Also, streamline the code a bit more, add asserts for various state
machine failures (they should be debugged if they occur) and fix
a few odd ends.

08f69e6c2e perf sched: Print PIDs too
Often it's useful to know the PID of the task as well - print it
out too.

( While at it, reformat the output to be a bit more
  paste-into-commit-logs friendly. )

ea57c4f520 perf tools: Implement counter output multiplexing
Finish the -M/--multiplex option implementation:

 - separate it out from group_fd

 - correctly set it via the ioctl and dont mmap counters that
   are multiplexed

 - modify the perf record event loop to deal with buffer-less
   counters.

 - remove the -g option from perf sched record

 - account for unordered events in perf sched latency

 - (add -f to perf sched record to ease measurements)

 - skip idle threads (pid==0) in latency output

The result is better latency output by 'perf sched latency':

aa1ab9d26a perf tools: Fix processing of randomly serialized sched traces
Currently it's possible to meet such too high latency results
with 'perf sched latency'.

 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Task              |  Runtime ms | Switches | Average delay ms | Maximum delay ms |
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 xfce4-panel       |    0.222 ms |        2 | avg: 4718.345 ms | max: 9436.493 ms |
 scsi_eh_3         |    3.962 ms |       36 | avg:   55.957 ms | max: 1977.829 ms |

The origin is on traces that are sometimes badly serialized across cpus.
For example the raw traces that raised such results for xfce4-panel:

(1)          [init]-0     [000]  1494.663899990: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] (R) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120]
(2)     xfce4-panel-4569  [000]  1494.663928373: sched_switch: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] (S) ==> swapper:0 [140]
(3)            Xorg-4276  [001]  1494.663860125: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000]
(4)            Xorg-4276  [001]  1504.098252756: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000]
(5)            perf-5219  [000]  1504.100353302: sched_switch: task perf:5219 [120] (S) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120]

The traces are processed in the order they arrive. Then in (2),
xfce4-panel sleeps, it is first waken up in (3) and eventually
scheduled in (5).

The latency reported is then 1504 - 1495 = 9 secs, as reported by perf
sched. But this is wrong, we are confident in the fact the traces are
nicely serialized while we should actually more trust the timestamps.

If we reorder by timestamps we get:

(1)            Xorg-4276  [001]  1494.663860125: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000]
(2)          [init]-0     [000]  1494.663899990: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] (R) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120]
(3)     xfce4-panel-4569  [000]  1494.663928373: sched_switch: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] (S) ==> swapper:0 [140]
(4)            Xorg-4276  [001]  1504.098252756: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000]
(5)            perf-5219  [000]  1504.100353302: sched_switch: task perf:5219 [120] (S) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120]

Now the trace make more sense, xfce4-panel is sleeping. Then it is
woken up in (1), scheduled in (2)
It goes to sleep in (3), woken up in (4) and scheduled in (5).

Now, latency captured between (1) and (2) is of 39 us.
And between (4) and (5) it is 2.1 ms.

Such pattern of bad serializing is the origin of the high latencies
reported by perf sched.

Basically, we need to check whether wake up time is higher than
schedule out time. If it's not the case, we need to tag the current
work atom as invalid.

Beside that, we may need to work later on a better ordering of the
traces given by the kernel.

After this patch:

xfce4-session     |    0.221 ms |        1 | avg:    0.538 ms | max:    0.538 ms |

d13025222c perf tools: Add an option to multiplex counters in a single channel
Add an option to multiplex counters output in the channel of
the group leader, ie: the first counter opened:

	-M --multiplex

The effect is better serialized samples. This is especially
useful for tracepoint samples that need to be well serialized
for their post-processing.

Also make use of this option in 'perf sched'.

1fc35b29b4 perf sched: Implement the 'perf sched record' subcommand
Implement the 'perf sched record' subcommand that adds a
default list of events, turns on raw sampling and system-wide
tracing and passes off the rest of the command to perf record.

This is more convenient than having to specify the events all
the time.

