perf session: Make read_build_id routines look at the host_machine too

The changes made to support host and guest machines in a session, that
started when the 'perf kvm' tool was introduced ended up introducing a
bug where the host_machine was not having its DSOs traversed for
build-id processing.

Fix it by moving some methods to the right classes and considering the
host_machine when processing build-ids.

perf hist: Clarify events_stats fields usage

The events_stats.total field is too generic, rename it to .total_period,
and also add a comment explaining that it is the sum of all the .period
fields in samples, that is needed because we use auto-freq to avoid
sampling artifacts.

Ditto for events_stats.lost, that is the sum of all lost_event.lost
fields, i.e. the number of events the kernel dropped.

Looking at the users, builtin-sched.c can make use of these fields and
stop doing it again.

perf hist: Introduce hists class and move lots of methods to it

In cbbc79a we introduced support for multiple events by introducing a
new "event_stat_id" struct and then made several perf_session methods
receive a point to it instead of a pointer to perf_session, and kept the
event_stats and hists rb_tree in perf_session.

While working on the new newt based browser, I realised that it would be
better to introduce a new class, "hists" (short for "histograms"),
renaming the "event_stat_id" struct and the perf_session methods that
were really "hists" methods, as they manipulate only struct hists
members, not touching anything in the other perf_session members.

Other optimizations, such as calculating the maximum lenght of a symbol
name present in an hists instance will be possible as we add them,
avoiding a re-traversal just for finding that information.

The rationale for the name "hists" to replace "event_stat_id" is that we
may have multiple sets of hists for the same event_stat id, as, for
instance, the 'perf diff' tool has, so event stat id is not what
characterizes what this struct and the functions that manipulate it do.

This also fixes a problem found when we try to process old perf.data

thus don't create the kernel maps, do it in event__preprocess_sample if
it wasn't already.

Some events, such as the PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND event consist of
only an event header and no data. In this case, a 0-length payload
will be read, and the 0 return value will be wrongly interpreted as an
'unexpected end of event stream'.

This patch allows for proper handling of data-less events by skipping
0-length reads.

perf: Provide a new deterministic events reordering algorithm

The current events reordering algorithm is based on a heuristic that
gets broken once we deal with a very fast flow of events.

Indeed the time period based flushing is not suitable anymore
in the following case, assuming we have a flush period of two
seconds.

CPU 0 | CPU 1
|
cnt1 timestamps | cnt1 timestamps
|
0 | 0
1 | 1
2 | 2
3 | 3
[...] | [...]
4 seconds later

If we spend too much time to read the buffers (case of a lot of
events to record in each buffers or when we have a lot of CPU buffers
to read), in the next pass the CPU 0 buffer could contain a slice
of several seconds of events. We'll read them all and notice we've
reached the period to flush. In the above example we flush the first
half of the CPU 0 buffer, then we read the CPU 1 buffer where we
have events that were on the flush slice and then the reordering
fails.

It's simple to reproduce with:

perf lock record perf bench sched messaging

To solve this, we use a new solution that doesn't rely on an
heuristical time slice period anymore but on a deterministic basis
based on how perf record does its job.

perf record saves the buffers through passes. A pass is a tour
on every buffers from every CPUs. This is made in order: for
each CPU we read the buffers of every counters. So the more
buffers we visit, the later will be the timstamps of their events.

When perf record finishes a pass it records a
PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND pseudo event.
We record the max timestamp t found in the pass n. Assuming these
timestamps are monotonic across cpus, we know that if a buffer
still has events with timestamps below t, they will be all available
and then read in the pass n + 1.
Hence when we start to read the pass n + 2, we can safely flush every
events with timestamps below t.

============ PASS n =================
CPU 0 | CPU 1
|
cnt1 timestamps | cnt2 timestamps
1 | 2
2 | 3
- | 4 <--- max recorded

============ PASS n + 1 ==============
CPU 0 | CPU 1
|
cnt1 timestamps | cnt2 timestamps
3 | 5
4 | 6
5 | 7 <---- max recorded

Flush every events below timestamp 4

============ PASS n + 2 ==============
CPU 0 | CPU 1
|
cnt1 timestamps | cnt2 timestamps
6 | 8
7 | 9
- | 10

Flush every events below timestamp 7
etc...

