We are allocating disasm_line object in annotation_line__new() instead
of disasm_line__new(). Similarly annotation_line__delete() is actually
freeing disasm_line object as well. This complexity is because of
privsize.  But we don't need privsize anymore so get rid of privsize and
simplify disasm_line allocation and freeing code.

privsize is passed as 0 from all the symbol__annotate() callers.
Remove it from argument list.

perf default config set by user in [annotate] section is totally ignored
by annotate code. Fix it.

Before:

  $ ./perf config
  annotate.hide_src_code=true
  annotate.show_nr_jumps=true
  annotate.show_nr_samples=true

  $ ./perf annotate shash
         │    unsigned h = 0;
         │      movl   $0x0,-0xc(%rbp)
         │    while (*s)
         │    ↓ jmp    44
         │    h = 65599 * h + *s++;
   11.33 │24:   mov    -0xc(%rbp),%eax
   43.50 │      imul   $0x1003f,%eax,%ecx
         │      mov    -0x18(%rbp),%rax

After:

         │        movl   $0x0,-0xc(%rbp)
         │      ↓ jmp    44
       1 │1 24:   mov    -0xc(%rbp),%eax
       4 │        imul   $0x1003f,%eax,%ecx
         │        mov    -0x18(%rbp),%rax

Note that we have removed show_nr_samples and show_total_period from
annotation_options because they are not used. Instead of them we use
symbol_conf.show_nr_samples and symbol_conf.show_total_period.

Committer testing:

Using 'perf annotate --stdio2' to use the TUI rendering but emitting the output to stdio:

  # perf config
  #
  # perf config annotate.hide_src_code=true
  # perf config
  annotate.hide_src_code=true
  #
  # perf config annotate.show_nr_jumps=true
  # perf config annotate.show_nr_samples=true
  # perf config
  annotate.hide_src_code=true
  annotate.show_nr_jumps=true
  annotate.show_nr_samples=true
  #

<title>perf annotate: Fix --show-total-period for tui/stdio2</title>

<content type='text'>
perf annotate --show-total-period does not really show total period.

The reason is we have two separate variables for the same purpose.

One is in symbol_conf.show_total_period and another is
annotation_options.show_total_period.

We save command line option in symbol_conf.show_total_period but uses
annotation_option.show_total_period while rendering tui/stdio2 browser.

Though, we copy symbol_conf.show_total_period to
annotation__default_options.show_total_period but that is not really
effective as we don't use annotation__default_options once we copy
default options to dynamic variable annotate.opts in cmd_annotate().

Instead of all these complication, keep only one variable and use it all
over. symbol_conf.show_total_period is used by perf report/top as well.
So let's kill annotation_options.show_total_period.

On a side note, I've kept annotation_options.show_total_period
definition because it's still used by perf-config code. Follow up patch
to fix perf-config for annotate will remove
annotation_options.show_total_period.

The objdump utility has useful --prefix / --prefix-strip options to
allow changing source code file names hardcoded into executables' debug
info. Add options to 'perf report', 'perf top' and 'perf annotate',
which are then passed to objdump.

  $ mkdir foo
  $ echo 'main() { for (;;); }' &gt; foo/foo.c
  $ gcc -g foo/foo.c
  foo/foo.c:1:1: warning: return type defaults to ‘int’ [-Wimplicit-int]
      1 | main() { for (;;); }
        | ^~~~
  $ perf record ./a.out
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.230 MB perf.data (5721 samples) ]
  $ mv foo bar
  $ perf annotate
  &lt;does not show source code&gt;
  $ perf annotate --prefix=/home/ak/lsrc/git/bar --prefix-strip=5
  &lt;does show source code&gt;

<title>perf annotate: Pass a 'map_symbol' in places receiving a pair of 'map' and 'symbol' pointers</title>

We are already passing things like:

  symbol__annotate(ms-&gt;sym, ms-&gt;map, ...)

So shorten the signature of such functions to receive the 'map_symbol'
pointer.

This also paves the way to having the 'struct map_groups' pointer in the
'struct map_symbol' so that we can get rid of 'struct map'-&gt;groups.

<title>perf diff: Report noisy for cycles diff</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch prints the stddev and hist for the cycles diff of program
block. It can help us to understand if the cycles is noisy or not.

This patch is inspired by Andi Kleen's patch:

  https://lwn.net/Articles/600471/

We create new option '--cycles-hist'.

Example:

  perf record -b ./div
  perf record -b ./div
  perf diff -c cycles

 Rebase to perf/core branch

 v7:
 ---
 1. v6 got Jiri's ACK.
 2. Rebase to latest perf/core branch.

 v6:
 ---
 1. Jiri provides better code for using data__hpp_register() in ui_init().
    Use this code in v6.

 v5:
 ---
 1. Refine the use of data__hpp_register() in ui_init() according to
    Jiri's suggestion.

 v4:
 ---
 1. Rename the new option from '--noisy' to '--cycles-hist'
 2. Remove the option '-n'.
 3. Only update the spark value and stats when '--cycles-hist' is enabled.
 4. Remove the code of printing '..'.

 v3:
 ---
 1. Move the histogram to a separate column
 2. Move the svals[] out of struct stats

 v2:
 ---
 Jiri got a compile error,

  CC       builtin-diff.o
  builtin-diff.c: In function ‘compute_cycles_diff’:
  builtin-diff.c:712:10: error: taking the absolute value of unsigned type ‘u64’ {aka ‘long unsigned int’} has no effect [-Werror=absolute-value]

 Because the result of u64 - u64 is still u64. Now we change the type of
 cycles_spark[] to s64.

This patch prints the stddev and hist for the cycles diff of program
block. It can help us to understand if the cycles is noisy or not.

This patch is inspired by Andi Kleen's patch:

  https://lwn.net/Articles/600471/

We create new option '--cycles-hist'.

Example:

  perf record -b ./div
  perf record -b ./div
  perf diff -c cycles

Return errno when open_memstream() fails and add two new speciall error
codes for when an invalid, non BPF file or one without BTF is passed to
symbol__disassemble_bpf(), so that its callers can rely on
symbol__strerror_disassemble() to convert that to a human readable error
message that can help figure out what is wrong, with hints even.

They are called from symbol__annotate() and to propagate errors that can
help understand the problem make them return what
symbol__strerror_disassemble() known, i.e. errno codes and other
annotation specific errors in a special, out of errnos, range.

Move nr_entries count from 'struct perf' to into perf_evlist struct.

Committer notes:

Fix tools/perf/arch/s390/util/auxtrace.c case. And also the comment in
tools/perf/util/annotate.h.
