The dwarf_getcfi() only checks .debug_frame section for CFI, but as
most binaries only have .eh_frame it'd return NULL and it makes
some variables inaccessible.

Using dwarf_getcfi_elf (along with dwarf_getelf()) allows to show and
add probe to more variables.

As Namhyung reported(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/1/89),
current perf-probe -L option doesn't handle errors in line-range
searching correctly. It causes a SEGV if an error occured in the
line-range searching.

  ----
  $ perf probe -x ./perf -v -L map__load
  Open Debuginfo file: /home/namhyung/project/linux/tools/perf/perf
  fname: util/map.c, lineno:153
  New line range: 153 to 2147483647
  path: (null)
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)
  ----

This is because line_range_inline_cb() ignores errors
from find_line_range_by_line() which means that lr->path is
already freed on the error path in find_line_range_by_line().
As a result, get_real_path() accesses the lr->path and it
causes a NULL pointer exception.

This fixes line_range_inline_cb() to handle the error correctly,
and report it to the caller.

Anyway, this just fixes a possible SEGV bug, Namhyung's patch
is also required.

The commit 5a62257a ("perf probe: Replace line_list with
intlist") replaced line_list to intlist but it has a problem that if a
same line was added again, it'd return -EEXIST rather than 1.

Since line_range_walk_cb() only checks the result being negative, it
resulted in failure or segfault sometimes.

I.e. don't drop al->filtered entries, create the hist_entries and use
its ->filtered bitmap, that is kept with the same semantics for its
bitmap, leaving the filtering to be done at the hist_entry level, i.e.
in the UIs.

This will allow zooming in/out the filters.

Instead of bailing out as soon as we find a filter that applies, go on
checking all of them so that we can zoom in/out filters.

We also need to make sure we only update al->filtered after
thread__find_addr_map(), because there is where al->filtered gets
initialized to zero.

This will increase the cost of processing when all we don't need this
toggling, but will provide flexibility for the TUI and GTK+ interfaces,
that will incur in creating the hist_entries just once.

By turning the addr_location->filtered member from a boolean to a u8
bitmap, reusing (and extending) the hist_filter enum for that.

This patch doesn't change the logic at all, as it keeps the meaning of
al->filtered !0 to mean that the entry _was_ filtered, so no change in
how this value is interpreted needs to be done at this point.

This will be soon used in upcoming patches.

Forcing the code to always search thread by pid/tid pair.

The PID value will be needed in future to determine the process thread
leader for map groups sharing.

When trying to capture perf data on a system running spejbb2013, perf
hung for about 15 minutes.  This is because it took that long to gather
about 10,000 thread maps and process them.

I don't think a user wants to wait that long.

Instead, recognize that thread maps are roughly equivalent to pid maps
and just quickly copy those instead.

To do this, I synthesize 'fork' events, this eventually calls
thread__fork() and copies the maps over.

The overhead goes from 15 minutes down to about a few seconds.

Introduce

  $ perf kvm --list-cmds

to dump a raw list of commands for use by the completion script. In
order to do this, introduce parse_options_subcommand() for handling
subcommands as a special case in the parse-options machinery.

Those functions need evsel to investigate event group and it's passed
via hpp->ptr.  However as it can be missed easily so it's better to
pass it via an argument IMHO.

Its one level up thread__find_addr_location, where it will look in
different domains for a sample: user, kernel, hypervisor, etc.

When printing the raw dump of a data file, the header.misc is
printed as a decimal.  Unfortunately, that field is a bit mask, so
it is hard to interpret as a decimal.

Print in hex, so the user can easily see what bits are set and more
importantly what type of info it is conveying.

When some of group member has 0 overhead, it printed previous percentage
instead of 0.00%.  It's because passing integer 0 as a percent rather
than double 0.0 so the remaining bits came from garbage.  The TUI and
GTK don't have this problem since they pass 0.0.

Currently if a process creates a bunch of threads using pthread_create
and then perf is run in system_wide mode, the mmaps for those threads
are not captured with a synthesized mmap event.

The reason is those threads are not visible when walking the /proc/
directory looking for /proc/<pid>/maps files.  Instead they are
discovered using the /proc/<pid>/tasks file (which the synthesized comm
event uses).

This causes problems when a program is trying to map a data address to a
tid.  Because the tid has no maps, the event is dropped.  Changing the
program to look up using the pid instead of the tid, finds the correct
maps but creates ugly hacks in the program to carry the correct tid
around.

Fix this by moving the walking of the /proc/<pid>/tasks up a level (out
of the comm function) based on Arnaldo's suggestion.

Tweaked things a bit to special case the 'full' bit and 'guest' check.
