perf/x86/intel: Record branch type
Perf already has support for disassembling the branch instruction
and using the branch type for filtering. The patch just records
the branch type in perf_branch_entry.
Before recording, the patch converts the x86 branch type to
common branch type.
Change log:
v10: Set the branch_map array to be static. The previous version
has it on stack then makes the compiler to create it every
time when the function gets called.
v9: Use __ffs() to find first bit in type in common_branch_type().
It lets the code be clear.
v8: Change PERF_BR_NONE to PERF_BR_UNKNOWN.
v7: Just convert following x86 branch types to common branch types.
X86_BR_CALL -> PERF_BR_CALL
X86_BR_RET -> PERF_BR_RET
X86_BR_JCC -> PERF_BR_COND
X86_BR_JMP -> PERF_BR_UNCOND
X86_BR_IND_CALL -> PERF_BR_IND_CALL
X86_BR_ZERO_CALL -> PERF_BR_CALL
X86_BR_IND_JMP -> PERF_BR_IND
X86_BR_SYSCALL -> PERF_BR_SYSCALL
X86_BR_SYSRET -> PERF_BR_SYSRET
Others are set to PERF_BR_NONE
v6: Not changed.
v5: Just fix the merge error. No other update.
v4: Comparing to previous version, the major changes are:
1. Uses a lookup table to convert x86 branch type to common branch
type.
2. Move the JCC forward/JCC backward and cross page computing to
user space.
3. Initialize branch type to 0 in intel_pmu_lbr_read_32 and
intel_pmu_lbr_read_64
