This makes 'perf top' abort in some cases, and the right fix will
involve surgery that is too much to do at this stage, so revert for now
and fix it in the next merge window.

This reverts commit 2d6b74baa7147251c30a46c4996e8cc224aa2dc5.

ASan reports a memory leak of nsinfo during the execution of

  # perf test "31: Lookup mmap thread"

The leak is caused by a refcounted variable being replaced without
dropping the refcount.

This patch makes sure that the refcnt of nsinfo is decreased whenever a
refcounted variable is replaced with a new value.

Although 'err' has been initialized to -ENOMEM, but it will be reassigned
by the "err = unwind__prepare_access(...)" statement in the for loop. So
that, the value of 'err' is unknown when map__clone() failed.

Passing build_id object to build_id__sprintf function, so it can operate
with the proper size of build id.

This will create proper md5 build id readable names,
like following:

  a50e350e97c43b4708d09bcd85ebfff7

instead of:

Replace build_id byte array with struct build_id object and all the code
that references it.

The objective is to carry size together with build id array, so it's
better to keep both together.

This is preparatory change for following patches, and there's no
functional change.

<title>perf inject: Do not load map/dso when injecting build-id</title>

<id>e7b60c5a0c4b9c02fa3b471f8d5edb4989ebdf60</id>
<content type='text'>
No need to load symbols in a DSO when injecting build-id.  I guess the
reason was to check the DSO is a special file like anon files.  Use some
helper functions in map.c to check them before reading build-id.  Also
pass sample event's cpumode to a new build-id event.

It brought a speedup in the benchmark of 25 -&gt; 21 msec on my laptop.
Also the memory usage (Max RSS) went down by ~200 KB.

  # Running 'internals/inject-build-id' benchmark:
    Average build-id injection took: 21.389 msec (+- 0.138 msec)
    Average time per event: 2.097 usec (+- 0.014 usec)
    Average memory usage: 8225 KB (+- 0 KB)

Committer notes:

Before:

  $ perf stat -r5 perf bench internals inject-build-id &gt; /dev/null

No need to load symbols in a DSO when injecting build-id.  I guess the
reason was to check the DSO is a special file like anon files.  Use some
helper functions in map.c to check them before reading build-id.  Also
pass sample event's cpumode to a new build-id event.

It brought a speedup in the benchmark of 25 -&gt; 21 msec on my laptop.
Also the memory usage (Max RSS) went down by ~200 KB.

  # Running 'internals/inject-build-id' benchmark:
    Average build-id injection took: 21.389 msec (+- 0.138 msec)
    Average time per event: 2.097 usec (+- 0.014 usec)
    Average memory usage: 8225 KB (+- 0 KB)

<title>perf tools: Add bpf image check to __map__is_kmodule</title>

<id>830fadfd954c6782b7a8a2461c76a568c7153b9a</id>
<content type='text'>
When validating kcore modules the do_validate_kcore_modules function
checks on every kernel module dso against modules record. The
__map__is_kmodule check is used to get only kernel module dso objects
through.

Currently the bpf images are slipping through the check and making the
validation to fail, so report falls back from kcore usage to kallsyms.

Adding __map__is_bpf_image check for bpf image and adding it to
__map__is_kmodule check.

Fixes: 3c29d4483e85 ("perf annotate: Add basic support for bpf_image")

<title>perf tools: Rename 'enum dso_kernel_type' to 'enum dso_space_type'</title>

Rename enum dso_kernel_type to enum dso_space_type, which seems like
better fit.

Committer notes:

This is used with 'struct dso'-&gt;kernel, which once was a boolean, so
DSO_SPACE__USER is zero, !zero means some sort of kernel space, be it
the host kernel space or a guest kernel space.
