DWARF version 5 standard Sec 2.14 says that
Any debugging information entry representing the declaration of an object,
module, subprogram or type may have DW_AT_decl_file, DW_AT_decl_line and
DW_AT_decl_column attributes, each of whose value is an unsigned integer
constant.
So it should be an unsigned integer data. Also, even though the standard
doesn't clearly say the DW_AT_call_file is signed or unsigned, the
elfutils (eu-readelf) interprets it as unsigned integer data and it is
natural to handle it as unsigned integer data as same as DW_AT_decl_file.
This changes the DW_AT_call_file as unsigned integer data too.

As this is where we expect to find bpf/bpf_helpers.h, etc.
This needs more work to make it follow LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 usage, i.e. when
not using the system libbpf it should use the headers in the in-kernel
sources libbpf in tools/lib/bpf.
We need to do that anyway to avoid this mixup system libbpf and
in-kernel files, so we'll get this sorted out that way.
And this also may become moot as we move to using BPF skels for this
feature.

The attempt at using BPF to copy syscall pointer arguments to show them
like strace does started with sys_{enter,exit}_SYSCALL_NAME tracepoints,
in tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_syscalls.c, but then achieving this
result using raw_syscalls:{enter,exit} and BPF tail calls was deemed
more flexible.
The 'perf trace' codebase was adapted to using it while trying to
continue supporting the old style per-syscall tracepoints, which at some
point became too unwieldly and now isn't working properly.
So lets scale back and concentrate on the augmented_raw_syscalls.c
model on the way to using BPF skeletons.
For the same reason remove the etcsnoop.c example, that used the
old style per-tp syscalls just for the 'open' and 'openat' syscalls,
looking at the pathnames starting with "/etc/", we should be able
to do this later using filters, after we move to BPF skels.
The augmented_raw_syscalls.c one continues to work, now with libbpf 1.0,
after Ian work on using the libbpf map style:
# perf trace -e ~acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c,open* --max-events 4

Fix to get the declared file name even if it uses file index 0
in DWARF5, using custom die_get_decl_file() function.
Actually, the DWARF5 standard says file index 0 of the DW_AT_decl_file
is invalid(1), but there is a discussion and maybe this will be updated
[2].
Anyway, clang generates such DWARF5 file for the linux kernel. Thus it
must be handled.
Without this, 'perf probe' returns an error:
$ ./perf probe -k $BIN_PATH/vmlinux -s $SRC_PATH -L vfs_read:10
Debuginfo analysis failed.
Error: Failed to show lines.
With this, it can handle the case correctly:
$ ./perf probe -k $BIN_PATH/vmlinux -s $SRC_PATH -L vfs_read:10
<vfs_read@$SRC_PATH/fs/read_write.c:10>
11 ret = rw_verify_area(READ, file, pos, count);
12 if (ret)
return ret;
[1] DWARF5 specification 2.14 says "The value 0 indicates that no source file has been specified.")

Since clang generates DWARF5 which sets DW_AT_decl_file as 0,
dwarf_decl_file() thinks that is invalid and returns NULL. In that case
'perf probe' SIGSEGVs because it doesn't expect a NULL decl_file.
This adds a dwarf_decl_file() return value check to avoid such SEGV with
clang generated DWARF5 info.
Without this, 'perf probe' crashes:
$ perf probe -k $BIN_PATH/vmlinux -s $SRC_PATH -L vfs_read:10

With this, it just warns about it:

In most configurations, it works well with skipping 4 entries by
default. If some systems still have 3 BPF internal stack frames,
the next frame should be in a lock function which will be skipped
later when it tries to find a caller. So increasing to 4 won't
affect such systems too.

