The final period can differ from what user specifies on command line due
to the perf_event_max_sample_rate sysctl setup.
Thus we can't predixt the sample_period value any more.

We create many test events before the real ones just to test specific

events from those it needs to check.

When the user doesn't specify an event with -e/--event, 'perf record'
will use as a default the "cycles" event with the highest level of
precision in perf_event_attr.precise_ip, but --no-samples, if present,
is incompatible with precise_ip != 0, so use the newly introduced
__perf_event__add_default(precise = false) to fix that:
Before:
# perf record -n usleep 1
Please consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (cycles:ppp).

If a process is in a mountns and has symbols in /tmp/perf-<pid>.map,
look first in the namespace using the tgid for the pidns that the
process might be in. If the map isn't found there, try looking in the
mountns where perf is running, and use the tgid that's appropriate for
perf's pid namespace. If all else fails, use the original pid.
This allows us to locate a symbol map file in the mount namespace, if it
was generated there. However, we also try the tool's /tmp in case it's
there instead.

In older distros we were not including our copies of unistd_{32,64}.h,
as we were relying on the system's asm/unistd.h, and a log time ago
the files to be included were asm-{x86_64,i386}/unistd.h.
Fix it by also carrying a copy of asm/unistd.h, that will be the same
as in modern distros and will allow us to provide missing __NR_setns,
for instance, in older distros.

We may want to use this in other contexts, like when formatting the
return of fcntl(fd, F_GETFL).
Make it have the following signature, so that we can set the formatter
for the return argument while processing the arguments of a syscall, as
fcntl, for instance, may return fds, flags, etc, so need different
return value formatters:
size_t formatter(unsigned long value, char *bf, size_t size);
This gets so detached from 'perf trace' internals that we may well get
all these and move to a tools/lib/syscall_beauty/ library at some point
and use it in other tools/ living utilities.

As we'll call it from the fcntl cmd scnprintf method, that needs to look
at the cmd to mask the next fcntl argument when it is ignored.

We were only beautifying (transforming from an integer to its name) the
non-linux specific fcntl syscall cmd args, fix it:
Before:
# perf trace -e fcntl -p 2472
0.000 ( 0.017 ms): gnome-terminal/2472 fcntl(fd: 55, cmd: 1030) = 56
^C#
After:
# trace -e fcntl -p 2472
0.000 ( 0.015 ms): gnome-terminal/2472 fcntl(fd: 55, cmd: DUPFD_CLOEXEC) = 56
^C#

The initial ones already had that "F_" prefix stripped to make things
shorter, some hadn't, do it now.
We do this to make the 'perf trace' output more compact. At some point
perhaps the best thing to do is to have the tool do this stripping
automatically, letting the user also decide if this is to be done or
not. For now, be consistent.

For marking fused instructions clearly this patch adds a line before the
first instruction of pair and joins it with the arrow of the jump to its
target.
For example, when "je" is selected in annotate view, the line before
cmpl is displayed and joins the arrow of "je".
│ ┌──cmpl $0x0,argp_program_version_hook
81.93 │ ├──je 20
│ │ lock cmpxchg %esi,0x38a9a4(%rip)
│ │↓ jne 29
│ │↓ jmp 43
11.47 │20:└─→cmpxch %esi,0x38a999(%rip)
That means the cmpl+je is a fused instruction pair and they should be
considered together.
Changelog:
v3: Use Arnaldo's fix to improve the arrow origin rendering. To get the
evsel->evlist->env->cpuid, save the evsel in annotate_browser.
v2: new function "ins__is_fused" to check if the instructions are fused.

Macro fusion merges two instructions to a single micro-op. Intel core
platform performs this hardware optimization under limited
circumstances.
For example, CMP + JCC can be "fused" and executed /retired together.
While with sampling this can result in the sample sometimes being on the
JCC and sometimes on the CMP. So for the fused instruction pair, they
could be considered together.
On Nehalem, fused instruction pairs:
cmp/test + jcc.
On other new CPU:
cmp/test/add/sub/and/inc/dec + jcc.
This patch adds an x86-specific function which checks if 2 instructions
are in a "fused" pair. For non-x86 arch, the function is just NULL.
Changelog:
v4: Move the CPU model checking to symbol__disassemble and save the CPU
family/model in arch structure.
It avoids checking every time when jump arrow printed.
v3: Add checking for Nehalem (CMP, TEST). For other newer Intel CPUs
just check it by default (CMP, TEST, ADD, SUB, AND, INC, DEC).
v2: Remove the original weak function. Arnaldo points out that doing it
as a weak function that will be overridden by the host arch doesn't
work. So now it's implemented as an arch-specific function.
Committer fix:
Do not access evsel->evlist->env->cpuid, ->env can be null, introduce
perf_evsel__env_cpuid(), just like perf_evsel__env_arch(), also used in
this function call.
The original patch was segfaulting 'perf top' + annotation.
But this essentially disables this fused instructions augmentation in
'perf top', the right thing is to get the cpuid from the running kernel,
left for a later patch tho.

semantic
__GFP_REPEAT was designed to allow retry-but-eventually-fail semantic to
the page allocator. This has been true but only for allocations
requests larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. It has been always
ignored for smaller sizes. This is a bit unfortunate because there is
no way to express the same semantic for those requests and they are
considered too important to fail so they might end up looping in the
page allocator for ever, similarly to GFP_NOFAIL requests.
Now that the whole tree has been cleaned up and accidental or misled
usage of __GFP_REPEAT flag has been removed for !costly requests we can
give the original flag a better name and more importantly a more useful
semantic. Let's rename it to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL which tells the user
that the allocator would try really hard but there is no promise of a
success. This will work independent of the order and overrides the
default allocator behavior. Page allocator users have several levels of
guarantee vs. cost options (take GFP_KERNEL as an example)
- GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_RECLAIM - optimistic allocation without _any_
attempt to free memory at all. The most light weight mode which even
doesn't kick the background reclaim. Should be used carefully because
it might deplete the memory and the next user might hit the more
aggressive reclaim
- GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (or GFP_NOWAIT)- optimistic
allocation without any attempt to free memory from the current
context but can wake kswapd to reclaim memory if the zone is below
the low watermark. Can be used from either atomic contexts or when
the request is a performance optimization and there is another
fallback for a slow path.
- (GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH) & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (aka GFP_ATOMIC) -
non sleeping allocation with an expensive fallback so it can access
some portion of memory reserves. Usually used from interrupt/bh
context with an expensive slow path fallback.
- GFP_KERNEL - both background and direct reclaim are allowed and the
_default_ page allocator behavior is used. That means that !costly
allocation requests are basically nofail but there is no guarantee of
that behavior so failures have to be checked properly by callers
(e.g. OOM killer victim is allowed to fail currently).
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY - overrides the default allocator behavior
and all allocation requests fail early rather than cause disruptive
reclaim (one round of reclaim in this implementation). The OOM killer
is not invoked.
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL - overrides the default allocator
behavior and all allocation requests try really hard. The request
will fail if the reclaim cannot make any progress. The OOM killer
won't be triggered.
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior
and all allocation requests will loop endlessly until they succeed.
This might be really dangerous especially for larger orders.
Existing users of __GFP_REPEAT are changed to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL
because they already had their semantic. No new users are added.
__alloc_pages_slowpath is changed to bail out for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL if
there is no progress and we have already passed the OOM point.
This means that all the reclaim opportunities have been exhausted except
the most disruptive one (the OOM killer) and a user defined fallback
behavior is more sensible than keep retrying in the page allocator.
