We will use this in perf's evlist class so that it can, at
fdarray__filter() time, to unmap the associated ring buffer.
We may need to have further info associated with each fdarray entry, in
that case we'll make that int array a 'union fdarray_priv' one and put a
pointer there so that users can stash whatever they want there. For now,
an int is enough tho.
v2: Add clarification to the per array entry priv area, as well as make
it a union, which makes usage a bit longer, but if/when we make it
use more space by allowing per entry pointers existing users source
code will not have to be changed, just rebuilt.

We need to know how many fds are using a perf mmap via
PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT, so that we can know when to ditch an mmap,
refcount it.
v2: Automatically unmap it when the refcount hits one, which will happen
when all fds are filtered by perf_evlist__filter_pollfd(), in later
patches.

The extensible file description array that grew in the perf_evlist class
can be useful for other tools, as it is not something that only evlists
need, so move it to tools/lib/api/fd to ease sharing it.
v2: Don't use {} like in:
libapi_dirs:
$(QUIET_MKDIR)mkdir -p $(OUTPUT){fs,fd}/
in Makefiles, as it will not work in some systems, as in ubuntu13.10.
v3: Add fd/*.[ch] to LIBAPIKFS_SOURCES (Fix from Jiri Olsa)
v4: Leave the fcntl(fd, O_NONBLOCK) in the evlist layer, remains to
be checked if it is really needed there, but has no place in the
fdarray class (Fix from Jiri Olsa)
v5: Remove evlist details from fdarray grow/filter tests. Improve it a
bit doing more tests about expected internal state.

Since we have access two evlist members in all these poll calls, provide
a helper.
This will also help to make the patch introducing the pollfd class more
clear, as the evlist specific uses will be hiden away
perf_evlist__poll().

Since we can add file descriptors to the evlist pollfd and it will
autogrow, no need to copy all events to a local pollfd array, just add
the timer and stdin file descriptors.

This way we will be able to add more file descriptors to be polled,
like stdin or some timer fd.
At this point we might as well yank the pollfd class from evlist so that
it can be used in other places.

Because we want to notice when they get POLLHUP'ed, so that we can
figure out when all threads exited in a workload being monitored.
We can't just monitor the fds that were mmaped, we need to notice when
all the fds that were PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT'ed too, because the mmap
stays even after the fd that originally was used to do the mmap call
went away, its only when all the set-output fds for a mmap are gone that
the mmap is.

We want to know when the fd went away, like when a monitored thread
exits.
If we do not monitor such events, then the tools will wait forever on
events from a vanished thread, like when running:
$ sleep 5s &
$ perf record -p `pidof sleep`
This builds upon the kernel patch by Jiri Olsa that actually makes a
poll on those file descriptors to return POLLHUP.
It is also needed to change the tools to use
perf_evlist__filter_pollfd() to check if there are remainings fds to
monitor or if all are gone, in which case they will exit the
poll/mmap/read loop.

To remove all entries in evlist->pollfd[] that have revents matching at
least one of the bits in the specified mask.
It'll adjust evlist->nr_fds to the number of unfiltered fds and will
return this value, as a convenience and to avoid requiring direct access
to internal state of perf_evlist objects.
This will be used after polling the evlist fds so that we remove fds
that were closed by the kernel.

All builtins that consume events from perf's ring buffer now end up
calling perf_evlist__mmap_consume(), which will allow unmapping the ring
buffer when all the fds gets closed and all events in the buffer
consumed.
This is in preparation for the patchkit that will notice POLLHUP on
perf events file descriptors.

If a vmlinux is stripped, perf will use it and ignore kallsyms. We
end up with useless profiles where everything maps to a few
runtime symbols:

4.90% beam.smp [kernel.kallsyms] [k] hcall_real_table

3.72% beam.smp [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __run_at_kexec
Detect this case and fallback to using kallsyms. This fixes the issue:

This allows default config terms to be provided for a PMU. So, for
example, when the Intel PT PMU is added, it will be possible to specify:
intel_pt//
which will be the same as:
intel_pt/tsc=1,noretcomp=0/
meaning that the trace should contain TSC timestamps and perform 'return
compression'.
An important consideration of this patch is that it must be possible to
overwrite the default values. That has meant changing the logic so that
a zero value can replace a non-zero value.

Decoding an Intel PT trace of the kernel requires an accurate kernel
object image. This is provided by making a copy of kcore. However the
copy needs to be made under the same conditions as the original
recording, and then it needs to be associated with the perf.data file.
The perf-with-kcore script does that.
The script also checks the permissions on the buildid cache and can be
used to fix them. That is needed for distributions where root does not
have a home directory and consequently writes to the same buildid cache
as the user, resulting in cached files that the user does not have
access to.
Example:
$ ./perf-with-kcore
Usage: perf-with-kcore <perf sub-command> <perf.data directory> [<sub-command options> [ -- <workload>]]
<perf sub-command> can be record, script, report or inject
or: perf-with-kcore fix_buildid_cache_permissions

This enables a PMU event to be specified in the form:
pmu//
which is effectively the same as:
pmu/config=0/
This patch is a precursor to defining default config for a PMU.
Further explanation extracted from lkml thread:
Imagine that the 'tsc' term did not exist.
Intel PT trace data would not contain TSC packets, and the decoder would
not know how to decode them.
Then imagine that a new version of the hardware adds 'tsc'.
It is such a useful feature that we want it by default, but older
versions of the tools don't know how to decode it, so the kernel cannot
turn it on by default.
It is similar to why the kernel does not select perf_event_attr.mmap2 by
default.
The kernel doesn't know whether the tool supports it.

We need a way to specify $(lib) part of the installation path for
traceevent plugin libraries. Currently we use 'lib64' for x86_64 and
'lib' otherwise.
Instead of listing all possible values, this change allows the rpm spec
code to specify the correct $(lib) part based on processed architecture,
like
$ make ... lib=%{_lib}

The 'perf kvm stat report' command can be used to analyze events either
for system wide or for specific pids.
Let's enable kvm->opts.target.system_wide flag when 'report' command is
running for system-wide analyzing. This helps to sync kvm->opts.target
values in 'report' and 'live' commands.

The 'perf kvm stat report' command uses the kvm->pid_str field to keep
the value of the --pid option. Let's use kvm->opts.target.pid instead.

Adding support to add field(s) to default sort order via using the '+'
prefix, like for report:
$ perf report
Samples: 2K of event 'cycles', Event count (approx.): 882172583
Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
7.39% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] intel_idle
1.97% firefox libpthread-2.17.so [.] pthread_mutex_lock
1.39% firefox [snd_hda_intel] [k] azx_get_position
1.11% firefox libpthread-2.17.so [.] pthread_mutex_unlock
$ perf report -s +cpu
Samples: 2K of event 'cycles', Event count (approx.): 882172583
Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol CPU
2.89% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] intel_idle 000
2.61% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] intel_idle 002
1.20% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] intel_idle 001
0.82% firefox libpthread-2.17.so [.] pthread_mutex_lock 002
Works in general for commands using --sort option.
v2 with changes suggested:
- Use dynamic memory instead static buffer
- Fix error message typo

Although the test cases have been added, they must be specified explicitly
via the kvm.sh --configs argument in order to run them. This commit
therefore adds the RCU-tasks tests to the CFLIST so that they will be
run automatically by default.

When starting a new torture run while an old one is still running, both
qemu processes can be outputting to the same console.out file. This can
cause quite a bit of confusion, so this commit checks for this situation,
which is normally indicated by nul bytes in the console output. Yes,
if your new run uses up an exact number of blocks of the file, this
check will be ineffective, but the odds are not bad.
