2015-06-23perf tools: Allow auxtrace data alignmentAdrian Hunter
Allow auxtrace data to be a multiple of something other than page size. That is needed for BTS where the buffer contains 24-byte records.

2015-05-05perf auxtrace: Add option to synthesize events for transactionsAdrian Hunter
Add AUX area tracing option 'x' to synthesize events for transactions. This will be used by Intel PT to synthesize an event record for each TSX start, commit or abort.

2015-05-04perf tools: Add AUX area tracing indexAdrian Hunter
Add an index of AUX area tracing events within a perf.data file. perf record uses a special user event PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND to enable sorting of events in chunks instead of having to sort all events altogether. AUX area tracing events contain data that can span back to the very beginning of the recording period. i.e. they do not obey the rules of PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND. By adding an index, AUX area tracing events can be found in advance and the PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND approach works as usual. The index is recorded with the auxtrace feature in the perf.data file. A session reads the index but does not process it. An AUX area decoder can queue all the AUX area data in advance using auxtrace_queues__process_index() or otherwise process the index in some custom manner.

2015-04-29perf auxtrace: Add a hashtable for cachingAdrian Hunter
Decoding AUX area data may involve walking object code. Rather than repetitively decoding the same instructions, a cache can be used to cache the results. This patch implements a fairly generic hashtable with a 32-bit key that could be used for other purposes as well.

2015-04-29perf auxtrace: Add a heap for sorting AUX area tracing queuesAdrian Hunter
In order to process AUX area tracing data in time order, the queue with data with the lowest timestamp must be processed first. Provide a heap to keep track of which queue that is. As with the queues, a decoder does not have to use the heap, but Intel BTS and Intel PT will use it.

2015-04-29perf auxtrace: Add helpers for queuing AUX area tracing dataAdrian Hunter
Provide functions to queue AUX area tracing data buffers for processing. A AUX area decoder need not use the queues, however Intel BTS and Intel PT will use them. There is one queue for each of the mmap buffers that were used for recording. Because those mmaps were associated with per-cpu or per-thread contexts, the data is time-ordered with respect to those contexts.

2015-04-29perf session: Add instruction tracing optionsAdrian Hunter
It is assumed that AUX area decoding will synthesize events for consumption by other tools. At this time, the main use of AUX area tracing will be to capture instruction trace (aka processor trace) data. The nature of instruction tracing suggests the initial inclusion of options for "instructions" and "branches" events, but more could be added as needed.

2015-04-29perf auxtrace: Add support for AUX area recordingAdrian Hunter
Add support for reading from the AUX area tracing mmap and synthesizing AUX area tracing events. This patch introduces an abstraction for recording AUX area data. Recording is initialized by auxtrace_record__init() which is a weak function to be implemented by the architecture to provide recording callbacks. Recording is mainly handled by auxtrace_mmap__read() and perf_event__synthesize_auxtrace() but there are callbacks for miscellaneous needs including validating and processing user options, populating private data in auxtrace_info_event, and freeing the structure when finished.

2015-04-29perf evlist: Add support for mmapping an AUX area bufferAdrian Hunter
This patch supports the addition to the kernel of AUX area buffers that can be mmapped separately from the perf-events buffer. The AUX buffer can be configured to contain hardware-produced trace information. The first implementation will support Intel BTS and Intel PT. One auxtrace buffer is mmapped per perf-events buffer. If the requested auxtrace buffer size is zero, which it will be until further support is added, then no auxtrace mmapping is attempted.