It also works on perf.data versions that don't have
PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND pseudo events. The difference is that
the events will be only flushed in the end of the perf.data
processing. It will then consume more memory and scale less with
large perf.data files.

perf: add perf-inject builtin

Currently, perf 'live mode' writes build-ids at the end of the
session, which isn't actually useful for processing live mode events.

What would be better would be to have the build-ids sent before any of
the samples that reference them, which can be done by processing the
event stream and retrieving the build-ids on the first hit. Doing
that in perf-record itself, however, is off-limits.

This patch introduces perf-inject, which does the same job while
leaving perf-record untouched. Normal mode perf still records the
build-ids at the end of the session as it should, but for live mode,
perf-inject can be injected in between the record and report steps
e.g.:

perf record -o - ./hackbench 10 | perf inject -v -b | perf report -v -i -

perf-inject reads a perf-record event stream and repipes it to stdout.
At any point the processing code can inject other events into the
event stream - in this case build-ids (-b option) are read and
injected as needed into the event stream.

Build-ids are just the first user of perf-inject - potentially
anything that needs userspace processing to augment the trace stream
with additional information could make use of this facility.

perf: Generalize perf lock's sample event reordering to the session layer

The sample events recorded by perf record are not time ordered
because we have one buffer per cpu for each event (even demultiplexed
per task/per cpu for task bound events). But when we read trace events
we want them to be ordered by time because many state machines are
involved.

There are currently two ways perf tools deal with that:

- use -M to multiplex every buffers (perf sched, perf kmem)
But this creates a lot of contention in SMP machines on
record time.

- use a post-processing time reordering (perf timechart, perf lock)
The reordering used by timechart is simple but doesn't scale well
with huge flow of events, in terms of performance and memory use
(unusable with perf lock for example).
Perf lock has its own samples reordering that flushes its memory
use in a regular basis and that uses a sorting based on the
previous event queued (a new event to be queued is close to the
previous one most of the time).

This patch proposes to export perf lock's samples reordering facility
to the session layer that reads the events. So if a tool wants to
get ordered sample events, it needs to set its
struct perf_event_ops::ordered_samples to true and that's it.

This prepares tracing based perf tools to get rid of the need to
use buffers multiplexing (-M) or to implement their own
reordering.

Also lower the flush period to 2 as it's sufficient already.

- adds pipe-specific versions of the header read/write code

- adds pipe-specific version of the event processing code

- adds a range of event types to be used for header or other
pseudo events, above the range used by the kernel

- checks the return value of event handlers, which they can use
to skip over large events during event processing rather than actually
reading them into event objects.

- unifies the multiple do_read() functions and updates its
users.

Note that none of these changes affect the existing perf data
file format or processing - this code only comes into play if
perf output is sent to stdout (or is read from stdin).

Fix it by calling perf_session__create_kernel_maps() in __cmd_kmem().

perf report: Add progress bars

For when we are processing the events and inserting the entries in the
browser.

Experimentation here: naming "ui_something" we may be treading into
creating a TUI/GUI set of routines that can then be implemented in terms
of multiple backends.

Also the time it takes for adding things to the "browser" takes, visually
(I guess I should do some profiling here ;-) ), more time than for
processing the events...

That means we probably need to create a custom hist_entry browser, so
that we reuse the structures we have in place instead of duplicating
them in newt.

But progress was made and at least we can see something while long files
are being loaded, that must be one of UI 101 bullet points :-)

perf symbols: Move map related routines to map.c

Thru series of refactorings functions were being renamed but not
moved to map.c to reduce patch noise, now lets have them in the
same place so that use of the symbol system by tools can be
constrained to building and linking fewer source files:
symbol.c, map.c and rbtree.c.
