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.

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.

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.

In places where the equivalent was already being done, i.e.:
free(a);
a = NULL;
And in placs where struct members are being freed so that if we have
some erroneous reference to its struct, then accesses to freed members
will result in segfaults, which we can detect faster than use after free
to areas that may still have something seemingly valid.

We got the sane_ctype.h headers from git and kept using it so far, but
since that code originally came from the kernel sources to the git
sources, perhaps its better to just use the one in the kernel, so that
we can leverage tools/perf/check_headers.sh to be notified when our copy
gets out of sync, i.e. when fixes or goodies are added to the code we've
copied.
This will help with things like tools/lib/string.c where we want to have
more things in common with the kernel, such as strim(), skip_spaces(),
etc so as to go on removing the things that we have in tools/perf/util/
and instead using the code in the kernel, indirectly and removing things
like EXPORT_SYMBOL(), etc, getting notified when fixes and improvements
are made to the original code.
Hopefully this also should help with reducing the difference of code
hosted in tools/ to the one in the kernel proper.

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
perf record:
Alexey Budankov:
- Allow mixing --user-regs with --call-graph=dwarf, making sure that
the minimal set of registers for DWARF unwinding is present in the
set of user registers requested to be present in each sample, while
warning the user that this may make callchains unreliable if more
that the minimal set of registers is needed to unwind.
yuzhoujian:
- Add support to collect callchains from kernel or user space only,
IOW allow setting the perf_event_attr.exclude_callchain_{kernel,user}
bits from the command line.
perf trace:
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Remove x86_64 specific syscall numbers from the augmented_raw_syscalls
BPF in-kernel collector of augmented raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit}
payloads, use instead the syscall numbers obtainer either by the
arch specific syscalltbl generators or from audit-libs.
- Allow 'perf trace' to ask for the number of bytes to collect for
string arguments, for now ask for PATH_MAX, i.e. the whole
pathnames, which ends up being just a way to speficy which syscall
args are pathnames and thus should be read using bpf_probe_read_str().
- Skip unknown syscalls when expanding strace like syscall groups.
This helps using the 'string' group of syscalls to work in arm64,
where some of the syscalls present in x86_64 that deal with
strings, for instance 'access', are deprecated and this should not
be asked for tracing.
Leo Yan:
- Exit when failing to build eBPF program.
perf config:
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Bail out when a handler returns failure for a key-value pair. This
helps with cases where processing a key-value pair is not just a
matter of setting some tool specific knob, involving, for instance
building a BPF program to then attach to the list of events 'perf
trace' will use, e.g. augmented_raw_syscalls.c.
perf.data:
Kan Liang:
- Read and store die ID information available in new Intel processors
in CPUID.1F in the CPU topology written in the perf.data header.
perf stat:
Kan Liang:
- Support per-die aggregation.
Documentation:
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Update perf.data documentation about the CPU_TOPOLOGY, MEM_TOPOLOGY,
CLOCKID and DIR_FORMAT headers.
Song Liu:
- Add description of headers HEADER_BPF_PROG_INFO and HEADER_BPF_BTF.
Leo Yan:
- Update default value for llvm.clang-bpf-cmd-template in 'man perf-config'.
JVMTI:
Jiri Olsa:
- Address gcc string overflow warning for strncpy()
core:
- Remove superfluous nthreads system_wide setup in perf_evsel__alloc_fd().
Intel PT:
Adrian Hunter:
- Add support for samples to contain IPC ratio, collecting cycles
information from CYC packets, showing the IPC info periodically, because
Intel PT does not update the cycle count on every branch or instruction,
the incremental values will often be zero. When there are values, they
will be the number of instructions and number of cycles since the last
update, and thus represent the average IPC since the last IPC value.
E.g.:
# perf record --cpu 1 -m200000 -a -e intel_pt/cyc/u sleep 0.0001
rounding mmap pages size to 1024M (262144 pages)
[ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.208 MB perf.data ]

Debugging a OOM error using the TUI interface revealed this issue
on s390:

There is a huge gap between the last kernel symbol
__bss_stop/_end and the first kernel module symbol
autofs_mount (from autofs4 module).
After reading the kernel symbol table via functions:
dso__load()
+--> dso__load_kernel_sym()
+--> dso__load_kallsyms()
+--> __dso_load_kallsyms()
+--> symbols__fixup_end()
the symbol __bss_stop has a start address of 1119b8000 and
an end address of 3ff80002850, as can be seen by this debug statement:
symbols__fixup_end __bss_stop start:0x1119b8000 end:0x3ff80002850
The size of symbol __bss_stop is 0x3fe6e64a850 bytes!
It is the last kernel symbol and fills up the space until
the first kernel module symbol.
This size kills the TUI interface when executing the following
code:
process_sample_event()
hist_entry_iter__add()
hist_iter__report_callback()
hist_entry__inc_addr_samples()
symbol__inc_addr_samples(symbol = __bss_stop)
symbol__cycles_hist()
annotated_source__alloc_histograms(...,
symbol__size(sym),
...)
This function allocates memory to save sample histograms.
The symbol_size() marco is defined as sym->end - sym->start, which
results in above value of 0x3fe6e64a850 bytes and
the call to calloc() in annotated_source__alloc_histograms() fails.
The histgram memory allocation might fail, make this failure
no-fatal and continue processing.
