Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-5.5-20191011' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

perf trace:

  Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

  - Reuse the strace-like syscall_arg_fmt->scnprintf() beautification routines
    (convert integer arguments into strings, like open flags, etc) in tracepoint
    arguments.

    For now the type based scnprintf routines (pid_t, umode_t, etc) and the
    ones based in well known arg name based ("fd", etc) gets associated with
    tracepoint args of that type.

    A tracepoint only arg, "msr", for the msr:{write,read}_msr gets added as
    an initial step.

  - Introduce syscall_arg_fmt->strtoul() methods to be the reverse operation
    of ->scnprintf(), i.e. to go from a string to an integer.

  - Implement --filter, just like in 'perf record', that affects the tracepoint
    events specied thus far in the command line, use the ->strtoul() methods
    to allow strings in tables associated with beautifiers to the integers
    the in-kernel tracepoint (eBPF later) filters expect, e.g.:

     # perf trace --max-events 1 -e sched:*ipi --filter="cpu==1 || cpu==2"
      0.000 as/24630 sched:sched_wake_idle_without_ipi(cpu: 1)

  - Default to not using libtraceevent and its plugins for beautifying
    tracepoint arguments, since now we're reusing the strace-like beatufiers.
    Use --libtraceevent_print (using just --libtrace is unambiguous and can
    be used as a short hand) to go back to those beautifiers.

    This will help in the transition, as can be seen in some of the sched tracepoints
    that still need some work in the libbeauty based mode:

  - Make -v (verbose) mode be honoured for .perfconfig based trace.add_events,
    to help in diagnosing problems with building eBPF events (-e source.c).

  - When using eBPF syscall payload augmentation do not show strace-like
    syscalls when all the user specified was some tracepoint event, bringing
    the behaviour in line with that of when not using eBPF augmentation.

Intel PT:

  exported-sql-viewer GUI:

  Adrian Hunter:

  - Add LookupModel, HBoxLayout, VBoxLayout, global time range calculations
    so as to add a time chart by CPU.

perf script:

  Andi Kleen:

  - Allow --time (to specify a time span of interest) with --reltime

perf diff:

  Jin Yao:

  - Report noise for cycles diff, i.e. a histogram + stddev.
    (timestamps relative to start).

perf annotate:

  Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

  - Initialize env->cpuid when running in live mode (perf top), as it
    is used in some of the per arch annotation init routines.

samples bpf:

  Björn Töpel:

  - Fixup fallout of using tools/perf/perf-sys. from outside tools/perf.

Core:

  Ian Rogers:

  - Avoid 'sample_reg_masks' being const + weak, as this breaks with some
    compilers that constant-propagate from the weak symbol.

libperf:

  - First part of moving the perf_mmap class from tools/perf to libperf.

  - Propagate CFLAGS to libperf from the tools/perf Makefile.

Vendor events:

  John Garry:

  - Add entry in MAINTAINERS with reviewers for the for perf tool arm64
    pmu-events files.
