Pull more perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
 "Fixes:
   - Fixes for 'perf bench numa'.

   - Always memset source before memcpy in 'perf bench mem'.

   - Quote CC and CXX for their arguments to fix build in environments
     using those variables to pass more than just the compiler names.

   - Fix module symbol processing, addressing regression detected via
     "perf test".

   - Allow multiple probes in record+script_probe_vfs_getname.sh 'perf
     test' entry.

  Improvements:
   - Add script to autogenerate socket family name id->string table from
     copy of kernel header, used so far in 'perf trace'.

   - 'perf ftrace' improvements to provide similar options for this
     utility so that one can go from 'perf record', 'perf trace', etc to
     'perf ftrace' just by changing the name of the subcommand.

   - Prefer new "sched:sched_waking" trace event when it exists in 'perf
     sched' post processing.

   - Update POWER9 metrics to utilize other metrics.

   - Fall back to querying debuginfod if debuginfo not found locally.

  Miscellaneous:
   - Sync various kvm headers with kernel sources"

all arch: remove system call sys_sysctl

2020-08-15T02:56:56+00:00

Since commit 61a47c1ad3a4dc ("sysctl: Remove the sysctl system call"),
sys_sysctl is actually unavailable: any input can only return an error.

We have been warning about people using the sysctl system call for years
and believe there are no more users.  Even if there are users of this
interface if they have not complained or fixed their code by now they
probably are not going to, so there is no point in warning them any
longer.

So completely remove sys_sysctl on all architectures.

And improve a bit the -m description to state that a B/K/M/G suffix is
needed.

perf build-ids: Fall back to debuginfod query if debuginfo not found

2020-08-14T12:51:14+00:00

During a perf-record, use the -ldebuginfod API to query a debuginfod
server, should the debug data not be found in the usual system
locations.  If successful, the usual $HOME/.debug dir is populated.

Tested with:

  $ find .
  .
  ./ctags-debuginfo-5.8-26.fc31.x86_64.rpm
  ./usr
  ./usr/lib
  ./usr/lib/debug
  ./usr/lib/debug/.build-id
  ./usr/lib/debug/.build-id/ca

  ./usr/lib/debug/usr
  ./usr/lib/debug/usr/bin
  ./usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/ctags-5.8-26.fc31.x86_64.debug

  $ debuginfod  -F .
  ...

  $ rm -rf ~/.debug/ ; mkdir ~/.debug

  $ perf record make tags
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j8' parallel build
    GEN      tags
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.107 MB perf.data (1483 samples) ]

  $ find ~/.debug | grep ctags
  /home/jolsa/.debug/usr/bin/ctags

  $ rm -rf ~/.debug/ ; mkdir ~/.debug

  $ DEBUGINFOD_URLS=http://localhost:8002 perf record make tags
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j8' parallel build
    GEN      tags
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.108 MB perf.data (1531 samples) ]

  $ find ~/.debug | grep ctag
  /home/jolsa/.debug/usr/bin/ctags
  /home/jolsa/.debug/usr/bin/ctags/ca46f6ae6a0cee57d85abc1d461c49074248908d

  /home/jolsa/.debug/usr/bin/ctags/ca46f6ae6a0cee57d85abc1d461c49074248908d/probes

Note the 'debug' file is created in the last run.

Note that currently the debuginfo data are downloaded only on record path,
we still need add this support to perf build-id/report.. and test ;-)

perf bench numa: Remove dead code in parse_nodes_opt()

In the function parse_nodes_opt(), the statement "return 0;" is dead
code, remove it.

perf stat: Update POWER9 metrics to utilize other metrics

2020-08-14T12:38:53+00:00

These changes take advantage of the new capability added in merge commit
00e4db51259a5f936fec1424b884f029479d3981 "Allow using computed metrics
in calculating other metrics".

The net is a simplification of the expressions for a handful of metrics,
but no functional change.

2020-08-14T12:36:45+00:00

Now the __cmd_ftrace() becomes a bit long. This moves the trace option
setting code to a separate function set_tracing_options().
