Remove the read-first logic from atomic64_xchg() and simplify
the loop.

This function was the last user of __atomic64_read() - remove it.

Also, change the 'real_val' assumption from the somewhat quirky
1ULL << 32 value to the (just as arbitrary, but simpler) value
of 0.

atomic64_t primitives are used by a handful of drivers,
so export the APIs consistently. These were inlined
before.

Also mark atomic64_32.o a core object, so that the symbols
are available even if not linked to core kernel pieces.

Occasionally we get bugs where atomic_read or atomic_set are
used on atomic64_t variables or vice versa.  These bugs don't
generate warnings on x86 because atomic_read and atomic_set are
coded as macros rather than C functions, so we don't get any
type-checking on their arguments; similarly for atomic64_read
and atomic64_set in 64-bit kernels.

This converts them to C functions so that the arguments are
type-checked and bugs like this will get caught more easily. It
also converts atomic_cmpxchg and atomic_xchg, and
atomic64_cmpxchg and atomic64_xchg on 64-bit, so we get
type-checking on their arguments too.

Compiling a typical 64-bit x86 config, this generates no new
warnings, and the vmlinux text is 86 bytes smaller.

Linus noticed that atomic64_xchg() uses atomic_read(), which
happens to work because atomic_read() is a macro so the
.counter value gets u64-read on 32-bit too - but this is really
bogus and serious bugs are waiting to happen.

Fix atomic64_xchg() to use __atomic64_read() instead.

cmpxchg8b is a huge instruction in terms of register footprint,
we almost never want to inline it, not even within the same
code module.

GCC 4.3 still messes up for two functions, under-judging the
true cost of this instruction - so annotate two key functions
to reduce the bloat:

Linus noted (based on Eric Dumazet's numbers) that we would
probably be better off not trying an atomic_read() in
atomic64_add_return() but intead intentionally let the first
cmpxchg8b fail - to get a cache-friendly 'give me ownership
of this cacheline' transaction. That can then be followed
by the real cmpxchg8b which sets the value local to the CPU.

Linus noticed that the 32-bit version of atomic64_read() was
being overly complex with re-reading the value and doing a
retry loop over that.

Instead we can just rely on cmpxchg8b returning either the new
value or returning the current value.

We can use any 'old' value, which will be faster as it can be
loaded via immediates. Using some value that is not equal to
the real value in memory the instruction gets faster.

This also has the advantage that the CPU could avoid dirtying
the cacheline.

Linus noted that the atomic64_t primitives are all inlines
currently which is crazy because these functions have a large
register footprint anyway.

Move them to a separate file: arch/x86/lib/atomic64_32.c

Also, while at it, rename all uses of 'unsigned long long' to
the much shorter u64.

This makes the appearance of the prototypes a lot nicer - and
it also uncovered a few bugs where (yet unused) API variants
had 'long' as their return type instead of u64.

Locked instructions on two cache lines at once are painful. If
atomic64_t uses two cache lines, my test program is 10x slower.

The chance for that is significant: 4/32 or 12.5%.

Make sure an atomic64_t is 8 bytes aligned.

Among perf annotate, perf report and perf top, we can find the
common colored printing of percents according to the following
rules:

    High overhead =  > 5%, colored in red
    Mid overhead =  > 0.5%, colored in green
    Low overhead =  < 0.5%, default color

Factorize these multiple checks in a single function named
percent_color_fprintf() and also provide a get_percent_color()
for sites which print percentages and other things at the same
time.

This patch introduces a new "graph" mode which provides a
hierarchical output of factorized paths recursively sorted:

The command line has then changed.

By providing the -c option, the callchain will output in the
flat mode by default.

But you can override it:

    perf report -c graph

or

    perf report -c flat

You can also pass the abreviated mode:

    perf report -c g

or

    perf report -c gra

will both make use of the graph mode.

There is no predefined macro to create an option that can have
a custom value or a default one if none is given.

This patch provides a new helper OPT_CALLBACK_DEFAULT() which
defines such kind of option.

For example, considering an option -c, we want to get the
default value in the following cases:

    perf command -c -d
    perf command -d -c

And the foo value when it's given:

    perf command -c foo -d
    perf command -d -c foo

That's also why PARSE_OPT_LASTARG_DEFAULT is extended here to
support default values whatever the position of the option, not
only in the end.

Should it now be renamed to PARSE_OPT_ARG_DEFAULT ?

Iterating through children of a node in the callchain tree
shows something that may be quite confusing at a first glance.
The head is the children field of the parent and the list nodes
are in the brothers field of the children.

This is because the childs are linked to the parent as a list
of "brothers" using the "children" list of the parent as a
head:

  ---------------
 | Parent (head) |-------------------------------------
  ---------------                                      |
     |                                                 |
  children                                             |
     |                                                 |
  -----------               -----------                |
 | 1st child |---brother---| 2nd child |---brother-----
  -----------               -----------

This makes the following strange pattern often occuring:

 list_for_each_entry(child, &parent->children, brothers) {
        // do something with children
 }

Abstract it to chain_for_each_child() to factorize and simplify
this pattern.

The tools/perf/util/rbtree.c copy already drifted by three
csets:

 4b324126
 4c601178
 16c047ad

So remove the copy and use the lib/rbtree.c directly, sharing
the source code while still generating a separate object file,
since tools/perf uses a far more agressive -O6 switch.

This reworks the parser for event descriptors to make it more
consistent in what it accepts.  It is now structured as a
recursive descent parser for the following grammar:

events		::= event ( ("," | space) space* event )*
event		::= ( raw_event | numeric_event | symbolic_event |
		      generic_hw_event ) [ event_modifier ]
raw_event	::= "r" hex_number
numeric_event	::= number ":" number
number		::= decimal_number | "0x" hex_number | "0" octal_number
symbolic_event	::= string_from_event_symbols_array
generic_hw_event::= cache_type ( "-" ( cache_op | cache_result ) )*
event_modifier	::= ":" ( "u" | "k" | "h" )+

with the extra restriction that you can have at most one
cache_op and at most one cache_result.

We pass the current string pointer by reference (i.e. as a
const char **) to the various parsing functions so that they
can advance the pointer to indicate how much they consumed.
They return 0 if they didn't recognize the thing at the pointer
or 1 if they did (and advance the pointer past it).

This also fixes parse_aliases to take the longest matching
alias from the table, not the first one.  Otherwise "l1-data"
would match the "l1-d" alias and the "ata" would not be
consumed.

This allows event modifiers indicating what processor modes to
count in to be applied to any event, not just numeric events,
and adds a ":h" modifier to indicate counting in hypervisor
mode.  Specifying ":u" now sets both exclude_kernel and
exclude_hv, and so on.  Multiple modes can be specified, e.g.
":uk" will count in user or hypervisor mode (i.e. only
exclude_kernel will be set).

The symbol resolving has of course revealed some bugs in the
callchain tree handling. This patch fixes some of them,
including:

- inherit the children from the parents while splitting a node
- fix list range moving
- fix indexes setting in callchains
- create a child on the current node if the path doesn't match in
  the existent children (was only done on the root)
- compare using symbols when possible so that we can match a function
  using any ip inside by referring to its start address.

The practical effects are:

- remove double callchains
- fix upside down or any random order of callchains
- fix wrong paths
- fix bad hits and percentage accounts
