Add generic hp-timing support

y2038: Replace __clock_gettime with __clock_gettime64

Define HP_TIMING_NOW with clock_gettime in sysdeps/generic/hp-timing.h
if _ISOMAC is defined. Don't define __clock_gettime in bench-timing.h
since it is no longer needed.

The __clock_gettime internal function is not supporting 64 bit time on
architectures with __WORDSIZE == 32 and __TIMESIZE != 64 (like e.g. ARM 32
bit).
The __clock_gettime64 function shall be used instead in the glibc itself as
it supports 64 bit time on those systems.
This patch does not bring any changes to systems with __WORDSIZE == 64 as
for them the __clock_gettime64 is aliased to __clock_gettime (in
./include/time.h).
Add missing generic hp_timing support. It uses clock_gettime (CLOCK_MONOTONIC)
which has unspecified starting time, nano-second accuracy, and should faster on
architectures that implementes the symbol as vDSO.
Checked on aarch64-linux-gnu, x86_64-linux-gnu, and i686-linux-gnu. I also
checked the builds for all afected ABIs.
* benchtests/Makefile (USE_CLOCK_GETTIME) Remove.
* benchtests/README: Update description.
* benchtests/bench-timing.h: Default to hp-timing.
* sysdeps/generic/hp-timing.h (HP_TIMING_DIFF, HP_TIMING_ACCUM_NT,
HP_TIMING_PRINT): Remove.
(HP_TIMING_NOW): Add generic implementation.
(hp_timing_t): Change to uint64_t.
This patch refactor how hp-timing is used on loader code for statistics
report. The HP_TIMING_AVAIL and HP_SMALL_TIMING_AVAIL are removed and
HP_TIMING_INLINE is used instead to check for hp-timing avaliability.
For alpha, which only defines HP_SMALL_TIMING_AVAIL, the HP_TIMING_INLINE
is set iff for IS_IN(rtld).
Checked on aarch64-linux-gnu, x86_64-linux-gnu, and i686-linux-gnu. I also

Currently the benchtests are run with internal GLIBC headers, which is incorrect.

This patch changes the output format of the main benchmark output file
(bench.out) to an extensible format. I chose JSON over XML because in
addition to being extensible, it is also not too verbose.
Additionally it has good support in python.
The significant change I have made in terms of functionality is to put
timing information as an attribute in JSON instead of a string and to
do that, there is a separate program that prints out a JSON snippet
mentioning the type of timing (hp_timing or clock_gettime). The mean
timing has now changed from iterations per unit to actual timing per
iteration.
The TIMING_INIT macro currently sets the number of loop iterations
to 1000, which limits usefulness. Make the argument a clock
resolution value and multiply by 1000 in bench-skeleton.c instead
to allow easier reuse.
ChangeLog:
2013-09-11 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org>
* benchtests/bench-timing.h (TIMING_INIT): Rename ITERS
parameter to RES. Remove hardcoded 1000 value.
* benchtests/bench-skeleton.c (main): Pass RES parameter
to TIMING_INIT and multiply result by 1000.
Switch the string benchmarks to using bench-timing.h instead
of hp-timing.h directly. This allows the string benchmarks to
be run usefully on architectures such as ARM that do not have
support for hp-timing.h.
In order to do this the tests have been changed from timing each
individual call and picking the lowest execution time recorded to
timing a number of calls and taking the mean execution time.

HP_TIMING uses native timestamping instructions if available, thus
greatly reducing the overhead of recording start and end times for
function calls. For architectures that don't have HP_TIMING
available, we fall back to the clock_gettime bits. One may also
override this by invoking the benchmark as follows:
make USE_CLOCK_GETTIME=1 bench
and get the benchmark results using clock_gettime. One has to do
`make bench-clean` to ensure that the benchmark programs are rebuilt.
