__perf_output_begin() has an on-stack struct perf_sample_data in the
unlikely case it needs to generate a LOST record. However, every call
to perf_output_begin() must already have a perf_sample_data on-stack.

A limited nunmber of architectures support hugetlbfs sizes that do not
align with the page-tables (ARM64, Power, Sparc64). Add support for
this to the generic perf_get_page_size() implementation, and also
allow an architecture to override this implementation.

This latter is only needed when it uses non-page-table aligned huge
pages in its kernel map.

When studying code layout, it is useful to capture the page size of the
sampled code address.

Add a new sample type for code page size.
The new sample type requires collecting the ip. The code page size can
be calculated from the NMI-safe perf_get_page_size().

For large PEBS, it's very unlikely that the mapping is gone for the
earlier PEBS records. Enable the feature for the large PEBS. The worst
case is that page-size '0' is returned.

<title>perf/core: Add PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_PAGE_SIZE</title>

<content type='text'>
Current perf can report both virtual addresses and physical addresses,
but not the MMU page size. Without the MMU page size information of the
utilized page, users cannot decide whether to promote/demote large pages
to optimize memory usage.

Add a new sample type for the data MMU page size.

Current perf already has a facility to collect data virtual addresses.
A page walker is required to walk the pages tables and calculate the
MMU page size from a given virtual address.

On some platforms, e.g., X86, the page walker is invoked in an NMI
handler. So the page walker must be NMI-safe and low overhead. Besides,
the page walker should work for both user and kernel virtual address.
The existing generic page walker, e.g., walk_page_range_novma(), is a
little bit complex and doesn't guarantee the NMI-safe. The follow_page()
is only for user-virtual address.

Add a new function perf_get_page_size() to walk the page tables and
calculate the MMU page size. In the function:
- Interrupts have to be disabled to prevent any teardown of the page
  tables.
- For user space threads, the current-&gt;mm is used for the page walker.
  For kernel threads and the like, the current-&gt;mm is NULL. The init_mm
  is used for the page walker. The active_mm is not used here, because
  it can be NULL.
  Quote from Peter Zijlstra,
  "context_switch() can set prev-&gt;active_mm to NULL when it transfers it
   to @next. It does this before @current is updated. So an NMI that
   comes in between this active_mm swizzling and updating @current will
   see !active_mm."
- The MMU page size is calculated from the page table level.

The method should work for all architectures, but it has only been
verified on X86. Should there be some architectures, which support perf,
where the method doesn't work, it can be fixed later separately.
Reporting the wrong page size would not be fatal for the architecture.

Some under discussion features may impact the method in the future.
Quote from Dave Hansen,
  "There are lots of weird things folks are trying to do with the page
   tables, like Address Space Isolation.  For instance, if you get a
   perf NMI when running userspace, current-&gt;mm-&gt;pgd is *different* than
   the PGD that was in use when userspace was running. It's close enough
   today, but it might not stay that way."
If the case happens later, lots of consecutive page walk errors will
happen. The worst case is that lots of page-size '0' are returned, which
would not be fatal.
In the perf tool, a check is implemented to detect this case. Once it
happens, a kernel patch could be implemented accordingly then.

The pmu::sched_task() is a context switch callback. It passes the
cpuctx-&gt;task_ctx as a parameter to the lower code. To find the
cpuctx-&gt;task_ctx, the current code iterates a cpuctx list.
The same context will iterated in perf_event_context_sched_out() soon.
Share the cpuctx-&gt;task_ctx can avoid the unnecessary iteration of the
cpuctx list.

The pmu::sched_task() is also required for the optimization case for
equivalent contexts.

The task_ctx_sched_out() will eventually disable and reenable the PMU
when schedule out events. Add perf_pmu_disable() and perf_pmu_enable()
around task_ctx_sched_out() don't break anything.

Drop the cpuctx-&gt;ctx.lock for the pmu::sched_task(). The lock is for
per-CPU context, which is not necessary for the per-task context
schedule.

No one uses sched_cb_entry, perf_sched_cb_usages, sched_cb_list, and
perf_pmu_sched_task() any more.

Starts from Ice Lake, the TopDown metrics are directly available as
fixed counters and do not require generic counters. Also, the TopDown
metrics can be collected per thread. Extend the RDPMC usage to support
per-thread TopDown metrics.

The RDPMC index of the PERF_METRICS will be output if RDPMC users ask
for the RDPMC index of the metrics events.

To support per thread RDPMC TopDown, the metrics and slots counters have
to be saved/restored during the context switching.

The last_period and period_left are not used in the counting mode. Use
the fields for saved_metric and saved_slots.

Current perf assumes that events in a group are independent. Close an
event doesn't impact the value of the other events in the same group.
If the closed event is a member, after the event closure, other events
are still running like a group. If the closed event is a leader, other
events are running as singleton events.

Add PERF_EV_CAP_SIBLING to allow events to indicate they require being
part of a group, and when the leader dies they cannot exist
independently.
