Since the ip shown for a symbol is now always a virtual address, it
becomes difficult to correlate this with objdump output and determine
the exact instruction address. So, we always show the offset from the
start of the symbol.
This can be verified on a powerpc64le system running Fedora 27 as
follows:
# perf probe -a sys_write
# perf record -e probe:sys_write -g ~/test

Remove the split of symbol tables for data (MAP__VARIABLE) and for
functions (MAP__FUNCTION), its unneeded and there were various places
doing two lookups to find a symbol, so simplify this.
We still will consider only the symbols that matched the filters in
place, i.e. see the (elf_(sec,sym)|symbol_type)__filter() routines in
the patch, just so that we consider only the same symbols as before,
to reduce the possibility of regressions.
All the tests on 50-something build environments, in varios versions
of lots of distros and cross build environments were performed without
build regressions, as usual with all pull requests the other tests were
also performed: 'perf test' and 'make -C tools/perf build-test'.
Also this was done at a great granularity so that regressions can be
bisected more easily.

Out of thread__find_add_map(..., MAP__FUNCTION, ...), idea here is to
continue removing references to MAP__{FUNCTION,VARIABLE} ahead of
getting both types of symbols in the same rbtree, as various places do
two lookups, looking first at MAP__FUNCTION, then at MAP__VARIABLE.
So thread__find_map() will eventually do just that, and 'struct symbol'
will have the symbol type, for code that cares about that.

-o /tmp/perf.data.abc ping -6 -c 1 ::1
# perf script -i /tmp/perf.data.abc

Nothing else changed including glibc elfutils and other libraries picked

I bisected missing __libc_start_main and _start to commit
Fixes: 3d20c6246690 ("perf unwind: Unwind with libdw doesn't take symfs into account")
When I undo this commit I get this call stack on s390:
[root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf script -i /tmp/perf.data.abc

trace when using file /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/ping-20161105-7.fc27.s390x.debug
instead of file /usr/bin/ping.
Fix this test case on s390 and do not expect any call back stack entry
after the main() function. Also be more robust and accept a leading
__GI_ prefix in front of getaddrinfo.
On x86 this test case shows the same call stack using both kernel
versions 4.16.0rc3 and 4.16.0 and also stops at main:

The bpf-script-test-kbuild.c script, used in one of the LLVM subtests,
includes ptrace.h unnecessarily, and that ends up making it include a
header that uses asm(_ASM_SP), a feature that is not supported by clang
<= 4.0, breaking that 'perf test' entry.
This ended up leading to the ca26cffa4e4a ("x86/asm: Allow again using
asm.h when building for the 'bpf' clang target"), adding an ifndef
__BPF__ to the arch/x86/include/asm/asm.h file.
Newer clang versions accept that asm(_ASM_SP) construct, so just remove
the ptrace.h include, which paves the way for reverting ca26cffa4e4a
("x86/asm: Allow again using asm.h when building for the 'bpf' clang
target").

With gcc 8 we get new set of snprintf() warnings that breaks the
compilation, one example:
tests/mem.c: In function ‘check’:
tests/mem.c:19:48: error: ‘%s’ directive output may be truncated writing \
up to 99 bytes into a region of size 89 [-Werror=format-truncation=]
snprintf(failure, sizeof failure, "unexpected %s", out);
The gcc docs says:
To avoid the warning either use a bigger buffer or handle the
function's return value which indicates whether or not its output
has been truncated.
Given that all these warnings are harmless, because the code either
properly fails due to uncomplete file path or we don't care for
truncated output at all, I'm changing all those snprintf() calls to
scnprintf(), which actually 'checks' for the snprint return value so the
gcc stays silent.

Currently when cnt is 100 an array bounds overflow occurs on the
assignment of fd[cnt]. Fix this by performing the bounds check on cnt
before writing to fd.
Detected by cppcheck:
tools/perf/tests/bp_account.c:115: (warning) Either the condition
'cnt==100' is redundant or the array 'fd[100]' is accessed at index 100,

There's a problem with relying on backtrace data from 'perf trace' the
way the trace+probe_libc_inet_pton does. This test inserts uprobe within
ping binary and checks that it gets its sample using 'perf trace'.
It also checks it gets proper backtrace from sample and that's where the
issue is.
The 'perf trace' does not sort events (by definition) so it can happen
that it processes the event sample before the ping binary memory map
event. This can (very rarely) happen as proved by this events dump
output (from custom added debug output):
...
7680/7680: [0x7f4e29718000(0x204000) @ 0 fd:00 33611321 4230892504]: r-xp /usr/lib64/libdl-2.17.so
7680/7680: [0x7f4e29502000(0x216000) @ 0 fd:00 33617257 2606846872]: r-xp /usr/lib64/libz.so.1.2.7
(IP, 0x2): 7680/7680: 0x7f4e29c2ed60 period: 1 addr: 0
7680/7680: [0x564842ef0000(0x233000) @ 0 fd:00 83 1989280200]: r-xp /usr/bin/ping
7680/7680: [0x7f4e2aca2000(0x224000) @ 0 fd:00 33611308 1219144940]: r-xp /usr/lib64/ld-2.17.so
...
In this case 'perf trace' fails to resolve the last callchain IP (within
the ping binary) because it does not know about the ping binary memory
map yet and the test fails like this:
PING ::1(::1) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from ::1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.037 ms

In some situations the vfs_getname is being added both as requested and
with a _1 suffix (inlines?):
probe:vfs_getname_1 (on getname_flags:63@acme/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname)
This ends up making the cleanup to miss that one, as it removes just
'probe:vfs_getname', which makes the second test to use this probe point
to fail, since it finds that leftover from the first test, use a
wildcard to remove both.

(i. e. cycles) or on a z/VM or KVM guest where no hardware events are

Use the cpuid infrastructure functions to determine the cpuid on s390
which contains an indication of the cpu counter facility availability.

The symbol search called by machine__find_kernel_symbol_by_name is using
internally arch__compare_symbol_names function to compare 2 symbol
names, because different archs have different ways of comparing symbols.
Mostly for skipping '.' prefixes and similar.
In test 1 when we try to find matching symbols in kallsyms and vmlinux,
by address and by symbol name. When either is found we compare the pair
symbol names by simple strcmp, which is not good enough for reasons
explained in previous paragraph.
On powerpc this can cause lockup, because even thought we found the
pair, the compared names are different and don't match simple strcmp.
Following code path is executed, that leads to lockup:
- we find the pair in kallsyms by sym->start
next_pair:
- we compare the names and it fails
- we find the pair by sym->name
- the pair addresses match so we call goto next_pair
because we assume the names match in this case
