It is cumbersome to manually calculate the total time spent in a given
syscall by multiplying the average value with the number of calls.

Instead, we now do this directly inside perf trace.

Note that this is also done by 'strace', which even adds a column with
relative numbers - something we could do in the future.

Example:

  perf trace -s find /some/folder > /dev/null

Without this patch, it is cumbersome to read the trace output but
ignoring the normal, potentially verbose, output of the debuggee.  One
common example is doing something like the following:

 perf trace -s find /tmp > /dev/null

Without this patch, the trace summary will be lost. Now, it will still
be printed at the end. This behavior is also applied by strace.

  and an empty message aborts the commit.

To work like strace and dereference syscall pointer args we need to
insert probes (or tracepoints) right after we copy those bytes from
userspace.

Since we're formatting the syscall args at raw_syscalls:sys_enter time,
we need to have a formatter that just stores the position where, later,
when we get the probe:vfs_getname, we can insert the pointer contents.

Now, if a probe:vfs_getname with this format is in place:

 # perf probe -l
  probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72@/home/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname)

That was, in this case, put in place with:

 # perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=filename:string'
 Added new event:
  probe:vfs_getname    (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=filename:string)

 You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1
 #

Then 'perf trace' will notice that and do the pointer -> contents
expansion:

 # trace -e open touch /tmp/bla
  0.165 (0.010 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
  0.195 (0.011 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /lib64/libc.so.6, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
  0.512 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
  0.582 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /tmp/bla, flags: CREAT|NOCTTY|NONBLOCK|WRONLY, mode: 438) = 3
 #

Roughly equivalent to strace's output:

 # strace -rT -e open touch /tmp/bla
  0.000000 open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000039>
  0.000317 open("/lib64/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000102>
  0.001461 open("/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000072>
  0.000405 open("/tmp/bla", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK, 0666) = 3 <0.000055>
  0.000641 +++ exited with 0 +++
 #

Now we need to either look for at all syscalls that are marked as
pointers and have some well known names ("filename", "pathname", etc)
and set the arg formatter to the one used for the "open" syscall in this
patch.

This implementation works for syscalls with just a string being copied
from userspace, for matching syscalls with more than one string being
copied via the same probe/trace point (vfs_getname) we need to extend
the vfs_getname probe spec to include the pointer too, but there are
some problems with that in 'perf probe' or the kernel kprobes code, need
to investigate before considering supporting multiple strings per
syscall.

We were using it as a magic number, 1024, fix that.

Eventually we need to stop doing it per line, and do it per
arg, traversing the args at output time, to avoid the memmove()
calls that will be used in the next cset to replace pointers
present at raw_syscalls:sys_enter time with its contents that
appear at probe:vfs_getname time, before raw_syscalls:sys_exit
time.

The python binding still doesn't provide symbol resolving facilities,
but the recent addition of the trace_event__register_resolver() function
made it add as a dependency the machine__resolve_kernel_addr() method,
that in turn drags all the symbol resolving code.

The problem:

  [root@zoo ~]# perf test -v python
  17: Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems      :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 6853
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  ImportError: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: machine__resolve_kernel_addr
  test child finished with -1
  ---- end ----
  Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems: FAILED!
  [root@zoo ~]#

Fix it by requiring this function to receive the resolver as a
parameter, just like pevent_register_function_resolver(), i.e. do
not explicitely refer to an object file not included in
tools/perf/util/python-ext-sources.

We use raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} events to show the syscalls, but were
using a rather lazy/inneficient way to implement our 'strace -e' equivalent:
filter out after reading the events in the ring buffer.

Deflect more work to the kernel by appending a filter expression for that,
that, together with the pid list, that is always present, if only to filter the
tracer itself, reduces pressure on the ring buffer and otherwise use
infrastructure already in place in the kernel to do early filtering.

If we use it with -v we can see the filter passed to the kernel,
for instance, for this contrieved case:

  # trace -v -e \!open,close,write,poll,recvfrom,select,recvmsg,writev,sendmsg,read,futex,epoll_wait,ioctl,eventfd --filter-pids 2189,2566,1398,2692,4475,4532

Instead of calling perf_evsel__apply_filter straight away, so that
we can, in the next patches, expand the filter with more conditions
before actually calling the ioctl to pass the end result filter to
the kernel.

