One more, to reuse the augmented_sockaddr_syscall_enter() macro
introduced from the augmentation of connect's sockaddr arg, also to get
a subset of the struct arg augmentations done using the manual method,
before switching to something automatic, using tracefs's format file or,
even better, BTF containing the syscall args structs.

So that we don't have to define sockaddr_storage in the
augmented_syscalls.c bpf example when hooking into syscalls needing it,
idea is to mimic the system headers. Eventually we probably need to have
sys/socket.h, etc. Start by having at least linux/socket.h.

I need to check the need for $KERNEL_INC_OPTIONS when building eBPF
restricted C programs, for now just give precedence to
$PERF_BPF_INC_OPTIONS so that we can get a linux/socket.h usable

Helping with tons of boilerplate for syscalls that only want to augment
a filename. Now supporting one such syscall is just a matter of
declaring its arguments struct + using:
augmented_filename_syscall_enter(openat);

This is the final touch in showing how a syscall argument beautifier can
access the augmented args put in place by the
tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_syscalls.c eBPF script, right after
the regular raw syscall args, i.e. the up to 6 long integer values in
the syscall interface.
With this we are able to show the 'openat' syscall arg, now with up to
64 bytes, but in time this will be configurable, just like with the
'strace -s strsize' argument, from 'strace''s man page:
-s strsize Specify the maximum string size to print (the default is 32).
This actually is the maximum string to _collect_ and store in the ring
buffer, not just print.

This cset should show all the aspects of establishing a protocol between
an eBPF syscall arg augmenter program, tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_syscalls.c and
a 'perf trace' beautifier, the one associated with all 'char *' point
syscall args with names that can heuristically be associated with
filenames.
Now to wire up 'open' to show a second syscall using this scheme, all we
have to do now is to change tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_syscalls.c,
as 'perf trace' will notice that the perf_sample.raw_size is more than
what is expected for a particular syscall payload as defined by its
tracefs format file and will then use the augmented payload in the
'filename' syscall arg beautifier.
The same protocol will be used for structs such as 'struct sockaddr *',
'struct pollfd', etc, with additions for handling arrays.
This will all be done under the hood when 'perf trace' realizes the
system has the necessary components, and also can be done by providing
a precompiled augmented_syscalls.c eBPF ELF object.

When we attach a eBPF object to a tracepoint, if we return 1, then that
tracepoint will be stored in the perf's ring buffer. In the
augmented_syscalls.c case we want to just attach and _override_ the
tracepoint payload with an augmented, extended one.
In this example, tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_syscalls.c, we are
attaching to the 'openat' syscall, and adding, after the
syscalls:sys_enter_openat usual payload as defined by
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_openat/format, a
snapshot of its sole pointer arg:
# grep 'field:.*\*' /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_openat/format
field:const char * filename; offset:24; size:8; signed:0;
#
For now this is not being considered, the next csets will make use of
it, but as this is overriding the syscall tracepoint enter, we don't
want that event appearing on the ring buffer, just our synthesized one.

using:
# grep 'field:.*syscall_nr' /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_openat/format

#

tracepoint puts it.

If the tracepoint payload is bigger than what a syscall expected from
what is in its format file in tracefs, then that will be used as

Starting with binutils 2.28, aarch64 objdump adds comments to the
disassembly output to show the alternative names of a condition code
[1].
It is assumed that commas in objdump comments could occur in other
arches now or in the future, so this fix is arch-independent.
The fix could have been done with arm64 specific jump__parse and
jump__scnprintf functions, but the jump__scnprintf instruction would
have to have its comment character be a literal, since the scnprintf
functions cannot receive a struct arch easily.
This inconvenience also applies to the generic jump__scnprintf, which is
why we add a raw_comment pointer to struct ins_operands, so the __parse
function assigns it to be re-used by its corresponding __scnprintf
function.
Example differences in 'perf annotate --stdio2' output on an aarch64
perf.data file:
BEFORE: → b.cs ffff200008133d1c <unwind_frame+0x18c> // b.hs, dffff7ecc47b
AFTER : ↓ b.cs 18c
BEFORE: → b.cc ffff200008d8d9cc <get_alloc_profile+0x31c> // b.lo, b.ul, dffff727295b
AFTER : ↓ b.cc 31c
The branch target labels 18c and 31c also now appear in the output:
BEFORE: add x26, x29, #0x80
AFTER : 18c: add x26, x29, #0x80
BEFORE: add x21, x21, #0x8
AFTER : 31c: add x21, x21, #0x8
The Fixes: tag below is added so stable branches will get the update; it
doesn't necessarily mean that commit was broken at the time, rather it
didn't withstand the aarch64 objdump update.
Tested no difference in output for sample x86_64, power arch perf.data files.

Some implementations of libc do not support the 'm' width modifier as
part of the scanf string format specifier. This can cause the parsing to
fail. Since the parser never checks if the scanf parsing was
successesful, this can result in a crash.
Change the comm string to be allocated as a fixed size instead of
dynamically using 'm' scanf width modifier. This can be safely done
since comm size is limited to 16 bytes by TASK_COMM_LEN within the
kernel.
This change prevents perf from crashing when linked against bionic as
well as reduces the total number of heap allocations and frees invoked
while accomplishing the same task.

