perf script: Fix message because field list option is -F not -f (2017-06-21 11:35:53 -0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements ad fixes:

New features:

- Add support to measure SMI cost in 'perf stat' (Kan Liang)

- Add support for unwinding callchains in powerpc with libdw (Paolo Bonzini)

Fixes:

- Fix message: cpu list option is -C not -c (Adrian Hunter)

- Fix 'perf script' message: field list option is -F not -f (Adrian Hunter)

- Intel PT fixes: (Adrian Hunter)

o Fix missing stack clear
o Ensure IP is zero when state is INTEL_PT_STATE_NO_IP
o Fix last_ip usage
o Ensure never to set 'last_ip' when packet 'count' is zero
o Clear FUP flag on error
o Fix transactions_sample_type

Infrastructure:

- Intel PT cleanups/refactorings (Adrian Hunter)

o Use FUP always when scanning for an IP
o Add missing __fallthrough
o Remove redundant initial_skip checks
o Allow decoding with branch tracing disabled
o Add default config for pass-through branch enable
o Add documentation for new config terms
o Add decoder support for ptwrite and power event packets
o Add reserved byte to CBR packet payload
o Add decoder support for CBR events

- Move find_process() to the only place that uses it, skimming some
more fat from util.[ch] (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Do parameter validation earlier on fetch_kernel_version() (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Remove unused _ALL_SOURCE define (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Add sysfs__write_int function (Kan Liang)

Test results:

The first ones are container (docker) based builds of tools/perf with and
without libelf support, objtool where it is supported and samples/bpf/, ditto.
Where clang is available, it is also used to build perf with/without libelf.

Several are cross builds, the ones with -x-ARCH, and the android one, and those
may not have all the features built, due to lack of multi-arch devel packages,
available and being used so far on just a few, like
debian:experimental-x-{arm64,mipsel}.

The 'perf test' one will perform a variety of tests exercising
tools/perf/util/, tools/lib/{bpf,traceevent,etc}, as well as run perf commands
with a variety of command line event specifications to then intercept the
sys_perf_event syscall to check that the perf_event_attr fields are set up as
expected, among a variety of other unit tests.

Then there is the 'make -C tools/perf build-test' ones, that build tools/perf/
with a variety of feature sets, exercising the build with an incomplete set of
features as well as with a complete one. It is planned to have it run on each
of the containers mentioned above, using some container orchestration
infrastructure. Get in contact if interested in helping having this in place.
