Fix event namelist to duplicate string. Without duplicating, adding
multiple probes causes stack overwrite bug, because it reuses a
buffer on stack while the buffer is already added in the namelist.
String duplication solves this bug because only contents of the
buffer is copied to the namelist.

Uses of strcat are almost always signs that someone is too lazy
to think about the code a bit more carefully. One always has to
know about the lengths of the strings involved to avoid buffer
overflows.
This is one case where the size of the object code for me is
reduced by 38 bytes. The code should also be faster, especially
if flags is non-NULL.

Currently, sample event data is parsed for each commands, and it
is assuming that the data is not including other data. (E.g.
timechart, trace, etc. can't parse the event if it has
PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN)
So, even if we record the superset data for multiple commands at
a time, commands can't parse. etc.
To fix it, this makes common sample event parser, and use it to
parse sample event correctly. (PERF_SAMPLE_READ is unsupported
for now though, it seems to be not using.)

The Perl scripting support for perf trace allows most of a trace
event's data to be accessed directly as handler arguments, but
not all of it e.g. the less common fields aren't passed in. To
give scripts access to the other fields and/or any other data or
metadata in the main perf executable that might be useful, a way
to access the C data in perf from Perl is needed; this patch
uses the Perl XS facility to do it for the common_xxx event
fields not passed to handler functions.
Context.pm exports three functions to Perl scripts that access
fields for the current event by calling back into perf:
common_pc(), common_flags() and common_lock_depth(). Support
for common_flags() field values was added to Core.pm and a
script used to sanity check these and other basic scripting
features, check-perf-trace.pl, was also added.

Implement trace_scripting_ops to make Perl a supported perf
trace scripting language.
Additionally adds code that allows Perl trace scripts to access
the 'flag' and 'symbolic' (__print_flags(), __print_symbolic())
field information parsed from the trace format files.
Also adds the Perl implementation of the generate_script()
trace_scripting_op, which creates a ready-to-run perf trace Perl
script based on existing trace data. Scripts generated by this
implementation print out all the fields for each event mentioned
in perf.data (and will detect and generate the proper scripting
code for 'flag' and 'symbolic' fields), and will additionally
generate handlers for the special 'trace_unhandled',
'trace_begin' and 'trace_end' handlers. Script authors can
simply remove the printing code to implement their own custom
event handling.

Adds an interface, scripting_ops, that when implemented for a
particular scripting language enables built-in support for trace
stream processing using that language.
The interface is designed to enable full-fledged language
interpreters to be embedded inside the perf executable and
thereby make the full capabilities of the supported languages
available for trace processing.
See below for details on the interface.
This patch also adds a couple command-line options to 'perf
trace':
The -s option option is used to specify the script to be run.
Script names that can be used with -s take the form:
[language spec:]scriptname[.ext]
Scripting languages register a set of 'language specs' that can
be used to specify scripts for the registered languages. The
specs can be used either as prefixes or extensions.
If [language spec:] is used, the script is taken as a script of
the matching language regardless of any extension it might have.
If [language spec:] is not used, [.ext] is used to look up the
language it corresponds to. Language specs are case
insensitive.
e.g. Perl scripts can be specified in the following ways:
Perl:scriptname
pl:scriptname.py # extension ignored
PL:scriptname
scriptname.pl
scriptname.perl
The -g [language spec] option gives users an easy starting point
for writing scripts in the specified language. Scripting
support for a particular language can implement a
generate_script() scripting op that outputs an empty (or
near-empty) set of handlers for all the events contained in a
given perf.data trace file - this option gives users a direct
way to access that.
Adding support for a scripting language
---------------------------------------
The main thing that needs to be done do add support for a new
language is to implement the scripting_ops interface:
It consists of the following four functions:
start_script()
stop_script()
process_event()
generate_script()
start_script() is called before any events are processed, and is
meant to give the scripting language support an opportunity to
set things up to receive events e.g. create and initialize an
instance of a language interpreter.
stop_script() is called after all events are processed, and is
meant to give the scripting language support an opportunity to
clean up e.g. destroy the interpreter instance, etc.
process_event() is called once for each event and takes as its
main parameter a pointer to the binary trace event record to be
processed. The implementation is responsible for picking out the
binary fields from the event record and sending them to the
script handler function associated with that event e.g. a
function derived from the event name it's meant to handle e.g.
'sched::sched_switch()'. The 'format' information for trace
events can be used to parse the binary data and map it into a
form usable by a given scripting language; see the Perl
implemention in subsequent patches for one possible way to
leverage the existing trace format parsing code in perf and map
that info into specific scripting language types.
generate_script() should generate a ready-to-run script for the
current set of events in the trace, preferably with bodies that
print out every field for each event. Again, look at the Perl
implementation for clues as to how that can be done. This is an
optional, but very useful op.
Support for a given language should also add a language-specific
setup function and call it from setup_scripting(). The
language-specific setup function associates the the scripting
ops for that language with one or more 'language specifiers'
(see below) using script_spec_register(). When a script name is
specified on the command line, the scripting ops associated with
the specified language are used to instantiate and use the
appropriate interpreter to process the trace stream.
In general, it should be relatively easy to add support for a
new language, especially if the language implementation supports
an interface allowing an interpreter to be 'embedded' inside
another program (in this case the containing program will be
'perf trace'). If so, it should be relatively straightforward to
translate trace events into invocations of user-defined script
functions where e.g. the function name corresponds to the event
type and the function parameters correspond to the event fields.
The event and field type information exported by the event
tracing infrastructure (via the event 'format' files) should be
enough to parse and send any piece of trace data to the user
script. The easiest way to see how this can be done would be to
look at the Perl implementation contained in
perf/util/trace-event-perl.c/.h.
There are a couple of other things that aren't covered by the
scripting_ops or setup interface and are technically optional,
but should be implemented if possible. One of these is support
for 'flag' and 'symbolic' fields e.g. being able to use more
human-readable values such as 'GFP_KERNEL' or
HI/BLOCK_IOPOLL/TASKLET in place of raw flag values. See the
Perl implementation to see how this can be done. The other thing
is support for 'calling back' into the perf executable to access
e.g. uncommon fields not passed by default into handler
functions, or any metadata the implementation might want to make
available to users via the language interface. Again, see the
Perl implementation for examples.

