This is one more remnant of the BUILD_NONDISTRO series to make building
with binutils-devel opt-in due to license incompatibility.
In this case just the references at link time were still in place, which
make building the test-all.bin file fail, which wasn't detected before
probably because the last test was done with binutils-devel available,
doh.
Now:
$ rpm -q binutils-devel
package binutils-devel is not installed
$ file /tmp/build/perf-tools/feature/test-all.bin

With commit f0d0f978f3f5830a ("perf header: Don't write empty BPF/BTF
info"), the write_bpf_( prog_info() | btf() ) functions exit without
writing anything if env->bpf_prog.(infos| btfs)_cnt is zero.
process_bpf_( prog_info() | btf() ), however, still expect a "count"
value to exist in the data file. If btf information is empty, for
example, process_bpf_btf will read garbage or some other data as the
number of btf nodes in the data file. As a result, the data file will
not be processed correctly.
Instead, write the count to the data file and exit if it is zero.

This adds test cases to verify the precise ip fallback logic:
- If the system supports precise ip, for an event given with the maximum
precision level, it should be able to decrease precise_ip to find a
supported level.
- The same fallback behavior should also work in more complex scenarios,
such as event groups or when PEBS is involved
Additional fallback tests, such as those covering missing feature cases,
can be added in the future.

One of my concern in the perf stat output was the alignment in the
metrics and shadow stats. I think it missed to calculate the basic
output length using COUNTS_LEN and EVNAME_LEN but missed to add the
unit length like "msec" and surround 2 spaces. I'm not sure why it's
not printed below though.
But anyway, now it shows correctly aligned metric output.

The logic to skip output of a default metric line was firing on
Alderlake and not displaying 'TopdownL1 (cpu_atom)'. Remove the
need_full_name check as it is equivalent to the different PMU test in
the cases we care about, merge the 'if's and flip the evsel of the PMU
test. The 'if' is now basically saying, if the output matches the last
printed output then skip the output.

Now that the metrics are encoded in common json the hard coded
printing means the metrics are shown twice. Remove the hard coded
version.
This means that when specifying events, and those events correspond to
a hard coded metric, the metric will no longer be displayed. The
metric will be displayed if the metric is requested. Due to the adhoc
printing in the previous approach it was often found frustrating, the
new approach avoids this.
The default perf stat output on an alderlake now looks like:

The metric format option isn't properly supported. This change
improves that by making the sample events update the counts of an
evsel, where the shadow metric code expects to read the values. To
support printing metrics, metrics need to be found. This is done on
the first attempt to print a metric. Every metric is parsed and then
the evsels in the metric's evlist compared to those in perf script
using the perf_event_attr type and config. If the metric matches then
it is added for printing. As an event in the perf script's evlist may
have >1 metric id, or different leader for aggregation, the first
metric matched will be displayed in those cases.
An example use is:
```
$ perf record -a -e '{instructions,cpu-cycles}:S' -a -- sleep 1
$ perf script -F period,metric
...
867817
metric: 0.30 insn per cycle
125394
metric: 0.04 insn per cycle
313516

time. The metrics added are CPUs_utilized, cs_per_second,
migrations_per_second, page_faults_per_second, insn_per_cycle,
stalled_cycles_per_instruction, frontend_cycles_idle,
backend_cycles_idle, cycles_frequency, branch_frequency and
branch_miss_rate based on the shadow metric definitions.

Rather than using the first evsel in the matched events, try to find
the least shared non-tool evsel. The aim is to pick the first evsel
that typifies the metric within the list of metrics.
This addresses an issue where Default metric group metrics may lose
their counter value due to how the stat displaying hides counters for
default event/metric output.
For a metricgroup like TopdownL1 on an Intel Alderlake the change is,
before there are 4 events with metrics:

Add an ability to be able to compose perf_tools, by having one perform
an action and then calling a delegate. Currently the perf_tools have
if-then-elses setting the callback and then if-then-elses within the
callback. Understanding the behavior is complex as it is in two places
and logic for numerous operations, within things like perf inject, is
interwoven. By chaining perf_tools together based on command line

Getting context for what a tool is doing, such as the perf_inject
instance, using container_of the tool is a common pattern in the
code. This isn't possible event_op2, event_op3 and event_op4 callbacks
as the tool isn't passed. Add the argument and then fix function
signatures to match. As tools maybe reading a tool from somewhere
else, change that code to use the passed in tool.

Recent change on enabling --buildid-mmap by default brought an issue
with build-id handling. With build-ID in MMAP2 records, we don't need
to save the build-ID table in the header of a perf data file.
But the actual file contents still need to be cached in the debug
directory for annotation etc. Split the build-ID header processing and
caching and make sure perf record to save hit DSOs in the build-ID cache
by moving perf_session__cache_build_ids() to the end of the record__

Searching all event names is slower now that legacy names are
included. Add a cache to avoid long iterative searches. Note, the
cache isn't cleaned up and is as such a memory leak, however, globally
reachable leaks like this aren't treated as leaks by leak sanitizer.

The syscalls_sys_{enter,exit} map in augmented_raw_syscalls.bpf.c has
max entries of 512. Usually syscall numbers are smaller than this but
x86 has x32 ABI where syscalls start from 512.
That makes trace__init_syscalls_bpf_prog_array_maps() fail in the middle
of the loop when it accesses those keys. As the loop iteration is not
ordered by syscall numbers anymore, the failure can affect non-x32
syscalls.
Let's increase the map size to 1024 so that it can handle those ABIs
too. While most systems won't need this, increasing the size will be
safer for potential future changes.

The --overwrite option implies --tail-synthesize, which collects non-sample
events reflecting the system status when recording finishes. However, when
evsel opening fails (e.g., unsupported event 'cycles-ct'), session->evlist
is not initialized and remains NULL. The code unconditionally calls
record__synthesize() in the error path, which iterates through the NULL
evlist pointer and causes a segfault.
To fix it, move the record__synthesize() call inside the error check block, so
it's only called when there was no error during recording, ensuring that evlist
is properly initialized.

On some machines, it caused troubles when it tried to find kernel
symbols. I think it's because kernel modules and kallsyms are messed
up during load and split.
Basically we want to make sure the kernel map is loaded and the code has
it in the lock_contention_read(). But recently we added more lookups in
the lock_contention_prepare() which is called before _read().
Also the kernel map (kallsyms) may not be the first one in the group
like on ARM. Let's use machine__kernel_map() rather than just loading
the first map.
