The s390 architecture maps sys_mmap (nr 90) into sys_old_mmap. For this
reason perf trace can't find the proper syscall event to get args format
from and displays it wrongly as 'continued'.
To fix that fill the "alias" field with "old_mmap" for trace's mmap record
to get the correct translation.

To test it, build samples/statx/test_statx, which I did as:
$ make headers_install
$ cc -I ~/git/linux/usr/include samples/statx/test-statx.c -o /tmp/statx
And then use perf trace on it:
# perf trace -e statx /tmp/statx /etc/passwd
statx(/etc/passwd) = 0

This one also starts moving the beautifiers from files directly included
in builtin-trace.c to separate objects + a beauty.h header with
prototypes, so that we can add test cases in tools/perf/tests/ to fire
syscalls with various arguments and then get them intercepted as
syscalls:sys_enter_foo or raw_syscalls:sys_enter + sys_exit to then
format and check that the formatted output is the one we expect.

Which may happen when we start a tracing session and a thread is waiting
for something like "poll" to return, in which case we better print "?"
both for the syscall entry timestamp and for the duration.
E.g.:
Tracing existing mutt session:
# perf trace -p `pidof mutt`
? ( ? ): mutt/17135 ... [continued]: poll()) = 1
0.027 ( 0.013 ms): mutt/17135 read(buf: 0x7ffcb3c42cef, count: 1) = 1
0.047 ( 0.008 ms): mutt/17135 poll(ufds: 0x7ffcb3c42c50, nfds: 1, timeout_msecs: 1000) = 1
0.059 ( 0.008 ms): mutt/17135 read(buf: 0x7ffcb3c42cef, count: 1) = 1
<SNIP>
Before it would print a large number because we'd do:
ttrace->entry_time - trace->base_time
And entry_time would be 0, while base_time would be the timestamp for
the first event 'perf trace' reads, oops.

Introduce a new option to record PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES events emitted
by the kernel when fork, clone, setns or unshare are invoked. And update
perf-record documentation with the new option to record namespace
events.
Committer notes:
Combined it with a later patch to allow printing it via 'perf report -D'
and be able to test the feature introduced in this patch. Had to move
here also perf_ns__name(), that was introduced in another later patch.
Also used PRIu64 and PRIx64 to fix the build in some enfironments wrt:
util/event.c:1129:39: error: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 6 has type 'long long unsigned int' [-Werror=format=]
ret += fprintf(fp, "%u/%s: %lu/0x%lx%s", idx
^
Testing it:
# perf record --namespaces -a
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.083 MB perf.data (423 samples) ]
#
# perf report -D

Makes it easier to specify both events and syscalls (to be formatter
strace-like), i.e. previously one would have to do:
# perf trace -e nanosleep --event sched:sched_switch usleep 1
Now it is possible to do:
# perf trace -e nanosleep,sched:sched_switch usleep 1
0.000 ( 0.021 ms): usleep/17962 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffdedd61ec0) ...
0.021 ( ): sched:sched_switch:usleep:17962 [120] S ==> swapper/1:0 [120])
0.000 ( 0.066 ms): usleep/17962 ... [continued]: nanosleep()) = 0
#
The old style --expr and using both -e and --event continues to work.

Instead of the one when another syscall takes place while another is being
processed (in another CPU, but we show it serialized, so need to "interrupt"
the other), and also when finally showing the sys_enter + sys_exit + duration,
where we were showing the sample->time for the sys_exit, duh.

In the perf wiki todo-list[1], there is an entry regarding initial-delay
and 'perf trace'; the following small patch tries to fulfill this point.
It has been generated against the branch tip/perf/core.
It has only been implemented in the "trace__run" case.
Ex.:
$ sudo strace -- ./perf trace --delay 5 sleep 1 2>&1
...
fcntl(7, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 0
ioctl(7, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID, 0x7ffc8fd35718) = 0
ioctl(11, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT, 0x7) = 0
fcntl(11, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 0
ioctl(11, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID, 0x7ffc8fd35718) = 0
write(6, "\0", 1) = 1
close(6) = 0
nanosleep({0, 5000000}, NULL) = 0 # DELAY OF 5 MS BEFORE ENABLING THE EVENTS
ioctl(3, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, 0) = 0
ioctl(4, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, 0) = 0

Both return errno, show the string associated then.
More work needed to capture the sched_attr arg to beautify it in turn,
probably using BPF.

After the patch, for this sched_attr, all other parms are zero, so not
shown:

.size = sizeof(attr),
.sched_policy = SCHED_DEADLINE,
.sched_runtime = 10 * USECS_PER_SEC,

The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that
returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else.
But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the
function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided
buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that
instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine
Linux, where musl libc is used.
So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU
interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that
users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is
returned.
