Implement printing instruction sequences as hex dump for branch stacks.
This relies on the x86 instruction decoder used by the PT decoder to
find the lengths of instructions to dump them individually.
This is good enough for pattern matching.
This allows to study hot paths for individual samples, together with
branch misprediction and cycle count / IPC information if available (on
Skylake systems).

Only works when no special branch filters are specified.
Occasionally the path does not reach up to the sample IP, as the LBRs
may be frozen before executing a final jump. In this case we print a
special message.
The instruction dumper piggy backs on the existing infrastructure from
the IP PT decoder.
An earlier iteration of this patch relied on a disassembler, but this
version only uses the existing instruction decoder.

Introduce a new option to record PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES events emitted
by the kernel when fork, clone, setns or unshare are invoked. And update
perf-record documentation with the new option to record namespace
events.
Committer notes:
Combined it with a later patch to allow printing it via 'perf report -D'
and be able to test the feature introduced in this patch. Had to move
here also perf_ns__name(), that was introduced in another later patch.
Also used PRIu64 and PRIx64 to fix the build in some enfironments wrt:
util/event.c:1129:39: error: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 6 has type 'long long unsigned int' [-Werror=format=]
ret += fprintf(fp, "%u/%s: %lu/0x%lx%s", idx

Joonwoo reported that there's a mismatch between timestamps in script
and sched commands. This was because of difference in printing the
timestamp. Factor out the code and share it so that they can be in
sync. Also I found that sched map has similar problem, fix it too.
Committer notes:
Fixed the max_lat_at bug introduced by Namhyung's original patch, as
pointed out by Joonwoo, and made it a function following the scnprintf()
model, i.e. returning the number of bytes formatted, and receiving as
the first parameter the object from where the data to the formatting is
obtained, renaming it from:
char *timestamp_in_usec(char *bf, size_t size, u64 timestamp)
to
int timestamp__scnprintf_usec(u64 timestamp, char *bf, size_t size)

Based on patches from Andi Kleen.
When printing PT instruction traces with perf script it is rather useful
to see some indentation for the call tree. This patch adds a new
callindent field to perf script that prints spaces for the function call
stack depth.
We already have code to track the function call stack for PT, that we
can reuse with minor modifications.
The resulting output is not quite as nice as ftrace yet, but a lot
better than what was there before.
Note there are some corner cases when the thread stack gets code
confused and prints incorrect indentation. Even with that it is fairly
useful.
When displaying kernel code traces it is recommended to run as root, as
otherwise perf doesn't understand the kernel addresses properly, and may
not reset the call stack correctly on kernel boundaries.
Example output:
sudo perf-with-kcore record eg2 -a -e intel_pt// -- sleep 1
sudo perf-with-kcore script eg2 --ns -F callindent,time,comm,pid,sym,ip,addr,flags,cpu --itrace=cre | less

The flags field is synthesized and may have a value when Instruction
Trace decoding. The flags are "bcrosyiABEx" which stand for branch,
call, return, conditional, system, asynchronous, interrupt, transaction
abort, trace begin, trace end, and in transaction, respectively.
Change the display so that known combinations of flags are printed more
nicely e.g.: "call" for "bc", "return" for "br", "jcc" for "bo", "jmp"
for "b", "int" for "bci", "iret" for "bri", "syscall" for "bcs",
"sysret" for "brs", "async" for "by", "hw int" for "bcyi", "tx abrt" for
"bA", "tr strt" for "bB", "tr end" for "bE".
However the "x" flag will be displayed separately in those cases e.g.
"jcc (x)" for a condition branch within a transaction.

