9d9cad763c perf tools: Configurable per thread proc map processing time out
The time out to limit the individual proc map processing was hard code
to 500ms. This patch introduce a new option --proc-map-timeout to make
the time limit configurable.

3be8e2a0a5 perf kvm: Add stat support on s390
On s390, the vmexit event has a tree-like structure: between
exit_event_begin and exit_event_end several other events may happen and
with each of them refining the previous ones.

This patch adds a decoder for such events to the generic code and also
the files <asm/kvm_perf.h> and kvm-stat.c for s390.

Commands 'perf kvm stat record', 'report' and 'live' are supported.

100b907350 perf kvm: Introduce option -v for perf kvm command.
As there is no -v option for perf kvm, the all debug message for perf
kvm will nerver be printed out to user.

Example:
	# perf kvm --guestmount /tmp/guestmount/ record -a
	Not enough memory for reading perf file header

It is confusing message for newbies such as me. With this patch applied,
we can use -v option to get the detail.

Example:
	# perf kvm --guestmount /tmp/guestmount/ record -a -v
	Can't access file /tmp/guestmount//15069/proc/kallsyms
	Not enough memory for reading perf file header

8df0b4ad58 perf kvm: Update the 'record' man page entry for new --guest/--host behavior
As we have changed the default behavior of 'perf kvm' to --guest
enabled, the parts of the man page that covers the 'record' subcommand
are outdated.

This patch updates it to show the correct output with
--host/--guest/neither/both of them.

316bd98a9a perf kvm: Fix spurious '=' use in man page
As option --host and --guest request no input for it, there should not
be a '=' after them in the man page sources.

And --output expects a filename as the input, so there should be a '='
after it.

This patch removes the needless '=' after --guest and --host, and adds a
'=' after --output in perf-kvm.txt.

ed086d5b8a perf kvm: Add more detail about buildid-list in man page
As the buildid is read from /sys/kernel/notes, then if we use perf kvm
buildid-list with a perf data file captured by perf kvm record with
--guestkallsyms and --guestmodules, there is no result in output.

This patch add a explanation about it and add a limit of using perf kvm
buildid-list.

27050f530d perf tools: Add possibility to specify mmap size
Adding possibility to specify mmap size via -m/--mmap-pages
by appending unit size character (B/K/M/G) to the
number, like:
  $ perf record -m 8K ls
  $ perf record -m 2M ls

The size is rounded up appropriately to follow perf
mmap restrictions.

If no unit is specified the number provides pages as
of now, like:
  $ perf record -m 8 ls

bcf6edcd6f perf kvm: Events analysis tool
Add 'perf kvm stat' support to analyze kvm vmexit/mmio/ioport smartly

Usage:
- kvm stat
  run a command and gather performance counter statistics, it is the alias of
  perf stat

- trace kvm events:
  perf kvm stat record, or, if other tracepoints are interesting as well, we
  can append the events like this:
  perf kvm stat record -e timer:* -a

  If many guests are running, we can track the specified guest by using -p or
  --pid, -a is used to track events generated by all guests.

- show the result:
  perf kvm stat report

The output example is following:
13005
13059

total 2 guests are running on the host

Then, track the guest whose pid is 13059:
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.253 MB perf.data.guest (~11065 samples) ]
