Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo f5812a7a33 perf_counter tools: Adjust only prelinked symbol's addresses
I.e. we can't handle these two kinds of files in the same way:

1) prelinked system library:

[acme@doppio pahole]$ readelf -s /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so | egrep 'FUNC.+GLOBAL.+dwfl_report_elf'
   278: 00000030450105a0   261 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT   12 dwfl_report_elf@@ELFUTILS_0.122

2) not prelinked library with debug information from a -debuginfo package:

[acme@doppio pahole]$ readelf -s /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so.debug | egrep 'FUNC.+GLOBAL.+dwfl_report_elf'
   629: 00000000000105a0   261 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT   12 dwfl_report_elf
[acme@doppio pahole]$

Now the numbers I got for a pahole perf run are in line with
the numbers I get from oprofile.

Paul Mackerras 57e7986ed1 perf_counter: Provide a way to enable counters on exec
This provides a way to mark a counter to be enabled on the next
exec. This is useful for measuring the total activity of a
program without including overhead from the process that
launches it.

This also changes the perf stat command to use this new
facility.

Paul Mackerras 051ae7f734 perf_counter tools: Reduce perf stat measurement overhead/skew
Vince Weaver reported a 'perf stat' measurement overhead in the
count of retired instructions, which can amount to a +6000
instructions inflated count in the reported count.

At present, perf stat creates its counters on the perf process.  Thus
the counters count the fork and various other activity in both the
parent and child, such as the resolver overhead for resolving PLT
entries for any libc functions that haven't been called before, such
as execvp.

This reduces the overhead by creating the counters on the child process
after the fork, using a couple of pipes to synchronize so that the
child process waits until the parent has created the counters before
doing the exec.  To eliminate the PLT resolution overhead on calling
execvp, this does a dummy execvp first which will always fail.

With this, the overhead of executing a program goes down from over
4800 instructions to about 90 instructions on powerpc (32-bit).
This was measured with a statically-linked program written in
assembler which only does the 3 instructions needed to call _exit(0).

Before:

$ perf stat -e 0:1:u ./three

 Performance counter stats for './three':

           4858  instructions

    0.001274523  seconds time elapsed

After:

$ perf stat -e 0:1:u ./three

 Performance counter stats for './three':

             92  instructions

    0.000468153  seconds time elapsed

Jaswinder Singh Rajput c3043569dc perf stat: Micro-optimize the code: memcpy is only required if no event is selected and !null_run
Set attrs and nr_counters if no event is selected and !null_run.

Setting of attrs should depend on number of counters,
so we need to memcpy only for sizeof(default_attrs)

Also set nr_counters as ARRAY_SIZE(default_attrs) in place of
hardcoded value.

Peter Zijlstra e6e18ec79b perf_counter: Rework the sample ABI
The PERF_EVENT_READ implementation made me realize we don't
actually need the sample_type int the output sample, since
we already have that in the perf_counter_attr information.

Therefore, remove the PERF_EVENT_MISC_OVERFLOW bit and the
event->type overloading, and imply put counter overflow
samples in a PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE type.

This also fixes the issue that event->type was only 32-bit
and sample_type had 64 usable bits.

Looking backward for the first space from the end of a line in
/proc/pid/maps does not find the start of the pathname of the mapped
file if it contains a space.

Since the only slashes we have in this file occur in the (absolute!)
pathname column of file mappings, looking for the first slash in a
line is a safe method to find the name.

Peter Zijlstra 3d906ef10a perf_counter tools: Handle overlapping MMAP events
Martin Schwidefsky reported "perf report" symbol resolution
problems on S390.

Since we only report MMAP, not MUNMAP, we have to deal with
overlapping maps.

We used to simply throw out the old map on the assumption whole
maps got unmapped. This obviously doesn't deal with partial
unmaps. However it appears some dynamic linkers do fancy
partial unmaps (s390), so do something more elaborate and
truncate the old maps, only removing them when they've been
fully covered.

This resolves (part of) the S390 symbol resolution problems.

Ingo Molnar c1f47b454c perf_counter tools: Fix vmlinux fallback when running on a different kernel
Lucas De Marchi reported that perf report and perf annotate
displays mismatching profile if a perf.data is analyzed on
an older kernel - even if the correct vmlinux is specified
via the -k option.

The reason is the fallback path in util/symbol.c:dso__load_kernel():

int dso__load_kernel(struct dso *self, const char *vmlinux,
                     symbol_filter_t filter, int verbose)
{
        int err = -1;

        if (vmlinux)
                err = dso__load_vmlinux(self, vmlinux, filter, verbose);

        if (err)
                err = dso__load_kallsyms(self, filter, verbose);

        return err;
}

dso__load_vmlinux() returns negative on error, but on success it
returns the number of symbols loaded - which confuses the function
to load the kallsyms.

This is normally harmless, as reporting is usually performed on the
same kernel that is analyzed - but if there's a mismatch then we
load the wrong kallsyms and create a non-sensical symbol tree.

The fix is to only fall back to kallsyms on errors.

Paul Mackerras 9cffa8d533 perf_counter tools: Define and use our own u64, s64 etc. definitions
On 64-bit powerpc, __u64 is defined to be unsigned long rather than
unsigned long long.  This causes compiler warnings every time we
print a __u64 value with %Lx.

Rather than changing __u64, we define our own u64 to be unsigned long
long on all architectures, and similarly s64 as signed long long.
For consistency we also define u32, s32, u16, s16, u8 and s8.  These
definitions are put in a new header, types.h, because these definitions
are needed in util/string.h and util/symbol.h.

The main change here is the mechanical change of __[us]{64,32,16,8}
to remove the "__".  The other changes are:

* Create types.h
* Include types.h in perf.h, util/string.h and util/symbol.h
* Add types.h to the LIB_H definition in Makefile
* Added (u64) casts in process_overflow_event() and print_sym_table()
  to kill two remaining warnings.
