Fix two inconsistencies in feature names as discussed in [1]:
1. Rename "dwarf-unwind-support" to "dwarf-unwind"
2. 'get_cpuid' feature and 'HAVE_AUXTRACE_SUPPORT' names don't
look related, change the feature name to 'auxtrace' to match the
macro name, as 'get_cpuid' string is not used anywhere to check the
feature presence

Currently the presence of a feature is checked with a combination of
perf version --build-options and greps, such as:
perf version --build-options | grep " on .* HAVE_FEATURE"
Instead of this, introduce a subcommand "perf check feature", with which
scripts can test for presence of a feature, such as:
perf check feature HAVE_FEATURE
'perf check feature' command is expected to have exit status of 0 if
feature is built-in, and 1 if it's not built-in or if feature is not known.
Multiple features can also be passed as a comma-separated list, in which
case the exit status will be 1 only if all of the passed features are
built-in. For example, with below command, it will have exit status of 0
only if both libtraceevent and bpf are enabled, else 1 in all other cases
perf check feature libtraceevent,bpf
The arguments are case-insensitive.
An array 'supported_features' has also been introduced that can be used by
other commands like 'perf version --build-options', so that new features
can be added in one place, with the array
Committer testing:
$ perf check feature libtraceevent,bpf
libtraceevent: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT
bpf: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT
$ perf check feature libtraceevent
libtraceevent: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT
$ perf check feature bpf
bpf: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT
$ perf check -q feature bpf && echo "BPF support is present"
BPF support is present
$ perf check -q feature Bogus && echo "Bogus support is present"
$

The --prio option is used to only show events for the given task priority(ies).
The default is to show events for all priority tasks, which is consistent with
the previous behavior.
Testcase:
# perf sched record nice -n 9 perf bench sched messaging -l 10000
# Running 'sched/messaging' benchmark:
# 20 sender and receiver processes per group
# 10 groups == 400 processes run

The --show-prio option is used to display the priority of task.
It is disabled by default, which is consistent with original behavior.
The display format is xxx (priority does not change during task running)
or xxx->yyy (priority changes during task running)

It's useful to print the branch counter information for each jump in

Add a new field 'brcntr' to display the branch counter information.
By default, the abbreviation will be used to indicate the branch
counter. In the verbose mode, the real event name is shown.

Reusing the existing --total-cycles option to display the branch
counters. Add a new PERF_HPP_REPORT__BLOCK_BRANCH_COUNTER to display
the logged branch counter events. They are shown right after all the
cycle-related annotations.
Extend the 'struct block_info' to store and pass the branch counter
related information.
The annotation_br_cntr_entry() is to print the histogram of each branch
counter event. If the number of logged events is less than 4, the exact
number of the abbr name is printed. Otherwise, using '+' to stands for
more than 3 events.
Assume the number of logged events is less than 4.
The annotation_br_cntr_abbr_list() prints the branch counter's
abbreviation list. Press 'B' to display the list in the TUI mode.
$ perf record -e "{branch-instructions:ppp,branch-misses}:S" -j any,counter

Current description for the AUX trace buffer size is misleading. When a
user specifies the option '-m,512M', it represents a size value in bytes
(512MiB) but not 512M pages (512M x 4KiB regard to a page of 4KiB).
Make the document clear that the normal buffer and the AUX tracing
buffer share the same semantics. Syncs the documents for consistent
text.

Like in 'perf report', we want to hide empty events in the 'perf annotate'
output. This is consistent when the option is set in perf report.
For example, the following command would use 3 events including dummy.
$ perf mem record -a -- perf test -w noploop
$ perf evlist
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P
cpu/mem-stores/P
dummy:u
Just using perf annotate with --group will show the all 3 events.
$ perf annotate --group --stdio | head
Percent | Source code & Disassembly of ...
--------------------------------------------------------------

0.00 0.00 0.00 : e060: pushq %rbp

Now with --skip-empty, it'll hide the last dummy event.

