When we started using a thread to catch the PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT meta
data events to then ask the kernel for further info (BTF, etc) for BPF
programs shortly after they get loaded, we forgot to use
unshare(CLONE_FS) as was done in:
868a832918 ("perf top: Support lookup of symbols in other mount namespaces.")
Do it so that we can enter the namespaces to read the build-ids at the
end of a 'perf record' session for the DSOs that had hits.
Before:
Starting a 'stress-ng --cpus 8' inside a container and then, outside the
container running:
# perf record -a --namespaces sleep 5
# perf buildid-list | grep stress-ng
#
We would end up with a 'perf.data' file that had no entry in its
build-id table for the /usr/bin/stress-ng binary inside the container
that got tons of PERF_RECORD_SAMPLEs.
After:
# perf buildid-list | grep stress-ng
f2ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29 /usr/bin/stress-ng
#
Then its just a matter of making sure that that binary debuginfo package
gets available in a place that 'perf report' will look at build-id keyed
ELF files, which, in my case, on a f30 notebook, was a matter of
installing the debuginfo file for the distro used in the container,
fedora 31:
# rpm -ivh http://fedora.c3sl.ufpr.br/linux/development/31/Everything/x86_64/debug/tree/Packages/s/stress-ng-debuginfo-0.07.29-10.fc31.x86_64.rpm
Then, because perf currently looks for those debuginfo files (richer ELF
symtab) inside that namespace (look at the setns calls):
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/proc/self/ns/mnt", O_RDONLY) = 137
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/proc/13169/ns/mnt", O_RDONLY) = 139
setns(139, CLONE_NEWNS) = 0
stat("/usr/bin/stress-ng", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=3065416, ...}) = 0
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/usr/bin/stress-ng", O_RDONLY) = 140
fcntl(140, F_GETFD) = 0
fstat(140, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=3065416, ...}) = 0

munmap(0x7ff2fdc5b000, 3065416) = 0
close(140) = 0
stat("stress-ng-0.07.29-10.fc31.x86_64.debug", 0x7fff45d71260) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

stat("/root/.debug/.build-id/f2/ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29", 0x7fff45d711e0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
To only then go back to the "host" namespace to look just in the users's
~/.debug cache:
setns(137, CLONE_NEWNS) = 0
chdir("/root") = 0
close(137) = 0
close(139) = 0
stat("/root/.debug/.build-id/f2/ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29/elf", 0x7fff45d732e0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
It continues to fail to resolve symbols:
# perf report | grep stress-ng | head -5
9.50% stress-ng-cpu stress-ng [.] 0x0000000000021ac1
8.58% stress-ng-cpu stress-ng [.] 0x0000000000021ab4

3.93% stress-ng-cpu stress-ng [.] 0x0000000000021478
#
To overcome that we use:
# perf buildid-cache -v --add /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/stress-ng-0.07.29-10.fc31.x86_64.debug
Adding f2ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29 /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/stress-ng-0.07.29-10.fc31.x86_64.debug: Ok
#
# ls -la /root/.debug/.build-id/f2/ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29/elf

#
Now it finally works:
# perf report | grep stress-ng | head -5
23.59% stress-ng-cpu stress-ng [.] ackermann
23.33% stress-ng-cpu stress-ng [.] is_prime
17.36% stress-ng-cpu stress-ng [.] stress_cpu_sieve
6.08% stress-ng-cpu stress-ng [.] stress_cpu_correlate
3.55% stress-ng-cpu stress-ng [.] queens_try
#
I'll make sure that it looks for the build-id keyed files in both the
"host" namespace (the namespace the user running 'perf record' was a the
time of the recording) and in the container namespace, as it shouldn't
matter where a content based key lookup finds the ELF file to use in
resolving symbols, etc.

The event group feature links relevant hist entries among events so that
they can be displayed together. During the link process, each hist
entry in non-leader events is connected to a hist entry in the leader
event. This is done in order of events specified in the command line so
it assumes that events are linked in the order.
But 'perf top' can break the assumption since it does the link process
multiple times. For example, a hist entry can be in the third event
only at first so it's linked after the leader. Some time later, second
event has a hist entry for it and it'll be linked after the entry of the
third event.
This makes the code compilicated to deal with such unordered entries.
This patch simply unlink all the entries after it's printed so that they
can assume the correct order after the repeated link process. Also it'd
be easy to deal with decaying old entries IMHO.

In order to keep libperf simple, we switch 'u64/u32/u16/u8' types used
events to their generic '__u*' versions.
