718c602d67 perf evlist: Add support for mmapping an AUX area buffer
This patch supports the addition to the kernel of AUX area buffers that
can be mmapped separately from the perf-events buffer.

The AUX buffer can be configured to contain hardware-produced trace
information. The first implementation will support Intel BTS and Intel
PT.

One auxtrace buffer is mmapped per perf-events buffer.  If the requested
auxtrace buffer size is zero, which it will be until further support is
added, then no auxtrace mmapping is attempted.

23d4aad48e perf evlist: Return the first evsel with an invalid filter in apply_filters()
Use of a bad filter currently generates the message:
 Error: failed to set filter with 22 (Invalid argument)

Add the event name to make it clear to which event the filter
failed to apply:
  Error: Failed to set filter "foo" on event sched:sg_lb_stats: 22: Invalid argument

To test it use something like:

 # perf record -e sched:sched_switch -e sched:*fork --filter parent_pid==1 -e sched:*wait* --filter bla usleep 1
  Error: failed to set filter "bla" on event sched:sched_stat_iowait with 22 (Invalid argument)

1be300f4cc perf tools: Make the mmap length autotuning more robust
If /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb is not (power of 2 + PAGE_SIZE_in_kb)
and we let the perf tools do mmap length autosizing based on that, then, for
non-CAP_IPC_LOCK users when /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid is > -1, then
we get an -EINVAL that ends up in:

  Invalid argument

8185e881f9 perf evlist: Do not use hard coded value for a mmap_pages default
So far what is in there by default is what we were using: 512KB + the
control page, but the admin may change that, and if it does to a smaller
value, all calls to tooling for non root users start failing, requiring
that the user manually set --mmap_pages/-m.

Use instead what is in /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb.

0a2138b28f perf evlist: Fixup brown paper bag on "hint" for --mmap-pages cmdline arg
When failing due to asking for a number of mmap pages that is more than
the max, it was suggesting that an even bigger number of mmap pages
should be specified, doh, au contraire!

Before:

  [acme@ssdandy linux]$ trace -m 128 usleep 1
  Error:	Operation not permitted.
  Hint:	Check /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb (516 kB) setting.
  Hint:	Tried using 516 kB.
  Hint:	Try using a bigger -m/--mmap-pages value.
  [acme@ssdandy linux]$

After:

  [acme@ssdandy linux]$ trace -m 128 usleep 1
  Error:	Operation not permitted.
  Hint:	Check /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb (516 kB) setting.
  Hint:	Tried using 516 kB.
  Hint:	Try using a smaller -m/--mmap-pages value.
  [acme@ssdandy linux]$

And to (really) clarify what happens above, when what the user requests
is <= max and even then it fails, a changeset is being made to tell that
this is a per user limit, not per process (in the above example there
was another 'perf trace' running for this user, which was using all the
pages it could use).

f90d194a86 perf evlist: Do not poll events that use the system_wide flag
The system_wide flag causes a selected event to be opened always without
a pid.

Consequently it will never get a POLLHUP, but it is used for tracking in
combination with other events, so it should not need to be polled
anyway.

Therefore don't add it for polling.

3c659eedad perf tools: Add id index
Add an index of the event identifiers, in preparation for Intel PT.

The event id (also called the sample id) is a unique number
allocated by the kernel to the event created by perf_event_open().  Events
can include the event id by having a sample type including PERF_SAMPLE_ID or
PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER.

Currently the main use of the event id is to match an event back to the
evsel to which it belongs i.e. perf_evlist__id2evsel()

The purpose of this patch is to make it possible to match an event back to
the mmap from which it was read.  The reason that is useful is because the
mmap represents a time-ordered context (either for a cpu or for a thread).
Intel PT decodes trace information on that basis.  In full-trace mode, that
information can be recorded when the Intel PT trace is read, but in
sample-mode the Intel PT trace data is embedded in a sample and it is in
that case that the "id index" is needed.

So the mmaps are numbered (idx) and the cpu and tid recorded against the id
by perf_evlist__set_sid_idx() which is called by perf_evlist__mmap_per_evsel().

That information is recorded on the perf.data file in the new "id index".
idx, cpu and tid are added to struct perf_sample_id (which is the node of
evlist's hash table to match ids to evsels).  The information can be
retrieved using perf_evlist__id2sid().  Note however this all depends on
having a sample type including PERF_SAMPLE_ID or PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER,
otherwise ids are not recorded.

The "id index" is a synthesized event record which will be created when
Intel PT sampling is used by calling perf_event__synthesize_id_index().

e4b356b56c perf evlist: Unmap when all refcounts to fd are gone and events drained
As noticed by receiving a POLLHUP for all its pollfd entries.

That will remove the refcount taken in perf_evlist__mmap_per_evsel(),
and when all events are consumed via perf_evlist__mmap_read() +
perf_evlist__mmap_consume(), the ring buffer will be unmap'ed.

Thanks to Jiri Olsa for pointing out that we must wait till all events
are consumed, not being ok to unmmap just when receiving all the
POLLHUPs.

2171a92568 tools lib fd array: Allow associating an integer cookie with each entry
We will use this in perf's evlist class so that it can, at
fdarray__filter() time, to unmap the associated ring buffer.

We may need to have further info associated with each fdarray entry, in
that case we'll make that int array a 'union fdarray_priv' one and put a
pointer there so that users can stash whatever they want there. For now,
an int is enough tho.

v2: Add clarification to the per array entry priv area, as well as make
    it a union, which makes usage a bit longer, but if/when we make it
    use more space by allowing per entry pointers existing users source
    code will not have to be changed, just rebuilt.

