Subject: [PATCH v5 0/4] perf: AARCH64 arch support

Add AARCH64 specific support. This includes the following:
- AARCH64 perf registers definition and hooks,
- compat mode registers use, i.e. profiling a 32-bit binary on
a 64-bit system,
- unwinding using the dwarf information from the .debug_frame
section of the ELF binary,
- unwinding using the frame pointer information; in 64-bit and
compat modes.

Note: support for unwinding using the dwarf information in compat
mode requires some changes to the libunwind code. Those changes
have been submitted on the libunwind ML and are in discussion.

Tested on ARMv7, ARMv8 and x86_64 platforms. The compat mode has been
tested on ARMv8 using statically built 32-bit binaries.

Subject: [PATCH 1/4] ARM64: perf: add support for perf registers API

From: Jean Pihet <[email protected]>

This patch implements the functions required for the perf registers API,
allowing the perf tool to interface kernel register dumps with libunwind
in order to provide userspace backtracing.
Compat mode is also supported.

Only the general purpose user space registers are exported, i.e.:
PERF_REG_ARM_X0,
...
PERF_REG_ARM_X28,
PERF_REG_ARM_FP,
PERF_REG_ARM_LR,
PERF_REG_ARM_SP,
PERF_REG_ARM_PC
and not the PERF_REG_ARM_V* registers.

Subject: [PATCH 2/4] ARM64: perf: wire up perf_regs and unwind support

From: Jean Pihet <[email protected]>

This patch hooks in the perf_regs and libunwind code for ARM64.
The tools/perf/arch/arm64 is created; it contains the arch specific
code for DWARF unwinding.

Subject: [PATCH 4/4] ARM64: perf: support dwarf unwinding in compat mode

Add support for unwinding using the dwarf information in compat
mode. Using the correct user stack pointer allows perf to record
the frames correctly in the native and compat modes.

Note that although the dwarf frame unwinding works ok using
libunwind in native mode (on ARMv7 & ARMv8), some changes are
required to the libunwind code for the compat mode. Those changes
are posted separately on the libunwind mailing list.

Tested on ARMv8 platform with v8 and compat v7 binaries, the latter
are statically built.

Subject: [PATCH 3/4] ARM64: perf: add support for frame pointer unwinding in compat mode

When profiling a 32-bit application, user space callchain unwinding
using the frame pointer is performed in compat mode. The code is taken
over from the AARCH32 code and adapted to work on AARCH64.

This is look alright to me now, but there are still two blockers:

(1) Getting the libunwind code merged
(2) Splitting this into an arch/arm64 series and a tools/perf series, so
that acme can merge the latter independently (and avoid the mess we had
last time).

Anyway, for the series:

This one is independent of the kernel changes. The libunwind stuff is
under disuccsion atm, cf. libunwind ML.

Split into:
- the tools/perf change: '[PATCH] perf: ARM64: wire up perf_regs and
unwind support'
and
- the arch/arm64 changes: '[PATCH v6 0/3] perf: AARCH64 arch support'.
