6c4d0b41ce perf tools: Add AVX-512 instructions to the new instructions test
Previous patches added support for Intel's AVX-512 instructions to the
kernel and perf tools instruction decoders.

AVX-512 instructions are documented in Intel Architecture Instruction
Set Extensions Programming Reference (February 2016).

Add a representative set of instructions to perf's "new instructions"
test. e.g.

	perf test "new instructions"

Or to view a particular instruction:

	perf test -v "new instructions" 2>&1 | grep vbroadcasti64x4

c8b5f2c96d tools: Introduce str_error_r()
The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that
returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else.

But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the
function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided
buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that
instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine
Linux, where musl libc is used.

So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU
interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that
users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is
returned.

a23f96ee4d perf tools: Use 64-bit shifts with (TSC) time conversion
Commit b9511cd761 ("perf/x86: Fix time_shift in perf_event_mmap_page")
altered the time conversion algorithms documented in the perf_event.h
header file, to use 64-bit shifts.  That was done to make the code more
future-proof (i.e. some time in the future a 32-bit shift could be
allowed).  Reflect those changes in perf tools.

4f4ba0e6af perf tests: No need to set attr.sample_freq in the perf time to TSC test
We were asking for a 4kHz sample_freq, making the test fail needlessly
when the system reduced /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
below that.

In this test we only look at the PERF_SAMPLE_TIME fields in PERF_RECORD_
meta events, no need to set sample_freq.

Thanks to Namhyung for suggesting that max_sample_rate could be the
reason for the test failure, seeing the 'perf test -vv' output I sent.

Before:

  # echo 1000 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
  # perf test TSC
  45: Test converting perf time to TSC   : FAILED!

After:

  # perf test TSC
  45: Test converting perf time to TSC   : Ok

721a1f53df perf tests: Pass the subtest index to each test routine
Some tests have sub-tests we want to run, so allow passing this.

Wang tried to avoid having to touch all tests, but then, having the
test.func in an anonymous union makes the build fail on older compilers,
like the one in RHEL6, where:

  test a = {
	.func = foo,
  };

fails.

To fix it leave the func pointer in the main structure and pass the subtest
index to all tests, end result function is the same, but we have just one
function pointer, not two, with and without the subtest index as an argument.

035827e9f2 perf tests: Add Intel CQM test
Peter reports that it's possible to trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE() in the
Intel CQM code by combining a hardware event and an Intel CQM
(software) event into a group. Unfortunately, the perf tools are not
able to create this bundle and we need to manually construct a test
case.

For posterity, record Peter's proof of concept test case in tools/perf
so that it presents a model for how we can perform architecture
specific tests, or "arch tests", in perf in the future.

The particular issue triggered in the test case is that when the
counter for the hardware event overflows and triggers a PMI we'll read
both the hardware event and the software event counters.
Unfortunately, for CQM that involves performing an IPI to read the CQM
event counters on all sockets, which in NMI context triggers the
WARN_ON_ONCE().

31b6753f95 perf tests: Add arch tests
Tests that only make sense for some architectures currently live in
the same place as the generic tests. Move out the x86-specific tests
into tools/perf/arch/x86/tests and define an 'arch_tests' array, which

The main idea is to encourage developers to add arch tests to build
out perf's test coverage, without dumping everything in
tools/perf/tests.

5e8c0fb6a9 perf build: Add arch x86 objects building
Move the x86 arch objects building under build framework to be included
in the libperf build object.

Adding also arch/$(ARCH)/Build files for the rest of the archs. The
reason for this is that in arch/Build we now do:

  +libperf-y += $(ARCH)/

which would make the build to fail on other architectures, because the
build framework requires 'Build' file in nested directories and this
patch adds it only for x86.

6392b4ebdc perf x86: Fix perf to use non-executable stack, again
arch/x86/tests/regs_load.S is missing the linker note about the stack
requirements, therefore making the linker fall back to an executable
stack. As this object gets linked against the final perf binary, it'll
needlessly end up with an executable stack. Fix this by adding the
appropriate linker note.

Also add a global linker flag to prevent future regressions, as
suggested by Jiri. This way perf won't get an executable stack even if
we fail to add the .GNU-stack linker note to future assembler files.
Though, doing so might create regressions the other way around, when
(statically) linking against libraries needing an executable stack.
But, apparently, regressing in that direction is wanted as it is an
indicator of poor code quality -- or just missing linker notes.

93d5731dcb perf tools: Allocate thread map_groups's dynamically
Moving towards sharing map groups within a process threads.

Because of this we need the map groups to be dynamically allocated. No
other functional change is intended in here.

Based on a patch by Jiri Olsa, but this time _just_ making the
conversion from statically allocating thread->mg to turning it into a
pointer and instead of initializing it at thread's constructor,
introduce a constructor/destructor for the map_groups class and
call at thread creation time.

Later we will introduce the get/put methods when we move to sharing
those map_groups, when the get/put refcounting semantics will be needed.
