ba77c9e111 perf: Add 'perf kmem' tool
This tool is mostly a perf version of kmemtrace-user.

The following information is provided by this tool:

 - the total amount of memory allocated and fragmentation per
   call-site

 - the total amount of memory allocated and fragmentation per
   allocation

 - total memory allocated and fragmentation in the collected
   dataset - ...

Sample output:

 # ./perf kmem record
 ^C
 # ./perf kmem --stat caller --stat alloc -l 10

c34984b2bb perf buildid-list: New plumbing command
With this we can list the buildids in a perf.data file so that
we can pipe them to other, distro specific tools that from the
buildids can figure out separate packages (foo-debuginfo) where
we can find the matching symtabs so that perf report can do its
job.

E.g:

4ea42b1814 perf: Add perf probe subcommand, a kprobe-event setup helper
Add perf probe subcommand that implements a kprobe-event setup helper
to the perf command.
This allows user to define kprobe events using C expressions (C line
numbers, C function names, and C local variables).

Usage
-----
 perf probe [<options>] -P 'PROBEDEF' [-P 'PROBEDEF' ...]

    -k, --vmlinux <file>  vmlinux/module pathname
    -P, --probe <p|r:[GRP/]NAME FUNC[+OFFS][@SRC]|@SRC:LINE [ARG ...]>
                          probe point definition, where
		p:	kprobe probe
		r:	kretprobe probe
		GRP:	Group name (optional)
		NAME:	Event name
		FUNC:	Function name
		OFFS:	Offset from function entry (in byte)
		SRC:	Source code path
		LINE:	Line number
		ARG:	Probe argument (local variable name or
			kprobe-tracer argument format is supported.)

Changes in v4:
 - Add _GNU_SOURCE macro for strndup().

Changes in v3:
 - Remove -r option because perf always be used for online kernel.
 - Check malloc/calloc results.

Changes in v2:
 - Check synthesized string length.
 - Rename perf kprobe to perf probe.
 - Use spaces for separator and update usage comment.
 - Check error paths in parse_probepoint().
 - Check optimized-out variables.

10274989fd perf: Add the timechart tool
timechart is a tool to visualize what is going on in the system.

The user makes a trace of what is going on with

 > perf record --timechart /usr/bin/some_command

and then can turn the output of this into an svg file

 > perf timechart

which then can be viewed with any SVG view; inkscape works well
enough for me.

The idea behind timechart is to create a "infinitely zoomable"
picture; something that has high level information on a 1:1 zoom
level, but which exposes more details every time you zoom into a
specific area.

0a02ad9331 perf: Add 'perf sched' tool
This turn-key tool allows scheduler measurements to be
conducted and the results be displayed numerically.

First baby step towards that goal: clone the new command off of
perf trace.

Fix a few other details along the way:

 - add (minimal) perf trace documentation

 - reorder a few places

 - list perf trace in the mainporcelain list as well
   as it's a very useful utility.

5f9c39dca5 perf tools: Add perf trace
This adds perf trace into the set of perf tools.

It is written to fetch the tracepoint samples from perf events
and display them, according to the events information given by
the debugfs files through the util/trace* tools.

It is a rough first shot and doesn't yet handle the cpu,
timestamps fields and some other things.

Example:

 perf record -f -e workqueue:workqueue_execution:record -F 1 -a
 perf trace

       kblockd/0-236   [000]     0.000000: workqueue_execution: thread=:236 func=cfq_kick_queue+0x0

5beeded123 perf_counter: Detect debugfs location
If "/sys/kernel/debug" is not a debugfs mount point, search for the debugfs
filesystem in /proc/mounts, but also allows the user to specify
'--debugfs-dir=blah' or set the environment variable: 'PERF_DEBUGFS_DIR'

f37a291c52 perf_counter tools: Add more warnings and fix/annotate them
Enable -Wextra. This found a few real bugs plus a number
of signed/unsigned type mismatches/uncleanlinesses. It
also required a few annotations

All things considered it was still worth it so lets try with
this enabled for now.

864709302a perf_counter tools: Move from Documentation/perf_counter/ to tools/perf/
Several people have suggested that 'perf' has become a full-fledged
tool that should be moved out of Documentation/. Move it to the
(new) tools/ directory.
