Commit 9b07e27f88b9 ("perf inject: Add jitdump mmap injection support")
incorrectly assumed that PowerPC is big endian only.

Simplify things by consolidating the define of GEN_ELF_ENDIAN and checking
for __BYTE_ORDER == __BIG_ENDIAN.

The PowerPC checks were also incorrect, they do not match what gcc
emits. We should first look for __powerpc64__, then __powerpc__.

The 4b3a3212233a ("perf hists browser: Support flat callchains") commit
over-aggressively tried to optimize callchain_node__init_have_children().

That lead to --tui mode not allowing to expand call chain elements if a
call chain element had only one parent. That's why --inverted callgraphs
looked halfway sane, but plain ones didn't.

Revert that individual optimization, it wasn't really related to the
rest of the commit.

<title>perf tools: Add missing initialization of perf_sample.cpumode in synthesized samples</title>

<content type='text'>
In 473398a21d28 ("perf tools: Add cpumode to struct perf_sample"), I
missed some places where perf_sample fields are directly initialized in
addition to what is done in perf_evsel__parse_sample(), namely when
synthesizing PERF_RECORD_{MMAP*,COMM,FORK,EXIT} for pre-existing threads
and also in intel_pt and intel_bts when synthesizing events from
processor trace, the jitdump code also was affected, fix it.

The problem was noticed with running:

  # perf record -e intel_pt//u true
  # perf script

Where the samples wouldn't get resolved because perf_sample.cpumode
would be left as zero, i.e. PERF_RECORD_MISC_CPUMODE_UNKNOWN, not
resolving as kernel, hypervisor or user cpu modes.

Commit 531d2410635c ("perf tools: Do not include stringify.h from the
kernel sources") seems to have accidentially removed the inclusion of
"util/header.h" from "arch/powerpc/util/header.c".

"util/header.h" provides the prototype for get_cpuid() and is needed to
build perf on Powerpc:

	arch/powerpc/util/header.c:17:1: error: no previous prototype for 'get_cpuid' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]

<title>perf bench: Fix detached tarball building due to missing 'perf bench memcpy' headers</title>

<content type='text'>
A change on kernel files included by the 'perf bench memcpy' code grew some new
include deps, breaking the detached tarball build:

  $ make -C tools/perf build-test
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
  - tarpkg: ./tests/perf-targz-src-pkg .
  tests/make:302: recipe for target 'tarpkg' failed
  make[1]: *** [tarpkg] Error 2
  Makefile:102: recipe for target 'build-test' failed
  make: *** [build-test] Error 2
  make: Leaving directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
  $ cat tools/perf/tarpkg
  ./tests/perf-targz-src-pkg .
    PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g05f5ec
    PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g05f5ec

  $

Add arch/*/include/asm/*features.h to tools/perf/MANIFEST so that we can
continue to use detached tarballs to build perf.

Now it builds ok, doing it manually:

  $ make help | grep perf

A change on kernel files included by the 'perf bench memcpy' code grew some new
include deps, breaking the detached tarball build:

  $ make -C tools/perf build-test
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
  - tarpkg: ./tests/perf-targz-src-pkg .
  tests/make:302: recipe for target 'tarpkg' failed
  make[1]: *** [tarpkg] Error 2
  Makefile:102: recipe for target 'build-test' failed
  make: *** [build-test] Error 2
  make: Leaving directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
  $ cat tools/perf/tarpkg
  ./tests/perf-targz-src-pkg .
    PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g05f5ec
    PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g05f5ec
  In file included from bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.S:9:0:
  bench/../../../arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S:5:29: fatal error: asm/cpufeatures.h: No such file or directory
  compilation terminated.
  mv: cannot stat ‘bench/.mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o.tmp’: No such file or directory
  make[5]: *** [bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o] Error 1
  make[5]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  make[4]: *** [bench] Error 2
  make[4]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  make[3]: *** [perf-in.o] Error 2
  make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
  $

Add arch/*/include/asm/*features.h to tools/perf/MANIFEST so that we can
continue to use detached tarballs to build perf.

Now it builds ok, doing it manually:

  $ make help | grep perf
    perf-tar-src-pkg    - Build perf-4.5.0.tar source tarball
    perf-targz-src-pkg  - Build perf-4.5.0.tar.gz source tarball
    perf-tarbz2-src-pkg - Build perf-4.5.0.tar.bz2 source tarball
    perf-tarxz-src-pkg  - Build perf-4.5.0.tar.xz source tarball
  $ ls -la perf-4.5.0.tar
  ls: cannot access perf-4.5.0.tar: No such file or directory
  $ make perf-tar-src-pkg
    TAR
    PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g32c25b
  $ ls -la perf-4.5.0.tar
  -rw-rw-r--. 1 acme acme 6318080 Mar 24 11:52 perf-4.5.0.tar
  $ mv perf-4.5.0.tar /tmp
  $ cd /tmp
  $ tar xf perf-4.5.0.tar
  $ cd perf-4.5.0/tools/perf
  $ make &gt; /dev/null
  PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g32c25b
  $ ls -la perf
  -rwxrwxr-x. 1 acme acme 14046416 Mar 24 11:53 perf
  $ ./perf --version
  perf version 4.5.g32c25b
  $ perf bench
  Usage:

<title>perf tests: Fix tarpkg build test error output redirection</title>

So we need to trow away just stdout, leaving stderr to be caught by
the build tests infrastructure, so that we can see what went wrong
when the tarpkg build test fails:

  $ make -C tools/perf build-test
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
  - tarpkg: ./tests/perf-targz-src-pkg .
  tests/make:302: recipe for target 'tarpkg' failed
  make[1]: *** [tarpkg] Error 2
  Makefile:102: recipe for target 'build-test' failed
  make: *** [build-test] Error 2
  make: Leaving directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
  $ cat tools/perf/tarpkg
  ./tests/perf-targz-src-pkg .
    PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g05f5ec
    PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g05f5ec
  In file included from bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.S:9:0:
  bench/../../../arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S:5:29: fatal error: asm/cpufeatures.h: No such file or directory
  compilation terminated.
  mv: cannot stat ‘bench/.mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o.tmp’: No such file or directory
  make[5]: *** [bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o] Error 1
  make[5]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  make[4]: *** [bench] Error 2
  make[4]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  make[3]: *** [perf-in.o] Error 2
  make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
  $

So the test flow is:

1. Run: 'make -C tools/perf build-test'

2. One of its tests failed, in this case, the 'tarpkg' one

3. Look at what went wrong, by looking at the output of that test, in
   tools/perf/tarpkg

Admittedly, this should be shortcircuited to showing what went wrong directly
from the 'make build-test' step, but lets first fix this tarpkg one and the
problem it spotted, which should be fixed by adding some extra file to the
tools/perf/MANIFEST so that detached tarballs continue being self contained and
build successfully.