Before:

 $ perf record -a -R -e sched:sched_switch:r -e sched:sched_stat_wait:r -e sched:sched_stat_sleep:r -e sched:sched_stat_iowait:r -e sched:sched_process_exit:r -e sched:sched_process_fork:r -e sched:sched_wakeup:r -e sched:sched_migrate_task:r -c 1 sleep 1

After:

 $ perf sched record -f sleep 1

Also fix an assumption in the event string parser that assumed
that strings passed in can be modified. (In this case they wont
be as they come from a readonly constant section.)

f2858d8ad9 perf sched: Add 'perf sched latency' and 'perf sched replay'
Separate the option parsing cleanly and add two variants:

 - 'perf sched latency' (can be abbreviated via 'perf sched lat')
 - 'perf sched replay'  (can be abbreviated via 'perf sched rep')

Also add a repeat count option to replay and add a separation
set of options for replay.

Do the sorting setup only in the latency sub-command.

Display separate help screens for 'perf sched' and
'perf sched replay -h' - i.e. further separation of the
sub-commands.

1756220530 perf sched: Rename struct lat_snapshot to struct work atoms
To measures the latencies, we capture the sched atoms data into
a specific structure named struct lat_snapshot.

As this structure can be used for other purposes of scheduler
profiling and mirrors what happens in a thread work atom, lets
rename it to struct work_atom and propagate this renaming in
other functions and structures names to keep it coherent.

cdce9d738b perf sched: Add sched latency profiling
Add the -l --latency option that reports statistics about the
scheduler latencies.

For now, the latencies are measured in the following sequence
scope:

- task A is sleeping (D or S state)
- task B wakes up A
         ^

         |

   latency timeframe

         |

- task A is scheduled in

Start by recording every scheduler events:

	perf record -e sched:*

and then fetch the results:

	perf sched -l

419ab0d6a9 perf sched: Make it easier to plug in new sub profilers

sched events reader can plug their own callbacks.

This makes easier the addition of new perf sched sub commands.

4653881802 perf sched: Fix bad event alignment
perf sched raises the following error when it meets a sched
switch event:

perf: builtin-sched.c:286: register_pid: Assertion `!(pid >= 65536)' failed.
Abandon

Currently in x86-64, the sched switch events have a hole in the
middle of the structure:

	u16 common_type;
	u8 common_flags;
	u8 common_preempt_count;
	u32 common_pid;
	u32 common_tgid;

	char prev_comm[16];
	u32 prev_pid;
	u32 prev_prio;
			<--- there
	u64 prev_state;
	char next_comm[16];
	u32 next_pid;
	u32 next_prio;

Gcc inserts a 4 bytes hole there for prev_state to be u64
aligned. And the events are exported to userspace with this
hole.

But in userspace, from perf sched, we fetch it using a
structure that has a new field in the beginning: u32 size. This
is because our trace is exported with its size as a field. But
now that we have this new field, the hole in the middle
disappears because it makes prev_state becoming well aligned.

And since we are using a pointer to the raw trace using this
struct, instead of reading prev_state, we are reading the hole.

We could fix it by keeping the size seperate from the struct
but actually there a lot of other potential problems: some
fields may be saved as long in a 64 bits system and later read
as long in a 32 bits system. Also this direct cast doesn't care
about the endianness differences between the host traced
machine and the machine in which we do the post processing.

So instead of using such dangerous direct casts, fetch the
values using the trace parsing API that already takes care of
all these problems.

bcd3279f46 perf tools: Allow the specification of all tracepoints at once
Currently, when one wants to activate every tracepoint
counters of a subsystem from perf record, the current sequence
is needed:

  perf record -e subsys:ev1 -e subsys:ev2 -e subsys:ev3

This may annoy the most patient of us.

Now we can just do:

  perf record -e subsys:*

ec156764d4 perf sched: Import schedbench.c
Import the schedbench.c tool that i wrote some time ago to
simulate scheduler behavior but never finished. It's a good
basis for perf sched nevertheless.

Most of its guts are not hooked up to the perf event loop
yet - that will be done in the patches to come.

0a02ad9331 perf: Add 'perf sched' tool
This turn-key tool allows scheduler measurements to be
conducted and the results be displayed numerically.

First baby step towards that goal: clone the new command off of
perf trace.

Fix a few other details along the way:

 - add (minimal) perf trace documentation

 - reorder a few places

 - list perf trace in the mainporcelain list as well
   as it's a very useful utility.

