Our local MSAN (Memory Sanitizer) build of perf throws a warning that
comes from the "dso__disassemble_filename" function in
"tools/perf/util/annotate.c" when running perf record.
The warning stems from the call to readlink, in which "build_id_path"
was being read into "linkname". Since readlink does not null terminate,
an uninitialized memory access would later occur when "linkname" is
passed into the strstr function. This is simply fixed by
null-terminating "linkname" after the call to readlink.
To reproduce this warning, build perf by running:
$ make -C tools/perf CLANG=1 CC=clang EXTRA_CFLAGS="-fsanitize=memory -fsanitize-memory-track-origins"
(Additionally, llvm might have to be installed and clang might have to
be specified as the compiler - export CC=/usr/bin/clang)
Then running:
tools/perf/perf record -o - ls / | tools/perf/perf --no-pager annotate -i - --stdio
Please see the cover letter for why false positive warnings may be
generated.

Add the DSO_BINARY_TYPE__BPF_IMAGE dso binary type to recognize BPF
images that carry trampoline or dispatcher.
Upcoming patches will add support to read the image data, store it
within the BPF feature in perf.data and display it for annotation
purposes.
Currently we only display following message:

While rendering annotate browser from perf report tui, we keep track
of total number of lines(asm + source) in annotation->nr_entries and
total number of asm lines in annotation->nr_asm_entries. But we don't
reset them before starting. Thus if user annotates same function
multiple times, we restart incrementing these fields with old values.
This causes a segfault when user tries to toggle source code after
annotating same function multiple times. Fix it.

We are allocating disasm_line object in annotation_line__new() instead
of disasm_line__new(). Similarly annotation_line__delete() is actually
freeing disasm_line object as well. This complexity is because of
privsize. But we don't need privsize anymore so get rid of privsize and
simplify disasm_line allocation and freeing code.

perf annotate --show-nr-samples does not really show number of samples.
The reason is we have two separate variables for the same purpose.
One is in symbol_conf.show_nr_samples and another is
annotation_options.show_nr_samples.
We save command line option in symbol_conf.show_nr_samples but uses
annotation_option.show_nr_samples while rendering tui/stdio2 browser.
Though, we copy symbol_conf.show_nr_samples to
annotation__default_options.show_nr_samples but that is not really
effective as we don't use annotation__default_options once we copy
default options to dynamic variable annotate.opts in cmd_annotate().
Instead of all these complication, keep only one variable and use it all
over. symbol_conf.show_nr_samples is used by perf report/top as well. So
let's kill annotation_options.show_nr_samples.
On a side note, I've kept annotation_options.show_nr_samples definition
because it's still used by perf-config code. Follow up patch to fix
perf-config for annotate will remove annotation_options.show_nr_samples.

And pick the shortest name: 'struct maps'.
The split existed because we used to have two groups of maps, one for
functions and one for variables, but that only complicated things,
sometimes we needed to figure out what was at some address and then had
to first try it on the functions group and if that failed, fall back to
the variables one.
That split is long gone, so for quite a while we had only one struct
maps per struct map_groups, simplify things by combining those structs.
First patch is the minimum needed to merge both, follow up patches will
rename 'thread->mg' to 'thread->maps', etc.

So that we pass that substructure around and with it consolidate lots of
functions that receive a (map, symbol) pair and now can receive just a
'struct map_symbol' pointer.
This further paves the way to add 'struct map_groups' to 'struct
map_symbol' so that we can have all we need for annotation so that we
can ditch 'struct map'->groups, i.e. have the map_groups pointer in a
more central place, avoiding the pointer in the 'struct map' that have
tons of instances.

We are already passing things like:
symbol__annotate(ms->sym, ms->map, ...)
So shorten the signature of such functions to receive the 'map_symbol'
pointer.
This also paves the way to having the 'struct map_groups' pointer in the
'struct map_symbol' so that we can get rid of 'struct map'->groups.

We were just passing a map to look for and reuse its map->groups member,
but the idea is that this is going away, as a map can be in multiple
rb_trees when being reused via a map_node, so do as all the other
map_groups methods and pass as its first arg the object being operated
on.

The callers of symbol__annotate2() use symbol__strerror_disassemble() to
convert its failure returns into a human readable string, so
propagate error values from functions it calls, starting with
perf_env__arch() that when fails the right thing to do is to look at
'errno' to see why its possible call to uname() failed.

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.

Remove the last unneeded use of cache.h in a header, we can check where
it is really needed, i.e. we can remove it and be sure that it isn't
being obtained indirectly.
This is an old file, used by now incorrectly in many places, so it was
providing includes needed indirectly, fixup this fallout.

The code to disassemble BPF programs uses binutil's disassembling
routines, and those use in turn fprintf to print to a memstream FILE,
adding a newline at the end of each line, which ends up confusing the
TUI routines called from:
annotate_browser__write()
annotate_line__write()
annotate_browser__printf()
ui_browser__vprintf()
SLsmg_vprintf()
The SLsmg_vprintf() function in the slang library gets confused with the
terminating newline, so make the disasm_line__parse() function that
parses the lines produced by the BPF specific disassembler (that uses
binutil's libopcodes) and the lines produced by the objdump based
disassembler used for everything else (and that doesn't adds this
terminating newline) trim the end of the line in addition of the
beginning.
This way when disasm_line->ops.raw, i.e. for instructions without a
special scnprintf() method, we'll not have that \n getting in the way of
filling the screen right after the instruction with spaces to avoid
leaving what was on the screen before and thus garbling the annotation
screen, breaking scrolling, etc.
