Randy Dunlap reported that 'make NO_64BIT=1' fails to build
a pure 32-b it binary on 64-bit/64-bit x86 systems.

The reason is that we dont pass in the -m32 and GCC defaults
to -m64.

So pass it in - and also extend the warning message about libelf
dependencies - glibc-dev[el] is needed as well beyond the libelf
library.

This fixes cases where due to different umask defaults

Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!

In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
monitoring, analysis facility.

Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
less appropriate.

All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)

The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.

Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
suggested a rename.

User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
keep the size down.)

This patch has been generated via the following script:

  FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')

  sed -i \
    -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
    -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
    -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
    -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
    -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
    $FILES

  for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
    M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
    mv $N $M
  done

  FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)

  sed -i \
    -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
    -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \
    -e 's/counter/event/g' \
    -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
    $FILES

... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
is the smallest: the end of the merge window.

Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.

( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
  with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
  over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
  in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
  better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
  instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

timechart is a tool to visualize what is going on in the system.

The user makes a trace of what is going on with

 > perf record --timechart /usr/bin/some_command

and then can turn the output of this into an svg file

 > perf timechart

which then can be viewed with any SVG view; inkscape works well
enough for me.

The idea behind timechart is to create a "infinitely zoomable"
picture; something that has high level information on a 1:1 zoom
level, but which exposes more details every time you zoom into a
specific area.

First baby step towards that goal: clone the new command off of
perf trace.

Fix a few other details along the way:

 - add (minimal) perf trace documentation

 - reorder a few places

 - list perf trace in the mainporcelain list as well
   as it's a very useful utility.

This adds perf trace into the set of perf tools.

It is written to fetch the tracepoint samples from perf events
and display them, according to the events information given by
the debugfs files through the util/trace* tools.

It is a rough first shot and doesn't yet handle the cpu,
timestamps fields and some other things.

The soon coming perf trace needs to use printf with dynamically
built formats.

But we are using -Wformat=2 which is a shortcut for the
following set: -Wformat -Wformat-security -Wformat-y2k
-Wformat-nonliteral

-Wformat-nonliteral warns when it can't check formats because
they are not builtin constant strings, but we want to feature
dynamic formats. What we want instead is Wformat=2 minus
-Wformat-nonliteral, which is what this patch does.

Related to a shadowed variable bug fix Valdis Kletnieks noticed
that perf does not get built with -Wshadow, which could have
helped us avoid the bug.

So enable -Wshadow and also enable the following warnings on
perf builds, in addition to the already enabled -Wall -Wextra
-std=gnu99 warnings:

 -Wcast-align
 -Wformat=2
 -Wshadow
 -Winit-self
 -Wpacked
 -Wredundant-decls
 -Wstack-protector
 -Wstrict-aliasing=3
 -Wswitch-default
 -Wswitch-enum
 -Wno-system-headers
 -Wundef
 -Wvolatile-register-var
 -Wwrite-strings
 -Wbad-function-cast
 -Wmissing-declarations
 -Wmissing-prototypes
 -Wnested-externs
 -Wold-style-definition
 -Wstrict-prototypes
 -Wdeclaration-after-statement

And change/fix the perf code to build cleanly under GCC 4.3.2.

The list of warnings enablement is rather arbitrary: it's based
on my (quick) reading of the GCC manpages and trying them on
perf.

I categorized the warnings based on individually enabling them
and looking whether they trigger something in the perf build.
If i liked those warnings (i.e. if they trigger for something
that arguably could be improved) i enabled the warning.

If the warnings seemed to come from language laywers spamming
the build with tons of nuisance warnings i generally kept them
off. Most of the sign conversion related warnings were in
this category. (A second patch enabling some of the sign
warnings might be welcome - sign bugs can be nasty.)

I also kept warnings that seem to make sense from their manpage
description and which produced no actual warnings on our code
base. These warnings might still be turned off if they end up
being a nuisance.

I also left out a few warnings that are not supported in older
compilers.

[ Note that these changes might break the build on older
  compilers i did not test, or on non-x86 architectures that
  produce different warnings, so more testing would be welcome. ]

Improve and fix the handling of per-thread counter stats
recorded via perf record -s. Previously we only displayed
it in debug printouts (-D) and even that output was hard
to disambiguate.

I moved everything to utils/values.[ch] so that we may reuse
it in perf stat.

We get something like this now:

 #  PID   TID  cache-misses  cache-references
   4658  4659        495581           3238779
   4658  4662        498246           3236823
   4658  4663        499531           3243162

Then it'll be easy to add --pretty=raw to display a single line per thread/event.

By the way, -S was also used for --symbol... So I used -T/--thread here.

perf report: Add -T/--threads to display per-thread counter values

 We get something like this now:
 #  PID   TID  cache-misses  cache-references
   4658  4659        495581           3238779
   4658  4662        498246           3236823
   4658  4663        499531           3243162

We plan to display the callchains depending on some user-configurable
parameters.

To gather the callchains stats from the recorded stream in a fast way,
this patch introduces an ad hoc radix tree adapted for callchains and also
a rbtree to sort these callchains once we have gathered every events
from the stream.

On 64-bit powerpc, __u64 is defined to be unsigned long rather than
unsigned long long.  This causes compiler warnings every time we
print a __u64 value with %Lx.

Rather than changing __u64, we define our own u64 to be unsigned long
long on all architectures, and similarly s64 as signed long long.
For consistency we also define u32, s32, u16, s16, u8 and s8.  These
definitions are put in a new header, types.h, because these definitions
are needed in util/string.h and util/symbol.h.

The main change here is the mechanical change of __[us]{64,32,16,8}
to remove the "__".  The other changes are:

* Create types.h
* Include types.h in perf.h, util/string.h and util/symbol.h
* Add types.h to the LIB_H definition in Makefile
* Added (u64) casts in process_overflow_event() and print_sym_table()
  to kill two remaining warnings.

Make it easier to use parent filtering - default to a filtered
output. Also add the parent column so that we get collapsing but
dont display it by default.

add --no-exclude-other to override this.

On 64-bit powerpc, perf needs to be built as a 64-bit executable.
This arranges to add the -m64 flag to CFLAGS if we are running on
a 64-bit machine, indicated by the result of uname -m ending in "64".
This means that we'll use -m64 on x86_64 machines as well.
