Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "As a first remark I'd like to point out that the obsolete '-f'
  (--force) option, which has not done anything for several releases,
  has been removed from 'perf record' and related utilities.  Everyone
  please update muscle memory accordingly! :-)

  Main changes on the perf tooling side (some of these tooling changes
  utilize the above kernel side changes):

   - Lots of 'perf trace' enhancements:

        . Make 'perf trace' command line arguments consistent with
          'perf record', by David Ahern.

        . Allow specifying syscalls a la strace, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Add --verbose and -o/--output options, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Support ! in -e expressions, to filter a list of syscalls,
          by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Arg formatting improvements to allow masking arguments in
          syscalls such as futex and open, where the some arguments are
          ignored and thus should not be printed depending on other args,
          by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Beautify futex open, openat, open_by_handle_at, lseek and futex
          syscalls, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Add option to analyze events in a file versus live, so that
          one can do:

           [root@zoo ~]# perf record -a -e raw_syscalls:* sleep 1
           [ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
           [ perf record: Captured and wrote 25.150 MB perf.data (~1098836 samples) ]
           [root@zoo ~]# perf trace -i perf.data -e futex --duration 1
              17.799 ( 1.020 ms): 7127 futex(uaddr: 0x7fff3f6c6674, op: 393, val: 1, utime: 0x7fff3f6c6470, ua

           [root@zoo ~]#

          By David Ahern.

        . Honor target pid / tid options when analyzing a file, by David Ahern.

   - 'perf report/top' enhancements:

        . Do annotation using /proc/kcore and /proc/kallsyms when
          available, removing the forced need for a vmlinux file kernel
          assembly annotation. This also improves this use case because
          vmlinux has just the initial kernel image, not what is actually
          in use after various code patchings by things like alternatives.
          By Adrian Hunter.

        . Add --ignore-callees=<regex> option to collapse undesired parts

          duration, by David Ahern.

        . Improve stack trace printing, by David Ahern.

        . Update documentation of the live command, by David Ahern

        . Add perf kvm stat live mode that combines aspects of 'perf kvm

        . Fix named threads support, by David Ahern.

        . Don't install scripting files files when perl/python support
          is disabled, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

   - 'perf test' enhancements:

        . Add various improvements and fixes to the "vmlinux matches
          kallsyms" 'perf test' entry, related to the /proc/kcore
          annotation feature. By Adrian Hunter.

        . Add sample parsing test, by Adrian Hunter.

        . Add test for reading object code, by Adrian Hunter.

   - 'perf sched' enhancements:

        . Various improvements, including removing reliance on some
          scheduler tracepoints that provide the same information as the
          PERF_RECORD_{FORK,EXIT} events. By David Ahern.

        . Remove odd build stall by moving a large struct initialization
          from a local variable to a global one, by Namhyung Kim.

   - 'perf stat' enhancements:

        . Add --initial-delay option to skip measuring for a defined
          startup phase, by Andi Kleen.

   - Generic perf tooling infrastructure/plumbing changes:

        . Tidy up sample parsing validation, by Adrian Hunter.

        . Fix up jobserver setup in libtraceevent Makefile.
          by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Debug improvements, by Adrian Hunter.

        . Fix correlation of samples coming after PERF_RECORD_EXIT event,
          by David Ahern.

        . Improve robustness of the topology parsing code,
          by Stephane Eranian.

        . Add group leader sampling, that allows just one event in a group
          to sample while the other events have just its values read,
          by Jiri Olsa.

        . Add support for a new modifier "D", which requests that the
          event, or group of events, be pinned to the PMU.
          By Michael Ellerman.

        . Support callchain sorting based on addresses, by Andi Kleen

fa0097ee69 perf: Add a dummy software event to keep tracking
When an event is disabled the "tracking" events selected by the 'mmap',
'comm' and 'task' bits of struct perf_event_attr, are also disabled.
However, the information those events provide is necessary to resolve
symbols for when the main event is re-enabled.

The "tracking" events can be kept enabled by putting them on another
event, but that requires an event that otherwise does nothing.  A new
software event PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY is added for that purpose.

If PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK is enabled then samples are returned
with the format { u64 from, to, flags } but the flags layout
is not specified.

This field has the type struct perf_branch_entry; move this
definition into include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h so users can
access these fields.

