Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Kernel side changes mostly consist of work on x86 PMU drivers:

   - x86 Intel PT (hardware CPU tracer) improvements (Alexander
     Shishkin)

   - x86 Intel CQM (cache quality monitoring) improvements (Thomas
     Gleixner)

   - x86 Intel PEBSv3 support (Peter Zijlstra)

   - x86 Intel PEBS interrupt batching support for lower overhead
     sampling (Zheng Yan, Kan Liang)

   - x86 PMU scheduler fixes and improvements (Peter Zijlstra)

  There's too many tooling improvements to list them all - here are a
  few select highlights:

  'perf bench':

      - Introduce new 'perf bench futex' benchmark: 'wake-parallel', to
        measure parallel waker threads generating contention for kernel
        locks (hb->lock). (Davidlohr Bueso)

  'perf top', 'perf report':

      - Allow disabling/enabling events dynamicaly in 'perf top':
        a 'perf top' session can instantly become a 'perf report'
        one, i.e. going from dynamic analysis to a static one,
        returning to a dynamic one is possible, to toogle the
        modes, just press 'f' to 'freeze/unfreeze' the sampling. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

      - Make Ctrl-C stop processing on TUI, allowing interrupting the load of big
        perf.data files (Namhyung Kim)

  'perf probe': (Masami Hiramatsu)

      - Support glob wildcards for function name
      - Support $params special probe argument: Collect all function arguments
      - Make --line checks validate C-style function name.
      - Add --no-inlines option to avoid searching inline functions
      - Greatly speed up 'perf probe --list' by caching debuginfo.
      - Improve --filter support for 'perf probe', allowing using its arguments
        on other commands, as --add, --del, etc.

  'perf sched':

      - Add option in 'perf sched' to merge like comms to lat output (Josef Bacik)

  Plus tons of infrastructure work - in particular preparation for
  upcoming threaded perf report support, but also lots of other work -
  and fixes and other improvements.  See (much) more details in the
  shortlog and in the git log"

+/* Copied from the kernel sources to tools/:
+ *
+ * These are here in an effort to more fully work around Spitfire Errata
+ * #51.  Essentially, if a memory barrier occurs soon after a mispredicted
+ * branch, the chip can stop executing instructions until a trap occurs.
+ * Therefore, if interrupts are disabled, the chip can hang forever.
+ *
+ * It used to be believed that the memory barrier had to be right in the
+ * delay slot, but a case has been traced recently wherein the memory barrier
+ * was one instruction after the branch delay slot and the chip still hung.
+ * The offending sequence was the following in sym_wakeup_done() of the
+ * sym53c8xx_2 driver:
+ *
+ *	call	sym_ccb_from_dsa, 0
+ *	 movge	%icc, 0, %l0
+ *	brz,pn	%o0, .LL1303
+ *	 mov	%o0, %l2
+ *	membar	#LoadLoad
+ *
+ * The branch has to be mispredicted for the bug to occur.  Therefore, we put
+ * the memory barrier explicitly into a "branch always, predicted taken"
+ * delay slot to avoid the problem case.
