024e6c9747 perf tools: Fix parsers' rules to dependencies
Currently the parsers objects (bison/flex related) are each time perf
is built. No matter the generated files are already in place, the
parser generation is executed every time.

Changing the rules to have proper flex/bison objects generation
dependencies.

The parsers code is not rebuilt until the flex/bison source files
are touched. Also when flex/bison source is changed, only dependent
objects are rebuilt.

ea01fa9f63 tools: Connect to the kernel build system
Now you can do

$ make tools/<toolname>

from the toplevel kernel directory and have the respective tool built.

If you want to build and install it, do

$ make tools/<toolname>_install

$ make tools/<toolname>_clean

should clean the respective tool directories.

If you want to clean all in tools, simply do

$ make tools/clean

Also, if you want to get what the possible targets are, simply calling

$ make tools/

should give you the short help.

$ make tools/install

installs all tools, of course. Doh.

Using the same keystrokes as vim:

/ = search forward

? = search backwards

Still needs to continue from start/end when not found, use HOME + / or

At some point we need a keybindings file to support ones favourite mode,
erm, like EMACS, etc.

Also we now need a 'h' window with all these keybindings.

cc68628096 perf report: Correct display of samples and events in header
This patch prints the number of samples and the count of performance
events separately.

This allows comparing performance of different applications with each
other.

Previously, the sample count was displayed against an 'Events:' heading.
With this patch, the header now reads (for example):

Samples: 5K of event 'instructions'
Event count (approx.): 2993026545

The patch covers both the stdio and the browser interface.

This is done just like the callq case, i.e. parsing objdump output

e235f3f3bf perf ui annotate browser: Allow toggling addr offset view
The lines in objdump have this format:

    ffffffff8126543f:       jne    ffffffff81265494 <__list_del_entry+0x84>
<SNIP>
    ffffffff81265494:       mov    %rdi,%rcx

Since we now have objdump_line allowing tools to print the offset
independently from the rest of the line, allow toggling a view where
just offsets from the start of the function are shown:

     2f:       jne    ffffffff81265494 <__list_del_entry+0x84>
<SNIP>
     84:       mov    %rdi,%rcx

The offset view will be the default as soon as operations that deal with
offsets in a function are handled accodringly, i.e. in offset view the
above will become:

     2f:       jne    __list_del_entry+0x84
<SNIP>
     84:       mov    %rdi,%rcx

And then a follow up patch will allow navigating thru jumps, just like
we handle callq instructions.

31d68e7b66 perf annotate: Validate addr in symbol__inc_addr_samples
This routine was checking only if the provided address was after
sym->end, not if it was before sym->start.

Fix that by checking for both and return in both cases -ERANGE, so that
tools can communicate this to the user properly, or if they chose so, to
abort.

This problem was reported previously but the fixes involved either doing
what was being done for the > end case, i.e. silently drop the sample,
returning 0, or aborting at this function, which is in a lib (or better,
is slated to be at some point) and shouldn't abort.

The 'report' tool already checks this value and uses pr_debug to warn
the user.

This patch makes the 'top' tool check it too and warn once per map where
such range problem takes place.

8493fe1daf perf hists browser: Fix NULL deref in hists browsing code
If there's an event with no samples in data file, the perf report
command can segfault after entering the event details menu.

Following steps reproduce the issue:

 # ./perf record -e syscalls:sys_enter_kexec_load,syscalls:sys_enter_mmap ls
 # ./perf report
 # enter '0 syscalls:sys_enter_kexec_load' menu
 # pres ENTER twice

Above steps are valid assuming ls wont run kexec.. ;)

The check for sellection to be NULL is missing. The fix makes sure it's
being check. Above steps now endup with menu being displayed allowing
'Exit' as the only option.

63fa471dd4 perf hists: Catch and handle out-of-date hist entry maps.
When a process exec()'s, all the maps are retired, but we keep the hist
entries around which hold references to those outdated maps.

If the same library gets mapped in for which we have hist entries, a new
map will be created.  But when we take a perf entry hit within that map,
we'll find the existing hist entry with the older map.

This causes symbol translations to be done incorrectly.  For example,
the perf entry processing will lookup the correct uptodate map entry and
use that to calculate the symbol and DSO relative address.  But later
when we update the histogram we'll translate the address using the
outdated map file instead leading to conditions such as out-of-range
offsets in symbol__inc_addr_samples().

Therefore, update the map of the hist_entry dynamically at lookup/
creation time.

fa30c964c0 perf tools: Fix bug in raw sample parsing
In perf_event__parse_sample(), the array variable was not incremented
by the amount of data used by the raw_data.

That was okay until we added PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK which depends on
the array variable pointing to the beginning of the branch stack data.

But that was not the case if branch stack was combined with raw mode
sampling. That led to bogus branch stack addresses and count.

The bug would show up with:
$ perf record -R -b foo

This patch fixes the problem by correctly moving the array pointer
forward for RAW samples.

6d4818c524 perf tools: Fix display of first level of callchains
The callchain stdio mode display was written using a sorted by symbol
report. In this mode we have only one callchain root per hist so we
forgot to handle cases where we have multiple callchain root, as in per
dso sorting for example.

Fix this by handling these roots like any other branch, with the hist as
the parent.

