perf tools: Set the maximum allowed stack from
/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack (2016-04-27 10:29:07 -0300)

perf/core improvements and fixes:

- perf trace --pf maj/min/all works with --call-graph: (Arnaldo Carvalho de
Melo)
Tracing write syscalls and major page faults with callchains while starting
firefox, limiting the stack to 5 frames:

This automagically selects "--call-graph dwarf", use "--call-graph fp" on
systems
where -fno-omit-frame-pointer was used to built the components of interest, to
incur in less overhead, or tune "--call-graph dwarf" appropriately, see 'perf
record --help'.
- Allow /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack, that defaults to the old hard
coded value
of PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH (127), useful for huge callstacks for things like
Groovy, Ruby, etc,
and also to reduce overhead by limiting it to a smaller value, upcoming work
will allow
this to be done per-event (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Make 'perf trace --min-stack' be honoured by --pf and --event (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
- Make 'perf evlist -v' decode perf_event_attr->branch_sample_type (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
# perf record --call lbr usleep 1
# perf evlist -v
cycles:ppp: ... sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CALLCHAIN|PERIOD|BRANCH_STACK, ...
branch_sample_type: USER|CALL_STACK|NO_FLAGS|NO_CYCLES
#
- Clear dummy entry accumulated period, fixing such 'perf top/report' output
as: (Kan Liang)
4769.98% 0.01% 0.00% 0.01% tchain_edit [kernel] [k]
update_fast_timekeeper
- System calls with pid_t arguments gets them augmented with the COMM event
more thoroughly:
# trace -e perf_event_open perf stat -e cycles -p 15608
6.876 ( 0.014 ms): perf_event_open(attr_uptr: 0x2ae20d8, pid: 15608
(hexchat), cpu: -1, group_fd: -1, flags: FD_CLOEXEC) = 3
6.882 ( 0.005 ms): perf_event_open(attr_uptr: 0x2ae20d8, pid: 15639 (gmain),
cpu: -1, group_fd: -1, flags: FD_CLOEXEC) = 4
6.889 ( 0.005 ms): perf_event_open(attr_uptr: 0x2ae20d8, pid: 15640 (gdbus),
