The CPU map is in an "empty" (or not-applicable) state when monitoring
specific threads.
cpu_map__all() returns true if the CPU map is in this empty state (i.e
for the 'empty_cpu_map' or if we created the map via
cpu_map__dummy_new().
The name, cpu_map__all(), is misleading, because even when monitoring
all CPUs, (eg: perf record -a), cpu_map__all() returns false.
Rename cpu_map__all() to cpu_map__empty().

When perf tries to start a workload, it relies on a pipe which the
workload was blocked for reading. After closing the pipe on the parent,
the workload (child) can start the actual work via exec().
However, if another process was forked after creating a workload, this
mechanism cannot work since the other process (child) also inherits the
pipe, so that closing the pipe in parent cannot unblock the workload.
Fix it by using explicit write call can then closing it.
For similar reason, the pipe fd on parent should be marked as CLOEXEC so
that it can be closed after another child exec'ed.

Jiri reported hanging perf tests on latest acme's perf/core and bisected
it to 87f303a9f:
[jolsa@krava2 perf]$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid

[jolsa@krava2 perf]$ ./perf record -C 0 kill
Error:
You may not have permission to collect %sstats.
Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid:
-1 - Not paranoid at all
0 - Disallow raw tracepoint access for unpriv
1 - Disallow cpu events for unpriv
2 - Disallow kernel profiling for unpriv
Need to let default handling kickin for workload process.

This introduces the tools/lib/lk library, that will gradually have the
routines that now are used in tools/perf/ and other tools and that can
be shared.
Start by carving out debugfs routines for general use.

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.
The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

I am getting segfaults *after* the time sorting of perf samples where
the event type is off the charts:
(gdb) bt
\#0 0x0807b1b2 in hists__inc_nr_events (hists=0x80a99c4, type=1163281902) at util/hist.c:1225
\#1 0x08070795 in perf_session_deliver_event (session=0x80a9b90, event=0xf7a6aff8, sample=0xffffc318, tool=0xffffc520,
file_offset=0) at util/session.c:884
\#2 0x0806f9b9 in flush_sample_queue (s=0x80a9b90, tool=0xffffc520) at util/session.c:555
\#3 0x0806fc53 in process_finished_round (tool=0xffffc520, event=0x0, session=0x80a9b90) at util/session.c:645
This is bizarre because the event has already been processed once --
before it was added to the samples queue -- and the event was found to
be sane at that time.
There seem to be 2 causes:
1. perf_evlist__mmap_read updates the read location even though there
are outstanding references to events sitting in the mmap buffers via the
ordered samples queue.
2. There is a single evlist->event_copy for all evlist entries.
event_copy is used to handle an event wrapping at the mmap buffer
boundary.
This patch addresses the second problem - making event_copy local to
each perf_mmap. With this change my highly repeatable use case no longer
fails.
The first problem is much more complicated and will be the subject of a
future patch.

Fixing events attributes for groups defined via '{}'.
Currently 'enable_on_exec' attribute in record command and both
'disabled ' and 'enable_on_exec' attributes in stat command are set
based on the 'group' option. This eliminates proper setup for '{}'
defined groups as they don't set 'group' option.
Making above attributes values based on the 'evsel->leader' as this is
common to both group definition.
Moving perf_evlist__set_leader call within builtin-record ahead
perf_evlist__config_attrs call, because the latter needs possible group
leader links in place.

Just like was done for parse_events__set_leader.
Also we need to have the list_entry set_leader method in evlist.c so that we
don't grow another dep in the python binding:

Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: /home/acme/git/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: parse_events__set_leader
And also remove a pr_debug from evsel.c so that we avoid this one too:
# ~acme/git/linux/tools/perf/python/twatch.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

This patch adds a functionality that allows to create event groups
based on the way they are specified on the command line. Adding
functionality to the '{}' group syntax introduced in earlier patch.
The current '--group/-g' option behaviour remains intact. If you
specify it for record/stat/top command, all the specified events
become members of a single group with the first event as a group
leader.
With the new '{}' group syntax you can create group like:
# perf record -e '{cycles,faults}' ls
resulting in single event group containing 'cycles' and 'faults'
events, with cycles event as group leader.
All groups are created with regards to threads and cpus. Thus
recording an event group within a 2 threads on server with
4 CPUs will create 8 separate groups.
Examples (first event in brackets is group leader):
# 1 group (cpu-clock,task-clock)
perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock ls
perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock}' ls
# 2 groups (cpu-clock,task-clock) (minor-faults,major-faults)
perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock},{minor-faults,major-faults}' ls
# 1 group (cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults)
perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock -e minor-faults,major-faults ls
perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults}' ls
# 2 groups (cpu-clock,task-clock) (minor-faults,major-faults)
perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock} -e '{minor-faults,major-faults}' \
-e instructions ls
# 1 group
# (cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults,instructions)
perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock \
-e minor-faults,major-faults -e instructions ls perf record -e
'{cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults,instructions}' ls
It's possible to use standard event modifier for a group, which spans
over all events in the group and updates each event modifier settings,
for example:
# perf record -r '{faults:k,cache-references}:p'
resulting in ':kp' modifier being used for 'faults' and ':p' modifier
being used for 'cache-references' event.
