Count branches first, cache-misses second. The reason is that
on x86 branches are not counted by all counters on all CPUs.
Before:

Use DECLARE_BITMAP instead of an open coded array for our bitmap
of featured sections.
This makes the array an unsigned long instead of a u64 but since
we use a 256 bits bitmap, the array size shouldn't vary between
different boxes.

This provides a new set of bitmasked headers. A new field is
added in the perf headers that implements a bitmap storing
optional features present in the perf.data file.
The layout can be pictured like this:
(Usual perf headers)(Features bitmap)[Feature 0][Feature
n][Feature 255]
If the bit n is set, then the feature n is used in this file.
They are all set in order. This brings a backward and forward
compatibility.
The trace_info section has moved into such optional features,
this is the first and only one for now.
This is backward compatible with the .32 file version although
it doesn't support the previous separate trace.info file.
And finally it doesn't support the current interim development
version.

Use die() for exiting perf-probe with errors. This replaces
perror_exit(), msg_exit() and fprintf()+exit() with die(), and
uses die() in semantic_error().
This also renames 'die' local variables to 'dw_die' for avoiding
name confliction.

expression x, E;
identifier fld;

* x->fld

Add perf probe subcommand that implements a kprobe-event setup helper
to the perf command.
This allows user to define kprobe events using C expressions (C line
numbers, C function names, and C local variables).
Usage
-----
perf probe [<options>] -P 'PROBEDEF' [-P 'PROBEDEF' ...]
-k, --vmlinux <file> vmlinux/module pathname
-P, --probe <p|r:[GRP/]NAME FUNC[+OFFS][@SRC]|@SRC:LINE [ARG ...]>
probe point definition, where
p: kprobe probe
r: kretprobe probe
GRP: Group name (optional)
NAME: Event name
FUNC: Function name
OFFS: Offset from function entry (in byte)
SRC: Source code path
LINE: Line number
ARG: Probe argument (local variable name or
kprobe-tracer argument format is supported.)
Changes in v4:
- Add _GNU_SOURCE macro for strndup().
Changes in v3:
- Remove -r option because perf always be used for online kernel.
- Check malloc/calloc results.
Changes in v2:
- Check synthesized string length.
- Rename perf kprobe to perf probe.
- Use spaces for separator and update usage comment.
- Check error paths in parse_probepoint().
- Check optimized-out variables.

Randy Dunlap reported that 'make NO_64BIT=1' fails to build
a pure 32-b it binary on 64-bit/64-bit x86 systems.
The reason is that we dont pass in the -m32 and GCC defaults
to -m64.
So pass it in - and also extend the warning message about libelf
dependencies - glibc-dev[el] is needed as well beyond the libelf
library.

To refresh, trying to sched record only one CPU results in bogus
latencies as below.
I fixed^Wmade it stop doing the bad thing today, by
following task migration events properly.
Before:
marge:/root/tmp # taskset -c 1 perf sched record -C 0 -- sleep 10

Commit 42e59d7d19dc4b4 switched to a default sample frequency of
1KHz, which overrides any user supplied count, causing sched, top
and timechart to miss events due to their discrete events
being flagged PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD.
Override default sample frequency when the user profides a
period count, and make both record and top honor that user
supplied option.

The following perf build warnings/errors in function
argument types:
builtin-sched.c:1894: warning: passing argument 1 of 'sort_dimension__add' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
util/trace-event-parse.c:685: warning: passing argument 2 of 'read_expected' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
util/trace-event-parse.c:741: warning: passing argument 4 of 'test_type_token' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
util/trace-event-parse.c:706: warning: passing argument 2 of 'read_expected_item' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
... trigger because older GCC is not able to prove that
sort_dimension__add() does not change the string.
Some goes for test_type_token().
Fix this by improving type consistency.

We have merged the trace.info file into perf.data by adding one
section in the perf headers. This makes it incompatible with
previous version: the new perf tools can't read the older
perf.data.
To support the previous format, we check the headers size. If they
have the same size than in the previous format, then ignore the
trace info section that doesn't exist.

This reverts commit 9a92b479b2f088ee2d3194243f4c8e59b1b8c9c2 ("perf
tools: Improve thread comm resolution in perf sched") and fixes the
real bug.
The bug was elsewhere:
We are failing to resolve thread names in perf sched because the
table of threads we are building, on top of comm events, has a per
process granularity. But perf sched, unlike the other perf tools,
needs a per thread granularity as we are profiling every tasks
individually.
So fix it by building our threads table using the tid instead of
the pid as the thread identifier.
v2: Revert the previous fix - it is not really needed

This removes the ovelapping of vmlinux addresses with modules,
using the ELF section name when using --vmlinux and creating a
unique DSO name when using /proc/kallsyms ([kernel].N).
This is done by creating multiple 'struct map' instances for
address ranges backed by DSOs that have just the symbols for that
range and a name that is derived from the ELF section name.o
Now it is possible to ask for just the symbols in some particular
kernel section:
$ perf report -m --vmlinux ../build/tip-recvmmsg/vmlinux \
--dsos [kernel].vsyscall_fn | head -15
52.73% Xorg [.] vread_hpet
18.61% firefox [.] vread_hpet
14.50% npviewer.bin [.] vread_hpet
6.83% compiz [.] vread_hpet
5.73% glxgears [.] vread_hpet
0.63% java [.] vread_hpet
0.30% gnome-terminal [.] vread_hpet
0.23% perf [.] vread_hpet
0.18% xchat [.] vread_hpet
$
Now we don't have to first lookup the list of modules and then, if
it fails, vmlinux symbols, its just a simple lookup for the map
then the symbols, just like for threads.
Reports generated using /proc/kallsyms and --vmlinux should provide
the same results, modulo the DSO name for sections other than
".text".
But they don't right now because things like:
ffffffff81011c20-ffffffff81012068 system_call
ffffffff81011c30-ffffffff81011c9b system_call_after_swapgs
ffffffff81011c9c-ffffffff81011cb6 system_call_fastpath
ffffffff81011cb7-ffffffff81011cbb ret_from_sys_call
I.e. overlapping symbols, again some ASM special case that we have
to fixup.

When we get sched traces that involve a task that was already
created before opening the event, we won't have the comm event for
it.
So if we can't find the comm event for a given thread, we look at
the traces that may contain these informations.

This librarizes the perf.data file mapping and handling in various
perf tools, roughly reducing the amount of code and fixing the
places that mmap from beginning of the file whereas we want to mmap
from the beginning of the data, leading to page fault because the
mmap window is too small since the trace info are written in the
file too.
TODO:
- convert perf timechart too