6b58e7f146 perf tools: Avoid unnecessary work in directory lookups
This patch improves some (common) inefficiencies in the
handling of directory lookups:

- not using the d_type information returned by the kernel

- constructing (absolute) paths for file operation even though
  directory-relative operations using the *at functions is
  possible

There are more places to fix but this is a start.

63d40deb2e perf stat: Use stddev_mean in stead of stddev
When we're computing the mean by sampling the distribution,
then the std dev of the mean is related to the std dev of the
sample set by:

  stddev_mean = std_dev / sqrt(N)

Which is exactly what we want.

This results in the error on the mean decreasing with
increasing number of samples.

Also fix the scaled == -1, aka not counted case.

506d4bc8d5 perf stat: Change noise calculation to use stddev
The current noise computation does:

 \Sum abs(n_i - avg(n)) * N^-1.5

Which is (afaik) not a regular noise function, and needs the
complete sample set available to post-process.

Change this to use a regular stddev computation which can be
done by keeping a two sums:

 stddev = sqrt( 1/N (\Sum n_i^2) - avg(n)^2 )

For which we only need to keep \Sum n_i and \Sum n_i^2.

Make it clear to GCC that we intend with those pointers, by passing
them through via an explicit (void *) cast.

We might want to add -fno-strict-aliasing as well, like the kernel
itself does.

9b8055a52c perf tools: Unify swapper tasks naming
In perf tools, we hardcode the pid 0 cmdline resolving to
"idle" because the init task is not included in the COMM
events.

But the idle tasks secondary cpus are resolved into their
"init" name through the COMM events.

We have then such strange result in perf report (ditto with
trace):

    19.66%       init    [kernel]          [k] acpi_idle_enter_c1
    17.32%       [idle]  [kernel]          [k] acpi_idle_enter_c1

It's then better to unify the swapper tasks into a single init
name.

3a2684ca58 perf tools: Resolve idle thread cmdline for perf trace
The cmd-trace tool used the cmdline file and resolved the idle

Now we have a centralized way to do that from perf using
register_idle_thread() API.

	:0-0     [000]     0.000000: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=name

been dumped as root can be read (annotate/report) by a user

Rationale is that root has plenty of ways to screw us (usually)
that do not require twisted schemes involving specially

6e086437f3 perf tools: Save partial non-overlapping map
The librarization of the thread helpers between annotate and

thread__insert_map() had its most uptodate version in perf
report which cared about partial map overlapping. In case of
overlap between two maps, perf annotate's version removes the
whole old map without considering if it partially or
absolutely overlaps the new map.

We exported the odd version, change it by using the perf
report version.

- using the -R option (every counters get PERF_SAMPLE_RAW)
- using the :record suffix in a trace event counter name

Currently we record the events info in a trace.info file from
perf record when the former method is used but we omit it with
the latter.

Check both situations.

8f28827a16 perf tools: Librarize trace_event() helper
Librarize trace_event() helper so that perf trace can use it
too. Also clean up the debug.h includes a bit.

It's not good to have it included in perf.h because it doesn't
make it flexible against other headers it may need (headers
that can also depend on perf.h and then create a recursive
header dependency).

0d31b82dd5 perf tools: Substract -Wformat-nonliteral from Wformat=2 in extra flags
The soon coming perf trace needs to use printf with dynamically
built formats.

But we are using -Wformat=2 which is a shortcut for the
following set: -Wformat -Wformat-security -Wformat-y2k
-Wformat-nonliteral

-Wformat-nonliteral warns when it can't check formats because
they are not builtin constant strings, but we want to feature
dynamic formats. What we want instead is Wformat=2 minus
-Wformat-nonliteral, which is what this patch does.

83a0944fa9 perf: Enable more compiler warnings
Related to a shadowed variable bug fix Valdis Kletnieks noticed
that perf does not get built with -Wshadow, which could have
helped us avoid the bug.

