perf record has a new option -W that enables weightened sampling.
Add sorting support in top/report for the average weight per sample and the
total weight sum. This allows to both compare relative cost per event
and the total cost over the measurement period.
Add the necessary glue to perf report, record and the library.
v2: Merge with new hist refactoring.
v3: Fix manpage. Remove value check.
Rename global_weight to weight and weight to local_weight.
v4: Readd sort keys to manpage
v5: Move weight to end
v6: Move weight to template
v7: Rename weight key.
Original patch from Andi modified by Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com>
to include ONLY the weight supporting code and apply to pristine 3.8.0-rc4.

This patch adds the --per-core option to perf stat.
This option is used to aggregate system-wide counts
on a per physical core basis. On processors with
hyperthreading, this means counts of all HT threads
running on a physical core are aggregated.
This mode is useful to find imblance between physical
cores running an uniform workload. Cores are identified
by socket: S0-C1, means physical core 1 on socket 0. Note
that cores are identified using their physical core id,
thus their numbering may not be continuous.
Per core aggregation can be combined with interval printing:
# perf stat -a --per-core -I 1000 -e cycles sleep 1000
# time core cpus counts events
1.000090030 S0-C0 1 4,765,747 cycles
1.000090030 S0-C1 1 5,580,647 cycles
1.000090030 S0-C2 1 221,181 cycles
1.000090030 S0-C3 1 266,092 cycles

This patch adds per-processor socket count aggregation for system-wide
mode measurements. This is a useful mode to detect imbalance between
sockets.
To enable this mode, use --aggr-socket in addition
to -a. (system-wide).
The output includes the socket number and the number of online
processors on that socket. This is useful to gauge the amount of
aggregation.
# ./perf stat -I 1000 -a --aggr-socket -e cycles sleep 2
# time socket cpus counts events
1.000097680 S0 4 5,788,785 cycles
2.000379943 S0 4 27,361,546 cycles
2.001167808 S0 4 818,275 cycles

This patch adds a new printing mode for perf stat. It allows interval
printing. That means perf stat can now print event deltas at regular
time interval. This is useful to detect phases in programs.
The -I option enables interval printing. It expects an interval duration
in milliseconds. Minimum is 100ms. Once, activated perf stat prints
events deltas since last printout. All modes are supported.
$ perf stat -I 1000 -e cycles noploop 10
noploop for 10 seconds
# time counts events
1.000109853 2,388,560,546 cycles
2.000262846 2,393,332,358 cycles
3.000354131 2,393,176,537 cycles
4.000439503 2,393,203,790 cycles
5.000527075 2,393,167,675 cycles
6.000609052 2,393,203,670 cycles
7.000691082 2,393,175,678 cycles
The output format makes it easy to feed into a plotting program such as
gnuplot when the -I option is used in combination with the -x option:
$ perf stat -x, -I 1000 -e cycles noploop 10
noploop for 10 seconds
1.000084113,2378775498,cycles
2.000245798,2391056897,cycles
3.000354445,2392089414,cycles
4.000459115,2390936603,cycles

Sometimes a test is problematic for some reason and one wants to skip it,
for instance:
[root@sandy ~]# perf test
1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms : Ok
2: detect open syscall event : Ok
3: detect open syscall event on all cpus : Ok
4: read samples using the mmap interface : Ok
5: parse events tests : Warning: bad op token {
Warning: bad op token {
Warning: bad op token {
Warning: bad op token {
Warning: bad op token {
Warning: function is_writable_pte not defined
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
So now we can use -s/--skip while the problematic tests are being fixed,
allowing us to test all the other entries:
[root@sandy ~]# perf test -s 5
1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms : Ok
2: detect open syscall event : Ok
3: detect open syscall event on all cpus : Ok
4: read samples using the mmap interface : Ok
5: parse events tests : Skip (user override)
6: x86 rdpmc test : Ok
7: Validate PERF_RECORD_* events & perf_sample fields : Ok
8: Test perf pmu format parsing : Ok
9: Test dso data interface : Ok
10: roundtrip evsel->name check : Ok
11: Check parsing of sched tracepoints fields : Ok
12: Generate and check syscalls:sys_enter_open event fields: Ok
13: struct perf_event_attr setup : Ok
14: Test matching and linking mutliple hists : Ok
15: Try 'use perf' in python, checking link problems : Ok

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
. perf build-id cache now can show DSOs present in a perf.data file that are
not in the cache, to integrate with build-id servers being put in place by
organizations such as Fedora.
. perf buildid-list -i an-elf-file-instead-of-a-perf.data is back showing its
build-id.
. No need to do feature checks when doing a 'make tags'
. Fix some 'perf test' errors and make them use the tracepoint evsel constructor.
. perf top now shares more of the evsel config/creation routines with 'record',
paving the way for further integration like 'top' snapshots, etc.
. perf top now supports DWARF callchains.
. perf evlist decodes sample_type and read_format, helping diagnose problems.
. Fix mmap limitations on 32-bit, fix from David Miller.
. perf diff fixes from Jiri Olsa.
. Ignore ABS symbols when loading data maps, fix from Namhyung Kim
. Hists improvements from Namhyung Kim
. Don't check configuration on make clean, from Namhyung Kim
. Fix dso__fprintf() print statement, from Stephane Eranian.
