Support "$vars" meta argument syntax for tracing all local variables at
probe point.

Now you can trace all available local variables (including function
parameters) at the probe point by passing $vars.

 # perf probe --add foo $vars

This automatically finds all local variables at foo() and adds it as
probe arguments.

Fix perf probe to probe on some symbols which have some optimzation
suffixes, e.g. ".part", ".isra", and ".constprop".

To fix this issue, instead of using the DIE name, perf probe uses the
symbol name found by dwfl_module_addrsym().

This also involves a perf probe --vars operation update which now shows
the symbol name instead of the DIE name.

Without this patch, putting a probe on an inlined function which was
compiled with a suffixed symbol will fail like this:

  $ perf probe -v getname_flags
  probe-definition(0): getname_flags
  symbol:getname_flags file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
  0 arguments
  Looking at the vmlinux_path (6 entries long)
  Using /lib/modules/3.11.0+/build/vmlinux for symbols
  found inline addr: 0xffffffff8119bb70
  Probe point found: getname_flags+0
  found inline addr: 0xffffffff8119bcb6
  Probe point found: getname+6
  found inline addr: 0xffffffff811a06a6
  Probe point found: user_path_at_empty+6
  find 3 probe_trace_events.
  Opening /sys/kernel/debug//tracing/kprobe_events write=1
  Added new events:
  Writing event: p:probe/getname_flags getname_flags+0
  Failed to write event: No such file or directory
    Error: Failed to add events. (-1)

Because the debuginfo knows only the original (non suffix) symbol name,
it uses the original symbol for probe address but the kernel (kallsyms)
knows only suffixed symbol.  Then, the kernel rejects that original
symbol.

This patch uses dwfl_module_addrsym() to get the correct (suffixed)
symbol from symtab when a probe point is found.

Fix perf probe to search local variables in appropriate local inlined
function scope. For example, pre_schedule() has only 2 local variables,
as below;

$ perf probe -L pre_schedule
<pre_schedule@/home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-2.6/kernel/sched.c:0>
      0  static inline void pre_schedule(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev)
         {
      2         if (prev->sched_class->pre_schedule)
      3                 prev->sched_class->pre_schedule(rq, prev);
         }

However, current perf probe shows 4 local variables on pre_schedule(),
because it searches variables in the caller(schedule()) scope.

$ perf probe -V pre_schedule
Available variables at pre_schedule
        @<schedule+445>
                int     cpu
                long unsigned int*      switch_count
                struct rq*      rq
                struct task_struct*     prev

This patch fixes this issue by searching variables in the local scope of
the instance of inlined function. Here is the result.

$ perf probe -V pre_schedule
Available variables at pre_schedule
        @<schedule+445>
                struct rq*      rq
                struct task_struct*     prev

The vmlinux file may have thousands of CUs.
We can lookup function name from .debug_pubnames section

This change removes the use of hardcoded absolute "/usr/include/elfutils" paths
from the perf build.  The problem with hardcoded paths is that it prevents them
from being overridden by $prefix or by -I in CFLAGS (e.g., for cross-compiling
purposes).

Instead, just include the "elfutils/" subdirectory as a relative path when
files are needed from that directory.

Tested by building perf:
- Cross-compiled for ARM on x86_64
- Built natively on x86_64
- Built on x86_64 with /usr/include/elfutils moved to another location
  and manually included in CFLAGS

      3         struct drm_device *dev = node->minor->dev;

[show vars]
 # ./perf probe --module drm -V drm_vblank_info:3
Available variables at drm_vblank_info:3
        @<drm_vblank_info+20>

perf probe just gets CFI (call frame information) from debuginfo

Add lazy line matching support for specifying new probes.
This also changes the syntax of perf probe a bit. Now
perf probe accepts one of below probe event definitions.

1) Define event based on function name
 [EVENT=]FUNC[@src][:RLN|+OFF|%return|;PTN] [ARG ...]

2) Define event based on source file with line number
 [EVENT=]SRC:ALN [ARG ...]

3) Define event based on source file with lazy pattern
 [EVENT=]SRC;PTN [ARG ...]

- New lazy matching pattern(PTN) follows ';' (semicolon). And it
  must be put the end of the definition.
- So, @src is no longer the part which must be put at the end
  of the definition.

Note that ';' (semicolon) can be interpreted as the end of
a command by the shell. This means that you need to quote it.
(anyway you will need to quote the lazy pattern itself too,
because it may contains other sensitive characters, like
'[',']' etc.).

Lazy matching
-------------
The lazy line matching is similar to glob matching except
ignoring spaces in both of pattern and target.

e.g.
'a=*' can matches 'a=b', 'a = b', 'a == b' and so on.

