<title>perf tools: Correct SNOOPX field offset</title>

[ Upstream commit 39c0a53b114d0317e5c4e76b631f41d133af5cb0 ]

perf_event.h has macros that define the field offsets in the data_src
bitmask in perf records. The SNOOPX and REMOTE offsets were both 37.

These are distinct fields, and the bitfield layout in perf_mem_data_src
confirms that SNOOPX should be at offset 38.

Committer notes:

This was extracted from a larger patch that also contained kernel
changes.

Fixes: 52839e653b5629bd ("perf tools: Add support for printing new mem_info encodings")

<title>perf tools: Don't clone maps from parent when synthesizing forks</title>

<content type='text'>
When synthesizing FORK events, we are trying to create thread objects
for the already running tasks on the machine.

Normally, for a kernel FORK event, we want to clone the parent's maps
because that is what the kernel just did.

But when synthesizing, this should not be done.  If we do, we end up
with overlapping maps as we process the sythesized MMAP2 events that
get delivered shortly thereafter.

Use the FORK event misc flags in an internal way to signal this
situation, so we can elide the map clone when appropriate.

That do not imply any changes in the tooling side, the (ab)use of

witness here.

This cures the following warning during perf's build:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h' differs from latest version at 'include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h'

To get the changes in:

  6cbc304f2f36 ("perf/x86/intel: Fix unwind errors from PEBS entries (mk-II)")

That do not imply any changes in the tooling side, the (ab)use of
sample_type is entirely done in kernel space, nothing for userspace to
witness here.

<title>perf/core: Store context switch out type in PERF_RECORD_SWITCH[_CPU_WIDE]</title>

Store preempting context switch out event into Perf trace as a part of
PERF_RECORD_SWITCH[_CPU_WIDE] record.

Percentage of preempting and non-preempting context switches help
understanding the nature of workloads (CPU or IO bound) that are running
on a machine;

The event is treated as preemption one when task-&gt;state value of the
thread being switched out is TASK_RUNNING. Event type encoding is
implemented using PERF_RECORD_MISC_SWITCH_OUT_PREEMPT bit;