So enable -Wshadow and also enable the following warnings on
perf builds, in addition to the already enabled -Wall -Wextra
-std=gnu99 warnings:

 -Wcast-align
 -Wformat=2
 -Wshadow
 -Winit-self
 -Wpacked
 -Wredundant-decls
 -Wstack-protector
 -Wstrict-aliasing=3
 -Wswitch-default
 -Wswitch-enum
 -Wno-system-headers
 -Wundef
 -Wvolatile-register-var
 -Wwrite-strings
 -Wbad-function-cast
 -Wmissing-declarations
 -Wmissing-prototypes
 -Wnested-externs
 -Wold-style-definition
 -Wstrict-prototypes
 -Wdeclaration-after-statement

And change/fix the perf code to build cleanly under GCC 4.3.2.

The list of warnings enablement is rather arbitrary: it's based
on my (quick) reading of the GCC manpages and trying them on
perf.

I categorized the warnings based on individually enabling them
and looking whether they trigger something in the perf build.
If i liked those warnings (i.e. if they trigger for something
that arguably could be improved) i enabled the warning.

If the warnings seemed to come from language laywers spamming
the build with tons of nuisance warnings i generally kept them
off. Most of the sign conversion related warnings were in
this category. (A second patch enabling some of the sign
warnings might be welcome - sign bugs can be nasty.)

I also kept warnings that seem to make sense from their manpage
description and which produced no actual warnings on our code
base. These warnings might still be turned off if they end up
being a nuisance.

I also left out a few warnings that are not supported in older
compilers.

[ Note that these changes might break the build on older
  compilers i did not test, or on non-x86 architectures that
  produce different warnings, so more testing would be welcome. ]

Add a new flag field while opening a tracepoint perf counter:

	./perf record -e workqueue:workqueue_insertion:record
	./perf record -e workqueue:workqueue_insertion:r

In old binutils we can't access bfd_demangle(), use
cplus_demangle() just like oprofile.

2a8083f063 perf record: Fix .tid and .pid fill-in when synthesizing events
Noticed when trying to record events for a firefox thread. We
were synthesizing both .tid and .pid with the pid passed via
--pid.

Fix it by reading /proc/PID/status and getting the tgid
to use in .pid, .tid gets the specified "pid".

9f86669711 perf report: Add raw displaying of per-thread counters
If --pretty=raw is given to perf report -T, it now displays one
line per-thread per-counter with the raw event id added.

We get:

   18608  18609      cache-misses  28e   416744

c0a8865e32 perf tools: callchain: Fix bad rounding of minimum rate
Sometimes we get callchain branches that have a rate under the
limit given by the user.

Say you launched:

 perf record -f -g -a ./hackbench 10
 perf report -g fractal,10.0

And you got:

2.33%       hackbench  [kernel]                  [k] _spin_lock_irqsave
                |
                |--78.57%-- remove_wait_queue
                |          poll_freewait
                |          do_sys_poll
                |          sys_poll
                |          sysenter_dispatch
                |          0xf7ffa430
                |          0x1ffadea3c
                |
                |--7.14%-- __up_read
                |          up_read
                |          do_page_fault
                |          page_fault
                |          0xf7ffa430
                |          0xa0df710000000a
                ...

It is abnormal to get a 7.14% branch whereas we passed a 10%
filter.

The problem is that we round down the minimum threshold. This
happens mostly when we have very low number of events. If the
total amount of your branch is 4 and you have a subranch of 3
events, filtering to 90% will be computed like follows:

  limit = 4 * 0.9;

The result is about 3.6, but the cast to integer will round
down to 3. It means that our filter is actually of 75%

We must then explicitly round up the minimum threshold.

8d51327090 perf report: Fix and improve the displaying of per-thread event counters
Improve and fix the handling of per-thread counter stats
recorded via perf record -s. Previously we only displayed
it in debug printouts (-D) and even that output was hard
to disambiguate.

I moved everything to utils/values.[ch] so that we may reuse
it in perf stat.

We get something like this now:

 #  PID   TID  cache-misses  cache-references
   4658  4659        495581           3238779
   4658  4662        498246           3236823
   4658  4663        499531           3243162

Then it'll be easy to add --pretty=raw to display a single line per thread/event.

By the way, -S was also used for --symbol... So I used -T/--thread here.

perf report: Add -T/--threads to display per-thread counter values

 We get something like this now:
 #  PID   TID  cache-misses  cache-references
   4658  4659        495581           3238779
   4658  4662        498246           3236823
   4658  4663        499531           3243162

Per-thread arrays of counter values are managed in utils/values.[ch]
