perf header: Fix up argument to ctime()

Reducing this noise when cross building to the Android NDK:

  util/header.c:2710:45: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of 'ctime' differ in signedness [-Wpointer-sign]

perf header: Fix unchecked usage of strncpy()

2018-12-17T17:59:08+00:00

The strncpy() function may leave the destination string buffer
unterminated, better use strlcpy() that we have a __weak fallback
implementation for systems without it.

This fixes this warning on an Alpine Linux Edge system with gcc 8.2:

  util/header.c: In function 'perf_event__synthesize_event_update_name':
  util/header.c:3625:2: error: 'strncpy' output truncated before terminating nul copying as many bytes from a string as its length [-Werror=stringop-truncation]
    strncpy(ev->data, evsel->name, len);
    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  util/header.c:3618:15: note: length computed here
    size_t len = strlen(evsel->name);
                 ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

perf tools: Fix diverse comment typos

2018-12-17T17:56:47+00:00

Go over the tools/ files that are maintained in Arnaldo's tree and
fix common typos: half of them were in comments, the other half
in JSON files.

No change in functionality intended.

Committer notes:

This was split from a larger patch as there are code that is,
additionally, maintained outside the kernel tree, so to ease
cherry-picking and/or backporting, split this into multiple patches.

Just typos in comments, no need to backport, reducing the possibility of
possible backporting artifacts.

tools lib traceevent, perf tools: Rename 'struct tep_event_format' to 'struct tep_event'

2018-12-17T17:56:02+00:00

In order to make libtraceevent into a proper library, variables, data
structures and functions require a unique prefix to prevent name space
conflicts.

This renames 'struct tep_event_format' to 'struct tep_event', which
describes more closely the purpose of the struct.

perf pmu: Move *_cpuid_str() weak functions to header.c

2018-11-22T01:39:59+00:00

The weak functions, strcmp_cpuid_str() and get_cpuid_str(), are defined
in pmu.c.

Most of the cpuid related functions, including *_cpuid_str()'s
declaration and platform specific definition, are in header.c/h.

To make the declaration and definition of all cpuid related functions in
a consistent place, move the weak functions to header.c.

There is no functional change.

perf record: Encode -k clockid frequency into Perf trace

2018-10-18T14:16:38+00:00

Store -k clockid frequency into Perf trace to enable timestamps
derived metrics conversion into wall clock time on reporting stage.

Below is the example of perf report output:

  tools/perf/perf record -k raw -- ../../matrix/linux/matrix.gcc
  ...
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 31.222 MB perf.data (818054 samples) ]

perf tools: Remove perf_tool from event_op2

2018-09-19T13:25:10+00:00

Now that we keep a perf_tool pointer inside perf_session, there's no
need to have a perf_tool argument in the event_op2 callback. Remove it.
