Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Kernel side changes:

- Improved kbprobes robustness

- Intel PEBS support for PT hardware tracing

- Other Intel PT improvements: high order pages memory footprint
reduction and various related cleanups

- Misc cleanups

The perf tooling side has been very busy in this cycle, with over 300
commits. This is an incomplete high-level summary of the many
improvements done by over 30 developers:

- Lots of updates to the following tools:

'perf c2c'
'perf config'
'perf record'
'perf report'
'perf script'
'perf test'
'perf top'
'perf trace'

- Updates to libperf and libtraceevent, and a consolidation of the
proliferation of x86 instruction decoder libraries.

- Vendor event updates for Intel and PowerPC CPUs,

- Updates to hardware tracing tooling for ARM and Intel CPUs,

- ... and lots of other changes and cleanups - see the shortlog and
Git log for details"

perf trace:

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

- Use BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY + bpf_tail_call() for augmenting raw syscalls,
i.e. copy pointers passed to/from userspace. The use of a table per syscall
to tell the BPF program what to copy made the raw_syscalls:sys_enter/exit
programs a bit complex, the scratch space would have to be bigger to allow
for checking all args to see which ones were a pathname, so use a PROG_ARRAY
map instead, test it with syscalls that receive multiple pathnames at
different registers (rename, renameat, etc).

- Beautify various syscalls using this new infrastructure, and also add code
that looks for syscalls with BPF augmenters, such as "open", and then reuse
it with syscalls not yet having a specific augmenter, but that copies the
same argument with the same type, say "statfs" can initially reuse "open",
beautifier, as both have as its first arg a "const char *".

- Do not using fd->pathname beautifier when the 'close' syscall isn't enabled,
as we can't invalidate that mapping.

core:

Jiri Olsa:

- Introduce tools/perf/lib/, that eventually will move to tools/lib/perf/, to
allow other tools to use the abstractions and code perf uses to set up
the perf ring buffer and set up the many possible combinations in allowed
by the kernel, starting with 'struct perf_evsel' and 'struct perf_evlist'.

perf vendor events:

Michael Petlan:

- Add missing event description to power9 event definitions.

Also we don't need to include perf_event.h in
tools/perf/lib/include/perf/evsel.h, forward declaring 'struct
perf_event_attr' is enough. And this even fixes the build in some
systems where things are used somewhere down the include path from
perf_event.h without defining __always_inline.
