b9fb930477 perf hist: Only allocate callchain_node if processing callchains
The struct callchain_node size is 120 bytes, that are never used when
there are no callchains or '-g none' is specified, so conditionally
allocate it, reducing sizeof(struct hist_entry) from 210 bytes to only
96, greatly speeding the non-callchain processing.

71cf8b8ff7 perf kmem: Fixup the symbol address before using it
We get absolute addresses in the events, but relative ones from the
symbol subsystem, so calculate the absolute address by asking for the
map where the symbol was found, that has the place where the DSO was
actually loaded.

For the core kernel this poses no problems if the kernel is not
relocated by things like kexec, or if we use /proc/kallsyms, but for
modules we were getting really large, negative offsets.

e727ca73f8 perf kmem: Resolve kernel symbols again
Due to the assumption in perf_session__new that the kernel maps would be
created using the fake PERF_RECORD_MMAP event in a perf.data file 'perf
kmem --stat caller', that doesn't have such event, ends up not being
able to resolve the kernel addresses.

Fix it by calling perf_session__create_kernel_maps() in __cmd_kmem().

a4e3b956a8 perf hist: Replace ->print() routines by ->snprintf() equivalents
Then hist_entry__fprintf will just us the newly introduced
hist_entry__snprintf, add the newline and fprintf it to the supplied
FILE descriptor.

This allows us to remove the use_browser checking in the color_printf
routines, that now got color_snprintf variants too.

The newt TUI browser (and other GUIs that may come in the future) don't
have to worry about stdio specific stuff in the strings they get from
the se->snprintf routines and instead use whatever means to do the
equivalent.

Also the newt TUI browser don't have to use the fmemopen() hack, instead
it can use the se->snprintf routines directly. For now tho use the
hist_entry__snprintf routine to reduce the patch size.

70162138c9 perf record: Add a fallback to the reference relocation symbol
Usually "_text" is enough, but I received reports that its not always
available, so fallback to "_stext" for the symbol we use to check if we
need to apply any relocation to all the symbols in the kernel symtab,
for when, for instance, kexec is being used.

5f4d3f8816 perf report: Add progress bars
For when we are processing the events and inserting the entries in the
browser.

Experimentation here: naming "ui_something" we may be treading into
creating a TUI/GUI set of routines that can then be implemented in terms
of multiple backends.

Also the time it takes for adding things to the "browser" takes, visually
(I guess I should do some profiling here ;-) ), more time than for
processing the events...

That means we probably need to create a custom hist_entry browser, so
that we reuse the structures we have in place instead of duplicating
them in newt.

But progress was made and at least we can see something while long files
are being loaded, that must be one of UI 101 bullet points :-)

96415e4d3f perf symbols: Avoid unnecessary symbol loading when dso list is specified
We were performing the full thread__find_addr_location
operation, i.e. resolving to a map/dso _and_ loading its symbols
when we can optimize it by first calling thread__find_addr_map
to find just the map/dso, check if it is one that we are
interested in (passed via --dsos/-d in 'perf annotate', 'perf
report', etc) and if not avoid loading the symtab.

Nice speedup when we know which DSO we're interested in.

It (ab)uses the only tree widget in newt, that is actually a

is usable but we really need to create a custom widget tree so
that we can use the data structures we have (hist_entry rb_tree
+ callchain rb_tree + lists), so that we reduce the memory
footprint by not creating a mirror set of data structures in the
newtCheckboxTree widget.

301fde27c7 perf: Fix orphan callchain branches
Callchains have markers inside their capture to tell we
enter a context (kernel, user, ...).

Those are not displayed in the callchains but they are
incidentally an active part of the radix tree where
callchains are stored, just like any other address.

If we have the two following callchains:

addr1 -> addr2 -> user context -> addr3
addr1 -> addr2 -> user context -> addr4
addr1 -> addr2 -> addr 5

This is pretty common if addr1 and addr2 are part of an
interrupt path, addr3 and addr4 are user addresses and
addr5 is a kernel non interrupt path.

