<title>perf llvm: Fix inadvertent file creation</title>

The LLVM template is first echo-ed into command_out and then
command_out executed. The echo surrounds the template with double
quotes, however, the template itself may contain quotes. This is
generally innocuous but in tools/perf/tests/bpf-script-test-prologue.c
we see:
...
SEC("func=null_lseek file-&gt;f_mode offset orig")
...
where the first double quote ends the double quote of the echo, then
the &gt; redirects output into a file called f_mode.

To avoid this inadvertent behavior substitute redirects and similar
characters to be ASCII control codes, then substitute the output in
the echo back again.

<title>perf bpf: Rename perf_include_dir to libbpf_include_dir</title>

As this is where we expect to find bpf/bpf_helpers.h, etc.

This needs more work to make it follow LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 usage, i.e. when
not using the system libbpf it should use the headers in the in-kernel
sources libbpf in tools/lib/bpf.

We need to do that anyway to avoid this mixup system libbpf and
in-kernel files, so we'll get this sorted out that way.

And this also may become moot as we move to using BPF skels for this
feature.

<title>perf trace: Raw augmented syscalls fix libbpf 1.0+ compatibility</title>

Don't use deprecated and now broken map style. Avoid use of
tools/perf/include/bpf/bpf.h and use the more regular BPF headers.

Committer notes:

Add /usr/include to the include path so that bpf/bpf_helpers.h can be
found, remove sys/socket.h, adding the sockaddr_storage definition, also
remove stdbool.h, both were preventing building the
augmented_raw_syscalls.c file with clang, revisit later.

Testing it:

Asking for syscalls that have string arguments:

<title>perf bpf: Convert legacy map definition to BTF-defined</title>

The libbpf is switching off support for legacy map definitions [1],
which will break the perf llvm tests.

Moving the base source map definition to BTF-defined, so we need
to use -g compile option for to add debug/BTF info.

<content type='text'>
A CI system might want to run all tests in verbose mode so that there is
enough information to diagnose issues. This LLVM test is the only test
that uses "-v" to signify to not skip the test if the preconditions
aren't met (LLVM isn't installed). This means that running the test in
verbose mode without LLVM installed causes a test failure.

For consistency with the other tests, remove this verbose/skip check. An
alternate solution would be to make _all_ tests not skip when run in
verbose mode, but I don't think that would be intuitive.

Also change the search_program() call to search_program_and_warn().
Previously the hint about installing LLVM was only printed by the actual
test because this check was skipped in verbose mode. To maintain the old
behaviour, the precondition check must also print the full warning.

Previous output:

  $ ./perf test llvm
  40: LLVM search and compile                                     :
  40.1: Basic BPF llvm compile                                    : Skip

  $ ./perf test -v llvm
  40: LLVM search and compile                                     :
  40.1: Basic BPF llvm compile                                    :

  Hint:	Try to install latest clang/llvm to support BPF. Check your $PATH
  ...
  test child finished with -1
  ---- end ----
  LLVM search and compile subtest 1: FAILED!

New output (non verbose mode is identical, verbose changes from fail to
skip):

  $ ./perf test llvm
  40: LLVM search and compile                                     :

The same warning is duplicated in two places so refactor it into a
single function "search_program_and_warn". This will be used a third
time in a later commit.

<title>perf llvm: Return -ENOMEM when asprintf() fails</title>

Zhihao sent a patch but it made llvm__compile_bpf() return what
asprintf() returns on error, which is just -1, but since this function
returns -errno, fix it by returning -ENOMEM for this case instead.

Fixes: cb76371441d098 ("perf llvm: Allow passing options to llc ...")
Fixes: 5eab5a7ee032ac ("perf llvm: Display eBPF compiling command ...")
