Note that since the thread was already inserted to the session
list, it will be released when the session is released.
Also, in perf_session__register_idle_thread() failure path,
the thread should be put before returning.
Refcnt debugger shows that the perf_session__register_idle_thread
gets the returned thread, but the caller (__cmd_top) does not
put the returned idle thread.

If a session contains no events, we can get stuck in an infinite loop in
__perf_session__process_events, with a non-zero file_size and data_offset, but
a zero data_size.
In this case, we can mmap the entirety of the file (consisting of the file and
attribute headers), and fetch_mmaped_event will correctly refuse to read any
(unmapped and non-existent) event headers. This causes
__perf_session__process_events to unmap the file and retry with the exact same
parameters, getting stuck in an infinite loop.
This has been observed to result in an exit-time hang when counting
rare/unschedulable events with perf record, and can be triggered artificially
with the script below:
----
#!/bin/sh
printf "REPRO: launching perf\n";
./perf record -e software/config=9/ sleep 1 &
PERF_PID=$!;
sleep 0.002;
kill -2 $PERF_PID;
printf "REPRO: waiting for perf (%d) to exit...\n" "$PERF_PID";
wait $PERF_PID;
printf "REPRO: perf exited\n";
----
To avoid this, have __perf_session__process_events bail out early when
the file has no data (i.e. it has no events).
Commiter note:
I only managed to reproduce this when setting
/proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict to '1' and changing the code to
purposefully not process any samples and no synthesized samples, i.e.
kptr_restrict prevents 'record' from synthesizing the kernel mmaps for
vmlinux + modules and since it is a workload started from perf, we don't
synthesize mmap/comm records for existing threads.
Adrian Hunter managed to reproduce it in his environment tho.

The 'struct machine' represents the machine where the samples were/are
being collected, and we also have a 'struct perf_env' with extra details
about such machine, that we were collecting at 'perf.data' creation time
but we also needed when no perf.data file is being used, such as in
'perf top'.
So, get those structs closer together, as they provide a bigger picture
of the sample's environment.
In 'perf session', when the file argument is NULL, we can assume that
the tool is sampling the running machine, so point machine->env to
the global put in place in previous patches, while set it to the
perf_header.env one when reading from a file.
This paves the way for machine->env to be used in
perf_event__preprocess_sample to populate addr_location.socket.

This patch stores the cpu socket_id and core_id in a perf.data header,
and reads them into the perf_env struct when processing perf.data files.
The changes modifies the CPU_TOPOLOGY section, making sure it is
backward/forward compatible.
The patch checks the section size before reading the core and socket ids.
It never reads data crossing the section boundary. An old perf binary
without this patch can also correctly read the perf.data from a new perf
with this patch.
Because the new info is added at the end of the cpu_topology section, an
old perf tool ignores the extra data.
Examples:
1. New perf with this patch read perf.data from an old perf without the
patch:
$ perf_new report -i perf_old.data --header-only -I
......
# sibling threads : 33
# sibling threads : 34
# sibling threads : 35
# Core ID and Socket ID information is not available
# node0 meminfo : total = 32823872 kB, free = 29315548 kB
# node0 cpu list : 0-17,36-53
......
2. Old perf without the patch reads perf.data from a new perf with the
patch:
$ perf_old report -i perf_new.data --header-only -I
......
# sibling threads : 33
# sibling threads : 34
# sibling threads : 35
# node0 meminfo : total = 32823872 kB, free = 29190932 kB
# node0 cpu list : 0-17,36-53
......
3. New perf read new perf.data:
$ perf_new report -i perf_new.data --header-only -I
......
# sibling threads : 33
# sibling threads : 34
# sibling threads : 35
# CPU 0: Core ID 0, Socket ID 0

cycles is a new branch_info field available on some CPUs that indicates
the time deltas between branches in the LBR.
Add a sort key and output code for the cycles to allow to display the
basic block cycles individually in perf report.
We also pass in the cycles for weight when LBRs are processed, which
allows to get global and local weight, to get an estimate of the total
cost.
And also print the cycles information for perf report -D. I also added
printing for the previously missing LBR flags (mispredict etc.)

The semantic associated in tools/perf/ with foo__delete(instance) is to
release all resources referenced by 'instance' members and then release
the memory for 'instance' itself.
The perf_session_env__delete() function isn't doing this, it just does
the first part, but the space used by 'instance' itself isn't freed, as
it is embedded in a larger structure, that will be freed at other stage.
For these cases we se foo__exit(), i.e. the usage is:
void foo__delete(foo)
{
if (foo) {
foo__exit(foo);
free(foo);
}
}
But when we have something like:
struct bar {
struct foo foo;
. . .
}
Then we can't really call foo__delete(&bar.foo), we must have this
instead:
void bar__exit(bar)
{
foo__exit(&bar.foo);
/* free other bar-> resources */
}
void bar__delete(bar)
{
if (bar) {
bar__exit(bar);
free(bar);
}
}
So just rename perf_session_env__delete() to perf_session_env__exit().

