COMM events are not generated in the context of a guest machine, so the
thread name is never set for the VMM process. For example, the qemu-kvm
name applies to the process in the host machine, not the guest machine.
So, samples for guest machines are currently displayed as:
99.67% :5671 [unknown] [g] 0xffffffff81366b41
where 5671 is the pid of the VMM. With this patch the samples in the guest
machine are shown as:
18.43% [guest/5671] [unknown] [g] 0xffffffff810d68b7

The min configs are saved in a perl hash called force_configs, and this
hash is used to add configs to the .config file. But it was not being
reset between tests and a min config from a previous test would affect
the min config of the next test causing undesirable results.
Reset the force_config hash at the start of each test.

Under some conditions, c1% was displayed as very large number,
much higher than 100%.
c1% is not measured, it is derived as "that, which is left over"
from other counters. However, the other counters are not collected
atomically, and so it is possible for c1% to be calaculagted as
a small negative number -- displayed as very large positive.
There was a check for mperf vs tsc for this already,
but it needed to also include the other counters
that are used to calculate c1.

Measuring large profoundly-idle configurations
requires turbostat to be more lightweight.
Otherwise, the operation of turbostat itself
can interfere with the measurements.
This re-write makes turbostat topology aware.
Hardware is accessed in "topology order".
Redundant hardware accesses are deleted.
Redundant output is deleted.
Also, output is buffered and
local RDTSC use replaces remote MSR access for TSC.
From a feature point of view, the output
looks different since redundant figures are absent.
Also, there are now -c and -p options -- to restrict
output to the 1st thread in each core, and the 1st
thread in each package, respectively. This is helpful
to reduce output on big systems, where more detail
than the "-s" system summary is desired.
Finally, periodic mode output is now on stdout, not stderr.
Turbostat v2 is also slightly more robust in
handling run-time CPU online/offline events,
as it now checks the actual map of on-line cpus rather
than just the total number of on-line cpus.

Usually the target is booted into a dependable kernel when a test
starts. The test will install the test kernel and reboot the box. But
there may be a time that the kernel is running an unreliable kernel and
the reboot may crash.
Have ktest detect crashes on a reboot and force a power-cycle instead.
This can usually happen if a test kernel was installed to run manual
tests, but the user forgot to reboot to the known good kernel.

With a name like 'oldnoconfig' one may think that the config generated
would disable all configs that were not defined (selecting "no" for all
options). But this is not the case. It selects the default. If a config
has a 'default y', then it is added if not specified.
This broke the config bisect, because options not specified by a config
will just use the default, where it expected to turn off. This caused an
option to be enabled that disabled an option that would break the build.
The end result was that we never found the bad config at the end of the
test.
Instead of using 'make oldnoconfig', ktest now builds the options it
expects enabled and disabled. When it turns off an option, it will no
longer remove it, but actually set it to:
# CONFIG_FOO is not set.

The config-bisect can take a bad config and bisect it down to find out
what config actually breaks the config. But as all tests will apply a
minconfig (defined by a user) to apply before booting, it is possible
that the minconfig could actually make the bad config work (minconfigs
can disable configs). The end result is that the config bisect test will
not find a config that breaks. This can be rather frustrating to the
user.
The CONFIG_BISECT_CHECK option, when set to 1, will make sure that the
bad config (with the minconfig applied) still fails before trying to
bisect.
And yes, I did get burned by this.

In order to let the user add commands before and after ktest runs, the

The PRE_TEST and POST_TEST will be run befor and after (respectively)

The __read_token() function has some duplicated code to handle
internal buffer overflow. Factor them out to new extend_token().
According to the man pages of realloc/free(3), they can handle NULL

On 32 bit systems, a conversion of the trace_printk format string
"%lu" -> "%llu" is intended (similar for %lx etc.) when a trace was
taken on a machine with 64 bit long integers. However, the current
code computes the bogus transformation "%lu" -> "%u". Fix this.
Besides that, the transformation is only required on systems that don't
use 64 bits for long integers natively.

When %pM is used, the arg value must be a 6 byte character that will
be printed as a 6 byte MAC address. But the code does a break over the
main code which updates the current processing arg to point to the
next arg. If there are other print arguments after a %pM, they will be
off by one. The next arg will still be processing the %pM arg.

As Namhyung Kim pointed, there are confused namings and descriptions of words
"cycle" and "clock" in mem-memset.c and mem-memcpy.c.
With the option "-c" (or "--clock", now renamed as "--cycle"), mem subsystem
measures cost of memset() and memcpy() with cpu-cycles event.
But current mem subsystem source code contains lots of confused variable
namings and descriptions with "clock" (e.g. the variable use_clock). This is a
very bad style because there is another software event named "cpu-clock". This
patch replaces wrong usage of "clock" to "cycle".

Commit 743eb86865 reworked when the
machines were created. Prior to this commit guest machines could be
created in perf_event__process_kernel_mmap() while processing kernel
MMAP events. This commit assumes that the machines exist by the time
perf_session_deliver_event is called (e.g., during processing of build
id events) - which is not always correct.
One example is the use of default guest args (--guestkallsyms and
--guestmodules) for short times where no samples hit within a guest
module. For this case no build id is added to the file header. No build
id == no machine created. That leads to the next example -- the use of
no-buildid (-B) on the record for all perf-kvm invocations. In both
cases perf report dies with a SEGFAULT of the form:
