vmlinux meets the criteria for symbol adjustment, which breaks vmlinux generated symbols.
Fix this by exempting vmlinux. This is a bit fragile in that someone could change the
kernel dso's name, but currently that name is also hardwired.

for some reason, this structure gets compiled as 36 bytes in some files
(the ones that alloacte it) but 40 bytes in others (the ones that use it).
The cause is an off_t type that gets a different size in different
compilation units for some yet-to-be-explained reason.
But the effect is disasterous; the size/offset members of the struct
are at different offsets, and result in mostly complete garbage.
The parser in perf is so robust that this all gets hidden, and after
skipping an certain amount of samples, it recovers.... so this bug
is not normally noticed.
.... except when you want every sample to be exact.
Fix this by just using an explicitly sized type.

perf stat and perf record currently look for all options on the command
line. This can lead to some confusion:
# perf stat ls -l
Error: unknown switch `l'
While we can work around this by adding '--' before the command, the git
option parsing code can stop at the first non option:
# perf stat ls -l

Anton noted that for inherited counters the counter-id as provided by
PERF_SAMPLE_ID isn't mappable to the id found through PERF_RECORD_ID
because each inherited counter gets its own id.
His suggestion was to always return the parent counter id, since that
is the primary counter id as exposed. However, these inherited
counters have a unique identifier so that events like
PERF_EVENT_PERIOD and PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE can be specific about which
counter gets modified, which is important when trying to normalize the
sample streams.
This patch removes PERF_EVENT_PERIOD in favour of PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD,
which is more useful anyway, since changing periods became a lot more
common than initially thought -- rendering PERF_EVENT_PERIOD the less
useful solution (also, PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD reports the more accurate
value, since it reports the value used to trigger the overflow,
whereas PERF_EVENT_PERIOD simply reports the requested period changed,
which might only take effect on the next cycle).
This still leaves us PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE to consider, but since that
_should_ be a rare occurrence, and linking it to a primary id is the
most useful bit to diagnose the problem, we introduce a
PERF_SAMPLE_STREAM_ID, for those few cases where the full
reconstruction is important.

We now keep the nr_entries so that we can check if we have just
one entry, will be used in 'perf report' to improve the output

The current callchain displays the overhead rates as absolute:
relative to the total overhead.
This patch provides relative overhead percentage, in which each
branch of the callchain tree is a independant instrumentated object.
This provides a 'fractal' view of the call-chain profile: each
sub-graph looks like a profile in itself - relative to its parent.
You can produce such output by using the "fractal" mode
that you can abbreviate via f, fr, fra, frac, etc...

The cumul hits are the number of hits of every childs of a node
plus the hits of the current nodes, required for percentage
computing of a branch.
Theses numbers are calculated during the sorting of the branches of
the callchain tree using a depth first postfix traversal, so that
cumulative hits are propagated in the right order.
But if we plan to implement percentages relative to the parent and not
absolute percentages (relative to the whole overhead), we need to know
the cumulative hits of the parent before computing the children
because the relative minimum acceptable number of entries (ie: minimum
rate against the cumulative hits from the parent) is the basis to
filter the children against a given rate.
Then we need to handle the cumul hits on the fly to prepare the
implementation of relative overhead rates.

The default callchain parameters are set to use the flat mode and never
filter any overhead threshold of backtrace.
But flat mode is boring compared to graph mode.
Also the number of callchains may be very high if none is
filtered.
Let's change this to set the graph view and a minimum overhead of 0.5%
as default parameters.

If the user doesn't provide options to tune his callchain output
(ie: if he uses -c without arguments) then the default value passed
in the OPT_CALLBACK_DEFAULT() macro is used.
But it's parsed later by strtok() which will replace comma separators
to a zero. This may segfault as we are using a read-only string.
Use a modifiable one instead, and also fix the "100%" default
minimum threshold value by turning it into a 0 (output every callchains)
as it was intended in the origin.

Among perf annotate, perf report and perf top, we can find the
common colored printing of percents according to the following
rules:
High overhead = > 5%, colored in red
Mid overhead = > 0.5%, colored in green
Low overhead = < 0.5%, default color
Factorize these multiple checks in a single function named
percent_color_fprintf() and also provide a get_percent_color()
for sites which print percentages and other things at the same

Currently, the printing of callchains is done in a single
vertical level, this is the "flat" mode:
8.25% [k] copy_user_generic_string
4.19%
copy_user_generic_string
generic_file_aio_read
do_sync_read
vfs_read
sys_pread64
system_call_fastpath
pread64
This patch introduces a new "graph" mode which provides a
hierarchical output of factorized paths recursively sorted:
8.25% [k] copy_user_generic_string
|
|--4.31%-- generic_file_aio_read
| do_sync_read
| vfs_read
| |
| |--4.19%-- sys_pread64
| | system_call_fastpath
| | pread64
| |
| --0.12%-- sys_read
| system_call_fastpath
| __read
|
|--3.24%-- generic_file_buffered_write
| __generic_file_aio_write_nolock
| generic_file_aio_write
| do_sync_write
| reiserfs_file_write
| vfs_write
| |
| |--3.14%-- sys_pwrite64
| | system_call_fastpath
| | __pwrite64
| |
| --0.10%-- sys_write
[...]
The command line has then changed.
By providing the -c option, the callchain will output in the
flat mode by default.
But you can override it:
perf report -c graph
or
perf report -c flat
You can also pass the abreviated mode:
perf report -c g
or
perf report -c gra
will both make use of the graph mode.

There is no predefined macro to create an option that can have
a custom value or a default one if none is given.
This patch provides a new helper OPT_CALLBACK_DEFAULT() which
defines such kind of option.
For example, considering an option -c, we want to get the
default value in the following cases:
perf command -c -d
perf command -d -c
And the foo value when it's given:
perf command -c foo -d
perf command -d -c foo
That's also why PARSE_OPT_LASTARG_DEFAULT is extended here to
support default values whatever the position of the option, not
only in the end.
Should it now be renamed to PARSE_OPT_ARG_DEFAULT ?

Iterating through children of a node in the callchain tree
shows something that may be quite confusing at a first glance.
The head is the children field of the parent and the list nodes
are in the brothers field of the children.
This is because the childs are linked to the parent as a list
of "brothers" using the "children" list of the parent as a
head:
---------------
| Parent (head) |-------------------------------------
--------------- |
| |
children |
| |
----------- ----------- |
| 1st child |---brother---| 2nd child |---brother-----
----------- -----------
This makes the following strange pattern often occuring:
list_for_each_entry(child, &parent->children, brothers) {
// do something with children
}
Abstract it to chain_for_each_child() to factorize and simplify
this pattern.

Add the -m/--modules option to perf report and perf annotate,

The copy we were using came from another copy I did for the dwarves
(pahole) package, that came from the kernel years ago.
The only function that is used by the perf tools and that isn't in the
kernel is list_del_range, that I'm leaving in the perf tools only for
now.

The tools/perf/util/rbtree.c copy already drifted by three
csets:
4b324126e04c6011781116c047add3
So remove the copy and use the lib/rbtree.c directly, sharing
the source code while still generating a separate object file,
since tools/perf uses a far more agressive -O6 switch.

Enable -Wextra. This found a few real bugs plus a number
of signed/unsigned type mismatches/uncleanlinesses. It
also required a few annotations
All things considered it was still worth it so lets try with
this enabled for now.
