Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v7.0-1-2026-02-21' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools

Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

- Introduce 'perf sched stats' tool with record/report/diff workflows
using schedstat counters

- Add a faster libdw based addr2line implementation and allow selecting
it or its alternatives via 'perf config addr2line.style='

- Data-type profiling fixes and improvements including the ability to
select fields using 'perf report''s -F/-fields, e.g.:

'perf report --fields overhead,type'

- Add 'perf test' regression tests for Data-type profiling with C and
Rust workloads

- Fix srcline printing with inlines in callchains, make sure this has
coverage in 'perf test'

- Fix printing of leaf IP in LBR callchains

- Fix display of metrics without sufficient permission in 'perf stat'

- Print all machines in 'perf kvm report -vvv', not just the host

- Switch from SHA-1 to BLAKE2s for build ID generation, remove SHA-1
code

- Fix 'perf report's histogram entry collapsing with '-F' option

- Use system's cacheline size instead of a hardcoded value in 'perf
report'

- Allow filtering conversion by time range in 'perf data'

- Cover conversion to CTF using 'perf data' in 'perf test'

- Address newer glibc const-correctness (-Werror=discarded-qualifiers)
issues

- Fixes and improvements for ARM's CoreSight support, simplify ARM SPE
event config in 'perf mem', update docs for 'perf c2c' including the
ARM events it can be used with

- Build support for generating metrics from arch specific python
script, add extra AMD, Intel, ARM64 metrics using it

- Add AMD Zen 6 events and metrics

- Add JSON file with OpenHW Risc-V CVA6 hardware counters

- Add 'perf kvm' stats live testing

- Add more 'perf stat' tests to 'perf test'

- Fix segfault in `perf lock contention -b/--use-bpf`

- Fix various 'perf test' cases for s390

- Build system cleanups, bump minimum shellcheck version to 0.7.2

- Support building the capstone based annotation routines as a plugin

- Allow passing extra Clang flags via EXTRA_BPF_FLAGS

perf disasm: Refactor arch__find and initialization of arch structs

Switch arch__find to using an ELF machine number rather than a
string.

Rather than an array of fixed size arch structs turn the init functions
into new functions indexed by the ELF machine they correspond to.

This allows data to be stored with a struct arch with the container_of
trick, so the priv variable can be removed.

Switch to using the thread to find the arch rather than the evsel as the
evsel only has limited notions of the running thread upon which
disassembly is performed.

Factor out the e_machine and e_flags into their own struct to make them
easier to pass around.

perf disasm: Don't include C files from the arch directory

Move the arch instructions.c files into appropriately named files in
annotate-arch in the util directory.

Don't #include to compile the code, switch to building the files and fix
up the #includes accordingly.

Move powerpc specific disasm code out of disasm.c and into
annotate-powerpc.c.

Declarations and static removed as appropriate for the code to compile
as separate compilation units.

The e_machine and e_flags set up is moved to the disasm.c architectures
array so that later patches can sort by them.
