Create new util/branch.c and util/branch.h to contain the common branch
functions. Such as:
branch_type_count(): Count the numbers of branch types
branch_type_name() : Return the name of branch type
branch_type_stat_display(): Display branch type statistics info
branch_type_str(): Construct the branch type string.
The branch type is saved in branch_flags.
Change log:
v8: Change PERF_BR_NONE to PERF_BR_UNKNOWN.
v7: Since the common branch type name is changed (e.g. JCC->COND),
this patch is performed the modification accordingly.
v6: Move that multiline conditional code inside {} brackets.
Move branch_type_stat_display() from builtin-report.c to
branch.c.
Move branch_type_str() from callchain.c to branch.c.
v5: It's a new patch in v5 patch series.

The branch info such as predicted/cycles/... are printed at the
callchain entries.
For example: perf report --branch-history --no-children --stdio
--1.07%--main div.c:39 (predicted:52.4% cycles:1 iterations:17)
main div.c:44 (predicted:52.4% cycles:1)
main div.c:42 (cycles:2)
compute_flag div.c:28 (cycles:2)
compute_flag div.c:27 (cycles:1)
rand rand.c:28 (cycles:1)
rand rand.c:28 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:298 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:297 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (cycles:1)
But the current code is difficult to maintain and extend. This patch
refactors the code for easy maintenance.
Change log:
v6: 1. Put the multiline condition code into {} brackets in
counts_str_build()
2. Keep the original display order, that is:
predicted, abort, cycles, iterations
v5: It's a new patch in v5 patch series.

It is often useful to know the branch types while analyzing branch data.
For example, a call is very different from a conditional branch.
Currently we have to look it up in binary while the binary may later not
be available and even the binary is available but user has to take some
time. It is very useful for user to check it directly in perf report.
Perf already has support for disassembling the branch instruction to get
the x86 branch type.
To keep consistent on kernel and userspace and make the classification
more common, the patch adds the common branch type classification
in perf_event.h.
The patch only defines a minimum but most common set of branch types.
PERF_BR_UNKNOWN : unknown
PERF_BR_COND :conditional
PERF_BR_UNCOND : unconditional
PERF_BR_IND : indirect
PERF_BR_CALL : function call
PERF_BR_IND_CALL : indirect function call
PERF_BR_RET : function return
PERF_BR_SYSCALL : syscall
PERF_BR_SYSRET : syscall return
PERF_BR_COND_CALL : conditional function call
PERF_BR_COND_RET : conditional function return
The patch also adds a new field type (4 bits) in perf_branch_entry
to record the branch type.
Since the disassembling of branch instruction needs some overhead,
a new PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_TYPE_SAVE is introduced to indicate if it
needs to disassemble the branch instruction and record the branch
type.
Change log:
v10: Not changed.
v9: Not changed.
v8: Change PERF_BR_NONE to PERF_BR_UNKNOWN.
No other change.
v7: Just keep the most common branch types.
Others are removed.
v6: Not changed.
v5: Not changed. The v5 patch series just change the userspace.
v4: Comparing to previous version, the major changes are:
1. Remove the PERF_BR_JCC_FWD/PERF_BR_JCC_BWD, they will be
computed later in userspace.
2. Remove the "cross" field in perf_branch_entry. The cross page
computing will be done later in userspace.

Add header record types to pipe-mode, reusing the functions
used in file-mode and leveraging the new struct feat_fd.
For alignment, check that synthesized events don't exceed
pagesize.
Add the perf_event__synthesize_feature event call back to
process the new header records.

There are three FEAT_OP* macros:
- FEAT_OPA: for features without process record.
- FEAT_OPP: for features with process record.
- FEAT_OPF: like FEAT_OPP but to show only if show_full_info flags
is set.
To add pipe-mode headers we need yet another variation of the macros
(one to specify whether a feature generates an auxiliar record).
Instead, we redefine macros so that:
- show_full_info is specified as an argument (to remove the
FEAT_OPF variation) and,
- it always sets "process" handler (to remove the FEAT_OPA variation).
Individual process handlers can be NULLed individually.
This allows to define two variations only:
- FEAT_OPR: synthesizes auxiliar event record.
- FEAT_OPN: doesn't synthesize an auxiliar event record.

The 'perf trace' tool is suppressing args set to zero, with the
exception of string tables (strarrays), which are kinda like enums, i.e.
we have maps to go from numbers to strings.
But the 'cmd' fcntl arg requires more specialized treatment, as its
value will regulate if the next fcntl syscall arg, 'arg', should be
ignored (not used) and also how to format the syscall return (fd, file
flags, etc), so add a 'show_zero" bool to struct syscall_arg_fmt, to
regulate this more explicitely.
Will be used in a following patch with fcntl, here is just the
mechanism.

Instead of having syscall_fmt.{arg_scnprintf,arg_parm}, introduce
struct syscall_arg_fmt and have these two, paving the way for more
state to change the formatting algorithms.
For instance, in the 'fcntl' 'cmd' case it is better not to suppress
it when being zero, showing instead its name "DUPFD".
We had that in an ad-hoc way just for strarrays, but with more involved
cases like fcntl, that can't be done with just a strarray, we'll need
a ".show_zero" arg in the 'cmd' syscall_arg_fmt.

When the user doesn't specify an event with -e/--event, 'perf record'
will use as a default the "cycles" event with the highest level of
precision in perf_event_attr.precise_ip, but --no-samples, if present,
is incompatible with precise_ip != 0, so use the newly introduced
__perf_event__add_default(precise = false) to fix that:
Before:
# perf record -n usleep 1
Please consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (cycles:ppp).

If a process is in a mountns and has symbols in /tmp/perf-<pid>.map,
look first in the namespace using the tgid for the pidns that the
process might be in. If the map isn't found there, try looking in the
mountns where perf is running, and use the tgid that's appropriate for
perf's pid namespace. If all else fails, use the original pid.
This allows us to locate a symbol map file in the mount namespace, if it
was generated there. However, we also try the tool's /tmp in case it's
there instead.
