This patch fixes issues introuduce by Andi's previous patch 'Revamp PEBS'
series.
This patch fixes the following:
- precise_store_data_hsw() encode the mem op type whenever we can
- precise_store_data_hsw set the default data source correctly
- 0 is not a valid init value for data source. Define PERF_MEM_NA as the
default value

Haswell supports reporting the data address for a range
of PEBS events, including:
UOPS_RETIRED.ALL
MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.STLB_MISS_LOADS
MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.STLB_MISS_STORES
MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.LOCK_LOADS
MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.SPLIT_LOADS
MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.SPLIT_STORES
MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.ALL_LOADS
MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.ALL_STORES
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.L1_HIT
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.L2_HIT
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.L3_HIT
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.L1_MISS
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.L2_MISS
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.L3_MISS
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.HIT_LFB
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_L3_HIT_RETIRED.XSNP_MISS
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_L3_HIT_RETIRED.XSNP_HIT
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_L3_HIT_RETIRED.XSNP_HITM
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_L3_HIT_RETIRED.XSNP_NONE
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_L3_MISS_RETIRED.LOCAL_DRAM
This facility was already enabled earlier with the original Haswell
perf changes.
However these addresses were always reports as stores by perf, which is wrong,
as they could be loads too. The hardware does not distinguish loads and stores
for these instructions, so there's no (cheap) way for the profiler
to find out.
Change the type to PERF_MEM_OP_NA instead.

The basic idea is that it does not make sense to list all PEBS
events individually. The list is very long, sometimes outdated
and the hardware doesn't need it. If an event does not support
PEBS it will just not count, there is no security issue.
We need to only list events that something special, like
supporting load or store addresses.
This vastly simplifies the PEBS event selection. It also
speeds up the scheduling because the scheduler doesn't
have to walk as many constraints.
Bugs fixed:
- We do not allow setting forbidden flags with PEBS anymore
(SDM 18.9.4), except for the special cycle event.
This is done using a new constraint macro that also
matches on the event flags.
- Correct DataLA and load/store/na flags reporting on Haswell
[Requires a followon patch]
- We did not allow all PEBS events on Haswell:
We were missing some valid subevents in d1-d2 (MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.*,
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED_L3_HIT_RETIRED.*)
This includes the changes proposed by Stephane earlier and obsoletes
his patchkit (except for some changes on pre Sandy Bridge/Silvermont
CPUs)
I only did Sandy Bridge and Silvermont and later so far, mostly because these
are the parts I could directly confirm the hardware behavior with hardware
architects. Also I do not believe the older CPUs have any
missing events in their PEBS list, so there's no pressing
need to change them.
I did not implement the flag proposed by Peter to allow
setting forbidden flags. If really needed this could
be implemented on to of this patch.
v2: Fix broken store events on SNB/IVB (Stephane Eranian)
v3: More fixes. Rename some arguments (Stephane Eranian)
v4: List most Haswell events individually again to report
memory operation type correctly.
Add new flags to describe load/store/na for datala.
Update description.

One should first enqueue to the waitqueue and then check for the
condition. If the condition gets true after mutex_unlock() but before
poll_wait() then we lose it and would have wait for another wakeup.
This has been like this since v2.6.31-rc1 commit c7138f37f9 ("perf_counter:
fix perf_poll()"). Before that it was slightly worse. I guess we get enough
wakeups so if we miss here one it doesn't really matter. It is still a
bad example.

HSW-EP has a larger offcore mask than the client Haswell CPUs.
It is the same mask as on Sandy/IvyBridge-EP. All of
Haswell was using the client mask, so some bits were missing.
On the client parts some bits were also missing compared
to Sandy/IvyBridge, in particular the bits to match on a L4
cache hit.
The Haswell core in both client and server incarnations
accepts the same bits (but some are nops), so we can use
the same mask.
So use the snbep extended mask, which is a superset of the
client and the server, for all of Haswell.
This allows specifying a number of extra offcore events, like
for example for HSW-EP.
% perf stat -e cpu/event=0xb7,umask=0x1,offcore_rsp=0x3fffc00100,name=offcore_response_pf_l3_rfo_l3_miss_any_response/ true
which were <not supported> before.

In cases when the owner task exits before the workload and the
workload made some forks, all the events stay in until the last
workload process exits. Thats' because each child event holds
parent reference.
We want to release all children events once the parent is gone,
because at that time there's no process to read them anyway, so
they're just eating resources.
This removal races with process exit, which removes all events
and fork, which clone events. To be clear of those two, adding
work queue to remove orphaned child for context in case such
event is detected.
Using delayed work queue (with delay == 1), because we queue this
work under perf scheduler callbacks. Normal work queue tries to wake
up the queue process, which deadlocks on rq->lock in this place.
Also preventing clones from abandoned parent event.

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
User visible fixes and changes:
* Show better error message in case we fail to open counters due to EBUSY error,
for instance, when oprofile is running. (Jiri Olsa)
* Honour -w in the report tools (report, top), allowing to specify the widths
for the histogram entries columns. (Namhyung Kim)
* Don't run workload if not told to, as happens when the user has no
permission for profiling and even then the specified workload ends
up running (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
* Do not ignore mmap events in 'perf kmem report'. This tool was using
the kernel mmaps in the running machine instead of processing the mmap
records from the perf.data file. (Namhyung Kim)
* Properly show submicrosecond times in 'perf kvm stat' (Christian Borntraeger)
* Honour existing 'perf record' --time/-T command line option (Andi Kleen)
* Make sure --symfs usage includes the path separator (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Development infrastructure fixes and changes:
* Fix arm64 build error (Mark Salter)
* Fix make PYTHON override (Namhyung Kim)
* Rename ordered_samples to ordered_events and allow setting a queue
size for ordering events (Jiri Olsa)
* Default to python version 2 (Thomas Ilsche)

According to PEP 394 recommendation [1], it's more portable to use
python2 rather than plain python to refer python binary version 2.
Since there're distros using python3 by default like Arch, and we don't
support python3 (yet), it'd be better using python2 explicitly.
But older versions (prior to 2.7) seem not to provide python2 but just
python. Given that it's only old version, try python2 first and then
fallback to python. It'll ensure that it always points to python 2.x.
I tested (compiles and perf script runs) with the combinations:
1) python -> python2.x, python-config -> python2.x-config
python2 N/A, python2-config N/A
2) python -> python3.x, python-config -> python3.x-config
python2 -> python2.x, python2-config -> python2.x-config
3) python -> python2.x, python-config -> python2.x-config
python2 -> python2.x, python2-config -> python2.x-config
4) python -> python2.x, python-config -> python2.x-config
python2 -> python2.x, python2-config N/A
Based on / replaces the patch 2/2 by Namhyung Kim.

Showing better error message in case we fail to open counters due to the
EBUSY error. If we detect oprofile daemon process running, we now
display following message for EBUSY error:
$ perf record ls
Error:
The PMU counters are busy/taken by another profiler.
We found oprofile daemon running, please stop it and try again.
In case oprofiled was not detected the current error message stays:
$ perf record ls
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 16 (Device or resource busy) for event (cycles).
/bin/dmesg may provide additional information.
No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?
Also changing PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC detection code not to display error
in case of EBUSY error, as it currently does:
$ perf record ls
Error:
perf_event_open(..., PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC) failed with unexpected error 16 (Device or resource busy)
perf_event_open(..., 0) failed unexpectedly with error 16 (Device or resource busy)
The PMU counters are busy/taken by another profiler.
We found oprofile daemon running, please stop it and try again.
