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

Fixes:

- Support setting probes in versioned user space symbols, such as
pthread_create@@GLIBC_2.1, picking the default one, more work
needed to make it possible to set it on the other versions, as
the 'perf probe' syntax already uses @ for other purposes.
(Paul Clarke)

- Do not special case address zero as an error for routines that
return addresses (symbol lookup), instead use the return as the
success/error indication and pass a pointer to return the address,
fixing 'perf test vmlinux' (the one that compares address between
vmlinux and kallsyms) on s/390, where the '_text' address is equal
to zero (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Infrastructure changes:

- More header sanitization, moving stuff out of util.h into
more appropriate headers and objects and sometimes creating
new ones (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Refactor a duplicated code for obtaining config file name (Taeung Song)

container problem characterization. (Hari Bathini)

- allow sorting by symbol_size in 'perf report' and 'perf top'
(Charles Baylis)

- in perf stat, make system wide (-a) the default option if no target
was specified and one of following conditions is met:
- no workload specified (current behaviour)
- a workload is specified but all requested events are system wide
ones, like uncore ones. (Jiri Olsa)

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.12-20170419' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core cleanups from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

- Introduce new header files out of the hodge-podge that util/util.h
became, trying to disentangle the includes hell that all C projects
end up growing. This should help in build times, as changes to
seemingly unrelated files (util.h included tons of headers) won't
trigger a rebuild of most object files.

- Use equivalent facilities found in the kernel source code base
originated tools/include/ header files, such as __stringify(),
ARRAY_SIZE, that has extra checks (__must_be_array()), etc.

- For that get some more files from the kernel sources, like
include/linux/bug.h, some just with the bits needed at this time.

- Use the headers where facilities declared in them are used, such
as PRIxu(32,64) macros (inttypes.h), errno defines (errno.h), etc.

- Remove various leftovers from the initial code base we copied from
git.git: FLEX_ARRAY, etc.

Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"With over 300 commits it's been a busy cycle - with most of the work
concentrated on the tooling side (as it should).

The main kernel side enhancements were:

- Add per event callchain limit: Recently we introduced a sysctl to
tune the max-stack for all events for which callchains were
requested:

$ sysctl kernel.perf_event_max_stack
kernel.perf_event_max_stack = 127

Now this patch introduces a way to configure this per event, i.e.
this becomes possible:

$ perf record -e sched:*/max-stack=2/ -e block:*/max-stack=10/ -a

allowing finer tuning of how much buffer space callchains use.

This uses an u16 from the reserved space at the end, leaving
another u16 for future use.

There has been interest in even finer tuning, namely to control the
max stack for kernel and userspace callchains separately. Further
discussion is needed, we may for instance use the remaining u16 for
that and when it is present, assume that the sample_max_stack
introduced in this patch applies for the kernel, and the u16 left
is used for limiting the userspace callchain (Arnaldo Carvalho de
Melo)

- Optimize AUX event (hardware assisted side-band event) delivery
(Kan Liang)

- Rework Intel family name macro usage (this is partially x86 arch
work) (Dave Hansen)

- Refine and fix Intel LBR support (David Carrillo-Cisneros)

- Add support for Intel 'TopDown' events (Andi Kleen)

- Intel uncore PMU driver fixes and enhancements (Kan Liang)

- ... other misc changes.

Here's an incomplete list of the tooling enhancements (but there's
much more, see the shortlog and the git log for details):

- Support cross unwinding, i.e. collecting '--call-graph dwarf'
perf.data files in one machine and then doing analysis in another
machine of a different hardware architecture. This enables, for
instance, to do:

$ perf record -a --call-graph dwarf

on a x86-32 or aarch64 system and then do 'perf report' on it on a
x86_64 workstation (He Kuang)

- Allow reading from a backward ring buffer (one setup via
sys_perf_event_open() with perf_event_attr.write_backward = 1)
(Wang Nan)

- Finish merging initial SDT (Statically Defined Traces) support, see
cset comments for details about how it all works (Masami Hiramatsu)

- Support attaching eBPF programs to tracepoints (Wang Nan)

- Add demangling of symbols in programs written in the Rust language
(David Tolnay)

- Add support for tracepoints in the python binding, including an
example, that sets up and parses sched:sched_switch events,
tools/perf/python/tracepoint.py (Jiri Olsa)

- Introduce --stdio-color to set up the color output mode selection
in 'annotate' and 'report', allowing emit color escape sequences
when redirecting the output of these tools (Arnaldo Carvalho de
Melo)

- Add 'callindent' option to 'perf script -F', to indent the Intel PT
call stack, making this output more ftrace-like (Adrian Hunter,
Andi Kleen)

- Allow dumping the object files generated by llvm when processing
eBPF scriptlet events (Wang Nan)

- Add stackcollapse.py script to help generating flame graphs (Paolo
Bonzini)

- Add --ldlat option to 'perf mem' to specify load latency for loads
event (e.g. cpu/mem-loads/ ) (Jiri Olsa)

- Tooling support for Intel TopDown counters, recently added to the
kernel (Andi Kleen)"
