Later changes will add reference count checking for struct map, add a
helper function to invoke the map_ip and unmap_ip function pointers. The
helper allows the reference count check to be in fewer places.

Later changes will add reference count checking for struct map, with
dso being the most frequently accessed variable. Add an accessor so
that the reference count check is only necessary in one place.
Additional changes:
- add a dso variable to avoid repeated map__dso calls.
- in builtin-mem.c dump_raw_samples, code only partially tested for
dso == NULL. Make the possibility of NULL consistent.
- in thread.c thread__memcpy fix use of spaces and use tabs.

After copying Arm64's perf archive with object files and perf.data file
to x86 laptop, the x86's perf kernel symbol resolution fails. It
outputs 'unknown' for all symbols parsing.
This issue is root caused by the function elf__needs_adjust_symbols(),
x86 perf tool uses one weak version, Arm64 (and powerpc) has rewritten
their own version. elf__needs_adjust_symbols() decides if need to parse
symbols with the relative offset address; but x86 building uses the weak
function which misses to check for the elf type 'ET_DYN', so that it
cannot parse symbols in Arm DSOs due to the wrong result from
elf__needs_adjust_symbols().
The DSO parsing should not depend on any specific architecture perf
building; e.g. x86 perf tool can parse Arm and Arm64 DSOs, vice versa.
And confirmed by Naveen N. Rao that powerpc64 kernels are not being
built as ET_DYN anymore and change to ET_EXEC.
This patch removes the arch specific functions for Arm64 and powerpc and
changes elf__needs_adjust_symbols() as a common function.
In the common elf__needs_adjust_symbols(), it checks an extra condition
'ET_DYN' for elf header type. With this fixing, the Arm64 DSO can be
parsed properly with x86's perf tool.

Pruning a bit more the includes dependency tree. Building this thing on
lots of containers takes time, we better reduce the time per build, each
container is doing 6 builds when clang and clang-devel are available,
and the plan is to do a 'make -C tools/perf build-test' that have many
more.
Also helps when doing normal development, as touching some random file
will have a much reduced chance of triggering lots of rebuilds.

In some cases, a symbol may have multiple aliases. Attempting to add an
entry probe for such symbols results in a probe being added at an
incorrect location while it fails altogether for return probes. This is
only applicable for binaries with debug information.
During the arch-dependent post-processing, the offset from the start of
the symbol at which the probe is to be attached is determined and added
to the start address of the symbol to get the probe's location. In case
there are multiple aliases, this offset gets added multiple times for
each alias of the symbol and we end up with an incorrect probe location.
This can be verified on a powerpc64le system as shown below.
$ nm /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/vmlinux | grep "sys_open$"
...
c000000000414290 T __se_sys_open
c000000000414290 T sys_open

c0000000004142b4: 78 1b 7e 7c mr r30,r3
For both the entry probe and the return probe, the probe location
should be _text+4276888 (0xc000000000414298). Since another alias
exists for 'sys_open', the post-processing code will end up adding
the offset (8 for powerpc64le) twice and perf will attempt to add
the probe at _text+4276896 (0xc0000000004142a0) instead.

Commit d80406453ad4 ("perf symbols: Allow user probes on versioned
symbols") allows user to find default versioned symbols (with "@@") in
map. However, it did not enable normal versioned symbol (with "@") for
perf-probe. E.g.
=====
# ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state
Failed to find symbol malloc_get_state in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so
Error: Failed to add events.
=====
This solves above issue by improving perf-probe symbol search function,
as below.
=====
# ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state
Added new event:
probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_libc:malloc_get_state -aR sleep 1
# ./perf probe -l
probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state@GLIBC_2.2.5 in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)

Symbol versioning, as in glibc, results in symbols being defined as:
<real symbol>@[@]<version>
(Note that "@@" identifies a default symbol, if the symbol name is
repeated.)
perf is currently unable to deal with this, and is unable to create user
probes at such symbols:
--
$ nm /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 | grep pthread_create
0000000000008d30 t __pthread_create_2_1

Try to find probe point from debuginfo.

Error: Failed to add events. Reason: No such file or directory (Code: -2)
--
One is not able to specify the fully versioned symbol, either, due to
syntactic conflicts with other uses of "@" by perf:
--
$ /usr/bin/sudo perf probe -v -x /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 pthread_create@@GLIBC_2.17
probe-definition(0): pthread_create@@GLIBC_2.17
Semantic error :SRC@SRC is not allowed.
0 arguments
Error: Command Parse Error. Reason: Invalid argument (Code: -22)
--
This patch ignores versioning for default symbols, thus allowing probes to be
created for these symbols:
--
$ /usr/bin/sudo ./perf probe -x /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 pthread_create
Added new event:
probe_libpthread:pthread_create (on pthread_create in /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread-2.19.so)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

perf now uses an offset from _text/_stext for kretprobes if the kernel
supports it, rather than the actual function name. As such, let's choose
the LEP for powerpc ABIv2 so as to ensure the probe gets hit. Do it only
if the kernel supports specifying offsets with kretprobes.

