In pipe mode, session->header.env.arch is not populated until the events
are processed. Therefore, the following command crashes:
perf record -o - | perf script
(gdb) bt
It fails when we try to compare env.arch against uts.machine:
if (!strcmp(uts.machine, session->header.env.arch) ||
(!strcmp(uts.machine, "x86_64") &&
!strcmp(session->header.env.arch, "i386")))
native_arch = true;
In pipe mode, it is tricky to find env.arch at this stage. To keep it
simple, let's just assume native_arch is always true for pipe mode.

In places where the equivalent was already being done, i.e.:
free(a);
a = NULL;
And in placs where struct members are being freed so that if we have
some erroneous reference to its struct, then accesses to freed members
will result in segfaults, which we can detect faster than use after free
to areas that may still have something seemingly valid.

Laura reported that the perf build failed in fedora when we got a glibc

glibc-devel-2.29.9000-26.fc31.x86_64 package.
Add a feature check to avoid providing a gettid() helper in such

Some compilers will complain when using a member of a struct to
initialize another member, in the same struct initialization.
For instance:
debian:8 Debian clang version 3.5.0-10 (tags/RELEASE_350/final) (based on LLVM 3.5.0)
oraclelinux:7 clang version 3.4.2 (tags/RELEASE_34/dot2-final)

1 error generated.
So use an extra variable, initialized just before that struct, to have
the value used in the expressions used to init two of the struct
members.

Konstantin reported problem with default perf record command, which
fails on some AMD servers, because of the default maximum precise
config.
The current fallback mechanism counts on getting ENOTSUP errno for
precise_ip fails, but that's not the case on some AMD servers.
We can fix this by removing the errno check completely, because the
precise_ip fallback is separated. We can just try (if requested by
evsel->precise_max) all possible precise_ip, and if one succeeds we win,
if not, we continue with standard fallback.

Threads are created when we either synthesize PERF_RECORD_FORK events
for pre-existing threads or when we receive PERF_RECORD_FORK events from
the kernel as new threads get created.
We then keep them in machine->threads[].entries rb trees till when we
receive a PERF_RECORD_EXIT, i.e. that thread terminated.
The thread object has a reference count that is grabbed when, for
instance, we keep that thread referenced in struct hist_entry, in 'perf
report' and 'perf top'.
When we receive a PERF_RECORD_EXIT we remove the thread object from the
rb tree and move it to the corresponding machine->threads[].dead list,
then we do a thread__put(), dropping the reference we had for keeping it
in the rb tree.
In thread__put() we were assuming that when the reference count hit zero
we should remove it from the dead list by simply doing a
list_del_init(&thread->node).
That works well when all the thread lifetime is during the machine that
has the list heads lifetime, since we know that we can do the
list_del_init() and it will update the 'dead' list_head.
But in 'perf sched lat' we were doing:
machine__new() (via perf_session__new)
process events, grabbing refcounts to keep those thread objects
in 'perf sched' local data structures.
machine__exit() (via perf_session__delete) which would delete the
'dead' list heads.
And then doing the final thread__put() for the refcounts 'perf sched'
rightfully obtained for keeping those thread object references.
b00m, since thread__put() would do the list_del_init() touching
a dead dead list head.
Fix it by removing all the dead threads from machine->threads[].dead at
machine__exit(), since whatever is there should have refcounts taken by
things like 'perf sched lat', and make thread__put() check if the thread
is in a linked list before removing it from that list.

The 'perf kvm' command set up things so that we can record, report, top,
etc, but not 'script', so make 'perf script' be able to process samples
by allowing to pass guest kallsyms, vmlinux, modules, etc, and if at
least one of those is provided, set perf_guest to true so that guest
samples get properly resolved.
Testing it:
# perf kvm --guest --guestkallsyms /wb/rhel6.kallsyms --guestmodules /wb/rhel6.modules record -e cycles:Gk
^C[ perf record: Woken up 7 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 3.602 MB perf.data.guest (10492 samples) ]
#
# perf evlist -i perf.data.guest

Then, when trying to use perf script to generate a python script and
then process the events after adding a python hook for non-tracepoint
events:
# perf script -i perf.data.guest -g python
generated Python script: perf-script.py
# vim perf-script.py
# tail -2 perf-script.py
def process_event(param_dict):
print(param_dict["symbol"])
#
# perf script -i perf.data.guest -s perf-script.py | head
in trace_begin

vmx_vmexit
vmx_vmexit
vmx_vmexit
vmx_vmexit

vmx_vmexit
vmx_vmexit

#
We'd see just the vmx_vmexit, i.e. the samples from the guest don't show
up.
After this patch:
# perf script --guestkallsyms /wb/rhel6.kallsyms --guestmodules /wb/rhel6.modules -i perf.data.guest -s perf-script.py 2> /dev/null | head -30

Jiri Olsa noticed we need to set 'perf_guest' to true if we want to
process guest samples and I made it be set if one of the guest files
settings get set via the command line options added in this patch, that
match those present in the 'perf kvm' command.
We probably want to have 'perf record', 'perf report' etc to notice that
there are guest samples and do the right thing, which is to look for
files with some suffix that make it be associated with the guest used to
collect the samples, i.e. if a vmlinux file is passed, we can get the
build-id from it, if not some other identifier or simply looking for
"kallsyms.guest", for instance, in the current directory.

The Memory_BW metric generates groups including duration_time, which
maps to a software event.
For some reason this makes the group always not count.
Always put duration_time outside a group when generating metrics. It's
always the same time, so no need to group it.

The target is to compare the performance difference (cycles diff) for
the same basic blocks in different data files.
The same basic block means same function, same start address and same
end address. This patch finds the same basic blocks from different data
files and link them together and resort by the cycles diff.
v3:
---
The block stuffs are maintained by new structure 'block_hist',
so this patch is update accordingly.
v2:
---
Since now the basic block hists is changed to per symbol,
the patch only links the basic block hists for the same
symbol in different data files.

[ sym->name is an array, not a pointer, so no need to check it for NULL, fixes de build in some distros ]

The hist__account_cycles() can account cycles per basic block. The basic
block information is saved in cycles_hist structure.
This patch processes each symbol, get basic blocks from cycles_hist and
add the basic block entries to a new hists (in 'struct block_hist').
Using a hists is because we need to compare, sort and print the basic
blocks later.
v6:
---
Since 'ops' argument is removed from hists__add_entry_block,
update the code accordingly. No functional change.
v5:
---
Since now we still carry block_info in 'struct hist_entry'
we don't need to use our own new/free ops for hist entries.
And the block_info is released in hist_entry__delete.
v3:
---
1. In v2, we put block stuffs in 'struct hist_entry', but
it's not a good design. In v3, we create a new
'struct block_hist' and cast the 'struct hist_entry' to
'struct block_hist' in some places, which can avoid adding
new stuffs in 'struct hist_entry'.
2. abs() -> labs(), in block_cycles_diff_cmp().
v2:
---
v1 adds the basic block entries to per data-file hists
but v2 adds the basic block entries to per symbol hists.
That is to keep current perf-diff format. Will show the
result in next patches.
