Adding 'S' event/group modifier to specify that the event value/s are
read by PERF_SAMPLE_READ sample type processing, instead of the period
value offered by lower layers.
There's additional behaviour change for 'S' modifier being specified on
event group:
Currently all the events within a group makes samples. If user now
specifies 'S' within group modifier, only the leader will trigger
samples. The rest of events in the group will have sampling disabled.
And same as for single events, values of all events within the group
(including leader) are read by PERF_SAMPLE_READ sample type processing.
Following example will create event group with cycles and cache-misses
events, setting the cycles as group leader and the only event to
actually sample. Both cycles and cache-misses event period values are
read by PERF_SAMPLE_READ sample type processing with PERF_FORMAT_GROUP
read format.
Example:
$ perf record -e '{cycles,cache-misses}:S' ls
...
$ perf report --group --show-total-period --stdio
...
# Samples: 36 of event 'anon group { cycles, cache-misses }'
# Event count (approx.): 12585593

hv_kvp_daemon fails to start in current openSuSE 13.1 snapshots because
the kvp_send_buffer is too small to hold cn_msg+hv_kvp_msg, the very
first sendmsg returns with EFAULT. In addition it fixes the Network info
tab in Windows Server 2012R2 in SLES11.
Adjust the code in kvp and vss daemon to allocate the needed buffers at
runtime. To keep the code simple, the buffer_len includes also the
nlmsghdr, although only the recv_buffer needs this extra space.

This is a partial revert of Namhyung's patch
afab87b91f
perf sort: Separate out memory-specific sort keys
He wrote
For global/local weights, I'm not entirely sure to place them into the
memory dimension. But it's the only user at this time.
Well TSX is another (in fact the original) user of the flags, and it
needs them to be common. So move local/global weight back to the common
sort keys.

With programs with very large functions it can be useful to distinguish
the callgraph nodes on more than just function names. So for example if
you have multiple calls to the same function, it ends up being separate
nodes in the chain.
This patch adds a new key field to the callgraph options, that allows
comparing nodes on functions (as today, default) and addresses.
Longer term it would be nice to also handle src lines, but that would
need more changes and address is a reasonable proxy for it today.
I right now reference the global params, as there was no simple way to
register a params pointer.

The glibc calloc() function has an optimization to not explicitely
memset() very large calloc allocations that just came from mmap(),
because they are known to be zero.
This could result in the perf memcpy benchmark reading only from
the zero page, which gives unrealistic results.
Always call memset explicitly on the source area to avoid this problem.

Boris just raised another variant of building perf tools which is
broken:
$ make tools/perf
...

gcc: error: ../linux/tools/lib/lk/liblk.a: No such file or directory
The variant wasn't considered by:
107de37 perf tools: Fix build errors with O and DESTDIR make vars set
There are other variant of building perf too:
$ make -C tools perf
$ make -C tools/perf
Plus variants with O= and DESTDIR set.
This patch fixes the above and was tested with the following:
$ make O=... DESTDIR=... tools/perf
$ make O=... DESTDIR=... -C tools/ perf
$ make O=... DESTDIR=... -C tools/perf
$ make tools/perf
$ make -C tools/ perf
$ make -C tools/perf
