perf intel-pt: Fix timestamp following overflow

2018-04-19T06:54:07Z

commit 91d29b288aed3406caf7c454bf2b898c96cfd177 upstream. timestamp_insn_cnt is used to estimate the timestamp based on the number of instructions since the last known timestamp. If the estimate is not accurate enough decoding might not be correctly synchronized with side-band events causing more trace errors. However there are always timestamps following an overflow, so the estimate is not needed and can indeed result in more errors. Suppress the estimate by setting timestamp_insn_cnt to zero.

perf intel-pt: Fix error recovery from missing TIP packet

2018-04-19T06:54:07Z

commit 1c196a6c771c47a2faa63d38d913e03284f73a16 upstream. When a TIP packet is expected but there is a different packet, it is an error. However the unexpected packet might be something important like a TSC packet, so after the error, it is necessary to continue from there, rather than the next packet. That is achieved by setting pkt_step to zero.

perf intel-pt: Fix overlap detection to identify consecutive buffers correctly

2018-04-19T06:54:06Z

commit 117db4b27bf08dba412faf3924ba55fe970c57b8 upstream. Overlap detection was not not updating the buffer's 'consecutive' flag. Marking buffers consecutive has the advantage that decoding begins from the start of the buffer instead of the first PSB. Fix overlap detection to identify consecutive buffers correctly.

tooling/headers: Synchronize updated s390 and x86 UAPI headers

2017-12-06T21:45:24Z

There were two trivial updates to these upstream UAPI headers: arch/s390/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h arch/s390/include/uapi/asm/kvm_perf.h arch/x86/lib/x86-opcode-map.txt Synchronize them with their tooling copies. (The x86 opcode map includes a new instruction pattern now.)
