Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:
Kernel:
- kprobes updates: use better W^X patterns for code modifications,
improve optprobes, remove jprobes. (Masami Hiramatsu, Kees Cook)
- core fixes: event timekeeping (enabled/running times statistics)
fixes, perf_event_read() locking fixes and cleanups, etc. (Peter
Zijlstra)
- Extend x86 Intel free-running PEBS support and support x86
user-register sampling in perf record and perf script. (Andi Kleen)
Tooling:
- Completely rework the way inline frames are handled. Instead of
querying for the inline nodes on-demand in the individual tools, we
now create proper callchain nodes for inlined frames. (Milian
Wolff)
- 'perf trace' updates (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Implement a way to print formatted output to per-event files in
'perf script' to facilitate generate flamegraphs, elliminating the
need to write scripts to do that separation (yuzhoujian, Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
- Update vendor events JSON metrics for Intel's Broadwell, Broadwell
Server, Haswell, Haswell Server, IvyBridge, IvyTown, JakeTown,
Sandy Bridge, Skylake, SkyLake Server - and Goldmont Plus V1 (Andi
Kleen, Kan Liang)
- Multithread the synthesizing of PERF_RECORD_ events for
pre-existing threads in 'perf top', speeding up that phase, greatly
improving the user experience in systems such as Intel's Knights
Mill (Kan Liang)
- Introduce the concept of weak groups in 'perf stat': try to set up
a group, but if it's not schedulable fallback to not using a group.
That gives us the best of both worlds: groups if they work, but
still a usable fallback if they don't. E.g: (Andi Kleen)
- perf sched timehist enhancements (David Ahern)
- ... various other enhancements, updates, cleanups and fixes"

Remove the jprobes sample module because jprobes are deprecated.

The regs_return_value() returns "unsigned long" or "long" value. But the
retval is int type now, it may cause overflow, the log may becomes:
[ 2911.078869] do_brk returned -2003877888 and took 4620 ns to execute
This patch converts the retval to "unsigned long" type, and fixes the
overflow issue.

We prefer to use the pr_* to print out the log now, this patch converts
the printk to pr_info. In the error path, use the pr_err to replace the
printk.

Add a new module parameter which can be used as the symbol name.
Without this patch, we can only test the "_do_fork" function with this
kernel module. With this patch, the module becomes more flexible; we
can test any functions with this module with
# insmod kprobe_example.ko symbol="xxx"

Commit 3033f14ab78c ("clone: support passing tls argument via C rather
than pt_regs magic") added the tls argument for _do_fork(). This patch
adds the "tls" argument for j_do_fork to make it match _do_fork().

Commit 3033f14ab78c ("clone: support passing tls argument via C rather
than pt_regs magic") introduced _do_fork() that allowed to pass @tls
parameter.
The old do_fork() is defined only for architectures that are not ready
to use this way and do not define HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS.
Let's use _do_fork() in the kprobe examples to make them work again on
all architectures.

In commit e80d666 "flagday: kill pt_regs argument of do_fork()", the
arguments to do_fork() changed.
The example code in jprobe_example.c was not updated to match, so the
arguments inside the jprobe handler do not match reality.
Fix it by updating the arguments to match do_fork(). While we're at it
use pr_info() for brevity, and print stack_start as well for interest.

Move kprobes examples from Documentation/kprobes.txt to under samples/.
Patch originally by Randy Dunlap.
o Updated the patch to apply on 2.6.25-rc3
o Modified examples code to build on multiple architectures. Currently,
the kprobe and jprobe examples code works for x86 and powerpc
o Cleaned up unneeded #includes
o Cleaned up Kconfig per Sam Ravnborg's suggestions to fix build break
on archs that don't have kretprobes
o Implemented suggestions by Mathieu Desnoyers on CONFIG_KRETPROBES
o Included Andrew Morton's cleanup based on x86-git
o Modified kretprobe_example to act as a arch-agnostic module to
determine routine execution times:
Use 'modprobe kretprobe_example func=<func_name>' to determine
execution time of func_name in nanoseconds.
