The perf.data-file-format documentation incorrectly says the
HEADER_TOTAL_MEM results are in bytes. The results are in kilobytes
(perf reads the value from /proc/meminfo)

When building our local version of perf with MSAN (Memory Sanitizer) and
running the perf record command, MSAN throws a use of uninitialized
value warning in "tools/perf/util/util.c:333:6".
This warning stems from the "buf" variable being passed into "write".
It originated as the variable "ev" with the type union perf_event*
defined in the "perf_event__synthesize_attr" function in
"tools/perf/util/header.c".
In the "perf_event__synthesize_attr" function they allocate space with a malloc
call using ev, then go on to only assign some of the member variables before
passing "ev" on as a parameter to the "process" function therefore "ev"
contains uninitialized memory. Changing the malloc call to zalloc to initialize
all the members of "ev" which gets rid of the warning.
To reproduce this warning, build perf by running:
make -C tools/perf CLANG=1 CC=clang EXTRA_CFLAGS="-fsanitize=memory\
-fsanitize-memory-track-origins"
(Additionally, llvm might have to be installed and clang might have to
be specified as the compiler - export CC=/usr/bin/clang)
then running:
tools/perf/perf record -o - ls / | tools/perf/perf --no-pager annotate\
-i - --stdio
Please see the cover letter for why false positive warnings may be
generated.

So I have been having lots of trouble with hand-crafted perf.data files
causing segfaults and the like, so I have started fuzzing the perf tool.
First issue found:
If f_header.attr_size is 0 in the perf.data file, then perf will crash
with a divide-by-zero error.
Committer note:
Added a pr_err() to tell the user why the command failed.

When perf_add_probe_events() we call cleanup_perf_probe_events() for the
pev pointer it receives, then, as part of handling this failure the main
'perf probe' goes on and calls cleanup_params() and that will again call
cleanup_perf_probe_events()for the same pointer, so just set nevents to
zero when handling the failure of perf_add_probe_events() to avoid the
double free.

So that, when perf_add_probe_events() fails, like in:
# perf probe icmp_rcv:64 "type=icmph->type"
Failed to find 'icmph' in this function.
Error: Failed to add events.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
#
We don't segfault.
clear_perf_probe_event() was zeroing the whole pev, and since the switch
to zfree() for the members in the pev, that memset() was removed, which
left nargs with its original value, in the above case 1.
With the memset the same pev could be passed to clear_perf_probe_event()
multiple times, since all it would have would be zeroes, and free()
accepts zero, the loop would not happen and we would just memset it
again to zeroes.
Without it we got that segfault, so zero nargs to keep it like it was,
next cset will avoid calling clear_perf_probe_event() for the same pevs
in case of failure.

Numfor Mbiziwo-Tiapo reported segfault on stat of event group in repeat
mode:
# perf stat -e '{cycles,instructions}' -r 10 ls
It's caused by memory corruption due to not cleaned evsel's id array and
index, which needs to be rebuilt in every stat iteration. Currently the
ids index grows, while the array (which is also not freed) has the same
size.
Fixing this by releasing id array and zeroing ids index in
perf_evsel__close function.
We also need to keep the evsel_list alive for stat record (which is
disabled in repeat mode).

Currently, the initial comm of the main thread is exported. Export also
a thread's current comm. That better supports the tracing of
multi-threaded applications that set different comms for different
threads to make it easier to distinguish them.

Calls to db_export__thread() already have main_thread so there is no
reason to get it again, instead pass it as a parameter. Note that one
difference in this approach is that the main thread is not created if it
does not exist. It is better if it is not created because:
- If main_thread is being traced it will have been created already.
- If it is not being traced, there will be no other information about
it, and it will never get deleted because there will be no EXIT event.

had not been "set" (changed from :<pid>) however that problem was fixed

I noticed that the 'perf test bpf' was failing:
# perf test bpf
41: BPF filter :
41.1: Basic BPF filtering : Skip
41.2: BPF pinning : Skip
41.3: BPF prologue generation : Skip
41.4: BPF relocation checker : Skip
# ulimit -l
64
#
Using verbose mode we get just a line bout -EPERF being returned from
libbpf's bpf_load_program_xattr(), that ends up being used in 'perf
test bpf' initial program loading capability query:
Missing basic BPF support, skip this test: Operation not permitted
Not that informative, but on a separate problem when creating BPF maps
bumping rlimit(MEMLOCK) helped, so I tried it here as well, works:
# ulimit -l 128
# perf test bpf
41: BPF filter :
41.1: Basic BPF filtering : Ok
41.2: BPF pinning : Ok
41.3: BPF prologue generation : Ok
41.4: BPF relocation checker : Ok
#
So use the recently added rlimit__bump_memlock() helper:
# ulimit -l 64
# perf test bpf
41: BPF filter :
41.1: Basic BPF filtering : Ok
41.2: BPF pinning : Ok
41.3: BPF prologue generation : Ok
41.4: BPF relocation checker : Ok
# ulimit -l
64
#
I.e. the bumping of memlock is restricted to the 'perf test' instance,
not changing the global value.

Just like the BPF guys did when faced with failures with map creation,
etc, i.e. their solution is:
tools/testing/selftests/bpf/bpf_rlimit.h
For perf use this function in 'perf test' and in 'perf trace'.
Make it bump to 4 times the current value, if it fails twice the current
value and if it still fails, warn that things like BPF map creation may
fail, to help in diagnosing the problem.

In pipe mode, session->header.env.arch is not populated until the events
are processed. Therefore, the following command crashes:
perf record -o - | perf script
(gdb) bt
It fails when we try to compare env.arch against uts.machine:
if (!strcmp(uts.machine, session->header.env.arch) ||
(!strcmp(uts.machine, "x86_64") &&
!strcmp(session->header.env.arch, "i386")))
native_arch = true;
In pipe mode, it is tricky to find env.arch at this stage. To keep it
simple, let's just assume native_arch is always true for pipe mode.

SQLite does not seem to mind but the fix was needed for PostgreSQL
(export-to-postgresql.py script), so do the same fix for the SQLite. It is
