Right now in the python bindings I'm working on I need just a subset of
the util/ files, untangling it allows me to do that.

It is needed because it will call parse_event for each tracepoint
name that matches, and we pass the perf_evlist via opt->value.

Problem introduced in 4503fdd where my assumption about opt being
always non NULL made me not look at callers of parse_events outside
builtin-*.c.

This patch gives the ability to 'perf record' to detect when its stdout
has been redirected to a pipe. There's now no more need to add '-o -'
switch in this case.

However '-o <path>' option has always precedence, that is if specified
and stdout has been connected via a pipe then the output will go into
the specified output.

Add --funcs to show available functions in symtab.

Originally this feature came from Srikar's uprobes patches
( http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/8/27/244 )

e.g.
...
__ablkcipher_walk_complete
__absent_pages_in_range
__account_scheduler_latency
__add_pages
__alloc_pages_nodemask
__alloc_percpu
__alloc_reserved_percpu
__alloc_skb
__alloc_workqueue_key
__any_online_cpu
__ata_ehi_push_desc
...

This also supports symbols in module, e.g.

...
cleanup_module
cpuid_maxphyaddr
emulate_clts
emulate_instruction
emulate_int_real
emulate_invlpg
emulator_get_dr
emulator_set_dr
emulator_task_switch
emulator_write_emulated
emulator_write_phys
fx_init
...

The callchains are fed with an array of a fixed size.
As a result we iterate over each callchains three times:

- 1st to resolve symbols
- 2nd to filter out context boundaries
- 3rd for the insertion into the tree

This also involves some pairs of memory allocation/deallocation
everytime we insert a callchain, for the filtered out array of
addresses and for the array of symbols that comes along.

Instead, feed the callchains through a linked list with persistent
allocations. It brings several pros like:

- Merge the 1st and 2nd iterations in one. That was possible before
but in a way that would involve allocating an array slightly taller
than necessary because we don't know in advance the number of context
boundaries to filter out.

- Much lesser allocations/deallocations. The linked list keeps
persistent empty entries for the next usages and is extendable at
will.

- Makes it easier for multiple sources of callchains to feed a
stacktrace together. This is deemed to pave the way for cfi based
callchains wherein traditional frame pointer based kernel
stacktraces will precede cfi based user ones, producing an overall
callchain which size is hardly predictable. This requirement
makes the static array obsolete and makes a linked list based
iterator a much more flexible fit.

Basic testing on a big perf file containing callchains (~ 176 MB)
has shown a throughput gain of about 11% with perf report.

This test will generate random numbers of calls to some getpid syscalls,
then establish an mmap for a group of events that are created to monitor
these syscalls.

It will receive the events, using mmap, use its PERF_SAMPLE_ID generated
sample.id field to map back to its respective perf_evsel instance.

Then it checks if the number of syscalls reported as perf events by the
kernel corresponds to the number of syscalls made.

Adopting the new model used in 'perf record', where we don't have a map
per thread per cpu, instead we have an mmap per cpu, established on the
first fd for that cpu and ask the kernel using the
PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT ioctl to send events for the other fds on that
cpu for the one with the mmap.

The methods moved from perf_evsel to perf_evlist, but for easing review
they were modified in place, in evsel.c, the next patch will move the
migrated methods to evlist.c.

With this 'perf top' now uses the same mmap model used by 'perf record'
and the next patches will make 'perf record' use these new routines,
establishing a common codebase for both tools.

moment, we need read_barrier_depends().

dbe08d82 "perf: Fix
find_get_context() vs perf_event_exit_task() race" added
rcu_dereference() into perf_event_exit_task_context() to make
the precedent, but this makes __rcu_dereference_check() unhappy.
Use rcu_dereference_raw() to shut up the warning.

When some of CPUs are offline:

 # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/online
 0,6-31

perf test will fail on #3 testcase:

   3: detect open syscall event on all cpus:
   --- start ---
   perf_evsel__read_on_cpu: expected to intercept 111 calls on cpu 0, got 681
   perf_evsel__read_on_cpu: expected to intercept 112 calls on cpu 1, got 117

   ....

This patch try to use 'cpus->map[cpu]' when setting cpu affinity, and
will check the return code of sched_setaffinity()

In ARM's Thumb mode the bottom bit of the symbol address is set to mark
the function as Thumb; the instructions are in reality 2 or 4 byte on 2
byte alignments, and when the +1 address is used in annotate it causes
objdump to disassemble invalid instructions.

The patch removes that bottom bit during symbol loading.

Many thinks to Dave Martin for comments on an initial version of the
patch.

Lockdep spotted:

	loop_1b_instruc/1899 is trying to acquire lock:
	 (event_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff810e1908>] perf_trace_init+0x3b/0x2f7

	but task is already holding lock:
	 (&ctx->mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff810eb45b>] perf_event_init_context+0xc0/0x218

	which lock already depends on the new lock.

	the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

	-> #3 (&ctx->mutex){+.+.+.}:
	-> #2 (cpu_hotplug.lock){+.+.+.}:
	-> #1 (module_mutex){+.+...}:
	-> #0 (event_mutex){+.+.+.}:

But because the deadlock would be cpuhotplug (cpu-event) vs fork
(task-event) it cannot, in fact, happen. We can annotate this by giving the
perf_event_context used for the cpuctx a different lock class from those
used by tasks.

When fixing the frequency calculations for perf on powerpc I
forgot to fix the FSL version.

If we dont set event->hw.last_period the frequency to period
calculations in perf go haywire and we continually
throttle/unthrottle the PMU.

perf_event_init_task() should clear child->perf_event_ctxp[]
before anything else. Otherwise, if
perf_event_init_context(perf_hw_context) fails,
perf_event_free_task() can free perf_event_ctxp[perf_sw_context]
copied from parent->perf_event_ctxp[] by dup_task_struct().

Also move the initialization of perf_event_mutex and
perf_event_list from perf_event_init_context() to
perf_event_init_context().
