Every architecture can provide a register list for sampling. If an
architecture doesn't support register sampling, it won't define the data
structure 'sample_reg_masks'. Consequently, any code using this
structure must be protected by the macro 'HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT'.
This patch defines a weak function, arch__sample_reg_masks(), which will
be replaced by an architecture-defined function for returning the
architecture's register list. With this refactoring, the function always
exists, the condition checking for 'HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT' is not
needed anymore, so remove it.

util/perf_regs.h includes another perf_regs.h:
#include <perf_regs.h>
Here it includes architecture specific header, for example, if we build
arm64 target, the header tools/perf/arch/arm64/include/perf_regs.h is
included.
We use this implicit way to include architecture specific header, which
is not directive; furthermore, util/perf_regs.c is coupled with the
architecture specific definitions.
This patch moves out arch specific header from util/perf_regs.h for
generalizing the 'util' folder, as a result, the source files in 'arch'
folder explicitly include architecture's perf_regs.h.

The macros PERF_REGS_MAX and PERF_REGS_MASK are architecture specific,
let's remove them from the common file util/perf_regs.c.
As a side effect, the weak functions arch__intr_reg_mask() and
arch__user_reg_mask() just return zeros, every arch defines its own
functions in the 'arch' folder for returning right values.
Note, we don't need to return intr/user register masks dynamically, this
is because these two functions are invoked during recording phase but
not decoding phase, they are always invoked on the native environment,
thus we don't need to parse them dynamically.

Add the name of the VG register so it can be used in --user-regs
The event will fail to open if the register is requested but not
available so only add it to the mask if the kernel supports sve and also
if it supports that specific register.
Committer notes:
Add conditional definition of HWCAP_SVE, as suggested by Leo Yan, to
build on older systems where this is not available in the system
headers.

Now the two OP formats are used for SDT marker argument in Arm64 ELF,
one format is general register xNUM (e.g. x1, x2, etc), another is for
using stack pointer to access local variables (e.g. [sp], [sp, 8]).
This patch adds support SDT marker argument for Arm64, it parses OP and
converts to uprobe compatible format.

Being const + weak breaks with some compilers that constant-propagate
from the weak symbol. This behavior is outside of the specification, but
in LLVM is chosen to match GCC's behavior.
LLVM's implementation was set in this patch:
f49573d1ee
A const + weak symbol is set to be weak_odr:
https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html
ODR is one definition rule, and given there is one constant definition
constant-propagation is possible. It is possible to get this code to
miscompile with LLVM when applying link time optimization. As compilers
become more aggressive, this is likely to break in more instances.
Move the definition of sample_reg_masks to the conditional part of
perf_regs.h and guard usage with HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT. This avoids the
weak symbol.
Fix an issue when HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT isn't defined from patch v1.
In v3, add perf_regs.c for architectures that HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT but
don't declare sample_regs_masks.
Further notes:
Jiri asked:
"Is this just a precaution or you actualy saw some breakage?"
Ian answered:
"We saw a breakage with clang with thinlto enabled for linking. Our
compiler team had recently seen, and were surprised by, a similar issue
and were able to dig out the weak ODR issue."
