Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 9d04f17817 perf evsel: Allow specifying if the inherit bit should be set
As this is a per-cpu attribute, we can't set it up in advance and use it
for all the calls.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo f08199d314 perf evsel: Support event groups
The perf_evsel__open now have an extra boolean argument specifying if
event grouping is desired.

The first file descriptor created on a CPU becomes the group leader.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 0252208eb5 perf evsel: Support perf_evsel__open(cpus > 1 && threads > 1)
And a test for it:

[acme@felicio linux]$ perf test
 1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms: Ok
 2: detect open syscall event: Ok
 3: detect open syscall event on all cpus: Ok
[acme@felicio linux]$

Translating C the test does:

1. generates different number of open syscalls on each CPU
   by using sched_setaffinity
2. Verifies that the expected number of events is generated
   on each CPU

It works as expected.

Lin Ming 23a2f3ab46 perf tools: Pass whole attr to event selectors
Since commit 69aad6f1(perf tools: Introduce event selectors), only
perf_event_attr::type and ::config are passed to event selector, which
makes perf tool not work correctly.

For example, PEBS does not work because perf_event_attr::precise_ip is
not passed to the syscall.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 4eed11d5e2 perf evsel: Auto allocate resources needed for some methods
While writing the first user of the routines created from the ad-hoc
routines in the existing builtins I noticed that the resulting set of
calls was too long, reduce it by doing some best effort allocations.

Tools that need to operate on multiple threads and cpus should pre-allocate
enough resources by explicitely calling the perf_evsel__alloc_{fd,counters}
methods.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 48290609c0 perf evsel: Introduce per cpu and per thread open helpers
Abstracting away the loops needed to create the various event fd handlers.

The users have to pass a confiruged perf->evsel.attr field, which is already
usable after perf_evsel__new (constructor) time, using defaults.

Comes out of the ad-hoc routines in builtin-stat, that now uses it.

Fixed a small silly bug where we were die()ing before killing our
children, dysfunctional family this one 8-)

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo c52b12ed25 perf evsel: Steal the counter reading routines from stat
Making them hopefully generic enough to be used in 'perf test',

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 69aad6f1ee perf tools: Introduce event selectors
Out of ad-hoc code and global arrays with hard coded sizes.

This is the first step on having a library that will be first
used on regression tests in the 'perf test' tool.
