To help in debugging when the wrong offset is being used, like in:

       │13d98: ↓ jne    13dd1 <lzma_lzma_preset@@XZ_5.0+0x28e1>

That is the full line from objdump, and it seems what should be used is
13dd1, not 28e1.

Commit 0b3c2264 ("perf symbols: Fix kallsyms perf test on ppc64le")
refers struct symbol in probe_event.h, but forgets to include its
definition.  Gcc will complain about it when that definition is not
added, by sheer luck, by some other header included before
probe_event.h.

Before this patch perf panics if kptr_restrict is set to 1 and perf is
owned by root with suid set:

  $ whoami
  wangnan
  $ ls -l ./perf
  -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 19781908 Sep 21 19:29 /home/wangnan/perf
  $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
  1
  $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid
  -1
  $ ./perf record -a
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)
  $

The reason is that perf assumes it is allowed to read kptr from
/proc/kallsyms when euid is root, but in fact the kernel doesn't allow
reading kptr when euid and uid do not match with each other:

  $ cp /bin/cat .
  $ sudo chown root:root ./cat
  $ sudo chmod u+s ./cat
  $ cat /proc/kallsyms | grep do_fork
  0000000000000000 T _do_fork          <--- kptr is hidden even euid is root
  $ sudo cat /proc/kallsyms | grep do_fork
  ffffffff81080230 T _do_fork

See lib/vsprintf.c for kernel side code.

This patch fixes this problem by checking both uid and euid.

On ubuntu the internal kernel version code is different from what can
be retrived from uname:

 $ uname -r
 4.4.0-47-generic
 $ cat /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
 #define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 263192
 #define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c))
 $ cat /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include/generated/utsrelease.h
 #define UTS_RELEASE "4.4.0-47-generic"
 #define UTS_UBUNTU_RELEASE_ABI 47
 $ cat /proc/version_signature
 Ubuntu 4.4.0-47.68-generic 4.4.24

The macro LINUX_VERSION_CODE is set to 4.4.24 (263192 == 0x40418), but
`uname -r` reports 4.4.0.

This mismatch causes LINUX_VERSION_CODE macro passed to BPF script become
an incorrect value, results in magic failure in BPF loading:

 $ sudo ./buildperf/perf record -e ./tools/perf/tests/bpf-script-example.c ls
 event syntax error: './tools/perf/tests/bpf-script-example.c'
                      \___ Failed to load program for unknown reason

According to Ubuntu document (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/FAQ), the
correct kernel version can be retrived through /proc/version_signature, which
is ubuntu specific.

This patch checks the existance of /proc/version_signature, and returns
version number through parsing this file instead of uname. Version string
is untouched (value returns from uname) because `uname -r` is required
to be consistence with path of kbuild directory in /lib/module.

When it records callchains, they will always have 2 scheduler functions
(__schedule + schedule or __schedule + preempt_schedule) and get
ignored.  So it should collect 2 more functions to show the expected
number of callchains to user.

Committer Notes:

Example of final result, using the same perf.data file as in the
previous cset comment, but this time redirecting the output of 'perf
sched timehist' to a file instead of copy'n'pasting from xterm:

it'd be great omit them from the callchain.  This patch marks the
functions to be omitted by later patch.

For tracepoint events, callchains always contain certain functions.
Sometimes it'd be better to skip those functions as they have no value.

By using arch->init() to set up some regular expressions to associate
ins_ops to ARM instructions, ditching that old table that has
instructions not present on ARM.

Take advantage of having an arch->init() to hide more arm specific stuff
from the common code, like the objdump details.

The regular expressions comes from a patch written by Kim Phillips.

Some arches may want to dynamically populate the table using regular
expressions on the instruction names to associate them with a set of
parsing/formatting/etc functions (struct ins_ops), so provide a fallback
for when the ins__find() method fails.

That fall back will be able to resize the arch->instructions, setting
arch->nr_instructions appropriately, helper functions to associate an
ins_ops to an instruction name, growing the arch->instructions if needed
and resorting it are provided, all the arch specific callback needs to
do is to decide if the missing instruction should be added to
arch->instructions with a ins_ops association.

The disasm_line::name field is always equal to ins::name, being used
just to locate the instruction's ins_ops from the per-arch instructions
table.

Eliminate this duplication, nuking that field and instead make
ins__find() return an ins_ops, store it in disasm_line::ins.ops, and
keep just in disasm_line::ins.name what was in disasm_line::name, this
way we end up not keeping a reference to entries in the per-arch
instructions table.

This in turn will help supporting multiple ways to manage the per-arch
instructions table, allowing resorting that array, for instance, when
the entries will move after references to its addresses were made. The
same problem is avoided when one grows the array with realloc.

