evlist contains cpus and all_cpus. all_cpus is the union of the cpu maps
of all evsels.
For non-task targets, cpus is set to be cpus requested from the command
line, defaulting to all online cpus if no cpus are specified.
For an uncore event, all_cpus may be just CPU 0 or every online CPU.
This causes all_cpus to have fewer values than the cpus variable which
is confusing given the 'all' in the name.
To try to make the behavior clearer, rename cpus to user_requested_cpus
and add comments on the two struct variables.

A common problem is confusing CPU map indices with the CPU, by wrapping
the CPU with a struct then this is avoided. This approach is similar to
atomic_t.
Committer notes:
To make it build with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 these files needed the
conversions to 'struct perf_cpu' usage:
tools/perf/util/bpf_counter.c
tools/perf/util/bpf_counter_cgroup.c
tools/perf/util/bpf_ftrace.c
Also perf_env__get_cpu() was removed back in "perf cpumap: Switch
cpu_map__build_map to cpu function".
Additionally these needed to be fixed for the ARM builds to complete:
tools/perf/arch/arm/util/cs-etm.c
tools/perf/arch/arm64/util/pmu.c

The signal setup code and evlist__prepare_workload() can be used for
other subcommands. Let's move them out of the __cmd_ftrace(). Then
it doesn't need to pass argc and argv.
On the other hand, select_tracer() is specific to the 'trace'
subcommand so it'd better moving it into the __cmd_ftrace().

The '-g/-G' options have already implied function_graph tracer should be
used instead of function tracer. So we don't need extra option
'--tracer' in this case.
This patch changes the behavior as below:
- If '-g' or '-G' option is on, then function_graph tracer is used.
- If '-T' or '-N' option is on, then function tracer is used.
- The function_graph has priority over function tracer.
- The option '--tracer' only take effect if neither -g/-G nor -T/-N
is specified.
Here are some examples.
This will start tracing all functions using default tracer:
$ sudo perf ftrace
This will trace all functions using function graph tracer:
$ sudo perf ftrace -G '*'
This will trace function vfs_read using function graph tracer:
$ sudo perf ftrace -G vfs_read
This will trace function vfs_read using function tracer:
$ sudo perf ftrace -T vfs_read
Committer notes:
Using '-h -G' will tell what that option is about, so to further clarify
the above examples:
# perf ftrace -h -G
-G, --graph-funcs <func> Set graph filter on given functions
# perf ftrace -h -g
-g, --nograph-funcs <func> Set nograph filter on given functions
# perf ftrace -h -T
-T, --trace-funcs <func> trace given functions only
# perf ftrace -h -N
-N, --notrace-funcs <func> do not trace given functions

This align ftrace to other perf sub-commands that if no target specified
then we trace all functions.

Extend error messages to mention CAP_PERFMON capability as an option to
substitute CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability for secure system performance
monitoring and observability operations. Make
perf_event_paranoid_check() and __cmd_ftrace() to be aware of
CAP_PERFMON capability.
CAP_PERFMON implements the principle of least privilege for performance
monitoring and observability operations (POSIX IEEE 1003.1e 2.2.2.39
principle of least privilege: A security design principle that states
that a process or program be granted only those privileges (e.g.,
capabilities) necessary to accomplish its legitimate function, and only
for the time that such privileges are actually required)
For backward compatibility reasons access to perf_events subsystem remains
open for CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileged processes but CAP_SYS_ADMIN usage for
secure perf_events monitoring is discouraged with respect to CAP_PERFMON
capability.
Committer testing:
Using a libcap with this patch:

+#define CAP_LAST_CAP CAP_PERFMON
#define cap_valid(x) ((x) >= 0 && (x) <= CAP_LAST_CAP)
Note that using '38' in place of 'cap_perfmon' works to some degree with
an old libcap, its only when cap_get_flag() is called that libcap
performs an error check based on the maximum value known for
capabilities that it will fail.
This makes determining the default of perf_event_attr.exclude_kernel to
fail, as it can't determine if CAP_PERFMON is in place.
Using 'perf top -e cycles' avoids the default check and sets
perf_event_attr.exclude_kernel to 1.

The buffer containing the string used to set cpumask is overwritten at
the end of the string later in cpu_map__snprint_mask due to not enough
memory space, when there is only one cpu.
And thus causes the following failure:
$ perf ftrace ls
failed to reset ftrace
$
This patch fixes the calculation of the cpumask string size.
