[PATCH V7 00/14] perf tools: some fixes and tweaks

[Adrian Hunter]

Hi

Here are some fixes and tweaks to perf tools (version 7).

Changes in V7:
	perf: Update perf_event_type documentation
		Proposed new patch from Peter Zijlstra
	perf: make events stream always parsable
		Adjustments due to patch above
	perf tools: tidy up sample parsing overflow checking
		Change to a single overflow function
		Amend comment
	perf tools: add a function to calculate sample event size
		New patch
	perf tools: add a sample parsing test
		Amended to use sample event size calculation

Changes in V6:
	Some checkpatch fixes

	perf: make events stream always parsable
		Add sample format comments

Changes in V5:
	Re-based to Arnaldo's tree and dropped already applied patches:
		perf tools: remove unused parameter
		perf tools: fix missing tool parameter
		perf tools: fix missing 'finished_round'
		perf tools: fix parse_events_terms() segfault on error path
		perf tools: fix new_term() missing free on error path
		perf tools: add const specifier to perf_pmu__find name parameter
		perf tools: tidy duplicated munmap code
		perf tools: validate perf event header size

	perf tools: add debug prints
		Changed to perf_event_attr__fprintf()
	perf tools: add pid to struct thread
		Always set the pid, even if a pid is already set
	perf tools: change machine__findnew_thread() to set thread pid
		Replaces: perf tools: change "machine" functions to set thread pid
	perf tools: add support for PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTFIER
		Only use PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTFIER if sample types are different
	perf tools: expand perf_event__synthesize_sample()
		New patch in preparation of a sample parsing test
	perf tools: add a sample parsing test
		New patch

Changes in V4:
	I added kernel support for matching sample types via
	PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER.  perf tools support for that required
	first fixing some other things.

	perf tools: fix parse_events_terms() freeing local variable on error path
		Dropped - covered by David Ahern
	perf tools: struct thread has a tid not a pid
		Added ack by David Ahern
	perf tools: add pid to struct thread
		Remove unused function
	perf tools: fix missing increment in sample parsing
		New patch
	perf tools: tidy up sample parsing overflow checking
		New patch
	perf tools: remove unnecessary callchain validation
		New patch
	perf tools: remove references to struct ip_event
		New patch
	perf tools: move struct ip_event
		New patch
	perf: make events stream always parsable
		New patch
	perf tools: add support for PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTFIER
		New patch

Changes in V3:
	perf tools: add pid to struct thread
		Split into 2 patches
	perf tools: fix ppid in thread__fork()
		Dropped for now

Changes in V2:
	perf tools: fix missing tool parameter
		Fixed one extra occurrence
	perf tools: fix parse_events_terms() freeing local variable on error path
		Made "freeing" code into a new function
	perf tools: validate perf event header size
		Corrected byte-swapping
	perf tools: allow non-matching sample types
		Added comments
		Fixed id_pos calculation
		id_pos/is_pos updated whenever sample_type changes
		Removed perf_evlist__sample_type()
		Added __perf_evlist__combined_sample_type()
		Added perf_evlist__combined_sample_type()
		Added perf_evlist__make_sample_types_compatible()
	Added ack's to patches acked by Jiri Olsa