Now we need to call perf_evlist__apply_filters() after the filter
is completely setup, i.e. do the ioctl calls.

The perf_evlist__apply_filters() method was already in place, because
that is the model for the other tools that receives filters in the
command line: go on setting then in the evsel->filter and only at
the end, after parsing the whole command line, apply them.

We get, as a bonus, a more expressive message that states which

The 'trace' tool was accepting any names passed and just looking if
syscalls returned via the raw_syscalls:* tracepoints were in that list,
leading to it accepting perf events and then never finding any, as those
are not valid syscall names, confusing users.

Fix it by checking each entry in the list using audit_name_to_syscall,
telling the user which entries are invalid and suggesting where to look
for valid syscall names.

E.g:

  [root@zoo ~]# trace -e open,foo,bar,close,baz
  Error: Invalid syscall bar, baz, foo
  Hint:	 try 'perf list syscalls:sys_enter_*'
  Hint:	 and: 'man syscalls'
  [root@zoo ~]#

In addition to using refcounts for the struct thread lifetime
management, we need to protect access to machine->threads from
concurrent access.

That happens in 'perf top', where a thread processes events, inserting
and deleting entries from that rb_tree while another thread decays
hist_entries, that end up dropping references and ultimately deleting
threads from the rb_tree and releasing its resources when no further
hist_entry (or other data structures, like in 'perf sched') references
it.

So the rule is the same for refcounts + protected trees in the kernel,
get the tree lock, find object, bump the refcount, drop the tree lock,
return, use object, drop the refcount if no more use of it is needed,
keep it if storing it in some other data structure, drop when releasing
that data structure.

I.e. pair "t = machine__find(new)_thread()" with a "thread__put(t)", and
"perf_event__preprocess_sample(&al)" with "addr_location__put(&al)".

The addr_location__put() one is because as we return references to
several data structures, we may end up adding more reference counting
for the other data structures and then we'll drop it at
addr_location__put() time.

This comes from the desire of having -e/--expr to have the same meaning
as for 'strace', while other perf tools use it for --event, which
'trace' honours, i.e. all perf tools have --event in common, but trace
uses -e for strace's --expr.

Clarify it in the --help output.

We were not checking in the inner event processing loop if the forked workload
had finished, which, on a busy system, may make it take a long time trying to
drain events, entering a seemingly neverending loop, waiting for the system to
get idle enough to make it drain the buffers.

Fix it by disabling the events when 'done' is true, in the inner loop, to start
draining what is in the buffers.

 Author: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
 Date:   Tue Feb 3 13:25:39 2015 -0300

    perf trace: No need to enable evsels for workload started from perf

The assumption was that whenever a workload is specified, the
attr.enable_on_exec evsel flag would be set, but that is not happening
when perf_record_opts.system_wide is set, for instance

That resulted in both perf_evlist__enable() and attr.enable_on_exec
being not called/set, which made the events to remain disabled while the
workload runs, producing no output.

Fix it,  by calling perf_evlist__enable() in the 'trace' tool
when forking and not targetting a workload started from trace

v2: Test against !target__none(), as suggested by Namhyung Kim, that is
what is used in perf_evsel__config() when deciding if the
attr.enable_on_exec flag to be set. More work is needed to cover other
cases such as opts->initial_delay.

Enable perf trace to use perf.data when it is not owned by current user
or root.

Example:

 # perf trace record ls
 # chown Yunlong.Song:Yunlong.Song perf.data
 # ls -al perf.data
 -rw------- 1 Yunlong.Song Yunlong.Song 4153101 Apr  2 15:28 perf.data
 # id
 uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),64(pkcs11)

Before this patch:

 # perf trace -i perf.data
 File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)
 # perf trace -i perf.data -f
   Error: unknown switch `f'

  usage: perf trace [<options>] [<command>]
     or: perf trace [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
     or: perf trace record [<options>] [<command>]
     or: perf trace record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

         --event <event>   event selector. use 'perf list' to list
 						  available events
         --comm            show the thread COMM next to its id
         --tool_stats      show tool stats
     -e, --expr <expr>     list of events to trace
     -o, --output <file>   output file name
     -i, --input <file>    Analyze events in file
     -p, --pid <pid>       trace events on existing process id
     -t, --tid <tid>       trace events on existing thread id
         --filter-pids <float>
  ...

As shown above, the -f option does not work at all.

