Add the perf_mmap struct to libperf. The definition is added into: include/internal/mmap.h which is not to be included by users, but shared within perf and libperf. Committer notes: Remove unnecessary includes from tools/perf/lib/include/internal/mmap.h, those will be readded as they become necessary, later in the series.

As this isn't used at all in mmap.h but in evlist.h, so to cut down the header dependency tree, move it to where it is used. Also add mmap.h to the places using it but previously getting it indirectly via evlist.h. Add missing pthread.h to evlist.h, as it has a pthread_t struct member and was getting the header via mmap.h. Noticed while processing a Jiri's libperf batch touching mmap.h, where almost everything gets rebuilt because evlist.h is so popular, so cut down't this rebuild the world party.

All traceevent plugins code is moved to tools/lib/traceevent/plugins subdirectory. It makes traceevent implementation in trace-cmd and in kernel tree consistent. There is no changes in the way libtraceevent and plugins are compiled and installed.

Now that the default perf_events paranoid level is set to 2, a regular user cannot monitor kernel level activity anymore. As such, with the following cmdline: $ perf record -e cycles date The perf tool first tries cycles:uk but then falls back to cycles:u as can be seen in the perf report --header-only output: cmdline : /export/hda3/tmp/perf.tip record -e cycles ls event : name = cycles:u, , id = { 436186, ... } This is okay as long as there is way to learn the priv level was changed internally by the tool. But consider a similar example: $ perf record -b -e cycles date Error: You may not have permission to collect stats. Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid, which controls use of the performance events system by unprivileged users (without CAP_SYS_ADMIN). ... Why is that treated differently given that the branch sampling inherits the priv level of the first event in this case, i.e., cycles:u? It turns out that the branch sampling code is more picky and also checks exclude_hv. In the fallback path, perf record is setting exclude_kernel = 1, but it does not change exclude_hv. This does not seem to match the restriction imposed by paranoid = 2. This patch fixes the problem by forcing exclude_hv = 1 in the fallback for paranoid=2. With this in place: $ perf record -b -e cycles date cmdline : /export/hda3/tmp/perf.tip record -b -e cycles ls event : name = cycles:u, , id = { 436847, ... } And the command succeeds as expected. V2 fix a white space. Committer testing: After aplying the patch we get: [acme@quaco ~]$ perf record -b -e cycles date WARNING: Kernel address maps (/proc/{kallsyms,modules}) are restricted, check /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict and /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid.

This patch is to return error code of perf_new_session function on failure instead of NULL. Test Results: Before Fix: $ perf c2c report -input failed to open nput: No such file or directory $ echo $? 0 $ After Fix: $ perf c2c report -input failed to open nput: No such file or directory $ echo $? 254 $ Committer notes: Fix 'perf tests topology' case, where we use that TEST_ASSERT_VAL(..., session), i.e. we need to pass zero in case of failure, which was the case before when NULL was returned by perf_session__new() for failure, but now we need to negate the result of IS_ERR(session) to respect that TEST_ASSERT_VAL) expectation of zero meaning failure.

Since add_probe_trace_event() can reuse tf->tevs[i] after calling clear_probe_trace_event(), this can make perf-probe crash if the 1st attempt of probe event finding fails to find an event argument, and the 2nd attempt fails to find probe point. E.g. $ perf probe -D "task_pid_nr tsk" Failed to find 'tsk' in this function. Failed to get entry address of warn_bad_vsyscall Segmentation fault (core dumped) Committer testing: After the patch: $ perf probe -D "task_pid_nr tsk" Failed to find 'tsk' in this function.

Fix to skip making a same probe address on given line. Since a DWARF line info contains several entries for one line with different column, perf probe will make a different probe on same address if user specifies a probe point by "function:line" or "file:line". e.g. $ perf probe -D kernel_read:8 p:probe/kernel_read_L8 kernel_read+39 p:probe/kernel_read_L8_1 kernel_read+39 This skips such duplicated probe addresses.