This is similar to the existing inclusion of perf_mem_data_src in

13d7a2410f perf: Add attr->mmap2 attribute to an event
Adds a new PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 record type which is essence
an expanded version of PERF_RECORD_MMAP.

Used to request mmap records with more information about
the mapping, including device major, minor and the inode
number and generation for mappings associated with files
or shared memory segments. Works for code and data
(with attr->mmap_data set).

Existing PERF_RECORD_MMAP record is unmodified by this patch.

ff3d527ceb perf: make events stream always parsable
The event stream is not always parsable because the format of a sample
is dependent on the sample_type of the selected event.  When there is
more than one selected event and the sample_types are not the same then
parsing becomes problematic.  A sample can be matched to its selected
event using the ID that is allocated when the event is opened.
Unfortunately, to get the ID from the sample means first parsing it.

This patch adds a new sample format bit PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFER that puts
the ID at a fixed position so that the ID can be retrieved without
parsing the sample.  For sample events, that is the first position
immediately after the header.  For non-sample events, that is the last
position.

In this respect parsing samples requires that the sample_type and ID
values are recorded.  For example, perf tools records struct
perf_event_attr and the IDs within the perf.data file.  Those must be
read first before it is possible to parse samples found later in the
perf.data file.

d2ab1fa68c PCI: Rename PCIe capability definitions to follow convention
All other PCIe capability register fields include "PCI_EXP" + <reg-name> +
<field-name>.  This renames PCI_EXP_OBFF_MASK, PCI_EXP_IDO_REQ_EN,
PCI_EXP_LTR_EN, and related fields using the same convention.
No functional change.

4a5a8aa6c9 ipv4: expose IPV4_DEVCONF
IP sends device configuration (see inet_fill_link_af) as an array
in the netlink information, but the indices in that array are not
exposed to userspace through any current santized header file.

It was available back in 2.6.32 (in /usr/include/linux/sysctl.h)
but was broken by:
  commit 02291680ff

    net ipv4: Decouple ipv4 interface parameters from binary sysctl numbers

Eric was solving the sysctl problem but then the indices were re-exposed
by a later addition of devconf support for IPV4

  commit 9f0f7272ac
  Author: Thomas Graf <tgraf@infradead.org>
  Date:   Tue Nov 16 04:32:48 2010 +0000

    ipv4: AF_INET link address family

Putting them in /usr/include/linux/ip.h seemed the logical match
for the DEVCONF_ definitions for IPV6 in /usr/include/linux/ip6.h

8a8e3d84b1 net_sched: restore "linklayer atm" handling
commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates")
broke the "linklayer atm" handling.

 tc class add ... htb rate X ceil Y linklayer atm

The linklayer setting is implemented by modifying the rate table
which is send to the kernel.  No direct parameter were
transferred to the kernel indicating the linklayer setting.

The commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates")
removed the use of the rate table system.

To keep compatible with older iproute2 utils, this patch detects
the linklayer by parsing the rate table.  It also supports future
versions of iproute2 to send this linklayer parameter to the
kernel directly. This is done by using the __reserved field in
struct tc_ratespec, to convey the choosen linklayer option, but
only using the lower 4 bits of this field.

Linklayer detection is limited to speeds below 100Mbit/s, because
at high rates the rtab is gets too inaccurate, so bad that
several fields contain the same values, this resembling the ATM
detect.  Fields even start to contain "0" time to send, e.g. at
1000Mbit/s sending a 96 bytes packet cost "0", thus the rtab have
been more broken than we first realized.

288a937637 net: rename busy poll MIB counter
Rename mib counter from "low latency" to "busy poll"

v1 also moved the counter to the ip MIB (suggested by Shawn Bohrer)
Eric Dumazet suggested that the current location is better.

So v2 just renames the counter to fit the new naming convention.

cf4957f17f perf: Add PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID ioctl to return event ID
The only way to get the event ID is by reading the event fd,
followed by parsing the ID value out of the returned data.

While this is ok for current read format used by perf tool,
it is not ok when we use PERF_FORMAT_GROUP format.

With this format the data are returned for the whole group
and there's no way to find out what ID belongs to our fd
(if we are not group leader event).

Adding a simple ioctl that returns event primary ID for given fd.
