Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- cgroup improvements for 'perf stat', allowing for compact
specification of events and cgroups in the command line.
- Support per thread topdown metrics in 'perf stat'.
- Support sample-read topdown metric group in 'perf record'
- Show start of latency in addition to its start in 'perf sched
latency'.
- Add min, max to 'perf script' futex-contention output, in addition to
avg.
- Allow usage of 'perf_event_attr->exclusive' attribute via the new
':e' event modifier.
- Add 'snapshot' command to 'perf record --control', using it with
Intel PT.
- Support FIFO file names as alternative options to 'perf record
--control'.
- Introduce branch history "streams", to compare 'perf record' runs
with 'perf diff' based on branch records and report hot streams.
- Support PE executable symbol tables using libbfd, to profile, for
instance, wine binaries.
- Add filter support for option 'perf ftrace -F/--funcs'.
- Allow configuring the 'disassembler_style' 'perf annotate' knob via
'perf config'
- Update CascadelakeX and SkylakeX JSON vendor events files.
- Add support for parsing perchip/percore JSON vendor events.
- Add power9 hv_24x7 core level metric events.
- Add L2 prefetch, ITLB instruction fetch hits JSON events for AMD
zen1.
- Enable Family 19h users by matching Zen2 AMD vendor events.
- Use debuginfod in 'perf probe' when required debug files not found
locally.
- Display negative tid in non-sample events in 'perf script'.
- Make GTK2 support opt-in
- Add build test with GTK+
- Add missing -lzstd to the fast path feature detection
- Add scripts to auto generate 'mmap', 'mremap' string<->id tables for
use in 'perf trace'.
- Show python test script in verbose mode.
- Fix uncore metric expressions
- Msan uninitialized use fixes.
- Use condition variables in 'perf bench numa'
- Autodetect python3 binary in systems without python2.
- Support md5 build ids in addition to sha1.
- Add build id 'perf test' regression test.
- Fix printable strings in python3 scripts.
- Fix off by ones in 'perf trace' in arches using libaudit.
- Fix JSON event code for events referencing std arch events.
- Introduce 'perf test' shell script for Arm CoreSight testing.
- Add rdtsc() for Arm64 for used in the PERF_RECORD_TIME_CONV metadata
event and in 'perf test tsc'.
- 'perf c2c' improvements: Add "RMT Load Hit" metric, "Total Stores",
fixes and documentation update.
- Fix usage of reloc_sym in 'perf probe' when using both kallsyms and
debuginfo files.
- Do not print 'Metric Groups:' unnecessarily in 'perf list'
- Refcounting fixes in the event parsing code.
- Add expand cgroup event 'perf test' entry.
- Fix out of bounds CPU map access when handling armv8_pmu events in
'perf stat'.
- Add build-id injection 'perf bench' benchmark.
- Enter namespace when reading build-id in 'perf inject'.
- Do not load map/dso when injecting build-id speeding up the 'perf
inject' process.
- Add --buildid-all option to avoid processing all samples, just the
mmap metadata events.
- Add feature test to check if libbfd has buildid support
- Add 'perf test' entry for PE binary format support.
- Fix typos in power8 PMU vendor events JSON files.
- Hide libtraceevent non API functions.
