eefc465cdd perf session: Change perf_session post processing functions to take histogram tree
Now that report can store historgrams for multiple events we
need to be able to do the post processing work for each
histogram. This patch changes the post processing functions so
that they can be called individually for each event's histogram.

d403d0acc9 perf session: Change add_hist_entry to take the tree root instead of session
In order to minimize the impact of storing multiple events in a
report this function will now take the root of the histogram
tree so that the logic for selecting the proper tree can be
inserted before the call.

But from the 'perf report' result we know that there are hits
for need_resched on a 4 way machine mostly doing nothing, so
after adding code to show what is in each hist offset and
collapsing IP hits for what happens between objdump lines we
get, for the same perf.data file:

628ada0cb0 perf annotate: Defer allocating sym_priv->hist array
Because symbol->end is not fixed up at symbol_filter time, only
after all symbols for a DSO are loaded, and that, for asm
symbols, may be bogus, causing segfaults when hits happen in

7a2b620986 perf annotate: Fix it for non-prelinked *.so
The problem was we were incorrectly calculating objdump
addresses for sym->start and sym->end, look:

For simple ET_DYN type DSO (*.so) with one function, objdump -dS
output is something like this:

    000004ac <my_strlen>:
    int my_strlen(const char *s)
     4ac:   55                      push   %ebp
     4ad:   89 e5                   mov    %esp,%ebp
     4af:   83 ec 10                sub    $0x10,%esp
    {

i.e. we have relative-to-dso-mapping IPs (=RIP) there.

For ET_EXEC type and probably for prelinked libs as well (sorry
can't test - I don't use prelink) objdump outputs absolute IPs,
e.g.

    08048604 <zz_strlen>:
    extern "C"
    int zz_strlen(const char *s)
     8048604:       55                      push   %ebp
     8048605:       89 e5                   mov    %esp,%ebp
     8048607:       83 ec 10                sub    $0x10,%esp
    {

So, if sym->start is always relative to dso mapping(*), we'll
have to unmap it for ET_EXEC like cases, and leave as is for
ET_DYN cases.

(*) and it is - we've explicitely made it relative. Look for
    adjust_symbols handling in dso__load_sym()

Previously we were always unmapping sym->start and for ET_DYN
dsos resulting addresses were wrong, and so objdump output was
empty.

The end result was that perf annotate output for symbols from
non-prelinked *.so had always 0.00% percents only, which is
wrong.

To fix it, let's introduce a helper for converting rip to
objdump address, and also let's document what map_ip() and
unmap_ip() do -- I had to study sources for several hours to
understand it.

4aa6563641 perf session: Move kmaps to perf_session
There is still some more work to do to disentangle map creation
from DSO loading, but this happens only for the kernel, and for
the early adopters of perf diff, where this disentanglement
matters most, we'll be testing different kernels, so no problem
here.

Further clarification: right now we create the kernel maps for
the various modules and discontiguous kernel text maps when
loading the DSO, we should do it as a two step process, first
creating the maps, for multiple mappings with the same DSO
store, then doing the dso load just once, for the first hit on
one of the maps sharing this DSO backing store.

1ed091c45a perf tools: Consolidate symbol resolving across all tools
Now we have a very high level routine for simple tools to
process IP sample events:

	int event__preprocess_sample(const event_t *self,
				     struct addr_location *al,
				     symbol_filter_t filter)

It receives the event itself and will insert new threads in the
global threads list and resolve the map and symbol, filling all
this info into the new addr_location struct, so that tools like
annotate and report can further process the event by creating
hist_entries in their specific way (with or without callgraphs,
etc).

It in turn uses the new next layer function:

	void thread__find_addr_location(struct thread *self, u8 cpumode,
					enum map_type type, u64 addr,
					struct addr_location *al,
					symbol_filter_t filter)

This one will, given a thread (userspace or the kernel kthread
one), will find the given type (MAP__FUNCTION now, MAP__VARIABLE
too in the near future) at the given cpumode, taking vdsos into
account (userspace hit, but kernel symbol) and will fill all
these details in the addr_location given.

Tools that need a more compact API for plain function
resolution, like 'kmem', can use this other one:

	struct symbol *thread__find_function(struct thread *self, u64 addr,
					     symbol_filter_t filter)

So, to resolve a kernel symbol, that is all the 'kmem' tool
needs, its just a matter of calling:

	sym = thread__find_function(kthread, addr, NULL);

The 'filter' parameter is needed because we do lazy
parsing/loading of ELF symtabs or /proc/kallsyms.

With this we remove more code duplication all around, which is
always good, huh? :-)

maps__find_symbol that already checks if the symtab was loaded,
loading it if needed.

Now if one does 'perf top --hide_kernel_symbols' we won't pay

We need this because we get section relative addresses when

to match these address to what 'objdump -dS' produces we need
the address + section back again.

So in annotate now we look at the 'struct hist_entry' instances
(that weren't really being used) so that we iterate only over
the symbols that had some hit and get the map where that
particular hit happened so that we can get the right address to
match with annotate.

Verified that at least:

 perf annotate mmap_read_counter # Uses the ~/bin/perf binary
 perf annotate --vmlinux /home/acme/git/build/perf/vmlinux intel_pmu_enable_all

on a 'perf record perf top' session seems to work.

we can do this and even more, like asking for just kernel + some module:

439d473b47 perf tools: Rewrite and improve support for kernel modules
Representing modules as struct map entries, backed by a DSO, etc,
using /proc/modules to find where the module is loaded.

DSOs now can have a short and long name, so that in verbose mode we
can show exactly which .ko or vmlinux image was used.

As kernel modules now are a DSO separate from the kernel, we can
ask for just the hits for a particular set of kernel modules, just
like we can do with shared libraries:

[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf report -n --vmlinux
/home/acme/git/build/tip-recvmmsg/vmlinux --modules --dsos \[drm\] | head -15
    84.58%      13266             Xorg  [k] drm_clflush_pages
     4.02%        630             Xorg  [k] trace_kmalloc.clone.0
     3.95%        619             Xorg  [k] drm_ioctl
     2.07%        324             Xorg  [k] drm_addbufs
     1.68%        263             Xorg  [k] drm_gem_close_ioctl
     0.77%        120             Xorg  [k] drm_setmaster_ioctl
     0.70%        110             Xorg  [k] drm_lastclose
     0.68%        106             Xorg  [k] drm_open
     0.54%         85             Xorg  [k] drm_mm_search_free
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]#

Specifying --dsos /lib/modules/2.6.31-tip/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/drm.ko
would have the same effect. Allowing specifying just 'drm.ko' is left
for another patch.

Processing kallsyms so that per kernel module struct map are
instantiated was also left for another patch. That will allow
removing the module name from each of its symbols.

struct symbol was reduced by removing the ->module backpointer and
moving it (well now the map) to struct symbol_entry in perf top,
that is its only user right now.

The total linecount went down by ~500 lines.

cbfeb267cb perf annotate: Add the cmp_null function and make use of it
This function exists in builtin-report.c but not in
builtin-annotate.c Functions that use cmp_null are shorter and
clearer.

Synchronizing functions between these two files will also make it
easier to potential share code in the future.
