For unsupported events (e.g., H/W events when running in a VM)
perf stat currently fails with the error message:

      Error: open_counter returned with 2 (No such file or directory).
    /bin/dmesg may provide additional information.

      Fatal: Not all events could be opened.

dmesg is of no help and it is not clear as to why it fails to
open the counter. This patch changes the error message to

      Error: cache-misses event is not supported.
      Fatal: Not all events could be opened.

Merge branch 'tip/perf/core' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-2.6-trace into perf/urgent

Don found that P4 PMU reads CCCR register instead of counter
itself (in attempt to catch unflagged event) this makes P4
NMI handler to consume all NMIs it observes. So the other
NMI users such as kgdb simply have no chance to get NMI
on their hands.

Side note: at moment there is no way to run nmi-watchdog
together with perf tool. This is because both 'perf top' and
nmi-watchdog use same event. So while nmi-watchdog reserves
one event/counter for own needs there is no room for perf tool
left (there is a way to disable nmi-watchdog on boot of course).

Ming has tested this patch with the following results

 | 1. watchdog disabled
 |
 | kgdb tests on boot OK
 | perf works OK
 |
 | 2. watchdog enabled, without patch perf-x86-p4-nmi-4
 |
 | kgdb tests on boot hang
 |
 | 3. watchdog enabled, without patch perf-x86-p4-nmi-4 and do not run kgdb
 | tests on boot
 |
 | "perf top" partialy works
 |   cpu-cycles            no
 |   instructions          yes
 |   cache-references      no
 |   cache-misses          no
 |   branch-instructions   no
 |   branch-misses         yes
 |   bus-cycles            no
 |
 | 4. watchdog enabled, with patch perf-x86-p4-nmi-4 applied
 |
 | kgdb tests on boot OK
 | perf does not work, NMI "Dazed and confused" messages show up
 |

Which means we still have problems with p4 box due to 'unknown'
nmi happens but at least it should fix kgdb test cases.

From the x86_64 low level interrupt handlers, the frame pointer is
saved right after the partial pt_regs frame.

rbp is not supposed to be part of the irq partial saved registers,
but it only requires to extend the pt_regs frame by 8 bytes to
do so, plus a tiny stack offset fixup on irq exit.

This changes a bit the semantics or get_irq_entry() that is supposed
to provide only the value of caller saved registers and the cpu
saved frame. However it's a win for unwinders that can walk through
stack frames on top of get_irq_regs() snapshots.

A noticeable impact is that it makes perf events cpu-clock and
task-clock events based callchains working on x86_64.

Let's then save rbp into the irq pt_regs.

As a result with:

	perf record -e cpu-clock perf bench sched messaging
	perf report --stdio

With priorities in place and no one really understanding the difference between
DIE_NMI and DIE_NMI_IPI, just remove DIE_NMI_IPI and convert everyone to DIE_NMI.

This also simplifies default_do_nmi() a little bit.  Instead of calling the
die_notifier in both the if and else part, just pull it out and call it before
the if-statement.  This has the side benefit of avoiding a call to the ioport
to see if there is an external NMI sitting around until after the (more frequent)
internal NMIs are dealt with.

In order to consolidate the NMI die_chain events, we need to setup the priorities
for the die notifiers.

I started by defining a bunch of common priorities that can be used by the
notifier blocks.  Then I modified the notifier blocks to use the newly created
priorities.

Now that the priorities are straightened out, it should be easier to remove the
event DIE_NMI_IPI.

They are a handful of places in the code that register a die_notifier
as a catch all in case no claims the NMI.  Unfortunately, they trigger
on events like DIE_NMI and DIE_NMI_IPI, which depending on when they
registered may collide with other handlers that have the ability to
determine if the NMI is theirs or not.

The function unknown_nmi_error() makes one last effort to walk the
die_chain when no one else has claimed the NMI before spitting out
messages that the NMI is unknown.

This is a better spot for these devices to execute any code without
colliding with the other handlers.

The two drivers modified are only compiled on x86 arches I believe, so
they shouldn't be affected by other arches that may not have
DIE_NMIUNKNOWN defined.

Replace the NMI related magic numbers with symbol constants.

Memory parity error is only valid for IBM PC-AT, newer machine use
bit 7 (0x80) of 0x61 port for PCI SERR. While memory error is usually
reported via MCE. So corresponding function name and kernel log string
is changed.

But on some machines, PCI SERR line is still used to report memory
errors. This is used by EDAC, so corresponding EDAC call is reserved.

I found when specifying all tracepoints with -e to one of subcommand,
such as 'stat', the program will trigger a buffer overflow error, like
this:

*** buffer overflow detected ***: ./perf terminated
======= Backtrace: =========
/lib64/libc.so.6(__fortify_fail+0x37)[0x382cefb2c7]
....

The tracepoints are separated by comma, something like this:

$ perf stat -a -e `perf list |grep Tracepoint|awk -F'[' '{gsub(/[[:space:]]+/,"",$1);array[FNR]=$1}END{outputs=array[1];for (i=2;i<=FNR;i++){ outputs=outputs "," array[i];};print outputs}'`

The root reason of this problem is that store_event_type() is called for all
events, and will overflow the 'filename' at:

    strncat(filename, orgname, strlen(orgname));

This patch fixes it by calling store_event_type() only when the event name has
been found.
