When I ran "perf kvm ... top", I encountered the following error output.

  Error: perfcounter syscall returned with -1 (Too many open files)

  Fatal: No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?

Looking into perf, I found perf opens too many directories at
initialization time, but forgets to close them. Here is the fix.

We need to set the long name to the name specified via, for instance,
'perf annotate --vmlinux /path/to/vmlinux', if not it will remain as
'[kernel.kallsyms]' and that will make annotate fail when passing this
as the vmlinux name in the call to objdump.

The way this is setup grew unwieldly and dso__load_vmlinux is the
function that should allocate space for the long name, with callers not
assuming that filenames should be allocated somehow by then (strdup,
dso__build_id_filename, etc).

For now this is the minimalistic patch, a proper fix for .36 will be
made.

So that if the kernel DSO has a build id because record inserted it in
the perf.data build id table in the header, or a BUILD_ID event was
inserted in the stream, we first look at the build id cache
($HOME/.debug/).

If we find it there, try to use it, allowing offline annotation in
addition to 'perf report'.

We were still using the pathname found on the MMAP event, that could not
be the one we used when recording, so use the build-id cache for that,
only falling back to use the pathname in the MMAP event if no build-ids
are available.

With this we now also are able to do secure, seamless offline annotation.

The changes made to support host and guest machines in a session, that
started when the 'perf kvm' tool was introduced ended up introducing a
bug where the host_machine was not having its DSOs traversed for
build-id processing.

Fix it by moving some methods to the right classes and considering the
host_machine when processing build-ids.

We have just one host on a given session, and that is the most common
setup right now, so embed a ->host_machine struct machine instance
directly in the perf_session class, check if we're looking for it before
going to the rb_tree.

This also fixes a problem found when we try to process old perf.data
files where we didn't have MMAP events for the kernel and modules and
thus don't create the kernel maps, do it in event__preprocess_sample if
it wasn't already.

for number of interrupts received, etc, but no annotation would
be performed:

Now this is what the user gets:

I noticed while writing the first test in 'perf regtest' that to
just test the symbol handling routines one needs to create a
perf session, that is a layer centered on a perf.data file,
events, etc, so I untied these layers.

This reduces the complexity for the users as the number of
parameters to most of the symbols and session APIs now was
reduced while not adding more state to all the map instances by
only having data that is needed to split the kernel (kallsyms
and ELF symtab sections) maps and do vmlinux relocation on the
main kernel map.

Only if we parsed /proc/kallsyms (or a copy found in the buildid
cache) we should set the dso long name to "[kernel.kallsyms]".

For now it just has operations to examine a given file, find its
build-id and add or remove it to/from the cache.

Useful, for instance, when adding binaries sent together with a
perf.data file, so that we can add them to the cache and have
the tools find it when resolving symbols.

It'll also manage the size of the cache like 'ccache' does.

Found while analysing a perf.data file collected on an ARM
machine where an explicitely specified vmlinux was being
disregarded.

Using this option 'perf buildid-list' will process all samples,
marking the DSOs that had some hits to list just them.

This in turn will be used by a new porcelain, 'perf archive',
that will be just a shell script to create a tarball from the
'perf buildid-list --with-hits' output and the files cached by
'perf record' in ~/.debug.

If not we end up duplicating the module DSOs because first we
insert them using the short name found in /proc/modules, then,
when processing synthesized MMAP events we add them again.

So that when we don't have a vmlinux handy we can store the
kallsyms for later use by 'perf report'.
