Subject: [PATCH V2 0/5] powerpc/perf: Export processor pipeline stage cycles information
Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU) registers in powerpc exports
number of cycles elapsed between different stages in the pipeline.
Example, sampling registers in ISA v3.1.
This patchset implements kernel and perf tools support to expose
these pipeline stage cycles using the sample type PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_TYPE.
Patch 1/5 adds kernel side support to store the cycle counter
values as part of 'var2_w' and 'var3_w' fields of perf_sample_weight
structure.
Patch 2/5 adds support to make the perf report column header
strings as dynamic.
Patch 3/5 adds powerpc support in perf tools for PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT
in sample type: PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_TYPE.
Patch 4/5 adds support to present pipeline stage cycles as part of
mem-mode.
Patch 5/5 is to display the new sort dimenstion in perf report columns
only on powerpc.
Sample output on powerpc:
# perf mem record ls
# perf mem report
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
#
#
# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 11 of event 'cpu/mem-loads/'
# Total weight : 1332
# Sort order : local_weight,mem,sym,dso,symbol_daddr,dso_daddr,snoop,tlb,locked,blocked,local_ins_lat,stall_cyc
#
# Overhead Samples Local Weight Memory access Symbol Shared Object Data Symbol Data Object Snoop TLB access Locked Blocked Finish Cyc Dispatch Cyc

Changelog:
Changes from v1 -> v2
Addressed Jiri's review comments:
- Display the new sort dimension 'p_stage_cyc' only
on supported architecture.
- Check for arch specific header string for matching
sort order in patch2.
