Adrian Hunter c840cbfeff perf intel-pt: Add PSB events
Emitting a PSB+ can cause a CPU a slight delay. When doing timing analysis
of code with Intel PT, it is useful to know if a timing bubble was caused
by Intel PT or not. Add reporting of PSB events via perf script. PSB
events are printed with the existing itrace 'p' option which also prints
power and frequency changes. The PSB event contains the trace offset at
which the PSB occurs, to allow easy reference back to the PSB+ packets.

The PSB event timestamp is always the timestamp from the PSB+ TSC
packet, and the ip is always the address from the PSB+ FUP packet.

The code changes are non-trivial because the decoder must walk to the
PSB+ FUP address before outputting the PSB event.

Example:

  $ perf record -e intel_pt/cyc,psb_period=0/u uname
  Linux
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.046 MB perf.data ]
  $ perf script --itrace=p --ns

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
