Vince Weaver reported a 'perf stat' measurement overhead in the
count of retired instructions, which can amount to a +6000
instructions inflated count in the reported count.
At present, perf stat creates its counters on the perf process. Thus
the counters count the fork and various other activity in both the
parent and child, such as the resolver overhead for resolving PLT
entries for any libc functions that haven't been called before, such
as execvp.
This reduces the overhead by creating the counters on the child process
after the fork, using a couple of pipes to synchronize so that the
child process waits until the parent has created the counters before
doing the exec. To eliminate the PLT resolution overhead on calling
execvp, this does a dummy execvp first which will always fail.
With this, the overhead of executing a program goes down from over
4800 instructions to about 90 instructions on powerpc (32-bit).
This was measured with a statically-linked program written in
assembler which only does the 3 instructions needed to call _exit(0).
Before:
$ perf stat -e 0:1:u ./three
Performance counter stats for './three':
4858 instructions
0.001274523 seconds time elapsed
After:
$ perf stat -e 0:1:u ./three
Performance counter stats for './three':

Martin Schwidefsky reported "perf report" symbol resolution
problems on S390.
Since we only report MMAP, not MUNMAP, we have to deal with
overlapping maps.
We used to simply throw out the old map on the assumption whole
maps got unmapped. This obviously doesn't deal with partial
unmaps. However it appears some dynamic linkers do fancy
partial unmaps (s390), so do something more elaborate and
truncate the old maps, only removing them when they've been
fully covered.
This resolves (part of) the S390 symbol resolution problems.

Lucas De Marchi reported that perf report and perf annotate
displays mismatching profile if a perf.data is analyzed on
an older kernel - even if the correct vmlinux is specified
via the -k option.
The reason is the fallback path in util/symbol.c:dso__load_kernel():
int dso__load_kernel(struct dso *self, const char *vmlinux,
symbol_filter_t filter, int verbose)
{
int err = -1;
if (vmlinux)
err = dso__load_vmlinux(self, vmlinux, filter, verbose);
if (err)
err = dso__load_kallsyms(self, filter, verbose);
return err;
}
dso__load_vmlinux() returns negative on error, but on success it
returns the number of symbols loaded - which confuses the function
to load the kallsyms.
This is normally harmless, as reporting is usually performed on the
same kernel that is analyzed - but if there's a mismatch then we
load the wrong kallsyms and create a non-sensical symbol tree.
The fix is to only fall back to kallsyms on errors.

On 64-bit powerpc, __u64 is defined to be unsigned long rather than
unsigned long long. This causes compiler warnings every time we
print a __u64 value with %Lx.
Rather than changing __u64, we define our own u64 to be unsigned long
long on all architectures, and similarly s64 as signed long long.
For consistency we also define u32, s32, u16, s16, u8 and s8. These
definitions are put in a new header, types.h, because these definitions
are needed in util/string.h and util/symbol.h.
The main change here is the mechanical change of __[us]{64,32,16,8}
to remove the "__". The other changes are:
* Create types.h
* Include types.h in perf.h, util/string.h and util/symbol.h
* Add types.h to the LIB_H definition in Makefile
* Added (u64) casts in process_overflow_event() and print_sym_table()
to kill two remaining warnings.

Add boundary checks for call-chain events. In case of corrupted
entries we could crash otherwise.

Instead of the ambigious 'call' naming use the much more
specific 'parent' naming:
- rename --call <regex> to --parent <regex>
- rename --sort call to --sort parent
- rename [unmatched] to [other] - to signal that this is not
an error but the inverse set
Also add pagefaults to the default parent-symbol pattern too,
as it's a 'syscall overhead category' in a sense.
