If packet processing wants to know the packet is bound with which ETM
version, it needs to access metadata to decide that based on metadata
magic number; but we cannot simply to use CPU logic ID number as index
to access metadata sequential array, especially when system have
hotplugged off CPUs, the metadata array are only allocated for online
CPUs but not offline CPUs, so the CPU logic number doesn't match with
its index in the array.
This patch is to change tuple from traceID-CPU# to traceID-metadata,
thus it can use the tuple to retrieve metadata pointer according to
traceID.
For safe accessing metadata fields, this patch provides helper function
cs_etm__get_cpu() which is used to return CPU number according to
traceID; cs_etm_decoder__buffer_packet() is the first consumer for this
helper function.

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.

The exception packet appears as one element with 'elem_type' ==
OCSD_GEN_TRC_ELEM_EXCEPTION or OCSD_GEN_TRC_ELEM_EXCEPTION_RET, which is
present for exception entry and exit respectively. The decoder sets the
packet fields 'packet->exc' and 'packet->exc_ret' to indicate the
exception packets; but exception packets don't have a dedicated sample
type and shares the same sample type CS_ETM_RANGE with normal
instruction packets.
As a result, the exception packets are taken as normal instruction
packets and this introduces confusion in mixing different packet types.
Furthermore, these instruction range packets will be processed for
branch samples only when 'packet->last_instr_taken_branch' is true,
otherwise they will be omitted, this can introduce a mess for exception
and exception returning due to not having the complete address range
info for context switching.
To process exception packets properly, this patch introduces two new
sample types: CS_ETM_EXCEPTION and CS_ETM_EXCEPTION_RET; these two types
of packets will be handled by cs_etm__exception(). The function
cs_etm__exception() forces setting the previous CS_ETM_RANGE packet flag
'prev_packet->last_instr_taken_branch' to true, this matches well with
the program flow when the exception is trapped from user space to kernel
space, no matter if the most recent flow has branch taken or not; this
is also safe for returning to user space after exception handling.
After exception packets have their own sample type, the packet fields
'packet->exc' and 'packet->exc_ret' aren't needed anymore, so remove
them.

The CoreSight tracer driver might insert barrier packets between
different buffers, thus the decoder can spot the boundaries based on the
barrier packet; it is possible for the decoder to hit a barrier packet
and emit a NO_SYNC element, then the decoder will find a periodic
synchronisation point inside that next trace block that starts the trace
again but does not have the TRACE_ON element as indicator - usually
because this trace block has wrapped the buffer so we have lost the
original point when the trace was enabled.
In the first case it causes the insertion of a OCSD_GEN_TRC_ELEM_NO_SYNC
in the middle of the tracing stream, but as we were not handling the
NO_SYNC element properly this ends up making users miss the
discontinuity indications.
Though OCSD_GEN_TRC_ELEM_NO_SYNC is different from CS_ETM_TRACE_ON when
output from the decoder, both indicate that the trace data is
discontinuous; this patch treats OCSD_GEN_TRC_ELEM_NO_SYNC as a trace
discontinuity and generates a CS_ETM_DISCONTINUITY packet for it, so
cs-etm can handle the discontinuity for this case, finally it saves the
last trace data for the previous trace block and restart samples for the
new block.

TRACE_ON element is used at the beginning of trace, it also can be
appeared in the middle of trace data to indicate discontinuity; for
example, it's possible to see multiple TRACE_ON elements in the trace
stream if the trace is being limited by address range filtering.
Furthermore, except TRACE_ON element is for discontinuity, NO_SYNC and
EO_TRACE also can be used to indicate discontinuity, though they are
used for different scenarios for which the trace is interrupted.
This patch renames sample type CS_ETM_TRACE_ON to CS_ETM_DISCONTINUITY,
firstly the new name describes more closely the purpose of the packet;
secondly this is a preparation for other output elements which also
cause the trace discontinuity thus they can share the same one packet
type.

Added user space perf functionality to translate CoreSight traces into
instruction events with branch stack.
To invoke the new functionality, use the perf inject tool with
--itrace=il. For example, to translate the ETM trace from perf.data into
last branch records in a new inj.data file:
$ perf inject --itrace=i100000il128 -i perf.data -o perf.data.new
The 'i' parameter to itrace generates periodic instruction events. The
period between instruction events can be specified as a number of
instructions suffixed by i (default 100000).
The parameter to 'l' specifies the number of entries in the branch stack
attached to instruction events.
The 'b' parameter to itrace generates events on taken branches.
This patch also fixes the contents of the branch events used in perf
report - previously branch events were generated for each contiguous
range of instructions executed. These are fixed to generate branch
events between the last address of a range ending in an executed branch
instruction and the start address of the next range.
Based on patches by Sebastian Pop <s.pop@samsung.com> with additional fixes
and support for specifying the instruction period.