This is not the case with kretprobes because the kernel itself finds LEP

arch__post_process_probe_trace_events() calls get_target_map() to
prepare symbol table. get_target_map() is defined inside
util/probe-event.c.
probe-event.c will only get included in perf binary if CONFIG_LIBELF is
set. Hence arch__post_process_probe_trace_events() needs to be defined
inside #ifdef HAVE_LIBELF_SUPPORT to solve compilation error.

Powerpc has Global Entry Point and Local Entry Point for functions. LEP
catches call from both the GEP and the LEP. Symbol table of ELF contains
GEP and Offset from which we can calculate LEP, but debuginfo does not
have LEP info.
Currently, perf prioritize symbol table over dwarf to probe on LEP for
ppc64le. But when user tries to probe with function parameter, we fall
back to using dwarf(i.e. GEP) and when function called via LEP, probe
will never hit.
For example:
$ objdump -d vmlinux
...
do_sys_open():
c0000000002eb4a0: e8 00 4c 3c addis r2,r12,232
c0000000002eb4a4: 60 00 42 38 addi r2,r2,96
c0000000002eb4a8: a6 02 08 7c mflr r0
c0000000002eb4ac: d0 ff 41 fb std r26,-48(r1)
$ sudo ./perf probe do_sys_open
$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
p:probe/do_sys_open _text+3060904
$ sudo ./perf probe 'do_sys_open filename:string'
$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
p:probe/do_sys_open _text+3060896 filename_string=+0(%gpr4):string
For second case, perf probed on GEP. So when function will be called via
LEP, probe won't hit.
$ sudo ./perf record -a -e probe:do_sys_open ls
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.195 MB perf.data ]
To resolve this issue, let's not prioritize symbol table, let perf
decide what it wants to use. Perf is already converting GEP to LEP when
it uses symbol table. When perf uses debuginfo, let it find LEP offset
form symbol table. This way we fall back to probe on LEP for all cases.
After patch:
$ sudo ./perf probe 'do_sys_open filename:string'
$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
p:probe/do_sys_open _text+3060904 filename_string=+0(%gpr4):string
$ sudo ./perf record -a -e probe:do_sys_open ls
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.197 MB perf.data (11 samples) ]

ppc64le functions have a Global Entry Point (GEP) and a Local Entry
Point (LEP). While placing a probe, we always prefer the LEP since it
catches function calls through both the GEP and the LEP. In order to do
this, we fixup the function entry points during elf symbol table lookup
to point to the LEPs. This works, but breaks 'perf test kallsyms' since
the symbols loaded from the symbol table (pointing to the LEP) do not
match the symbols in kallsyms.
To fix this, we do not adjust all the symbols during symbol table load.
Instead, we note down st_other in a newly introduced arch-specific
member of perf symbol structure, and later use this to adjust the probe
trace point.

So far, we used to treat probe point offsets as being offset from the
LEP. However, userspace applications (objdump/readelf) always show
disassembly and offsets from the function GEP. This is confusing to the
user as we will end up probing at an address different from what the
user expects when looking at the function disassembly with
readelf/objdump. Fix this by changing how we modify probe address with
perf.
If only the function name is provided, we assume the user needs the LEP.
Otherwise, if an offset is specified, we assume that the user knows the
exact address to probe based on function disassembly, and so we just
place the probe from the GEP offset.
Finally, kretprobe was also broken with kallsyms as we were trying to
specify an offset. This patch also fixes that issue.

On powerpc ABIv2, if no debug-info is found and we use kallsyms, we need
to fixup the function entry to point to the local entry point. Use
offset of 8 since current toolchains always generate 2 instructions (8
bytes).

Use symbol table lookups by default if DWARF is not necessary, since
powerpc ABIv2 encodes local entry points in the symbol table and the
function entry address in DWARF may not be appropriate for kprobes, as
described here:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17638
"The DWARF address ranges deliberately include the *whole* function,
both global and local entry points."
...
"If you want to set probes on a local entry point, you should look up
the symbol in the main symbol table (not DWARF), and check the st_other
bits; they will indicate whether the function has a local entry point,
and what its offset from the global entry point is. Note that GDB does
the same when setting a breakpoint on a function entry."

(LEP). For purposes of probing, we need the LEP - the offset to which is
encoded in st_other.

Allow perf probe to work on ppc ABIv1 without the need to specify the
leading dot '.' for functions. 'perf probe do_fork' works with this
patch.
We do this by changing how symbol name comparison works on ppc ABIv1 -
we simply ignore and skip over the initial dot, if one exists, during
symbol name comparison.

If using the symbol table, symbol addresses are not being fixed up
properly, resulting in probes being placed at wrong addresses:
# perf probe do_fork
Added new event:
probe:do_fork (on do_fork)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:do_fork -aR sleep 1
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
p:probe/do_fork _text+635952
# printf "%x" 635952
9b430
# grep do_fork /boot/System.map
c0000000000ab430 T .do_fork
Fix by checking for ELF type ET_DYN used by ppc64 kernels.
