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.

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.

Commit fb9edbe984 shortened held_lock->check from a 2-bit field
to a 1-bit field.
Make liblockdep compatible with the new definition by passing check=1
to lock_acquire() calls, rather than the old value check=2 (which
inadvertently disabled checks by overflowing to 0).
Without this fix, several of the test cases in liblockdep run_tests.sh

While synchronizing what's in trace-cmd vs what's in perf, I came
across a change that was made when entering the jbd2 plugin into
the tools/lib/traceevent directory. For example, one of the function
prototypes went from:
unsigned long long process_jbd2_dev_to_name(struct trace_seq *s,
unsigned long long *args)
to:
static unsigned long long
process_jbd2_dev_to_name(struct trace_seq *s,
unsigned long long *args)
I can understand the line break after the long long, but there's no
reason to keep args on a separate line.

Coming in v3.16, trace events will be able to save bitmasks in raw
format in the ring buffer and output it with the __get_bitmask() macro.
In order for userspace tools to parse this, it must be able to handle
the __get_bitmask() call and be able to convert the data that's in
the ring buffer into a nice bitmask format. The output is similar to
what the kernel uses to print bitmasks, with a comma separator every
4 bytes (8 characters).
This allows for cpumasks to also be saved efficiently.
The first user is the thermal:thermal_power_limit event which has the
following output:
thermal_power_limit: cpus=0000000f freq=1900000 cdev_state=0 power=5252

The traceevent plugins allows developers to have their events print out
information that is more advanced than what can be achieved by the
trace event format files.
As these plugins are used on the userspace side of the tracing tools, it
is only logical that the tools should be able to produce different types
of output for the events. The types of events still need to be defined by
the plugins thus we need a way to pass information from the tool to the
plugin to specify what type of information to be shown.
Not only does the information need to be passed by the tool to plugin, but
the plugin also requires a way to notify the tool of what options it can
provide.
This builds the plugin option infrastructure that is taken from trace-cmd
that is used to allow plugins to produce different output based on the
options specified by the tool.

Commit 12e55569a2 "tools lib traceevent: Use helper trace-seq in print
functions like kernel does" added a extra trace_seq helper to process
string arguments like the kernel does it. But the difference between the
kernel and the userspace library is that the kernel's trace_seq structure
has a static allocated buffer. The userspace one has a dynamically
allocated one. It requires a trace_seq_destroy(), otherwise it produces
a nasty memory leak.

The plugindir_SQ definition contains $(prefix) which is not needed as
the $(libdir) definition already contains prefix in it. This leads to
the path including an extra prefix in it, e.g. /usr/usr/lib64.
The -DPLUGIN_DIR defintion includes DESTDIR. This is incorrect, as it
sets the plugin search path to include the value of DESTDIR. DESTDIR is
a mechanism to install in a non-standard location such as a chroot or an
RPM build root. In the RPM case, this leads to the search path being
incorrect after the resulting RPM is installed (or in some cases an RPM
build failure).
Remove both of these unnecessary inclusions.

