hw-breakpoints: Use struct perf_event_attr to define user breakpoints
In-kernel user breakpoints are created using functions in which
we pass breakpoint parameters as individual variables: address,
length and type.
Although it fits well for x86, this just does not scale across
archictectures that may support this api later as these may have
more or different needs. Pass in a perf_event_attr structure
instead because it is meant to evolve as much as possible into
a generic hardware breakpoint parameter structure.

perf_events: Fix read() bogus counts when in error state
When a pinned group cannot be scheduled it goes into error state.
Normally a group cannot go out of error state without being
explicitly re-enabled or disabled. There was a bug in per-thread
mode, whereby upon termination of the thread, the group would
transition from error to off leading to bogus counts and timing
information returned by read().
Fix it by clearing the error state.

It is not quite obvious at first sight what TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE
does: does it define an event as well beyond defining a template?
To clarify this, rename it to DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS, which follows
the various 'DECLARE_*()' idioms we already have in the kernel:
DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS(class)
DEFINE_EVENT(class, event1)
DEFINE_EVENT(class, event2)
DEFINE_EVENT(class, event3)

sched.o-trace is the tracepoints before this patch
The trace events converted to DEFINE_EVENT:
sched_wakeup, sched_wakeup_new, sched_process_free, sched_process_exit,
and sched_stat_wait.
The trace events converted to DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT:
sched_stat_sleep and sched_stat_iowait.
Note, since the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE always uses a print, the
sched_stat_wait print format is defined in the template and this
template is used by sched_stat_sleep and sched_stat_iowait. But the
later two override the print format.

tracing: Create new DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT
After creating the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE I started to look at other
trace points to see what duplication was made. I noticed that there
are several trace points where they are almost identical except for
the name and the output format. Since TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE was successful
in bringing down the size of trace events, I added a DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT.
DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT is used just like DEFINE_EVENT is. That is, the
DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT also uses a TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE, but it allows the
developer to overwrite the print format. If there are two or more
TRACE_EVENTS that are identical except for the name and print, then
they can be converted to use a TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE. Since the
TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE already does the print output, the first trace event
would have its print format held in the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE and
be defined with a DEFINE_EVENT. The rest will use the DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT
and override the print format.
Converting the sched trace points to both DEFINE_EVENT and
DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT. Five were converted to DEFINE_EVENT and two were
converted to DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT.
I was able to get the following:
$ size kernel/sched.o-*
text data bss dec hex filename
79299 6776 2520 88595 15a13 kernel/sched.o-notrace
101941 11896 2584 116421 1c6c5 kernel/sched.o-templ
104779 11896 2584 119259 1d1db kernel/sched.o-trace
sched.o-notrace is the scheduler compiled with no trace points.
sched.o-templ is with the use of DEFINE_EVENT and DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT
sched.o-trace is the current trace events.

tracing: Create new TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE
There are some places in the kernel that define several tracepoints and
they are all identical besides the name. The code to enable, disable and
record is created for every trace point even if most of the code is
identical.
This patch adds TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE that lets the developer create
a template TRACE_EVENT and create trace points with DEFINE_EVENT, which
is based off of a given template. Each trace point used by this
will share most of the code, and bring down the size of the kernel
when there are several duplicate events.
Usage is:
TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE(name, proto, args, tstruct, assign, print);
Which would be the same as defining a normal TRACE_EVENT.
To create the trace events that the trace points will use:
DEFINE_EVENT(template, name, proto, args) is done. The template
is the name of the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE to use. The name is the
name of the trace point. The parameters proto and args must be the same
as the proto and args of the template. If they are not the same,
then a compile error will result. I tried hard removing this duplication
but the C preprocessor is not powerful enough (or my CPP magic
experience points is not at a high enough level) to not need them.
A lot of trace events are coming in with new XFS development. Most of
the trace points are identical except for the name. The following shows
the advantage of having TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE:
$ size fs/xfs/xfs.o.*
text data bss dec hex filename
452114 2788 3520 458422 6feb6 fs/xfs/xfs.o.old
638482 38116 3744 680342 a6196 fs/xfs/xfs.o.template
996954 38116 4480
1039550 fdcbe fs/xfs/xfs.o.trace
xfs.o.old is without any tracepoints.
xfs.o.template uses the new TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE.
xfs.o.trace uses the current TRACE_EVENT macros.

perf_events, x86: Fix validate_event bug
The validate_event() was failing on valid event combinations. The
function was assuming that if x86_schedule_event() returned 0, it
meant error. But x86_schedule_event() returns the counter index and
0 is a perfectly valid value. An error is returned if the function
returns a negative value.
Furthermore, validate_event() was also failing for event groups
because the event->pmu was not set until after
hw_perf_event_init().

hw-breakpoints: Check the breakpoint params from perf tools
Perf tools create perf events as disabled in the beginning.
Breakpoints are then considered like ptrace temporary
breakpoints, only meant to reserve a breakpoint slot until we
get all the necessary informations from the user.
In this case, we don't check the address that is breakpointed as
it is NULL in the ptrace case.
But perf tools don't have the same purpose, events are created
disabled to wait for all events to be created before enabling
all of them. We want to check the breakpoint parameters in this
case.

perf_events: Restore sanity to scaling land
It is quite possible to call update_event_times() on a context
that isn't actually running and thereby confuse the thing.
perf stat was reporting !100% scale values for software counters
(
2e2af50b perf_events: Disable events when we detach them,
solved the worst of that, but there was still some left).
The thing that happens is that because we are not self-reaping
(we have a caring parent) there is a time between the last
schedule (out) and having do_exit() called which will detach the
events.
This period would be accounted as enabled,!running because the
event->state==INACTIVE, even though !event->ctx->is_active.
Similar issues could have been observed by calling read() on a
event while the attached task was not scheduled in.
Solve this by teaching update_event_times() about
ctx->is_active.

perf bench: Make the mem/memcpy tests more user-friendly
mem-memcpy.c uses perf event system calls to obtain CPU clocks.
And it suddenly dies with BUG_ON() when it running on Linux
doesn't support perf event.
Also fail at calloc() can occur easily when too large
length is passed. Fail of calloc() causes sudden death
with assert().
These behaviours are not friendly. So I fixed the treating of
errors.

perf_events: Fix default watermark calculation
This patch fixes the default watermark value for the sampling
buffer. With the existing calculation (watermark =
max(PAGE_SIZE, max_size / 2)), no notification was ever received
when the buffer was exactly 1 page. This was because you would
never cross the threshold (there is no partial samples).
In certain configuration, there was no possibilty detecting the
problem because there was not enough space left to store the
LOST record.In fact, there may be a more generic problem here.
The kernel should ensure that there is alaways enough space to
store one LOST record.
This patch sets the default watermark to half the buffer size.
With such limit, we are guaranteed to get a notification even
with a single page buffer assuming no sample is bigger than a
page.
