*	perf tools: Add branch counter knob	Kan Liang	2023-11-09	1	-0/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Add a new branch filter, "counter", for the branch counter option. It is used to mark the events which should be logged in the branch. If it is applied with the -j option, the counters of all the events should be logged in the branch. If the legacy kernel doesn't support the new branch sample type, switching off the branch counter filter. The stored counter values in each branch are displayed right after the regular branch stack information via perf report -D. Usage examples: # perf record -e "{branch-instructions,branch-misses}:S" -j any,counter Only the first event, branch-instructions, collect the LBR. Both branch-instructions and branch-misses are marked as logged events. The occurrences information of them can be found in the branch stack extension space of each branch. # perf record -e "{cpu/branch-instructions,branch_type=any/,cpu/branch-misses,branch_type=counter/}" Only the first event, branch-instructions, collect the LBR. Only the branch-misses event is marked as a logged event. Committer notes: I noticed 'perf test "Sample parsing"' failing, reported to the list and Kan provided a patch that checks if the evsel has a leader and that evsel->evlist is set, the comment in the source code further explains it.

*	perf event: Add 'simd_flags' field to 'struct perf_sample'	German Gomez	2023-03-20	1	-0/+13
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Add new field to 'struct perf_sample' to store flags related to SIMD ops. It will be used to store SIMD information from SVE and NEON when profiling using ARM SPE.

*	perf report: Support Retire Latency	Kan Liang	2023-02-03	1	-1/+4
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	The Retire Latency field is added in the var3_w of the PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT. The Retire Latency reports pipeline stall of this instruction compared to the previous instruction in cycles. That's quite useful to display the information with perf mem report. The p_stage_cyc for Power is also from the var3_w. Union the p_stage_cyc and retire_lat to share the code. Implement X86 specific codes to display the X86 specific header. Add a new sort key retire_lat for the Retire Latency.

*	perf tools: Move 'struct perf_sample' to a separate header file to ↵	Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo	2022-10-31	1	-0/+117
	disentangle headers Some places were including event.h just to get 'struct perf_sample', move it to a separate place so that we speed up a bit the build. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
