perf machine thread: Remove exited threads by default

[ Upstream commit 9ffa6c7512ca7aaeb30e596e2c247cb1fae7123a ]

'struct thread' values hold onto references to mmaps, DSOs, etc. When a
thread exits it is necessary to clean all of this memory up by removing
the thread from the machine's threads. Some tools require this doesn't
happen, such as auxtrace events, 'perf report' if offcpu events exist or
if a task list is being generated, so add a 'struct symbol_conf' member
to make the behavior optional. When an exited thread is left in the
machine's threads, mark it as exited.

This change relates to commit 40826c45eb0b8856 ("perf thread: Remove
notion of dead threads") . Dead threads were removed as they had a
reference count of 0 and were difficult to reason about with the
reference count checker. Here a thread is removed from threads when it
exits, unless via symbol_conf the exited thread isn't remove and is
marked as exited. Reference counting behaves as it normally does.

Commit 5b7ba82a75915e73 ("perf symbols: Load kernel maps before using")
changed it so that loading a kernel DSO would cause the symbols for the
DSO to be eagerly loaded.

For 'perf record' this is overhead as the symbols won't be used. Add a
field to 'struct symbol_conf' to control the behavior and disable it for
'perf record' and 'perf inject'.

perf machine thread: Remove exited threads by default

[ Upstream commit 9ffa6c7512ca7aaeb30e596e2c247cb1fae7123a ]

'struct thread' values hold onto references to mmaps, DSOs, etc. When a
thread exits it is necessary to clean all of this memory up by removing
the thread from the machine's threads. Some tools require this doesn't
happen, such as auxtrace events, 'perf report' if offcpu events exist or
if a task list is being generated, so add a 'struct symbol_conf' member
to make the behavior optional. When an exited thread is left in the
machine's threads, mark it as exited.

This change relates to commit 40826c45eb0b8856 ("perf thread: Remove
notion of dead threads") . Dead threads were removed as they had a
reference count of 0 and were difficult to reason about with the
reference count checker. Here a thread is removed from threads when it
exits, unless via symbol_conf the exited thread isn't remove and is
marked as exited. Reference counting behaves as it normally does.

Commit 5b7ba82a75915e73 ("perf symbols: Load kernel maps before using")
changed it so that loading a kernel DSO would cause the symbols for the
DSO to be eagerly loaded.

For 'perf record' this is overhead as the symbols won't be used. Add a
field to 'struct symbol_conf' to control the behavior and disable it for
'perf record' and 'perf inject'.

Allow addr2line to be set either on the command line or via the
perfconfig file. This doesn't currently work with llvm-addr2line as
the addr2line code emits two things:
1) the address to decode,
2) a bogus ',' value.
The expectation is the bogus value will generate:
??
??:0
that terminates the addr2line reading. However, the output from
llvm-addr2line is a single line with just the input ',' locking up the
addr2line reading that is expecting a second line.

perf tools: Add guest_code support

A common case for KVM test programs is that the test program acts as the
hypervisor, creating, running and destroying the virtual machine, and
providing the guest object code from its own object code. In this case,
the VM is not running an OS, but only the functions loaded into it by the
hypervisor test program, and conveniently, loaded at the same virtual
addresses.

Normally to resolve addresses, MMAP events are needed to map addresses
back to the object code and debug symbols for that object code.

Currently, there is no way to get such mapping information from guests
but, in the scenario described above, the guest has the same mappings
as the hypervisor, so support for that scenario can be achieved.

To support that, copy the host thread's maps to the guest thread's maps.
Note, we do not discover the guest until we encounter a guest event,
which works well because it is not until then that we know that the host
thread's maps have been set up.

Typically the main function for the guest object code is called
"guest_code", hence the name chosen for this feature. Note, that is just a
convention, the function could be named anything, and the tools do not
care.

This is primarily aimed at supporting Intel PT, or similar, where trace
data can be recorded for a guest. Refer to the final patch in this series
"perf intel-pt: Add guest_code support" for an example.

perf script: Support filtering by hex address

'perf script' supports '-S' or '--symbol' options to only list the
records for these symbols. A symbol is typically a name or hex address.
If it's hex address, it is the start address of one symbol.

While it would be useful if we can filter trace records by any hex
address (not only the start address of symbol). So now we support
filtering trace records by more conditions, such as:

- symbol name
- start address of symbol
- any hexadecimal address
- address range

The comparison order is defined as:

1. symbol name comparison
2. symbol start address comparison.
3. any hexadecimal address comparison.
4. address range comparison.

