Following the 'perf report' model we don't zap hist_entry instances from
the rb tree, we just keep them with he->filtered set to a mask of the
filters applied to it (thread, parent, DSO so far).

In top we need to decay even filtered entries, but we better not touch
total_period for them...

Now everything seems to work when filters are applied on top as they
worked in 'report', i.e. both dynamic and static hist entry browsing
works with filters.

TUI help states for multiple event sessions the TAB/UNTAB keys are used
to switch events. For single event sessions (e.g., the default) the tab
key currently causes the tui to exit. Change that to do nothing since
there is not no second event to switch to.

Feature bitmap is declared as an array of unsigned longs -- not good
since its size can differ between the host that generated the data file
and the host analyzing the file.

We need to handle endianness, but we don't know the size of the unsigned
long where the file was generated. Take a best guess at determining it:
try 64-bit swap first (ie., file created on a 64-bit host), and check if
the hostname feature bit is set (this feature bit is forced on as of
fbe96f29).  If the bit is not, undo the 64-bit swap and try a 32-bit
swap. If the hostname bit is still not set (e.g., older data file), punt
and fallback to the original behavior -- clearing all feature bits and
setting buildid.

With underlying dynamic data structures we need to invalidate pointers
to them after a timer, as that entry may have vanished (decayed in top,
for instance).

I forgot about browser_ui->top. Fix it by resetting it to null after a

entry because it starts from rb_first(&hists->entries).

When using multiple events the 'top' and 'report' tools will first
present the user with a menu to choose the event to browse.

After that the user can either press <- to go back to the menu and
choose another event or instead press TAB to go the next event without
having to go back to the menu or shift-TAB (UNTAB) to go the previous
event, useful to quickly visually see if multiple events are correlated.

The handling of each hists browser return was broken by the ed7e5662,
that combined both switches, the first that was for choosing the event
and the second that was for checking if switching to the next event
without passing thru the events menu.

Repeat with me: Don't be clever like that.

Fix it by moving the switch to right after the call to the hists
browser, making abundantly clear that the two switches are unrelated.

This also fixes a compiler warning about the 'pos' variable being
possibly used unitialized.

In browsers that access dynamic underlying data structures, like in the
hists browser and its hist_entry rb_tree, we need to revalidate any
reference to the underlying data structure, because they can have gone
away, decayed.

This fixes a problem where after a while the top entries get behind the
top of the screen, i.e. the top_idx stays at 0, which means it is at the
first entry in the rb_tree when in fact it wasn't because the
browser->top didn't got revalidated after the timer ran and the
underlying data structure got updated.

The goal of this patch is to include more information about the host
environment into the perf.data so it is more self-descriptive. Overtime,
profiles are captured on various machines and it becomes hard to track
what was recorded, on what machine and when.

This patch provides a way to solve this by extending the perf.data file
with basic information about the host machine. To add those extensions,
we leverage the feature bits capabilities of the perf.data format.  The
change is backward compatible with existing perf.data files.

We define the following useful new extensions:
 - HEADER_HOSTNAME: the hostname
 - HEADER_OSRELEASE: the kernel release number
 - HEADER_ARCH: the hw architecture
 - HEADER_CPUDESC: generic CPU description
 - HEADER_NRCPUS: number of online/avail cpus
 - HEADER_CMDLINE: perf command line
 - HEADER_VERSION: perf version
 - HEADER_TOPOLOGY: cpu topology
 - HEADER_EVENT_DESC: full event description (attrs)
 - HEADER_CPUID: easy-to-parse low level CPU identication

The small granularity for the entries is to make it easier to extend
without breaking backward compatiblity. Many entries are provided as
ASCII strings.

Perf report/script have been modified to print the basic information as
easy-to-parse ASCII strings. Extended information about CPU and NUMA
topology may be requested with the -I option.

Thanks to David Ahern for reviewing and testing the many versions of
this patch.

Previously the hist_browser dealt with a static tree of entries, now it
needs to update the nr_entries in the browser after the timer runs.

A better solution will come when moving using another thread for the
collapse_resort, etc, but for now this is ok.

When requesting multiple events, say:

  # perf top -e instructions -e cycles -e cache-misses

The first screen lets the user chose what to see first, then to switch
one can either use the left key to get back to the event menu or simply
use TAB to go the next and shift+TAB to go the prev.

When using TAB/UNTAB the call to perf_evlist__set_selected(event) was
missing, fix it.

And add better explanations when the line isn't actionable, like non
assembly lines and on other instructions.

The perf report -n option was broken because it was not reporting the
correct number of samples depending on the sorting mode. By default,
samples are sorted by comm,dso,sym. That means that samples for the same
command (binary) get collapsed.

The hists__collapse_insert_entry() had a bug whereby it was aggregating
the number of events observed (periods) but not the number of samples.
Consequently, the number of samples reported could be below reality. The
percentage remained correct because based on the periods.

This patch fixes the problem by also aggregating the number of samples.
Here is an example:

$ perf report -n --stdio
    12.38%        842     pong  [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] __lock_acquire

Here pong (a ctxsw stress test), is the only program running
and thus it is the only one responsible for the lock_acquire samples.

If we change the sorting mode:

$ perf report -n --stdio --sort=sym
    12.38%       1732  [k] __lock_acquire

The actual number of samples is shown.

With the fix:

$ perf report -n --stdio
    12.38%       1732     pong  [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] __lock_acquire

I.e. when in the annotate TUI window, if Enter is pressed over an
assembly line with a 'callq' it will try to open another TUI window with
that symbol.

This is just a proof of concept and works only on x86_64, more work is
needed to support kernel modules, userland, other arches, etc, but
should already be useful as-is.