There's a display inconsistency when there are multiple tracepoint
events, some of which have the 'call-graph' config option set but the
first one hasn't, i.e. the whole logic for call graph processing is
enabled only if the first tracepoint event has call-graph set.
For instance, if we record signal_deliver with call-graph and
signal_generate without:
$ perf record -g -a -e signal:signal_deliver -e signal:signal_generate/call-graph=no/
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (2 samples) ]
$ perf script
kworker/u2:1 13 [000] 6563.875949: signal:signal_generate: sig=2 errno=0 code=128 comm=perf pid=1313 grp=1 res=0 ff61cc __send_signal+0x3ec ([kernel.kallsyms])
perf 1313 [000] 6563.877584: signal:signal_deliver: sig=2 errno=0 code=128 sa_handler=43115e sa_flags=14000000

7fffa5e8 exit_to_usermode_loop+0x80007f002053 ([kernel.kallsyms])
...
Then we exchange the order of these two events in commandline, and keep
signal_generate without call-graph.
$ perf record -g -a -e signal:signal_generate/call-graph=no/ -e signal:signal_deliver
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (2 samples) ]
$ perf script
kworker/u2:2 1314 [000] 6933.353060: signal:signal_generate: sig=2 errno=0 code=128 comm=perf pid=1321 grp=1 res=0

This time, the callchain of the event signal_deliver disappeared. The
problem is caused by that perf only checks for the first evsel in evlist
and decides if callchain should be printed.
This patch traverses all evsels in evlist to see if any of them have
callchains, and shows the right result:
$ perf script

skips the local buildid dir when '--symfs' is given, so that every

We cannot limit processing stacks from the current value of the sysctl,
as we may be processing perf.data files, possibly from other machines.
Instead use the old PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH, the sysctl default, that can
be overriden using --max-stack or equivalent.

There is an upper limit to what tooling considers a valid callchain,
and it was tied to the hardcoded value in the kernel,
PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH (127), now that this can be tuned via a sysctl,
make it read it and use that as the upper limit, falling back to
PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH for kernels where this sysctl isn't present.

This fixes a bug caused by an unitialized callchain cursor. The crash
frist appeared in:
6f736735e3 ("perf evsel: Require that callchains be resolved before
calling fprintf_{sym,callchain}")
The callchain cursor is a struct that contains pointers, that when
uninitialized will cause unpredictable behavior (usually a crash)
when trying to append to the callchain.
The existing implementation has the following issues:
1. The callchain cursor used is not initialized, resulting in
unpredictable behavior when used.
2. The cursor is declared on the stack. Even if it is properly initalized,
the implmentation will leak memory when the function returns,
since all the references to the callchain_nodes allocated by
callchain_cursor_append will be lost when the cursor goes out of
scope.
3. Storing the cursor on the stack is inefficient. Even if memory is
properly freed when it goes out of scope, a performance penalty
will be incurred due to reallocation of callchain nodes.
callchain_cursor_append is designed to avoid these reallocations
when an existing cursor is reused.
This patch fixes the crash by replacing cursor_callchain with a reference
to the global callchain_cursor which also resolves all 3 issues mentioned
above.
How to reproduce the crash:
$ perf record --call-graph=dwarf stress -t 1 -c 1
$ perf script > /dev/null
Segfault

The readdir() function is thread safe as long as just one thread uses a
DIR, which is the case in 'perf script', so, to avoid breaking the build
with glibc-2.23.90 (upcoming 2.24), use it instead of readdir_r().
See: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/readdir.3.html
"However, in modern implementations (including the glibc implementation),
concurrent calls to readdir() that specify different directory streams
are thread-safe. In cases where multiple threads must read from the
same directory stream, using readdir() with external synchronization is
still preferable to the use of the deprecated readdir_r(3) function."
Noticed while building on a Fedora Rawhide docker container.

Andreas reported following command produces no output:
# cat test.py
#!/usr/bin/env python
def stat__krava(cpu, thread, time, val, ena, run):
print "event %s cpu %d, thread %d, time %d, val %d, ena %d, run %d" % \
("krava", cpu, thread, time, val, ena, run)
# perf stat -a -I 1000 -e cycles,"cpu/config=0x6530160,name=krava/" record | perf script -s test.py
^C
#
The reason is that 'perf script' does not process event update events and
will never get the event name update thus the python callback is never
called.
The fix is just to add already existing callback we use in 'perf stat
report'.
Committer note:
After the patch:
# perf stat -a -I 1000 -e cycles,"cpu/config=0x6530160,name=krava/" record | perf script -s test.py
