Subject[PATCH v7 2/7] perf/x86/intel: Record branch type
Date
Perf already has support for disassembling the branch instruction
and using the branch type for filtering. The patch just records
the branch type in perf_branch_entry.

Before recording, the patch converts the x86 branch type to
common branch type.

Change log
----------
v7: Just convert following x86 branch types to common branch types.

X86_BR_CALL -> PERF_BR_CALL
X86_BR_RET -> PERF_BR_RET
X86_BR_JCC -> PERF_BR_COND
X86_BR_JMP -> PERF_BR_UNCOND
X86_BR_IND_CALL -> PERF_BR_IND_CALL
X86_BR_ZERO_CALL -> PERF_BR_CALL
X86_BR_IND_JMP -> PERF_BR_IND
X86_BR_SYSCALL -> PERF_BR_SYSCALL
X86_BR_SYSRET -> PERF_BR_SYSRET

Others are set to PERF_BR_NONE

v6: Not changed.

v5: Just fix the merge error. No other update.

v4: Comparing to previous version, the major changes are:

1. Uses a lookup table to convert x86 branch type to common branch
type.

2. Move the JCC forward/JCC backward and cross page computing to
user space.

3. Initialize branch type to 0 in intel_pmu_lbr_read_32 and
intel_pmu_lbr_read_64
