de9954b75e s390/perf: add perf register support for floating-point registers
For correct unwinding of user space processes, the floating-point
register contents are required.  For example, leaf functions might
use fp registers to temporarily store the return address.

a9fc2db0a8 s390/perf: define common DWARF register string table
Instead of defining DWARF register to string table in dwarf-regs-table.h
and dwarf-regs.c, use a common table in dwarf-regs-table.h.

Ensure that the DWARF register table is up-to-date with
http://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/ELF/zSeries/lzsabi0_s390/x1542.html.

For unwinding with libdw, also ensure to correctly setup the DWARF
register frame according to the register mappings.  Currently, libdw
supports up to 32 registers only.

f704ef4460 s390/perf: add support for perf_regs and libdw
With support for perf_regs and libdw, you can record and report
call graphs for user space programs. Simply invoke perf with
the --call-graph=dwarf command line option.
