This reverts commit de95ab53645a2f0015e0f68ee723f18dce2b8b51.
Markus Trippelsdorf reported that this commit broke 'perf top':
> I just see a gray screen with no text at all. Sometimes the
> following error messages are printed:
>
> *** Error in `perf': invalid fastbin entry (free): 0x00000000029b18c0
> ***
> *** Error in `perf': malloc(): memory corruption (fast): 0x0000000000ee0b10 ***While this code is fixable, the commit itself fails on several levels:
- it should have been a separate helper function
- why the heck does it do strchr() twice
- it casts a const char * over into char *
- sloppy style
- it's not even a regression fix!So lets revert it and re-try the patch in v3.13.

Fix perf probe to probe on some symbols which have some optimzation
suffixes, e.g. ".part", ".isra", and ".constprop".To fix this issue, instead of using the DIE name, perf probe uses the
symbol name found by dwfl_module_addrsym().This also involves a perf probe --vars operation update which now shows
the symbol name instead of the DIE name.Without this patch, putting a probe on an inlined function which was
compiled with a suffixed symbol will fail like this:$ perf probe -v getname_flags
probe-definition(0): getname_flags
symbol:getname_flags file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
0 arguments
Looking at the vmlinux_path (6 entries long)
Using /lib/modules/3.11.0+/build/vmlinux for symbols

Error: Failed to add events. (-1)Because the debuginfo knows only the original (non suffix) symbol name,
it uses the original symbol for probe address but the kernel (kallsyms)
knows only suffixed symbol. Then, the kernel rejects that original
symbol.This patch uses dwfl_module_addrsym() to get the correct (suffixed)
symbol from symtab when a probe point is found.Reported-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

Solve the problems around the broken definition of perf_event_mmap_page::
cap_usr_time and cap_usr_rdpmc fields which used to overlap, partially
fixed by:860f085b74e9 ("perf: Fix broken union in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'")
The problem with the fix (merged in v3.12-rc1 and not yet released
officially), noticed by Vince Weaver is that the new behavior is
not detectable by new user-space, and that due to the reuse of the
field names it's easy to mis-compile a binary if old headers are used
on a new kernel or new headers are used on an old kernel.To solve all that make this change explicit, detectable and self-contained,
by iterating the ABI the following way:- Always clear bit 0, and rename it to usrpage->cap_bit0, to at least not
confuse old user-space binaries. RDPMC will be marked as unavailable
to old binaries but that's within the ABI, this is a capability bit.- Rename bit 1 to ->cap_bit0_is_deprecated and always set it to 1, so new
libraries can reliably detect that bit 0 is deprecated and perma-zero
without having to check the kernel version.- Use bits 2, 3, 4 for the newly defined, correct functionality:
cap_user_rdpmc : 1, /* The RDPMC instruction can be used to read counts */
cap_user_time : 1, /* The time_* fields are used */
cap_user_time_zero : 1, /* The time_zero field is used */- Rename all the bitfield names in perf_event.h to be different from the
old names, to make sure it's not possible to mis-compile it
accidentally with old assumptions.The 'size' field can then be used in the future to add new fields and it
will act as a natural ABI version indicator as well.Also adjust tools/perf/ userspace for the new definitions, noticed by
Adrian Hunter.Reported-by: Vince Weaver

This patch adds support for the new PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 record type
exposed by the kernel. This is an extended PERF_RECORD_MMAP record.It adds for each file-backed mapping the device major, minor number and
the inode number and generation.This triplet uniquely identifies the source of a file-backed mapping. It
can be used to detect identical virtual mappings between processes, for
instance.The patch will prefer MMAP2 over MMAP.

for UARTs, support and some EEH fixes.- Some mpc51xx clock API cleanups in preparation for a clock API
overhaul- A pile of cleanups of our old math emulation code, including better
support for using it to emulate optional FP instructions on
embedded chips that otherwise have a HW FPU.- Some infrastructure in selftest, for powerpc now, but could be

Currently when processing events in the __perf_session__process_events
function we update a progress bar based on the file_size. During the
same processing we update the progress bar from within
flush_sample_queue which is based on number of samples count.Having 2 different based updates is causing the progress bar to jump
heavily back and forth giving not much usefull info.Fixing this by keeping only __perf_session__process_events based
progress bar update. And turning on flush_sample_queue progress bar
update only for final flushing.This reduces the number of time the progress bar update function is
called and it significantly reduces the loading time for TUI, where the
progress bar update takes quite a lot of time.Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa

We had a hardcoded buffer for formatting histogram entries, truncating
long symbol names (C++ anyone?).Fix it by using hists__sort_list_width() before formatting the first
histogram entry to calculate the max lenght needed by traversing the
overheads and columns lists (sort order).Reported-by: Stephane Eranian

The perf_evlist__event2evsel() is changed to handle non-sample events
(such as mmap events) that have no id sample appended i.e. when
sample_id_all is not set.Note that such events have a fixed format, so that the selected event
(evsel) they are associated with is immaterial.Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter

Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
"As a first remark I'd like to point out that the obsolete '-f'
(--force) option, which has not done anything for several releases,
has been removed from 'perf record' and related utilities. Everyone
please update muscle memory accordingly! :-)Main changes on the perf kernel side:
- Performance optimizations:
. for trace events, by Steve Rostedt.
. for time values, by Peter Zijlstra- New hardware support:
. for Intel Silvermont (22nm Atom) CPUs, by Zheng Yan
. for Intel SNB-EP uncore PMUs, by Zheng Yan- Enhanced hardware support:
. for Intel uncore PMUs: add filter support for QPI boxes, by Zheng Yan- Core perf events code enhancements and fixes:
. for full-nohz feature handling, by Frederic Weisbecker
. for group events, by Jiri Olsa
. for call chains, by Frederic Weisbecker
. for event stream parsing, by Adrian Hunter- New ABI details:
. Add attr->mmap2 attribute, by Stephane Eranian
. Add PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID ioctl to return event ID, by Jiri Olsa
. Export u64 time_zero on the mmap header page to allow TSC
calculation, by Adrian Hunter
. Add dummy software event, by Adrian Hunter.
. Add a new PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER to make samples always
parseable, by Adrian Hunter.
. Make Power7 events available via sysfs, by Runzhen Wang.- Code cleanups and refactorings:
. for nohz-full, by Frederic Weisbecker
. for group events, by Jiri Olsa- Documentation updates:
. for perf_event_type, by Peter ZijlstraMain changes on the perf tooling side (some of these tooling changes
utilize the above kernel side changes):- Lots of 'perf trace' enhancements:
. Make 'perf trace' command line arguments consistent with
'perf record', by David Ahern.. Allow specifying syscalls a la strace, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Add --verbose and -o/--output options, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Support ! in -e expressions, to filter a list of syscalls,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.. Arg formatting improvements to allow masking arguments in
syscalls such as futex and open, where the some arguments are
ignored and thus should not be printed depending on other args,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.. Beautify futex open, openat, open_by_handle_at, lseek and futex
syscalls, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.. Add option to analyze events in a file versus live, so that
one can do:[root@zoo ~]# perf record -a -e raw_syscalls:* sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 25.150 MB perf.data (~1098836 samples) ]

[root@zoo ~]#By David Ahern.
. Honor target pid / tid options when analyzing a file, by David Ahern.
. Introduce better formatting of syscall arguments, including so
far beautifiers for mmap, madvise, syscall return values,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.. Handle HUGEPAGE defines in the mmap beautifier, by David Ahern.
- 'perf report/top' enhancements:
. Do annotation using /proc/kcore and /proc/kallsyms when
available, removing the forced need for a vmlinux file kernel
assembly annotation. This also improves this use case because
vmlinux has just the initial kernel image, not what is actually
in use after various code patchings by things like alternatives.
By Adrian Hunter.. Add --ignore-callees=<regex> option to collapse undesired parts
of call graphs, by Greg Price.. Simplify symbol filtering by doing it at machine class level,
by Adrian Hunter.. Add support for callchains in the gtk UI, by Namhyung Kim.
. Add --objdump option to 'perf top', by Sukadev Bhattiprolu.
- 'perf kvm' enhancements:
. Add option to print only events that exceed a specified time
duration, by David Ahern.. Improve stack trace printing, by David Ahern.
. Update documentation of the live command, by David Ahern
. Add perf kvm stat live mode that combines aspects of 'perf kvm
stat' record and report, by David Ahern.. Add option to analyze specific VM in perf kvm stat report, by
David Ahern.. Do not require /lib/modules/* on a guest, by Jason Wessel.
- 'perf script' enhancements:
. Fix symbol offset computation for some dsos, by David Ahern.
. Fix named threads support, by David Ahern.
. Don't install scripting files files when perl/python support
is disabled, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.- 'perf test' enhancements:

annotation feature. By Adrian Hunter.. Add sample parsing test, by Adrian Hunter.
. Add test for reading object code, by Adrian Hunter.
. Add attr record group sampling test, by Jiri Olsa.
. Misc testing infrastructure improvements and other details,
by Jiri Olsa.- 'perf list' enhancements:
. Skip unsupported hardware events, by Namhyung Kim.
. List pmu events, by Andi Kleen.
- 'perf diff' enhancements:
. Add support for more than two files comparison, by Jiri Olsa.
- 'perf sched' enhancements:
. Various improvements, including removing reliance on some
scheduler tracepoints that provide the same information as the
PERF_RECORD_{FORK,EXIT} events. By David Ahern.. Remove odd build stall by moving a large struct initialization
from a local variable to a global one, by Namhyung Kim.- 'perf stat' enhancements:
. Add --initial-delay option to skip measuring for a defined
startup phase, by Andi Kleen.- Generic perf tooling infrastructure/plumbing changes:
. Tidy up sample parsing validation, by Adrian Hunter.
. Fix up jobserver setup in libtraceevent Makefile.
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.. Debug improvements, by Adrian Hunter.
. Fix correlation of samples coming after PERF_RECORD_EXIT event,
by David Ahern.. Improve robustness of the topology parsing code,
by Stephane Eranian.. Add group leader sampling, that allows just one event in a group
to sample while the other events have just its values read,
by Jiri Olsa.. Add support for a new modifier "D", which requests that the
event, or group of events, be pinned to the PMU.
By Michael Ellerman.. Support callchain sorting based on addresses, by Andi Kleen
. Prep work for multi perf data file storage, by Jiri Olsa.
. libtraceevent cleanups, by Namhyung Kim.
