Fixes bug noted by Jiri in https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/6/13/755 and
caused by commit d49dadea78 ("perf tools: Make 'trace' or
'trace_fields' sort key default for tracepoint events") not taking into
account that evlist is empty in pipe-mode.
Before this commit, pipe mode will only show bogus "100.00% N/A"
instead of correct output as follows:
$ perf record -o - sleep 1 | perf report -i -
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
#
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.000 MB - ]
#
# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 8 of event 'cycles:ppH'
# Event count (approx.): 145658
#
# Overhead Trace output
# ........ ............
#
100.00% N/A
Correct output, after patch:
$ perf record -o - sleep 1 | perf report -i -
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
#

Often it is interesting to know how costly a given source line is in
total. Previously, one had to build these sums manually based on all
addresses that pointed to the same source line. This patch introduces
srcline as a sort key, which will do the aggregation for us.
Paired with the recent addition of showing inline frames, this makes
perf report much more useful for many C++ work loads.
The following shows the new feature in action. First, let's show the
status quo output when we sort by address. The result contains many hist
entries that generate the same output:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
$ perf report --stdio --inline -g address

This patch introduces a cgroup identifier entry field in perf report to
identify or distinguish data of different cgroups. It uses the device
number and inode number of cgroup namespace, included in perf data with
the new PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES event, as cgroup identifier.
With the assumption that each container is created with it's own cgroup
namespace, this allows assessment/analysis of multiple containers at
once.
A simple test for this would be to clone a few processes passing
SIGCHILD & CLONE_NEWCROUP flags to each of them, execute shell and run
different workloads on each of those contexts, while running perf
record command with --namespaces option.
Shown below is the output of perf report, sorted with cgroup identifier,
on perf.data generated with the above test scenario, clearly indicating
one context's considerable use of kernel memory in comparison with
others:
$ perf report -s cgroup_id,sample --stdio
#
# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 5K of event 'kmem:kmalloc'
# Event count (approx.): 5965
#
# Overhead cgroup id (dev/inode) Samples
# ........ ..................... ............
#
81.27% 3/0xeffffffb 4848
16.24% 3/0xf00000d0 969
1.16% 3/0xf00000ce 69
0.82% 3/0xf00000cf 49
0.50% 0/0x0 30
While this is a start, there is further scope of improving this. For
example, instead of cgroup namespace's device and inode numbers, dev
and inode numbers of some or all namespaces may be used to distinguish
which processes are running in a given container context.
Also, scripts to map device and inode info to containers sounds
plausible for better tracing of containers.

Add new sort key 'symbol_size' to allow user to sort by symbol size, or
(more usefully) display the symbol size using --fields=...,symbol_size.
Committer note:
Testing it together with the recently added -q, to remove the headers,
and using the '+' sign with -s, to add the symbol_size sort order to
the default, which is '-s/--sort comm,dso,symbol':

The pid sort entry currently aligns pids with 5 digits, which is not
enough for current 4 million pids limit.
This leads to unaligned ':' header-data output when we display 7 digits

This implements having multiple sort keys in a single hierarchy level.
Originally only single sort key is supported for each level, but now
using the group syntax with '{ }', it can set more than one sort key in
one level. Note that now it needs to quote in order to prevent shell
interpretation.
For example:
$ perf report --hierarchy -s '{comm,dso},sym'
...
# Overhead Command / Shared Object / Symbol
# .............. ..........................................
#
48.67% swapper [kernel.vmlinux]
34.42% [k] intel_idle
1.30% [k] __tick_nohz_idle_enter
1.03% [k] cpuidle_reflect
8.87% firefox libpthread-2.22.so
6.60% [.] __GI___libc_recvmsg
1.18% [.] pthread_cond_signal@@GLIBC_2.3.2
1.09% [.] 0x000000000000ff4b
6.11% Xorg libc-2.22.so
5.27% [.] __memcpy_sse2_unaligned
In the above example, the command name and the shared object name are
shown on the same line but the symbol name is on the different line.
Since the first two are grouped by '{}', they are in the same level.

That got broken by d3a72fd818 ("perf report: Fix indentation of
dynamic entries in hierarchy"), by using the evlist in setup_sorting()
without checking if it is NULL, as done in some 'perf test' entries:
$ find tools/ -name "*.c" | xargs grep 'setup_sorting(NULL);'
tools/perf/tests/hists_output.c: setup_sorting(NULL);
tools/perf/tests/hists_output.c: setup_sorting(NULL);

$
Fix it.

The column width of dynamic entries is updated when comparing hist
entries. However some unique entries can miss the chance to update. So
move the update to output resort stage to make sure every entry will get
called before display.
To do that, abuse ->sort callback to update the width when the third
argument is NULL. When resorting entries in normal path, it never be
NULL so it should be fine IMHO.

When dynamic sort key is used it might not show pretty printed output.
This is because the trace output was not set only for the first dynamic
sort key. During hierarchy_insert_entry() it missed to pass the
trace_output to dynamic entries. Also even if it did, only first entry
will have it. Subsequent entries might set it during collapsing stage
but it's not guaranteed.
