BPF program load time is reported from the kernel relative to boot time.
If conversion to wall clock does not take nanosecond parts into account,
the load time reported by bpftool may differ by one second from run to
run.  This means JSON object reported by bpftool for a program will
randomly change.

Commit b04df400c302 ("tools/bpftool: add perf subcommand")
introduced bpftool subcommand perf to query bpf program
kuprobe and tracepoint attachments.

The perf subcommand will first test whether bpf subcommand
BPF_TASK_FD_QUERY is supported in kernel or not. It does it
by opening a file with argv[0] and feeds the file descriptor
and current task pid to the kernel for querying.

Such an approach won't work if the argv[0] cannot be opened
successfully in the current directory. This is especially
true when bpftool is accessible through PATH env variable.
The error below reflects the open failure for file argv[0]
at home directory.

  [yhs@localhost ~]$ which bpftool
  /usr/local/sbin/bpftool
  [yhs@localhost ~]$ bpftool perf
  Error: perf_query_support: No such file or directory

To fix the issue, let us open root directory ("/")
which exists in every linux system. With the fix, the
error message will correctly reflect the permission issue.

  [yhs@localhost ~]$ which bpftool
  /usr/local/sbin/bpftool
  [yhs@localhost ~]$ bpftool perf
  Error: perf_query_support: Operation not permitted
  HINT: non root or kernel doesn't support TASK_FD_QUERY

Range is 0-7, not 0-9, otherwise parser silently excludes it from the
strtol() rather than throwing an error.

The new command "bpftool perf [show | list]" will traverse
all processes under /proc, and if any fd is associated
with a perf event, it will print out related perf event
information. Documentation is also added.

Below is an example to show the results using bcc commands.
Running the following 4 bcc commands:
  kprobe:     trace.py '__x64_sys_nanosleep'
  kretprobe:  trace.py 'r::__x64_sys_nanosleep'
  tracepoint: trace.py 't:syscalls:sys_enter_nanosleep'
  uprobe:     trace.py 'p:/home/yhs/a.out:main'

<title>tools: bpftool: add delimiters to multi-function JITed dumps</title>

<id>f7f62c7134288a704f90b137097e1ee689ff25ab</id>
<content type='text'>
This splits up the contiguous JITed dump obtained via the bpf
system call into more relatable chunks for each function in
the program. If the kernel symbols corresponding to these are
known, they are printed in the header for each JIT image dump
otherwise the masked start address is printed.

Before applying this patch:

  # bpftool prog dump jited id 1

     1:	mov    %rsp,%rbp
  ...
    70:	leaveq

    73:	mov    %rsp,%rbp
  ...
    dd:	leaveq
    de:	retq

  # bpftool -p prog dump jited id 1

This splits up the contiguous JITed dump obtained via the bpf
system call into more relatable chunks for each function in
the program. If the kernel symbols corresponding to these are
known, they are printed in the header for each JIT image dump
otherwise the masked start address is printed.

Before applying this patch:

     1:	mov    %rsp,%rbp
  ...
    70:	leaveq

    73:	mov    %rsp,%rbp

    de:	retq

  # bpftool -p prog dump jited id 1

<title>tools: bpftool: resolve calls without using imm field</title>

<id>f84192ee00b7d8b3c38545d3a61d4191f80cc81a</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, we resolve the callee's address for a JITed function
call by using the imm field of the call instruction as an offset
from __bpf_call_base. If bpf_jit_kallsyms is enabled, we further
use this address to get the callee's kernel symbol's name.

For some architectures, such as powerpc64, the imm field is not
large enough to hold this offset. So, instead of assigning this
offset to the imm field, the verifier now assigns the subprog
id. Also, a list of kernel symbol addresses for all the JITed
functions is provided in the program info. We now use the imm
field as an index for this list to lookup a callee's symbol's
address and resolve its name.

This adds the SOCKHASH map type to bpftools so that we get correct
pretty printing.

There are two copies of event reading loop - in bpftool and
trace_helpers "library".  Consolidate them and move the code
to libbpf.  Return codes from trace_helpers are kept, but
renamed to include LIBBPF prefix.
