This adds an option '-m/--buffer-size' to allow us set the size of per-cpu
tracing buffer.
Committer testing:
Before running with this option:
# find /sys/kernel/tracing/ -name buffer_size_kb | xargs cat
1408
1408
1408
1408
1408
1408

#
Then, run:
# perf ftrace -m 2048K | head -10
2) | mutex_unlock() {
2) ==========> |
2) | smp_irq_work_interrupt() {
2) | irq_enter() {
2) 0.121 us | rcu_irq_enter();
2) 0.128 us | irqtime_account_irq();
2) 0.719 us | }
2) | __wake_up() {
2) | __wake_up_common_lock() {
2) 0.105 us | _raw_spin_lock_irqsave();
#
Now look at those tracefs knobs:
# find /sys/kernel/tracing/ -name buffer_size_kb | xargs cat
2048
2048
2048
2048
2048

This should be similar to the -m option in the other perf tools, such as
'perf record', 'perf trace', etc.

The '-g/-G' options have already implied function_graph tracer should be
used instead of function tracer. So we don't need extra option
'--tracer' in this case.
This patch changes the behavior as below:
- If '-g' or '-G' option is on, then function_graph tracer is used.
- If '-T' or '-N' option is on, then function tracer is used.
- The function_graph has priority over function tracer.
- The option '--tracer' only take effect if neither -g/-G nor -T/-N
is specified.
Here are some examples.
This will start tracing all functions using default tracer:
$ sudo perf ftrace
This will trace all functions using function graph tracer:
$ sudo perf ftrace -G '*'
This will trace function vfs_read using function graph tracer:
$ sudo perf ftrace -G vfs_read
This will trace function vfs_read using function tracer:
$ sudo perf ftrace -T vfs_read
Committer notes:
Using '-h -G' will tell what that option is about, so to further clarify
the above examples:
# perf ftrace -h -G
-G, --graph-funcs <func> Set graph filter on given functions
# perf ftrace -h -g
-g, --nograph-funcs <func> Set nograph filter on given functions
# perf ftrace -h -T
-T, --trace-funcs <func> trace given functions only
# perf ftrace -h -N
-N, --notrace-funcs <func> do not trace given functions

Adad support to convert and store time of day in CTF data conversion for
'perf data convert' subcommand.
The perf.data used for conversion needs to have clock data information -
must be recorded with -k/--clockid option).
New --tod option is added to 'perf data convert' subcommand to convert
data with timestamps converted to wall clock time.
Record data with clockid set:
# perf record -k CLOCK_MONOTONIC kill
kill: not enough arguments
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.033 MB perf.data (8 samples) ]
Convert data with TOD timestamps:
# perf data convert --tod --to-ctf ./ctf
[ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './ctf' ]
[ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 0.000 MB (8 samples) ]
Display data in perf script:
# perf script -F+tod --ns

It's available only for recording with clockid specified, because it's
the only case where we can get reference time to wallclock time. It's
can't do that with perf clock yet.
Error is display if you want to use --tod on data without clockid
specified:
# perf data convert --tod --to-ctf ./ctf
Can't provide --tod time, missing clock data. Please record with -k/--clockid option.

Add a new CLOCK_DATA feature that stores reference times when
-k/--clockid option is specified.
It contains the clock id and its reference time together with wall clock
time taken at the 'same time', both values are in nanoseconds.
The format of data is as below:
struct {
u32 version; /* version = 1 */
u32 clockid;
u64 wall_clock_ns;
u64 clockid_time_ns;
};
This clock reference times will be used in following changes to display
wall clock for perf events.
It's available only for recording with clockid specified, because it's
the only case where we can get reference time to wallclock time. It's
can't do that with perf clock yet.

A single q option decodes ip from only FUP/TIP packets. Make it so that
repeating the q option (i.e. qq) decodes only PSB+, getting ip if there
is a FUP packet within PSB+ (i.e. between PSB and PSBEND).
Example:
$ perf record -e intel_pt//u grep -rI pudding drivers
[ perf record: Woken up 52 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 57.870 MB perf.data ]
$ time perf script --itrace=bi | wc -l

The itrace "e" option may be followed by flags which affect what errors
will or will not be reported. Each flag must be preceded by either '+' or '-'.
The flags supported by Intel PT are:
-o Suppress overflow errors
-l Suppress trace data lost errors
For example, for errors but not overflow or data lost errors:
--itrace=e-o-l
Suppressing those errors can be useful for testing and debugging because
they are not due to decoding.