Skip an event configuration for event names with a dash/minus in them.
Events with a dash/minus in their name cause parsing issues as legacy
encoding of events would use a dash/minus as a separator.
The parser separates events with dashes into prefixes and suffixes and
then recombines them. Unfortunately if an event has part of its name
that matches a legacy token then the recombining fails.
This is seen for branch-brs where branch is a legacy token. branch-brs
was introduced to sysfs in:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220322221517.2510440-5-eranian@google.com/
The failure is shown below as well as the workaround to use a config
where the dash/minus isn't treated specially:
```
$ perf stat -e branch-brs true
event syntax error: 'branch-brs'
\___ parser error
$ perf stat -e cpu/branch-brs/ true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
46,179 cpu/branch-brs/

Use the global quiet variable everywhere so that all tools hide warnings
in quiet mode and update the documentation to reflect this.
'perf probe' claimed that errors are not printed in quiet mode but I
don't see this so remove it from the docs.

Especially when CONFIG_LOCKDEP and other debug configs are enabled,
Perf can print the following warning when running the "kernel lock
contention analysis" test:
Warning:
Processed 1378918 events and lost 4 chunks!
Check IO/CPU overload!
Warning:
Processed 4593325 samples and lost 70.00%!
The test already supplies -q to run in quiet mode, so extend quiet mode
to perf_stdio__warning() and also ui__warning() for consistency.
This fixes the following failure due to the extra lines counted:
perf test "lock cont" -vvv
82: kernel lock contention analysis test :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 3125
Testing perf lock record and perf lock contention
[Fail] Recorded result count is not 1: 9

It now has 4 sub tests and at least one of them should run.
But once the TEST_SKIP (= 2) return value is set, it won't be
overwritten unless there's a failure. I think we should return success
when one or more tests are skipped but the remaining subtests are
passed.
So update the test code not to set the err variable when it skips
the test.

The --threads option changed the 'perf record' behavior significantly,
so it'd be nice if we test it separately. Add --threads options with
different argument in each test supported and check the result.
Also update the cleanup routine because threads recording produces data
in a directory.

Add a subtest which profiles the given workload on the command line.
As it's a minimal requirement, the test should run ok so it doesn't skip

Add system wide recording test with the same pattern. It'd skip the
test when it fails to run 'perf record'.
For system-wide mode, it needs to avoid build-id collection and
synthesis because the test only cares about the test program and kernel
would generate the necessary events as the process starts.

Just running the target program is not enough to test multi-thread
target because it'd be racy perf vs target startup. I used the
initial delay but it cannot guarantee for perf to see the thread.
Instead, use wait_for_threads helper from shell/lib/waiting.sh to make
sure it starts the sibling thread first. Then perf record can use -p
option to profile the target process.

If the system has cc it could build a test program with two threads
and then use it for more detailed testing. Also it accepts an option
to run a thread forever to ensure multi-thread runs.
If cc is not found, it falls back to use the default value 'true'.

I think it's to support non-root user tests. But perf record can handle
the case and fall back to a software event (cpu-clock). Practically this
would affect when it's run on a VM, but it seems no reason to prevent running
the test in the guest.

Intel PT timestamps are not provided for every branch, let alone every
instruction, so there can be many samples with the same timestamp. With
per-cpu contexts, decoding is done for each CPU in turn, which can make it
difficult to see what is happening on different CPUs at the same time.
Currently the interleaving from perf script --itrace=i0ns is quite coarse
grained. There are often long stretches executing on one CPU and nothing on
another.
Some people are interested in seeing what happened on multiple CPUs before
a crash to debug races etc.
To improve perf script interleaving for parallel execution, the
intel-pt-events.py script has been enhanced to enable interleaving the
output with the same timestamp from different CPUs. It is understood that
interleaving is not perfect or causal.
Add parameter --interleave [<n>] to interleave sample output for the same
timestamp so that no more than n samples for a CPU are displayed in a row.
'n' defaults to 4. Note this only affects the order of output, and only
when the timestamp is the same.
Example:
$ perf script intel-pt-events.py --insn-trace --interleave 3
