This patch detects kernel build directory by checking the existence of
include/generated/autoconf.h.
clang working directory is changed to kbuild directory if it is found,
to help user use relative include path. Following patch will detect
kernel include directory, which contains relative include patch so this
workdir changing is needed.
Users are allowed to set 'kbuild-dir = ""' manually to disable this
checking.

This is the core patch for supporting eBPF on-the-fly compiling, does
the following work:
1. Search clang compiler using search_program().
2. Run command template defined in llvm-bpf-cmd-template option in
[llvm] config section using read_from_pipe(). Patch of clang and
source code path is injected into shell command using environment
variable using force_set_env().
Commiter notice:
When building with DEBUG=1 we get a compiler error that gets fixed with
the same approach described in commit b236512280:
perf kmem: Fix compiler warning about may be accessing uninitialized variable
The last argument to strtok_r doesn't need to be initialized, its
just a placeholder to make this routine reentrant, but gcc doesn't know
about that and complains, breaking the build, fix it by setting it to
NULL.

Currently the value of a PMU config term is silently truncated if it is
too big. This is an impediment to validating the value for other
criteria later on i.e. the user provides an invalid value that gets
truncated to a valid one.
The maximum value validation is only done for the parser where the error
is passed back to the user. In other cases the silent truncation
continues so as not to affect tools that perhaps rely on it.

Now that we can process branch data in annotate it makes sense to
support enabling branch recording from top too. Most of the code needed
for this is already in shared code with report. But we need to add:
- The option parsing code (using shared code from the previous patch)
- Document the options
- Set up the IPC/cycles accounting state in the top session
- Call the accounting code in the hist iter callback

Compute the IPC and the basic block cycles for the annotate display.
IPC is computed by counting the instructions, and then dividing the
accounted cycles by that count.
The actual IPC computation can only be done at annotate time, because we
need to parse the objdump output first to know the number of
instructions in the basic block.
The cycles/IPC are also put into the perf function annotation so that
the display code can show them.
Again basic block overlaps are not handled, with the longest winning,
but there are some heuristics to hide the IPC when the longest is not
the most common.
v2: Compute IPC correctly.

This adds the basic infrastructure to keep track of cycle counts per
basic block for annotate. We allocate an array similar to the normal
accounting, and then account branch cycles there.
We handle two cases:
cycles per basic block with start and cycles per branch (these are later
used for either IPC or just cycles per BB)
In the start case we cannot handle overlaps, so always the longest basic
block wins.
For the cycles per branch case everything is accurately accounted.
v2: Remove unnecessary checks. Slight restructure. Move
symbol__get_annotation to another patch. Move histogram allocation.

To work like strace and dereference syscall pointer args we need to
insert probes (or tracepoints) right after we copy those bytes from
userspace.
Since we're formatting the syscall args at raw_syscalls:sys_enter time,
we need to have a formatter that just stores the position where, later,
when we get the probe:vfs_getname, we can insert the pointer contents.
Now, if a probe:vfs_getname with this format is in place:
# perf probe -l
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72@/home/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname)
That was, in this case, put in place with:
# perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=filename:string'
Added new event:
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=filename:string)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1
#
Then 'perf trace' will notice that and do the pointer -> contents
expansion:
# trace -e open touch /tmp/bla
0.165 (0.010 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.195 (0.011 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /lib64/libc.so.6, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.512 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.582 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /tmp/bla, flags: CREAT|NOCTTY|NONBLOCK|WRONLY, mode: 438) = 3
#
Roughly equivalent to strace's output:
# strace -rT -e open touch /tmp/bla
0.000000 open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000039>
0.000317 open("/lib64/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000102>
0.001461 open("/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000072>
0.000405 open("/tmp/bla", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK, 0666) = 3 <0.000055>
0.000641 +++ exited with 0 +++
#
Now we need to either look for at all syscalls that are marked as
pointers and have some well known names ("filename", "pathname", etc)
and set the arg formatter to the one used for the "open" syscall in this
patch.
This implementation works for syscalls with just a string being copied
from userspace, for matching syscalls with more than one string being
copied via the same probe/trace point (vfs_getname) we need to extend
the vfs_getname probe spec to include the pointer too, but there are
some problems with that in 'perf probe' or the kernel kprobes code, need
to investigate before considering supporting multiple strings per
syscall.

calls that will be used in the next cset to replace pointers
present at raw_syscalls:sys_enter time with its contents that
appear at probe:vfs_getname time, before raw_syscalls:sys_exit
time.

So that we can later decide if we will store where to expand the

just go on and straight away print the pointer.

We were accessing trace->syscalls.events members even when that struct
wasn't initialized, i.e. --no-syscalls was specified on the command
line, fix it to show that, still in debug mode, when we have an event
qualifier list, i.e. when we actually are doing subset syscall tracing.

The libtraceevent handler (session->tevent) is only initialized when
there are tracepoints in a perf.data event list, so do not call
pevent_set_function_resolve() in those cases, fixing a segfault.

Currently the command line option settings beats the per event period
settings:
With no global settings, we get per-event configuration:
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 20000 ...
With 'c' option period setup, we get 'c' option value:
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' -c 1000 sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 1000 ...
This patch makes the per-event settings overload the global 'c' option
setup:
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' -c 1000 sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 20000 ...
I think the making the per-event settings to overload any other config
makes more sense than current state. However it breaks the current
'period' term handling, which might cause some noise.. so let's see ;-).
Also fixing parse event tests with the new behaviour.

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().

To not sample, what we want are just the PERF_RECORD_ lifetime events
for threads, using the default, PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE +
PERF_COUNT_HW_CYCLES and freq=1 (the default), makes perf reenable
irq_vectors:local_timer_entry, disabling nohz, not good for some use
cases where all we want is to get notifications when threads comes and
goes...
Fix it by using PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE (no counter rotation) and
PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY (created by Adrian so that we could have access to
those PERF_RECORD_ goodies).
