984763cb90 perf, x86: Report error code that returned from x86_pmu.hw_config()
If x86_pmu.hw_config() fails a fixed error code (-EOPNOTSUPP) is
returned even if a different error was reported. This patch fixes
this.

1d199b1ad6 perf: Fix unexported generic perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs
perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs() is exported for the overriden x86
version, but not for the generic weak version.

As a general rule, weak functions should not have their symbol
exported in the same file they are defined.

So let's export it on trace_event_perf.c as it is used by trace
events only.

This fixes:

	ERROR: ".perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs" [fs/xfs/xfs.ko] undefined!
	ERROR: ".perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs" [arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/spufs.ko] undefined!

-v2: And also only build it if trace events are enabled.
-v3: Fix changelog mistake

e449526282 perf, x86: Enable not tagged retired instruction counting on P4s
This should turn on instruction counting on P4s, which was missing in
the first version of the new PMU driver.

It's inaccurate for now, we still need dependant event to tag mops
before we can count them precisely. The result is that the number of
instruction may be lifted up.

8576e19716 x86, perf: Unmask LVTPC only if we have APIC supported
Ingo reported:

 |
 | There's a build failure on -tip with the P4 driver, on UP 32-bit, if
 | PERF_EVENTS is enabled but UP_APIC is disabled:
 |
 | arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `p4_pmu_handle_irq':
 | perf_event.c:(.text+0xa756): undefined reference to `apic'
 | perf_event.c:(.text+0xa76e): undefined reference to `apic'
 |

So we have to unmask LVTPC only if we're configured to have one.

a072738e04 perf, x86: Implement initial P4 PMU driver
The netburst PMU is way different from the "architectural
perfomance monitoring" specification that current CPUs use.
P4 uses a tuple of ESCR+CCCR+COUNTER MSR registers to handle
perfomance monitoring events.

A few implementational details:

1) We need a separate x86_pmu::hw_config helper in struct
   x86_pmu since register bit-fields are quite different from P6,
   Core and later cpu series.

2) For the same reason is a x86_pmu::schedule_events helper
   introduced.

3) hw_perf_event::config consists of packed ESCR+CCCR values.
   It's allowed since in reality both registers only use a half
   of their size. Of course before making a real write into a
   particular MSR we need to unpack the value and extend it to
   a proper size.

4) The tuple of packed ESCR+CCCR in hw_perf_event::config
   doesn't describe the memory address of ESCR MSR register
   so that we need to keep a mapping between these tuples
   used and available ESCR (various P4 events may use same
   ESCRs but not simultaneously), for this sake every active
   event has a per-cpu map of hw_perf_event::idx <--> ESCR
   addresses.

5) Since hw_perf_event::idx is an offset to counter/control register
   we need to lift X86_PMC_MAX_GENERIC up, otherwise kernel
   strips it down to 8 registers and event armed may never be turned
   off (ie the bit in active_mask is set but the loop never reaches
   this index to check), thanks to Peter Zijlstra

Restrictions:

 - No cascaded counters support (do we ever need them?)
 - No dependent events support (so PERF_COUNT_HW_INSTRUCTIONS
   doesn't work for now)
 - There are events with same counters which can't work simultaneously
   (need to use intersected ones due to broken counter 1)
 - No PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_ events yet

Todo:

 - Implement dependent events
 - Need proper hashing for event opcodes (no linear search, good for
   debugging stage but not in real loads)
 - Some events counted during a clock cycle -- need to set threshold
   for them and count every clock cycle just to get summary statistics
   (ie to behave the same way as other PMUs do)
 - Need to swicth to use event_constraints
 - To support RAW events we need to encode a global list of P4 events
   into p4_templates
 - Cache events need to be added

Event support status matrix:

 Event			status
 -----------------------------
 cycles			works
 cache-references	works
 cache-misses		works
 branch-misses		works
 bus-cycles		partially (does not work on 64bit cpu with HT enabled)
 instruction		doesnt work (needs dependent event [mop tagging])
 branches		doesnt work

45e16a6834 perf, x86: Fix hw_perf_enable() event assignment
What happens is that we schedule badly like:

