User visible:
- Honour the kernel.perf_event_max_stack knob more precisely by not counting
PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER} when deciding when to stop adding entries to
the perf_sample->ip_callchain[] array (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Fix identation of 'stalled-backend-cycles' in 'perf stat' (Namhyung Kim)
- Update runtime using 'cpu-clock' event in 'perf stat' (Namhyung Kim)
- Use 'cpu-clock' for cpu targets in 'perf stat' (Namhyung Kim)
- Avoid fractional digits for integer scales in 'perf stat' (Andi Kleen)
- Store vdso buildid unconditionally, as it appears in callchains and
we're not checking those when creating the build-id table, so we
end up not being able to resolve VDSO symbols when doing analysis
on a different machine than the one where recording was done, possibly
of a different arch even (arm -> x86_64) (He Kuang)
Infrastructure:
- Generalize max_stack sysctl handler, will be used for configuring
multiple kernel knobs related to callchains (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Cleanups:
- Introduce DSO__NAME_KALLSYMS and DSO__NAME_KCORE, to stop using
open coded strings (Masami Hiramatsu)
