[PATCH 01/31] perf, x86: Add PEBSv2 record support

From: Andi Kleen
Date: Tue Oct 02 2012 - 19:49:16 EST

From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Add support for the v2 PEBS format. It has a superset of the v1 PEBS
fields, but has a longer record so we need to adjust the code paths.

The main advantage is the new "EventingRip" support which directly
gives the instruction, not off-by-one instruction. So with precise == 2
we use that directly and don't try to use LBRs and walking basic blocks.
This lowers the overhead significantly.

Some other features are added in later patches.
