This patch adds optional pagefault tracing support to 'perf trace'.
Using -F/--pf option user can specify whether he wants minor, major or
all pagefault events to be traced. This patch adds only live mode,
record and replace will come in a separate patch.

Per request from Pekka make --summary a summary only option meaning do
not show the individual system calls. Add another option to see all
syscalls along with the summary. In addition use 's' and 'S' as
shortcuts for the options.

Initially it tries to find a probe:vfs_getname that should be setup
with:
perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:65 pathname=result->name:string'
or with slight changes to cope with code flux in the getname_flags code.
In the future, if a "vfs:getname" tracepoint becomes available, then it
will be preferred.
This is not strictly required and more expensive method of reading the
/proc/pid/fd/ symlink will be used when the fd->path array entry is not
populated by a previous vfs_getname + open syscall ret sequence.
As with any other 'perf probe' probe the setup must be done just once
and the probe will be left inactive, waiting for users, be it 'perf
trace' of any other tool.

Adding possibility to specify mmap size via -m/--mmap-pages
by appending unit size character (B/K/M/G) to the
number, like:
$ perf record -m 8K ls
$ perf record -m 2M ls
The size is rounded up appropriately to follow perf
mmap restrictions.
If no unit is specified the number provides pages as
of now, like:
$ perf record -m 8 ls

patch adds an option to show the absolute perf_clock timestamp which is
useful when comparing output across commands (e.g., perf-trace to

Initially should look loosely like the venerable 'strace' tool, but
using the infrastructure in the perf tools to allow tracing extra
targets:
[acme@sandy linux]$ perf trace --hell
Error: unknown option `hell'
usage: perf trace <PID>
-p, --pid <pid> trace events on existing process id
--tid <tid> trace events on existing thread id
--all-cpus system-wide collection from all CPUs
--cpu <cpu> list of cpus to monitor
--no-inherit child tasks do not inherit counters
--mmap-pages <n> number of mmap data pages
--uid <user> user to profile
[acme@sandy linux]$
Those should have the same semantics as when using with 'perf record'.
It gets stuck sometimes, but hey, it works sometimes too!
In time it should support perf.data based workloads, i.e. it should have
a:
-o filename
Command line option that will produce a perf.data file that can then be
used with 'perf trace' or any of the other perf tools (script, report,
etc).
It will also eventually have the set of functionalities described in the
previous 'trace' prototype by Thomas Gleixner:
"Announcing a new utility: 'trace'"
http://lwn.net/Articles/415728/
Also planned is to have some of the features suggested in the comments
of that LWN article.

'perf trace -s list' prints a list of the supported scripting
languages. One problem with it is that it falls through and prints
the trace as well. The use of 'list' for this also makes it easy to
confuse with 'perf trace -l', used for listing available scripts. So
change 'perf trace -s list' to 'perf trace -s lang' and fixes the
fall-through problem.

This turn-key tool allows scheduler measurements to be
conducted and the results be displayed numerically.
First baby step towards that goal: clone the new command off of
perf trace.
Fix a few other details along the way:
- add (minimal) perf trace documentation
- reorder a few places
- list perf trace in the mainporcelain list as well
as it's a very useful utility.