The thread-stack represents a thread's current stack. When a thread
exits there can still be many functions on the stack e.g. exit() can be
called many levels deep, so all the callers will never return. To get
that information output, the thread-stack must be flushed.
Previously it was assumed the thread-stack would be flushed when the
struct thread was deleted. With thread ref-counting it is no longer
clear when that will be, if ever. So instead explicitly flush all the
thread-stacks at the end of a session.

The bug is in perf_event__attr_swap(). It swaps all fields in 'struct
perf_event_attr' without checking whether the swapped field exist or
not. In addition, in read_event_desc() allocs memory for attr according
to size read from perf.data.
Therefore, if the perf.data is collected by an old perf (without
aux_watermark, for example), when perf_event__attr_swap() swaping
attr->aux_watermark it destroy malloc's metadata.
This patch introduces boundary checking in perf_event__attr_swap(). It
adds macros bswap_field_64 and bswap_field_32 into
perf_event__attr_swap() to make it only swap exist fields.

This patch modifies the perf tool to handle the new RECORD type,
PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES.
The number of lost-sample events is stored in
.nr_events[PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES]. The exact number of samples
which the kernel dropped is stored in total_lost_samples.
When the percentage of dropped samples is greater than 5%, a warning
is printed.
Here are some examples:
Eg 1, Recording different frequently-occurring events is safe with the
patch. Only a very low drop rate is associated with such actions.

perf_session__peek_event() generally leverages there being a single mmap
of the perf.data file, however on 32-bit platforms when there is more
that 32MiB of data, then there are multiple mmaps, so
perf_session__peek_event() reads from the file.
In that case a couple of bugs were exposed (note how the seg. fault
appears with >32M of data):

Add support for the PERF_RECORD_AUX event type.
PERF_RECORD_AUX is a new kernel event that records when new data lands
in the AUX buffer. Currently it is assumed that AUX data follows the
same ring buffer conventions used by the perf events buffer, and
consequently the AUX event is not processed during recording.
It is processed during session processing so that the information in the
'flags' member is made available.
The format of PERF_RECORD_AUX is outlined in the linux/perf_events.h
header file. The 'flags' are also enumerated.
Intel PT and Intel BTS use the flag named PERF_AUX_FLAG_TRUNCATED to
determine if data has been lost because the buffer became full as perf
was not able to empty it fast enough.

Add an index of AUX area tracing events within a perf.data file.
perf record uses a special user event PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND to
enable sorting of events in chunks instead of having to sort all events
altogether.
AUX area tracing events contain data that can span back to the very
beginning of the recording period. i.e. they do not obey the rules of
PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND.
By adding an index, AUX area tracing events can be found in advance and
the PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND approach works as usual.
The index is recorded with the auxtrace feature in the perf.data file.
A session reads the index but does not process it. An AUX area decoder
can queue all the AUX area data in advance using
auxtrace_queues__process_index() or otherwise process the index in some
custom manner.

Hook into session processing so that AUX area decoding can synthesize
events transparently to the tools.
The advantages of transparent decoding are that tools can be used
directly with perf.data files containing AUX area tracing data, which is
easier for the user and more efficient than having a separate decoding
tool.
This will work as follows:
1. Tools will feed auxtrace events to the decoder using
perf_tool->auxtrace() (support for that still to come).
2. The decoder can process side-band events as needed due
to the auxtrace->process_event() hook.
3. The decoder can deliver synthesized events into the
event stream using perf_session__deliver_synth_event().
Note the expectation is that decoding will work on data that is
time-ordered with respect to the per-cpu or per-thread contexts that
were recorded.

PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO contains metadata, consisting primarily the
type of the AUX area tracing data plus some amount of

PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO event.
PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE identifies AUX area tracing data copied from the

By keeping pointers to machines, evlist and tool in ordered_events.
But that was more a transitional patch while moving stuff out from
perf_session.c to ordered_events.c and possibly not even needed by then,
as we could use the container_of() method and instead of having the
nr_unordered_samples stats in events_stats, we can have it in
ordered_samples.

Even when it is not used to actually reorder events, some of its fields
are used, like session->ordered_events->tool, to shorten function
signatures where tool, for instance, was being passed, as the tool is
needed for the ordered_events code, we need it there and might as well
use it for other perf_session needs.
This fixes a problem where 'perf script' had some condition that made
session->ordered_events not to be initialized even with its
script->tool ordered_events related flags asking for it to be, which
looks like another bug and needs to be investigated further.
Always initializing session->ordered_events at least leaves the current
assumptions in place, so do it now.

LBR call stack only has user-space callchains. It is output in the
PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK data format. For kernel callchains, it's
still in the form of PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN.
The perf tool has to handle both data sources to construct a
complete callstack.
For the "perf report -D" option, both lbr and fp information will be
displayed.
A new call chain recording option "lbr" is introduced into the perf
tool for LBR call stack. The user can use --call-graph lbr to get
the call stack information from hardware.
Here are some examples.

- Pushing different return address onto the stack will have
calls/returns not match
- If callstack is deeper than the LBR, only the last entries are
