When a tool uses perf_evlist__start_workload and the supplied workload fails (e.g.: its binary wasn't found), perror was being used to print the error reason. This is undesirable, as the caller may be a GUI, when it wants to have total control of the error reporting process. So move to using sigaction(SA_SIGINFO) + siginfo_t->sa_value->sival_int to communicate to the caller the errno and let it print it using the UI of its choosing.

Move debugfs.* to api/fs/. We have a common tools/lib/api/ place where the Makefile lives and then we place the headers in subdirs. For example, all the fs-related stuff goes to tools/lib/api/fs/ from which we get libapikfs.a (acme got almost the naming he wanted :-)) and we link it into the tools which need it - in this case perf and tools/vm/page-types. acme: "Looking at the implementation, I think some tools can even link directly to the .o files, avoiding the .a file altogether. But that is just an optimization/finer granularity tools/lib/ cherrypicking that toolers can make use of." Fixup documentation cleaning target while at it.

'next_pow2()' only works for 'unsigned int' but the argument is 'unsigned long'. Checking for values less than (1 << 31) ensures that 'next_pow2()' is not passed a value out of range but lets anything else go through unvalidated.

This affects the -p, -t and -u options that previously defaulted to per-thread mmaps. Consequently add an option to select per-thread mmaps to support the old behaviour.

By default, when tasks are specified (i.e. -p, -t or -u options) per-thread mmaps are created. Add an option to override that and force per-cpu mmaps. Further comments by peterz: So this option allows -t/-p/-u to create one buffer per cpu and attach all the various thread/process/user tasks' their counters to that one buffer? As opposed to the current state where each such counter would have its own buffer.

Most uses of the evsel constructor are followed by a call to perf_evlist__add with an idex of evlist->nr_entries, so make rename the current constructor to perf_evsel__new_idx and remove the need for passing the constructor for the common case. We still need the new_idx variant because the way groups are handled, with evsel->nr_members holding the number of entries in an evlist, partitioning the evlist into sublists inside a single linked list. This asks for a clarifying refactoring, but for now simplify the non parser cases, so that tool writers don't have to bother with evsel idx setting.

The perf_evlist__mmap_read used 'union perf_event' as a placeholder for event crossing the mmap boundary. This is ok for sample shorter than ~PATH_MAX. However we could grow up to the maximum sample size which is 16 bits max. I hit this overflow issue when using 'perf top -G dwarf' which produces sample with the size around 8192 bytes. We could configure any valid sample size here using: '-G dwarf,size'. Using array with sample max size instead for the event placeholder. Also adding another safe check for the dynamic size of the user stack. TODO: The 'struct perf_mmap' is quite big now, maybe we could use some lazy allocation for event_copy size.

Adding possibility to specify mmap size via -m/--mmap-pages by appending unit size character (B/K/M/G) to the number, like: $ perf record -m 8K ls $ perf record -m 2M ls The size is rounded up appropriately to follow perf mmap restrictions.

The perf_evlist__event2evsel() is changed to handle non-sample events (such as mmap events) that have no id sample appended i.e. when sample_id_all is not set. Note that such events have a fixed format, so that the selected event (evsel) they are associated with is immaterial.

perf_evlist__config() must be moved to a separate source file to avoid Python link errors when adding support for PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER. It is appropriate to do this because perf_evlist__config() is a helper function for event recording. It is used by tools to apply recording options to perf_evlist. It is not used by the Python API.
