  perf tools: Enable event_config terms to tracepoint events (2015-09-28 17:30:07 -0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements and fixes:

- Accept a zero --itrace period, meaning "as often as possible".  In the case
  of Intel PT that is the same as a period of 1 and a unit of 'instructions'
  (i.e.  --itrace=i1i). (Adrian Hunter)

- Harmonise itrace's synthesized callchains with the existing --max-stack
  tool option (Adrian Hunter)

- Allow time to be displayed in nanoseconds in 'perf script' (Adrian Hunter)

- Fix potential loop forever when handling Intel PT timestamps (Adrian Hunter)

- Slighly improve Intel PT debug logging (Adrian Hunter)

- Warn when AUX data has been lost, just like when processing PERF_RECORD_LOST
  (Adrian Hunter)

- Further document export-to-postgresql.py script (Adrian Hunter)

- Add option to synthesize branch stack from auxtrace data (Adrian Hunter)

- Use equivalent logic to avoid using dso->kernel (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Show proper error messages when parsing bad terms for hw/sw events (He Kuang)

- Tracepoint event parsing improvements (He Kuang)

- Store tracing mountpoint for better error message (Jiri Olsa)

- Add fixdep to tools/build, bringing it closer to the kernel counterpart, from
  where it is being lifted (Jiri Olsa)