This provides some sort of flexibility and robustness to
probe point definitions against minor code changes.
(for example, actual 10th line of schedule() can be changed
 easily by modifying schedule(), but the same line matching
 'rq=cpu_rq*' may still exist.)

Changes in v3:
 - Cast Dwarf_Addr to uintmax_t for printf-formats.

Changes in v2:
 - Cast Dwarf_Addr to unsigned long long for printf-formats.

Check (inlined) function address range strictly for
improving output of probe-able lines of inline functions.

Without this change, perf probe --line <function> sometimes
showed other inline function bodies too, because it didn't
filter out inlined functions.

Newer gcc introduces newer & richer debuginfo, and only libdw
in elfutils project can support it. So perf probe moves onto
elfutils-libdw from libdwarf.

Changes in v3:
 - Cast Dwarf_Addr/Dwarf_Word to uintmax_t for printf-formats.
 - Recover a sign-prefix which was removed in v2 by mistake.

Changes in v2:
 - Fix a type-casting bug in Makefile.
 - Cast Dwarf_Addr/Dwarf_Word to unsigned long long for printf-formats.

Add --line option to support showing probable source-code lines.

  perf probe --line SRC:LN[-LN|+NUM]
   or
  perf probe --line FUNC[:LN[-LN|+NUM]]

This option shows source-code with line number if the line can
be probed. Lines without line number (and blue color) means that
the line can not be probed, because debuginfo doesn't have the
information of those lines.

The argument specifies the range of lines, "source.c:100-120"
shows lines between 100th to l20th in source.c file. And
"func:10+20" shows 20 lines from 10th line of func function.

e.g.
 # ./perf probe --line kernel/sched.c:1080
 <kernel/sched.c:1080>
          *
          * called with rq->lock held and irqs disabled
          */
         static void hrtick_start(struct rq *rq, u64 delay)
         {
                struct hrtimer *timer = &rq->hrtick_timer;
   1086         ktime_t time = ktime_add_ns(timer->base->get_time(), delay);

                hrtimer_set_expires(timer, time);

   1090         if (rq == this_rq()) {
   1091                 hrtimer_restart(timer);
   1092         } else if (!rq->hrtick_csd_pending) {
   1093                 __smp_call_function_single(cpu_of(rq), &rq->hrtick_csd,
   1094                 rq->hrtick_csd_pending = 1;

If you specifying function name, this shows function-relative
line number.

 # ./perf probe --line schedule
 <schedule:0>
         asmlinkage void __sched schedule(void)
      1  {
                struct task_struct *prev, *next;

This patch adds -I/usr/include/libdwarf to BASIC_CFLAGS
and fix probe-finder.h to include just libdwarf.h/dwarf.h.

This patch also adds a workaround for the undefined _MIPS_SZLONG
bug in libdwarf.h.

Support event name syntax for --add option. This allows
users to specify event name for each new event.

The --add syntax is:
 perf probe --add '[EVENT=]SRC:LINE ARGS'
or
 perf probe --add '[EVENT=]FUNC[+OFFS|%return|:RLN][@src] ARGS'

e.g.

 ./perf probe --add myprobe1=schedule

Note: currently group name is not supported yet, because it
can cause name-space confliction with other tracepoint/
hw-breakpoint events.

Add perf probe subcommand that implements a kprobe-event setup helper
to the perf command.
This allows user to define kprobe events using C expressions (C line
numbers, C function names, and C local variables).

Usage
-----
 perf probe [<options>] -P 'PROBEDEF' [-P 'PROBEDEF' ...]

    -k, --vmlinux <file>  vmlinux/module pathname
    -P, --probe <p|r:[GRP/]NAME FUNC[+OFFS][@src]|@src:LINE [ARG ...]>
                          probe point definition, where
		p:	kprobe probe
		r:	kretprobe probe
		GRP:	Group name (optional)
		NAME:	Event name
		FUNC:	Function name
		OFFS:	Offset from function entry (in byte)
		SRC:	Source code path
		LINE:	Line number
		ARG:	Probe argument (local variable name or
			kprobe-tracer argument format is supported.)

Changes in v4:
 - Add _GNU_SOURCE macro for strndup().

Changes in v3:
 - Remove -r option because perf always be used for online kernel.
 - Check malloc/calloc results.

Changes in v2:
 - Check synthesized string length.
 - Rename perf kprobe to perf probe.
 - Use spaces for separator and update usage comment.
 - Check error paths in parse_probepoint().
 - Check optimized-out variables.