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? :-)

removed code to set the FIELD_IS_SIGNED flag that was originally
added by commit 26a50744b2
(tracing/events: Add 'signed' field to format files).
This adds it back.

And also express its configuration toggles via a struct.
Now all one has to do is to call symbol__init(NULL) if the
defaults are OK, or pass a struct symbol_conf pointer with the
desired configuration.
If a tool uses kernel_maps__find_symbol() to look at the kernel
and modules mappings for a symbol but didn't call symbol__init()
first, that will generate a one time warning too, alerting the
subcommand developer that symbol__init() must be called.

Currently, perf fails to compile on powerpc with this error:
CC util/header.o
In file included from util/../perf.h:17,
from util/header.c:9:
util/../../../arch/powerpc/include/asm/unistd.h:360:27: error:
linux/linkage.h: No such file or directory make: ***
[util/header.o] Error 1
The reason is that we still have a #define __KERNEL__ in effect
at the point where <asm/unistd.h> gets included, which means we
get extra stuff that we don't need or want.
This fixes the problem by undefining __KERNEL__ once we have
included the file for which we need __KERNEL__ defined.

Now that we can check the buildid to see if it really matches,
this can be done safely:
vmlinux
/boot/vmlinux
/boot/vmlinux-<uts.release>
/lib/modules/<uts.release>/build/vmlinux
/usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/%s/vmlinux
More can be added - if you know about distros that put the
vmlinux somewhere else please let us know.

Add the breakpoint events support with this new sysnopsis:
mem:addr[:access]
Where addr is a raw addr value in the kernel and access can be
either [r][w][x]
Example to profile tasklist_lock:
$ grep tasklist_lock /proc/kallsyms
ffffffff8189c000 D tasklist_lock
$ perf record -e mem:0xffffffff8189c000:rw -a -f -c 1
$ perf report
# Samples: 62
#
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ ............... ............. ......
#
29.03% swapper [kernel] [k] _raw_read_trylock
29.03% swapper [kernel] [k] _raw_read_unlock
19.35% init [kernel] [k] _raw_read_trylock
19.35% init [kernel] [k] _raw_read_unlock
1.61% events/0 [kernel] [k] _raw_read_trylock
1.61% events/0 [kernel] [k] _raw_read_unlock
Coming soon:
- Support for symbols in the event definition.
- Default period to 1 for breakpoint events because these are
not high frequency events. The same thing is needed for trace
events.

The write_event() function in builtin-record.c writes out all
mmap()'d DSOs including non-ELF files like GNOME resource files
and such.
Therefore, check for ELF_K_ELF in filename__read_build_id()
before attempting to read the ELF header with gelf_getehdr().
Fixes the following error messages when running "perf kmem
record":

It better propagate errors, also if we do a simple:
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf record -R -a -f sleep 3s ;
perf trace [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.182 MB perf.data (~7972 samples) ]
Fatal: not an trace data file
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]#
That is what is expected, right? I.e. as we didn't specify any
tracepoint event via -e, it should gracefully bail out and not
SEGFAULT.
