<content type='text'>
When set option with macros ETM_OPT_CTXTID and ETM_OPT_TS, it wrongly
takes these two values (14 and 28 prespectively) as bit masks, but
actually both are the offset for bits.  But this doesn't lead to
further failure due to the AND logic operation will be always true for
ETM_OPT_CTXTID / ETM_OPT_TS.

This patch defines new independent macros (rather than using the
"config" bits) for requesting the "contextid" and "timestamp" for
cs_etm_set_option().

In some versions of alpine Linux the perf build is broken since commit
1d509f2a6ebca1ae ("x86/insn: Support big endian cross-compiles"):

  In file included from /usr/include/linux/byteorder/little_endian.h:13,
                   from /usr/include/asm/byteorder.h:5,
                   from arch/x86/util/../../../../arch/x86/include/asm/insn.h:10,
                   from arch/x86/util/archinsn.c:2:
  /usr/include/linux/swab.h:161:8: error: unknown type name '__always_inline'
   static __always_inline __u16 __swab16p(const __u16 *p)

So move the inclusion of arch/x86/include/asm/insn.h to later in the
places where linux/stddef.h (that conditionally defines
__always_inline) to workaround this problem on Alpine Linux 3.9 to 3.11,
3.12 onwards works.

<title>perf test: Support the ins_lat check in the X86 specific test</title>

The ins_lat of PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT stands for the instruction
latency, which is only available for X86. Add a X86 specific test for
the ins_lat and PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT type.

The test__x86_sample_parsing() uses the same way as the
test__sample_parsing() to verify a sample type. Since the ins_lat and
PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT are the only X86 specific sample type for now,
the test__x86_sample_parsing() only verify the PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT
type. Other sample types are still verified in the generic test.

  $ perf test 77 -v
  77: x86 Sample parsing                                              :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 102370
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----
  x86 Sample parsing: Ok

<title>tools headers: Update syscall.tbl files to support mount_setattr</title>

<content type='text'>
To pick the changes from:

  9caccd41541a6f7d ("fs: introduce MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP")

This adds this new syscall to the tables used by tools such as 'perf
trace', so that one can specify it by name and have it filtered, etc.

Addressing these perf build warnings:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/perf/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl'

This patch fixes Wformat-overflow warnings. Add helper function to
convert NULL to "unknown".

Retain the PIP packet payload as is, instead of just the CR3, because it
contains also the VMX NR flag which is needed to track VM-Entry.

In preparation to support Intel PT decoding of virtual machine traces, add
vmlaunch and vmresume as branch instructions.

Note, sample flags will show "VMentry" even if the VM-Entry fails.

<title>perf tools: Support arch specific PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT processing</title>

<id>fbefe9c2f87fd392f809f7b78e6d54944800a148</id>
<content type='text'>
For X86, the var2_w field of PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT stands for the
instruction latency. Current perf forces the var2_w to the data-&gt;ins_lat
in the generic code. It works well for now because X86 is the only
architecture that supports the PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT, but it may
bring problems once other architectures support the sample type.  For
example, the var2_w may be used to capture something else on PowerPC.

Create two architecture specific functions to parse and synthesize the
weight related samples. Move the X86 specific codes to the X86 version
functions. Other architectures can implement their own functions later
separately.
