This fixes a bug introduced in 4af8b35, there is no need to shift pgoff

it from the number of pages to the size in bytes, and that is what

The problem was introduced in d65a458, thus post .35.

For long running sessions with many threads with short lifetimes the
amount of memory that the buildid process takes is too much.
Since we don't have hist_entries that may be pointing to them, we can
just release the resources associated with each thread when the exit
(PERF_RECORD_EXIT) event is received.
For normal processing we need to annotate maps with hits, and thus
hist_entries pointing to it and drop the ones that had none. Will be
done in a followup patch.

Changes:
* Simplification of the main search loop on dso__load()
* Replace the search with a 2-pass search:
* First, try to find an image with a proper symtab.
* Second, repeat the search, accepting dynsym.
A second scan should only ever happen when needed debug images are
missing from the buildid cache or stale, i.e., when the cache is out of
sync.
Currently, the second scan also happens when using separated debug
images, since the caching logic doesn't currently know how to cache
those. Improvements to the cache behaviour ought to solve that.

If we have a buildid, then we never want to load an image which has no buildid,
or which has a different buildid, so it makes sense for the check to be built
into dso__load and not done separately. This is fine for old distros which
don't use buildid at all since we do no check in that case.
This refactoring also alleviates some subtle race condition issues by not
opening ELF images twice to check the buildid and then load the symbols, which
could lead to weirdness if an image is replaced under our feet.

The stock newt checkbox tree widget we were using was not really
suitable for hist entry + callchain browsing.
The problems with it were manifold:
- We needed to traverse the whole hist_entry rb_tree to add each entry +
callchains beforehand.
- No control over the colors used for each row
So a new tree widget, based mostly on slang, was written.
It extends the ui_browser class already used for annotate to allow the
user to fold/unfold branches in the callchains tree, using extra fields
in the symbol_map class that is embedded in hist_entry and
callchain_node instances to store the folding state and when changing
this state calculates the number of rows that are produced when showing
a particular hist_entry instance.
This greatly speeds up browsing as we don't have to upfront touch all
the entries and only calculate callchain related operations when some
callchain branch is actually unfolded.
The memory footprint is also reduced as the data structure is not
duplicated, just some extra fields for controling callchain state and to
simplify the process of seeking thru entries (nr_rows, row_offset) were
added.

When parsing the objdump disassembly output we can have goto labels that
are valid hex numbers and thus get confused with lines with machine
code.
Handle the common case of a label that has nothing after it and other
cases where there is just source code by validating the resulting "ip".
It is still possible that we find goto labels that are in the function
address range, but only if they are located before the real address we
should be OK.
A change in the objdump output to have a clear marker separating
addresses from the disassembly would come handy, but we would still have
to deal with older versions.

Hists that have been filtered, because they don't have callchains
matching the parent filter, won't be printed. As such,
hist_entry__snprintf() returns 0 for them, but we don't control
this value and we always print the buffer, which might be
untouched and then only made of random stack garbage.
Not only does it paint the screen with barf, it also prints
the callchains for these hists, even though they have been filtered,
since the hist has been filtered as well.
We need to check the return value of hist_entry__snprintf() and
ignore the hist if it is 0, which means it didn't get any callchain
matching the parent filter. This fixes the barf and the undesired
callchains.

Hists have their hits increased by the event period. And this
period based counting is the foundation of all the stats in
perf report.
But callchains still use the raw number of hits, without taking
the period into account. So when we compute the percentage,
absolute based percentages are totally broken, and relative ones
too in the first parent level. Because we pass the number of events
muliplied by their period as the total number of hits to the
callchain filtering, while callchains expect this number to be
the number of raw hits.
perf report -g graph was simply not working, showing no graph unless
the min percent was zero. And even there the percentage of the
branches was always 0. And may be fractal filtering was broken on
the first branch level too.
flat also was broken, but it was hidden because of other breakages.
Anyway fix this by counting using periods on callchains.

Initialize the callchain radix tree root correctly.
When we walk through the parents, we must stop after the root, but
since it wasn't well initialized, its parent pointer was random.
Also the number of hits was random because uninitialized, hence it
was part of the callchain while the root doesn't contain anything.
This fixes segfaults and percentages followed by empty callchains
while running:

There are situations where there is enough information in the perf.data
to process the samples. Updating the buildid cache may add unecessary
overhead in terms of disk space and time (copying large elf images).
A persistent option to do this already exists via the perfconfig file,
simply do:
[buildid]
dir = /dev/null
This patch provides a way to suppress builid cache updates on a per-run
basis. It addds a new option, -N, to perf record. Buildids are still
generated in the perf.data file.

Currently symbol resolution does not work for 64-bit programs on architectures
that use function descriptors such as ppc64.
The problem is that a symbol doesn't point to a text address, it points to a
data area that contains (amongst other things) a pointer to the text address.
We look for a section called ".opd" which is the function descriptor area. To
create the full symbol table, when we see a symbol in the function descriptor
section we load the first pointer and use that as the text address.

