To support callchain accumulation, @entry should be recognized if it's
accumulated or not when add_hist_entry() called. The period of an
accumulated entry should be added to ->stat_acc but not ->stat. Add
@sample_self arg for that.Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim

Currently, accounting each sample is done in multiple places - once
when adding them to the input tree, other when adding them to the
output tree. It's not only confusing but also can cause a subtle
problem since concurrent processing like in perf top might see the
updated stats before adding entries into the output tree - like seeing
more (blank) lines at the end and/or slight inaccurate percentage.To fix this, only account the entries when it's moved into the output
tree so that they cannot be seen prematurely. There're some
exceptional cases here and there - they should be addressed separately
with comments.Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim

For the common evsel list traversal, so that it becomes more compact.
Use the opportunity to start ditching the 'perf_' from 'perf_evlist__',
as discussed, as the whole conversion touches a lot of places, lets do

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.

v4: Readd sort keys to manpage

support "-i" option to chose a specific perf data, and all of them
create a local "input_name" to save the file name for that perf data.Since most of these commands need it, we can add a global variable for
it, also it can some other benefits:1. When calling script browser inside hists/annotation browser, it needs
to know the perf data file name to run that script.2. For further feature like runtime switching to another perf data file,

When we were processing a PERF_RECORD_EXIT event we first used
machine__findnew_thread for both the thread exiting and for its parent,
only to use just the thread struct associated with the one exiting, and
to just delete it.If it existed, i.e. not created at this very moment in
machine__findnew_thread, it will be moved to the machine->dead_threads
linked list, because we may have hist_entries pointing to it, but if it
was created just do be deleted, it will just sit there with no
references at all.Use the new machine__find_thread() method so that if it is not there, we
don't create it.As a bonus the parent thread will also not be created at this point.

perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking
unused variables. The variable __used is defined to
__attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to
__attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is
also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning:
'__used__' attribute ignored__unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition.
If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to
conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name
in its headers.The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the
kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one
definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the
same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android.
This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with
__maybe_unused.Signed-off-by: Irina Tirdea

The default input file for perf report is not handled the same way as
perf record does it for its output file. This leads to unexpected
behavior of perf report, etc. E.g.:# perf record -a -e cpu-cycles sleep 2 | perf report | cat
failed to open perf.data: No such file or directory (try 'perf record' first)While perf record writes to a fifo, perf report expects perf.data to be
read. This patch changes this to accept fifos as input file.Applies to the following commands:

perf buildid-list
perf evlist
perf kmem
perf lock
perf report

Currently the meaning of -C varies by perf command: for perf-top,
perf-stat, perf-record it means cpu list. For perf-report it means comm
list. Then perf-annotate, perf-report and perf-script use -c for cpu
list.Fix annotate, report and script to use -C for cpu list to be consistent
with top, stat and record. This means report needs to use -c for comm
list which does introduce a backward compatibility change.v1 -> v2
