<title>perf symbols: Fix slowness due to -ffunction-section</title>

<id>1e6285699b3034e6f4d1f091edd46d717580bf7c</id>

Perf can take minutes to parse an image when -ffunction-section is used.
This is especially true with the kernel image when it is compiled this
way, which is the arm64 default since the patcheset "Enable deadcode
elimination at link time".

Perf organize maps using a rbtree. Whenever perf finds a new symbols, it
first searches this rbtree for the map it belongs to, by strcmp()'aring
section names.  When it finds the map with the right name, it uses it to
add the symbol. With a usual image there aren't so many maps but when
using -ffunction-section there's basically one map per function.  With
the kernel image that's north of 40,000 maps. For most symbols perf has
to parses the entire rbtree to eventually create a new map and add it.
Consequently perf spends most of the time browsing a rbtree that keeps
getting larger.

This performance fix introduces a secondary rbtree that indexes maps
based on the section name.

This function splits and removes overlapping areas.

Maps in tree are ordered by start address thus we could find first
overlap and stop if next map does not overlap.

When kernel symbols are derived from /proc/kallsyms only (not using
vmlinux or /proc/kcore) map_groups__split_kallsyms() is used. However
that function makes assumptions that are not true with entry trampoline
symbols. For now, remove the entry trampoline symbols at that point, as
they are no longer needed at that point.

Since we do not have split symtabs anymore, no need to have explicit
find_kernel_function variants, use the find_kernel_symbol ones.

Remove the split of symbol tables for data (MAP__VARIABLE) and for
functions (MAP__FUNCTION), its unneeded and there were various places
doing two lookups to find a symbol, so simplify this.

We still will consider only the symbols that matched the filters in
place, i.e. see the (elf_(sec,sym)|symbol_type)__filter() routines in
the patch, just so that we consider only the same symbols as before,
to reduce the possibility of regressions.

All the tests on 50-something build environments, in varios versions
of lots of distros and cross build environments were performed without
build regressions, as usual with all pull requests the other tests were
also performed: 'perf test' and 'make -C tools/perf build-test'.

Also this was done at a great granularity so that regressions can be
bisected more easily.

Only the symbol core needs to use that, so provide a __ variant for that
case, that will end up removed when we ditch the MAP__ split.
