Subject: [PATCH V3 0/3] perf tools: coresight PMU recording capabilities 

This is the third revision of this set and has been rebased to [1].

It is aimed at supporting trace acquisition and decoding using the ARM
CoreSight drivers. The library is now out and accessible by anyone[2],
branch "opencsd-0v002" is stable and the one we advise to use.

Part of that branch is a "HOWTO.md" that describes how to perform on-target
trace acquisition, along with how to setup the library and perf tools for
off system trace decoding.

Here are a couple of pastebins demonstrating the solution: 

$ perf report --stdio -D [3]
$ perf report --stdio [4]

And a snippet of the output from the "cs-etm-disasem.py" script that
will be upstreamed in an upcoming patchset.
