9bce13ea88 perf record: Disable debuginfod by default
Fedora 35 sets DEBUGINFOD_URLS by default, which might lead to
unexpected stalls in perf record exit path, when we try to cache
profiled binaries.

  # DEBUGINFOD_PROGRESS=1 ./perf record -a
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  Downloading from https://debuginfod.fedoraproject.org/ 447069
  Downloading from https://debuginfod.fedoraproject.org/ 1502175
  Downloading \^Z

Disabling DEBUGINFOD_URLS by default in perf record and adding
debuginfod option and .perfconfig variable support to enable id.

  Default without debuginfo processing:
  # perf record -a

  Using system debuginfod setup:
  # perf record -a --debuginfod

  Using custom debuginfd url:
  # perf record -a --debuginfod='https://evenbetterdebuginfodserver.krava'

Adding single perf_debuginfod_setup function and using
it also in perf buildid-cache command.

9a73c30854 perf buildid-cache: Support --purge-all option
User can remove files from cache using --remove/--purge options but both
needs list of files as an argument. It's not convenient when you want to
flush out entire cache. Add an option to purge all files from cache.

Ex,
  # perf buildid-cache -l
    8a86ef73e44067bca52cc3f6cd3e5446c783391c /tmp/a.out
    ebe71fdcf4b366518cc154d570a33cd461a51c36 /tmp/a.out.1
  # perf buildid-cache -P -v
    Removing /tmp/a.out (8a86ef73e44067bca52cc3f6cd3e5446c783391c): Ok
    Removing /tmp/a.out.1 (ebe71fdcf4b366518cc154d570a33cd461a51c36): Ok
    Purged all: Ok

f045b8c4b3 perf buildid-cache: Support binary objects from other namespaces
Teach buildid-cache how to add, remove, and update binary objects from
other mount namespaces.  Allow probe events tracing binaries in
different namespaces to add their objects to the probe and build-id
caches too.  As a handy side effect, this also lets us access SDT probes
in binaries from alternate mount namespaces.

6430a94ead perf buildid-cache: Scan and import user SDT events to probe cache
perf buildid-cache --add <binary> scans given binary and add
the SDT events to probe cache. "sdt_" prefix is appended for
all SDT providers to avoid event-name clash with other pre-defined
events. It is possible to use the cached SDT events as other cached
events, via perf probe --add "sdt_<provider>:<event>=<event>".

e.g.
  ----
  # perf buildid-cache --add /lib/libc-2.17.so
  # perf probe --cache --list | head -n 5
  /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so (a6fb821bdf53660eb2c29f778757aef294d3d392):
  sdt_libc:setjmp=setjmp
  sdt_libc:longjmp=longjmp
  sdt_libc:longjmp_target=longjmp_target
  sdt_libc:memory_heap_new=memory_heap_new
  # perf probe -x /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so \
    -a sdt_libc:memory_heap_new=memory_heap_new
  Added new event:
    sdt_libc:memory_heap_new (on memory_heap_new
   in /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e sdt_libc:memory_heap_new -aR sleep 1

  # perf probe -l
    sdt_libc:memory_heap_new (on new_heap+183 in /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)
  ----

Note that SDT event entries in probe-cache file is somewhat different
from normal cached events. Normal one starts with "#", but SDTs are
starting with "%".

8d8c8e4cb3 perf buildid-cache: Add --purge FILE to remove all caches of FILE
Add --purge FILE to remove all caches of FILE.

Since the current --remove FILE removes a cache which has
same build-id of given FILE. Since the command takes a
FILE path, it can confuse user who tries to remove cache
about FILE path.

  -----
  # ./perf buildid-cache -v --add ./perf
  Adding 133b7b5486d987a5ab5c3ebf4ea14941f45d4d4f ./perf: Ok
  # (update the ./perf binary)
  # ./perf buildid-cache -v --remove ./perf
  Removing 305bbd1be68f66eca7e2d78db294653031edfa79 ./perf: FAIL
  ./perf wasn't in the cache
  -----
Actually, the --remove's FAIL is not shown, it just silently fails.

So, this patch adds --purge FILE action for such usecase.

perf buildid-cache --purge FILE removes all caches which has same FILE
path.

In other words, it removes all caches including old binaries.

  -----
  # ./perf buildid-cache -v --add ./perf
  Adding 133b7b5486d987a5ab5c3ebf4ea14941f45d4d4f ./perf: Ok
  # (update the ./perf binary)
  # ./perf buildid-cache -v --purge ./perf
  Removing 133b7b5486d987a5ab5c3ebf4ea14941f45d4d4f ./perf: Ok
  -----

BTW, if you want to purge all the caches, remove ~/.debug/* .

a50d11a10c perf buildid-cache: Add new buildid cache if update target is not cached
Add new buildid cache if the update target file is not cached.

This can happen when an old binary is replaced by new one after caching
the old one. In this case, user sees his operation just failed.

But it does not look straight, since user just pass the binary "path",
not "build-id".

  ----
  # ./perf buildid-cache --add ./perf
  (update ./perf to new binary)
  # ./perf buildid-cache --update ./perf
  ./perf wasn't in the cache
  #
  ----

This patch adds given new binary to cache if the new binary is
not cached. So we'll not see the above error.

  ----
  # ./perf buildid-cache --add ./perf
  (update ./perf to new binary)
  # ./perf buildid-cache --update ./perf

fc1b691d76 perf buildid-cache: Add ability to add kcore to the cache
kcore can be used to view the running kernel object code.  However,
kcore changes as modules are loaded and unloaded, and when the kernel
decides to modify its own code.  Consequently it is useful to create a
copy of kcore at a particular time.  Unlike vmlinux, kcore is not unique
for a given build-id.  And in addition, the kallsyms and modules files
are also needed.  The tool therefore creates a directory:

	~/.debug/[kernel.kcore]/<build-id>/<YYYYmmddHHMMSShh>

which contains: kcore, kallsyms and modules.

Note that the copied kcore contains only code sections.  See the
kcore_copy() function for how that is determined.

The tool will not make additional copies of kcore if there is already
one with the same modules at the same addresses.

Currently, perf tools will not look for kcore in the cache.  That is
addressed in another patch.

fbb6976c2f perf buildid-cache: Add option to show build ids that are missing in the cache
This will allow to connect with services being put in place by distros such as
Fedora, where one can retrieve DSOs by their build-id.

Example usage:

	for buildid in $(perf buildid-cache --missing perf.data | cut -d' ' -f1) ; do
		echo "trying to get $buildid"
		wget -q https://darkserver.fedoraproject.org/buildids/$buildid
		cat $buildid ; echo
		rm -f $buildid
	done

Now its just a matter of some porcelain to get the details provided by such a
service, retrieve the file and use 'perf buildid-cache --add $FILE' to insert
it in the cache, then use 'perf report' or 'annotate' that will find the
required files in the cache.

 See 'perf help COMMAND' for more information on a specific command.

[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]#

The new 'perf inject' command hadn't so it wasn't appearing on that list.

Also fix the long option, that should have no spaces in it, rename the faulty one
to be '--build-ids', instead of '--inject build-ids'.

ef12a14130 perf buildid-cache: Add new command to manage build-id cache
For now it just has operations to examine a given file, find its
build-id and add or remove it to/from the cache.

Useful, for instance, when adding binaries sent together with a
perf.data file, so that we can add them to the cache and have
the tools find it when resolving symbols.

It'll also manage the size of the cache like 'ccache' does.
