Move the subcommand-related files from perf to a new library named libsubcmd.a.

When PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT was added to the kernel we should've added it to tools/perf, where it is used just to list events. This ended up causing a segfault in commands like "perf list stall". Fix it by adding that new software counter. A patch to robustify perf to not segfault when the next counter gets added in the kernel will follow this one.

When building perf binaries outside the source tree with 'make O=<dir>', the auto-detected features get re-tested for every build, which is unnecessary and inconsistent with the behavior seen when building directly in the source tree. Another issue is that 'make O=<dir> clean' doesn't remove the feature files from the object tree. Fix these problems by looking for the binaries in the $(OUTPUT) directory.

Post processing at 'perf record' takes a long time on big machines. What it does is to find the build-id of binaries found in the event stream, so that it can make sure, at 'report' time, that the symtabs (be it ELF, kallsyms, etc) being used to resolve symbols are the ones matching the binaries found at 'record' time. Sometimes we just want to skip this processing of events at the end of the session to get quicker results, making sure the binaries haven't changed from 'record' to 'report' time. Add a new config option to control this behavior. The record.build-id config variable can have one of the following values: - cache: post-process data and save/update the binaries into the build-id cache (in ~/.debug). This is the default. - no-cache: post-process the data but not update the build-id cache. Same effect as using the -N option. - skip: skip post-processing and do not update the cache. Same effect as using the -B option.

Make perf-record command support --vmlinux option if BPF_PROLOGUE is on. 'perf record' needs vmlinux as the source of DWARF info to generate prologue for BPF programs, so path of vmlinux should be specified. Short name 'k' has been taken by 'clockid'. This patch skips the short option name and uses '--vmlinux' for vmlinux path. Documentation is also updated. Test result: In a production (or broken) environment: (by: # rm -rf ~/.debug/ # mv /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/vmlinux /tmp/ ) # ./perf record -e ./test_bpf_base.c ls Failed to find the path for kernel: No such file or directory event syntax error: './test_bpf_base.c' \___ You need to check probing points in BPF file ... # ./perf record --vmlinux /tmp/vmlinux -e ./test_bpf_base.c ls ...

This patch keeps options of perf builtins same in all conditions. If one option is disabled because of compiling options, users should be notified. Masami suggested another implementation in [1] that, by adding a OPTION_NEXT_DEPENDS option before those options in the 'struct option' array, options parser knows an option is disabled. However, in some cases this array is reordered (options__order()). In addition, in parse-option.c that array is const, so we can't simply merge information in decorator option into the affacted option. This patch chooses a simpler implementation that, introducing a set_option_nobuild() function and two option parsing flags. Builtins with such options should call set_option_nobuild() before option parsing. The complexity of this patch is because we want some of options can be skipped safely. In this case their arguments should also be consumed. Options in 'perf record' and 'perf probe' are fixed in this patch.

Currently if kptr_restrict is enabled, all hist tests failed with segfaults. This is because machine__create_kernel_maps() in setup_fake_machine() failed in that situation, and it called machine__delete() on the error path.

We should always return from thread__new(), the constructor, with the object with a reference count of one, so that: struct thread *thread = thread__new(); thread__put(thread); Will call thread__delete(). If any reference is made to that 'thread' variable, it better use thread__get(thread) to hold a reference. We were returning with thread->refcnt set to zero, fix it and some cases where thread__delete() was being called, which were not a problem because just one reference was being used, now that we set it to 1, use thread__put() instead.

I.e. don't exit with the signal number, instead set the signal handler to the default one and then raise it again. Noticed while trying to dump the stack at segfaults in the 'perf test' forked process used to run each test, that inspects signal info at each test.

Jan Stancek reported that I wrecked things for him by fixing things for Vladimir :/ His report was due to an UNINTERRUPTIBLE wait getting -EINTR, which should not be possible, however my previous patch made this possible by unconditionally checking signal_pending(). We cannot use current->state as was done previously, because the instruction after the store to that variable it can be changed. We must instead pass the initial state along and use that.