<...>-1987  [019]   280.252808: x86_pmu_start: event-46/1300c0: idx: 0
<...>-1987  [019]   280.252811: x86_pmu_start: event-47/1300c0: idx: 1

<...>-1987  [019]   280.252814: x86_pmu_start: event-50/1300c0: idx: 32
<...>-1987  [019]   280.252825: x86_pmu_stop: event-46/1300c0: idx: 0

<...>-1987  [019]   280.252829: x86_pmu_stop: event-50/1300c0: idx: 32
<...>-1987  [019]   280.252834: x86_pmu_start: event-47/1300c0: idx: 1
<...>-1987  [019]   280.252834: x86_pmu_start: event-48/1300c0: idx: 2
<...>-1987  [019]   280.252835: x86_pmu_start: event-49/1300c0: idx: 3
<...>-1987  [019]   280.252836: x86_pmu_start: event-50/1300c0: idx: 32
<...>-1987  [019]   280.252837: x86_pmu_start: event-51/1300c0: idx: 32 *FAIL*

This happens because we only iterate the n_running events in the first
pass, and reset their index to -1 if they don't match to force a
re-assignment.

Now, in our RR example, n_running == 0 because we fully unscheduled, so
event-50 will retain its idx==32, even though in scheduling it will have
gotten idx=0, and we don't trigger the re-assign path.

The easiest way to fix this is the below patch, which simply validates
the full assignment in the second pass.

5331d7b846 perf: Introduce new perf_fetch_caller_regs() for hot regs snapshot
Events that trigger overflows by interrupting a context can
use get_irq_regs() or task_pt_regs() to retrieve the state
when the event triggered. But this is not the case for some
other class of events like trace events as tracepoints are
executed in the same context than the code that triggered
the event.

It means we need a different api to capture the regs there,
namely we need a hot snapshot to get the most important
informations for perf: the instruction pointer to get the
event origin, the frame pointer for the callchain, the code
segment for user_mode() tests (we always use __KERNEL_CS as
trace events always occur from the kernel) and the eflags
for further purposes.

v2: rename perf_save_regs to perf_fetch_caller_regs as per
Masami's suggestion.

ef21f683a0 perf, x86: use LBR for PEBS IP+1 fixup
Use the LBR to fix up the PEBS IP+1 issue.

As said, PEBS reports the next instruction, here we use the LBR to find
the last branch and from that construct the actual IP. If the IP matches
the LBR-TO, we use LBR-FROM, otherwise we use the LBR-TO address as the
beginning of the last basic block and decode forward.

Once we find a match to the current IP, we use the previous location.

This patch introduces a new ABI element: PERF_RECORD_MISC_EXACT, which
conveys that the reported IP (PERF_SAMPLE_IP) is the exact instruction
that caused the event (barring CPU errata).

The fixup can fail due to various reasons:

 1) LBR contains invalid data (quite possible)
 2) part of the basic block got paged out
 3) the reported IP isn't part of the basic block (see 1)

ca037701a0 perf, x86: Add PEBS infrastructure
This patch implements support for Intel Precise Event Based Sampling,
which is an alternative counter mode in which the counter triggers a
hardware assist to collect information on events. The hardware assist
takes a trap like snapshot of a subset of the machine registers.

This data is written to the Intel Debug-Store, which can be programmed
with a data threshold at which to raise a PMI.

With the PEBS hardware assist being trap like, the reported IP is always
one instruction after the actual instruction that triggered the event.

This implements a simple PEBS model that always takes a single PEBS event
at a time. This is done so that the interaction with the rest of the
system is as expected (freq adjust, period randomization, lbr,
callchains, etc.).

It adds an ABI element: perf_event_attr::precise, which indicates that we
wish to use this (constrained, but precise) mode.

f3d46b2e6f perf, x86: Fix double enable calls
hw_perf_enable() would enable already enabled events.

This causes problems with code that assumes that ->enable/->disable calls
are balanced (like the LBR code does).

What happens is that events that were already running and left in place
would get enabled again.

Avoid this by only enabling new events that match their previous
assignment.

hw_perf_enable() would disable events that were not yet enabled.

This causes problems with code that assumes that ->enable/->disable calls

What happens is that we disable newly added counters that match their

Avoid this by only doing the first pass over the existing events.