Before:

     1.97%  libpthread-2.12.1.so
            |
            --- __libc_write
                create_worker
                bench_sched_messaging
                cmd_bench
                run_builtin
                main
                __libc_start_main

            |
            --- __libc_read
                create_worker
                bench_sched_messaging
                cmd_bench
                run_builtin
                main
                __libc_start_main

After:

     1.97%  libpthread-2.12.1.so
            |
            |--36.97%-- __libc_write
            |          create_worker
            |          bench_sched_messaging
            |          cmd_bench
            |          run_builtin
            |          main
            |          __libc_start_main
            |
            |--31.47%-- __libc_read
            |          create_worker
            |          bench_sched_messaging
            |          cmd_bench
            |          run_builtin

            |          __libc_start_main
           ...

Single roots keep their entry without percentage because they have
the same overhead than the hist they refer to. ie: 100% in fractal
mode and the percentage of the hist in graph mode:

     0.00%  [k] reschedule_interrupt
            |
            --- default_idle
                amd_e400_idle
                cpu_idle

  - hists data need to be collected into opened sessions instead
    of into events
  - session's hists data need to be initialized properly when the
    session is created
  - hist_entry__pcnt_snprintf: the percentage and displacement
    buffer preparation must not use 'ret' because it's used
    as a pointer to the final buffer

5d7be90ed5 perf tools: Fix modifier to be applied on correct events
The event modifier needs to be applied only on the event definition it
is attached to.

The current state is that in case of multiple events definition (in
single '-e' option, separated by ',') all will get modifier of the last
one.

Fixing this by adding separated list for each event definition, so the
modifier is applied only to proper event(s). Added automated test to
catch this, plus some other modifier tests.

The option REBOOT_ON_SUCCESS is global, and will have the machine reboot
the the box if all tests are successful. But a test may not want the
machine to reboot, and perhaps have the kernel it loaded be used to
install the next kernel. Or the last test may set up a kernel that the
user may want to look at. In this case, the user could have the global
option REBOOT_ON_SUCCESS be true, but if a test is defined to run at the
end, that test can override the global option and keep the kernel it
installed for the user to log in with.

 - New "hardware based branch profiling" feature both on the kernel and
   the tooling side, on CPUs that support it.  (modern x86 Intel CPUs
   with the 'LBR' hardware feature currently.)

   This new feature is basically a sophisticated 'magnifying glass' for
   branch execution - something that is pretty difficult to extract from
   regular, function histogram centric profiles.

   The simplest mode is activated via 'perf record -b', and the result
   looks like this in perf report:

	$ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy

	$ perf report -b --sort=symbol
	    52.34%  [.] main                   [.] f1
	    24.04%  [.] f1                     [.] f3
	    23.60%  [.] f1                     [.] f2
	     0.01%  [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn    [k] _IO_file_overflow
	     0.01%  [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal  [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn
	     0.01%  [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal  [k] strchrnul
	     0.01%  [k] __printf               [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal
	     0.01%  [k] main                   [k] __printf

   This output shows from/to branch columns and shows the highest
   percentage (from,to) jump combinations - i.e.  the most likely taken
   branches in the system.  "branches" can also include function calls
   and any other synchronous and asynchronous transitions of the
   instruction pointer that are not 'next instruction' - such as system
   calls, traps, interrupts, etc.

   This feature comes with (hopefully intuitive) flat ascii and TUI
   support in perf report.

 - Various 'perf annotate' visual improvements for us assembly junkies.
   It will now recognize function calls in the TUI and by hitting enter
   you can follow the call (recursively) and back, amongst other
   improvements.

 - Multiple threads/processes recording support in perf record, perf
   stat, perf top - which is activated via a comma-list of PIDs:

	perf top -p 21483,21485
	perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd
	perf record -p 21483,21485

 - Support for per UID views, via the --uid paramter to perf top, perf
   report, etc.  For example 'perf top --uid mingo' will only show the
   tasks that I am running, excluding other users, root, etc.

 - Jump label restructurings and improvements - this includes the
   factoring out of the (hopefully much clearer) include/linux/static_key.h
   generic facility:

	struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE;

	...

	if (static_key_false(&key))
	        do unlikely code
	else
	        do likely code

	...
	static_key_slow_inc();
	...
	static_key_slow_inc();
	...

   The static_key_false() branch will be generated into the code with as
   little impact to the likely code path as possible.  the
   static_key_slow_*() APIs flip the branch via live kernel code patching.

   This facility can now be used more widely within the kernel to
   micro-optimize hot branches whose likelihood matches the static-key
   usage and fast/slow cost patterns.

 - SW function tracer improvements: perf support and filtering support.

 - Various hardenings of the perf.data ABI, to make older perf.data's
   smoother on newer tool versions, to make new features integrate more
   smoothly, to support cross-endian recording/analyzing workflows
   better, etc.

 - Restructuring of the kprobes code, the splitting out of 'optprobes',
   and a corner case bugfix.

 - Allow the tracing of kernel console output (printk).

 - Improvements/fixes to user-space RDPMC support, allowing user-space
   self-profiling code to extract PMU counts without performing any
   system calls, while playing nice with the kernel side.

 - 'perf bench' improvements

 - ... and lots of internal restructurings, cleanups and fixes that made
   these features possible.  And, as usual this list is incomplete as
   there were also lots of other improvements