This will be stored as follows in the tree:

                   addr1
                   addr2
                   /   \
                  /     addr5
            user context
               /    \
             addr3  addr4

But we ignore the context markers in the report, hence
the addr3 and addr4 will appear as orphan branches:

    |--28.30%-- hrtimer_interrupt
    |          smp_apic_timer_interrupt
    |          apic_timer_interrupt
    |          |           <------------- here, no parent!
    |          |          |
    |          |          |--11.11%-- 0x7fae7bccb875

Fix this by removing the context markers when we process the
callchains to the tree.

55632770d7 perf events: Fix false positive build warning with older GCC's
gcc 4.2.1 produces:

 util/probe-event.c: In function 'add_perf_probe_events':
 util/probe-event.c:883: warning: 'tev' may be used uninitialized in this function
 make: *** [util/probe-event.o] Error 1

Newer GCCs get this right.

To work it around, initialize the variable to NULL so that older GCCs see
it as initialized too.

d6d901c23a perf events: Change perf parameter --pid to process-wide collection instead of thread-wide
Parameter --pid (or -p) of perf currently means a thread-wide
collection. For exmaple, if a process whose id is 8888 has 10
threads, 'perf top -p 8888' just collects the main thread
statistics. That's misleading. Users are used to attach a whole
process when debugging a process by gdb. To follow normal usage
style, the patch change --pid to process-wide collection and add
--tid (-t) to mean a thread-wide collection.

Usage example is:

 # perf top -p 8888
 # perf record -p 8888 -f sleep 10
 # perf stat -p 8888 -f sleep 10

Above commands collect the statistics of all threads of process
8888.

46be604b5b perf record: Enable counters only when kernel is execing subcommand
'perf record' starts counters before subcommand is execed, so
the statistics is not precise because it includes data of some
preparation steps. I fix it with the patch.

In addition, change the condition to fork/exec subcommand. If
there is a subcommand parameter, perf always fork/exec it. The
usage example is:

 # perf record -f -a sleep 10

So this command could collect statistics for 10 seconds
precisely. User still could stop it by CTRL+C. Without the new
capability, user could only input CTRL+C to stop it without
precise time clock.

6be2850eff perf stat: Enable counters when collecting process-wide or system-wide data
Command 'perf stat' doesn't enable counters when collecting an
existing (by -p) process or system-wide statistics. Fix the
issue.

Change the condition of fork/exec subcommand. If there is a
subcommand parameter, perf always forks/execs it. The usage
example is:

 # perf stat -a sleep 10

So this command could collect statistics for 10 seconds
precisely. User still could stop it by CTRL+C. Without the new
capability, user could only use CTRL+C to stop it without
precise time clock.

Another issue is 'perf stat -a' consumes 100% time of a full
single logical cpu. It has a bad impact on running workload.

Fix it by adding a sleep(1) in the while(!done) loop in function
run_perf_stat.

3b0d516463 perf probe: Fix !dwarf build
Fix the !drawf build.

This uses the existing NO_DWARF_SUPPORT mechanism we use for that,
but it's really fragile and needs a cleanup. (in a separate patch)

1) Such uses:

 #ifndef NO_DWARF_SUPPORT

are double inverted logic a'la 'not not'. Instead the flag should
be called DWARF_SUPPORT.

2) Furthermore, assymetric #ifdef polluted code flow like:

        if (need_dwarf)
 #ifdef NO_DWARF_SUPPORT
                die("Debuginfo-analysis is not supported");
 #else   /* !NO_DWARF_SUPPORT */
                pr_debug("Some probes require debuginfo.\n");

        fd = open_vmlinux();

is very fragile and not acceptable. Instead of that helper functions
should be created and the dwarf/no-dwarf logic should be separated more
cleanly.

3) Local variable #ifdefs like this:

 #ifndef NO_DWARF_SUPPORT
        int fd;
 #endif

Are fragile as well and should be eliminated. Helper functions achieve
that too.

 ./perf probe --add 'vfs_read file->f_op->read file->f_path.dentry'

Note that '>' can be interpreted as redirection in command-line.
