Add test case in automated tests suite. It checks not only the two types
of pmu event stytle formats "pmu_event_name" and "cpu/pmu_event_name/",
but also the different formats mixtures which are more likely to trigger
parse issue.
The patch set including this one has been tested by the perf automated
test:
./perf test parse -v"
On haswell, ivybridge and Romley platform.
The patch set also has been tested on haswell by the following script.
Note: please make sure that your test system support TSX and
L1-dcache-loads events. Otherwise, you may want to change the events to
other pmu events.
[lk@localhost ~]$ cat perf_style_test.sh

We will use this in perf's evlist class so that it can, at
fdarray__filter() time, to unmap the associated ring buffer.
We may need to have further info associated with each fdarray entry, in
that case we'll make that int array a 'union fdarray_priv' one and put a
pointer there so that users can stash whatever they want there. For now,
an int is enough tho.
v2: Add clarification to the per array entry priv area, as well as make
it a union, which makes usage a bit longer, but if/when we make it
use more space by allowing per entry pointers existing users source
code will not have to be changed, just rebuilt.

The extensible file description array that grew in the perf_evlist class
can be useful for other tools, as it is not something that only evlists
need, so move it to tools/lib/api/fd to ease sharing it.
v2: Don't use {} like in:
libapi_dirs:
$(QUIET_MKDIR)mkdir -p $(OUTPUT){fs,fd}/
in Makefiles, as it will not work in some systems, as in ubuntu13.10.
v3: Add fd/*.[ch] to LIBAPIKFS_SOURCES (Fix from Jiri Olsa)
v4: Leave the fcntl(fd, O_NONBLOCK) in the evlist layer, remains to
be checked if it is really needed there, but has no place in the
fdarray class (Fix from Jiri Olsa)
v5: Remove evlist details from fdarray grow/filter tests. Improve it a
bit doing more tests about expected internal state.

This allows default config terms to be provided for a PMU. So, for
example, when the Intel PT PMU is added, it will be possible to specify:
intel_pt//
which will be the same as:
intel_pt/tsc=1,noretcomp=0/
meaning that the trace should contain TSC timestamps and perform 'return
compression'.
An important consideration of this patch is that it must be possible to
overwrite the default values. That has meant changing the logic so that
a zero value can replace a non-zero value.

Currently vmlinux_path__init() only tries to find vmlinux file from
current directory, /boot and some canonical directories with version
number of the running kernel. This can be a problem when reporting old
data recorded on a kernel version not running currently.
We can use --symfs option for this but it's annoying for user to do it
always. As we already have the info in the perf.data file, it can be
changed to use it for the search automatically.
Before:
$ perf report
...
# Samples: 4K of event 'cpu-clock'
# Event count (approx.): 1067250000
#
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ .......... ................. ..............................
71.87% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] recover_probed_instruction
After:
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ .......... ................. ....................
71.87% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] native_safe_halt
This requires to change signature of symbol__init() to receive struct
perf_session_env *.

In commit a21b0b354d ('perf: Introduce a flag to enable
close-on-exec in perf_event_open()'), flag PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC
was added to perf_event_open(2) syscall to allows userspace
to atomically enable close-on-exec behavor when creating
the file descriptor.
This patch makes perf tools use the new flag if supported
by the kernel, so that the event file descriptors got
automatically closed if perf tool exec a sub-command.

This reverts commit 3090ffb5a2.
Re-enable the mmap2 interface as we will have a user soon.
Since things have changed since perf disabled mmap2, small tweaks
to the revert had to be done:
o commit 9d4ecc88 forced (n!=8) to become (n<7)
o a new libunwind test needed updating to use mmap2 interface

The new ->add_entry_cb() will be called after an entry was added to
the histogram. It's used for code sharing between perf report and
perf top. Note that ops->add_*_entry() should set iter->he properly
in order to call the ->add_entry_cb.
Also pass @arg to the callback function. It'll be used by perf top
later.

There're some duplicate code when adding hist entries. They are
different in that some have branch info or mem info but generally do
same thing. So introduce new struct hist_entry_iter and add callbacks
to customize each case in general way.
The new perf_evsel__add_entry() function will look like:
iter->prepare_entry();
iter->add_single_entry();
while (iter->next_entry())
iter->add_next_entry();
iter->finish_entry();
This will help further work like the cumulative callchain patchset.

the only reason its still there is because of brain dead software, which

I believe that passing pid (instead of tid) as the 3rd arg of the
machine__find*_thread() was to find a main thread so that it can
search proper map group for symbols. However with the map sharing
patch applied, it now can do it in any thread.
It fixes a bug when each thread has different name, it only reports a
main thread for samples in other threads.

In tests/parse-events.c test cases are declared in evlist_test[]
arrays. Elements of arrays are initialized in following pattern:
[i] = {
.name = ...,
.check = ...,
},
When perf-test is running with '-v' option, 'i' variable will be
printed for every existing test.
However, we can't add any arch specific tests inside #ifdefs, because it
will create collision between the element number inside #ifdef and the
next one outside.
This patch adds 'id' field in evlist_test, uses it as a test
identifier and removes explicit numbering of array elements. This helps
to number tests with gaps.
