959826ca1b pmc(3)/hwpmc(4): update supported Intel processors to rely fully on the
vendor provided pmu-events tables and sundry cleanups.

The vendor pmu-events tables provide counter descriptions, default
sample rates, event, umask, and flag values for all the counter
configuration permutations. Using this gives us:

- much simpler kernel code for the MD component
- helpful long and short event descriptions
- simpler user code
- sample rates that won't overload the system

Update man page with newer sample types and remove unused sample type.

0b5dc7f64f hwpmc: add thread id field to callchain and context switch records to allow filtering
on thread in post-processing.

To generate stacks for just ${THREADID}:

pmcstat -R ${PREFIX}.pmcstat -L ${THREADID} -z100 -G ${PREFIX}.stacks

5e53a4f90f lib: further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.
Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using mis-identified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

f5f9340b98 Add software PMC support.
New kernel events can be added at various location for sampling or counting.
This will for example allow easy system profiling whatever the processor is
with known tools like pmcstat(8).

Simultaneous usage of software PMC and hardware PMC is possible, for example
looking at the lock acquire failure, page fault while sampling on
instructions.

49874f6ea3 MFP4: Support for profiling dynamically loaded objects.
Kernel changes:

  Inform hwpmc of executable objects brought into the system by
  kldload() and mmap(), and of their removal by kldunload() and
  munmap().  A helper function linker_hwpmc_list_objects() has been
  added to "sys/kern/kern_linker.c" and is used by hwpmc to retrieve
  the list of currently loaded kernel modules.

  The unused `MAPPINGCHANGE' event has been deprecated in favour
  of separate `MAP_IN' and `MAP_OUT' events; this change reduces
  space wastage in the log.

  Bump the hwpmc's ABI version to "2.0.00".  Teach hwpmc(4) to
  handle the map change callbacks.

  Change the default per-cpu sample buffer size to hold
  32 samples (up from 16).

  Increment __FreeBSD_version.

libpmc(3) changes:

  Update libpmc(3) to deal with the new events in the log file; bring
  the pmclog(3) manual page in sync with the code.

pmcstat(8) changes:

  Introduce new options to pmcstat(8): "-r" (root fs path), "-M"
  (mapfile name), "-q"/"-v" (verbosity control).  Option "-k" now
  takes a kernel directory as its argument but will also work with
  the older invocation syntax.

  Rework string handling in pmcstat(8) to use an opaque type for
  interned strings.  Clean up ELF parsing code and add support for
  tracking dynamic object mappings reported by a v2.0.00 hwpmc(4).

  Report statistics at the end of a log conversion run depending
  on the requested verbosity level.

151392465f MFP4:
- pmcstat(8) gprof output mode fixes:

  lib/libpmc/pmclog.{c,h}, sys/sys/pmclog.h:
  + Add a 'is_usermode' field to the PMCLOG_PCSAMPLE event
  + Add an 'entryaddr' field to the PMCLOG_PROCEXEC event,
    so that pmcstat(8) can determine where the runtime loader
    /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 is getting loaded.

  sys/kern/kern_exec.c:
  + Use a local struct to group the entry address of the image being
    exec()'ed and the process credential changed flag to the exec
    handling hook inside hwpmc(4).

  usr.sbin/pmcstat/*:
  + Support "-k kernelpath", "-D sampledir".
  + Implement the ELF bits of 'gmon.out' profile generation in a new
    file "pmcstat_log.c".  Move all log related functions to this
    file.
  + Move local definitions and prototypes to "pmcstat.h"

- Other bug fixes:
  + lib/libpmc/pmclog.c: correctly handle EOF in pmclog_read().
  + sys/dev/hwpmc_mod.c: unconditionally log a PROCEXIT event to all
    attached PMCs when a process exits.
  + sys/sys/pmc.h: correct a function prototype.
  + Improve usage checks in pmcstat(8).

f263522a45 MFP4:
- Implement sampling modes and logging support in hwpmc(4).

- Separate MI and MD parts of hwpmc(4) and allow sharing of
  PMC implementations across different architectures.
  Add support for P4 (EMT64) style PMCs to the amd64 code.

- New pmcstat(8) options: -E (exit time counts) -W (counts
  every context switch), -R (print log file).

- pmc(3) API changes, improve our ability to keep ABI compatibility
  in the future.  Add more 'alias' names for commonly used events.

- bug fixes & documentation.
