Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v5.14-2021-07-10' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/acme/linux

Pull more perf tool updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
 "New features:

   - Enable use of BPF counters with 'perf stat --for-each-cgroup',
     using per-CPU 'cgroup-switch' events with an attached BPF program
     that does aggregation per-cgroup in the kernel instead of using
     per-cgroup perf events.

   - Add Topdown metrics L2 events as default events in 'perf stat' for
     systems having those events.

  Hardware tracing:

   - Add a config for max loops without consuming a packet in the Intel
     PT packet decoder, set via 'perf config intel-pt.max-loops=N'

  Hardware enablement:

   - Disable misleading NMI watchdog message in 'perf stat' on hybrid
     systems such as Intel Alder Lake.

   - Add a dummy event on hybrid systems to collect metadata records.

   - Add 24x7 nest metric events for the Power10 platform.

  Fixes:

   - Fix event parsing for PMUs starting with the same prefix.

   - Fix the 'perf trace' 'trace' alias installation dir.

   - Fix buffer size to report iregs in perf script python scripts,
     supporting the extended registers in PowerPC.

   - Fix overflow in elf_sec__is_text().

   - Fix 's' on source line when disasm is empty in the annotation TUI,
     accessible via 'perf annotate', 'perf report' and 'perf top'.

   - Plug leaks in scandir() returned dirent entries in 'perf test' when
     sorting the shell tests.

   - Fix --task and --stat with pipe input in 'perf report'.

   - Fix 'perf probe' use of debuginfo files by build id.

   - If a DSO has both dynsym and symtab ELF sections, read from both
     when loading the symbol table, fixing a problem processing Fedora
     32 glibc DSOs.

  Libraries:

   - Add grouping of events to libperf, from code in tools/perf,
     allowing libperf users to use that mode.

  Misc:

   - Filter plt stubs from the 'perf probe --functions' output.

   - Update UAPI header copies for asound, DRM, mman-common.h and the
     ones affected by the quotactl_fd syscall"