(Namhyung Kim)
- Print callchains and symbols if they exist (David Ahern)
- 'perf timechart'
- Add backtrace support to CPU info
- Print pid along the name
- Add support for CPU topology
- Add new option --highlight'ing threads, be it by name or, if a
numeric value is provided, that run more than given duration
(Stanislav Fomichev)
- 'perf top':
- Make 'perf top -g' refer to callchains, for consistency with
other tools (David Ahern)
- 'perf trace':
- Handle old kernels where the "raw_syscalls" tracepoints were
called plain "syscalls" (David Ahern)
- Remove thread summary coloring, by Pekka Enberg.
- Honour -m option in 'trace', the tool was offering the option to
set the mmap size, but wasn't using it when doing the actual mmap
on the events file descriptors (Jiri Olsa)
- generic:
- Backport libtraceevent plugin support (trace-cmd repository, with
plugins for jbd2, hrtimer, kmem, kvm, mac80211, sched_switch,
function, xen, scsi, cfg80211 (Jiri Olsa)
- Print session information only if --stdio is given (Namhyung Kim)
Tooling side changes, developer visible (plumbing):
- Improve 'perf probe' exit path, release resources (Masami
Hiramatsu)
- Improve libtraceevent plugins exit path, allowing the registering
of an unregister handler to be called at exit time (Namhyung Kim)
- Add an alias to the build test makefile (make -C tools/perf
build-test) (Namhyung Kim)
- Get rid of die() and friends (good riddance!) in libtraceevent
(Namhyung Kim)
- Fix cross build problems related to pkgconfig and CROSS_COMPILE not
being propagated to the feature tests, leading to features being
tested in the host and then being enabled on the target (Mark
Rutland)
- Improve forked workload error reporting by sending the errno in the
signal data queueing integer field, using sigqueue and by doing the
signal setup in the evlist methods, removing open coded equivalents
in various tools (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Do more auto exit cleanup chores in the 'evlist' destructor, so
that the tools don't have to all do that sequence (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)
- Pack 'struct perf_session_env' and 'struct trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)
- Add test for building detached source tarballs (Arnaldo Carvalho de
Melo)
- Move some header files (tools/perf/ to tools/include/ to make them
available to other tools/ dwelling codebases (Namhyung Kim)
- Move logic to warn about kptr_restrict'ed kernels to separate
function in 'report' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Move hist browser selection code to separate function (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
- Move histogram entries collapsing to separate function (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
- Introduce evlist__for_each() & friends (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Automate setup of FEATURE_CHECK_(C|LD)FLAGS-all variables (Jiri
Olsa)
- Move arch setup into seprate Makefile (Jiri Olsa)
- Make libtraceevent install target quieter (Jiri Olsa)
- Make tests/make output more compact (Jiri Olsa)
- Ignore generated files in feature-checks (Chunwei Chen)
- Introduce pevent_filter_strerror() in libtraceevent, similar in
purpose to libc's strerror() function (Namhyung Kim)
- Use perf_data_file methods to write output file in 'record' and
'inject' (Jiri Olsa)
- Use pr_*() functions where applicable in 'report' (Namhyumg Kim)
- Add 'machine' 'addr_location' struct to have full picture (machine,
thread, map, symbol, addr) for a (partially) resolved address,
reducing function signatures (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Reduce code duplication in the histogram entry creation/insertion
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Auto allocate annotation histogram data structures (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
- No need to test against NULL before calling free, also set freed
memory in struct pointers to NULL, to help fixing use after free
bugs (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Rename some struct DSO binary_type related members and methods, to
clarify its purpose and need for differentiation (symtab_type, ie
one is about the files .text, CFI, etc, i.e. its binary contents,
and the other is about where the symbol table came from (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
- Convert to new topic libraries, starting with an API one (sysfs,
debugfs, etc), renaming liblk in the process (Borislav Petkov)
- Get rid of some more panic() like error handling in libtraceevent.
(Namhyung Kim)
- Get rid of panic() like calls in libtraceevent (Namyung Kim)
- Start carving out symbol parsing routines (perf, just moving
routines to topic files in tools/lib/symbol/, tools that want to
use it need to integrate it directly, ie no
tools/lib/symbol/Makefile is provided (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Assorted refactoring patches, moving code around and adding utility
evlist methods that will be used in the IPT patchset (Adrian
Hunter)
- Assorted mmap_pages handling fixes (Adrian Hunter)
- Several man pages typo fixes (Dongsheng Yang)
- Get rid of several die() calls in libtraceevent (Namhyung Kim)
- Use basename() in a more robust way, to avoid problems related to
different system library implementations for that function
(Stephane Eranian)
- Remove open coded management of short_name_allocated member (Adrian
Hunter)
- Several cleanups in the "dso" methods, constifying some parameters
and renaming some fields to clarify its purpose (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)
- Add per-feature check flags, fixing libunwind related build
problems on some architectures (Jean Pihet)
- Do not disable source line lookup just because of one failure.
(Adrian Hunter)
- Several 'perf kvm' man page corrections (Dongsheng Yang)
- Correct the message in feature-libnuma checking, swowing the right
devel package names for various distros (Dongsheng Yang)
- Polish 'readn()' function and introduce its counterpart,
'writen()' (Jiri Olsa)
- Start moving timechart state from global variables to a 'perf_tool'
derived 'timechart' struct (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

The function handler should be unregistered when the plugin is unloaded
otherwise it'll try to access invalid memory.