After this patch:

 # perf trace -i perf.data
 File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)
 # perf trace -i perf.data -f

    perf trace: Handle multiple threads better wrt syscalls being intermixed

Introduced a bug where it considered the number of bytes output directly
to the output file when formatting the syscall entry buffer that is
stored to be finally printed at syscall exit, ending up leaving garbage
at the start of syscalls that appeared while another syscall was being
processed, in another thread. Fix it.

Currently the code skips the first field with the expectation that it is 'nr'.
But older kernels do not have the 'nr' field:

    field:int nr;   offset:8;   size:4; signed:1;

Change perf-trace to drop the field if it exists after parsing the format file.

This fixes the off-by-one problem with older kernels (e.g., RHEL6). e.g,
perf-trace shows this for write:

  1.515 ( 0.006 ms): dd/4245 write(buf: 2</dev/pts/0>, count: 140733837536224       ) = 26

where 2 is really the fd, the huge number is really the buf address, etc.  With
this patch you get the more appropriate:

  1.813 ( 0.003 ms): dd/6330 write(fd: 2</dev/pts/0>, buf: 0x7fff22fc81f0, count: 25) = 25

The intent of the -s/--summary-only option is to just show a summary of
the system calls and statistics without any of the individual events.
Commit e596663e broke that by showing the interrupted lines:

perf trace -i perf.data -s
...
     0.741 ( 0.000 ms): sleep/31316 fstat(fd: 4, statbuf: 0x7ffc75ceb830                                  ) ...
     0.744 ( 0.000 ms): sleep/31316 mmap(len: 100244, prot: READ, flags: PRIVATE, fd: 4                   ) ...
     0.747 ( 0.000 ms): perf/31315 write(fd: 3, buf: 0x7d4bb0, count: 8                                  ) ...
...

Fix by checking for the summary only option.

The bash completion does not support listing subsubcommands for 'perf
trace <TAB>', so fix it.

Example:

Before this patch:

 $ perf trace <TAB>
 $

As shown above, the subsubcommands of perf trace does not come out.

After this patch:

 $ perf trace <TAB>
 record

As shown above, the subsubcommands of perf trace can come out now.

We need to do that to stop accumulating entries in the dead_threads
linked list, i.e. we were keeping references to threads in struct hists
that continue to exist even after a thread exited and was removed from
the machine threads rbtree.

We still keep the dead_threads list, but just for debugging, allowing us
to iterate at any given point over the threads that still are referenced
by things like struct hist_entry.

sample->raw_data is guaranteed to not be 8-byte aligned because it is preceded
by the size as a u3. So accessing raw data with an extended load instruction causes
the SIGBUS. Resolve by using memcpy to a temporary variable of appropriate size.

Because we need to use ordered_events in some cases, so we will need to
first have them in a queue, order that queue, and then process the
event.

When tracing in X we get event loops due to the tracing activity, i.e.
updates to a gnome-terminal that generate syscalls for X.org, etc.

To get a more useful view of what is happening, syscall wise, system
wide, we need to filter those, like in:

 # ps ax|egrep '981|2296|1519' | grep -v egrep
   981 tty1 Ss+ 5:40 /usr/bin/Xorg :0 -background none ...
  1519 ?    Sl  2:22 /usr/bin/gnome-shell
  2296 ?    Sl  4:16 /usr/libexec/gnome-terminal-server
 #

 # trace -e write --filter-pids 981,2296,1519
    0.385 ( 0.021 ms): goa-daemon/2061 write(fd: 1</dev/null>, buf: 0x7fbeb017b000, count: 136) = 136

When this option is used the tracer pid is also filtered.

When printing just events, i.e. '--no-sys --ev some:events' it makes no
sense to waste screen space.

Before:

 # trace --no-sys --ev probe:*
 84481.704 (         ): probe:vfs_getname:(ffffffff811ed023) pathname="/etc/services")
 84481.892 (         ): probe:vfs_getname:(ffffffff811ed023) pathname="/etc/services")
 84482.230 (         ): probe:vfs_getname:(ffffffff811ed023) pathname="/etc/resolv.conf")
 84482.481 (         ): probe:vfs_getname:(ffffffff811ed023) pathname="/etc/hosts")
 85097.725 (         ): probe:vfs_getname:(ffffffff811ed023) pathname="/root"
 #

After:

 # trace --no-sys --ev probe:*
