The low level index of raw branch records for the most recent branch can
be recorded in a sample with PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX
branch_sample_type. Extend struct branch_stack to support it.
However, if the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX is not applied, only nr and
entries[] will be output by kernel. The pointer of entries[] could be
wrong, since the output format is different with new struct
branch_stack. Add a variable no_hw_idx in struct perf_sample to
indicate whether the hw_idx is output. Add get_branch_entry() to return
corresponding pointer of entries[0].
To make dummy branch sample consistent as new branch sample, add hw_idx
in struct dummy_branch_stack for cs-etm and intel-pt.
Apply the new struct branch_stack for synthetic events as well.
Extend test case sample-parsing to support new struct branch_stack.
Committer notes:
Renamed get_branch_entries() to perf_sample__branch_entries() to have
proper namespacing and pave the way for this to be moved to libperf,
eventually.
Add 'static' to that inline as it is in a header.
Add 'hw_idx' to 'struct dummy_branch_stack' in cs-etm.c to fix the build
on arm64.

The mem_info struct goes to mem-events.h and branch_info goes to
branch.h, where they belong, this way we can remove several headers from
symbols.h and trim the include dependency tree more.

We already have it, move those there from events.h so that we untangle
the header dependencies a bit more.

Current --branch-history LBR annotation displays confused data. For
example, each cycles report is duplicated on both "from" and "to"
entries.
For example:
perf report --branch-history --no-children --stdio
--2.32%--main div.c:39 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M predicted:49.7% cycles:1)
main div.c:44 (predicted:49.7% cycles:1)
main div.c:42 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:2)
compute_flag div.c:28 (cycles:2)
compute_flag div.c:27 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:1)
rand rand.c:28 (cycles:1)
rand rand.c:28 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:1)
__random random.c:298 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:297 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:9)
The cycles should be tagged only on the "from". It's for the code block
that ends with "from", not for "to".
Another issue is the "predicted:49.7%" is duplicated too (tag on both
"from" and "to").
This patch tags the branch type/flag on "to" and tag the cycles on
"from".
For example:
--2.32%--main div.c:39 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M predicted:49.7%)
main div.c:44 (cycles:1)
main div.c:42 (RET CROSS_2M)
compute_flag div.c:28 (cycles:2)
compute_flag div.c:27 (RET CROSS_2M)
rand rand.c:28 (cycles:1)
rand rand.c:28 (RET CROSS_2M)
__random random.c:298 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:297 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M)
__random random.c:295 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M)
__random random.c:295 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (RET CROSS_2M)
|
--2.23%--__random_r random_r.c:392 (cycles:9)
In this example, The "main div.c:39 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M predicted:49.7%)"
is "to" of branch and "main div.c:44 (cycles:1)" is "from" of branch.
It should be easier for understanding than before.

Create new util/branch.c and util/branch.h to contain the common branch
functions. Such as:
branch_type_count(): Count the numbers of branch types
branch_type_name() : Return the name of branch type
branch_type_stat_display(): Display branch type statistics info
branch_type_str(): Construct the branch type string.
The branch type is saved in branch_flags.
Change log:
v8: Change PERF_BR_NONE to PERF_BR_UNKNOWN.
v7: Since the common branch type name is changed (e.g. JCC->COND),
this patch is performed the modification accordingly.
v6: Move that multiline conditional code inside {} brackets.
Move branch_type_stat_display() from builtin-report.c to
branch.c.
Move branch_type_str() from callchain.c to branch.c.
v5: It's a new patch in v5 patch series.
