I.e. don't drop al->filtered entries, create the hist_entries and use
its ->filtered bitmap, that is kept with the same semantics for its
bitmap, leaving the filtering to be done at the hist_entry level, i.e.
in the UIs.
This will allow zooming in/out the filters.

Instead of bailing out as soon as we find a filter that applies, go on
checking all of them so that we can zoom in/out filters.
We also need to make sure we only update al->filtered after
thread__find_addr_map(), because there is where al->filtered gets
initialized to zero.
This will increase the cost of processing when all we don't need this
toggling, but will provide flexibility for the TUI and GTK+ interfaces,
that will incur in creating the hist_entries just once.

By turning the addr_location->filtered member from a boolean to a u8
bitmap, reusing (and extending) the hist_filter enum for that.
This patch doesn't change the logic at all, as it keeps the meaning of
al->filtered !0 to mean that the entry _was_ filtered, so no change in
how this value is interpreted needs to be done at this point.
This will be soon used in upcoming patches.

When trying to capture perf data on a system running spejbb2013, perf
hung for about 15 minutes. This is because it took that long to gather
about 10,000 thread maps and process them.
I don't think a user wants to wait that long.
Instead, recognize that thread maps are roughly equivalent to pid maps
and just quickly copy those instead.
To do this, I synthesize 'fork' events, this eventually calls
thread__fork() and copies the maps over.
The overhead goes from 15 minutes down to about a few seconds.

The for_each_bench() macro must check that the "benchmarks" field of a

collection in particular has a NULL "benchmarks" field (signifying that
it has no benchmarks to iterate over).
This fixes this NULL pointer dereference when running "perf bench all":

Currently if a process creates a bunch of threads using pthread_create
and then perf is run in system_wide mode, the mmaps for those threads
are not captured with a synthesized mmap event.
The reason is those threads are not visible when walking the /proc/
directory looking for /proc/<pid>/maps files. Instead they are
discovered using the /proc/<pid>/tasks file (which the synthesized comm
event uses).
This causes problems when a program is trying to map a data address to a
tid. Because the tid has no maps, the event is dropped. Changing the
program to look up using the pid instead of the tid, finds the correct
maps but creates ugly hacks in the program to carry the correct tid
around.
Fix this by moving the walking of the /proc/<pid>/tasks up a level (out
of the comm function) based on Arnaldo's suggestion.
Tweaked things a bit to special case the 'full' bit and 'guest' check.

Block a bunch of threads on a futex and requeue them on another, N at a

This program is particularly useful to measure the latency of nthread

Block a bunch of threads on a futex and wake them up, N at a time.
This program is particularly useful to measure the latency of nthread
wakeups in non-error situations: all waiters are queued and all wake
calls wakeup one or more tasks.

Introduce futexes to perf-bench and add a program that stresses and
measures the kernel's implementation of the hash table.
This is a multi-threaded program that simply measures the amount of
failed futex wait calls - we only want to deal with the hashing
overhead, so a negative return of futex_wait_setup() is enough to do the
trick.
An example run:
$ perf bench futex hash -t 32
Run summary [PID 10989]: 32 threads, each operating on 1024 [private] futexes for 10 secs.

If we call just:
perf bench numa mem
it will present the same output as:
perf bench numa mem -h
i.e. ask for instructions about what to run.
While that is kinda ok, using 'run all tests' as the default, i.e.
making 'no parms' be equivalent to:
perf bench numa mem -a
Will allow:
perf bench numa all
to actually do what is asked: i.e. run all the 'bench' tests, instead of
responding to that by asking what to do.
That, in turn, allows:
perf bench all
to actually complete, for the same reasons.
And after that, the tests that come after that, and that at some point
hit a NULL deref, will run, allowing me to reproduce a recently reported
problem.
That when you have the needed numa libraries, which wasn't the case for
the reporter, making me a bit confused after trying to reproduce his
report.
So make no parms mean -a.

When trying to map a bunch of instruction addresses to their respective
threads, I kept getting a lot of bogus entries [I forget the exact
reason as I patched my code months ago].
Looking through ip__resolve_ams, I noticed the check for
if (al.sym)
and realized, most times I have an al.map definition but sometimes an
al.sym is undefined. In the cases where al.sym is undefined, the loop
keeps going even though a valid al.map exists.
Modify this check to use the more reliable al.map. This fixed my bogus
entries.

When compiling perf tool code with gcc 4.4.7 I'm getting
following error:
CC util/session.o

util/session.c: In function ‘perf_session_deliver_event’:
tools/perf/util/include/linux/bitops.h:109: error: dereferencing pointer ‘p’ does break strict-aliasing rules

tools/perf/util/include/linux/bitops.h:101: note: initialized from here
make[1]: *** [util/session.o] Error 1
make: *** [util/session.o] Error 2
The aliased types here are u64 and unsigned long pointers, which is safe
for the find_first_bit processing.
This error shows up for me only for gcc 4.4 on 32bit x86, even for
-Wstrict-aliasing=3, while newer gcc are quiet and scream here for
-Wstrict-aliasing={2,1}. Looks like newer gcc changed the rules for
strict alias warnings.
The gcc documentation offers workaround for valid aliasing by using
__may_alias__ attribute:
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.4.0/gcc/Type-Attributes.html
Using this workaround for the find_first_bit function.

Stephane reported that perf report and annotate failed to process data
using lots of (> 500) shared libraries. It was because of the limit on
number of open files (ulimit -n).
Currently when perf loads a DSO, it'll look for normal and dynamic
symbol tables. And if it fails to find out both tables, it'll iterate
all of possible symtab types. But many of them are useless since they
have no additional information and the problem is that it's not closing
those files even though they're not used. Fix it.

The TUI of perf report and top support annotation, but stdio and GTK
don't. So it should be checked before calling hist_entry__inc_addr_
samples() to avoid wasting resources that will never be used.
perf annotate need it regardless of UI and sort keys, so the check
of whether to allocate resources should be on the tools that have
annotate as an option in the TUI, 'report' and 'top', not on the
function called by all of them.
It caused perf annotate on ppc64 to produce zero output, since the
buckets were not being allocated.

Factor NO_LIBDW_DWARF_UNWIND makefile variable and code that selects
default DWARf post unwinder based on detected features (libdw and
libunwind support)
If both are detected the libunwind is selected as default. Simple
'make' will try to add:
- libunwind unwinder if present
- libdw unwinder if present
- disable dwarf unwind if non of libunwind and libdw
libraries are present
If one of the DWARF unwind libraries is detected, message is displayed
which one (libunwind/libdw) is compiled in.
Examples:
- compile in libdw unwinder if present:
$ make NO_LIBUNWIND=1
- compile in libdw (with libdw installation directory) unwinder if present:
$ make LIBDW_DIR=/opt/elfutils/ NO_LIBUNWIND=1

New Makefile variable NO_LIBDW_DWARF_UNWIND was added to control its
