In verbose level 2, errors returned by libdw are reported in most cases,
but not when calling dwfl_attach_state.
Since elfutils v 0.160 (2014), dwfl_attach_state sets the error code to
report failure cause. On failure, log the reported error.

Current 'perf probe' converts the type of array-elements incorrectly. It
always converts the types as a pointer of array. This passes the "array"
type DIE to the type converter so that it can get correct "element of
array" type DIE from it.
E.g.
====
$ cat hello.c
#include <stdio.h>
void foo(int a[])
{
printf("%d\n", a[1]);
}
void main()
{
int a[3] = {4, 5, 6};
printf("%d\n", a[0]);
foo(a);
}
$ gcc -g hello.c -o hello
$ perf probe -x ./hello -D "foo a[1]"
====
Without this fix, above outputs
====
p:probe_hello/foo /tmp/hello:0x4d3 a=+4(-8(%bp)):u64
====
The "u64" means "int *", but a[1] is "int".
With this,
====
p:probe_hello/foo /tmp/hello:0x4d3 a=+4(-8(%bp)):s32
====
So, "int" correctly converted to "s32"

There is a bug where when using 'perf annotate timerqueue_add' the
target for its only routine called with the 'callq' instruction,
'rb_insert_color', doesn't get resolved from its address when parsing
that 'callq' instruction.
That symbol resolution works when using 'perf report --tui' and then
doing annotation for 'timerqueue_add' from there, the vmlinux
dso->symbols rb_tree somehow gets in a state that we can't find that
address, that is a bug that has to be further investigated.
But since the objdump output has the function name, i.e. the raw objdump
disassembled line looks like:
So, before:
# perf annotate timerqueue_add
│ mov %rbx,%rdi
│ mov %rbx,(%rdx)
│ → callq *ffffffff8184dc80
│ mov 0x8(%rbp),%rdx
│ test %rdx,%rdx
│ ↓ je 67
# perf report
│ mov %rbx,%rdi
│ mov %rbx,(%rdx)
│ → callq rb_insert_color
│ mov 0x8(%rbp),%rdx
│ test %rdx,%rdx
│ ↓ je 67
And after both look the same:
# perf annotate timerqueue_add
│ mov %rbx,%rdi
│ mov %rbx,(%rdx)
│ → callq rb_insert_color
│ mov 0x8(%rbp),%rdx
│ test %rdx,%rdx
│ ↓ je 67
From 'perf report' one can annotate and navigate to that 'rb_insert_color'
function, but not directly from 'perf annotate timerqueue_add', that
remains to be investigated and fixed.

The gcc 8 compiler won't compile the python extension code with the
following errors (one example):
python.c:830:15: error: cast between incompatible function types from \
‘PyObject * (*)(struct pyrf_evsel *, PyObject *, PyObject *)’ \
uct _object * (*)(struct pyrf_evsel *, struct _object *, struct _object *)’} to \
‘PyObject * (*)(PyObject *, PyObject *)’ {aka ‘struct _object * (*)(struct _objeuct \
_object *)’} [-Werror=cast-function-type]
.ml_meth = (PyCFunction)pyrf_evsel__open,
The problem with the PyMethodDef::ml_meth callback is that its type is
determined based on the PyMethodDef::ml_flags value, which we set as
METH_VARARGS | METH_KEYWORDS.
That indicates that the callback is expecting an extra PyObject* arg, and is
actually PyCFunctionWithKeywords type, but the base PyMethodDef::ml_meth type
stays PyCFunction.
Previous gccs did not find this, gcc8 now does. Fixing this by silencing this
warning for python.c build.
Commiter notes:
Do not do that for CC=clang, as it breaks the build in some clang
versions, like the ones in fedora up to fedora27:
fedora:25:error: unknown warning option '-Wno-cast-function-type'; did you mean '-Wno-bad-function-cast'? [-Werror,-Wunknown-warning-option]
fedora:26:error: unknown warning option '-Wno-cast-function-type'; did you mean '-Wno-bad-function-cast'? [-Werror,-Wunknown-warning-option]
fedora:27:error: unknown warning option '-Wno-cast-function-type'; did you mean '-Wno-bad-function-cast'? [-Werror,-Wunknown-warning-option]
#
those have:
clang version 3.9.1 (tags/RELEASE_391/final)
The one in rawhide accepts that:
clang version 6.0.0 (tags/RELEASE_600/final)

With gcc 8 we get new set of snprintf() warnings that breaks the
compilation, one example:
tests/mem.c: In function ‘check’:
tests/mem.c:19:48: error: ‘%s’ directive output may be truncated writing \
up to 99 bytes into a region of size 89 [-Werror=format-truncation=]
snprintf(failure, sizeof failure, "unexpected %s", out);
The gcc docs says:
To avoid the warning either use a bigger buffer or handle the
function's return value which indicates whether or not its output
has been truncated.
Given that all these warnings are harmless, because the code either
properly fails due to uncomplete file path or we don't care for
truncated output at all, I'm changing all those snprintf() calls to
scnprintf(), which actually 'checks' for the snprint return value so the
gcc stays silent.

Stephane reported a problem with forced leader in pipe mode, where
report does not force the group output. The reason is that we don't
force the leader in pipe mode.
This patch adds HEADER_LAST_FEATURE mark to have a point where we have
all events and features received, and force the group if requested.

We were using a local buffer with an arbitrary size, that would have to
