commit 77f18153c080855e1c3fb520ca31a4e61530121d upstream.

With gcc 8 we get new set of snprintf() warnings that breaks the
compilation, one example:

  tests/mem.c: In function ‘check’:
  tests/mem.c:19:48: error: ‘%s’ directive output may be truncated writing \
        up to 99 bytes into a region of size 89 [-Werror=format-truncation=]
    snprintf(failure, sizeof failure, "unexpected %s", out);

The gcc docs says:

 To avoid the warning either use a bigger buffer or handle the
 function's return value which indicates whether or not its output
 has been truncated.

Given that all these warnings are harmless, because the code either
properly fails due to uncomplete file path or we don't care for
truncated output at all, I'm changing all those snprintf() calls to
scnprintf(), which actually 'checks' for the snprint return value so the
gcc stays silent.

Following commit:
  commit 509051ea8427 ("perf record: Rename --no-delay to --no-buffering")

removed '-D' option and renamed --no-delay into --no-buffering.
Fixing that in the attr tests.

Pull perf/core improvements from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

User visible:

  * Improve 'perf probe' error messages, moving some diagnostic messages to
    only appear in --verbose mode and fixing up some error reporting related
    to variables and struct members. (Masami Hiramatsu)

  * Reflow 'perf timechart' man page. (Stanislav Fomichev)

Developer stuff:

  * Be more precise when reporting missing libraries in a static tool build.
    (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  * Show error messages from the multiple make invoked from 'make build-test'.

<title>Revert "perf: Disable PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 support"</title>

This reverts commit 3090ffb5a2515990182f3f55b0688a7817325488.

Re-enable the mmap2 interface as we will have a user soon.

Since things have changed since perf disabled mmap2, small tweaks
to the revert had to be done:

o commit 9d4ecc88 forced (n!=8) to become (n&lt;7)
o a new libunwind test needed updating to use mmap2 interface
