This patch is to return error code of perf_new_session function on
failure instead of NULL.
Test Results:
Before Fix:
$ perf c2c report -input
failed to open nput: No such file or directory
$ echo $?
0
$
After Fix:
$ perf c2c report -input
failed to open nput: No such file or directory
$ echo $?
254
$
Committer notes:
Fix 'perf tests topology' case, where we use that TEST_ASSERT_VAL(...,
session), i.e. we need to pass zero in case of failure, which was the
case before when NULL was returned by perf_session__new() for failure,
but now we need to negate the result of IS_ERR(session) to respect that
TEST_ASSERT_VAL) expectation of zero meaning failure.

+ .read_format = read_format,

[perfbuilder@a70e4eeb5549 /]$ gcc --version |& head -1
gcc (GCC) 4.4.7
Also we don't need to include perf_event.h in
tools/perf/lib/include/perf/evsel.h, forward declaring 'struct
perf_event_attr' is enough. And this even fixes the build in some
systems where things are used somewhere down the include path from
perf_event.h without defining __always_inline.

In places where the equivalent was already being done, i.e.:
free(a);
a = NULL;
And in placs where struct members are being freed so that if we have
some erroneous reference to its struct, then accesses to freed members
will result in segfaults, which we can detect faster than use after free
to areas that may still have something seemingly valid.

We got the sane_ctype.h headers from git and kept using it so far, but
since that code originally came from the kernel sources to the git
sources, perhaps its better to just use the one in the kernel, so that
we can leverage tools/perf/check_headers.sh to be notified when our copy
gets out of sync, i.e. when fixes or goodies are added to the code we've
copied.
This will help with things like tools/lib/string.c where we want to have
more things in common with the kernel, such as strim(), skip_spaces(),
etc so as to go on removing the things that we have in tools/perf/util/
and instead using the code in the kernel, indirectly and removing things
like EXPORT_SYMBOL(), etc, getting notified when fixes and improvements
are made to the original code.
Hopefully this also should help with reducing the difference of code
hosted in tools/ to the one in the kernel proper.

Add a 'path' member to 'struct perf_data'. It will keep the configured
path for the data (const char *). The path in struct perf_data_file is
now dynamically allocated (duped) from it.
This scheme is useful/used in following patches where struct
perf_data::path holds the 'configure' directory path and struct
perf_data_file::path holds the allocated path for specific files.
Also it actually makes the code little simpler.

This adds the mmap and mmap2 events to the CTF trace obtained from perf
data.
These events will allow CTF trace visualization tools like Trace Compass
to automatically resolve the symbols of the callchain to the
corresponding function or origin library.
To include those events, one needs to convert with the --all option.
Here follows an output of babeltrace:

After babeltrace commit 5cec03e402aa ("ir: copy variants and sequences
when setting a field path"), 'perf data convert' gets incorrect result
if there's bpf output data. For example:
# perf data convert --to-ctf ./out.ctf
# babeltrace ./out.ctf
[10:44:31.186045346] (+?.?????????) evt: { cpu_id = 0 }, { perf_ip = 0xFFFFFFFF810E7DD1, perf_tid = 23819, perf_pid = 23819, perf_id = 518, raw_len = 3, raw_data = [ [0] = 0xC028E32F, [1] = 0x815D0100, [2] = 0x1000000 ] }
[10:44:31.286101003] (+0.100055657) evt: { cpu_id = 0 }, { perf_ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8105B609, perf_tid = 23819, perf_pid = 23819, perf_id = 518, raw_len = 3, raw_data = [ [0] = 0x35D9F1EB, [1] = 0x15D81, [2] = 0x2 ] }
The expected result of the first sample should be:
raw_data = [ [0] = 0x2FE328C0, [1] = 0x15D81, [2] = 0x1 ] }
however, 'perf data convert' output big endian value to resuling CTF
file.
The reason is a internal change (or a bug?) of babeltrace.
Before this patch, at the first add_bpf_output_values(), byte order of
all integer type is uncertain (is 0, neither 1234 (le) nor 4321 (be)).
It would be fixed by:
perf_evlist__deliver_sample
-> process_sample_event
-> ctf_stream
...
->bt_ctf_trace_add_stream_class
->bt_ctf_field_type_structure_set_byte_order
->bt_ctf_field_type_integer_set_byte_order
during creating the stream.
However, the babeltrace commit mentioned above duplicates types in
sequence to prevent potential conflict in following call stack and link
the newly allocated type into the 'raw_data' sequence:
perf_evlist__deliver_sample
-> process_sample_event
-> ctf_stream
...
-> bt_ctf_trace_add_stream_class
-> bt_ctf_stream_class_resolve_types
...
-> bt_ctf_field_type_sequence_copy
->bt_ctf_field_type_integer_copy
This happens before byte order setting, so only the newly allocated
type is initialized, the byte order of original type perf choose to
create the first raw_data is still uncertain.
Byte order in CTF output is not related to byte order in perf.data.
Setting it to anything other than BT_CTF_BYTE_ORDER_NATIVE solves this
problem (only BT_CTF_BYTE_ORDER_NATIVE needs to be fixed). To reduce
behavior changing, set byte order according to compiling options.

Before this patch each subcommand calls perf_config() by themself,
reading the default configuration together with subcommand specific
options. If a subcommand doesn't have it own options, it needs to call
'perf_config(perf_default_config, NULL)' to ensure .perfconfig is
loaded.
This patch brings perf_config(perf_default_config, NULL) to the very
start of main(), so subcommands don't need to do it.
After this patch, 'llvm.clang-path' works for 'perf trace'.

A new patch in libbabeltrace [1] reveals a object leak problem in
'perf data' CTF support: perf code never releases the event_class
which is allocated in add_event() and stored in evsel's private field.
If libbabeltrace has the above patch applied, leaking event_class
prevents the writer from being destroyed and flushing metadata. For
example:
$ perf record ls
perf.data
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.012 MB perf.data (12 samples) ]
$ perf data convert --to-ctf ./out.ctf
[ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './out.ctf' ]
[ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 0.000 MB (12 samples) ]
$ cat ./out.ctf/metadata
$ ls -l ./out.ctf/metadata
-rw-r----- 1 w00229757 mm 0 Jan 27 10:49 ./out.ctf/metadata
The correct result should be:
...
$ cat ./out.ctf/metadata
/* CTF 1.8 */
trace {
[SNIP]
$ ls -l ./out.ctf/metadata
-rw-r----- 1 w00229757 mm 2446 Jan 27 10:52 ./out.ctf/metadata
The full story is:
Patch [1] of babeltrace redesigns its reference counting scheme. In that
patch:
* writer <- trace (bt_ctf_writer_create)
* trace <- stream_class (bt_ctf_trace_add_stream_class)
* stream_class <- event_class (bt_ctf_stream_class_add_event_class)
('<-' means 'is a parent of')
Holding of event_class causes reference count of corresponding 'writer'
to increase through parent chain. Perf expects that 'writer' is released
(so metadata is flushed) through bt_ctf_writer_put() in
ctf_writer__cleanup(). However, since it never releases event_class, the
reference of 'writer' won't be dropped, so bt_ctf_writer_put() won't
lead to the release of writer.
Before this CTF patch, !(writer <- trace). Even with event_class leaking,
the writer ends up being released.

When converting int values, perf first extractes it to a ulonglong, then
feeds it to babeltrace as a signed value.
For negative 32 bit values (for example, return values of failed
syscalls), the extracted data should be something like 0xfffffffe (-2).
It becomes a large int64 value.
Babeltrace denies to insert it with bt_ctf_field_signed_integer_set_value()
because it is larger than 0x7fffffff, the largest positive value a
32 bit int can be.
This patch introduces adjust_signedness(), which fills high bits of
ulonglong with 1 if the value is negative.

Some parameters of syscall tracepoints named as 'nr', 'event', etc.
When dealing with them, perf convert to ctf meets some problem:
1. If a parameter with name 'nr', it will duplicate syscall's
common field 'nr'. One such syscall is io_submit().
2. If a parameter with name 'event', it is denied to be inserted
because 'event' is a CTF spec keyword[1]. One such syscall is
epoll_ctl.
This patch appends '_dupl_X' suffix to avoid problem 1, prepend a '_'
prefix to avoid problem 2.

For big data files the size of data allocated for stream instance could
get really high. It's needed to flush the data out of the stream once in
a while.
Unfortunately there's no size indication in the stream object, so we
govern the flush based on the number of stored events. Current flush
limit is set ot 100000 events.

Currently we store the data into single data strea/file. The cpu if data
is stored within the event sample. The lttng puts the CPU number that
belongs to the event into the packet context instead into the event.
This patch makes sure that the trace produce by perf does look the same
way. We now use one stream per-CPU. Having it all in one stream
increased the total size of the resulting file. The test went from
416KiB (with perf_cpu event member) to 24MiB due to the required (and
pointless) flush. With the per-cpu streams the total size went up to
588KiB.
