Changes since v3:
* Scale time estimates by INSTR_PER_NS, rather than assuming 1 instruction = 1ns * Add a new commit that fixes some issues around timestamps going backwards * Use nanoseconds inside cs-etm-decoder.c, rather than storing the raw time values and converting when a sample is synthesized. This simplifies some of the code like estimating the first timestamp.
=========================== Changes since v2:
* Remove const to non-const change and copy strings where needed instead. * Use sizeof() instead of PATH_MAX * Append "will not be set accurately." to new error message * Remove unneeded stat() call * Rebase on perf/core
==========================
Changes since v1:
* Add 3 refactor commits for sysfs reading around pmu.c as suggested by Arnaldo here [1] * The dependency on [2] has now reached mainline so is no longer blocking * Rebase on perf/core

German Gomez (4): perf pmu: Add function to check if a pmu file exists perf cs_etm: Keep separate symbols for ETMv4 and ETE parameters perf cs_etm: Record ts_source in AUXTRACE_INFO for ETMv4 and ETE perf cs_etm: Set the time field in the synthetic samples
James Clark (4): perf: Remove duplication around EVENT_SOURCE_DEVICE_PATH perf: Use perf_pmu__open_file() and perf_pmu__scan_file() perf: Remove remaining duplication of bus/event_source/devices/... perf: cs-etm: Ensure that Coresight timestamps don't go backwards