To allow BPF filters for unprivileged users it needs to pin the BPF
objects to BPF-fs first. Let's add a new option to pin and unpin the
objects easily. I'm not sure 'perf record' is a right place to do this
but I don't have a better idea right now.
$ sudo perf record --setup-filter pin
The above command would pin BPF program and maps for the filter when the
system has BPF-fs (usually at /sys/fs/bpf/). To unpin the objects,
users can run the following command (as root).
$ sudo perf record --setup-filter unpin

The 'graph-tail' option is to print function name as a comment at the end.
This is useful when a large function is mixed with other functions
(possibly from different CPUs).
For example,
$ sudo perf ftrace -- perf stat true
...
1) | get_unused_fd_flags() {
1) | alloc_fd() {
1) 0.178 us | _raw_spin_lock();
1) 0.187 us | expand_files();
1) 0.169 us | _raw_spin_unlock();
1) 1.211 us | }
1) 1.503 us | }
$ sudo perf ftrace --graph-opts tail -- perf stat true
...
1) | get_unused_fd_flags() {
1) | alloc_fd() {
1) 0.099 us | _raw_spin_lock();
1) 0.083 us | expand_files();
1) 0.081 us | _raw_spin_unlock();
1) 0.601 us | } /* alloc_fd */
1) 0.751 us | } /* get_unused_fd_flags */

By default, perf sched map prints sched-in events for all the tasks
which may not be required all the time as it prints lot of symbols
and rows to the terminal.
With --task-name option, one could specify the specific task name
for which the map has to be shown. This would help in analyzing the
CPU usage patterns easier for that specific task. Since multiple
PID's might have the same task name, using task-name filter
would be more useful for debugging.
For other tasks, instead of printing the symbol, '-' is printed and
the same '.' is used to represent idle. '-' is used instead of symbol
for other tasks because it helps in clear visualization of task
of interest and secondly the symbol itself doesn't mean anything
because the sched-in of that symbol will not be printed(first sched-in
contains pid and the corresponding symbol).
When using the --task-name option, the sched-out time is represented
by a '*-'. Since not all task sched-in events are printed, the sched-out
time of the relevant task might be lost. This representation ensures
that the sched-out time of the interested task is not overlooked.

Currently, the -r/--repeat option accepts values from 0 and complains
for -1. The help section specifies:
-r, --repeat <n> repeat the workload replay N times (-1: infinite)
The -r -1 option raises an error because replay_repeat is defined as
an unsigned int.
In the current implementation, the workload is repeated n times when
-r <n> is used, except when n is 0.
When -r is set to 0, the workload is also repeated once. This happens
because when -r=0, the run_one_test function is not called. (Note that
mutex unlocking, which is essential for child threads spawned to emulate
the workload, happens in run_one_test.) However, mutex unlocking is
still performed in the destroy_tasks function. Thus, -r=0 results in the
workload running once coincidentally.
To clarify and maintain the existing logic for -r >= 1 (which runs the
workload the specified number of times) and to fix the issue with infinite
runs, make -r=0 perform an infinite run.

When using perf timehist, sch delay is only computed for a waking task,
not for a pre empted task. This patches changes sch delay to account for
both. This makes sense as testing scheduling policy need to consider the
effect of scheduling delay globally, not only for waking tasks.
Example of `perf timehist` report before the patch for `stress` task
competing with each other.
First column is wait time, second column sch delay, third column
runtime.
1.492060 [0000] s stress[81] 1.999 0.000 2.000 R next: stress[83]
1.494060 [0000] s stress[83] 2.000 0.000 2.000 R next: stress[81]
1.496060 [0000] s stress[81] 2.000 0.000 2.000 R next: stress[83]
1.498060 [0000] s stress[83] 2.000 0.000 1.999 R next: stress[81]
After the patch, it looks like this (note that all wait time is not zero
anymore):
1.492060 [0000] s stress[81] 1.999 1.999 2.000 R next: stress[83]
1.494060 [0000] s stress[83] 2.000 2.000 2.000 R next: stress[81]
1.496060 [0000] s stress[81] 2.000 2.000 2.000 R next: stress[83]
1.498060 [0000] s stress[83] 2.000 2.000 1.999 R next: stress[81]

Add a perf man page document that describes how to exploit AMD IBS with
Linux perf. Brief intro about IBS and simple one-liner examples will help
naive users to get started. This is not meant to be an exhaustive IBS
guide. User should refer latest AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual
for detailed description of IBS.
Usage:
$ man perf-amd-ibs