1b85337d06 tools lib api: Adopt fdarray class from perf's evlist
The extensible file description array that grew in the perf_evlist class
can be useful for other tools, as it is not something that only evlists
need, so move it to tools/lib/api/fd to ease sharing it.

v2: Don't use {} like in:

 libapi_dirs:
	$(QUIET_MKDIR)mkdir -p $(OUTPUT){fs,fd}/

in Makefiles, as it will not work in some systems, as in ubuntu13.10.

v3: Add fd/*.[ch] to LIBAPIKFS_SOURCES (Fix from Jiri Olsa)

v4: Leave the fcntl(fd, O_NONBLOCK) in the evlist layer, remains to
    be checked if it is really needed there, but has no place in the
    fdarray class (Fix from Jiri Olsa)

v5: Remove evlist details from fdarray grow/filter tests. Improve it a
    bit doing more tests about expected internal state.

We can't just monitor the fds that were mmaped, we need to notice when

stays even after the fd that originally was used to do the mmap call
went away, its only when all the set-output fds for a mmap are gone that
the mmap is.

8179672c2f perf evlist: Monitor POLLERR and POLLHUP events too
We want to know when the fd went away, like when a monitored thread
exits.

If we do not monitor such events, then the tools will wait forever on
events from a vanished thread, like when running:

 $ sleep 5s &
 $ perf record -p `pidof sleep`

This builds upon the kernel patch by Jiri Olsa that actually makes a
poll on those file descriptors to return POLLHUP.

It is also needed to change the tools to use
perf_evlist__filter_pollfd() to check if there are remainings fds to
monitor or if all are gone, in which case they will exit the
poll/mmap/read loop.

5f1c4225f6 perf evlist: Don't run workload if not told to
The perf_evlist__prepare_workload() method works by forking and then
waiting on a fd that must be written to to allow the workload to be
exec()ed.

But if the tool calling it fails to, say, set up the events with which
it wants to sample the workload for, it will not call
perf_evlist__start_workload(), but even in this case the workload ended
up running:

  [acme@zoo linux]$ trace /bin/echo workload ends up running, it should not...
  Couldn't mmap the events: Operation not permitted
  workload ends up running, it should not...
  [acme@zoo linux]$

So check if at least one byte was written before letting exec() be
called.

Now the expected behaviour:

  [acme@zoo linux]$ trace /bin/echo workload ends up running, it should not...
  Couldn't mmap the events: Operation not permitted
  [acme@zoo linux]$

8ad9219e08 perf stat: Fix memory corruption of xyarray when cpumask is used
This patch fixes a memory corruption problem with the xyarray when the
evsel fds get closed at the end of the run_perf_stat() call.

It could be triggered with:

 # perf stat -a -e power/energy-cores/ ls

When cpumask are used by events (.e.g, RAPL or uncores) then the evsel
fds are allocated based on the actual number of CPUs monitored. That
number can be smaller than the total number of CPUs on the system.

The problem arises at the end by perf stat closes the fds twice. When
fds are closed, their entry in the xyarray are set to -1.

The first close() on the evsel is made from __run_perf_stat() and it
uses the actual number of CPUS for the event which is how the xyarray
was allocated for.

The second is from perf_evlist_close() but that one is on the total
number of CPUs in the system, so it assume the xyarray was allocated to
cover it. However it was not, and some writes corrupt memory.

The fix is in perf_evlist_close() is to first try with the evsel->cpus
if present, if not use the evlist->cpus. That fixes the problem.

0050f7aa18 perf evlist: Introduce evlist__for_each() & friends
For the common evsel list traversal, so that it becomes more compact.

Use the opportunity to start ditching the 'perf_' from 'perf_evlist__',
as discussed, as the whole conversion touches a lot of places, lets do
it piecemeal when we have the chance due to other work, like in this
case.

f26e1c7cb2 perf evlist: Close fds on destructor
Since it is safe to call perf_evlist__close() multiple times, autoclose
it and remove the calls to the close from existing tools, reducing the
tooling boilerplate.

735f7e0bbe perf evlist: Move the SIGUSR1 error reporting logic to prepare_workload
So that we have the boilerplate in the preparation method, instead of
open coded in tools wanting the reporting when the exec fails.

f33cbe72e6 perf evlist: Send the errno in the signal when workload fails
When a tool uses perf_evlist__start_workload and the supplied workload
fails (e.g.: its binary wasn't found), perror was being used to print
the error reason.

This is undesirable, as the caller may be a GUI, when it wants to have
total control of the error reporting process.

So move to using sigaction(SA_SIGINFO) + siginfo_t->sa_value->sival_int
to communicate to the caller the errno and let it print it using the UI
of its choosing.

046625231a perf tools: Introduce zfree
For the frequent idiom of:

   free(ptr);
   ptr = NULL;

Make it expect a pointer to the pointer being freed, so that it becomes
clear at first sight that the variable being freed is being modified.

553873e1df tools/: Convert to new topic libraries
Move debugfs.* to api/fs/. We have a common tools/lib/api/ place where
the Makefile lives and then we place the headers in subdirs.

For example, all the fs-related stuff goes to tools/lib/api/fs/ from
which we get libapikfs.a (acme got almost the naming he wanted :-)) and
we link it into the tools which need it - in this case perf and
tools/vm/page-types.

acme:

"Looking at the implementation, I think some tools can even link
directly to the .o files, avoiding the .a file altogether.

But that is just an optimization/finer granularity tools/lib/
cherrypicking that toolers can make use of."

Fixup documentation cleaning target while at it.
