perf/x86/intel/pt: Prevent redundant WRMSRs With recent optimizations to AUX and PT buffer management code (high order AUX allocations, opportunistic Single Range Output), it is far more likely now that the output MSRs won't need reprogramming on every sched-in. To avoid needless WRMSRs of those registers, cache their values and only write them when needed.

perf/x86/intel/pt: Opportunistically use single range output mode Most of PT implementations support Single Range Output mode, which is an alternative to ToPA that can be used for a single contiguous buffer and if we don't require an interrupt, that is, in AUX snapshot mode. Now that perf core will use high order allocations for the AUX buffer, in many cases the first condition will also be satisfied. The two most obvious benefits of the Single Range Output mode over the ToPA are: * not having to allocate the ToPA table(s), * not using the ToPA walk hardware. Make use of this functionality where available and appropriate.

perf/x86/intel/pt: Get rid of reverse lookup table for ToPA In order to quickly find a ToPA entry by its page offset in the buffer, we're using a reverse lookup table. The problem with it is that it's a large array of mostly similar pointers, especially so now that we're using high order allocations from the page allocator. Because its size is limited to whatever is the maximum for kmalloc(), it places a limit on the number of ToPA entries per buffer, and therefore, on the total buffer size, which otherwise doesn't have to be there. Replace the reverse lookup table with a simple runtime lookup. With the high order AUX allocations in place, the runtime penalty of such a lookup is much smaller and in cases where all entries in a ToPA table are of the same size, the complexity is O(1).

perf/x86/intel/pt: Allow the disabling of branch tracing Now that Intel PT supports more types of trace content than just branch tracing, it may be useful to allow the user to disable branch tracing when it is not needed. The special case is BDW, where not setting BranchEn is not supported. This is slightly trickier than necessary, because up to this moment the driver has been setting BranchEn automatically and the userspace assumes as much. Instead of reversing the semantics of BranchEn, we introduce a 'passthrough' bit, which will forego the default and allow the user to set BranchEn to their heart's content.

perf/x86/intel/pt: Add support for PTWRITE and power event tracing The Intel PT facility grew some new functionality: * PTWRITE packet carries the payload of the new PTWRITE instruction that can be used to instrument Intel PT traces with user-supplied data. Packets of this type are only generated if 'ptwrite' capability is set and PTWEn bit is set in the event attribute's config. Flow update packets (FUP) can be generated on PTWRITE packets if FUPonPTW config bit is set. Setting these bits is not allowed if 'ptwrite' capability is not set. * PWRE, PWRX, MWAIT, EXSTOP packets communicate core power management events. These depend on 'power_event_tracing' capability and are enabled by setting PwrEvtEn bit in the event attribute. Extend the driver capabilities and provide the proper sanity checks in the event validation function.
