tools lib api: Add str_error_c to libapi

2016-07-27T20:16:43+00:00

Because it uses that function, which would lead every tool using it
to need to link against tools/lib/str_error_r.o.

This fixes building tools/vm/, that links with libapi.

perf symbols: Add Rust demangling

2016-07-12T19:12:38+00:00

Rust demangling is another step after bfd demangling. Add a diagnosis to
identify mangled Rust symbols based on the hash that the Rust mangler appends
as the last path component, as well as other characteristics.  Add a demangler
to reconstruct the original symbol.

Committer notes:

How I tested it:

Enabled COPR on Fedora 24 and then installed the 'rust-binary' package,
with it:

  $ cat src/main.rs
  fn main() {
      println!("Hello, world!");
  }
  $ cat Cargo.toml
  [package]

  name = "hello_world"
  version = "0.0.1"
  authors = [ "Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo " ]

  $ perf record cargo bench
   Compiling hello_world v0.0.1 (file:///home/acme/projects/hello_world)
     Running target/release/hello_world-d4b9dab4b2a47d75

  running 0 tests

  test result: ok. 0 passed; 0 failed; 0 ignored; 0 measured

perf tools: Uninline scnprintf() and vscnprint()

2016-07-12T18:20:24+00:00

They were in tools/include/linux/kernel.h, requiring that it in turn
included stdio.h, which is way too heavy.

tools: Introduce str_error_r()

2016-07-12T18:19:47+00:00

The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that
returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else.

But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the
function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided
buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that
instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine
Linux, where musl libc is used.

So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU
interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that
users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is
returned.

perf tools: Refactor code to move call path handling out of thread-stack

2016-05-06T16:00:43+00:00

Move the call path handling code out of thread-stack.c and
thread-stack.h to allow other components that are not part of
thread-stack to create call paths.

Summary:

- Create call-path.c and call-path.h and add them to the build.

- Move all call path related code out of thread-stack.c and thread-stack.h
  and into call-path.c and call-path.h.

- A small subset of structures and functions are now visible through
  call-path.h, which is required for thread-stack.c to continue to
  compile.

This change is a prerequisite for subsequent patches in this change set
and by itself contains no user-visible changes.
