This reverts commit 50e200f079 ("perf tools: Default to cpu// for
events v5")
The fixup cannot handle the case that
new style format(which without //) mixed with
other different formats.
For example,
group events with new style format: {mem-stores,mem-loads}
some hardware event + new style event: cycles,mem-loads
Cache event + new style event: LLC-loads,mem-loads
Raw event + new style event:
cpu/event=0xc8,umask=0x08/,mem-loads
old style event and new stytle mixture: mem-stores,cpu/mem-loads/

When 'perf top' is run, one can't easily find a difference
between -z option and normal output.
So I added a visual cue to know whether it is the zeroing or not.
Output is as below.
Before:
$ perf top
Samples: 61K of event 'cycles', Event count (approx.): 3908136933
Overhead Shared Object Symbol
1.42% firefox [.] 0x0000000000011e76
1.32% libpthread-2.17.so [.] pthread_mutex_lock
If you press key 'z' or run with zero option like '$ perf top --zero', it is as below.
After:
Samples: 61K of event 'cycles', Event count (approx.): 3908136933 [z]
Overhead Shared Object Symbol
1.42% firefox [.] 0x0000000000011e76
1.32% libpthread-2.17.so [.] pthread_mutex_lock

daemon being developed by Borislav Petkov, Robert Richter and Jean Pihet.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
* Make perf_evlist__open(evlist, NULL, NULL), i.e. without cpu and thread
maps mean syswide monitoring, reducing the boilerplate for tools that
only want system wide mode. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

This patch fixes off-by-one errors in the management of maps.
A map is defined by start address and length as implemented by
map__new():
map__init(map, type, start, start + len, pgoff, dso);
map->start = addr;
map->end = end;
Consequently, the actual address range is [start; end[ map->end is the
first byte outside the range.
This patch fixes two bugs where upper bound checking was off-by-one.
In V2, we fix map_groups__fixup_overlappings() some more where
map->start was off-by-one as reported by Jiri.

A segfault happens on 'perf test hists_link' because we end up using a
struct machines on the stack, and then machines__init() was not
initializing the newly introduced rb_root, just the existing list_head.
When we introduced struct dsos, to group the two ways to store dsos,
i.e. the linked list and the rbtree, we didn't turned the initialization
done in:
machines__init(machines->host) ->
machine__init() ->
INIT_LIST_HEAD
into a dsos__init() to keep on initializing the list_head but _as well_
initializing the rb_root, oops.
All worked because outside perf-test we probably zalloc the whole thing
which ends up initializing it in to NULL.
So the problem looks contained to 'perf test' that uses it on stack,
etc.

Attempting to build the perf tool for an arm64 target results in the
following failure:

arch/arm64/util/unwind-libunwind.c:77:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'pr_err'
pr_err("unwind: invalid reg id %d\n", regnum);
^
arch/arm64/util/unwind-libunwind.c:77:3: error: nested extern declaration of 'pr_err'
This is due to commit 84f5d36f48 ("perf tools: Move pr_* debug macros
into debug object") moving the pr_* macros into a new header file, but
failing to update architectures other than x86.
This patch adds the missing include, and fixes the build again.

With workload that spawns and destroys many threads and processes, it
was found that perf-mem could took a long time to post-process the perf
data after the target workload had completed its operation.
The performance bottleneck was found to be the lookup and insertion of
the new DSO structures (thousands of them in this case).
In a dual-socket Ivy-Bridge E7-4890 v2 machine (30-core, 60-thread), the
perf profile below shows what perf was doing after the profiled AIM7
shared workload completed:
- 83.94% perf libc-2.11.3.so [.] __strcmp_sse42
- __strcmp_sse42
- 99.82% map__new
machine__process_mmap_event
perf_session_deliver_event
perf_session__process_event
__perf_session__process_events
cmd_record
cmd_mem
run_builtin
main
__libc_start_main
- 13.17% perf perf [.] __dsos__findnew
__dsos__findnew
map__new
machine__process_mmap_event
perf_session_deliver_event
perf_session__process_event
__perf_session__process_events
cmd_record
cmd_mem
run_builtin
main
__libc_start_main
So about 97% of CPU times were spent in the map__new() function trying
to insert new DSO entry into the DSO linked list. The whole
post-processing step took about 9 minutes.
The DSO structures are currently searched linearly. So the total
processing time will be proportional to n^2.
To overcome this performance problem, the DSO code is modified to also
put the DSO structures in a RB tree sorted by its long name in
additional to being in a simple linked list. With this change, the
processing time will become proportional to n*log(n) which will be much
quicker for large n. However, the short name will still be searched
using the old linear searching method. With that patch in place, the
same perf-mem post-processing step took less than 30 seconds to
complete.

When given the number of threads to requeue at once by user input,
there's always the risk of this value being larger than the total number
of threads. This doesn't make any sense, and the kernel can easily deal
with such sort of situations, hence no big deal. We should however
prevent bogus output such as:
./perf bench --repeat 2 futex requeue -q 10
Run summary [PID 22210]: Requeuing 4 threads (from [private] 0x99ef3c to 0x99ef38), 10 at a time.

Using 'perf trace' for mmap is truncating return values by stripping the
top 32 bits, actually printing only the lower 32 bits.
This was because the ret value was of an 'int' type and not a 'long'
type.
The Problem:
991258501.244 ( 0.004 ms): mmap(len: 40001536, prot: READ|WRITE, flags: PRIVATE|ANONYMOUS, fd: -1) = 0x56691000
991258501.257 ( 0.000 ms): minfault [_int_malloc+0x1038] => //anon@0x7fa056691008 //(d.)
The first line shows an mmap, which succeeds and returns 0x56691000.
However the next line shows a memory access to that virtual memory area,
specifically to 0x7fa056691008. The upper 32 bit is lost due to the
problem mentioned above, and thus mmap's return value didn't have the
upper 0x7fa0.
Tested on 3.17-rc5 from the linus's tree, and the HEAD of tip/master

On systems with more than one socket perf stat --per-core would either
segfault or stop before outputting all cores.
The problem was that the output code referenced the id including the
socket number in the higher bits, which is far beyond any per cpu array.
Mask out the socket number before referencing cpus in abs_printout.
I also renamed the variable in nsec_printout to be clear what it is,
even though it doesn't reference cpus.