The idea is if we can get a valid address from -S list, we add the
address to addr_list for address comparison otherwise we still leave
it to sym_list for symbol comparison.

perf report: Allow specifying event to be used as sort key in --group output

When performing "perf report --group", it shows the event group
information together. By default, the output is sorted by the first
event in group.

It would be nice for user to select any event for sorting. This patch
introduces a new option "--group-sort-idx" to sort the output by the
event at the index n in event group.

For example,

Before:

# perf report --group --stdio

0.00% 0.00% 0.00% 0.02% mgen [kernel.kallsyms] [k] scheduler_tick

Now the output is sorted by the fourth event in group.

v7:
---
Rebase to latest perf/core, no other change.

v4:
---
1. Update Documentation/perf-report.txt to mention
'--group-sort-idx' support multiple groups with different
amount of events and it should be used on grouped events.

2. Update __hpp__group_sort_idx(), just return when the
idx is out of limit.

3. Return failure on symbol_conf.group_sort_idx && !session->evlist->nr_groups.
So now we don't need to use together with --group.

v3:
---
Refine the code in __hpp__group_sort_idx().

Before:
for (i = 1; i < nr_members; i++) {
if (i == idx) {
ret = field_cmp(fields_a[i], fields_b[i]);
if (ret)
goto out;
}
}

After:
if (idx >= 1 && idx < nr_members) {
ret = field_cmp(fields_a[idx], fields_b[idx]);
if (ret)
goto out;
}

perf report: Sort by sampled cycles percent per block for stdio

It would be useful to support sorting for all blocks by the sampled
cycles percent per block. This is useful to concentrate on the globally
hottest blocks.

This patch implements a new option "--total-cycles" which sorts all
blocks by 'Sampled Cycles%'. The 'Sampled Cycles%' is the percent:

percent = block sampled cycles aggregation / total sampled cycles

Note that, this patch only supports "--stdio" mode.

For example,

# perf record -b ./div
# perf report --total-cycles --stdio
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.

This should provide material for hours of endless joy, both from looking
for suspicious things in the implementation of this patch, such as the
top one:

-----------------------------------------------------------

v7:
---
Use use_browser in report__browse_block_hists for supporting
stdio and potential tui mode.

v6:
---
Create report__browse_block_hists in block-info.c (codes are
moved from builtin-report.c). It's called from
perf_evlist__tty_browse_hists.

v5:
---
1. Move all block functions to block-info.c

2. Move the code of setting ms in block hist_entry to
other patch.

v4:
---
1. Use new option '--total-cycles' to replace
'-s total_cycles' in v3.

2. Move block info collection out of block info
printing.

v3:
---
1. Use common function block_info__process_sym to
process the blocks per symbol.

2. Remove the nasty hack for skipping calculation
of column length

3. Some minor cleanup

"[Program Block Range]" indicates the range of program basic block
(start -> end). If we can find the source line it prints the source line
otherwise it prints the symbol+offset instead.

v4:
---
Use source lines or symbol+offset to indicate the basic block. It should
be easier to understand.

v3:
---
Cast 'struct hist_entry' to 'struct block_hist' in hist_entry__block_fprintf.
Use symbol_conf.report_block to check if executing hist_entry__block_fprintf.

v2:
---
Keep standard perf diff format and display the 'Baseline' and
'Shared Object'.

The output is sorted by "Baseline" and the basic blocks in the same
function are sorted by cycles diff.

perf report: Implement browsing of individual samples

Now 'perf report' can show whole time periods with 'perf script', but
the user still has to find individual samples of interest manually.

It would be expensive and complicated to search for the right samples in
the whole perf file. Typically users only need to look at a small number
of samples for useful analysis.

Also the full scripts tend to show samples of all CPUs and all threads
mixed up, which can be very confusing on larger systems.

Add a new --samples option to save a small random number of samples per
hist entry.

Use a reservoir sample technique to select a representatve number of
samples.

Then allow browsing the samples using 'perf script' as part of the hist
entry context menu. This automatically adds the right filters, so only
the thread or cpu of the sample is displayed. Then we use less' search
functionality to directly jump the to the time stamp of the selected
sample.

It uses different menus for assembler and source display. Assembler
needs xed installed and source needs debuginfo.

Currently it only supports as many samples as fit on the screen due to
some limitations in the slang ui code.
