ASan reports several memory leaks when running:

  # perf test "82: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames"

many of which are related to session-&gt;tevent.

This patch will solve this problem, then next patch will fix the
remaining memory leaks in 'perf script'.

This bug is due to a missing deallocation of the trace_event data
strutures.

This patch adds the missing trace_event__cleanup() in
perf_session__delete().

ASan reports a memory leak caused by evlist not being deleted on exit in
perf-report, perf-script and perf-data.
The problem is caused by evlist-&gt;session not being deleted, which is
allocated in perf_session__read_header, called in perf_session__new if
perf_data is in read mode.
In case of write mode, the session-&gt;evlist is filled by the caller.
This patch solves the problem by calling evlist__delete in
perf_session__delete if perf_data is in read mode.

Changes in v2:
 - call evlist__delete from within perf_session__delete

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210621234317.235545-1-rickyman7@gmail.com/

ASan report follows:

<title>perf session: Correct buffer copying when peeking events</title>

<content type='text'>
When peeking an event, it has a short path and a long path.  The short
path uses the session pointer "one_mmap_addr" to directly fetch the
event; and the long path needs to read out the event header and the
following event data from file and fill into the buffer pointer passed
through the argument "buf".

The issue is in the long path that it copies the event header and event
data into the same destination address which pointer "buf", this means
the event header is overwritten.  We are just lucky to run into the
short path in most cases, so we don't hit the issue in the long path.

This patch adds the offset "hdr_sz" to the pointer "buf" when copying
the event data, so that it can reserve the event header which can be
used properly by its caller.

When there is a need to modify only timestamps, it is much simpler and
quicker to do it to the existing file rather than re-write all the
contents.

In preparation for that, add the ability to modify the input file in place.
In practice that just means making the file descriptor and mmaps writable.

'data' field in perf_record_cpu_map_data struct is 16-bit
wide and so should be swapped using bswap_16().

'nr' field in perf_record_stat_config struct should be
swapped before being used for size calculation.

<title>perf session: Dump PERF_RECORD_TIME_CONV event</title>

Now perf tool uses the common stub function process_event_op2_stub() for
dumping TIME_CONV event, thus it doesn't output the clock parameters
contained in the event.

This patch adds the callback function for dumping the hardware clock
parameters in TIME_CONV event.

<content type='text'>
Since commit d110162cafc8 ("perf tsc: Support cap_user_time_short for
event TIME_CONV"), the event PERF_RECORD_TIME_CONV has extended the data
structure for clock parameters.

To be backwards-compatible, this patch adds a dedicated swap operation
for the event PERF_RECORD_TIME_CONV, based on checking if the event
contains field "time_cycles", it can support both for the old and new
event formats.

<title>perf report: Add --skip-empty option to suppress 0 event stat</title>

<id>2775de0b115a6ffab7882c45c755005ee0ac0122</id>
<content type='text'>
To make the output more readable, I think it's better to remove 0's in
the output.  Also the dummy event has no event stats so it just wasts
the space.  Let's use the --skip-empty option to suppress it.

  $ perf report --stat --skip-empty

  Aggregated stats:
             TOTAL events:      16530
              MMAP events:        226
              COMM events:       1596
              EXIT events:          2
          THROTTLE events:        121
        UNTHROTTLE events:        117

To make the output more readable, I think it's better to remove 0's in
the output.  Also the dummy event has no event stats so it just wasts
the space.  Let's use the --skip-empty option to suppress it.

  $ perf report --stat --skip-empty

  Aggregated stats:
             TOTAL events:      16530
              MMAP events:        226
              COMM events:       1596

<title>perf tools: Support pipeline stage cycles for powerpc</title>

The pipeline stage cycles details can be recorded on powerpc from the
contents of Performance Monitor Unit (PMU) registers. On ISA v3.1
platform, sampling registers exposes the cycles spent in different
pipeline stages. Patch adds perf tools support to present two of the
cycle counter information along with memory latency (weight).

Re-use the field 'ins_lat' for storing the first pipeline stage cycle.
This is stored in 'var2_w' field of 'perf_sample_weight'.

Add a new field 'p_stage_cyc' to store the second pipeline stage cycle
which is stored in 'var3_w' field of perf_sample_weight.

Add new sort function 'Pipeline Stage Cycle' and include this in
default_mem_sort_order[]. This new sort function may be used to denote
some other pipeline stage in another architecture. So add this to list
of sort entries that can have dynamic header string.
