When the kernel is running at EL2, the PID is stored in CONTEXTIDR_EL2. So, tracing CONTEXTIDR_EL1 doesn't give us the pid of the process. Thus we should trace the VMID with VMIDOPT set to trace CONTEXTIDR_EL2 instead of VMID. Given that we have an existing config option "contextid" and this will be useful for tracing virtual machines (when we get to support virtualization). So instead, this patch adds a new option, contextid_in_vmid as a separate config. Thus on an EL2 kernel, we will have two options available for the perf tool. However, to make it easier for the user to do pid tracing, we add a new format which will default to "contextid" (on EL1 kernel) or "contextid_in_vmid" (on EL2 kernel). So that the user doesn't have to bother which EL the kernel is running.
i.e, perf record -e cs_etm/pid/u --
will always do the "pid" tracing, independent of the kernel EL.
Also, the perf tool will be updated to automatically select "pid" config instead of the "contextid" for system wide/CPU wide mode.

Nitpick: should the driver need to check the kernel running mode for the config ETM_OPT_CTXTID? I.e. if the BIT(ETM_OPT_CTXTID) is set in "attr->config", does it mean the kernel should run in EL1 mode?
Just curious, does there have a scenario that we need to set BIT ETM4_CFG_BIT_VMID but the bit ETM4_CFG_BIT_VMID_OPT is cleared? I think a bit for this, but cannot find a situation for tracing context ID based on VTTBR_EL2.VMID. So this might be not a question for us.
Thanks, Leo