So architectures simply keeping a constant array will work as well as
architectures building the table using regular expressions or other
logic that involves resorting the table.

'perf sched timehist' provides an analysis of scheduling events.

Example usage:
    perf sched record -- sleep 1
    perf sched timehist

By default it shows the individual schedule events, including the wait
time (time between sched-out and next sched-in events for the task), the
task scheduling delay (time between wakeup and actually running) and run
time for the task:

            time    cpu  task name             wait time  sch delay   run time

Currently we display the cacheline list sorted on remote HITMs by
default.

The problem is that they might not be always counted and 'perf c2c
report' displays an empty output. Thus it's more convenient to display
and sort the cacheline list based on the total of HITMs and have the
best change to see data in the default report run.

Another step in supporting cross annotation.

The arch specific tables are put in:

   tools/perf/arch/$ARCH/annotation/instructions.c

which, so far, just plug instructions to a bunch of parsers/formatters,
but may have more as the need arises.

This is an alternative implementation to a previous attempt made by Ravi
Bangoria.

This is to cope with an ARM specific kludge introduced in the original
patch supporting ARM annotation, cfef25b8 ("perf annotate: ARM
support") that made functions with a '+' in its name to be skipped when
processing call instructions.

With this patchkit it should be possible to collect a perf.data file on
a ARM machine and then annotate it on a x86 workstation and have those
ARM kludges used.

Introduce a 'struct arch', where arch specific stuff will live, starting
with objdump's choice of comment delimitation character, that is '#' in
x86 while a ';' in arm.

This has some bits and pieces from a patch submitted by Ravi.

Create some branch counters in per callchain list entry. Each counter
is for a branch flag. For example, predicted_count counts all the
*predicted* branches. The counters get updated by processing the
callchain cursor nodes.

It also provides functions to retrieve or print the values of counters
in callchain list.

Besides the counting for branch flags, it also counts and returns the
average number of iterations.

Create a new flag show_branchflag_count in symbol_conf. The flag is used
to control if showing the branch flag counting information. The flag
depends on if the perf.data has branch data and if user chooses the
"branch-history" option in perf report command line.

Since the branch ip has been added to call stack for easier browsing,
this patch adds more branch information. For example, add a flag to
indicate if this ip is a branch, and also add with the branch flag.

Then we can know if the cursor node represents a branch and know what
the branch flag it has.

The branch history code has a loop detection pass that removes loops. It
would be nice for knowing how many loops were removed then in next
steps, we can compute out the average number of iterations.

For example:

Before remove_loops(),
entry0: from = 0x100, to = 0x200
entry1: from = 0x300, to = 0x250
entry2: from = 0x300, to = 0x250
entry3: from = 0x300, to = 0x250
entry4: from = 0x700, to = 0x800

After remove_loops()
entry0: from = 0x100, to = 0x200
entry1: from = 0x300, to = 0x250
entry2: from = 0x700, to = 0x800

The original entry2 and entry3 are removed. So the number of iterations
(from = 0x300, to = 0x250) is equal to removed number + 1 (2 + 1).

iterations = removed number + 1;
average iteractions = Sum(iteractions) / number of samples

This formula ignores other cases, for example, iterations cross multiple
buffers and one buffer contains 2+ loops. Because in practice, it's good
enough.

To write config items to a particular config file, we should know where
is each config section and item from.

Current setting functionality of perf-config use autogenerating way by
overwriting collected config items to a config file.

For example, when collecting config items from user and system config
files (i.e. ~/.perfconfig and $(sysconf)/perfconfig), perf_config_set
can contain both user and system config items.  So we should know where
each value is from to avoid merging user and system config items on user
config file.

Add setting feature that can add config variables with their values to a
config file (i.e. user or system config file) or modify config key-value
pairs in a config file.  For the syntax examples:

    perf config [<file-option>] [section.name[=value] ...]

e.g. You can set the ui.show-headers to false with

    # perf config ui.show-headers=false

If you want to add or modify several config items, you can do like

    # perf config annotate.show_nr_jumps=false kmem.default=slab

Committer notes:

Testing it:

  $ perf config -l
  top.children=true
  report.children=false
  $
  $ perf config top.children=false
  $ perf config -l
  top.children=false
  report.children=false

You can show the values for several config items as below:

    # perf config report.queue-size call-graph.record-mode

but it is necessary to more precisely check arguments, before passing
them to show_spec_config().  This validation function would be also used
when parsing config key-value pairs arguments in the near future.

Committer notes:

Testing it:

  $ perf config bla.
  The config variable does not contain a variable name: bla.
  $ perf config .bla
  The config variable does not contain a section name: .bla
  $ perf config bla.bla
