.
New event:
- name: power/energy-gpu/
- code: event=0x4
- unit: 2^-32 Joules
On processors without graphics, this should count 0.
The patch only enables this event on client processors.

This patch fixes a problem with the initialization of the
struct perf_event active_entry field. It is defined inside
an anonymous union and was initialized in perf_event_alloc()
using INIT_LIST_HEAD(). However at that time, we do not know
whether the event is going to use active_entry or hlist_entry (SW).
Or at last, we don't want to make that determination there.
The problem is that hlist and list_head are not initialized
the same way. One is okay with NULL (from kzmalloc), the other
needs to pointers to point to self.
This patch resolves this problem by dropping the union.
This will avoid problems later on, if someone starts using
active_entry or hlist_entry without verifying that they
actually overlap. This also solves the initialization
problem.
