Subject: [PATCH v2] perf/x86-ibs: Precise event sampling with IBS for AMD CPUs
Updated version. Level 1 and 2 are handled the same way now. Don't
drop samples in precise level 2 if rip is invalid, instead support the
PERF_EFLAGS_EXACT flag.

Subject: [PATCH] perf/x86-ibs: Precise event sampling with IBS for AMD CPUs
This patch adds support for precise event sampling with IBS. There are
two counting modes to count either cycles or micro-ops. If the
corresponding performance counter events (hw events) are setup with
the precise flag set, the request is redirected to the ibs pmu:
perf record -a -e cpu-cycles:p ... # use ibs op counting cycle count
perf record -a -e r076:p ... # same as -e cpu-cycles:p
perf record -a -e r0C1:p ... # use ibs op counting micro-ops
Each ibs sample contains a linear address that points to the
instruction that was causing the sample to trigger. With ibs we have
skid 0. Thus, ibs supports precise levels 1 and 2. Samples are marked
with the PERF_EFLAGS_EXACT flag set. In rare cases the rip is invalid
when IBS was not able to record the rip correctly. Then the
PERF_EFLAGS_EXACT flag is cleared and the rip is taken from pt_regs.
V2:
* don't drop samples in precise level 2 if rip is invalid, instead
support the PERF_EFLAGS_EXACT flag
