Now it is possible to press CTRL+z at anytime and that will disable the
events being monitored, essentially turning 'top' into 'report', with
pressing CTRL+z again making it enable the events again, returning to
the 'top' behaviour, i.e. dynamic + decaying of older samples.
One may want, for instance, play with:
-d, --delay <n> number of seconds to delay between refreshes
and:
-z, --zero zero history across updates
Plus CTRL+z to see only the events since last zeroing, etc.

For an upcoming feature in 'perf top' we will have a hotkey to
enable/disable events, so remember if the events in the list are
enabled or disabled and allows toggling this state using a new
method.

The problem seems to be a race condition, when the application has just
exited. Some/all fds associated with the perf-events (tracepoints) go
into a POLLHUP/ POLLERR state and the mmap region associated with those
events are unmapped (in perf_evlist__filter_pollfd()).
But we go back and do a perf_evlist__mmap_read() which assumes that the
mmaps are still valid and we hit the crash.
If the mapping for an event is released, its refcnt is 0 (and ->base
is NULL), so ensure we have non-zero refcount before accessing the map.
Note that perf-record has a similar logic but unlike perf-trace, the
record__mmap_read_all() checks the evlist->mmap[i].base before accessing
the map.

Speed up the "perf probe --list" by caching the last used debuginfo.
perf probe --list always open and load debuginfo for each entry of probe
list. This takes very a long time.
E.g. with vfs_* events (total 96 probes)
[root@localhost perf]# time ./perf probe -l &> /dev/null
real 0m25.376s
user 0m24.381s
sys 0m1.012s
To solve this issue, this adds debuginfo_cache to cache the
last used debuginfo on memory.
With this fix, the perf-probe --list significantly improves
its speed.
[root@localhost perf]# time ./perf probe -l &> /dev/null

When the last part of converted events are blacklisted or out-of-text,
those are skipped and perf probe doesn't show usage examples. This
fixes it to show the example even if the last part of event list is
skipped.
E.g. without this patch, events are added, but suddenly end:
# perf probe vfs_*
vfs_caches_init_early is out of .text, skip it.
vfs_caches_init is out of .text, skip it.
Added new events:
probe:vfs_fallocate (on vfs_*)
probe:vfs_open (on vfs_*)
...
probe:vfs_dentry_acceptable (on vfs_*)
probe:vfs_load_quota_inode (on vfs_*)
#
With this fix:
# perf probe vfs_*
vfs_caches_init_early is out of .text, skip it.
vfs_caches_init is out of .text, skip it.
Added new events:
probe:vfs_fallocate (on vfs_*)
...
probe:vfs_load_quota_inode (on vfs_*)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:vfs_load_quota_inode -aR sleep 1
Note that this can be reproduced ONLY IF the vfs_caches_init* is the
last part of matched symbol list. I've checked this happens on
"3.19.0-generic #18-Ubuntu" kernel binary.

Commit e3d09ec812 ("tools lib traceevent:
Export dynamic symbols used by traceevent plugins") adds libtraceevent
dynamic list directly into LDFLAGS, which makes all targets depend on
that list through LDFLAGS.
This is not good since some of targets like libgtk.so doesn't use plugin
at all, but require the existance of that list because of linker
options.
This patch isolates the -Xlink option into LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC_LIST_LDFLAGS,
makes only perf and perf.so use it.

======= Memory map: ========
[SNIP]
The bug is in perf_event__attr_swap(). It swaps all fields in 'struct
perf_event_attr' without checking whether the swapped field exist or
not. In addition, in read_event_desc() allocs memory for attr according
to size read from perf.data.
Therefore, if the perf.data is collected by an old perf (without
aux_watermark, for example), when perf_event__attr_swap() swaping
attr->aux_watermark it destroy malloc's metadata.
This patch introduces boundary checking in perf_event__attr_swap(). It
adds macros bswap_field_64 and bswap_field_32 into
perf_event__attr_swap() to make it only swap exist fields.

Fix perf probe to return an error if no probe is added due to the given
probe point being on the blacklist.
To fix this problem, this moves the blacklist checking to right after
finding symbols/probe-points and marks them as skipped.
If all the symbols are skipped, "perf probe" returns an error as it
fails to find the corresponding probe address.
E.g. currently if a blacklisted probe is given:
# perf probe do_trap && echo 'succeed'
Added new event:
Warning: Skipped probing on blacklisted function: sync_regs
succeed
No! It must fail! With this patch, it correctly fails:
# perf probe do_trap && echo 'succeed'
do_trap is blacklisted function, skip it.
Probe point 'do_trap' not found.

With this fix:

# cat list

Of course, --quiet(-q) still works on --add/--del.

# perf probe -l

Use unique temporary files when copying to buildid dir to prevent races
in case multiple instances are trying to copy same file. This is done by
- creating template in form <path>/.<filename>.XXXXXX where the suffix is
used by mkstemp() to create unique file
- change file mode
- copy content
- if successful link temp file to target file
- unlink temp file
At this point the only file left at target path should be the desired
one either created by us or other instance if we raced. This should also
prevent not yet fully copied files to be visible to to other perf
instances that could try to parse them.
On top of that slow_copyfile no longer needs to deal with file mode when
creating file since temporary file is already created and mode is set.
Succesfully tested by myself by running perf record, archive and reading
the data on other system and by running perf buildid-cache on perf
binary itself. I also did revert fix from 0635b0f that to exposes
previously fixed race with EEXIST and recreator test passed sucessfully.

get many 'struct map' holding references to the '/usr/lib64/libc-2.20.so'
DSO but then at some point some DSO may have no references but we still
don't want to straight away release its resources, because "soon" we may
get a new 'struct map' that needs it and we want to reuse its symtab or
other resources.
So we need some way to garbage collect it when crossing some memory
usage threshold, which is left for anoter patch, for now it is
sufficient to release it when calling dsos__exit(), i.e. when deleting
the whole list as part of deleting the 'struct machine' containing it,
which will leave only referenced objects being used.

