tools lib traceevent: Handle dynamic array's element size properly
Fixing the dynamic array format field parsing.
Currently the event_read_fields function could segfault while parsing
dynamic array other than string type. The reason is the event->pevent
does not need to be set and gets dereferenced unconditionaly.
Also adding proper initialization of field->elementsize based on the
parsed dynamic type.

perf tools: Reinstate 'signed' field flag for tracepoints
For some reason the libtraceevent tracepoint-parsing code is missing
the FIELD_IS_SIGNED flag-setting code, which causes problems for the
Perl trace event binding at least, since it ends up unable to
recognize negative numbers.
Things like checking for negative return values therefore fail, causing
scripts like rwtop to instead interpret the negative return value as a
large positive value, which in turn get added to e.g. read totals with
insanely invalid results.
So set the FIELD_IS_SIGNED flag for tracepoint events that specify
"signed:1".

Actually PERF-VERSION-FILE is used only for perf.c to #define

during compiling the perf.c file will remove the need of being
included into Makefile. Hench no need to update the Makefile and no

perf sort: Separate out branch stack specific sort keys
Current perf report gets segmentation fault when a branch stack specific
sort key is provided by --sort option to a perf.data file which contains
no branch infomation. It's because those sort keys reference branch
info of a hist entry unconditionally. Maybe we can change it checks
whether such branch info is valid or not. But if the branch stacks are
not recorded, it'd be nop. Thus it'd be better to make those keys are
unselectable.
This patch separates those keys to a different dimension array, so that
if user passes such a key to a file which has no branch stack will get
following message rather than a segfault.

The ui__error/warning functions use gtk infobar or statusbar and pr_*

Moved the file_name from inside a local struct var that initialized some

variables, one of which was 'file_name', to a standalone local variable,
but forgot to initialize it explicitely to NULL, so it then got some

perf test: Add a test case for hists__{match,link}
As they are used from diff and event group report, add a test case to
verify their behaviors.
In this test I made a fake machine and two evsel. Each evsel got 10
samples (so hist entries) - 5 are common and the rests are not. So
after hists__match() both of them will have 5 entries with pair set.
And the second evsel has a collapsed entry so that the total number is 9
- I made it in order to simulate more realistic case. Thus after
hists__link the first entry will have 14 entries - 5 are common (w/
pair), 5 are unmatch (w/o pair) and 4 are dummy (w/ pair). And the
second entry will have 9 entries all have its pair.

perf hists: Link hist entries before inserting to an output tree
For matching and/or linking hist entries, they need to be sorted by
given sort keys. However current hists__match/link did this on the
output trees, so that the entries in the output tree need to be resort
before doing it.
This looks not so good since we have trees for collecting or collapsing
entries before passing them to an output tree and they're already sorted
by the given sort keys. Since we don't need to print anything at the
time of matching/linking, we can use these internal trees directly
instead of bothering with double resort on the output tree.

converted to use the internal tree and can save some lines too by

The commit [

module parameter] introduced the polling jack detection code, but it
also moved the call of snd_hda_jack_set_dirty_all() in the resume path
after resume/init ops call. This caused a regression when the jack
state has been changed during power-down (e.g. in the power save
mode). Since the driver doesn't probe the new jack state but keeps
using the cached value due to no dirty flag, the pin state remains
also as if the jack is still plugged.
The fix is simply moving snd_hda_jack_set_dirty_all() to the original

ftrace: Use only the preempt version of function tracing
The function tracer had two different versions of function tracing.
The disabling of irqs version and the preempt disable version.
As function tracing in very intrusive and can cause nasty recursion
issues, it has its own recursion protection. But the old method to
do this was a flat layer. If it detected that a recursion was happening
then it would just return without recording.
This made the preempt version (much faster than the irq disabling one)
not very useful, because if an interrupt were to occur after the
recursion flag was set, the interrupt would not be traced at all,
because every function that was traced would think it recursed on
itself (due to the context it preempted setting the recursive flag).
Now that we have a recursion flag for every context level, we
no longer need to worry about that. We can disable preemption,
set the current context recursion check bit, and go on. If an
interrupt were to come along, it would check its own context bit
and happily continue to trace.
As the preempt version is faster than the irq disable version,
there's no more reason to keep the preempt version around.
And the irq disable version still had an issue with missing
out on tracing NMI code.
Remove the irq disable function tracer version and have the
preempt disable version be the default (and only version).
