perf: Add branch stack counters
Currently, the additional information of a branch entry is stored in a
u64 space. With more and more information added, the space is running
out. For example, the information of occurrences of events will be added
for each branch.
Two places were suggested to append the counters.
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/
One place is right after the flags of each branch entry. It changes the
existing struct perf_branch_entry. The later ARCH specific
implementation has to be really careful to consistently pick
the right struct.
The other place is right after the entire struct perf_branch_stack.
The disadvantage is that the pointer of the extra space has to be
recorded. The common interface perf_sample_save_brstack() has to be
updated.
The latter is much straightforward, and should be easily understood and
maintained. It is implemented in the patch.
Add a new branch sample type, PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_COUNTERS, to indicate
the event which is recorded in the branch info.
The "u64 counters" may store the occurrences of several events. The
information regarding the number of events/counters and the width of
each counter should be exposed via sysfs as a reference for the perf
tool. Define the branch_counter_nr and branch_counter_width ABI here.
The support will be implemented later in the Intel-specific patch.

docs: ABI: sysfs-bus-event_source-devices: Document sysfs caps entry for PMU
Details is added about "caps" attribute group in the ABI documentation.
This is used to expose some of the PMU attributes in "caps"
directory under : /sys/bus/event_source/devices/<dev>/. The dev/caps
will contain information about features that platform specific PMU
supports.
