cca03c0aeb perf stat: Fix verbose for perf stat
Error message should use stderr for verbose (-v), otherwise
message will be lost for:

 $ ./perf stat -v <cmd>  > /dev/null

For example on AMD bus-cycles event is not available so now
it looks like:

 $ ./perf stat -v -e bus-cycles ls > /dev/null
Error: counter 0, sys_perf_counter_open() syscall returned with -1 (Invalid argument)

 Performance counter stats for 'ls':

  <not counted>  bus-cycles

9cffa8d533 perf_counter tools: Define and use our own u64, s64 etc. definitions
On 64-bit powerpc, __u64 is defined to be unsigned long rather than
unsigned long long.  This causes compiler warnings every time we
print a __u64 value with %Lx.

Rather than changing __u64, we define our own u64 to be unsigned long
long on all architectures, and similarly s64 as signed long long.
For consistency we also define u32, s32, u16, s16, u8 and s8.  These
definitions are put in a new header, types.h, because these definitions
are needed in util/string.h and util/symbol.h.

The main change here is the mechanical change of __[us]{64,32,16,8}
to remove the "__".  The other changes are:

* Create types.h
* Include types.h in perf.h, util/string.h and util/symbol.h
* Add types.h to the LIB_H definition in Makefile
* Added (u64) casts in process_overflow_event() and print_sym_table()
  to kill two remaining warnings.

42202dd56c perf stat: Add feature to run and measure a command multiple times
Add the --repeat <n> feature to perf stat, which repeats a given
command up to a 100 times, collects the stats and calculates an
average and a stddev.

For example, the following oneliner 'perf stat' command runs hackbench
5 times and prints a tabulated result of all metrics, with averages
and noise levels (in percentage) printed:

 aldebaran:~/linux/linux/tools/perf> ./perf stat --repeat 5 ~/hackbench 10
 Time: 0.117
 Time: 0.108
 Time: 0.089
 Time: 0.088
 Time: 0.100

        7128590  cache-misses         #      5.730 M/sec   ( +-   7.420% )

    0.118924455  seconds time elapsed.

The goal of this feature is to allow the reliance on these accurate
statistics and to know how many times a command has to be repeated
for the noise to go down to an acceptable level.

(The -v option can be used to see a line printed out as each run progresses.)

f7b7c26e01 perf_counter tools: Propagate signals properly
Currently report and stat catch SIGINT (and others) without altering
their exit state. This means that things like:

   while :; do perf stat ./foo ; done

Loops become hard-to-interrupt, because bash never sees perf terminate
due to interruption. Fix this.
