The symbol__disassemble() function uses shell to launch objdump and
filter its output via grep. Passing filenames by interpolating them into
the command line via "%s" may lead to problems if said filenames contain
special characters.
Instead, pass the filename as a command line argument where it is not
subject to any kind of interpretation, then use quoted shell
interpolation to build the strings we need safely.

Go over the tools/ files that are maintained in Arnaldo's tree and
fix common typos: half of them were in comments, the other half
in JSON files.
No change in functionality intended.
Committer notes:
This was split from a larger patch as there are code that is,
additionally, maintained outside the kernel tree, so to ease
cherry-picking and/or backporting, split this into multiple patches.
Just typos in comments, no need to backport, reducing the possibility of
possible backporting artifacts.

Starting with binutils 2.28, aarch64 objdump adds comments to the
disassembly output to show the alternative names of a condition code
[1].
It is assumed that commas in objdump comments could occur in other
arches now or in the future, so this fix is arch-independent.
The fix could have been done with arm64 specific jump__parse and
jump__scnprintf functions, but the jump__scnprintf instruction would
have to have its comment character be a literal, since the scnprintf
functions cannot receive a struct arch easily.
This inconvenience also applies to the generic jump__scnprintf, which is
why we add a raw_comment pointer to struct ins_operands, so the __parse
function assigns it to be re-used by its corresponding __scnprintf
function.
Example differences in 'perf annotate --stdio2' output on an aarch64
perf.data file:
BEFORE: → b.cs ffff200008133d1c <unwind_frame+0x18c> // b.hs, dffff7ecc47b
AFTER : ↓ b.cs 18c
BEFORE: → b.cc ffff200008d8d9cc <get_alloc_profile+0x31c> // b.lo, b.ul, dffff727295b
AFTER : ↓ b.cc 31c
The branch target labels 18c and 31c also now appear in the output:
BEFORE: add x26, x29, #0x80
AFTER : 18c: add x26, x29, #0x80
BEFORE: add x21, x21, #0x8
AFTER : 31c: add x21, x21, #0x8
The Fixes: tag below is added so stable branches will get the update; it
doesn't necessarily mean that commit was broken at the time, rather it
didn't withstand the aarch64 objdump update.
Tested no difference in output for sample x86_64, power arch perf.data files.

Add --percent-type option to set annotation percent type from following
choices:
global-period, local-period, global-hits, local-hits
Examples:
$ perf annotate --percent-type period-local --stdio | head -1
Percent | Source code ... es, percent: local period)
$ perf annotate --percent-type hits-local --stdio | head -1
Percent | Source code ... es, percent: local hits)
$ perf annotate --percent-type hits-global --stdio | head -1
Percent | Source code ... es, percent: global hits)
$ perf annotate --percent-type period-global --stdio | head -1
Percent | Source code ... es, percent: global period)
The local/global keywords set if the percentage is computed in the scope
of the function (local) or the whole data (global).
The period/hits keywords set the base the percentage is computed on -
the samples period or the number of samples (hits).

We have more current function tto get the title for annotation,
which is hists__scnprintf_title. They both have same output as
far as the annotation's header line goes.
They differ in counting of the nr_samples, hists__scnprintf_title
provides more accurate number based on the setup of the
symbol_conf.filter_relative variable.
Plus it also displays any uid/thread/dso/socket filters/zooms
if there are set any, which annotation__scnprintf_samples_period
does not.

Making it a bit more robust, this took place here when a sample appeared
right after:
ffffffff8a925000 D __nosave_end
And before the next considered symbol, which, using kallsyms make us
over guess the size of __nosave_end, and then the sequence:
hist_entry__inc_addr_samples ->
symbol__inc_addr_samples ->
symbol__hists ->
annotated_source__alloc_histograms
Ends up not liking to allocate gigabytes of ram for annotation...
This will be alleviated by considering BSS symbols, which we should but
don't so far, and then we should investigate those samples further.
The testcase was to have:
perf top -e cycles/call-graph=fp/,cache-misses/call-graph=dwarf/,instructions
Running for a while till it segfaulted trying to access NULL notes->src->histograms.

When we perform the following command lines:

$ perf annotate main --stdio
The output shows only the first event, "cycles" and the displaying

The issue is that the value of the 'nr_percent' variable is hardcoded to
1. This patch fixes it.
With this patch, the output is:

To match what is shown in the main 'perf report/top' title lines, i.e.
if a group is being shown, either a real group (recorded with "-e
'{a,b,c}') or a forced group (using 'perf report --group' for a
perf.data file recorded without {}) we will show multiple columns,
one per event, but we were failing to show the group details, so, for:
# perf report --header-only | grep cmdline
# cmdline : /home/acme/bin/perf record -e {cycles,instructions,cache-misses}
# perf report --group
The first line was showing just "cycles", now it shows the correct line,
which is:
