Currrently the are 2 problems with pre-filtering:

1. It is not possible to add/remove a task (mm) after uprobe_register()

2. A forked child inherits all breakpoints and uprobe_consumer can not
   control this.

This patch does the first step to improve the filtering. handler_chain()
removes the breakpoints installed by this uprobe from current->mm if all
handlers return UPROBE_HANDLER_REMOVE.

Note that handler_chain() relies on ->register_rwsem to avoid the race
with uprobe_register/unregister which can add/del a consumer, or even
remove and then insert the new uprobe at the same address.

Perhaps we will add uprobe_apply_mm(uprobe, mm, is_register) and teach
copy_mm() to do filter(UPROBE_FILTER_FORK), but I think this change makes
sense anyway.

Note: instead of checking the retcode from uc->handler, we could add
uc->filter(UPROBE_FILTER_BPHIT). But I think this is not optimal to
call 2 hooks in a row. This buys nothing, and if handler/filter do
something nontrivial they will probably do the same work twice.

Finally add uprobe_consumer->filter() and change consumer_filter()
to actually call this method.

Note that ->filter() accepts mm_struct, not task_struct. Because:

	1. We do not have for_each_mm_user(mm, task).

	2. Even if we implement for_each_mm_user(), ->filter() can
	   use it itself.

	3. It is not clear who will actually need this interface to
	   do the "nontrivial" filtering.

Another argument is "enum uprobe_filter_ctx", consumer->filter() can
use it to figure out why/where it was called. For example, perhaps
we can add UPROBE_FILTER_PRE_REGISTER used by build_map_info() to
quickly "nack" the unwanted mm's. In this case consumer should know
that it is called under ->i_mmap_mutex.

See the previous discussion at http://marc.info/?t=135214229700002
Perhaps we should pass more arguments, vma/vaddr?

Note: this patch obviously can't help to filter out the child created
by fork(), this will be addressed later.

filter_chain() was added into install_breakpoint/remove_breakpoint to
simplify the initial changes but this is sub-optimal.

This patch shifts the callsite to the callers, register_for_each_vma()
and uprobe_mmap(). This way:

- It will be easier to add the new arguments. This is the main reason,
  we can do more optimizations later.

- register_for_each_vma(is_register => true) can be optimized, we only
  need to consult the new consumer. The previous consumers were already
  asked when they called uprobe_register().

This patch also moves the MMF_HAS_UPROBES check from remove_breakpoint(),
this allows to avoid the potentionally costly filter_chain(). Note that
register_for_each_vma(is_register => false) doesn't really need to take
->consumer_rwsem, but I don't think it makes sense to optimize this and
introduce filter_chain_lockless().

uprobe_register() and uprobe_unregister() are the only users of
mutex_lock(uprobes_hash(inode)), and the only reason why we can't
simply remove it is that we need to ensure that delete_uprobe() is
not possible after alloc_uprobe() and before consumer_add().

IOW, we need to ensure that when we take uprobe->register_rwsem
this uprobe is still valid and we didn't race with _unregister()
which called delete_uprobe() in between.

With this patch uprobe_register() simply checks uprobe_is_active()
and retries if it hits this very unlikely race. uprobes_mutex[] is
no longer needed and can be removed.

There is another reason for this change, prepare_uprobe() should be
folded into alloc_uprobe() and we do not want to hold the extra locks
around read_mapping_page/etc.

The lifetime of uprobe->rb_node and uprobe->inode is not refcounted,
delete_uprobe() is called when we detect that uprobe has no consumers,
and it would be deadly wrong to do this twice.

Change delete_uprobe() to WARN() if it was already called. We use
RB_CLEAR_NODE() to mark uprobe "inactive", then RB_EMPTY_NODE() can
be used to detect this case.

RB_EMPTY_NODE() is not used directly, we add the trivial helper for

Introduce uprobe->register_rwsem. It is taken for writing around
__uprobe_register/unregister.

Change handler_chain() to use this sem rather than consumer_rwsem.

The main reason for this change is that we have the nasty problem
with mmap_sem/consumer_rwsem dependency. filter_chain() needs to
protect uprobe->consumers like handler_chain(), but they can not
use the same lock. filter_chain() can be called under ->mmap_sem
(currently this is always true), but we want to allow ->handler()
to play with the probed task's memory, and this needs ->mmap_sem.

Alternatively we could use srcu, but synchronize_srcu() is very
slow and ->register_rwsem allows us to do more. In particular, we
can teach handler_chain() to do remove_breakpoint() if this bp is
"nacked" by all consumers, we know that we can't race with the
new consumer which does uprobe_register().

See also the next patches. uprobes_mutex[] is almost ready to die.

To support the filtering uprobe_register() should do
register_for_each_vma(true) every time the new consumer comes,
we need to install the previously nacked breakpoints.

Note:
	- uprobes_mutex[] should die, what it actually protects is
	  alloc_uprobe().

	- UPROBE_RUN_HANDLER should die too, obviously it can't work
	  unless uprobe has a single consumer. The consumer should
	  serialize with _register/_unregister itself. Or this flag
	  should live in uprobe_consumer->state.

	- Perhaps we can do some optimizations later. For example, if
	  filter_chain() never returns false uprobe can record this
	  fact and avoid the unnecessary register_for_each_vma().

Until then it works as if any consumer returns true, this matches the
current behavior.

Change install_breakpoint() to call filter_chain() instead of checking
uprobe->consumers != NULL. We obviously need this, and this equally
closes the race with _unregister().

A sweep of the kernel for regex "kcalloc(sizeof" turned up 2 reversed
args, fixed in commit d3d09e18 ("EDAC:
Fix kcalloc argument order") and also fixed in the networking commit
a1b1add0 ("gro: Fix kcalloc argument
order").

I know that was the regex used, because on seeing the 1st of these
changes, I wondered "how many other instances of this are there" and I
happened to just use "calloc(sizeof" as a regex and it in turn found
these additional reversed args instances in the perf code.

In the kcalloc cases, the changes are cosmetic, since the numbers are
simply multiplied.  I had no desire to go data mining in userspace to
see if the same thing held true there, however.

This is bizarre because the event has already been processed once --
before it was added to the samples queue -- and the event was found to
be sane at that time.

There seem to be 2 causes:

1. perf_evlist__mmap_read updates the read location even though there
are outstanding references to events sitting in the mmap buffers via the
ordered samples queue.

2. There is a single evlist->event_copy for all evlist entries.
event_copy is used to handle an event wrapping at the mmap buffer
boundary.

This patch addresses the second problem - making event_copy local to
each perf_mmap. With this change my highly repeatable use case no longer
fails.

The first problem is much more complicated and will be the subject of a
future patch.

When setup_sorting() is called, 'str' is passed to strtok_r() but it's
not checked to have a valid pointer.  As strtok_r() accepts NULL pointer
on a first argument and use the third argument in that case, it can
cause a trouble since our third argument, tmp, is not initialized.

Currently the setup_sorting() is called for parsing sort keys and exits
if it failed to add the sort key.  As it's included in libperf it'd be
better returning an error code rather than exiting application inside of
the library.

Current _sort__sym_cmp() function is used for comparing symbols between
two hist entries on symbol, symbol_from and symbol_to sort keys.  Those
functions pass addresses of symbols but it's meaningless since it gets
over-written inside of the _sort__sym_cmp function to a start address of
the symbol.  So just get rid of them.

This might cause a difference than prior output for branch stacks since
it seems not using start address of the symbol but branch address.
However AFAICS it'd be same as it gets overwritten anyway.

Also remove redundant part of code in sort__sym_cmp().

Check whether both executables are present on the system before
continuing with the build instead of failing halfway, if either are
missing.

The __perf_evlist__set_leader() was setting the leader for all events in
the list except the first. Which means it assumed the first event
already had event->leader = event.

Seems like this should be the role of the function to also do this. This
is a requirement for an upcoming patch set.
