Introduce 'perf stat -b' option, which counts events for BPF programs, like:
[root@localhost ~]# ~/perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles -b 254 -I 1000
1.487903822 115,200 ref-cycles
1.487903822 86,012 cycles
2.489147029 80,560 ref-cycles
2.489147029 73,784 cycles
3.490341825 60,720 ref-cycles
3.490341825 37,797 cycles
4.491540887 37,120 ref-cycles
4.491540887 31,963 cycles
The example above counts 'cycles' and 'ref-cycles' of BPF program of id
254. This is similar to bpftool-prog-profile command, but more
flexible.
'perf stat -b' creates per-cpu perf_event and loads fentry/fexit BPF
programs (monitor-progs) to the target BPF program (target-prog). The
monitor-progs read perf_event before and after the target-prog, and
aggregate the difference in a BPF map. Then the user space reads data
from these maps.
A new 'struct bpf_counter' is introduced to provide a common interface
that uses BPF programs/maps to count perf events.
Committer notes:
Removed all but bpf_counter.h includes from evsel.h, not needed at all.
Also BPF map lookups for PERCPU_ARRAYs need to have as its value receive
buffer passed to the kernel libbpf_num_possible_cpus() entries, not
evsel__nr_cpus(evsel), as the former uses
/sys/devices/system/cpu/possible while the later uses
/sys/devices/system/cpu/online, which may be less than the 'possible'
number making the bpf map lookup overwrite memory and cause hard to
debug memory corruption.
We need to continue using evsel__nr_cpus(evsel) when accessing the
perf_counts array tho, not to overwrite another are of memory :-)

Pruning a bit more the includes dependency tree. Building this thing on
lots of containers takes time, we better reduce the time per build, each
container is doing 6 builds when clang and clang-devel are available,
and the plan is to do a 'make -C tools/perf build-test' that have many
more.
Also helps when doing normal development, as touching some random file
will have a much reduced chance of triggering lots of rebuilds.

The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that
returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else.
But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the
function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided
buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that
instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine
Linux, where musl libc is used.
So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU
interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that
users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is
returned.

Perf uses GNU-specific version of strerror_r(). The GNU-specific strerror_r()
returns a pointer to a string containing the error message. This may be either
a pointer to a string that the function stores in buf, or a pointer to some
(immutable) static string (in which case buf is unused).
In glibc-2.16 GNU version was marked with attribute warn_unused_result. It
triggers few warnings in perf:
util/target.c: In function ‘perf_target__strerror’:
util/target.c:114:13: error: ignoring return value of ‘strerror_r’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Werror=unused-result]
ui/browsers/hists.c: In function ‘hist_browser__dump’:
ui/browsers/hists.c:981:13: error: ignoring return value of ‘strerror_r’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Werror=unused-result]
They are bugs.
Let's fix strerror_r() usage.
