Adding filename__read_str util function to read
text file and return it in the char array.
The interface is:
int filename__read_str(const char *filename, char **buf, size_t *sizep)
Returns 0/-1 if the read suceeded/fail respectively.
buf - place to store the data pointer
size - place to store data size
v2 change:
- better error handling suggested by Namhyung Kim.

Added a 'left' variable to make the flow clearer, and added a debug

Adding possibility to specify mmap size via -m/--mmap-pages
by appending unit size character (B/K/M/G) to the
number, like:
$ perf record -m 8K ls
$ perf record -m 2M ls
The size is rounded up appropriately to follow perf
mmap restrictions.
If no unit is specified the number provides pages as
of now, like:
$ perf record -m 8 ls

The test_attr infrastructure hooks on the sys_perf_event_open call,
checking if a variable is set and if so calling a function to intercept
calls and do the checking.
But both the variable and the function aren't on objects that are
linked on the python binding, breaking it:
# perf test -v 15
15: Try 'use perf' in python, checking link problems :
--- start ---
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: /home/acme/git/build/perf//python/perf.so: undefined symbol: test_attr__enabled
---- end ----
Try 'use perf' in python, checking link problems: FAILED!
#
Fix it by moving the variable to one of the linked object files and
providing a stub for the function in the python.o object, that is only
linked in the python binding.
Now 'perf test' is happy again:
# perf test 15
15: Try 'use perf' in python, checking link problems : Ok

For building perf without stack backtrace debug, we can set
NO_BACKTRACE=1 as a argument of make. It then defines NO_BACKTRACE
macro for C code to do the proper handling. However it usually used in
a negative semantics - e.g. #ifndef - so we saw double negations which
can be misleading. Convert it to a positive form to make it more
readable and add _SUPPORT suffix for consistency.

perf has support for self-debugging by defining dump_stack function.
This function uses backtrace and backtrace_symbols functions defined as
GNU extensions.
In Android, bionic does not offer support for these functions and
compilation will fail with the following error:
target C: libperf <= tools/perf/util/util.c
tools/perf/util/util.c:4:22: fatal error: execinfo.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
Add a compile-time option (NO_BACKTRACE) to enable or disable
self-debugging functionality in perf. This can also help in debugging
since it offers the possibility to turn on/off printing the backtrace.

The perf_event_attr size needs to be initialized in all cases because it

Setting perf_guest to true by default makes no sense because the perf
subcommands can not setup guest symbol information and thus not process
and guest samples. The only exception is perf-kvm which changes the
perf_guest value on its own. So change the default for perf_guest back
to false.

Number of samples is meaningless after we switched to auto-freq, so
report the number of events, i.e. not the sum of the different periods,
but the number PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE emitted by the kernel.
While doing this I noticed that naming "count" to the sum of all the
event periods can be confusing, so rename it to .period, just like in
struct sample.data, so that we become more consistent.
This helps with the next step, that was to record in struct hist_entry
the number of sample events for each instance, we need that because we
use it to generate the number of events when applying filters to the
tree of hist entries like it is being done in the TUI report browser.

getline() is considered as undeclared in util/util.c because
it includes string.h, that in turn includes stdio.h, without
having defined _GNU_SOURCE.
But util.c also includes util.h that handles the _GNU_SOURCE and
all the needed inclusions already. Let's include only util.h
and sys/mman.h which is the only one header not handled by
util.h
This fixes the following build error:
util/util.c: In function 'slow_copyfile':
util/util.c:49: erreur: implicit declaration of function
'getline' util/util.c:49: erreur: nested extern declaration of 'getline'

Now a cache will be created in a ~/.debug debuginfo like
hierarchy, so that at the end of a 'perf record' session all the
binaries (with build-ids) involved get collected and indexed by
their build-ids, so that perf report can find them.
This is interesting when developing software where you want to
do a 'perf diff' with the previous build and opens avenues for
lots more interesting tools, like a 'perf diff --graph' that
takes more than two binaries into account.
Tunables for collecting just the symtabs can be added if one
doesn't want to have the full binary, but having the full binary
allows things like 'perf rerecord' or other tools that can
re-run the tests by having access to the exact binary in some
perf.data file, so it may well be interesting to keep the full
binary there.
Space consumption is minimised by trying to use hard links, a
'perf cache' tool to manage the space used, a la ccache is
required to purge older entries.
With this in place it will be possible also to introduce new
commands, 'perf archive' and 'perf restore' (or some more
suitable and future proof names) to create a cpio/tar file with
the perf data and the files in the cache that _had_ perf hits of
interest.
There are more aspects to polish, like finding the right vmlinux
file to cache, etc, but this is enough for a first step.