To allow concurrent access, next step: refcount struct dso instances, so
that we can ditch unused them when the last map pointing to it goes

Calling the function 'machine__new_module' implies a new 'module' will
be allocated, when in fact what is returned is a 'struct map' instance,
that not necessarily will be instantiated, as if one already exists with
the given module name, it will be returned instead.
So be consistent with other "find and if not there, create" like
functions, like machine__findnew_thread, machine__findnew_dso, etc, and
rename it to machine__findnew_module_map(), that in turn will call
machine__findnew_module_dso().

Traceevent plugins need dynamic symbols exported from libtraceevent.a,
otherwise a dlopen error will occur during plugins loading.
This patch uses dynamic-list-file to export dynamic symbols which will
be used in plugins to perf executable.
The problem is covered up if feature-libpython is enabled, because
PYTHON_EMBED_LDOPTS contains '-Xlinker --export-dynamic' which adds all
symbols to the dynamic symbol table. So we should reproduce the problem
by setting NO_LIBPYTHON=1.

This patch modifies the perf tool to handle the new RECORD type,
PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES.
The number of lost-sample events is stored in
.nr_events[PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES]. The exact number of samples
which the kernel dropped is stored in total_lost_samples.
When the percentage of dropped samples is greater than 5%, a warning
is printed.
Here are some examples:
Eg 1, Recording different frequently-occurring events is safe with the
patch. Only a very low drop rate is associated with such actions.
$ perf record -e '{cycles:p,instructions:p}' -c 20003 --no-time ~/tchain ~/tchain
$ perf report -D | tail
SAMPLE events: 120243

This is because __kmod_path__parse treats '[' leading names as kernel
name instead of names of kernel module.
If perf.data contains build information and the buildid of such modules
can be found, the dso->kernel of it will be set to DSO_TYPE_KERNEL by
__event_process_build_id(), not kernel module.
It will then be passed to dso__load() -> dso__load_kernel_sym() ->
dso__load_kcore() if --kallsyms is provided.
The refered patch adds NULL pointer checker to avoid segfault. However,
such kernel modules are still processed incorrectly.
This patch fixes __kmod_path__parse, makes it treat names like
'[test_module]' as kernel modules.
kmod-path.c is also update to reflect the above changes.

The <fd979c013207> commit intruduced the perf_event_sysfs_show function
to display the event_str value of an attr in kernel/event/core.c. But
the function returns the value with a newline char.
So, if a event also carries a event.unit file, when printing the counter
data perf tool formatting goes for a spin.
That is, because of the event unit, event name is printed in the newline
because of perf_event_sysfs_show returns with a newline char.
Now fixing perf core will break API, hencing proposing a fix in the perf tool.

Commit 4c85935122 ("perf probe: Support
glob wildcards for function name") introduces segfault problems when
debuginfo is not available:
# perf probe 'sys_w*'
Added new events:
Segmentation fault
The first problem resides in find_probe_trace_events_from_map(). In
that function, find_probe_functions() is called to match each symbol
against glob to find the number of matching functions, but still use
map__for_each_symbol_by_name() to find 'struct symbol' for matching
functions. Unfortunately, map__for_each_symbol_by_name() does
exact matching by searching in an rbtree.
It doesn't know glob matching, and not easy for it to support it because
it use rbtree based binary search, but we are unable to ensure all names
matched by the glob (any glob passed by user) reside in one subtree.
This patch drops map__for_each_symbol_by_name(). Since there is no
rbtree again, re-matching all symbols costs a lot. This patch avoid it
by saving all matching results into an array (syms).
The second problem is the lost of tp->realname. In
__add_probe_trace_events(), if pev->point.function is glob, the event
name should be set to tev->point.realname. This patch ensures its
existence by strdup sym->name instead of leaving a NULL pointer there.
After this patch:
# perf probe 'sys_w*'
Added new events:
probe:sys_waitid (on sys_w*)
probe:sys_wait4 (on sys_w*)
probe:sys_waitpid (on sys_w*)
probe:sys_write (on sys_w*)
probe:sys_writev (on sys_w*)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:sys_writev -aR sleep 1

It was inconvenient that perf cannot be quit with SIGINT during
processing samples on TUI especially for large data files.
This was because the first argument of SLang_init_tty(), abort_char,
being 0. The manual says it's the ascii value of the control character
that will be used to generate the interrupt signal [1]. Passing -1
means to use the default value (Ctrl-C).
However, after processing samples, Ctrl-C was used to in other cases as
well - like stepping back from annotate. So recover the original

Allow nesting into directories without Build file. Currently we force
include of the Build file, which fails the build when the Build file is
missing.
We already support empty *-in.o' objects if there's nothing in the
directory to be compiled, so we can just use it for missing Build file
cases.
Also adding this case under tests.
