When saving the callchain on Power, the kernel conservatively saves excess
entries in the callchain. A few of these entries are needed in some cases
but not others. We should use the DWARF debug information to determine
when the entries are needed.
Eg: the value in the link register (LR) is needed only when it holds the
return address of a function. At other times it must be ignored.
If the unnecessary entries are not ignored, we end up with duplicate arcs
in the call-graphs.
Use the DWARF debug information to determine if any callchain entries
should be ignored when building call-graphs.

TODO: For split-debug info objects like glibc, we can only determine
the call-frame-address only when both .eh_frame and .debug_info
sections are available. We should be able to determin the CFA
even without the .eh_frame section.
Fix suggested by Anton Blanchard.
Thanks to valuable input on DWARF debug information from Ulrich Weigand.

Currently 'make help' message has such hint:
use "make prefix=<path> <install target>" to install to a particular
path like make prefix=/usr/local install install-doc
But this is misleading, when I specify "prefix=/usr/local", it has got no
respect at all.
This is because that, "DESTDIR" is considered first. In this case, "DESTDIR"
has an empty value, so "prefix" is honored. However, "prefix" is unconditionally
assigned to $HOME, regardless of what it is set to from command line. So our
"prefix" setting got no respect and the actual destination falls back to $HOME.
This patch fixes this issue and corrects the help message.

arch/x86/tests/regs_load.S is missing the linker note about the stack
requirements, therefore making the linker fall back to an executable
stack. As this object gets linked against the final perf binary, it'll
needlessly end up with an executable stack. Fix this by adding the
appropriate linker note.
Also add a global linker flag to prevent future regressions, as
suggested by Jiri. This way perf won't get an executable stack even if
we fail to add the .GNU-stack linker note to future assembler files.
Though, doing so might create regressions the other way around, when
(statically) linking against libraries needing an executable stack.
But, apparently, regressing in that direction is wanted as it is an
indicator of poor code quality -- or just missing linker notes.

Factor NO_LIBDW_DWARF_UNWIND makefile variable and code that selects
default DWARf post unwinder based on detected features (libdw and

If both are detected the libunwind is selected as default. Simple
'make' will try to add:
- libunwind unwinder if present
- libdw unwinder if present
- disable dwarf unwind if non of libunwind and libdw

If one of the DWARF unwind libraries is detected, message is displayed
which one (libunwind/libdw) is compiled in.
Examples:
- compile in libdw unwinder if present:
$ make NO_LIBUNWIND=1
- compile in libdw (with libdw installation directory) unwinder if present:

Currently the we display all detected features/libraries by following
rules:
- if one of the features is missing
- if it's build from clean tree
This patch changes changes this behavior in several ways.
- We no longer display all detected features, only detected libraries
are displayed by default:
$ make
BUILD: Doing 'make -j4' parallel build
Auto-detecting system features:
... dwarf: [ on ]
... glibc: [ on ]
... gtk2: [ on ]
... libaudit: [ on ]
... libbfd: [ on ]
... libelf: [ on ]
... libnuma: [ on ]
... libperl: [ on ]
... libpython: [ on ]
... libslang: [ on ]
... libunwind: [ on ]
The assumption is, that above libraries are the most interesting part
of the detection, while we don't care much about detection of on-exit
support.
- If all above libraries are detected, the default is not shown on
subsequent builds.
- If one of the above libraries is missing, the detection output is
forced.
- The features status is stored in PERF-FEATURES file and the detection
output is forced in case the there's difference between the file
contents and currently detected features.
- If you want to see all detected features, you can use VF=1 make
variable, that forces the detected features output.

The plugindir_SQ definition contains $(prefix) which is not needed as
the $(libdir) definition already contains prefix in it. This leads to
the path including an extra prefix in it, e.g. /usr/usr/lib64.
The -DPLUGIN_DIR defintion includes DESTDIR. This is incorrect, as it
sets the plugin search path to include the value of DESTDIR. DESTDIR is
a mechanism to install in a non-standard location such as a chroot or an
RPM build root. In the RPM case, this leads to the search path being
incorrect after the resulting RPM is installed (or in some cases an RPM
build failure).
Remove both of these unnecessary inclusions.

Currently the feature-checks Makefile does not inherit $(CC), and calls
cc rather than $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc. Thus the feature checks invoke the
native toolchain rather than the cross toolchain, and can identify
features as available when they are not. This can break the build.
Additionally the native pkg-config is always called as opposed to
$(CROSS_COMPILE)pkg-config, so the wrong flags and paths may be passed
to the cross compiler.
This patch passes CROSS_COMPILE down to the feature-checks Makefile, and
forces its use. Additionally pkg-config is replaced with
$(CROSS_COMPILE)pkg-config via a new $(PKG_CONFIG) variable. This patch
has been build tested on x86_64 and arm.

Set feature-libunwind-debug-frame. We don't want it in
CORE_FEATURE_TESTS because it's not the generic case, but we
need to set it in the !feature-libunwind case.
Also, because x86 distributions typically don't have
dwarf_find_debug_frame() unwinding method:
test-libunwind-debug-frame.c:(.text+0x31): undefined reference to `_Ux86_64_dwarf_find_debug_frame'

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
"Included in this series are:
1. BE8 (modern big endian) changes for ARM from Ben Dooks
2. big.Little support from Nicolas Pitre and Dave Martin
3. support for LPAE systems with all system memory above 4GB
4. Perf updates from Will Deacon
5. Additional prefetching and other performance improvements from Will.
6. Neon-optimised AES implementation fro Ard.
7. A number of smaller fixes scattered around the place.
There is a rather horrid merge conflict in tools/perf - I was never
notified of the conflict because it originally occurred between Will's
tree and other stuff. Consequently I have a resolution which Will
forwarded me, which I'll forward on immediately after sending this
mail.
The other notable thing is I'm expecting some build breakage in the
crypto stuff on ARM only with Ard's AES patches. These were merged
into a stable git branch which others had already pulled, so there's
little I can do about this. The problem is caused because these
patches have a dependency on some code in the crypto git tree - I
tried requesting a branch I can pull to resolve these, and all I got
each time from the crypto people was "we'll revert our patches then"
which would only make things worse since I still don't have the
dependent patches. I've no idea what's going on there or how to
resolve that, and since I can't split these patches from the rest of
this pull request, I'm rather stuck with pushing this as-is or
reverting Ard's patches.
Since it should "come out in the wash" I've left them in - the only
build problems they seem to cause at the moment are with randconfigs,
and since it's a new feature anyway. However, if by -rc1 the
dependencies aren't in, I think it'd be best to revert Ard's patches"
I resolved the perf conflict roughly as per the patch sent by Russell,
but there may be some differences. Any errors are likely mine. Let's
see how the crypto issues work out..
