On systems with more than one socket perf stat --per-core would either
segfault or stop before outputting all cores.
The problem was that the output code referenced the id including the
socket number in the higher bits, which is far beyond any per cpu array.
Mask out the socket number before referencing cpus in abs_printout.
I also renamed the variable in nsec_printout to be clear what it is,
even though it doesn't reference cpus.

Pull perf tooling updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
Infrastructure changes:
* We were not handling POLLHUP notifications for event file descriptors.
Fix it by filtering entries in the events file descriptor array after
poll() returns, refcounting mmaps so that when the last fd pointing to
a perf mmap goes away we do the unmap. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
User visible changes:
* Now 'record' and 'trace' properly exit when a target thread exits.

We will use this in perf's evlist class so that it can, at
fdarray__filter() time, to unmap the associated ring buffer.
We may need to have further info associated with each fdarray entry, in
that case we'll make that int array a 'union fdarray_priv' one and put a
pointer there so that users can stash whatever they want there. For now,
an int is enough tho.
v2: Add clarification to the per array entry priv area, as well as make
it a union, which makes usage a bit longer, but if/when we make it
use more space by allowing per entry pointers existing users source
code will not have to be changed, just rebuilt.

The extensible file description array that grew in the perf_evlist class
can be useful for other tools, as it is not something that only evlists
need, so move it to tools/lib/api/fd to ease sharing it.
v2: Don't use {} like in:
libapi_dirs:
$(QUIET_MKDIR)mkdir -p $(OUTPUT){fs,fd}/
in Makefiles, as it will not work in some systems, as in ubuntu13.10.
v3: Add fd/*.[ch] to LIBAPIKFS_SOURCES (Fix from Jiri Olsa)
v4: Leave the fcntl(fd, O_NONBLOCK) in the evlist layer, remains to
be checked if it is really needed there, but has no place in the
fdarray class (Fix from Jiri Olsa)
v5: Remove evlist details from fdarray grow/filter tests. Improve it a
bit doing more tests about expected internal state.

We want to know when the fd went away, like when a monitored thread
exits.
If we do not monitor such events, then the tools will wait forever on
events from a vanished thread, like when running:
$ sleep 5s &
$ perf record -p `pidof sleep`
This builds upon the kernel patch by Jiri Olsa that actually makes a
poll on those file descriptors to return POLLHUP.
It is also needed to change the tools to use
perf_evlist__filter_pollfd() to check if there are remainings fds to
monitor or if all are gone, in which case they will exit the
poll/mmap/read loop.

This patch restructures the memory controller (IMC) uncore PMU support
for client SNB/IVB/HSW processors. The main change is that it can now
cope with more than one PCI device ID per processor model. There are
many flavors of memory controllers for each processor. They have
different PCI device ID, yet they behave the same w.r.t. the memory
controller PMU that we are interested in.
The patch now supports two distinct memory controllers for IVB
processors: one for mobile, one for desktop.

The IvyBridge-EP uncore driver was missing three filter flags:
NC, ISOC, C6 which are useful in some cases. Support them in the same way
as the Haswell EP driver, by allowing to set them and exposing
them in the sysfs formats.
Also fix a typo in a define.
Relies on the Haswell EP driver to be applied earlier.

Use the newly added Broadwell cache event list for Haswell too.
All Haswell and Broadwell events and offcore masks used in these lists
are identical.
However Haswell is very different from the Sandy Bridge
list that was used previously. That fixes a wide range of mis-counting
cache events.
The node events are now only for retired memory events, so prefetching
and speculative memory accesses are not included. They are PEBS
capable now, which makes it much easier to sample for them, plus it's
possible to create address maps with -d.
The prefetch events are gone now. They way the hardware counts
them is very misleading (some prefetches included, others not), so
it seemed best to leave them out.

On Broadwell INST_RETIRED.ALL cannot be used with any period
that doesn't have the lowest 6 bits cleared. And the period
should not be smaller than 128.
Add a new callback to enforce this, and set it for Broadwell.
This is erratum BDM57 and BDM11.
How does this handle the case when an app requests a specific
period with some of the bottom bits set
The apps thinks it is sampling at X occurences per sample, when it is
in fact at X - 63 (worst case).
Short answer:
Any useful instruction sampling period needs to be 4-6 orders
of magnitude larger than 128, as an PMI every 128 instructions
would instantly overwhelm the system and be throttled.
So the +-64 error from this is really small compared to the
period, much smaller than normal system jitter.
Long answer:
<write up by Peter:>
IFF we guarantee perf_event_attr::sample_period >= 128.
Suppose we start out with sample_period=192; then we'll set period_left
to 192, we'll end up with left = 128 (we truncate the lower bits). We
get an interrupt, find that period_left = 64 (>0 so we return 0 and
don't get an overflow handler), up that to 128. Then we trigger again,
at n=256. Then we find period_left = -64 (<=0 so we return 1 and do get
an overflow). We increment with sample_period so we get left = 128. We
fire again, at n=384, period_left = 0 (<=0 so we return 1 and get an
overflow). And on and on.
So while the individual interrupts are 'wrong' we get then with
interval=256,128 in exactly the right ratio to average out at 192. And
this works for everything >=128.
So the num_samples*fixed_period thing is still entirely correct +- 127,
which is good enough I'd say, as you already have that error anyhow.
So no need to 'fix' the tools, al we need to do is refuse to create
INST_RETIRED:ALL events with sample_period < 128.

Add Broadwell support for Broadwell Client to perf. This is very
similar to Haswell. It uses a new cache event table, because there
were various changes there.
The constraint list has one new event that needs to be handled over
Haswell.
The PEBS event list is the same, so we reuse Haswell's.

If a vmlinux is stripped, perf will use it and ignore kallsyms. We
end up with useless profiles where everything maps to a few
runtime symbols:
63.39% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] hcall_real_table
4.90% beam.smp [kernel.kallsyms] [k] hcall_real_table
4.44% beam.smp [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __sched_text_start
3.72% beam.smp [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __run_at_kexec
Detect this case and fallback to using kallsyms. This fixes the issue:
62.81% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] snooze_loop
4.44% beam.smp [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __schedule
