99ca423387 perf symbols: Export elf_section_by_name and reuse
Remove duplicated elf_section_by_name() functions from unwind.c and
probe-event.c and use one exported elf_section_by_name() instance
defined in symbol-elf.c.

Note that this also moves get_text_start_address() to merge
HAVE_DWARF_SUPPORT defined area.

37676af15c perf symbols: Limit max callchain using max_stack on DWARF unwinding too
It was affecting only frame-pointer (fp) based callchain processing.

Usage example:

  perf top --call-graph dwarf,1024 --max-stack 2

Works for any tool that does callchain resolving and provides a
--max-stack option.

ab255e7220 perf: parse the .debug_frame section in case .eh_frame is not present
On ARM the debug info is not present in the .eh_frame sections but
in .debug_frame instead, in dwarf format.
Use libunwind to load and parse the debug info.

Dependencies:
 . if present, libunwind >= 1.1 is needed to prevent a segfault when
   parsing the dwarf info,
 . libunwind needs to be configured with --enable-debug-frame. Note:
   --enable-debug-frame is automatically selected on ARM.

5b7ba82a75 perf symbols: Load kernel maps before using
In order to use kernel maps to read object code, those maps must be
adjusted to map to the dso file offset.  Because lazy-initialization is
used, that is not done until symbols are loaded.  However the maps are
first used by thread__find_addr_map() before symbols are loaded.  So
this patch changes thread__find_addr() to "load" kernel maps before
using them.

1d037ca164 perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variables
perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking
unused variables. The variable __used is defined to
__attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to
__attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is
also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning:
'__used__' attribute ignored

__unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition.
If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to
conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name
in its headers.

The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the
kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one
definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the
same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android.
This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with
__maybe_unused.

71ad0f5e4e perf tools: Support for DWARF CFI unwinding on post processing
This brings the support for DWARF cfi unwinding on perf post
processing. Call frame informations are retrieved and then passed
to libunwind that requests memory and register content from the
applications.

Adding unwind object to handle the user stack backtrace based
on the user register values and user stack dump.

The unwind object access the libunwind via remote interface
and provides to it all the necessary data to unwind the stack.

The unwind interface provides following function:
	unwind__get_entries

And callback (specified in above function) to retrieve
the backtrace entries:
	typedef int (*unwind_entry_cb_t)(struct unwind_entry *entry,
					 void *arg);
