Add a shell script to check that the call-graphs generated using frame
pointers (--call-graph fp) are complete and not missing leaf functions:
| $ perf test 88 -v
| 88: Check Arm64 callgraphs are complete in fp mode :
| --- start ---
| test child forked, pid 8734
| + Compiling test program (/tmp/test_program.Cz3yL)...
| + Recording (PID=8749)...
| + Stopping perf-record...
| test_program.Cz
| 728 leaf
| 753 parent
| 76c main
| test child finished with 0
| ---- end ----
| Check Arm SPE callgraphs are complete in fp mode: Ok
It's supposed to work with both unwinders:
| $ make # for libunwind (default)
| $ make NO_LIBUNWIND=1 # for libdw
Tester notes:
Ran it on N1SDP and it passes, and it fails if b9f6fbb3b2c29736 ("perf
arm64: Inject missing frames when using 'perf record --call-graph=fp'")
isn't applied.
Fixes: b9f6fbb3b2c29736 ("perf arm64: Inject missing frames when using 'perf record --call-graph=fp'")

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.