The new syscall table support for arm64 mistakenly used the system's
asm-generic/unistd.h file when processing the
tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h file's include directive:
#include <asm-generic/unistd.h>
See "Committer notes" section of commit 2b58824356 "perf arm64:
Generate system call table from asm/unistd.h" for more details.
This patch removes the committer's temporary workaround, and instructs
the host compiler to search the build tree's include path for the right
copy of the unistd.h file, instead of the one on the system's
/usr/include path.
It thus fixes the committer's test that cross-builds an arm64 perf on an
x86 platform running Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS with an old toolchain:
$ tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls/mksyscalltbl /gcc-linaro-5.4.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc gcc `pwd`/tools tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h | grep bpf

We need to change the breakpoint even if the attr with new fields has
disabled set to true.
Current code prevents following user code to change the breakpoint
address:
ptrace(PTRACE_POKEUSER, child, offsetof(struct user, u_debugreg[0]), addr_1)
ptrace(PTRACE_POKEUSER, child, offsetof(struct user, u_debugreg[0]), addr_2)
ptrace(PTRACE_POKEUSER, child, offsetof(struct user, u_debugreg[7]), dr7)
The first PTRACE_POKEUSER creates the breakpoint with attr.disabled set
to true:
ptrace_set_breakpoint_addr(nr = 0)
struct perf_event *bp = t->ptrace_bps[nr];
ptrace_register_breakpoint(..., disabled = true)
ptrace_fill_bp_fields(..., disabled)
register_user_hw_breakpoint
So the second PTRACE_POKEUSER will be omitted:

Adding to tests that aims on kernel breakpoint modification bugs.
First test creates HW breakpoint, tries to change it and checks it was
properly changed. It aims on kernel issue that prevents HW breakpoint to
be changed via ptrace interface.
The first test forks, the child sets itself as ptrace tracee and waits
in signal for parent to trace it, then it calls bp_1 and quits.
The parent does following steps:
- creates a new breakpoint (id 0) for bp_2 function
- changes that breakpoint to bp_1 function
- waits for the breakpoint to hit and checks
it has proper rip of bp_1 function
This test aims on an issue in kernel preventing to change disabled
breakpoints
Second test mimics the first one except for few steps
in the parent:
- creates a new breakpoint (id 0) for bp_1 function
- changes that breakpoint to bogus (-1) address
- waits for the breakpoint to hit and checks
it has proper rip of bp_1 function
This test aims on an issue in kernel disabling enabled
breakpoint after unsuccesful change.

The reason for this is in the python interface, that allows a script to
pass arbitrary cpu number, which is then used to access struct
perf_evlist::mmap array. That's obviously wrong and works only when if
all cpus are available and fails if some cpu is missing, like in the
example above.
This patch makes pyrf_evlist__read_on_cpu() search the evlist's maps
array for the proper map to access.
It's linear search at the moment. Based on the way how is the
read_on_cpu used, I don't think we need to be fast in here. But we
could add some hash in the middle to make it fast/er.
We don't allow python interface to set write_backward event attribute,
so it's safe to check only evlist's mmaps.

Add is_compressed callback to the compressions array, that returns 0 if
the file is compressed or != 0 if not.
The new callback is used to recognize the situation when we have a
'compressed' object, like:
/lib/modules/.../drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb.ko.xz
but we need to read its debug data from debuginfo files, which might not
be compressed, like:
/root/.debug/.build-id/d6/...c4b301f/debug
So even for a 'compressed' object we read debug data from a plain
uncompressed object. To keep this transparent, we detect this in
decompress_kmodule() and return the file descriptor to the uncompressed
file.

We will add a compression check in the following patch and it makes it
easier if the file processing is done in a single place. It also makes
the current code simpler.
The decompress_kmodule function now returns the fd of the uncompressed
file and the file name in the pathname arg, if it's provided.

Store a decompression ID in 'struct kmod_path', so it can be later
stored in 'struct dso'.
Switch 'struct kmod_path's 'comp' from 'bool' to 'int' to return the
compressions array index. Add 0 index item into compressions array, so
that the comp usage stays as it was: 0 - no compression, != 0
compression index.
Update the kmod_path tests.

This is the second version of a patch that improves the error message of
the perf events parser when the PMU hardware does not support address
filters.
Previously, the perf returned the following error:
$ perf record -e intel_pt// --filter 'filter sys_write'
--filter option should follow a -e tracepoint or HW tracer option
This implies there is some syntax error present in the command line,
which is not true. Rather, notify the user that the CPU does not have
support for this feature.
For example, Intel chips based on the Broadwell micro-archticture have
the Intel PT PMU, but do not support address filtering.
Now, perf prints the following error message:
$ perf record -e intel_pt// --filter 'filter sys_write'
This CPU does not support address filtering
