Subject: [PATCH v5 17/20] perf: Add infrastructure for using AUX data in perf samples
AUX data can be used to annotate perf events such as performance counters
or tracepoints/breakpoints by including it in sample records when
PERF_SAMPLE_AUX flag is set. Such samples would be instrumental in debugging
and profiling by providing, for example, a history of instruction flow
leading up to the event's overflow.
To facilitate this, this patch adds code to create a kernel counter with a
ring buffer using rb_{alloc,free}_kernel() interface for each event that
needs to include AUX samples and to copy AUX data from it into the perf
data stream.
The user interface is extended to allow for this, new attribute fields are
added:
* aux_sample_type: specify PMU on which the AUX data generating event
is created;
* aux_sample_config: event config (maps to attribute's config field),
* aux_sample_size: size of the sample to be written.
This kernel counter is configured similarly to the event that is being
annotated with regards to filtering (exclude_{hv,idle,user,kernel}) and
enabled state (disabled, enable_on_exec) to make sure that the two events
are scheduled at the same time and that no out of context activity is
sampled.
