Add support to perf stat to print the basic transactional execution statistics:
Total cycles, Cycles in Transaction, Cycles in aborted transsactions
using the in_tx and in_tx_checkpoint qualifiers.
Transaction Starts and Elision Starts, to compute the average transaction
length.
This is a reasonable overview over the success of the transactions.
Also support architectures that have a transaction aborted cycles
counter like POWER8. Since that is awkward to handle in the kernel
abstract handle both cases here.
Enable with a new --transaction / -T option.
This requires measuring these events in a group, since they depend on each
other.
This is implemented by using TM sysfs events exported by the kernel

They are only used in pmu.c, so no need to make them public in pmu.h.

In tools/perf we use a convention where __ separates the struct name
from the function name for functions that operate on a struct instance.
Fix this usage by removing it from the struct names and fix also the
associated functions.

Make perf build for x86 once the UAPI disintegration patches for that arch
have been applied by adding the appropriate -I flags - in the right order -
and then converting some #includes that use ../.. notation to find main kernel
headerfiles to use <asm/foo.h> and <linux/foo.h> instead.
Note that -Iarch/foo/include/uapi is present _before_ -Iarch/foo/include.
This makes sure we get the userspace version of the pt_regs struct. Ideally,
we wouldn't have the latter -I flag at all, but unfortunately we want
asm/svm.h and asm/vmx.h in builtin-kvm.c and these aren't part of the UAPI -
at least not for x86. I wonder if the bits outside of the __KERNEL__ guards
*should* be transferred there.
I note also that perf seems to do its dependency handling manually by listing
all the header files it might want to use in LIB_H in the Makefile. Can this
be changed to use -MD?
Note that to do make this work, we need to export and UAPI disintegrate
linux/hw_breakpoint.h, which I think should've been exported previously so that
perf can access the bits. We have to do this in the same patch to maintain
bisectability.

With dynamic pmu allocation there are also dynamically assigned pmu ids.
These ids are used in event->attr.type to describe the pmu to be used
for that event. The information is available in sysfs, e.g:
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/breakpoint/type: 5
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/type: 4
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_fetch/type: 6
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_op/type: 7
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/software/type: 1
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/tracepoint/type: 2
These mappings are needed to know which samples belong to which pmu. If
a pmu is added dynamically like for ibs_fetch or ibs_op the type value
may vary.
Now, when decoding samples from perf.data this information in sysfs
might be no longer available or may have changed. We need to store it in
perf.data. Using the header for this. Now the header information created
with perf report contains an additional section looking like this:
# pmu mappings: ibs_op = 7, ibs_fetch = 6, cpu = 4, breakpoint = 5, tracepoint = 2, software = 1

Add support to specify alias term within the event description.
The definition of pmu event alias is located at:
${sysfs_mount}/bus/event_source/devices/${pmu}/events/
Each file in the 'events' directory defines a event alias. Its contents
are like:
config=1,config1=2
Using pmu event alias, an event can be now specified like:
uncore/CLOCKTICKS/ or uncore/event=CLOCKTICKS/

Adding pmu object which provides interface to pmu's sysfs
event format definition located at:
${sysfs_mount}/bus/event_source/devices/${pmu}/format
Following interface is exported:
struct perf_pmu* perf_pmu__find(char *name);
- this function returns pmu object, which is then
passed as a handle to other interface functions
int perf_pmu__config(struct perf_pmu *pmu, struct perf_event_attr *attr,
struct list_head *head_terms);
- this function configures perf_event_attr struct based
on pmu's format definitions and config terms data,
containined in head_terms list.
Parser generator is used to retrive the pmu's format definition.
The generated parser is part of the patch. Added makefile rule
'pmu-parser' to generate the parser code out of the bison/flex
sources.
Added builtin test 'Test perf pmu format parsing', which could
be run like:
perf test pmu
