The evsel__handle_error_quirks() is to fixup invalid event attributes on
some architecture based on the error code.  Currently it's only used for
AMD to disable precise_ip not to use IBS which has more restrictions.

But the commit c33aea446bf555ab changed call evsel__precise_ip_fallback
for any errors so there's no difference with the above function.  To
make matter worse, it caused a problem with branch stack on Zen3.

The IBS doesn't support branch stack so it should use a regular core
PMU event.  The default event is set precise_max and it starts with 3.
And evsel__precise_ip_fallback() tries with it and reduces the level one
by one.  At last it tries with 0 but it also failed on Zen3 since the
branch stack is not supported for the cycles event.

At this point, evsel__precise_ip_fallback() restores the original
precise_ip value (3) in the hope that it can succeed with other modifier
(like exclude_kernel).  Then evsel__handle_error_quirks() see it has
precise_ip != 0 and make it retry with 0.  This created an infinite
loop.

Before:

  $ perf record -b -vv |&amp; grep removing
  removing precise_ip on AMD
  removing precise_ip on AMD
  removing precise_ip on AMD

  removing precise_ip on AMD
  removing precise_ip on AMD

  ...

After:

  $ perf record -b true
  Error:
  Failure to open event 'cycles:P' on PMU 'cpu' which will be removed.
  Invalid event (cycles:P) in per-thread mode, enable system wide with '-a'.
  Error:

While testing building with libunwind (using LIBUNWIND=1) in various
arches I noticed a problem on arm64, on an rpi5 system, a missing close
parens in a change related to dso__data_get_fd() usage, fix it.

<title>perf bpf-filter: Fix a parsing error with comma</title>

The previous change to support cgroup filters introduced a bug that
pathname can include commas.  It confused the lexer to treat an item and
the trailing comma as a single token.  And it resulted in a parse error:

  $ sudo perf record -e cycles:P --filter 'period &gt; 0, ip &gt; 64' -- true
  perf_bpf_filter: Error: Unexpected item: 0,
  perf_bpf_filter: syntax error, unexpected BFT_ERROR, expecting BFT_NUM

   Usage: perf record [&lt;options&gt;] [&lt;command&gt;]
      or: perf record [&lt;options&gt;] -- &lt;command&gt; [&lt;options&gt;]

          --filter &lt;filter&gt;
                            event filter

It should get "0" and "," separately.

An easiest fix would be to remove "," from the possible pathname
characters.  As it's for cgroup names, probably ok to assume it won't
have commas in the pathname.

I found that the existing BPF filtering test didn't have any complex
filter condition with commas.  Let's update the group filter test which
is supposed to test filter combinations like this.

<title>perf report: Fix a memory leak for perf_env on AMD</title>

The env.pmu_mapping can be leaked when it reads data from a pipe on AMD.
For a pipe data, it reads the header data including pmu_mapping from
PERF_RECORD_HEADER_FEATURE runtime.  But it's already set in:

  perf_session__new()
    __perf_session__new()
      evlist__init_trace_event_sample_raw()
        evlist__has_amd_ibs()
          perf_env__nr_pmu_mappings()

Then it'll overwrite that when it processes the HEADER_FEATURE record.
Here's a report from address sanitizer.

  Direct leak of 2689 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:
    #0 0x7fed8f814596 in realloc ../../../../src/libsanitizer/lsan/lsan_interceptors.cpp:98

If MYPY=1 is passed to the build then run mypy over python code in
perf. Unlike shellcheck this isn't default on as there are currently
too many errors.

Rename TEST_LOGS to SHELL_TEST_LOGS as later changes will add more
kinds of test logs.
Minor comment tweak in Makefile.perf as more than just test shell
tests are checked.

When decoding the "id" (aka system call number) for MIPS ignore values
greater-than 1000.

Switch to use the lookup table containing all architectures rather
than tables matching the perf binary.

This fixes perf trace when executed on a 32-bit i386 binary on an
x86-64 machine. Note in the following the system call names of the
32-bit i386 binary as seen by an x86-64 perf.
