Compression is implemented using the functions from zstd.c. As the memory
to operate on the compression uses mmap->aio.data[] buffers. If Zstd
streaming compression API fails for some reason the data to be compressed
are just copied into the memory buffers using plain memcpy().
Compressed trace frame consists of an array of PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED
records. Each element of the array is not longer that PERF_SAMPLE_MAX_SIZE
and consists of perf_event_header followed by the compressed chunk
that is decompressed on the loading stage.
perf_mmap__aio_push() is replaced by perf_mmap__push() which is now used
in the both serial and AIO streaming cases. perf_mmap__push() is extended
with positive return values to signify absence of data ready for
processing.

Implement a --mmap-flush option that specifies minimal number of bytes
that is extracted from mmaped kernel buffer to store into a trace. The
default option value is 1 byte what means every time trace writing
thread finds some new data in the mmaped buffer the data is extracted,
possibly compressed and written to a trace.
$ tools/perf/perf record --mmap-flush 1024 -e cycles -- matrix.gcc
$ tools/perf/perf record --aio --mmap-flush 1K -e cycles -- matrix.gcc
The option is independent from -z setting, doesn't vary with compression
level and can serve two purposes.
The first purpose is to increase the compression ratio of a trace data.
Larger data chunks are compressed more effectively so the implemented
option allows specifying data chunk size to compress. Also at some cases
executing more write syscalls with smaller data size can take longer
than executing less write syscalls with bigger data size due to syscall
overhead so extracting bigger data chunks specified by the option value
could additionally decrease runtime overhead.
The second purpose is to avoid self monitoring live-lock issue in system
wide (-a) profiling mode. Profiling in system wide mode with compression
(-a -z) can additionally induce data into the kernel buffers along with
the data from monitored processes. If performance data rate and volume
from the monitored processes is high then trace streaming and
compression activity in the tool is also high. High tool process
activity can lead to subtle live-lock effect when compression of single
new byte from some of mmaped kernel buffer leads to generation of the
next single byte at some mmaped buffer. So perf tool process ends up in
endless self monitoring.
Implemented synch parameter is the mean to force data move independently
from the specified flush threshold value. Despite the provided flush
value the tool needs capability to unconditionally drain memory buffers,
at least in the end of the collection.
Committer testing:
Running with the default value, i.e. as soon as there is something to
read go on consuming, we first write the synthesized events, small
chunks of about 128 bytes:
# perf trace -m 2048 --call-graph dwarf -e write -- perf record
<SNIP>
101.142 ( 0.004 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x210db60, count: 120) = 120

record__write (inlined)
process_synthesized_event (/home/acme/bin/perf)
perf_tool__process_synth_event (inlined)
perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events (/home/acme/bin/perf)
Then we move to reading the mmap buffers consuming the events put there
by the kernel perf infrastructure:
107.561 ( 0.005 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7f1befc02000, count: 336) = 336

<SNIP same backtrace as in the 107.561 timestamp>
12920.094 ( 0.155 ms): perf/25821 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7f1befc02150, count: 261816) = 261816

<SNIP same backtrace as in the 107.561 timestamp>
If we limit it to write only when more than 16MB are available for
reading, it throttles that to a quarter of the --mmap-pages set for
'perf record', which by default get to 528384 bytes, found out using
'record -v':
mmap flush: 132096
mmap size 528384B
With that in place all the writes coming from
record__mmap_read_evlist(), i.e. from the mmap buffers setup by the
kernel perf infrastructure were at least 132096 bytes long.
Trying with a bigger mmap size:
perf trace -e write perf record -v -m 2048 --mmap-flush 16M
74982.928 ( 2.471 ms): perf/26500 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7ff94a6cc000, count: 3580888) = 3580888
74985.406 ( 2.353 ms): perf/26500 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7ff949ecb000, count: 3453256) = 3453256
74987.764 ( 2.629 ms): perf/26500 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7ff9496ca000, count: 3859232) = 3859232
74990.399 ( 2.341 ms): perf/26500 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7ff948ec9000, count: 3769032) = 3769032
74992.744 ( 2.064 ms): perf/26500 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7ff9486c8000, count: 3310520) = 3310520
74994.814 ( 2.619 ms): perf/26500 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7ff947ec7000, count: 4194688) = 4194688
74997.439 ( 2.787 ms): perf/26500 write(fd: 3</root/perf.data>, buf: 0x7ff9476c6000, count: 4029760) = 4029760
Was again limited to a quarter of the mmap size:
mmap flush: 2098176
mmap size 8392704B
A warning about that would be good to have but can be added later,
something like:
"max flush is a quarter of the mmap size, if wanting to bump the mmap
flush further, bump the mmap size as well using -m/--mmap-pages"
Also rename the 'sync' parameters to 'synch' to keep tools/perf building

Multi AIO trace writing allows caching more kernel data into userspace
memory postponing trace writing for the sake of overall profiling data
thruput increase. It could be seen as kernel data buffer extension into
userspace memory.
With an --aio option value different from 0 (default value is 1) the
tool has capability to cache more and more data into user space along
with delegating spill to AIO.
That allows avoiding to suspend at record__aio_sync() between calls of
record__mmap_read_evlist() and increases profiling data thruput at the
cost of userspace memory.

perf_mmap__read_done()
It cannot use perf_mmap__read_backward(). Because it always reads the
stale buffer which is already processed. Furthermore, the forward and
backward concepts have been removed. The perf_mmap__read_backward() will
be replaced and discarded later.

The direction of overwrite mode is backward. The last perf_mmap__read()
will set tail to map->prev. Need to correct the map->prev to head which
is the end of next read.
It will be used later.

The 'start' and 'prev' variables are duplicates in perf_mmap__read().
Use 'map->prev' to replace 'start' in perf_mmap__read_*().

The new function perf_mmap__read_init() is factored out from
perf_mmap__push().
It is to calculate the 'start' and 'end' of the available data in
ringbuffer.
No functional change.

In perf_mmap__push(), the 'size' need to be recalculated, otherwise the
invalid data might be pushed to the record in overwrite mode.
The issue is introduced by commit 7fb4b407a1 ("perf mmap: Don't
discard prev in backward mode").
When the ring buffer is full in overwrite mode, backward_rb_find_range()
will be called to recalculate the 'start' and 'end'. The 'size' needs to
be recalculated accordingly.
Unconditionally recalculate the 'size', not just for full ring buffer in
overwrite mode. Because:
- There is no harmful to recalculate the 'size' for other cases.
- The code of calculating 'start' and 'end' will be factored out later.
The new function does not need to return 'size'.

'perf record' can switch its output data file. The new output should
only store the data after switching. However, in overwrite backward
mode, the new output still can have data from before switching. That
also brings extra overhead.
At the end of mmap_read(), the position of the processed ring buffer is
saved in md->prev. Next mmap_read should be end in md->prev if it is not
overwriten. That avoids processing duplicate data. However, md->prev is
discarded. So next the mmap_read() has to process whole valid ring
buffer, which probably includes old processed data.
Avoid calling backward_rb_find_range() when md->prev is still
available.
