Recently, Arnaldo fixed global vs event specific --max-stack usage with
commit bd3dda9ab0fb ("perf trace: Allow overriding global --max-stack
per event"). This commit is having a regression when we don't use
--max-stack at all with perf trace. Ex,

  $ ./perf trace record -g ls
  $ ./perf trace -i perf.data
     0.076 ( 0.002 ms): ls/9109 brk(
     0.196 ( 0.008 ms): ls/9109 access(filename: 0x9f998b70, mode: R
     0.209 ( 0.031 ms): ls/9109 open(filename: 0x9f998978, flags: CLOEXEC

This is missing call-traces.
After patch:

  $ ./perf trace -i perf.data
     0.076 ( 0.002 ms): ls/9109 brk(
                                do_syscall_trace_leave ([kernel.kallsyms])
                                [0] ([unknown])
                                syscall_exit_work ([kernel.kallsyms])
                                brk (/usr/lib64/ld-2.17.so)
                                _dl_sysdep_start (/usr/lib64/ld-2.17.so)

<title>perf trace: Do not print from time delta for interrupted syscall lines</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://universe.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel/commit/?id=522283fec7d3f312224360da48057e923ee22765'/>
<id>urn:sha1:522283fec7d3f312224360da48057e923ee22765</id>
<content type='text'>
We were calculating the delta from a in-flight syscall that got its
output interrupted by another syscall, which doesn't seem like useful
information, we will print the syscall duration (sys_exit - sys_enter)
when the raw_syscalls:sys_exit event happens.

The problem here is how we're consuming the multiple ring buffers,
without using the ordered_events code used by perf_session, which may
cause some reordering of syscalls for diferent CPUs, so just stop
printing that delta, to avoid things like:

  # trace --print-sample -p 9626 -e futex
  raw_syscalls:sys_enter 411967179.269 Timer 9609/9626 [2]
  raw_syscalls:sys_enter 411967179.213 file:// Content 9609/9609 [3]
     328.038 (18446744073709.496 ms): Timer/9626 futex(uaddr: 0x7fc0d4027044, op: WAIT|PRIV, utime: 0x7fc0b0ffdb50     ) ...
   raw_syscalls:sys_exit 411967179.225 file:// Content 9609/9609 [3]
     327.982 ( 0.012 ms): file:// Conten/9609 futex(uaddr: 0x7fc0d4027040, op: WAKE|PRIV, val: 1                    ) = 1

This is a bandaid, we should better try and use the ordered_events code,
possibly with some refactoring prep work, but for now at least we don't
show those false long deltas for the lines ending in '...'.

To help with debugging, like the interrupted out of order issue that
will be dealt with in the next patch in this series, changing the code
to deal with:

raw_syscalls:sys_enter 411967179.269 Timer 9609/9626 [2]
raw_syscalls:sys_enter 411967179.213 file:// Content 9609/9609 [3]

That long duration is the bug.

<title>perf trace: Obtain errno strings by using arch_syscalls__strerrno()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:092bd3cd7169085b09e4a5307de95e461d0581d7</id>
<content type='text'>
Replace the errno_to_name() from the audit-libs with the newly
introduced arch_syscalls__strerrno() function.

With this change:

1.  With replacing errno_to_name() from audit-libs, perf trace
    does no longer require audit-lib interfaces.

2. In addition to 1, the audit-libs dependency can be removed
   for architectures that support syscall tables in perf.
   This is achieved in a follow-up commit.

3. With the architecture specific errno number/name mapping,
   perf trace reports can work across architectures.

The per-event max-stack setting wasn't overriding the global --max-stack

<title>perf trace: Setup DWARF callchains for non-syscall events when --max-stack is used</title>

<id>urn:sha1:75d501171462d8624fd14a2baa474476d6745e95</id>
<content type='text'>
If we use:

	perf trace --max-stack=4

then the syscall events will use DWARF callchains, when available
(libunwind enabled in the build) and the printing will stop at 4 levels.

When we introduced support for tracepoint events this ended up not
applying for them, fix it.

Before:

  # perf trace --call-graph=dwarf --no-syscalls -e probe_libc:inet_pton ping -6 -c 1 ::1
  PING ::1(::1) 56 data bytes
  64 bytes from ::1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.058 ms

  --- ::1 ping statistics ---
  1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
  rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.058/0.058/0.058/0.000 ms
       0.000 probe_libc:inet_pton:(7fc6c2a16350))
  #

After:

  # perf trace --call-graph=dwarf --no-syscalls -e probe_libc:inet_pton ping -6 -c 1 ::1
  PING ::1(::1) 56 data bytes
  64 bytes from ::1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.087 ms

  --- ::1 ping statistics ---
  1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
  rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.087/0.087/0.087/0.000 ms
       0.000 probe_libc:inet_pton:(7fbf9a041350))

                                         gaih_inet.constprop.7 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)

The raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} were first supported in 'perf trace',
together with minor and major page faults, then we supported
--call-graph, then --max-stack, but when the other tracepoints got
supported, and bpf, etc, I forgot to make those global call-graph
settings apply to them.

Fix it by realizing that the global --max-stack and --call-graph
settings are done via:

        OPT_CALLBACK(0, "call-graph", &amp;trace.opts,
                     "record_mode[,record_size]", record_callchain_help,
                     &amp;record_parse_callchain_opt),

And then, when we go to parse the events in -e via:

        OPT_CALLBACK('e', "event", &amp;trace, "event",
                     "event/syscall selector. use 'perf list' to list available events",
                     trace__parse_events_option),

And trace__parse_sevents_option() calls:

                struct option o = OPT_CALLBACK('e', "event", &amp;trace-&gt;evlist, "event",
                                               "event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events",
                                               parse_events_option);
                err = parse_events_option(&amp;o, lists[0], 0);

parse_events_option() will override the global --call-graph and
--max-stack if the "call-graph" and/or "max-stack" terms are in the
event definition, such as in the probe_libc:inet_pton event in one of the
examples below (-e probe_libc:inet_pton/max-stack=2).

Same thing for --max-stack, the global one:

  #

And then setting up a global setting (dwarf, max-stack=4), that will
affect the raw_syscall:sys_enter for the 'sendto' syscall and that will
be overriden in the probe_libc:inet_pton call to just one entry.

  #

Install iputils-debuginfo to get those /usr/bin/ping addresses resolved,
those routines are not on its .dymsym nor .symtab :-)
