perf trace: Make "--call-graph" affect just "raw_syscalls:sys_exit"
We don't need the callchains at the syscall enter tracepoint, just when
finishing it at syscall exit, so reduce the overhead by asking for
callchains just at syscall exit.

perf evsel: Rename config_callgraph() to config_callchain() and make it public
The rename is for consistency with the parameter name.
Make it public for fine grained control of which evsels should have
callchains enabled, like, for instance, will be done in the next
changesets in 'perf trace', to enable callchains just on the
"raw_syscalls:sys_exit" tracepoint.

Note that it is advised to increase the number of mmap pages to prevent
event losses when using this new feature. Often, adding `-m 10M` to the
`perf trace` invocation is enough.
This feature is also available in strace when built with libunwind via
`strace -k`. Performance wise, this solution is much better:
Note that it is currently not possible to configure the print output.
Adding such a feature, similar to what is available in `perf script` via
its `--fields` knob can be added later on.

referencing a map named '__bpf_stdout__', perf automatically creates an

[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.012 MB perf.data (2 samples) ]

perf symbols: Adjust symbol for shared objects
He Kuang reported a problem that perf fails to get correct symbol on
Android platform in [1]. The problem can be reproduced on normal x86_64
platform. I will describe the reproducing steps in detail at the end of
commit message.
The reason of this problem is the missing of symbol adjustment for normal
shared objects. In most of the cases skipping adjustment is okay. However,
when '.text' section have different 'address' and 'offset' the result is wrong.
I checked all shared objects in my working platform, only wine dll objects and
debug objects (in .debug) have this problem. However, it is common on Android.
For example:

perf symbols: Record text offset in dso to calculate objdump address
In this patch, the offset of '.text' section is stored into dso
and used here to re-calculate address to objdump.
In most of the cases, executable code is in '.text' section, so the
adjustment made to a symbol in dso__load_sym (using
sym.st_value -= shdr.sh_addr - shdr.sh_offset) should equal to
'sym.st_value -= dso->text_offset'. Therefore, adding text_offset back
get objdump address from symbol address (rip). However, it is not true
for kernel and kernel module since there could be multiple executable
sections with different offset. Exclude kernel for this reason.
After this patch, even dso->adjust_symbols is set to true for shared
objects, map__rip_2objdump() and map__objdump_2mem() would return
correct result, so perf behavior of annotate won't be changed.

perf tools: Fix PMU term format max value calculation
Currently the max value of format is calculated by the bits number. It
relies on the continuity of the format.
However, uncore event format is not continuous. E.g. uncore qpi event
format can be 0-7,21.
If bit 21 is set, there is parsing issues as below.

perf tools: Add time conversion event
Intel PT uses the time members from the perf_event_mmap_page to convert
between TSC and perf time.
Due to a lack of foresight when Intel PT was implemented, those time
members were recorded in the (implementation dependent) AUXTRACE_INFO
event, the structure of which is generally inaccessible outside of the
Intel PT decoder. However now the conversion between TSC and perf time
is needed when processing a jitdump file when Intel PT has been used for
tracing.
So add a user event to record the time members. 'perf record' will
synthesize the event if the information is available. And session
processing will put a copy of the event on the session so that tools
like 'perf inject' can easily access it.

perf/ring_buffer: Prepare writing into the ring-buffer from the end
Convert perf_output_begin() to __perf_output_begin() and make the later
function able to write records from the end of the ring-buffer.
Following commits will utilize the 'backward' flag.
This is the core patch to support writing to the ring-buffer backwards,
which will be introduced by upcoming patches to support reading from
overwritable ring-buffers.
In theory, this patch should not introduce any extra performance
overhead since we use always_inline, but it does not hurt to double
check that assumption:
When CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is disabled, the output object is nearly
identical to original one. See:
When CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is enabled, the resuling object file becomes
smaller:
$ size kernel/events/ring_buffer.o*
text data bss dec hex filename
4641 4 8 4653 122d kernel/events/ring_buffer.o.old
4545 4 8 4557 11cd kernel/events/ring_buffer.o.new
Performance testing results:
Calling 3000000 times of 'close(-1)', use gettimeofday() to check
duration. Use 'perf record -o /dev/null -e raw_syscalls:*' to capture
system calls. In ns.
Testing environment:
CPU : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60GHz
Kernel : v4.5.0
MEAN STDVAR

PRE 2253846.700 9997.014
POST 2257495.540 8516.293
Where 'BASE' is pure performance without capturing. 'PRE' is test
result of pure 'v4.5.0' kernel. 'POST' is test result after this
patch.
Considering the stdvar, this patch doesn't hurt performance, within
noise margin.

holder.

The migration of pkg events does not work either. Not that I'm surprised.
I really could not be bothered to decode that loop mess and simply replaced it
by querying the proper cpumasks which give us the answer in a comprehensible
way.
This also requires to direct the event to the current active reader CPU in
cstate_pmu_event_init() otherwise the hotplug logic can't work.

Fix this by always updating time if EVENT_TIME was set, as opposed to
only updating time when EVENT_TIME changed.

That lead to --tui mode not allowing to expand call chain elements if a

perf tools: Add support for skipping itrace instructions
When using 'perf script' to look at PT traces it is often useful to
ignore the initialization code at the beginning.
On larger traces which may have many millions of instructions in
initialization code doing that in a pipeline can be very slow, with perf
script spending a lot of CPU time calling printf and writing data.
This patch adds an extension to the --itrace argument that skips 'n'
events (instructions, branches or transactions) at the beginning. This
is much more efficient.

Add support for BTS (Adrian Hunter)

The problem was noticed with running:

Where the samples wouldn't get resolved because perf_sample.cpumode
would be left as zero, i.e. PERF_RECORD_MISC_CPUMODE_UNKNOWN, not
resolving as kernel, hypervisor or user cpu modes.

So the test flow is:
1. Run: 'make -C tools/perf build-test'
2. One of its tests failed, in this case, the 'tarpkg' one
3. Look at what went wrong, by looking at the output of that test, in
tools/perf/tarpkg
Admittedly, this should be shortcircuited to showing what went wrong directly
from the 'make build-test' step, but lets first fix this tarpkg one and the
problem it spotted, which should be fixed by adding some extra file to the
tools/perf/MANIFEST so that detached tarballs continue being self contained and
build successfully.

perf probe: No need to use formatting strbuf method
We have addch() for chars, add() for fixed size data, and addstr() for
variable length strings, use them.

perf help: Use asprintf instead of adhoc equivalents
That doesn't chekcs malloc return and that, when using strbuf, if it
can't grow, just explodes away via die().

perf tools: Do not include stringify.h from the kernel sources
Use instead the copy just made to tools/include/linux/.

tools include: Copy linux/stringify.h from the kernel
There is code in tools/ that is directly including this file from the
kernel, and this is verboten for a while, copy it so that the next csets
can fix this situation.
