Decoder provides last instruction related information, these information
can be used for trace analysis; specifically we can get to know what
kind of branch instruction has been executed, mainly the information are
contained in three element fields:
last_i_type: this is significant type for waypoint calculation, it
indicates the last instruction is one of immediate branch instruction,
indirect branch instruction, instruction barrier (ISB), or data
barrier (DSB/DMB).
last_i_subtype: this is used for instruction sub type, it can be
branch with link, ARMv8 return instruction, ARMv8 eret instruction
(return from exception), or ARMv7 instruction which could imply
return (e.g. MOV PC, LR; POP { ,PC}).
last_instr_cond: it indicates if the last instruction was conditional.
But these three fields are not saved into cs_etm_packet struct, thus
cs-etm layer don't know related information and cannot generate sample
flags for branch instructions.
This patch add corresponding three new fields in cs_etm_packet struct
and save related value into the packet structure, it is preparation for
supporting sample flags.

With the recent print rework we now have the following problem:
pr_{warning,info,debug} expand to __pr which calls libbpf_print.
libbpf_print does va_start and calls __libbpf_pr with va_list argument.
In __base_pr we again do va_start. Because the next argument is a
va_list, we don't get correct pointer to the argument (and print noting
in my case, I don't know why it doesn't crash tbh).
Fix this by changing libbpf_print_fn_t signature to accept va_list and
remove unneeded calls to va_start in the existing users.
Alternatively, this can we solved by exporting __libbpf_pr and
changing __pr macro to (and killing libbpf_print):
{
if (__libbpf_pr)
__libbpf_pr(level, "libbpf: " fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
}

When perf is built with the annobin plugin (RHEL8 build) extra symbols
are added to its binary:
# nm perf | grep annobin | head -10

0000000000326490 t .annobin_annotate.c

00000000001bce18 t .annobin_annotate.c.hot
00000000001bce18 t .annobin_annotate.c.hot
...
Those symbols have no use for report or annotation and should be
skipped. Moreover they interfere with the DWARF unwind test on the PPC
arch, where they are mixed with checked symbols and then the test fails:
# perf test dwarf -v
59: Test dwarf unwind :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 8515
unwind: .annobin_dwarf_unwind.c:ip = 0x10dba40dc (0x2740dc)
...
got: .annobin_dwarf_unwind.c 0x10dba40dc, expecting test__arch_unwind_sample
unwind: failed with 'no error'
The annobin symbols are defined as NOTYPE/LOCAL/HIDDEN:
# readelf -s ./perf | grep annobin | head -1
40: 00000000001bce4f 0 NOTYPE LOCAL HIDDEN 13 .annobin_init.c
They can still pass the check for the label symbol. Adding check for
HIDDEN and INTERNAL (as suggested by Nick below) visibility and filter
out such symbols.
> Just to be awkward, if you are going to ignore STV_HIDDEN
> symbols then you should probably also ignore STV_INTERNAL ones
> as well... Annobin does not generate them, but you never know,
> one day some other tool might create some.

Currently, the libbpf API function libbpf_set_print()
takes three function pointer parameters for warning, info
and debug printout respectively.
This patch changes the API to have just one function pointer
parameter and the function pointer has one additional
parameter "debugging level". So if in the future, if
the debug level is increased, the function signature
won't change.

To build with python3 use:
$ make -C tools/perf PYTHON=python3
Use a non-const variable to pass the 'name' arg to
PyImport_AppendInittab(), as python2.6 has that as 'char *', which ends
up trowing this in some environments:

hist::entries_in

At the cost of an extra pointer, we can avoid the O(logN) cost of
finding the first element in the tree (smallest node), which is
something required for nearly every operation dealing with
machine->guests and threads->entries.
The conversion is straightforward, however, it's worth noticing that the
rb_erase_init() calls have been replaced by rb_erase_cached() which has
no _init() flavor, however, the node is explicitly cleared next anyway,
which was redundant until now.
