Modify perf_snapshot_branch_stack_t to save some memcpy. (Andrii) 2. Minor fixes in selftests. (Andrii) Changes v3 => v4: 1. Do not reshuffle intel_pmu_disable_all().

Make MAX_BRANCH_SNAPSHOT an enum (Andrii). And rename it as PERF_MAX_BRANCH_SNAPSHOT 5. Make bpf_get_branch_snapshot similar to bpf_read_branch_records. (Andrii) 6. Move the test target function to bpf_testmod. Updated kallsyms_find_next to work properly with modules. (Andrii) Changes v2 => v3: 1. Fix the use of static_call. (Peter) 2. Limit the use to perfmon version >= 2. (Peter) 3. Modify intel_pmu_snapshot_branch_stack() to use intel_pmu_disable_all and intel_pmu_enable_all(). Changes v1 => v2: 1. Rename the helper as bpf_get_branch_snapshot; 2. Fix/simplify the use of static_call; 3. Instead of percpu variables, let intel_pmu_snapshot_branch_stack output branch records to an output argument of type perf_branch_snapshot. Branch stack can be very useful in understanding software events. For example, when a long function, e.g. sys_perf_event_open, returns an errno, it is not obvious why the function failed. Branch stack could provide very helpful information in this type of scenarios. This set adds support to read branch stack with a new BPF helper bpf_get_branch_trace(). Currently, this is only supported in Intel systems. It is also possible to support the same feaure for PowerPC. The hardware that records the branch stace is not stopped automatically on software events. Therefore, it is necessary to stop it in software soon. Otherwise, the hardware buffers/registers will be flushed. One of the key design consideration in this set is to minimize the number of branch record entries between the event triggers and the hardware recorder is stopped. Based on this goal, current design is different from the discussions in original RFC [1]: 1) Static call is used when supported, to save function pointer dereference; 2) intel_pmu_lbr_disable_all is used instead of perf_pmu_disable(), because the latter uses about 10 entries before stopping LBR. With current code, on Intel CPU, LBR is stopped after 10 branch entries after fexit triggers: ID: 0 from intel_pmu_lbr_disable_all+58 to intel_pmu_lbr_disable_all+93 ID: 1 from intel_pmu_lbr_disable_all+54 to intel_pmu_lbr_disable_all+58 ID: 2 from intel_pmu_snapshot_branch_stack+102 to intel_pmu_lbr_disable_all+0 ID: 3 from bpf_get_branch_snapshot+18 to intel_pmu_snapshot_branch_stack+0 ID: 4 from bpf_get_branch_snapshot+18 to bpf_get_branch_snapshot+0 ID: 5 from __brk_limit+474918983 to bpf_get_branch_snapshot+0 ID: 6 from __bpf_prog_enter+34 to __brk_limit+474918971 ID: 7 from migrate_disable+60 to __bpf_prog_enter+9 ID: 8 from __bpf_prog_enter+4 to migrate_disable+0 ID: 9 from bpf_testmod_loop_test+20 to __bpf_prog_enter+0 ID: 10 from bpf_testmod_loop_test+20 to bpf_testmod_loop_test+13 ID: 11 from bpf_testmod_loop_test+20 to bpf_testmod_loop_test+13 ID: 12 from bpf_testmod_loop_test+20 to bpf_testmod_loop_test+13 ID: 13 from bpf_testmod_loop_test+20 to bpf_testmod_loop_test+13 ...
