When I execute 'perf top' without HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT, there exists the
following segmentation fault, skip the side-band event setup to fix it,
this is similar with commit 1101c872c8 ("perf record: Skip side-band
event setup if HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT is not set").
[yangtiezhu@linux perf]$ ./perf top
<SNIP>
perf: Segmentation fault
Obtained 6 stack frames.

I use git bisect to find commit b38d85ef49 ("perf bpf: Decouple
creating the evlist from adding the SB event") is the first bad commit,
so also add the Fixes tag.
Committer testing:
First build perf explicitely disabling libbpf:
$ make NO_LIBBPF=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin && perf test python
Now make sure it isn't linked:
$ perf -vv | grep -w bpf
bpf: [ OFF ] # HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT
$
$ nm ~/bin/perf | grep libbpf
$
And now try to run 'perf top':
# perf top
perf: Segmentation fault

It would be nice if we can use a hotkey in perf top browser to select a
event for sorting.
For example:
perf top --group -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses

Since glibc 2.28 when running 'perf top --stdio', input handling no
longer works, but hitting any key always just prints the "Mapped keys"
help text.
To fix it, call clearerr() in the display_thread() loop to clear any EOF
sticky errors, as instructed in the glibc NEWS file
(https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob;f=NEWS):
* All stdio functions now treat end-of-file as a sticky condition. If you
read from a file until EOF, and then the file is enlarged by another
process, you must call clearerr or another function with the same effect
(e.g. fseek, rewind) before you can read the additional data. This
corrects a longstanding C99 conformance bug. It is most likely to affect
programs that use stdio to read interactive input from a terminal.
(Bug #1190.)

The objdump utility has useful --prefix / --prefix-strip options to
allow changing source code file names hardcoded into executables' debug
info. Add options to 'perf report', 'perf top' and 'perf annotate',
which are then passed to objdump.

'perf top' stopped working on hw architectures that do not provide a
get_cpuid() implementation and thus fallback to the weak get_cpuid()
default function.
This is done because at annotation time we may need it in the arch
specific annotation init routine, but that is only being used by arches
that do provide a get_cpuid() implementation:
$ find tools/ -name "*.[ch]" | xargs grep 'evlist->env'
tools/perf/builtin-top.c: top.evlist->env = &perf_env;
tools/perf/util/evsel.c: return evsel->evlist->env;
tools/perf/util/s390-cpumsf.c: sf->machine_type = s390_cpumsf_get_type(session->evlist->env->cpuid);
tools/perf/util/header.c: session->evlist->env = &header->env;
tools/perf/util/sample-raw.c: const char *arch_pf = perf_env__arch(evlist->env);
$
$ find tools/perf/arch -name "*.[ch]" | xargs grep -w get_cpuid
tools/perf/arch/x86/util/auxtrace.c: ret = get_cpuid(buffer, sizeof(buffer));
tools/perf/arch/x86/util/header.c:get_cpuid(char *buffer, size_t sz)
tools/perf/arch/powerpc/util/header.c:get_cpuid(char *buffer, size_t sz)
tools/perf/arch/s390/util/header.c: * Implementation of get_cpuid().
tools/perf/arch/s390/util/header.c:int get_cpuid(char *buffer, size_t sz)
tools/perf/arch/s390/util/header.c: if (buf && get_cpuid(buf, 128))
$
For 'report' or 'script', i.e. tools working on perf.data files, that is
setup while reading the header, its just top that needs to explicitely
read it at tool start.

As this isn't used at all in mmap.h but in evlist.h, so to cut down the
header dependency tree, move it to where it is used.
Also add mmap.h to the places using it but previously getting it
indirectly via evlist.h.
Add missing pthread.h to evlist.h, as it has a pthread_t struct member
and was getting the header via mmap.h.
Noticed while processing a Jiri's libperf batch touching mmap.h, where
almost everything gets rebuilt because evlist.h is so popular, so cut
down't this rebuild the world party.

The event group feature links relevant hist entries among events so that
they can be displayed together. During the link process, each hist
entry in non-leader events is connected to a hist entry in the leader
event. This is done in order of events specified in the command line so
it assumes that events are linked in the order.
But 'perf top' can break the assumption since it does the link process
multiple times. For example, a hist entry can be in the third event
only at first so it's linked after the leader. Some time later, second
event has a hist entry for it and it'll be linked after the entry of the
third event.
This makes the code compilicated to deal with such unordered entries.
This patch simply unlink all the entries after it's printed so that they
can assume the correct order after the repeated link process. Also it'd
be easy to deal with decaying old entries IMHO.
