Enhance the thread stack to output detailed information about paired
calls and returns.

The enhanced processing consumes sample information via
thread_stack__process() and outputs information about paired calls /
returns via a call-back.

While the call-back makes it possible for the facility to be used by
arbitrary tools, a subsequent patch will provide the information to
Python scripting via the db-export interface.

An important part of the call/return information is the
call path which provides a structure that defines a context
sensitive call graph.

Note that there are now two ways to use the thread stack.

For simply providing a call stack (like you would get from the perf
record -g option) the interface consists of thread_stack__event() and
thread_stack__sample().

Whereas the enhanced interface consists of call_return_processor__new()
and thread_stack__process().

Add an index of the event identifiers, in preparation for Intel PT.

The event id (also called the sample id) is a unique number
allocated by the kernel to the event created by perf_event_open().  Events
can include the event id by having a sample type including PERF_SAMPLE_ID or
PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER.

Currently the main use of the event id is to match an event back to the
evsel to which it belongs i.e. perf_evlist__id2evsel()

The purpose of this patch is to make it possible to match an event back to
the mmap from which it was read.  The reason that is useful is because the
mmap represents a time-ordered context (either for a cpu or for a thread).
Intel PT decodes trace information on that basis.  In full-trace mode, that
information can be recorded when the Intel PT trace is read, but in
sample-mode the Intel PT trace data is embedded in a sample and it is in
that case that the "id index" is needed.

So the mmaps are numbered (idx) and the cpu and tid recorded against the id
by perf_evlist__set_sid_idx() which is called by perf_evlist__mmap_per_evsel().

That information is recorded on the perf.data file in the new "id index".
idx, cpu and tid are added to struct perf_sample_id (which is the node of
evlist's hash table to match ids to evsels).  The information can be
retrieved using perf_evlist__id2sid().  Note however this all depends on
having a sample type including PERF_SAMPLE_ID or PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER,
otherwise ids are not recorded.

The "id index" is a synthesized event record which will be created when
Intel PT sampling is used by calling perf_event__synthesize_id_index().

Use the new db_export facility to export data in a database-friendly
way.

A Python script selects the db_export mode by setting a global variable
'perf_db_export_mode' to True.  The script then optionally implements
functions to receive table rows.  The functions are:

	evsel_table
	machine_table
	thread_table
	comm_table
	dso_table
	symbol_table
	sample_table

An example script is provided in a subsequent patch.

[ Reserve space for per symbol db_id space when perf_db_export_mode is on ]
Signed-off-by: NArnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

This patch introduces an abstraction for exporting sample data in a
database-friendly way.  The abstraction does not implement the actual
output.  A subsequent patch takes this facility into use for extending
the script interface.

The abstraction is needed because static data like symbols, dsos, comms
etc need to be exported only once.  That means allocating them a unique
identifier and recording it on each structure.  The member 'db_id' is
used for that.  'db_id' is just a 64-bit sequence number.

Exporting centres around the db_export__sample() function which exports
the associated data structures if they have not yet been allocated a
db_id.

'perf record' post-processes the event stream  to create a list of
build-ids for object files for which sample events have been recorded.
That results in those object files being recorded in the build-id cache.

In the case of VDSO, perf tools reads it from memory and copies it into
a temporary file, which as decribed above, gets added to the build-id
cache.

Then when the perf.data file is processed by other tools, the build-id
of VDSO is listed in the perf.data file and the VDSO can be read from
the build-id cache.  In that case the name of the map, the short name of
the DSO, and the entry in the build-id cache are all "[vdso]".

However, in the 64-bit case, there also can be 32-bit compatibility
VDSOs.

A previous patch added programs "perf-read-vdso32" and "perf
read-vdsox32".

This patch uses those programs to read the correct VDSO for a thread and
create a temporary file just as for the 64-bit VDSO.

The map name and the entry in the build-id cache are still "[vdso]" but
the DSO short name becomes "[vdso32]" and "[vdsox32]" respectively.

perf tools copy VDSO out of memory.  However, on 64-bit machines there
may be 32-bit compatibility VDOs also.  To copy those requires separate
32-bit executables.

This patch adds to the build additional programs perf-read-vdso32 and
perf-read-vdsox32 for 32-bit and x32 respectively.

When 'perf record' write headers, it calls write_xxx in
tools/perf/util/header.c, and check return value. It rolls back all
working only when return value is negative.

This patch ensures write_cpudesc() and write_total_mem() return negative number
when error. Without this patch, headers reported by 'perf report' header is
error in some platform. Following output is caputured on ARM, which doesn't
contain "Processor" field in /proc/cpuinfo. See "cpudesc", "total memory" and
"cmdline" field.

We were setting this only in machine__init(), i.e. for the map_groups that
holds the kernel module maps, not for the one used for a thread's executable
mmaps.

Now we are sure that we can obtain the machine where a thread is by going
via thread->mg->machine, thus we can, in the following patch, make all
codepaths that receive machine _and_ thread, drop the machine one.

After kernel 3.7 (commit b4b8f770),
/proc/cpuinfo replaces 'Processor' to 'model name'.

This patch makes CPUINFO_PROC to an array and provides two choices for
ARM, makes it compatible for different kernel version.

v1 -> v2: minor changes as suggested by Namhyung Kim:

 - Doesn't pass @h and @evlist to __write_cpudesc;
 - Coding style fix.

v2 -> v3:
  - Rebase:

The libunwind provides two caching policy which are global and
per-thread.  As perf unwinds callchains in a single thread, it'd
sufficient to use global caching.

This speeds up my perf report from 14s to 7s on a ~260MB data file.
Although the output sometimes contains a slight difference (~0.01% in
terms of number of lines printed) on callchains which were not resolved.
