Use conditional variable logic to synchronize between the reading and
processing threads. Currently it's done by having mutex around rotation
code.
Using a POSIX cond variable to sync both threads after queues rotation:
Process thread:
- Detects data
- Switches queues
- Sets rotate variable
- Waits in pthread_cond_wait()
Read thread:
- Detects rotate is set
- Kicks the process thread with a pthread_cond_signal()
After this rotation is safely completed and both threads can continue
with the new queue.

Add a new thread that takes care of the hist creating to alleviate the
main reader thread so it can keep perf mmaps served in time so that we
reduce the possibility of losing events.
The 'perf top' command now spawns 2 extra threads, the data processing
is the following:
1) The main thread reads the data from mmaps and queues them to
ordered events object;
2) The processing threads takes the data from the ordered events
object and create initial histogram;
3) The GUI thread periodically sorts the initial histogram and
presents it.
Passing the data between threads 1 and 2 is done by having 2 ordered
events queues. One is always being stored by thread 1 while the other is
flushed out in thread 2.
Passing the data between threads 2 and 3 stays the same as was initially
for threads 1 and 3.

Multi AIO trace writing allows caching more kernel data into userspace
memory postponing trace writing for the sake of overall profiling data
thruput increase. It could be seen as kernel data buffer extension into
userspace memory.
With an --aio option value different from 0 (default value is 1) the
tool has capability to cache more and more data into user space along
with delegating spill to AIO.
That allows avoiding to suspend at record__aio_sync() between calls of
record__mmap_read_evlist() and increases profiling data thruput at the
cost of userspace memory.

When using the -x option, perf stat prints CSV-style output with one
event per line. For each event, it prints the count, the unit, the
event name, the cgroup, and a bunch of other event specific fields (such
as insn per cycles).
When you use CSV-style mode, you expect a normalized output where each
event is printed with the same number of fields regardless of what it is
so it can easily be imported into a spreadsheet or parsed.
For instance, if an event does not have a unit, then print an empty
field for it.
Although this approach was implemented for the unit, it was not for the
cgroup.
When mixing cgroup and non-cgroup events, then non-cgroup events would
not show an empty field, instead the next field was printed, make
columns not line up correctly.
This patch fixes the cgroup output issues by forcing an empty field
for non-cgroup events as soon as one event has cgroup.
Before:
<not counted> @ @cycles @foo @ 0 @100.00@@
2531614 @ @cycles @6420922@100.00@ @
foo cgroup lines up with time_running!
After:
<not counted> @ @cycles @foo @0 @100.00@@
2594834 @ @cycles @ @5287372 @100.00@@
Fields line up.

Commit 0aa802a794 ("perf stat: Get rid of extra clock display
function") introduced scale and unit for clock events. Thus,
perf_stat__update_shadow_stats() now saves scaled values of clock events
in msecs, instead of original nsecs. But while calculating values of
shadow stats we still consider clock event values in nsecs. This results
in a wrong shadow stat values. Ex,
# ./perf stat -e task-clock,cycles ls
<SNIP>
2.60 msec task-clock:u # 0.877 CPUs utilized
2,430,564 cycles:u # 1215282.000 GHz
Fix this by saving original nsec values for clock events in
perf_stat__update_shadow_stats(). After patch:
# ./perf stat -e task-clock,cycles ls
<SNIP>
3.14 msec task-clock:u # 0.839 CPUs utilized
3,094,528 cycles:u # 0.985 GHz

Perf can take minutes to parse an image when -ffunction-section is used.
This is especially true with the kernel image when it is compiled this
way, which is the arm64 default since the patcheset "Enable deadcode
elimination at link time".
Perf organize maps using a rbtree. Whenever perf finds a new symbols, it
first searches this rbtree for the map it belongs to, by strcmp()'aring
section names. When it finds the map with the right name, it uses it to
add the symbol. With a usual image there aren't so many maps but when
using -ffunction-section there's basically one map per function. With
the kernel image that's north of 40,000 maps. For most symbols perf has
to parses the entire rbtree to eventually create a new map and add it.
Consequently perf spends most of the time browsing a rbtree that keeps
getting larger.
This performance fix introduces a secondary rbtree that indexes maps
based on the section name.

The Compiled Method Load Record (cmlr) is JDK specific interface to
access JVM stack info. This makes the jvmti agent code not compile under
another jdk, which does not support that.
Separating jvmti cmlr check into special feature check, and adding
HAVE_JVMTI_CMLR macro to indicate that.
Mark cmlr code in jvmti/libjvmti.c with HAVE_JVMTI_CMLR, so we can
compile it on system without cmlr support.
This change makes the jvmti compile with java-1.8.0-ibm package. It's
without the line numbers support, but the rest works.
Adding NO_JVMTI_CMLR compile variable for testing.

The perf tools cannot find the proper event list for the Cascadelake
server. Because the Cascadelake server and the Skylake server have the
same CPU model number, which are used by the perf tools to find the
event list.
The stepping for Skylake server is up to 4.
The stepping for Cascadelake server starts from 5.
The stepping can be used to distinguish between them.
The stepping is added in get_cpuid_str().
The stepping information for Skylake server is updated in mapfile.csv.
A x86 specific strcmp_cpuid_cmp() function is added to handle two CPUID
formats in mapfile.csv, "vendor-family-model-stepping" and
"vendor-family-model":
- If a cpuid-regular-expression from the mapfile.csv using the new
stepping format, a cpuid-string generated on the machine must include
stepping. Otherwise, it is a mismatch.
- If the cpuid-regular-expression using the old non-stepping format,
the stepping in the cpuid-string will be ignored.
The script, using environment string "PERF_CPUID" without stepping on
Skylake server, will be broken. If so, users must fix their scripts.
