3aafe5ae08 perf symbols: Use both runtime and debug images
We keep both a 'runtime' elf image as well as a 'debug' elf image around
and generate symbols by looking at both of these.

This eliminates the need for the want_symtab/goto restart mechanism
combined with iterating over and reopening the elf images a second time.

Also give dso__synthsize_plt_symbols() the runtime image (which has
dynsyms) instead of the symbol image (which may only have a symtab and
no dynsyms).

Previously if a debug image was found all runtime images were ignored.

This fixes 2 issues:

 - Symbol resolution to failure on PowerPC systems with debug symbols
   installed, as the debug images lack a '.opd' section which contains
   function descriptors.

 - On all archs, plt synthesis failed when a debug image was loaded and
   that debug image lacks a dynsym section while a runtime image has a
   dynsym section.

Assumptions:

 - If a .opd section exists, it is contained in the highest priority
   image with a dynsym section.

 - This generally implies that the debug image lacks a dynsym section
   (ie: it is marked as NO_BITS).

261360b6e9 perf symbols: Convert dso__load_syms to take 2 symsrc's
To properly handle platforms with an opd section, both a runtime image
(which contains the opd section but possibly lacks symbols) and a symbol
image (which probably lacks an opd section but has symbols).

The next patch ("perf symbol: use both runtime and debug images")
adjusts the callsite in dso__load() to take advantage of being able to
pass both runtime & debug images.

Assumptions made here:

 - The opd section, if it exists in the runtime image, has headers in
   both the runtime image and the debug/syms image.

 - The index of the opd section (again, only if it exists in the runtime
   image) is the same in both the runtime and debug/symbols image.

Both of these are true on RHEL, but it is unclear how accurate they are
in general (on platforms with function descriptors in opd sections).

d26cd12b46 perf symbols: Factor want_symtab out of dso__load_sym()
Only one callsite of dso__load_sym() uses the want_symtab functionality,
so place the logic at the callsite instead of within dso__load_sym().

This sets us up for removal of want_symtab completely once we keep
multiple elf handles (within symsrc's) around.

005f92947a perf symbols: Set symtab_type in dso__load_sym
In certain cases, dso__load requires dso->symbol_type to be set prior to
calling it. With the introduction of symsrc*, the symtab_type is now
stored in a symsrc which is then passed to dso__load_sym().

Change dso__load_sym() to use the symtab_type from them symsrc (setting
dso->symtab_type as well).

b68e2f919c perf symbols: Introduce symsrc structure.
Factors opening of certain sections & tracking certain elf info into an
external structure.

The goal here is to keep multiple elfs (and their looked up
sections/indexes) around during the symbol generation process (in
dso__load()).

We need this to properly resolve symbols on PPC due to the use of
function descriptors & the .opd section (ie: symbols which are functions
don't point to their actual location, they point to their function
descriptor in .opd which contains their actual location.

It would be possible to just keep the (Elf *) around, but then we'd end
up with duplicate code for looking up the same sections and checking for
the existence of an important section wouldn't be as clean (and we need
to keep the Elf stuff confined to symtab-elf.c).

492746546f perf symbols: Avoid segfault in elf_strptr
If we call elf_section_by_name() with a truncated elf image (ie: the
file header indicates that the section headers are placed past the end
of the file), elf_strptr() causes a segfault within libelf.

Avoid this by checking that we can access the section string table
properly.

Should really be fixed in libelf/elfutils.

515850e4fb perf symbols: only set vmlinux longname & mark loaded if really loaded
dso__load_vmlinux() uses the filename passed to it to directly set the
dso long_name, which resulted in a use after free due to
dso__load_vmlinux_path() treating 0 symbols as a load failure and
subsequently freeing the contents of dso->long_name.

Change dso__load_vmlinux() so that finding 0 symbols does not cause it
to consider itself loaded, and do not set long_name in such a case.

8215152093 perf symbols: Remove unused 'end' arg in kallsyms parse cb
kallsyms__parse() takes a callback that is called on every discovered
symbol. As /proc/kallsyms does not supply symbol sizes, the callback was
simply called with end=start, faking the symbol size to 1.

All of the callbacks (there are 2) used in calls to kallsyms__parse()
are _only_ used as callbacks for kallsyms__parse().

Given that kallsyms__parse() lacks real information about what
end/length should be, don't make up a length in kallsyms__parse().
Instead have the callbacks handle guessing the length.

Also relocate a comment regarding symbol creation to the callback which
does symbol creation (kallsyms__parse() is not in general used to create
symbols).

start=start, end=start).

In map__process_kallsym_symbol(), the length is calculated as 'end -
start + 1', making the length 1, not 0.

Essentially, start & end define an inclusive range.

26d330226b perf tools: Support for DWARF mode callchain
This patch enables perf to use the DWARF unwind code.

It extends the perf record '-g' option with following arguments:
  'fp'           - provides framepointer based user
                   stack backtrace
  'dwarf[,size]' - provides DWARF (libunwind) based user stack
                   backtrace. The size specifies the size of the
                   user stack dump. If omitted it is 8192 by default.

If libunwind is found during the perf build, then the 'dwarf' argument
becomes available for record command. The 'fp' stays as default option
in any case.

Examples: (perf compiled with libunwind)

   perf record -g dwarf ls
      - provides dwarf unwind with 8192 as stack dump size

   perf record -g dwarf,4096 ls
      - provides dwarf unwind with 4096 as stack dump size

   perf record -g -- ls
   perf record -g fp ls
      - provides frame pointer unwind

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);

6a40cd90f5 perf tools: Add libunwind dependency for DWARF CFI unwinding
Adding libunwind to be linked with perf if available. It's required
for the to get dwarf cfi unwinding support.

Also building perf with the dwarf call frame informations by default,
so that we can unwind callchains in perf itself.

Adding LIBUNWIND_DIR Makefile variable allowing user to specify
the directory with libunwind to be linked. This is used for
debug purposes.

393be2e374 perf symbols: Support minimal build without libelf
Now we have isolated all ELF-specific stuff, it's possible to build
without libelf. The output binary can do most of jobs but lacks (user
level) symbol information - kernel symbols are still accessable thanks
to the kallsyms.

To build perf without libelf (elfutils), give NO_LIBELF=1 to make.

For now, only 'perf probe' command is removed since it depends on
libelf/libdw heavily.

  $ perf lock record -a -- sleep 1
  invalid or unsupported event: 'lock:lock_acquire'
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

Improve the message with a suggestion on which CONFIG options are needed:
  $ perf lock record -a -- sleep 1
  tracepoint lock:lock_acquire is not enabled. Are CONFIG_LOCKDEP and CONFIG_LOCK_STAT enabled?

0076d546b4 perf scripts python: Add event_analyzing_sample.py as a sample for general event handling
Currently only trace point events are supported in perf/python script,
the first 3 patches of this serie add the support for all types of
events. This script is just a simple sample to show how to gather the
basic information of the events and analyze them.

This script will create one object for each event sample and insert them
into a table in a database, then leverage the simple SQL commands to
sort/group them. User can modify or write their brand new functions
according to their specific requirment.

Here is the sample of how to use the script:

 $ perf record -a tree
 $ perf script -s process_event.py

There is 100 records in gen_events table
Statistics about the general events grouped by thread/symbol/dso:

73994dc158 perf script: Replace "struct thread" with "struct addr_location" as a parameter for "process_event()"
Both perl and python script start processing events other than trace
points, and it's useful to pass the resolved symbol and the dso info to
the event handler in script for better analysis and statistics.

Struct thread is already a member of struct addr_location, using
addr_location will keep the thread info, while providing additional
symbol and dso info if exist, so that the script itself doesn't need to
bother to do the symbol resolving and dso searching work.

6a6daec2ae perf script: Add general python handler to process non-tracepoint events
This patch just follows Robert Richter's idea and the commit 37a058ea0
	"perf script: Add generic perl handler to process events"
to similarly add a python handler for general events other than tracepoints.

For non-tracepoint events, this patch will try to find a function named
"process_event" in the python script, and pass the event attribute,
perf_sample, raw_data in format of raw string. And the python script can
use "struct" module's unpack function to disasemble the needed info and process.

2ede8303db perf tools: Fix lib/traceevent build dir with OUTPUT variable set
With the OUTPUT variable set the libtraceevent.a file is wrongly built
in the source directory:

 + make -d OUTPUT=/.../.build/perf-user/ DESTDIR=/.../.install/perf-user/
 ...
     Considering target file `../lib/traceevent//libtraceevent.a'.
      File `../lib/traceevent//libtraceevent.a' does not exist.
      Finished prerequisites of target file `../lib/traceevent//libtraceevent.a'.
     Must remake target `../lib/traceevent//libtraceevent.a'.
 Invoking recipe from Makefile:837 to update target `../lib/traceevent//libtraceevent.a'.
 Putting child 0x703850 (../lib/traceevent//libtraceevent.a) PID 8365 on the chain.
 Live child 0x703850 (../lib/traceevent//libtraceevent.a) PID 8365
     SUBDIR ../lib/traceevent/

 $ git clean -nxd
 Would remove tools/lib/traceevent/.event-parse.d
 Would remove tools/lib/traceevent/.parse-filter.d
 Would remove tools/lib/traceevent/.parse-utils.d
 Would remove tools/lib/traceevent/.trace-seq.d
 Would remove tools/lib/traceevent/event-parse.o
 Would remove tools/lib/traceevent/libtraceevent.a
 Would remove tools/lib/traceevent/parse-filter.o
 Would remove tools/lib/traceevent/parse-utils.o
 Would remove tools/lib/traceevent/trace-seq.o

This patch fixes this.

Note: Though this should already work with O=$outputdir we better use
the OUTPUT variable directly.

fcf65bf149 perf evsel: Cache associated event_format
We already lookup the associated event_format when reading the perf.data
header, so that we can cache the tracepoint name in evsel->name, so do
it a little further and save the event_format itself, so that we can
avoid relookups in tools that need to access it.

Change the tools to take the most obvious advantage, when they were
using pevent_find_event directly. More work is needed for further
removing the need of a pointer to pevent, such as when asking for event
field values ("common_pid" and the other common fields and per
event_format fields).

This is something that was planned but only got actually done when
Andrey Wagin needed to do this lookup at perf_tool->sample() time, when
we don't have access to pevent (session->pevent) to use with
pevent_find_event().

8b6ee4c5d4 perf header: Set the tracepoint names on PERF_RECORD_HEADER_TRACING_DATA
We only have access to pevent after processing that event, so set the
tracepoint names there.

Right now this isn't a problem as we're deferring resolving the
tracepoint names to when we process samples, but in the next patches we
will be doing it in advance, to avoid relookups, so do it earlier, as
soon as we process the tracing data event.