Move them to a session->dead_threads list just like we do with maps that
are replaced, because we may have hist_entries pointing to them.
This fixes a bug when inserting maps for a new thread that reused the
TID, mixing maps for two different threads, causing an endless loop.
The code for insering maps should be made more robust but for .35 this

This patch adds the ability to specify an alternate directory to store the
buildid cache (buildids, copy of binaries). By default, it is hardcoded to
$HOME/.debug. This directory contains immutable data. The layout of the
directory is such that no conflicts in filenames are possible. A modification
in a file, yields a different buildid and thus a different location in the
subdir hierarchy.
You may want to put the buildid cache elsewhere because of disk space
limitation or simply to share the cache between users. It is also useful for
remote collect vs. local analysis of profiles.
This patch adds a new config option to the perfconfig file. Under the tag
'buildid', there is a dir option. For instance, if you have:
$ cat /etc/perfconfig
[buildid]
dir = /var/cache/perf-buildid
All buildids and binaries are be saved in the directory specified. The perf
record, buildid-list, buildid-cache, report, annotate, and archive commands
will it to pull information out.
The option can be set in the system-wide perfconfig file or in the
$HOME/.perfconfig file.

Examples:
$ perf record -a -C0-1,4-7 sleep 1
$ perf top -C0-4
$ perf stat -a -C1,2,3,4 sleep 1
With perf record in per-thread mode with inherit mode on, samples are collected
only when the thread runs on the designated CPUs.
The -C option does not turn on system-wide mode automatically.

We need to set the long name to the name specified via, for instance,
'perf annotate --vmlinux /path/to/vmlinux', if not it will remain as
'[kernel.kallsyms]' and that will make annotate fail when passing this
as the vmlinux name in the call to objdump.
The way this is setup grew unwieldly and dso__load_vmlinux is the
function that should allocate space for the long name, with callers not
assuming that filenames should be allocated somehow by then (strdup,
dso__build_id_filename, etc).
For now this is the minimalistic patch, a proper fix for .36 will be

When we synthetize the existing running tasks though procfs,
we walk through every threads of a process, queuing one comm
events per tid.
But then on report time, event__process_comm() only creates and
sets the comm on a per process granularity. This is the right
thing for comm events that came from the kernel, as they are
only created on exec. Sub-threads then inherit their comm
from fork events. But that doesn't work with our synthetized
comm events taken from procfs informations as the per thread
granularity is done on comm events directly there.
Hence we need event__process_comm() to work with the tid rather
than the pid. It won't change anything for comm events coming
from the kernel but this will fix the synthetized ones.
Before:
$ ./perf report -D | grep COMM | grep firefox

We need to have stdio.h included with _GNU_SOURCEfopr getline,
which is broken with the inclusion of build-id.h.
Keep util.h included first in hist.c
Fixes:
util/hist.c: Dans la fonction «hist_entry__parse_objdump_line» :
util/hist.c:938: attention : déclaration implicite de la fonction « «getline» »
util/hist.c:938: attention : nested extern declaration of «getline»
make: *** [util/hist.o] Erreur 1

Using the same scheme as for git's/perf's pager setup, i.e. if one
doesn't want to, on a newt enabled perf binary, to disable the TUI for
'perf report', its just a matter of doing:
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# printf "[tui]\n\nreport = off\n" >
/root/.perfconfig
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# cat /root/.perfconfig
[tui]
report = off
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]#
System wide settings are also possible, by editing /etc/perfconfig, etc,
i.e. the git machinery for config files applies to perf as well, so when
in doubt where to put your settings, consult the git documentation, if
it fails, please let us know.

We were still using the pathname found on the MMAP event, that could not
be the one we used when recording, so use the build-id cache for that,
only falling back to use the pathname in the MMAP event if no build-ids
are available.
With this we now also are able to do secure, seamless offline annotation.
Example:
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf report -g none -v 2> /dev/null | head -10

Just like if one is using the stdio based pager, or more/less, for that
matter.

Accessing trace values of an 8 size may end up in a segfault
on archs that can't deal with misaligned access, which is the
case for sparc 64. This is because PERF_SAMPLE_RAW are aligned
to 4 and not to 8.
Fix this on the macros that get the values of 8 size.
This fixes segfaults on perf tools in sparc 64.

This is a small fix for a problem affecting live-mode, introduced
recently:
root@tropicana:~# perf trace rwtop
perf trace started with Perl
script /root/libexec/perf-core/scripts/perl/rwtop.pl
Fatal: did not read header event
commit d00a47cce5 added a skip()
function to skip over e.g. header_page, but this doesn't work for
live mode. This patch re-implements skip() to use read() instead of
lseek() to fix that.

The changes made to support host and guest machines in a session, that
started when the 'perf kvm' tool was introduced ended up introducing a
bug where the host_machine was not having its DSOs traversed for
build-id processing.
Fix it by moving some methods to the right classes and considering the
host_machine when processing build-ids.

That could leave filedescriptors open and leak memory. Also stop using
xmalloc, use malloc and handle results just like other error cases in
the same routine that used it.

Without the bloated cplus_demangle from binutils, i.e building with:
$ make NO_DEMANGLE=1 O=~acme/git/build/perf -j3 -C tools/perf/ install
Before:
text data bss dec hex filename
471851 29280 4025056 4526187 45106b /home/acme/bin/perf
After:
[acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ size ~/bin/perf
text data bss dec hex filename
446886 29232 4008576 4484694 446e56 /home/acme/bin/perf
So its a 5.3% size reduction in code, but the interesting part is in the git
diff --stat output:
19 files changed, 20 insertions(+), 1909 deletions(-)
If we ever need some of the things we got from git but weren't using, we just
have to go to the git repo and get fresh, uptodate source code bits.
